This bug needs to be solved: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=431966

Because nobody is taking responsibility for the bug. The initscripts people blame smb and vice-versa. See the upstream bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=431966

Apathy, probably. Ubuntu is waiting for Debian to fix it. Over at Debian, the init guys and cifs guys are blaming eachother, so nothing gets fixed. See...

Did you try it as K12umouncifs or even as K01umountcifs?

umountcifs is a script that I wrote myself. There's a link to it earlier in this thread. Also, you can find it at...

Strange... perhaps there is an issue with Upstart running custom init.d scripts? I wrote it on Debian, not Ubuntu. I know that Debian's upcoming new init system needs headers added to init.d scripts....

Yes. First the K scripts are run, then the S scripts are run.

You could try lowering the umountcifs script. Try K15 or K12 or even lower. Eventually it should work when you're low enough.

Well, the biggest annoyance that the script fixes isn't the the messages but the time it waits for a timeout. Does it shut down fast in you case? Or does it wait?

If the script doesn't work, then...

It's not the OS that is at fault. It's the cifs driver.

The cifs driver does not run inside the kernel like all the other drivers but runs inside a separate daemon. Don't ask me why. Ubuntu tries...

There is a very simple reason why you cannot simply move umountnfs to S17: What about people who load system directories or home directories from a network share? unmounting those at S17 is too soon....

Yeah. update-rc.d was made for the post-install scripts inside .deb packages to make it easy for applications to add/remove themselves from the /etc/rcX.d directories without tripping over themselves...

From the update-rc.d man page:



So, don't use update-rc.d.

I have written a different init script based off /etc/init.d/sendsigs and /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh that has two improvements over the script from the original poster:

1) It does not use `cut` so...

And again with the same flawed statement. Making something easy to install does not mean you should install it by default.

Ubuntu should enable AIXGL on computers where it will work with a free...

Hello,

I am running an AMD64 PC with 32-bit Ubuntu installed (I want things like flash et. al). I am trying to create amd64 deb's with pbuilder. I've read that it is possible to do, but I need to...

Great work. It worked on my first try. Does exactly what it says on the tin. Now I can provide support to my parents without biking over half an hour trough rainy weather :)

Thanks heaps. That should save other people like me a lot of time searching :)

That doesn't work anymore. For the codecs you need

Somehow the problem disappeared after I installed Ubuntu 64 instead of regular Ubuntu (I accidentally installed i386 Ubuntu on my new AMD64 box).

Anyone? Please? It's quite hard to play Doom 3 with bad sound because I miss most of the audio cues and the stuff that's been told in audio logs.

I tried aRts with no effect. I tried the sound...

Hello,

I have tried most of what is written in this sticky about sound issues but I keep haviong sound troubles. All of the games I tried so far sound like they are downsampled into nothingness...

Quakre2 for Ubuntu is compiled with SDL support. Instead of the ref_softx.so, try this command:

quake2 +set vid_ref softsdl

Hello all,

I realize that this has probabely been asked before but google and the forum search are not being helpfull :?

I installed Quake2 and the datafiles on ubuntu 4.x but it didn' t...
