Re: Root exploit

I compiled the patch for my 2.6.18-5-amd64 and it fixed it. I changed
the printf stuff to %p but that's not really necessary, it would work
anyway.

Wel it dit for mine. Latest kernel patches that just came out are supposed to 
fix the bug.
I'll test that out tomorrow.

kompozer

2008-02-11 Thread Karl Schmidt
Has anyone built a deb for kompozer that works on AMD64? (Hard to understand why this 
package hasn't made it into Debian (it is a for fork for the abandoned nvu project).

initng

2008-02-11 Thread Alex Samad
Hi

I was just reading an article on slashdot about ubunto and sysvinit. in it, it 
mentioned about replacement init's one being initng (called prominent).

I was wondering if people of the list were using it.  Will it solve my 
udev/ldap (libnss-ldap) start up problems. Is it worth the effort to change ?

 there was a stop the exploit in the bug report, but it doesn't seem to be 
 available any more, but there was a question about it being only i386

At least the sample exploit doesn't work on my self-compiled vanilla
2.6.24 an AMD64:
