Re: Hey! Hard disk install of DVD iso works!

I never had any issues with the DVD alpha or beta minus btrfs.

Did you do any custom partitioning?

Well that's an Anaconda bug isn't it? :)

Still not a reason for a rolling release.

I quite enjoy Fedora 14.

  Yes, I think Alpha is too early to require PXE to work. I'm fine

  Beta. In general I think we need to be fairly loose with Anaconda
  and
  Alpha -- as long as there is some way to boot the installer I'm
  happy.
  We currently don't see alot of installer testing in rawhide so the
  period before Alpha is too short to expect everything to be
  working.
 
 That sounds reasonable to me. Kamil, do you hate making it Beta?

Sigh. Let's make it Beta.

Currently there is some movement to make Fedora Branched and all its milestones 
available in Red Hat's automated testing suite. That uses PXE. Once that is 
done, I expect more pressure to make it work in Alpha.

Another reason why I'm not thrilled is that I perform a lot of testing on a 
machine that doesn't support booting from USB. So I use PXE, because optical 
media are PITA.

But if anaconda team says it's hard for them to make it in Alpha, let's make it 
Beta then.

 It is

 b) inconsistent with previous Fedora releases
 
 c) not by any means more secure for multi users since you need physical

Yeah, I'm honestly not a huge fan of this one either. It bugs me

 My problems came way before partitioning. It simply couldn't
 find the disk image given on the repo=hd:yadda-yadda kernel
 command line. With the Beta, things work fine.

That was https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806966 .

 Unfortunately, the next problem is (somewhat) related to
 partitioning - it can't properly install grub2 in the
 partition versus the MBR:
 
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=804835
 
 I have somewhat worked around that by installing the
 grub2 from f16 in the f17 partition.

That's still notabug, I think. See my comment. Even if it wasn't, the
fault isn't anaconda's. It installs grub2 into the partition just fine.
The code for doing so did not change in any way from F16 to F17, or from
F17 Alpha to F17 Beta. It's in pyanaconda/bootloader.py if you want to
look.

  Um, no it didn't. It had a full set of install options and defaulted to

  That sounds like you wound up with text mode install, for some reason,
  which gives you a minimal package set and no choice about it. If that
  happens and you didn't explicitly request it, the important question
  becomes 'why did I wind up in text mode', and the answer is usually
  'there's some kind of bug in the graphics driver for my video adapter'.

Maybe he is like me and has a machine that he can't upgrade.  One of my
machines has an HPT374 IDE RAID controller in it that hasn't worked for
years.  Last distro I cleanly loaded was RHEL4 (Whitebox4 actuallu)  I
managed to brutally hack the kernel in Fedora 10 with an old out of tree
driver from Highpoint (GPL) to have something a little newer and did it
again for F11 but a major kernel update along that line changed
something I couldn't manage to fix.  So that is where that machine stays
until I finally toss the 4x200GB drives in it for a pair of larger ones
connected to the onboard SATA plugs that should be supported.

It is behind a NAT on a home network so I don't worry too much about it
getting hacked.  Firefox is almost certainly vulnerable but you rarely
see active attacks in the wild against Linux browsers, especially if you

Re: automatically mounting physically attached media (was Re: Move from /media to /run/media/$USER)

 OK, so I took a look at the GNOME Disks utility, which I was finally
 able to get to run without crashing, and as far as I can tell, it
 doesn't resolve my main complaint with the new F17 behavior.
 
 Yes, I can use the Disks utility to configure removable devices, e.g.,
 my DVD drive, to mount on startup. But then it isn't going to mount
 in /run/media/$USER, because there's no user logged in yet.
 
 My concern, which I've explained repeatedly and I believe is quite
 legitimate despite all of the flak I've taken for it here, is that the
 behavior of a removable device that is already inserted when I log in
 should be exactly the same as the behavior of a removable device that
 I insert after logging in. As far as I can tell the Disks utility
 can't achieve that. If I'm wrong, please explain to me exactly how I
 should configure, e.g., my DVD drive in the Disks utility so that if
 there's a DVD in the drive when I log in, it will be mounted
 under /run/media/$USER automatically.
 
 (And, while you're at it, explain to me why this shouldn't be the
 default behavior, which I've yet to see anyone here explain, as far as
 I recall.)

If you set a specific mount location for a device in that tool - i.e. in
fstab - it will be used even if the device is connected after login.

Yes, I'm aware of that, but that's not what I want.

If it is the position of the Fedora developers that /run/media/$USER is
the right place for stuff to be mounted, and I don't have a particular
problem with that decision, then I want /that/ behavior, i.e., the
behavior that the developers think is correct, /with/ the F16 behavior
of the device being mounted automatically when I log in.

Why /shouldn't/ it act that way?

Re: Draft SOP for requesting TCs/RCs

  One remark to this paragraph:
  
   It is theoretically possible that the situation could arise where
   a release candidate is requested and built, and results in multiple
   blockers being reported and accepted, some of which are easy to fix and
   some of which are not; in this case a subsequent compose to test the easy
   fixes may be desirable, but could not be denoted a release candidate due
   to the presence of the other un-addressed blockers. In this case a new
   test compose could be requested. This is obviously somewhat confusing,
   however, so it is best to try and get all the blockers fixed and request
   a new release candidate instead.
  
  I don't believe this is a good idea. I would rather have QA team vote
  on exceptional circumstances and call it another RC. There's no
  point in calling it TC just to satisfy some criteria.
  
  TC and RC naming is confusing already. RC  TC, but not
  alphabetically. Having e.g. TC1  RC1  RC2  TC2  RC3 is a complete
  mess, arcane knowledge that only QA team would have. Since we
  generally ask also other parties to perform testing, we should have
  the naming pattern as obvious and straightforward as possible. Let's
  call it RC and lets clearly state that this is an exceptional process
  that should happen just rarely.
 
 BTW, your line wrapping seems to be broken again :)
 
 Yeah, I'm not super happy with it either. I mainly just included it
 because we nearly actually *did* it once.
 
 The thing is, I'm not really happy with the alternative you suggest
 (calling it an RC) either. I really think it's a good thing to stick to
 a strict definition, and a release candidate, strictly, is a build you
 believe can be the release. A build which is known to include a blocker
 simply is not a release candidate. It could not possibly be released.
 
 So I'd love if we could come up with a third way. I'm wondering if we
 should simply leave this unaddressed in the SOP and deal with it on the
 fly if the situation ever arises. I think perhaps we should give any
 such build a label that's different from both TC and RC, if it ever
 happens.
 
 Any bright ideas, anyone?

We did have a few different bright ideas, but they're all rather bigger
changes that might be better off being discussed separately from this
SOP.

So how about this: what if we put the current draft into production but
entirely leave out the paragraph about doing a TC release after an RC
release, so the SOP just doesn't cover the case at all? That would at
least document current practice reasonably well.

Then I'll try and find some time to synthesize all the ideas that came
later in this thread, about revising TC/RC naming and so on, and maybe
go back in time as well because I recall some similar proposals being
made on devel a year or so back. I'll try and come up with some kind of
comprehensive proposal covering all those ideas, in terms of actually
revising the process itself. This SOP proposal was really just intended
to be a document _describing_ current practice, I didn't have changing
the practice in mind when writing it.

If that sounds okay to everyone, I'll put the SOP minus the
controversial paragraph into 'production' tomorrow, and then work on the
new 'change the process' proposal when I can. Thanks!

Re: Yum upgrade F16 - F17

 I did test upgrade with yum following info on
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum

 After doing succesfull usrmove i did upgrade with:
 yum --releasever=17 update rpm
 rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__*
 rpm --rebuilddb
 yum --releasever=17 distro-sync

 If i boot after that i see that kernel is not updated and shutdown doesnt 
 work.

 If i run yum update after distro-sync, there is still packages updating:

 These results are both actually expected for a typical F16 config
 (though they surprised you :).

 The distro-sync operation will not have used the updates-testing
 repository, because this repo wouldn't have been enabled before the
 operation. The kernel in F17's current 'stable' repo is older than the
 newest F16 kernel, so it's normal that when you do this kind of upgrade
 - and, indeed, when you do a DVD upgrade using the Beta - you don't get
 a new kernel. It's also normal that a subsequent 'yum update' shows more
 updates available, because the 'distro-sync' installs a new
 fedora-release, with the updates-testing repository *enabled* by default
 - so on the next yum operation, all those packages in updates-testing
 show up.

 Bit surprising, sure, but actually, everything there works as it's
 intended to.

 If you want to do a one-step upgrade you could add
 '--enablerepo=updates-testing' to the 'distro-sync' operation.

Ok this makes sense. So this is problem only exists when F17 is in
beta, when released distro-upgrade would update all needed packages.

Thanks for clarifying this.

Re: No way to add a new app launcher from Gnome 3.x GUI?

2012-04-18 Thread Richard Ryniker
But no, right clicking on empty space doesn't do diddly squat in the
Gnome 3 Applications screen.

I do not think a click on nothing is persuasively intuative as a way to
create an application launcher.

Who wants diddly squats littering the screen, anyway?

For programs that can be found through the Applications function (top
left corner in the default desktop arrangement), a right click on the
desired application and selection of Add to favorites seems rather
intuitive.

I suspect your concern may be for an easy way to add new programs
to the Applications function, which is a more obscure matter.  Something
that creates a .desktop file in the right way, perhaps?

I appreciate your reply, and don´t get me wrong, but anybody else
understands how counter-intuititive this whole thing is?. Why need to
call an external program to create a new program launcher? are Gnome
devs nuts?

It should be a function of the bloody desktop, sheesh!.

Imagine in Windows or OSX if to create a new program launcher you were
told to find program Cardmudgeon to do the operation...

Again, User Experience, they have heard of it...

And I´ve used a number of desktops from GEOS back in the Commodore 64
days to AmigaOS to the OS/2 Workplace Shell. None were as awkward and
incomplete as Gnome 3.x is in some areas.

Three use cases in which in my opinion the behavior is clearly incorrect:

Case 1:

 1. Put DVD in drive while logged in. DVD is mounted.
 2. Reboot computer and log back in. DVD is not mounted. It should be.

Case 2:

 1. Put DVD in drive before logging in. DVD is not mounted.
 2. Log in. DVD is not mounted. It should be.

Case 3:

 1. Put DVD in drive while logged in. DVD is mounted.
 2. Log out. DVD stays mounted under /run/media/$USER. It should have
been unmounted when you logged out.
 3. Log back in as another user. DVD is still mounted under

 So, I'm a bit confused. I tried to reproduce this with a USB stick today.

 If I plug it in while I'm logged in, it shows up. I log out and log back in,
 and it still shows up.

 If I reboot, plug it in during GDM, and then log in... it shows up. Under
 what circumstance does it not show up for you?

OK, I´m progressing but not at the speed I´d wish.
I looked at the Xorg log files and the last thing it loaded before the hang
were the vbox drivers.

I remember the last thing I had installed before the reboot was the vbox
ose plugins.

So I went to the xorg libs dir and removed vbox*.

I guess I was wrong to remove the files without removing the references to
them, as now the system boots to a point where the monitors put themselves
in power-saving mode (blinking power led) and I can´t even do ctrl-alt-f2
to get to a login prompt.

So, I´d really appreciate if someone more knowledgeable about Xorg snafus
would give me a generic recipe to get my system back to at least vesa mode.

I guess booting from grub 2.0 in single user mode would be first right?

Re: automatically mounting physically attached media (was Re: Move from /media to /run/media/$USER)

2012-04-18 Thread Richard Ryniker
If I plug it in while I'm logged in, it shows up. I log out and log back in,
and it still shows up.

If I reboot, plug it in during GDM, and then log in... it shows up. Under
what circumstance does it not show up for you?

If your USB stick is plugged in before you boot your system, where does it
show up?  Nowhere.  The device node is created (/dev/sd...) but it is not
mounted.  (Yes, I believe an entry in /etc/fstab will help in some
cirsumstances.)

Root can mount the device, but behavior then varies.  Mount over /x is
normal but mount over /home/desktop user/x causes the Gnome desktop to pop
up a menu that offers: Open with files or Eject.  Eject will only
work after authentication (quite proper - the device was mounted by
root) whereas automatic mount over /run/media/desktop user/label
allows the user to Eject without authentication.

None of this is intrinsically terrible, but there is a surfeit of
different behaviors that will likely confuse many users at one time or
another.  This feels like a consensus issue: with no agreed strategy
about what should happen, programmers wrote whatever seemed appropriate
for the case they were coding.

Aha, for this last one it's a timing issue... if it scans slow enough that
it 'appears' during the session, it will be mounted.

It shows up in the file manager; it's not mounted.

Why not?

In F16, it was mounted.

In Windows, it's mounted.

In Mac OS, it's mounted.

Why should F17 behave differently from F17 and from every other
mainstream OS people are familiar with?

What is the justification for this different, unexpected, non-intuitive
behavior?

Okay the silence was educative, for me, :) forced me to learn things on my own.
Indeed, as I suspected, the problem was the Vbox add-ons (VirtualBox-OSE-Guest).

I manually went to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and removed 00-vboxvideo.conf

Rebooted and all is well.

  No, you'd be wasting your time. It's hidden intentionally because it's
  considered deprecated in GNOME 3. The GNOME devs don't like the whole

 Okay, and the replacement is?.

Suspend and resume, apparently. If you always suspend rather than

 Ok this makes sense. So this is problem only exists when F17 is in
 beta, when released distro-upgrade would update all needed packages.

It still wouldn't install packages from updates-testing; but the default
configs for both 16 and 17 would have that repo disabled, so there would

Re: 8 GB USB with DVD: formatted as GPT with 4 GB partition fat /dev/sdb1 2nd 4 GB left,unformatted

2012-04-18 Thread Thomas C Gilliard

I suppose since all that is installed on

 the /dev/sdb1 LIVE partition is

  LiveOS   - 130.4 MB
  syslinux   -  29.4 MB

  Properties: 159.9 MB used
   5.2 GB  free
  Filesystem type:msdos


 the /dev/sdb2 LIVE-REPO contains a 2.5 GB .iso file.

  Properties: 2.5 GB used
168.9 MB free
  Filesystem type:msdos

It could be  much smaller.
Looks like a 4 GB USB should work well for this.

I did not use the graphical liveusb-creator to build this installer DVD 
USB however.

 Then the bug should be moved to grub2, because it sure is a bug.

If grub2 isn't designed to be chainloaded in that way, it isn't. Like I
said, I believe the answer is simply 'to chainload grub2 you load
core.img, rather than using the chainloader command'.

  Oh, I see. I don't know about that. I don't know if there's a way to

The problem is with the definition of 'shows up'. GNOME will show such
devices in Nautilus, file chooser etc, but it doesn't actually automount
until you try to access it through such a graphical app. So you can't
access it through the terminal unless you mount it manually or go click
on it in Nautilus to get it mounted first.

I disagree.  Alphas obviously have bugs, but when the *same* bug (or
different bugs with the same symptoms) are present in alpha after alpha

I missed that reference. Could you add it to the bug report?

Where is this documented?

I don't see it as being a release blocking issue in any event. If you
want to chainload, you can. If it can be 'fixed' then it would be nice
to do so, of course.

 Why should F17 behave differently from F17 and from every other

 What is the justification for this different, unexpected,

The arguments are really going downhill here. I'm not overly interested

even just automatically sniffing) of media has been construed as a

 In general, we expect an application to bring a suitable desktop file so
 it is usable after you installed it. That is even part of the packaging
 guidelines, last I checked.
 
 If the application you want a launcher for is something you created
 yourself, I don't think it is outrageous to expect you to write a
 desktop file after you already wrote the application...

And nobody ever needed a launcher for a script or downloaded an app
outside the package manager or did anything but be a nice little end
user and let the GNOMEs take care of everything.  Steve Jobs is smiling
somewhere.

I make .desktop files on a regular basis to fire off ssh sessions and
such.  Or did until I abandoned GNOME and found XFCE won't launch ssh
via a .desktop link under some circumstances I haven't understood yet.
Some of my existing desktop links work, others don't and I haven't
nailed down the cause yet.

Point being, creating app shortcuts is something a medium skill user
should be expected to be able to figure out.  Telling em to 'go fish'
isn't really an answer that anyone should be willing to accept.

Which brings up a good point.  I know that the only way to be sure is
booting the machine from a known good[1] rescue media and then check
with a copy of RPM running from there using the --root option to point
at the suspect filesystem to ensure the system's rpm binary isn't
trojaned or the kernel patched to show the original executables to rpm.
And even then a REAL enemy would exploit a zero day buffer overflow in
rpm via the infected rpm database.

On the other hand, has there ever been a real case found in the wild of
an infestation that was so good at covering its tracks?  The security
problems I saw in the past were the crudest script kiddies and I haven't
even seen one of those attacks succeed since the 20th Century even on
erratically updated machines.  There aren't a lot of exploits against
Linux to begin with, how many are going for deep penetration that aren't
targeted hits by intelligence agencies?  If the NSA wants to look at
your or my machine they will and we will almost certainly never have a
clue they were there.

In short, just how theoretical an attack am I expending effort to repel?

[1] And that IS the nub of the problem now isn't it; and the gateway to
insanity.  Do you trust the rescue media and/or the machine that
downloaded and burned it?

Honestly, I'm not sure there's any difference at all between 'mount on
attach' and 'mount on any attempt to access' from a security POV. I
think the decision to change this was a good one, and I doubt it'll make
many people unhappy - and as several commenters have pointed out, it's
only in line with what every other OS we can think of does by default,
and what Fedora / GNOME has always done in the past.

I'm not any kind of security expert, but I'm pretty sure the answer to
your first question is 'yes' and the answer to your last is 'not
theoretical'. One interesting thing to do is look at the things
chkrootkit checks for. As far as I'm aware, most of the chkrootkit
checks are responses to real-world attacks. If you look at the checks,
you can deduce that some of the attacks are pretty sophisticated.

Oh, I'm pretty sure quite a lot real-world attacks work in ways that an
rpm -Va check wouldn't expose, without needing to actually mung the rpm
-Va operation in any way - simply by using files that aren't rpm
tracked, for instance. But yeah, I'm not an expert on security at all, I
only know enough to be a danger to myself and others. ;)

 Honestly, I'm not sure there's any difference at all between 'mount on
 attach' and 'mount on any attempt to access' from a security POV. 

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gvfs/commit/?id=e30a67f3215d829e95ee7e358c67af7d67635fe8

is an example for the kind of unhappiness you get - and there's also
very little difference between doing something automatically while the
screen is locked or doing something automatically with an already
plugged in device on login or unlock.
