[Bug 2061551] Re: Merely booting Ubuntu 24.04 beta live CD breaks BitLocker & booting anything using Shim

I don't buy that "buggy firmware" is an issue. In my case, I have this issue now on a Dell XPS 13 9310 2-in-1 laptop after booting Ubuntu 24.04 Live. I have secure booted many other Linux LIVE distros from USB on this computer and never had a BitLocker recovery key issue afterwards! If two new, nam

[Bug 1715552] Re: VMWare does not start

These instructions worked as well for me with VMWare Player 12.5.9 after upgrading to Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Desktop with Linux kernel 4.15, thanks! However, I'm now prepping for further upgrade to the latest Ubuntu 21.04 (kernel 5.11), and there seems to be more problems! The distro's shared librar

[Bug 423817] Re: brcupsconfpt1 assert failure: *** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/Brother/Printer/dcp560cn/cupswrapper/brcupsconfpt1 terminated

This crash is NOT due to any proprietary code, or binary blob. There is a really simple fix for it (that I posted way back in 2010-04-06). Look at comment #4. My fix isn't great, btw. You could still get a buffer overflow. The correct solution would be to check the size of the exec string bef

Still broken in Maverick however; the latest version of Synaptic in those repositories is 0.63.1ubuntu14. Maverick is supposed to be still supported, so it isn't nice to break it in an update but not fix it also... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, wh

[Bug 638344] Re: wake up from suspend

Suspend/Hibernate don't work with Nouveau driver for me either. GPU lockup message appears upon resume from suspend usually. Resume from Hibernate yields garbage graphics display and lockup. I have Nvidia Quadro NVS 50 video card and using Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick). Suspend/Hibernate work fine fo

[Bug 568310] Re: Video mode corrupted after resume from suspend to RAM

For me, with a Nvidia Quadro NVS 50 card, I have this bug with suspend/hibernate the Nouveau video driver also, but these suspend/hibernate functions also work perfectly with the VESA and NV drivers on Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick. The NV driver is slower than Nouveau, of course (ex: play an HD movie fil

[Bug 423817] Re: brcupsconfpt1 assert failure: *** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/Brother/Printer/dcp560cn/cupswrapper/brcupsconfpt1 terminated

The problem here is that the /usr/Brother/Printer/mfc440cn/cupswrapper/brcupsconfpt1 file is returning a *** stack smashing detected *** error. There is a buffer overrun in the char media_command variable in the brcupsconfig.c file. A quick (and rather bad) fix is to make the array larger. I c
