Bug#782336: okular: Cannot print from okular

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: okular
Version: 4:23.08.1-2+b1
Followup-For: Bug #782336

Dear Maintainer,

I'm observing the same behavior.  In my specific case, I was
trying to print a range of pages from a PDF.  Instead, an `lpr` usage
message appeared on the terminal:

```
usage: lpr [-cdfghlmnpqrstv] [-#num] [-1234 font] [-C class] [-i [numcols]]
[-J job] [-Pprinter] [-T title] [-U user] [-wnum] [name ...]
```

`okular` itself reports no error or any other indication that
the print operation failed.

It's not listed in the dependencies below, but I also have
installed:
* cups v2.4.7-1.1+b1
* lpr 1:2008.05.17.3+nmu2

Bug#1002821: lyx-common: String/Bytes Problem in layout2layout.py

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: lyx-common
Version: 2.3.6-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream
X-Debbugs-Cc: ew...@ewhac.org

Dear Maintainer,

Discovered this while trying to use Editorium's LyXBook modules.
layout2layout.py was konking out with "TypeError: cannot use a bytes
pattern on a string-like object."  After a bunch of debugging, I found
some strings in the script that hadn't been bytes-ified, which seemed to
fix the problem.  Patch attached.

Not that I'm any kind of expert on Debian policy, but a naive
reading of section 2.2.1 suggests that the libraries needed for CUDA support
could be listed as "Suggests" (rather than "Recommends" or "Depends") and
still qualify for inclusion in 'main'.

We're not talking about CUDA; we're talking about OpenCL.  I was
merely illustrating that 'darktable' has no issue using the OpenCL
support on my NVIDIA card.  The presence of the word "CUDA" is an artifact
of the device version reported by NVIDIA's OpenCL stack.

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: blender
Version: 2.80+dfsg-3+b1
Followup-For: Bug #939145

Dear Maintainer,

This may be related:  When attempting to enable OpenCL in the
preferences, a small panel appears claiming: "No compatible GPUs found
for path tracing.  Cycles will render on the CPU."

I have an NVIDIA GTX-1070Ti with proprietary DKMS drivers
installed, version 430.40.  I also have Darktable installed;
`darktable-cltest` runs successfully, and (in part) outputs the
following info:

```

 GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE:  8116MB
 MAX_WORK_GROUP_SIZE:  1024
 MAX_WORK_ITEM_DIMENSIONS: 3
 MAX_WORK_ITEM_SIZES:  [ 1024 1024 64 ]
 DRIVER_VERSION:   430.40
 DEVICE_VERSION:   OpenCL 1.2 CUDA
```

Hope this helps.

Bug#939622: blender: Subdivision Surface Modifier Doesn't Work

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: blender
Version: 2.80+dfsg-3+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Many introductory YouTube videos to Blender make use of the
Subdivision Surface modifier.  It was while following one of these
tutorials for the new Blender 2.8 that I noticed it's not working.

To reproduce:
- Launch Blender
- Press DEL or 'X' to delete the default cube.
- Press SHIFT-A; add a torus or sphere to the workspace.
- In the right-hand properties panel, click on the
  wrench/spanner icon to enter the modifiers panel.
- Click on Add Modifier; select Subdivision Surface.

What should happen is that the faces of the sphere/torus you
added above should be subdivided to yield a finer mesh.  Further, by
increasing the value of the Viewport value, you should be able to
increase the amount of subdivision.

In my installation, nothing happens, and the displayed mesh
remains unchanged.

Next, click on the Apply button in the modifier panel.
Normally, this "commits" the subdivided mesh to the workspace, replacing
the original.  In my installation, an error is displayed, reading:

"Modifier returned error; skipping apply"

Some brief Googling consistently suggested that this issue is
related to a stale or misconfigured build directory; hence this report.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Schwab

Hrm.  I don't think it's the kernel that saved you.

Try this:
- Have a rescue boot volume handy (CD, DVD, USB stick, etc.).
- Save off a copy of /boot/initrd.img-4.18.0-?-amd64 (or whatever
  your actual version is) to a safe place.
- As root, run "update-initramfs -u -k all".  The "-k all" arguments
  will update all available initramfs images to contain udev 240-2
  (not just the latest one).
- Reboot.

If your experience is anything like mine, you will once again be
dropped to an initramfs prompt with no modules loaded, illustrating that the
problem is not kernel-specific.

- Reboot using the rescue disk, and move your working initrd.img.*
  file back into place; reboot.

BTW, someone might want to have a word with the DEB repository
people and have them put back 239-15, because 240-x is clearly not ready for
prime time.

What's going wrong is that there are no kernel modules loaded,
including 'ahci' which runs the SATA bus.

Just for laughs, I re-installed udev 240-2 and rebooted.  As before,
the boot failed, leaving me at an initramfs prompt.  'lsmod' reported no
kernel modules loaded, and the directory /dev/disk did not exist.

I then ran 'modprobe ahci' at the command prompt, and immediately
heard some brief chattering from the disks.  I then found the /dev/sd*
devices had been created, and the /dev/disk tree had been populated,
including /dev/disk/by-uuid.  'lsmod' now reported sd_mod, sr_mod, cdrom,
ahci, libahci, libata, and scsi_mod as loaded.

So, something that used to trigger kernel module loading isn't
happening anymore.

BTW, my rootfs is not encrypted, so 'cryptsetup' isn't involved.

Oh, sorry, left out partition info.

/etc/fstab by itself won't make much sense, as it's all UUIDs.
Further, the system dual-boots Win7 and Linux, spending most of its time in
the latter.

There is no mdadm config; I deleted the package from the system
earlier when trying to diagnose the issue.

After scrounging up a PS/2 keyboard (because, again, USB is dead), I
managed to get the info you requested:

'lsmod' prints nothing.  /proc/modules is empty.

Bug#839239: xserver-xorg-core: slight tearing with Intel modesetting driver

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.20.0-2
Followup-For: Bug #839239

This issue still exists in the latest version.  It should be noted
that this issue is (usually) papered over if you have window compositing
enabled.

The root cause is obviously that rectangular blits are being
decomposed (by glamor?  By OpenGL itself?) into two triangles, rendered
sequentially.  Thus, there is a brief window of time where half of the
window frame is filled with new pixels (just drawn by the first triangle),
and the other half contains old pixels (shorly to be overdrawn by the second
triangle).  The result is a diagonal "tear" across the window where the
triangle edges meet.

Microsoft made this mistake over a decade ago when they first tried
to leverage Direct3D for their video player.  It looked awful then, too.

If you have a keyboard-driven window manager (such as i3 or
awesome), this is fairly easy to see:
- If you have it enabled, disable window compositing.
- Create two windows -- one containing mostly light-color imagery,
  the other mostly dark imagery.
- Resize both windows to full screen.
- Using the window manager's keyboard shortcuts, cycle between the
  two windows.

If you hold down the keyboard shortcut, the keyboard's auto-repeat
will usually kick in and rapidly ping-pong between the two windows.  The
diagonal "tear" should become apparent.

Note also that, if you resize the window, the "tear" follows the
diagonal axis of the window.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Bug#851066: flashplugin-nonfree: Mismatch between detected and available versions (Download file not available at people.debian.org)

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1:3.7
Followup-For: Bug #851066

Okay, attached is that patch I mentioned in my previous message.
This patch adds a new option to update-flashplugin-nonfree:


--using 
Specifies the name of a local tar file instead of attempting to
discover and download the latest version.  This file is presumed to be a tar
file downloaded by hand from Adobe.com, containing the flash plugin
appropriate for your machine arch.  No checks are performed to ensure the
tar file is authentic; you should download such plugins *only* from
Adobe.com.


Hmm.  Now that I think about it, I should update the docs, too.

Seems to work well for me.  Feedback welcome.

Bug#851066: flashplugin-nonfree: Mismatch between detected and available versions (Download file not available at people.debian.org)

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1:3.7
Followup-For: Bug #851066

Dear Maintainer,

This note is more for followers of this bug than the maintainer.

I decided to spend some non-trivial time to try and craft a patch
that would skip downloading and checking the little information blobs from
~bartm's account, thereby removing the dependency on updates from ~bartm.
After a little while, I concluded that this approach would be nearly
impossible to solve in the general case.

The fundamental problem is that Adobe can't be relied upon to
provide a consistent URL for downloading the Flash tarball.  ~bartm's
solution to this issue appears to have been to extract crucial metadata from
the most current Linux download on Adobe's site (presumably by hand), place
them in a small text file along with some SHA512 hashes, and then GPG-sign
the file.

As a consequence, the files pulled from ~bartm's account contain
crucial metadata that the update-flashplugin-nonfree script needs to locate
and download the plugin from Adobe's site.  Obviously, it is impossible to
parse Adobe's Web pages at runtime, as they rely heavily (and unnecesarily)
on dynamic HTML and JavaScript; and Adobe's download directories don't
enumerate -- you either give it exactly the right URL, or you get a 404.

The next thing I'm going to try is to add an option to unpack and
install an already-downloaded Flash tar file.  Not nearly as seamless, but
far better than people doing it by hand.

Bug#824238: python-coherence: fails comparing twisted versions

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: python-coherence

Seeing this here as well when trying to run the program
'upnp-inspector':

Well, that's embarrassing.

Should I refile against xserver-xorg-core, which contains the

Bug#834095: libcwidget-dev: Bad Declaration in cwidget.pc

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: libcwidget-dev
Version: 0.5.17-4+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Upon installation of libcwidget-dev, 'pkg-config --cflags' returns
an incomplete set of options:


$ pkg-config --cflags cwidget
-I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cwidget -I/usr/include/sigc++-2.0 
-I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sigc++-2.0/include


Missing from this list is '-I/usr/include/cwidget', needed for any
compilation to succeed.  Looking at cwidget.pc, it appears that Cflags is
defined incorrectly, referring to ${includedir} rather than
${pkgincludedir}.  I've attached a diff/patch that fixes the problem on my
local machine.

Bug#833959: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Rendering Performance Impacted

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.99.917+git20160706-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Since updating to the latest Intel driver, I've noted rendering
performance has suffered in some applications.  I've finally identified a
program that reliably exhibits the issue -- 'phosphor' from the xscreensaver
package.

To reproduce:
- Run phosphor by hand:
  /usr/lib/xscreensaver/phosphor
- Wait for the cursor to arrive at the bottom of the window.  When
  the "terminal" scrolls, rendering performance tanks immediately.
  This is doubtless due to the full-window fade effect being
  applied, which has now become very slow.  This slowness was not
  present in previous driver versions.

The system is a Thinkpad X1 Carbon (Gen.3), 1440p display.
'glxinfo' reports the GPU as Intel HD Graphics 5500 (Broadwell GT2).  I have
xscreensaver v5.34-2 installed.

I used to write graphics drivers back in the day, so I can probably
answer obscure questions and run tests.

Thanks,
Schwab

Your position is entirely clear and reasonable.  It's the
implementation I'm having trouble with.

When you install task-xfce-desktop, from a dependency standpoint, it
becomes the "parent" of all things XFCE -- the task is marked as manually
installed; its dependencies are marked as automatically installed, and will
be deleted by the package manager when everything that depends on them goes
away.  If you then delete task-xfce-desktop, all its dependencies lose their
parent, and aptitude happily cleans up all of XFCE.

I admit I'm walking off the edge of my knowledge of Debian policy
and implementation arcana here.  It may be that Debian 'task' packages are
treated specially, and packages installed via a 'task' aren't marked as
automatically installed.  If that's indeed the case, then my bug report is
moot.  If not, then I believe more thought is called for here.

Uh, no, because when you go to delete light-locker, aptitude stops
you because deleting that hard dependency will break task-xfce-desktop.

It sounds like what task-xfce-desktop actually wants to do is depend
on a meta-package ('x-display-locker'?), of which both light-locker and
xscreensaver are members.  Then the user could swap out display lockers
without breaking task-xfce-desktop's requirement that there be *a* display
locker of some sort.

Bug#827562: task-xfce-desktop: Depends on light-locker Should Be Recommends

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: task-xfce-desktop
Version: 3.35
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

task-xfce-desktop has grown a dependency on the package
light-locker, which is billed as a lightweight alternative to xscreensaver.
I suspect this is to track a similar change in xfce4-session, which recently
also added a dependency for light-locker.

However, xfce4-session only Recommends light-locker; it does not
Depends on it.  light-locker at the moment doesn't seem to play well with
xscreensaver, and is something of a nuisance.  For those of us who prefer
xscreensaver, light-locker gets in the way.

I suggest that task-xfce-desktop reduce the dependency on
light-locker from Depends to Recommends.

Bug#820975: flashplugin-nonfree: Update to 11.2.202.616 silently does nothing (ERROR 404: Not Found)

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1:3.6.1+b1
Followup-For: Bug #820975

Dear Maintainer,

Some problem here, only I'm trying to update from .616 to .621.  The
script is attempting to fetch a PGP signature from
https://people.debian.org/~bartm/... to validate the download from Adobe.
However, the signature for .621 doesn't appear to exist yet:

Perhaps someone should poke ~bartm?  .616 has been on Firefox's

Bug#635604: package causes ethernet address to be set to aa:00:04:00:0a:04

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: dnet-common
Version: 2.56
Followup-For: Bug #635604

Concur with previous reporters.  I was experiencing mysterious
network stalls on the two machines on which dnet-common had been hauled in
as a dependency.  It was only by serendipity that I figured out it was
decnet stomping on my MAC addresses, such that both machines ended up with
the same MAC address.

When dnet-common was installed, I was prompted for configuration,
and selected "Configure later," believing (justifiably, I think) that the
decnet infrastructure would not attempt to do anything weird or disruptive
until I'd fully configured it.  This is not the case.  The default
configuration is to alter the MAC address of all available interfaces.

The workaround is to comment out everything in /etc/default/decnet.

It is probably correct that aptitude should not have "helpfully"
pulled in dnet-common as a recommendation of libdnet.  However, I would
still argue that dnet-common shouldn't be messing with fundamental network
settings unless and until the administrator formally configures it and turns
it on.

This device's volume label is detected properly in Windows and on Mac

Bug#630681: /usr/sbin/wpa_gui: When Using nl80211 wpa-driver, Signal Strength is Displayed as Zero

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: wpagui
Version: 0.7.3-3
Severity: normal
File: /usr/sbin/wpa_gui

When using wpa_gui to perform a scan for local WAPs, the signal
strengths in the list of results will be diferent depending on what
wpa-driver you've configured for that interface.

In my case, wpa_supplicant can talk to the iwl3945 driver using
wpa-driver 'wext' or the newer 'nl80211'.  If you configure wext, then the
results displayed by wpa_gui will have meaningful signal strengths
displayed.  If, however, you configure nl80211, then wpa_gui will display
all signal strengths as zero.

I did a little experiment using wpa_cli to look at the scan results.
Here's a sample list of results using wpa-driver wext:

Bug#629153: lyx: Missing Dependencies for Full XeTeX Support

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: lyx
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: minor

Last night I tried enabling support for non-TeX fonts using the
checkbox in the Document -> Settings... panel.  However, I found that the
checkbox was unselectable.  Eventually I discovered that, while 'xetex' was
installed, 'xelatex' was not.  I installed the Debian package
'texlive-xetex', reconfigured and restarted LyX, and the checkbox became
selectable.  (I also had 'luatex' installed, but LyX apparently didn't see
it.)

However, once I tried to create a preview of a document, the
operation failed, claiming that the file 'etoolbox.sty' could not be found.
After mucking around in aptitude for a while, I found the package
'etoolbox'.  After installing it, the new problem went away and I was able
to create documents with non-TeX fonts.

All told, it took me about a half hour to get it working.

Neither of the packages 'texlive-xetex' nor 'etoolbox' are listed as
dependencies of LyX.  Both need to be installed for non-TeX fonts to work.
While they probably shouldn't be marked as "Depends," it might be a good
idea to list them as "Suggests" or possibly "Recommends."

Please consider updating LyX's dependencies to avoid this confusion.

Bug#627280: udisks: Sansa Fuze Detected with Garbage Volume Label

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: udisks
Version: 1.0.2-4
Severity: normal

I can't remember exactly when this stopped working, only that I
remember a time when it did work.  At some point 'udisks' get updated and
now my Sansa Fuze is detected with a garbage volume label.  Windows and Mac
OS X detect this device correctly.

Here's the dmesg output on insertion:

Bug#535534: gnome-settings-daemon Can Die When Running Pan

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 2.30.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #535534

I have also observed gnome-settings-daemon to keel over with a
BadMatch error:


This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 33347 error_code 8 request_code 15 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)


In my case, I can most reliably make it appear by running the 'pan'
newsreader.  About one time in three, gnome-settings-daemon will die as soon
as 'pan's main window appears.

I have 'pan' package version 0.133-1.1 installed.  My window manager
is awesome 3.4.9-1.1.

Bug#622703: modplug-tools: modplugplay Segfaults Immediately After Launch

'modplugplay' throws a segfault immediately after launch.  There is a

Thank you very kindly for your helpful explanation.  My apologies
for posting against the wrong bug; I tried to find the same bug thread I
created the last time this happened (which was around the last major Debian
'stable' release).

Bug#529540: packages.debian.org: Changelogs on Updated 'unstable' Packages Not Copied to changelogs/pool

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: www.debian.org
Followup-For: Bug #529540


For about the last two weeks, packages receiving updates in the
'unstable' repository have not had their changelogs copied to the
changelogs/pool/... area of packages.debian.org, with the result that
'aptitude' displays a 404 error when asked to display the changelogs of
recently updated packages.

Example (from unstable/sid as of today):

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/a/aptitude/aptitude_0.6.3-4/changelog

Not all changelogs are missing; only the ones associated with packages
that have been updated in the last two weeks or so.

Based on previous commentary on this bug, I'm given to understand there
is some conflict that occasionally makes these missing updates unavoidable.
Any guesstimates on when this current manifestation might clear up?

Actually, I was able reproduce it fairly reliably on this machine
(which is of limited help to you guys, I know...).

In case it matters: The machine is a Sony VAIO VGN-S150 with 512M of
RAM.  This was the first of the now-retired S-series VAIOs.

I still have access to this machine, and I'm no stranger to writing
device drivers and compiling kernels.  So if you need some especially weird
tests run, I can probably do it.  However, the turnaround time may be a
little long, as the machine is now in a remote location.

Thanks,

Bug#560126: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Launching GL Apps Corrupts System

[Leo L. Schwab]

Further information:

- An extended 'smartctl' test revealed no errors.  So it's probably
  not the disk.
- 'debsums -s' reported errors for a couple of files in OpenOffice;
  everything else was fine.

I also did some fiddling with options in xorg.conf this morning.

Setting AGPMode to 1 does not improve behavior.  Setting
AGPFastWrites to False does not improve behavior.  The system still goes to
pieces when GL kicks in.

Setting DRI to False improves things -- GL acceleration is disabled,
but the system remains stable.

This is basically a virgin 'testing' install.

The machine is a Sony VAIO VGN-S150 laptop.  This machine was
decommissioned about two years ago when the keyboard inexplicably died.
Prior to that, it was running Debian 'unstable' on a daily basis just fine,
including GL acceleration.

The keyboard just as inexplicably came back to life recently, and
I've been experimenting with various desktops as a prelude to gifting it to
my mother.  But then this corruption issue surfaced.

It's a Sony, so I suppose it's possible the machine has traded a
broken keyboard for a broken graphics chip (is there a way to test this?),
but it has never been subjected to any abuse.  It also passes MemTest86+
without issue, so it would not seem to be a problem with flaky memory.

The laptop in question isn't being used for anything (yet), so I can
subject it to any form of diagnostic abuse you choose :-).

I wholeheartedly agree.

Bug#529540: Changelogs Missing on Security Updates

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal

Okay, so, after reading the entire thread on this bug (yes, I should
have done that first), it seems that the changelogs are always present in
the package proper, they're just not always up to date on the server.  The
tone of the response suggests this is considered not a problem.

I dissent.

When you press 'C' in aptitude to view the changelog for a package,
aptitude goes to packages.debian.org to snarf it down and show it to you.
This seems a perfectly reasonable way to go about it, and it also seems
perfectly reasonable to want to view the changelog before downloading a
potentially large package update.  However, I confess complete ignorance on
the difficulties of keeping packages.debian.org humming along.

If it is indeed unreasonable to expect the changelogs on the server
to be in sync with the packages, then should I instead be filing a
enhancement request against 'aptitude', so it will fish the changelog out of
the packages proper?

Bug#529540: Changelogs Missing on Security Updates

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: www.debian.org

It's happening again.  This time, the packages affected are:
- xulrunner-1.9
- xulrunner-1.9-gnome-support
- libexpat1-dev
- libexpat1
- libmozjs1d

These are marked as critical security updates, but the changelogs
are completely missing, so I've no idea what was wrong or what's been fixed.

Please investigate this matter.

Bug#541623: gnome-power-manager: g-p-m Destroys Xorg DPMS Settings

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.24.4-3
Severity: normal

I have a slightly odd setup here -- I don't run GNOME, but I do run
gnome-power-manager by hand, since it's the only utility (so far) that
nicely handles the ACPI suspend and hibernate events.  With a recent update
to g-p-m, I've noticed that the display is no longer blanking after some
minutes of inactivity.  I've traced this to the DPMS settings in the X
server (reported via xset) being reset to zero.

gnome-settings-daemon is running; gnome-screensaver is not (nor is
it going to).  xscreensaver is not running, either.

To observe the problem:
- Login to an X session that does not launch GNOME services or
  helpers by default (such as Windowmaker).
- Run 'xset -q'.  The default DPMS timeout settings should be
  reported (your local config may vary):
DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 600Suspend: 1200Off: 1200
  DPMS is Enabled
  Monitor is On
- Launch gnome-power-manager in the background.
- Run 'xset -q' again.  The DMPS timeout settings have been
  destroyed:
DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 0Suspend: 0Off: 0
  DPMS is Enabled
  Monitor is On

If you use xset to restore the DPMS timeouts, they will be erased
again if you interact at all with g-p-m, including using the ACPI keys to
suspend the system.

Please investigate this matter.

Bug#529540: packages.debian.org: Changelogs Now Missing from *All* Updated Packages

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal

Since about the middle of last week, changelogs have been missing from
all package updates arriving in 'unstable'.  Packages that have not been
updated so recently still have changelogs.  It seems as if the act of
updating the package deletes the changelog.

This is firmly in the "not good" category.  Please investigate.

Bug#529540: packages.debian.org: Changelogs Missing on Security Updates

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: important


About two weeks ago, a security-related update for 'xpdf' appeared
in aptitude's Security Updates section.  Pressing 'C' to see what the issue
was, aptitude informed me that it couldn't fetch the changelog.  This has
continued to be the case for the last two weeks.

Just a day or so ago, 'linux-source-2.6.26' appeared in the Security
Updates section, but its changelog is also missing.

Please investigate this matter.

Bug#523594: laptop-mode-tools: Patch to Handle 'udevinfo' -> 'udevadm' Migration

[Leo L. Schwab]

I bumped in to the same issue the previous poster did.  So I cobbled
together a patch that should handle the transition from 'udevinfo' to
'udevadm'.  It seems to work for me, but it hasn't undergone especially
rigorous testing.

It's actually been going away since 2.6.23 (I just looked at the
Kconfig).

To be completely fair, enabling /proc/acpi/event is a kernel option
(CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT).  It is expressly marked as deprecated in the
Kconfig, but most distros seem to be turning it on, anyway, because the
userspace tools have been moving very slowly.  And the userspace tools have
been moving very slowly because the deprecated behavior is still turned on.

I compile my own kernel, and forced the issue on my box, which is
why I notice this stuff.

I've already noticed this fight going on, which is one of the
reasons I uninstalled acpid entirely.  Without looking at it in detail, I
think the packages acpid and/or acpi-support may need to be marked as
conflicting with pm-utils, since they both process the same class of events,
and both are written expecting to be the exclusive processor thereof.

In the case of laptop_mode, it seems to avoid doing redundant work
by keeping track of its current state, so I would expect it could be invoked
any number of times without clobbering things.

Correct.  Since /proc/acpi/event has been deprecated since at least
2.6.24, 'acpid' just plain won't work.  Ergo, acpi-support won't work, and
neither will anything that plugs into that framework.  ACPI events are now
broadcast over the regular kernel input event system, which get picked up by
HAL and friends.

And, back when /proc/acpi/event still existed, those scripts ran for
me just great.  No longer.  Hence, my new script.

Yes, in fact, I had noticed this some weeks ago.  However, the
solution there is incomplete.  Scripts in sleep.d are invoked when the
system transitions into/out of suspend-to-RAM or suspend-to-disk and, in
fact, the scripts there work perfectly for me.

However, power state changes -- plugging and unplugging the AC
adapter -- are not handled through sleep.d (since the system isn't
sleeping), but rather through power.d.  This was the support I added.

Thanks,

Bug#495036: laptop-mode-tools Not Hooked into pm-utils

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: laptop-mode-tools
Version: 1.47-1
Followup-For: Bug #495036

I have a similar issue on a Thinkpad Z61t.  When I plug/unplug the
AC adapter, laptop_mode is not invoked to change the power settings.  Since
/proc/acpi/event (and therefore 'acpid') is deprecated, everything's moving
to pm-utils.

Attached is a quick bash script I wrote that plugs in to the
pm-utils framework and runs laptop_mode when the power state changes.  It
should be placed in  /etc/pm/power.d .  You may wish to add it or its moral
equivalent to the laptop-mode-tools distribution.

Thanks,
Schwab

Bug#514653: 'iw list' Loops Infinitely

Bug#513455: fax: Can't Handle Filenames with Whitespace

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: efax
Version: 1:0.9a-19
Severity: important
Tags: patch


The 'fax' frontend program can't handle filenames with spaces in
them.  The filename is split apart at whitespace, and the script dies
shortly thereafter with a file not found error.

I've attempted to fix the script to handle filenames properly; the
patch is attached.  Extremely rudimentary testing suggests it works.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Bug#495458: pmount Claims USB Starage Volume Not Removable; Won't Mount

sysfs quite clearly shows the device as removable:


$ cat /sys/block/sdb/removable 
1


This exact same device mounts without issue using 'gnome-mount' and
plain old vanilla 'mount'.

Please investigate thie matter.

Bug#481312: acpi-support-base: Installation Fails if /proc/acpi/event Not Present

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: acpi-support-base
Version: 0.109-1
Severity: important

If /proc/acpi/event is not present, acpi-support-base
installation fails with the following message:


Setting up acpi-support-base (0.109-1) ...
acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: No such file or directory
invoke-rc.d: initscript acpid, action "restart" failed.
dpkg: error processing acpi-support-base (--configure):


Beginning with kernel 2.6.24, the config help text recommends
turning off CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT, as ACPI events, "are now delivered
to user-space via either the input layer, or as netlink events."  With
this turned off, /proc/acpi/event is not created, which causes 'acpid'
to fail on launch.

So, either:
- acpi-support-base should tolerate the absence of
  /proc/acpi/event, since the scripts are leveraged by more than
  just acpid; or,
- acpi-support-base should fail more gracefully if
  /proc/acpi/event is not present; or,
- the package description should very clearly state that ACPI
  event support must be present.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Followup-For: Bug #476641

Neglected to consider that .reportbugrc would cache my old email
address, which stopped working about a month ago.  So if email to me is
bouncing, that's why.

Use the email address associated with this message; it's

Bug#476641: gkrellm: /proc/acpi Battery Interface Deprecated in 2.6.24, Must Use sysfs

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: gkrellm
Version: 2.3.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Having just downloaded and compiled 2.6.24 for Debian, I note in
the kernel configurator that the proc entries /proc/acpi/battery and
/proc/acpi/ac_adapter are deprecated, and that all future power/battery
stuff should go through the sysfs interfaces.  gkrellm 2.3.1 doesn't do
this yet.

So I wrote a patch.  I've no idea how "correct" it is, but it
seems to work for me.  If it passes muster, please apply to the
mainline.

Bug#461829: seahorse-agent Improperly Caches SSH Keys by Default; Refuses to Relinquish Them

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: seahorse
Version: 2.20.3-1
Severity: important

seahorse-agent upon startup appears to sniff through my ~/.ssh
directory, find any SSH identity keys, and automagically add them to
ssh-agent.  This appears to be default behavior, and is really, really
wrong.

I have a peculiar setup here.  I regularly connect to a remote
server in two ways: password-authenticated (no key exchange), and key-
authenticated without passphrase.  The password-authenticated mode I use
for interactive sessions.

The key-without-passphrase mode I use to fetch mail from the
remote IMAP server ('fetchmail' is configured to launch the tunnel).
The remote host is configured, when receiving that particular key, to
launch imapd (and only imapd).  Thus, the IMAP session is secure against
snoopers.

But then seahorse-agent waltzes in, sees an identity key in
~/.ssh and, without so much as a peep, adds it to the ssh-agent.  This
means that, when attempting an interactive session, ssh-agent will
helpfully provide the SSH key bound to imapd, and I end up staring at an
IMAP protocol banner.

Further, when I attempt to remove the cached key via
'ssh-add -D', seahorse-agent (presumably) adds it right back again.

After some Googling around, I discovered this broken behavior
can be disabled via seahorse-preferences, so my immediate issue is
solved.  Nevertheless, I contend this, at the very least, should not be
default behavior, and in fact should be seriously reconsidered.  There
is absolutely no way for seahorse-agent to know the policy
considerations attached to any keys it may find lurking in ~/.ssh, and
therefore should not -- by default, anyway -- be trying to do anything
"clever" or "helpful" with them.

Please investigate this matter.

Thanks,
Schwab

Bug#459881: hotkey-setup: thinkpad-keys Generates KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP Event on DPMS Standby/Suspend

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: hotkey-setup
Version: 0.1-17.1
Severity: normal

When Xwindows' DPMS (display power mamangement) kicks in and
turns the display off to save power, thinkpad-keys incorrectly sees this
as a change in display brightness, and generates a KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP
event.  This event resets the idle timer, cancelling DPMS mode and
turning the display back on.  Rinse, repeat...

Looking at the source code, my *guess* is that the
'brightness_moved' bit is being changed by the ACPI BIOS when DPMS is
engaged, but thinkpad-keys doesn't cross-check that the 'brightness'
field actually changed value, and generates a KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP event as
a result.

To reproduce:
- Launch X.
- Force DPMS to engage:
bash$ xset dpms force standby
- The display will briefly blank, then re-activate.  This is due
  to the event generated by thinkpad-keys.
- Kill thinkpad-keys.
bash# kill `pidof thinkpad-keys`
- Force DPMS to engage again.
- The display remains blanked.

You can actually see this happen using the 'evtest' program and
running it against the /dev/input/event* node that carries the events
generated by thinkpad-keys.  A KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP event will appear when
DPMS engages.

Note that DPMS blanking is distinct from "screensaver" blanking,
the latter of which usually happens before DPMS is engaged.  Both forms
of blanking are controlled by 'xset'  One way to (quickly) illustrate
that it's DPMS activity that's confusing thinkpad-keys is to set the
various blanking timeouts to brief intervals:
bash$ xset s 10 10
bash$ xset dpms 20 30 40

This sets the "screensaver" timeout to ten seconds, DPMS Standby
to 20 seconds, DPMS Suspend to 30 seconds, and DPMS Off to 40 seconds.

After ten seconds, the display will enter "screensaver"
blanking.  Ten seconds after that, DPMS Standby will be engaged, causing
thinkpad-keys to emit KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP, and the display will wake back
up again.

Please investigate.  You may wish to coordinate your solution
with the author(s) of the thinkpad_acpi (nee ibm_acpi) kernel module.

Thanks,
Schwab

Bug#457049: apt-spy: Confused by Leading Blanks in mirrors.txt

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: apt-spy
Version: 3.1-17
Severity: important

apt-spy appears to be confused by lines in mirrors.txt that have
leading blanks.  Once apt-spy hits a line with leading blanks, it seems
to assume it has reached the end of the server list and stops.  This is
especially irritating when trying to scan US servers, as the first entry
(ftp.us.debian.org) is followed by a line with leading blanks (a list of
aliases?).

To reproduce:
- Install a fresh copy of apt-spy.
- Run the following command as root:
apt-spy -d unstable -s US
  apt-spy will scan ftp.us.debian.org and then stop.

Workaround:
- Load /var/lib/apt-spy/mirrors.txt into an editor.
- Scroll down to the list of US servers.
- Delete the line immediately following the entry for
  ftp.us.debian.org, which contains leading blanks.  (I do not
  know the significance or meaning of this line.)
- Save the file.
- Re-run apt-spy:
apt-spy -d unstable -s US
- All US servers in the list will now be scanned.

Please investigate.

Bug#455456: wireless-tools: iwconfig Fails to Print SSID

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: wireless-tools
Version: 29-1
Severity: important

'iwconfig' when invoked with no arguments sometimes fails to
print the SSID of the currently associated AP.  My seat-of-the-pants
guess is that it has something to do with the length of the SSID string.

Here's a session showing iwconfig associating with two different
APs.  Both associate correctly, but only the first one prints out when
'iwconfig' is run with no arguments:

Bug#454726: xscreensaver-gl: New Saver 'lockward' Missing from 5.04 Release

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: xscreensaver-gl
Version: 5.04-1
Severity: minor

The newest release of xscreensaver has a new saver called
'lockward'.  This saver is not present in the Debian package.

More generally, there are several savers/hacks which appear in
the list of available savers, but are not actually installed (such as
m6502, Xmountains, Xsnow, SphereEversion, and others).  Are there
reasons for excluding particular savers?

The principal reason I'm interested in seeing 'lockward' in the
Debian package(s) is because I wrote it.

When 'acpitool' is run on my system, no matter the arguments,
the following message is printed:

/proc/acpi is present and working on this system, including
battery data, but the kernel was not configured with CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS

Also done.  The problem persists.

I received private email from a gentleman who suggests switching
from JRE 6 to JRE 5 might help (except, near as I can tell, Eclipse isn't

I also deleted the ~/.eclipse directory before running the trace.

It sure *feels* like there's stale state information laying around
somewhere, but I wouldn't know where to begin looking.

The latest updates of what?  I have the latest versions of eclipse
(3.2.2-4) and libgtk2.0-0 (2.12.0-3) installed from unstable.  I've also
updated all the Java components that appeared to be out of date.  The only
"obvious" thing I haven't tried yet is rebooting.  The problem still
persists.

The issue was not resolved by installing the latest version of
libgtk2.0-0 from 'unstable' (2.12.0-3).

I started it from the command line, which resolves to
/usr/bin/eclipse.  I've attached the 'strace' output.  The relevant line
would appear to be #353:

execve("/usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse", ["/usr/lib/eclipse/eclipse", "-vm",

Bug#431935: aptitude: Fix Coming for #431935?

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.6.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #431935

Has the fix for this bug been pushed out to 'unstable' yet?  The
conversation so far suggests it was fixed in late July, but I still get
bitten by it every so often, and I have to pay close attention to the
status list to avoid accidentally removing packages I want to keep.

Thanks,
Schwab

Both eclipse-rcp and eclipse-platform are uptodate at version
3.2.2-4.  All other 'depends' packages are installed, and appear to be
uptodate.

I can drop the output of 'apt-rdepends eclipse' on you, if you think
that will help.

Bug#446328: eclipse: Welcome Screen Fails to Start, Displays Error

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: eclipse
Version: 3.2.2-4
Severity: important

Attempts to open the Welcome screen result in a pane with an
error describing an inability to load a class.  The topmost error is:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.Plugin

This can most easily be reproduced by starting eclipse 'clean',
that is, without any pre-existing 'workspace' or '.eclipse' directories.
Eclipse will attempt to display the Welcome screen, but fail.  Other
panes *seem* to work correctly, but I'm not very experienced with
eclipse so I can't speak to that (I'm trying to learn the darned thing,
but I keep finding bugs.)

I have the Sun JVM installed, but eclipse seems to be defaulting
to gcj.  Perhaps my Debian 'alternatives' are messed up?  They're set up
as:

walkies:/etc# update-alternatives --display java_vm
java_vm - status is auto.
 link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java_vm
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java_vm - priority 63
Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java_vm.

Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java.

I've attached the text of the error, and the output of 'eclipse
-debug'.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Bug#433502: eclipse: Missing Overview Docs

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: eclipse
Version: 3.2.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #433502


I'm experiencing a similar problem.  After installing eclipse
for the first time, I opened a new workspace, clicked on "Overview," and
then clicked on "Workbench Basics."  The help browser opened and
displayed the following text:

"The topic that you have requested is not available.  The link
may be wrong, or you may not have the corresponding product
feature installed. This online help only includes documentation
for features that are installed."

Clicking on the links named, "Java Development," "Team
Support," and "Eclipse Plug-In Development," also yield the same
message.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Version: 0.4.4-4+b1
Followup-For: Bug #431123

The latest aptitude off of unstable now takes approximately 90
seconds to initialize.  The message, "Initializing Package States"
appears at the bottom of the terminal, a slowly increasing percentage
appears in the lower right corner, and one of the CPU cores is pegged at
100% usage.  This slow process occurs every time aptitude is launched,
and every time the package list is re-built (such as immediately after
installing/upgrading packages).

Once this process is complete, aptitude functions as before.

I have not yet tried any of the 0.4.5 releases.

Bug#403000: rdesktop: Strange/Corrupted Timestamps on Shared Files

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: rdesktop
Version: 1.5.0-1
Severity: important


I've noted some peculiar behavior involving timestamps on shared
files.  Files created on the Linux side show up with invalid timestamps
on the Windows side.  Further, interrogating these files from the
Windows side will corrupt the timestamp on the Linux side.

I've invoked 'rdesktop' with the -rdisk option, which allows
files on the local Linux system to appear on the remote Windows system
under a share volume (\\tsclient\).

To reproduce:
- From Linux, create a file visible on the share.
$ touch FOO
- Note the timestamp FOO is given:
-rw-r--r-- 1 ewhac ewhac 0 2006-12-13 17:43 FOO
- From Windows (via 'rdesktop'), use the file explorer to
  navigate to the share directory containing the Linux file.
- Right-click on the file; select Properties.  The file will be
  shown with a nonsense timestamp.  In my case:
Wednesday, 23 October, 1940, 18:26:18
- Move back to the Linux side, and check the timestamp of the
  file again:
-rw-r--r-- 1 ewhac ewhac 0 1940-10-23 18:26 FOO

If you then touch(1) the file, the Linux timestamp will be
refreshed, but Windows will promptly corrupt it again when you use the
Properties window.

But wait, it gets better.  Follow the above procedure for
creating a Linux file ("FOO").  Then, instead of right-clicking for
properties, click on the View menu and select details (which reveals
timestamps).  The file will be displayed with the correct timestamp.  If
you then follow this with a right-click for Properties, Windows will
trash the timestamp again.  (The file then displays with *no datestamp
at all* in the Windows view.)

Note that, if you perform the reverse process (create a file on
the share via Windows and then check it in Linux), everything works
correctly:
- From Windows (via 'rdesktop'), navigate to the share volume.
- Right-click on a blank area in the directory window; select
  New->Text Document.  A new, empty file will be created on the
  share.
- Right-click on the newly created file; select Properties.  The
  file will be shown having the correct timestamp.
- Move back to the Linux side and touch(1) the file.  Note the
  updated timestamp.
- Move back to Windows, right-click the file, and select
  Properties.  The updated timestamp will be displayed.

Please investigate.

Bug#392919: drip: Can't find libdvdcss even though installed.

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: drip
Version: 0.9.0-3
Severity: important

When launched, 'drip's dialog window contains the following
report:


Sat Oct 14 00:55:23 2006 | libdvdcss is not installed, most DVD disks wont be 
readable!
Sat Oct 14 00:55:23 2006 | To get this working install libdvdcss, recompile 
libdvdread
Sat Oct 14 00:55:23 2006 | and recompile Drip. After that all DVD's should read 
just fine.


This is not so; libdvdcss v1.2.9 is in fact installed on this
system.  It was installed using the precompiled .deb available here:

http://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.9/deb/

'vlc', which also uses libdvdcss, plays back DVDs correctly.
'dpkg -s' reports the following:

Bug#390596: debsecan: Recommend upgrading 'python-apt' from Suggests to Depends

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: debsecan
Version: 0.4.2
Severity: important

For the last couple of days, I've noticed the 'debsecan' cron
job bombing out, with the following message mailed to me:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 753, in ?
rate_system(target, options, fetch_data(options), history)
  File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 698, in rate_system
pkg_version = Version(contents)
  File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 92, in __init__
self.__parsed = self.__parse(version)
  File "/usr/bin/debsecan", line 111, in __parse
raise ValueError, "invalid Debian version string"
ValueError: invalid Debian version string


This started happening shortly after I upgraded the system from
Python 2.3 to 2.4.  After running 'debsecan' by hand, I noticed a tiny
diagnostic (not included in the emailed output) suggesting that
installing 'python-apt' would be helpful.  I did, and the problem
immediately went away.

Checking with 'aptitude', I see that 'debsecan' merely Suggests
'python-apt', and does not Depend on it, thus resulting in the unhelpful
output.  Barring other considerations, I would recommend upgrading
'python-apt' to a Dependency and not simply a Suggestion.  Either that,
or fixing 'debsecan' such that it doesn't bomb out completely if
'python-apt' isn't present.

I'm using the X.org 'radeon' driver, which I'm 95% certain supports
some GL acceleration.  I have yet to try the ATI proprietary drivers since,
until earlier this month, they didn't support suspend/resume.

Can you think of any further diagnostic output I could provide?

Bug#344381: xscreensaver-gl: 'timetunnel' Aborts with Texture Error

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: xscreensaver-gl
Version: 4.23-3
Severity: normal


The screen saver 'timetunnel' refuses to run on my system,
aborting with an error:

$ /usr/lib/xscreensaver/timetunnel 
timetunnel: texture error: invalid value

The same error occurs even when prepending
'XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1' to the command line.

The system in question is running xorg 6.8.2.dfsg.1-10, and has
an ATI Radeon Mobility 9200, which supports GL acceleration.  A
different machine with the same version of xorg and xscreensaver-gl
installed runs 'timetunnel' fine (albeit slowly); that machine has Intel
integrated graphics.

Bug#337650: x11-common: run_parts utility misused in /etc/X11/Xsession?

[Leo L. Schwab]

Package: x11-common
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4
Followup-For: Bug #337650

I too have encountered the same problem.  I was trying to get
'xscreensaver' to launch on session start, but it was never invoked no
matter where I put the command (.xsession, .Xsession, .gnomerc).  After
poring over the startup scripts, I found the same culprit as Mr.
Farrauto, but for a different reason.

'run_parts' is intended to actually execute the scripts in a
given directory.  However, /etc/X11/Xsession (and /etc/gdm/Xsession as
well, BTW) want the scripts *enumerated*, not run.  This is because
Xsession sources the scripts so that they can pass information between
each other via shell/environment variables.  Thus, it would appear that
run_parts should be passed the '--list' argument to get the desired
behavior.

Thus, in the files /etc/X11/Xsession and /etc/gdm/Xsession, the
line:

SESSIONFILES=$(run_parts $SYSSESSIONDIR)

should probably be changed to:

SESSIONFILES=$(run_parts --list $SYSSESSIONDIR)

'cu' forces hardware flow control when invoked against a
tty/serial device directly:

cu -l /dev/usb/ttyUSB0

The tty is unconditionally set to hardware flow control, even
when previously disabled by 'stty' (stty -F /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 -crtscts).
This is due to the following line in cu.c (at or near line #602):

  sport.uuconf_u.uuconf_sdirect.uuconf_fhardflow = TRUE;

A patch to add new command line flags to manipulate this setting
was posted to the NetBSD lists some time ago.  Perhaps it could be
incorporated:
