KVM switch problems in Ubuntu 9.04

[Bo Lundberg]

I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 on a new system and experienced problem with my KVM switch (D-link DKVM-2K).

  The install program can't find the monitor and fall back on a default mode with aa inferior screen resolution.
  To solve this I must ad instructions to the xorg.conf file. (Without the KVM-switch the monitor is recognized ok.)

  The KVM switch is powered on all the time even if I shut down the system.
  When I tried Kubuntu I've got some messages about an unknown pci device and at shutdown something about “iterated PCI device”
  I haven't been able to reproduce this in Ubuntu.

I've running both kubuntu, Mandriva and XP with Nvidia and SIS graphic cards in various combinations on this KVM switch without any problem.

This is not related to the kvm switch, so i withdraw this bugreport.

Hi Bo,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid.

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 375179

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

This bug is missing log files that will aid in dianosing the problem. From a terminal window please run:

apport-collect 375179

and then change the status of the bug back to 'New'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

I'm closing this bug report due to no activity and both releases mentioned no longer being supported.
