Too many bugs to isolate a bug when swithching from Alt-F1 to Alt-F7

First, I consider Linux to be the less buggy OS out there.
Well, Windows would be less buggy, but it does not really exist, since you have to pay to use it.
Still, I use to consider Linux very buggy. This opinion I hold true more than ever.
Here is my box:
A P5GZ-MX motherboard (intel 945GZ), with 1 GB Memory, and an Celeron D @ 2.66 GHz.
Now, the integrated VGA connector is badly soldered, so that I used to put something to hold the cable up to have an image.
This is not the monitor Cable that is broken (I tried an other one and had the same problem).
When this was not enough anymore, I put my box upside-down (reversing side of  DVD and HD too), that way gravity would hold the cable up (eh... down).
When this was not enough anymore, I put an old Radeon 7200 (an R100 generation ATI PCI card).
Then, my problems began (eh... I means continue as usual).
Let's begin the story with when I installed Arch Linux (again, well the first time with the Radeon 7200 card), about three weeks ago.
Well, I set the BIOS to prefer the PCI card, to internal one, for what should be now obvious reason.
I installed Xorg... and things were not so bad. Except, one in about 3 times, when switching back from (Ctrl-Alt-F1 console) to (Alt-F7 Xorg).
I would have THE bug. Well, basically, one or many window would be empty. Mouse would move, but not interact with anything on screen. Sometimes mouse is jailed inside a window (cannot move out of a window). Recently (maybe just because Firefox not occupying full screen), I would see that some of the text from (Ctrl-Alt-F1 text console) would appears (very brokenly) under the windows (about 4 times on the screen, in green on black).
I still can swith to text mode with Ctrl-Alt-F1 after bug, and then can use the console.
Nothing interesting would show in Xorg.0.log after the bug happened.
I thought maybe I should try a different window manager. I tried icewm rather than OpenBox (or twm).
At first, I thought OpenBox was the bug, because icewn seems not exhibit THE bug.
But then, I came to the conclusion, that icewm just had made the bug happen one in about twenty (rathen than in three).
So I thought that I should install fbcon and vesa driver too (there were some warning they were not installed).
No change.
Then I thought, maybe I should try with the vesa driver rather than the radeon one.
Surprise:
(EE) VESA(0): V_BIOS address 0x3d810 out of range
(EE) screen found, but none have a usable configuration
Then I thought, I should try with latest kernel. Downloaded it.
Still the bug... with 3.1.1-1-Arch (32 bits BTW).
Ok, so let's stick with radeon. Reading on possible Kernel Mode Setting with Radeon, I created /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf with:
options radeon modeset=1
Well, just restarting with startx, show in Xorg.0.log, that KMS was still active.
So, I thought, let's reboot and see.
But I did not see.
Well, my GRUB menu, have NO vga= on the kernel line. So that I boot in plain text (as far as I know).
At first, Linux seems to boot fine, but then not much before when login prompt would appears... screen became totally black.
I realized I was still able to log in without seeing what I do, and 'reboot'.
Ok, try the fallback... not working either.
So basically, my computer still was working, except I would not see anything.
Then I began to think... well, maybe I could try to connect the monitor in the 'badly soldered' internal VGA connector.
Surprise, surprise: the login prompt! Ouf!
Well, strangely I now need to hold the cable up, so that I thought: maybe this is time to put my box down side up (remember, it is already up side down). But, was too lazy for it. I just edited back /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf with modese=0, put back the monitor in the Radeon 7200 card, and rebooted.
Things were 'fine' again.
That's when, I thought I should write a message for maybe asking help, but frankly more to publicly complain.

Revised hypothesis:
I now believe that the bug while switching from console back to Xorg is not hardware related, and should probably happens to anyone. Also I have a new procedure that seems to always trigger it:
1) on console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) run startx    (without ending & )
2) You should be in Xorg, go back to console with Ctrl-Alt-F1
3) type Enter
4) Type Alt-F7 to go back in Xorg... hopefully for me in bogus state
Now, the message that seems to be written in some titlebars are the same, I think, that I would get when I go back to console and do: Ctrl-C (2 or three times)... then after the bug I would see some:
xterm: Ressource temporarily not available  (or something very similar)
About V_BIOS address 0x3d810 out of range I am now convinced it is while loading (initializing) int10 module,
The sad part is that if I add Option "NoInt10" "True" to vesa driver section (doc seems to wrongly suggest to put it in Server section)... then yes, the out of range does not appears, but vesa will continue to unload itself... and finally no usable screen found message would continue to appears. So I suppose Int10 module have become mandatory to vesa rather than optional.

    Lots to be excited about. BUT...Just updated to 8.1 on one of my computers to test it out...
    Sadly, the following issue is NOT fixed for me. Is it with new projects only?  I haven't started a new project on 8.1 I've only opened an old project but the issue that I'm referring to which involves also a delay/freeze of anywhere from a few seconds to a MINUTE while the render bar goes from yellow to red and then back to yellow is still there. Boo.
    On the list above...
    Switching between sequences can turn the render bar red.
    This issue is incredibly easy to replicate. I really do hope it gets fixed. Here are the steps:
    1) Create two sequences with multiple short clips (the more clips the better)
    2) Make sure GPU acceleration is enabled.
    3) Add warp stabilizer to the clips in both sequences. Again, the more clips the longer the delay/freeze will be as the render bar goes from YELLOW to RED and then eventually back to YELLOW again.
    4) Hit SAVE.
    5) Now, toggle between sequences. You'll hit a short delay with a few clips stabilized and a LONG delay with lots stabilized. In my case this delay is around a full minute. The render bar will go from YELLOW to RED and then back to yellow...eventually.
    6) Toggle back to the original sequence and the delay occurs again.
    7) Once you've toggled between sequences and have gone through this delay, that's it, there is no longer a delay...UNTIL...(and here's the big kicker)...until the project is SAVED again. After that the issue returns when you toggle between sequences. Both saving manually and AUTOSAVING cause this issue. No way around it except not editing with GPU acceleration.
    Not sure what the issue is...caching issue when saving maybe? Either way, it stinks and it's still there in 8.1. Big bummer.
    Again, lots to be excited about with this release but I really was hopefully this specific issue was resolved.
    Sigh.

  • Logic 8.02 Crashes often. Too Many BUGS!! Unstable.

    Hi,
    There's too many problems with Logic 8.02. It's not stable and keeps crashing. I save often becos I expect it may crash unexpectedly whilst loading plugins.
    The final straw for me was when I couldn't even save my session - as saving it actually caused a crash. ha! (what a joke).
    In one hour, I've recorded logic crashing atleast 4 to 5 times. This is why I'm making this post. Apple needs to pick up there game and release software that doesn't crash 4 to 5 times. it's lame but I can't do anything about it but wait for apple to fix it. I do push the computer really hard though. For basic stuff, logic 8's stable, but when you add things like space designer followed by other cpu intensive processes that logic starts to crash unexpectedly.
    How do we report bugs to apple? I found a few bugs that needs attention.
    for example:
    1. Opening a plugin in slot 13 renders it useless cos you can't bring up it's graphics interface when double clicking on it.
    2. Can't copy an object's name and paste it to another object cos the function "command C" doesn't work after Click on the object with the logic's "text" pointer.
    Run the a Mac Pro 8 x 2.8GHz on Mac OS 10.5.4 with large buffer settings.
    Has anyone found other bugs? How do we let apple know?
    Thanks.
    Vaughn.
    Frustrated with Logic 8.02

    In one hour, I've recorded logic crashing atleast 4 to 5 times. This is why I'm making this post. Apple needs to pick up there game and release software that doesn't crash 4 to 5 times. it's lame but I can't do anything about it but wait for apple to fix it.
    Vaughn man that s.ucks. You must be ready to throw your machine out the window. However, what you seem to be saying is that this is absolutely positively Logic's fault, and that this MUST BE the norm for Logic. This type of thinking isn't going to get you anywhere. Logic is NOT your only problem, or else we all would be having these problems too! If we all were experiencing what you are experiencing, these forums would have exploded and people would be having bonfires with their Logic boxes and buying Protools systems.
    It's been a bumpy ride since Logic 8 and Leopard came out, but VAST MAJORITY OF PEOPLE are reporting VERY GOOD to FANTASTIC performance from Logic 8, using 8.0.2 and 10.5.3 or 10.5.4. This includes a lot of pro's working on very large projects. In fact, I've seen only a couple of posts reporting crashes since 10.5.3 came out. What you are experiencing is NOT normal.
    If you want to use Logic, you have to figure out what's going on with YOUR system, because something is wrong with your set-up specifically.
    Try trashing Logic's prefs and repairing disk permissions. If you're working on old projects made with previous versions, or old autoload projects, try starting with a fresh slate. There have been issues with old projects and autoloads. Try a big project with only Logic's internal plugs, as there have been some incompatibility issues with 3rd party plugs. Make sure you have all updates for those. Not saying that Logic will only work with it's own stuff, but there may be one plug that's causing all your problems, and you have to figure out what it is.
    Try removing rewire plug ins, especially Melodyne.
    If all else fails, reinstall Leopard and Logic. A huge pain, but not as much so as making yourself crazy waiting for the solution to come from the outside.
    Good Luck!

  • Too many bugs! How to revert from 2.1.0 to 1.4.5 (SFR builds)

    So far I have uncovered the following bugs/problems in 2.1.0 SFR build, causing me to revert to 1.4.5:
    1. SMS's are sometimes sent to different recipients than displayed, when this happens the message is found under both IDs.
    2. Phone doesn't match caller ID to contacts on inbound calls when country code is missing in the caller ID.
    3. The phone takes 4 seconds to look-up contacts when typing in a name in the dialer
    4. The SSL bug, preventing you from browsing some sites
    5. Alarms "just dissapear" (when setting a daily alarm - it suddently is just gone)
    All in all, these bugs in conjunction with no real improvements in 2.1.0 makes a downgrade to 1.4.5 inevitable.
    Can anyone please help me understand how to find a 1.4.5 OS Doctor?
    Post relates to: Pre Plus p100ueu (SFR)

    Hello!
    First I do appologize for these troubles.  We have already discussed your 4th issue from another post but for the others I need to ask some questions:
    1.  SMS's are sometimes sent to different recipients than displayed, when this happens the message is found under both IDs.
    The contact that your use to send out the SMS, is is linked to other contacts maybe to those that the phone sent sms too as well?
    The additionals that got the SMS, you do see them in the conversation views in Messaging?
    What kind of troubleshooting steps have you already done since upgrading to 2.1.0?
    2.  Phone doesn't match caller ID to contacts on inbound calls when country code is missing in the caller ID.
    Do these contacts in your phone have the country code already in them?
    What account are the contacts comming from?
    In Regional Settings app, what country is selected in the Phone Numbers box?
    3.  The phone takes 4 seconds to look-up contacts when typing in a name in the dialer
    Approximately how many contacts do you have on the phone?
    Have you tried a restart yet?
    If you have any SIM contacts, is the SIM card on the phone a 3G SIM card or at least one issued with the Pre Plus?
    4.  Alarms "just dissapear" (when setting a daily alarm - it suddently is just gone)
    Does the alarm dissappears right after setting or later on it could dissappear?
    Have you conducted any erases of the device since upgrading to 2.1.0?
    Please keep me posted on these.  As for downgrading to 1.4.5, we only support the latest version for a given device so we do not support dowgrading the device to an earlier build.  Do appologize for this.

  • Is there any way to get back to iOS 6.1.3? Far too many bugs with iOS 7

    Is there any way to go back to iOS 6.1.3 on iPhone 4? I'm sick of the bugs that have come with iOS 7. My phone is slow, it randomly calls numbers when it's in my pocket even though voice dialling has been disabled and the amount of crashes I've had have been ridiculous. It is so unstable. Is there anyway to change or is it time I considered jumping ship and going to Android?

    Nope... Many other post in here with same question... Sorry

  • Workaround Site for too many Bugs in Dreamweaver

    I am using Dreamweaver Software since 1996 and I must say
    that I am very unhappy with 8(.02). I did not buy 2004 MX as I have
    been reading about all the bugs in Forums. But I did not want to be
    back to far and upgraded from very good working 4 -> 8. Still
    regular functions a Webdesign Company needs daily are not working
    properly. I think that Adobe themselfes do not use Dreamweaver -
    they would already have busted the bugs month ago.
    I have been writing again and again. But only 1 time I
    received an answer - all the other messages about missing features
    like choose a profile in the dropdown menue with the letter (which
    is very needfull if you have 400 projects). Broken links are not
    getting repaired without busting Dreamweaver ...
    Only one Computer is now working with Dreamweaver 8 - all the
    others will remain Dreamweaver 4. I am not willed to pay only for a
    nicer look of the software and less comfort and stability.
    Do you agree?
    Thanks, Michael

    You have 400 sites listed in the site dropdown list? Or maybe
    I am not
    understanding what you mean by "project". I'll be honest with
    you,
    scrolling that list is all I've ever done since I started
    with DW2.

    I have never had Dreamweaver crash on a broken link check.

    I assume you have use "Selected Folders" for this - again, I
    cannot

    always worked as

  • Photoshop Elements with too many bugs

    I have been using your Photoshop elements for a lot of years now and a lot of different versions.
    This is because I have been very satisfied with the program and its quality.
    Now I have bought the latest version 12 and have found it totally impossible to use.
    What have happened with your quality?
    1   When I click on "Organise" I am always thrown out of the program completely. The only way to come to my albums is to click to "Editor" and then go through the backdoor and in "Editor" click on "Organise". This is not the way I want it to be!
    2   I have been using my albums in Elements versions 5, 6, 9 and 10 without any problems regarding time delays. I am using raw-format so I am used to wait a little (=  some seconds) before the photo appears. This has however not been any problem for me!
    In version 12 a lot of photos are shown only with hourglasses and the ones that originally are shown correctly will change to hourglasses after a period of time. After that time I am sitting looking upon only a lot of hourglasses.
    These hourglasses never changes to any photo irrespective how long time I wait.
    Thus, I cannot use this programme.
    3   For many of my albums a lot of photos are shown indication for "no link". For the same installation this has never happened in previous versions.
    In the same album photos are shown both as photos or as indications as "no link". All photos are placed in the same catalogue and I cannot understand the difference.
    Thus, I cannot use this programme.
    Regards
    Kjell Wadelius    [email protected]

    Try deleting the thumbnail cache. Start by closing Elements and click the Windows start button >> Computer.  Navigate to:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\MyCatalog
    Inside the My Catalog folder (or whatever name you gave your catalog) you should find a CACHE file:
    thumb.5.cache
    Highlight that file and delete it.
    After deleting thumb.5.cache restart the elements Organizer and wait. It should regenerate a new set of thumbnails.
    N.B. if you can’t immediately find the ProgramData folder it’s probably a hidden system file.
    Here's how to display hidden files and folders.
    Click the Windows Start Button >> Control Panel >> Folder Options
    (Folder Options could be located under Appearance and Personalization or All Control Panel Items; or find it in Windows Explorer,  choose Tools >> Folder Options)
    In the folder options dialog click the View tab.
    Under Advanced settings, click Show hidden files, folders, and drives, and then click OK.

  • Too many bugs in iOS 6.1

  • I want go back from 4.0 to the previous 3.X release. How do I do this? Too many bugs in 4.0.

    Search box does not accept the auto suggestions when I start to type a search into it. very frustrating since I do a lot of searching. Just take me back to previous version of Firefox. There was nothing wrong with it. I should not have upgraded.

    In Finder, drag the Firefox application to trash.

  • Is it just me or does iMovie have too many bugs especially with Ken Burns

    Has anyone else been experiencing the same amount of problems with iMovie 6 as myself?
    Random crashes every so often (iMovie has closed unexpectically), it seems to happen every time I've forgatten to save my movie for a while.
    Constant problems with Ken Burns rendering ...
    Frequent white flashes in between frames ... after a picture has been rendered, especially in HD. To the point that I can't create movies in 720 dv because I will always get static frames here and there.
    Static rendering with some images with Ken Burns (diffrent from previous problem) , it seems to effect photos from some digital cameras more then otheres, but I have seen this problem affect just about every photo source. With my photos especially I can't use the Ken burns effect, because I get problems atleast 50%.
    And all these problems are happening on my new (current generation) ibook. I've combed through the forums and tried just about every possible solution, reinstalled imovie, repatched it, deleted preferences, installed from a friendssdvd instead of mine, etc ... but I still keep getting these problems. Anything short of reverting back to iLife 5 doesn't work, which ofcourse defeats the whole purpose of gettin iLife 6.
    Don't get me wrong a like the new features in iMovie 6, but I'm really finding it impossible to work with it.
    Maybe iMovie 6 simply doesn't run well on iBooks?

    No iMovie has always been a touchy beast

  • Bug when converting from text to date

    Hello Guys,
    I have a table with about 700 rows and the first column is for date.
    Most rows correctly have the cell content as date, but some rows show it as text, and even when I try to change it to date, nothing happens. It sticks as text.
    Main problem is I can't sort correctly of even do calculations.
    For me it really seems to be a bug.
    The only solution I see is to create a new column to convert the values with formula, but this is a shame to need to do this to workaround such simple bug.
    Best regards,
    Bruno

    Hi Wayne,
    LOL.
    Here's the cell that came from text file exactly like the next one. After setting as date in the format panel, it stays as expected:
    The row below came from another paste from the same text file, but it insists on not becoming date:
    After setting date, and leaving the cell selection, it goes back to "Automatic".
    In the bar at the bottom, it is shown as "Text".
    I have already tried to select the entire column and set as Date, and also to do it individually, but only some are converted. Other stays as Texts.
    Best regards,
    Bruno

  • Bug When Porting From Web Logic

    According to IPLANET, this is Bug # 547750, according to the bug notes
    ... this
    issue is said to have been resolved and will be fixed within iAS 6.0 SP3
    due and
    this month - beginning of July.
    We have EJBs developed on Weblogic. We need to deploy it on IAS
    6.0 SP2. We extract the home,remote and bean class files from the JARs
    created on Weblogic and create a JAR for IAS. While saving these JARs
    we get an "Error on Saving" message. A compiler error message is
    thrown on the console which I have attached as file ErrorMessage. It
    throws RemoteException and IOException. When we remove IOException from
    the throws statement, we can save the JAR.

    AFAIK all exceptions in your remote must extends java.rmi.RemoteException.
    Try creating
    a RemoteIOException ( extending RemoteException ) and throw that instead.
    hth,
    Edwin.

    According to IPLANET, this is Bug # 547750, according to the bug notes
    .. this
    issue is said to have been resolved and will be fixed within iAS 6.0 SP3
    due and
    this month - beginning of July.
    We have EJBs developed on Weblogic. We need to deploy it on IAS
    6.0 SP2. We extract the home,remote and bean class files from the JARs
    created on Weblogic and create a JAR for IAS. While saving these JARs
    we get an "Error on Saving" message. A compiler error message is
    thrown on the console which I have attached as file ErrorMessage. It
    throws RemoteException and IOException. When we remove IOException from
    the throws statement, we can save the JAR.

  • Bug when restoring from Migration manager?

    hi
    I got a new mac today. I did a fresh install and chose to do a restore from time machine, which I had previously used to backup my old laptop. When time machine finished I found my old user account in the login window. However my password doesn't work at all. Also tried reseting the password using the leopard installation DVD but it keeps rejecting my password.
    Any ideas on how to solve this?

  • I close out Firefox then when I try to reopen it, I get a message that it is still running. I've had so many bugs with Firefox that I'm removing it and going back to IE.

    The problems I've had with Firefox are numerous. It keeps running in the background and won't reopen. I have to go to the task manager and close it manually. Now, it won't load my iGoogle homepage. I was loading fine, earlier but now won't. My other browsers work fine. There are just too many bugs here.

    For more information see [[Basic Troubleshooting]], under
    '''4. Restart Firefox in Safe Mode'''
