Quite often the backspace and enter keys don't work (oddly, in Windows, Ubuntu and even the GRUB menu. should i assume something is broken, and if so, how do i get it fixed? (btw - backspace has worked 3 times and not worked 5 times just while typing this). <volvoguy> perhaps i should email Jane Silber (is she still our Canonical contact?), but I wanted to ask here first. <jesper> Hi. <jesper> Just upgraded my Thinkpad X30 to Edgy, but it lost the wirelessconnection. <jesper> Any suggestions? <jesper> Reports "no wireless extensions" on all devices in iwconfig <jesper> according to lspci is it a Prism 2.5 card. * Starting logfile irclogs/ubuntu-laptop.log <Unimatrix9> hi there <Unimatrix9> slow life here? <Unimatrix9> who has got wich kind/brand laptop? <Unimatrix9> running ubuntu...? <tunnelrat> Hey I am new here, and I am installing Ubuntu to try...

I can't get it to load on the OpenGL.. It keeps using Mesa Project...... <tritium> crimsun: have you tried using the line out jack on a docking station with your Thinkpad? I tried, but sound still comes out of the laptop speakers. <crimsun> I don't have a dock. <tritium> Ah, okay. <crimsun> I hope it's not jack sense coming back to bite me in the arse. <tritium> dunno <tritium> was wondering about jack sense, though <crimsun> if it works between hp/speakers, then it's unlikely to be jack sense <crimsun> make sure your thinkpad is running the latest bios for that model <crimsun> I used to have similar problems on suspend until I updated to a newer bios <tritium> It should be the latest. I'll see what more I can find out. <jldugger> what audio chipset does the thinkpad use? <tritium> I don't recall. I left it at work, so I can't verify. <crimsun> what model thinkpad is it? <jldugger> well, ive got a toshiba, i was wondering if he had Intel HDA (and if that was supposed to be fixed in HDA) <crimsun> I've backported all the HDA fixes that exist in addition to a dozen that are in upstream's queue <tritium> crimsun: It's a T43p <tritium> 2668G7U, if I recall <crimsun> same codec I have, then. <crimsun> snd_intel8x0 driver <tritium> cool <crimsun> ad1981b codec <jldugger> what package would a jack sense bug fall under, usually? <crimsun> linux-source-2.6.1x <crimsun> there aren't many jack sense bugs remaining <crimsun> the ones that are still fluttering about are doing so because there are more serious pin-out issues <jldugger> hmm =( <crimsun> some are resolved by bios updates <tritium> If not jack sense, what might be my problem? <tritium> bios aside, since I am fairly certain it's the latest <crimsun> tritium: dock interaction <jldugger> i notice that my tecra m7 has some wierd volume state persistance, where setting the volume to mute in windows will mute the sound in linux <crimsun> right, some machines do that <jldugger> that seems wierd to me, that the hardware preserves state like that across boots <crimsun> across warm boots? That's not at all surprising. <jldugger> define warm <crimsun> no powerdown. <jldugger> no <jldugger> i'll shut it down <jldugger> turn it on after being off all night <jldugger> problem persists <jldugger> i might investigate if pulling the battery solves it <crimsun> that's not a problem until you've determined that it's not supposed to act that way. <jldugger> i didnt say it was a problem, just that its wierd <jldugger> oh <jldugger> i guess the problem would be that you cant turn the sound on at all in that state in linux, to my knowledge <crimsun> have you verified the behavior with alsa-driver-1.0.13? <jldugger> is that feisty? <crimsun> no, it's upstream or Debian <tritium> good night, crimsun & jldugger <jldugger> ah. it hasnt bothered me to the point where id build my own drivers yet. <crimsun> all the patches were available prior to Edgy shipping, but understandably Edgy shipped without a fair number of necessary HDA patches <crimsun> 'night tritium <jldugger> amusing unrelated note: installing network-manager cut like 5 seconds off of bootchart <jldugger> probably because it put those 5 seconds into my session <jldugger> is there a smart way to go about building and installing alsa-driver-1.0.13? <crimsun> yes. apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential && wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.13.tar.bz2 && tar xf alsa-driver-1.0.13.tar.bz2 && cd alsa-driver-1.0.13 && ./configure --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-debug=full --with-cards=hda-intel --with-kernel=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build && make && sudo make install-modules && sudo depmod -e && <crimsun> sudo kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*|sort -r) && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}' |sort -r) && sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel <jldugger> damn <jldugger> was expecting to get a web page or something <jldugger> thats much more useful <crimsun> I've only typed that a dozen times today. <jldugger> heh <jldugger> at least in my terminal, cntl-r will do a search through history ;) <crimsun> [esc] / here (zsh-beta) <jldugger> hmm. i think that part to kill everything touching audio files might be zsh or something <crimsun> it's probably the module list order <crimsun> snd_page_alloc is sometimes loaded prior to snd <jldugger> i think its kill <crimsun> if it gives you a "usage.." message, then it's kill <jldugger> because i get the usage dialog <jldugger> yea <crimsun> (and that syntax is valid sh) <jldugger> perhaps it failed the first time because of load order, then when i ran it again, it couldnt find any programs to kill <pwnguin> i dont think it needed the reverse sort <crimsun> the only sort -r that's necessary is the lsmod one <crimsun> the one following lsof is optional but shouldn't throw an error <pwnguin> well, seems to have loaded some stuff, and gnome popped up <pwnguin> yea, for some reason, that module remove line only works without error unsorted <pwnguin> oh, i guess i should note that i am jldugger <jldugger> no change in behaviors =/ <DrSpin> I can declare 100% OOB compatability with my GQ-ZX5360 (Fry's House Brand) <DrSpin> ACPI Issues that were present in Dapper don't exist in Edgy (Have to start the computer on A/C in order be able to unplug it without it suspending <DrSpin> WPA doesn't work but I don't think this card supports <DrSpin> it <DrSpin> I will complain that everytime I switch wireless networks I have to run /etc/init.d/networking restart in order for DNS to update <DrSpin> Have noticed this as well if I have to swtich to ETH for whatever reason #ubuntu-laptop 2006-11-04 <Solarion> umm, does anyone else lack a mkdir button in their gnome filechoosers with edgy? <jldugger> Create folder in under file <jldugger> but it is a pain when using a tablet <Solarion> ? <jldugger> oh <jldugger> gnome file chooser <Solarion> yes <jldugger> somehow my retarded mind translated that into gnome file browser <jldugger> aka nautilus <Solarion> negative <jldugger> but yes, there is no mkdir button in the file chooser it seems <jldugger> are you using a program that's using the file chooser to save something? <Solarion> yes <Solarion> or open <Solarion> whatever <jldugger> im pretty sure theres a "save" dialog <jldugger> thats not gtkfilechooser <tritium> nixternal: you received edgy CDs in the mail? <nixternal> yes <tritium> I didn't realize they were shipping edgy CDs <nixternal> just for LoCo teams <tritium> Oh <tritium> nixternal: does it have to be an approved LoCo? Our N.M. team is listed on the wiki page, but not yet approved. <nixternal> i think it has to be approved <tritium> I see. You don't happen to have any extras up in CO, do you? <tritium> Oh, you're not in CO, are you? <nixternal> im in chicago...if i do though, i will let you know <nixternal> hehe <tritium> Thanks :) <nixternal> joey is in co <tritium> Ah, yeah. <nixternal> i should know within the week if i will have some left over <tritium> You going to M.V. <tritium> ? <nixternal> no <tritium> Thanks, nixternal. <nixternal> but im goign to see stallman tomorrow ;) <tritium> I'd just want 1 if you had it. <nixternal> well, i would ship more than 1, as the cost isn't that far off <nixternal> i know dthacker wanted some, and i need to see about getting him some as well.. <tritium> :) <tritium> No problem. <nixternal> im sure i can probably fire off 25 or so, but won't know for sure until the guys get their hands on them first <tritium> Cool, I'll just hang tight.

They both fell down on reliably resuming and suspending my ThinkPad T20 laptop, which appears to be a general Linux regression. The article is here: <markstos> http://www.richmondcomputes.org/blog/mark/mandriva_2007_vs_ubuntu_edgy <markstos> and the related suspend/resume bug report is here: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/50031 <mamzers555> i have the same problem, suspending to ram don't work. but i now found out, that if swap it causes problems <johny> hey everybody, someone could help? <johny> is there anybody? <Lure> johny: what is the problem <johny> I've got a laptop and experience some problems with the resolution higher than 1024x768. <Lure> laptop model and which graphic card <johny> I'm using an ATI card, 9700 for notebooks. <Lure> ati or fglrx drivers? <johny> The laptop, hmm it's a "litlle-known" machine <johny> fglrx <Lure> johny: they have dropped support for several cards in recent fglrx driver - did you try "ati" (open source driver) <Lure> johny: and you still did not say what is the problem above 1024x768... <johny> No I haven't so far <johny> so ok the aplication sets the resulution but if it's higher than 1024 I have problems with viewing the screen.. <johny> my mouse leaves tails , and different colors appear. <Lure> johny: I heard about this problem on fglrx <Lure> johny: why do not try open source driver? <johny> ok, and fglrx isn't ? <Lure> johny: no, fglrx is binary driver from ATI. Just replace "fglrx" with "ati" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart the login session <johny> OK i'll, if the problem remains I'll let you know, ok? <Lure> open source driver in edgy is much better than the one in dapper and fglrx is only needed for latest cards (X1xxx) <johny> but what's the basic difference beetwen them? <Lure> johny: huge - one is open source, but written with limited documentation (so lacking in features), the other is done by ATI, so they have all the info to write it properly, but the source is not there (so only ATI can fix bugs) and it is known to have problemes with hibernate and other issues... <johny> ok i got that now : <johny> :) <johny> Am i supposed to set the same in Kubuntu? (I'm asking becouse of friend of mine) <Lure> johny: yes * Lure is running oss ati driver on his kubuntu laptop <johny> thank you very much, let me ask- are there many people here every day asking info and searching for solutions? <johny> ok gotta go, bye #ubuntu-laptop 2006-11-25 <dade`> someone using a macbook ? <dade`> someone with a macbook ? <unimatrix9> hi all <unimatrix9> orinoco 0.15rc3 are there different versions of this driver?
