[Bug 477832] Re: User account lost permissions after Karmic upgrade, breaking all audio
Thanks for this detailed report. To make it completely clear, you experienced these problems after upgrade and before running users-admin, so that it cannot be the culprit? I'm asking that because it may also have led to that situation, it's a problem we've already seen. About the admin rights issue, being member of the admin group should be enough. What does /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/51-ubuntu- admin.conf contains? Can you list the groups you are member of? You can also compare those memberships with those of the user that still works (relatively easy reading /etc/group). Are you able to perform upgrades using update-manager from the buggy user account? About the general issue, I'm not sure what can have caused that, except update-manager itself. Once we have sorted out the problem specific to the gnome-system-tools (they may well be a mere consequence of the global bug), I think I'll move the bug to the package update-manager. ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- User account lost permissions after Karmic upgrade, breaking all audio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thanks! Seems that PolicyKit is running correctly. Does sudo killall polkitd; sudo /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd report any error? It may be that you're not detected as an active user, which could come from a ConsoleKit problem. Then, connecting via VNC would actually matter, if there's a bug in that part. You can edit /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy, find the lines no auth_admin_keep and put "auth_admin_keep" instead of "no" on the line. You may also set both to "yes", but don't forget to revert this change after you tested it.

Let's be clear: the fix is known upstream for ages, see my comment #2 above. So no need to discuss it again, you just have to find somebody willing to upload the version to Lucid.

I don't believe that would improve things. The confusion is not around the fact that the list represents groups: it's quite obvious, since the list in the main window represented users, and you clicked on "Manage Groups". The problem can be that we don't know whether the groups are those present on the system, or those the user is member of - this comes from the fact that it's hard to find a correct place for the "Manage Groups" button.

[Bug 603746] Re: the word "加入" in grou p managment should be "新增"
I understand this concern, but I don't think that's the problem here: - Add/Delete means "Add/Delete and item of the list", and the ambiguous point here is: what's in the list? (users or groups). The general idea of having short labels is pretty intuitive and is used in many other places (file chooser, Empathy account configuration...) - "Add" and "Delete" are and should be translated the same for all buttons, be this term applied to users, groups or connection entries: that's a standard, and actually "Delete" is translated from GTK+ itseld. From what I've understood, the Chinese translation should not be changed, so contexts wouldn't help. Of course, I could add translation contexts if you have an example of a language where there's an issue.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 433654 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433654 Thanks for the report, this is indeed a very confusing behavior caused by inconsistencies between packages. But that's known as bug 433654 for a while. The suggested simple and dirty fix would even be to remove the group from the list, as "listening music when logged out" is a very weird case people could handle manually if they really need this. This is mostly a silly behavior which was never intended. As you can see on the other report, I'd be in favor of removing that useless "audio" group by default, since users-admin's general idea is to list all groups that exist in hope they are useful, which is not the case obviously in Ubuntu ATM. But for Ubuntu, the easiest solution might be to hide it with a downstream patch. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 433654 [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences -- Users-admin, the audio privilege needs clarification https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/616998 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 35423] Re: [time-admin] System clock reverts to GMT at boot
Mukesh: please don't reopen such an old bug, but file a new one if needed. In your case, though, I think there's no bug: Linux sets the hardware clock to UTC time disregarding your time zone. Then, the time that is displayed is adapted depending on the time zone you want. This is necessary e.g. for servers where different users may want different time zones. When you say: > I think this can be fixed by running hwclock --systohc (as root) > following timezone changes. First, I don't think this will change anything, since it will save UTC time to hardware clock, not local time. And second, "I think" is a weird way of giving information. ;-) Either you've tested it, or it's of no value for debugging, and better not say it! -- [time-admin] System clock reverts to GMT at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 630430] Re: Disabled accounts are still allowed password-less login via GDM
Thanks for your report. Actually, the problem is not that this user has
an unknown password (you can check in /etc/passwd that it's empty). It's
that password-less login ("Don't ask for password on login") takes
precedence over the fact that the account is disabled. And since
password-less login is only allowed for GDM (the login screen), you can
only login though it.
The idea of password-less login was to allow people to log in easily
into their graphical session. Thus, terminal login was not allowed, and
I don't think that's really needed. The screensaver lock, OTOH, should
be changed to work as GDM, since you can always circumvent it by going
back to GDM.
I think the other confusing point is that the account is said to be
disabled, while the user can still log in. The easiest solution is to
disable password-less login for disabled accounts, and make it
impossible to choose this without re-enabling the account. I don't think
there's another simple solution, since they would all involve tweaking
security configuration files in a weird fashion, which is never a good
idea.

Good - an yes, I meant xsession-errors. My guess here is that new users use compiz by default, which blocks, while your account works fine because compiz is disabled.

[Bug 307019] Re: ecryptfs Private directory not mounted after changing password in users-admin
If you're still aiming at Karmic, an elegant solution is not really possible IMO. I'd sheerly copy/paste the code from gnome-about-me for the password dialog. Then, you can just adapt it so that when changing the password of the current user (see OobsSelfConfig), we ask for the old one, and use gnome-about-me's code instead of committing a password change using the stb. Emptying the entries will be anough for that, since we just take these from user_settings_get_user_data(), and the backends don't change the password when we send them an empty one. Sure, that's ugly, but I don't think you can expect a better design in that timeframe...

[Bug 434565] Re: [time-admin] Time admin seems not to remember selected time zone
OK, thanks for the debugging. I've just upgraded to Karmic, and I can now confirm the problem. Attached is an improved version of the patch currently shipped as 01_debian_4.0.patch. It makes detection of Debian-based systems even more standard, using /etc/lsb-release so that we are not confused by the version from /etc/debian_version. That was the cause if the problem in Karmic. With the new patch, Ubuntu is assumed to work as Debian everywhere, which I believe is correct. Versioning is removed, which is already what the original patch did. To packagers: I could commit that fix or something similar upstream since it cleans the mess that distro detection has become, and should not affect other distributions. Then I can release a 2.8.2 minor release including this, plus two other fixes. Does this scenario fit your needs, or do you prefer updating the patch only in Ubuntu? ** Attachment added: "fix_debian_ubuntu_detection.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32322266/fix_debian_ubuntu_detection.patch ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => In Progress -- [time-admin] Time admin seems not to remember selected time zone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434565 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 435935] Re: Support Upstart
Converted scripts include GDM, D-Bus, Apport, Anacron, acpid, UFW, avahi-daemon, NetworkManager. The first two are not a problem since there are problems with people stopping them by mistake and breaking their graphical sessions. The others would be good to have, but... On my system, services-admin still manages exim4, klogd, sysklogd, brltty, apmd, alsa-utils, bluetooth, hotkey-setup, powernowd, smartmontools, winbind, ssh, rsync, apache2, samba, ntp and cups. Definitely good to have, I guess. So I'm done with the basic Upstart "support" (more of a "compliance"). I have a patch here that uses 'service' to start/stop scripts, and that hides services duplicated in /etc/init.d and /etc/init. This is because for compatibility, many scripts in /etc/init.d are links to an Upstart executable that runs actual jobs. So we don't want to mess with that. I've created a new "upstart" init system, that is used for Debian platforms now. Do you now if Debian is planning to move to Upstart? I could theoretically make my patch for Ubuntu only, but that would mean changing platforms in every module and force a rework of patch at bug 434565. Since the only real requirement of the "upstart" system for now is to have 'service' installed, if Debian wants to get Upstart I'll keep it that way. About the fixes I've talked above (links and priorities), they are in the gst and in liboobs, so sadly they can't be released now. I could include them in 2.28.1, if that's worth it, or you could cherry-pick them for Ubuntu. But those changes are completely independent from Upstart, actually - they just make services-admin much cleaner. About releasing the stb: when would Ubuntu need the release so that it can be included properly in Karmic? I can make it very soon, but we have to be sure there are no major bugs (changes are not so complex, though). -- Support Upstart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435935 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to system-tools-backends in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Correct me if I'm wrong (it's hard to get details on system-config- services on the Web), but I don't believe the Fedora tool brings us much more than we have (or could easily have). It seems to work only with traditional init scripts, and does not seems to have very different features from services-admin. The problem about hard-coded services list is really silly, I guess I can fix that for the next release. Basically, the problem is that you can't get translated names and descriptions from random services, because scripts don't provide it. But we can easily translate known services, and show others in plain English.

Yeah, we can imagine several ways of translating descriptions of services, and .desktop files would be a convenient solution. But that's really beyond the scope of services-admin...

Actually I *think* this behavior has changed in Karmic because we fixed some bug with the GtkTreeModelFilter. The groups view was intended to work that way, but it was broken until now. You can show all the groups and users by going into gconf-editor and changing /apps/gnome-system- tools/users/showall. Now, I don't think the way we work now is correct. Most people go to the groups list to perform administrative tasks, so they need to see system groups.
