100%
2.0 Task Description

This is a bunch of tests, please see if you can reproduce these problems and if happens to you too, add a comment on this ticket

Details and steps

There’s a strange way to manage multiple interfaces with net-connector, looks like that ticket about “mess with multiple interfaces” stills here, I think that I can reproduce it without problems, let me explain my steps so that you can try yourself:

  • First of all, daemon stopped, all configurations cleaned up, the wired cable is plugged, and the computer rebooted (aparently the wireless will keep the used ip, we want a clean conf in the interfaces, so reboot)
  • The system boots, the daemon is started automatically, and i have connection to internet automatically via my wired cable, ok, this is good.
  • Now I want to move this laptop to the bed so i unplug the wired cable and open net-connector interface, trying to configure my wireless: I select my ESSID, put the password, and keep it with dhcp for now, clicked “connect” and (after to wait a bit IMHO) i reach the connection with my wifi

BUG: Actually i can connect to internet but I least my first pings to google are VERY slow, i think that this is what one of the tickets in the BTS has tried to say, who has need to force the other interfaces down. Also, if im not wrong, there’s two route’s set:

# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.2.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
192.168.2.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 ath0
default         192.168.2.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 ath0
default         192.168.2.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

Note: I think that when the “connect” button is clicked, NC should disconnect the other interfaces (we want to use only one in order to have internet, right?), or maybe just the “route’s”

  • Next step: I disconnect the wifi, I plug the wired cable and i click to connect (wired) (note, if is already connected after to plug it, click to disconnect first and then click to connect), then i disconnect it (wired), ill go again to the wireless network (with the wired cable plugged), I select my ESSID and try to connect it: BUG not possible, i see the status progress bar that searches and searches without possible to connect (the ‘route’ command don’t shows any route)

Warning: In my second test i was not unable to reproduce it (only one time in 2 tests), but may the cause be that i have not reproduced the things step by step like is explained before (included the reboot)

  • Another test: now im not connected with anything; i unplug the wired cable (actually set to disconnected), then I go again to the wifi section and try to connect, no way... same problem. Another test: I open a terminal and run “ifconfig eth0 down” (eth0 = wired), and try again to connect with wifi, no way. Another test: trying with “ifconfig ath0 down ; ifconfig ath0 up”, same thing, can’t connects...
  • Ok now i close the interface of net-connector, wait 3 seconds and open it again, unfortunately i don’t see the ESSIDs listed so im obliged to click in the “scan” button, then i select my essid again and click to “connect”, and now finally it was able to connect not really a bug but very strange, let me explore a bit more...

Computer used: macbook (yes, with a bit delicated/buggy driver, so please try to reproduce this on other machine)

 420 2009-07-072009-07-10Bug Report Hibernate to swap partition removes swap from system Closednipsen
100%
Task Description

(Apologies for not being able to provide much in the way of technical info.)

1.9.22 ecomp version
Eeepc901, ssd, first ssd partitioned in ext3/boot, reiserfs/root, linuxswap/.

What happens that I can see is the following. I choose hibernate, the system finds the swap- partition, writes to it, and shuts down. Upon reboot, tuxonice cannot find the hibernation state, and the system loses the swap. Seems likely this is normal, since the swap- partition is marked, and shouldn’t be overwritten - still, I am not able to figure out why tuxonice won’t attempt the restore. Attempted to set verbose mode, but no luck on the boot- section.. The init says swap:’huge md5- like checksum’, etc. Attempted to increase the swap- partition, also change it to a different drive, with the same result.

Task Description

Hello,
i ask for a features, because the terminla on Elive, not cool!
we need the best of the terminal :
[quote]
Terminator: A multi-view terminal

Terminator gives the possibility of having multiples terminal within the sa
As such, it makes it easier to handle multiple terminal sessions as for instance, working in one console and monitoring another one without constantly switching from a window to another.

At the moment, Terminator is available for Ubuntu Hardy and Debian Sid. Anyhow, the source are available from https://launchpad.net/terminator/+download. Once installed, you can start a new terminator session by executing terminator :).
From there, you will be able to split views either by Right-Clicking on a terminal view or by typing the following keybindings:
terminator: terminator multi-view terminalterminator: terminator multi-view terminal

  • Ctrl-Shift-E: will split the view vertically.
  • Ctrl-Shift-O: will split the view horizontally.
  • Ctrl-Shift-P: will focus be active on the previous view.
  • Ctrl-Shift-N: will focus be active on the next view.
  • Ctrl-Shift-W: will close the view where the focus is on.
  • Ctrl-Shift-Q: will exit terminator.
  • F11: will make terminator go fullscreen.

i hope i can see it on the next release, what do u think about this?

 441 2009-07-182010-01-20Bug Report window disappears when using sticky mode and elive-comp ...Closedshunt
100%
Task Description

I like using “Sticky mode” (i.e. traditional X sticky so it sticks on all desktops)because I keep one terminal window with a screen session on all desktops.

When setting “Sticky mode” for a window, window often spontaneously disappears or moves somewhere else. Temporary solution is to left-click on desktop and click “Lost Windows” and find it there. The window will then usually be found on desktop 0:1.

I am using dual-monitor configuration with both monitors as one desktop with elive-compiz. I do not have this problem on single-screen elive-compiz on a laptop, so this is probably some kind of issue with X and twinview/xinerama.

Thanks for the most awesome distro ever.

Task Description

Hi!

I noticed yesterday when i tried after 2 hours of working on Elive (last Dev. Version elive_1.9.37_unstable) to restart my X-server, that the x-server restarts, but it keeps can’t loging in in my system again, and show me just the Black Screen. I have Nvidia Graphic Card, i user the Nvidia Driver shipped with Elive, but not the last one ( the one with Graphic Card up to 512M RAM) my Graphic Card is Nvidia FX 5200 AGP, and the resolution of my Monitor is 1920×1080 Full HD , Viewsonic Flat screen. I had at last to restart my system by pressing at one Ctrl-alt- del combination to restart the estem, because the system did not want to give me anyone of the other console modes to login and do anything. By the way, i added my xorg.conf to add my resolution manually. thats all what i did. Please repare this Problem.

Best Regards,

 452 2009-08-052009-08-25Bug Report Fine tune freezes (sometimes produces a kernel oops) ClosedJuzz
100%
Task Description

When installing on a HP Pavilion dv6000, sl-modem-daemon (and sl-modem-modules-KERNEL) gets installed, and they mess up the fine tune process.

Sometimes it just freezes and goes no further but sometimes it produces a kernel oops.

I’ve removed the sl-modem-daemon and modules since I have no use for it (and I cannot turn off the modem in the bios of the laptop).
And now the fine tune just completed.

(a newcomer might not realize what to do to make it work and then give up on the installation)

Task Description

When asking to create a user - it might be a good idea to ask if the installer should create more users.

This could be useful if it was to be installed on a family computer.

 456 2009-08-172010-01-20Bug Report Shared WEP keys non-functional Closedlegion
100%
Task Description

This might be considered both a bug and a feature request, depending on your point of wiev.

It is (as of verision 1.9.37, as far as I know also in 1.9.39) impossible to connect to wireless networks protected by WEP encryption using a shared key (as opposed to having an open system).

In the standard connection/network manager application this seems to be due to the fact that there is no oprion to actually set the encryption of a WEP-protected network to “shared” as you don’t get any options besides condifuring the key used (i.e. you can’t select the key index, key number etc).

However, even after switching network management software to something more complete/full-featured (such as Wicd, which I tested) and configuring the connection properly the problem persist, in that it refuses to connect.
