A vulnerability has been found in links:
Links web browser 1.00pre12 and Elinks 0.9.2 with smbclient installed
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell
metacharacters in an smb:// URI, as demonstrated by using PUT and GET
statements.
Hi, the attached patch disables smb support in links and thus fixes this
issue.
Cheers,

On Thu, Nov 30, 2006 at 23:38:55 +0100, Franco Vecchiato wrote: With apt-get there are 98 packages to install and the video card is not recognized (vesa driver doesn't work, but this is not important for me). Aptitude installs 105 packages instead, and the video card (nv driver) is correctly recognized. See commands outputs in each attachment. Is this behavior correct? IMHO apt-get should make the same work aptitude does: hardware recognition, correct driver installation, (installation of the same packets?). I think this is expected, because aptitude (by defaults) install recommended packages, while apt-get only install dependencies. xserver-xorg recommends a bunch of hardware detection tools, which it would IMHO be wrong to depend on, so the autodetection of your hardware works better if they are installed, as with aptitude.

Bug#401449: geneweb: uses debconf unconditionally in postrm purge
Package: geneweb Version: 4.10-23 Severity: important Hi Christian, currently geneweb's postrm script uses debconf if $1 = purge, but at that stage debconf might not be installed. 4.10-24 added a pre-depends, which doesn't fix the problem: pre-depends are installed before preinst, but not necessarily for postrm purge (only Essential: yes packages are guaranteed to be installed at that point). I think that you should check if debconf is installed before using it in postrm.

What I _see_ looks plausible enough: the inner border of the window is colored to match the last background used for clearing the screen. Normally the inner border isn't treated specially; I happened to notice that it (along with some other cases) wasn't being repainted on exposure events. In #223, I added a check if the inner border needs to be repainted, and that can account for the difference between the top two windows. So maybe mutt changes the background color, and then xterm uses that to repaint the inner border? I also noticed that when the inner border has been repainted when inside mutt, and I quit mutt, the border is not repainted and stays blue (for example) while the rest of the background is black (until the next exposure event) :) Cheers, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

On Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 20:14:17 +0200, Luca Capello wrote: Please keep the Debian FSO Team [1] mailing list always Cc:ed. If you do so, no need to cc: me, I read the list. I discovered these issues because of the Xglamo KDrive server [2]. The problem is described also at [3]. Basically, AFAIK xinit/startx requires both /etc/X11/X and /usr/bin/X: let's see both in details, at least as I understood the situation. Since I'm not an X11 expert, feel free to point me at documentation I need to read :-) /usr/bin/X is a setuid wrapper, which does some basic permission checks and then exec()s /etc/X11/X. So /etc/X11/X should point to the actual X server you want to use when running /usr/bin/X. startx/xinit run /usr/bin/X by default, but can just as well start any other X server (be it /usr/bin/Xephyr, /usr/bin/Xvfb or /usr/bin/Xglamo) based on /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc, $HOME/.xserverrc or command-line arguments. There used to be some logic to change the /etc/X11/X symlink via debconf until about a year ago (it used to be needed when we had hardware specific X servers, which means before XFree86 4.0 iirc), so it might be possible to reintroduce that if you feel that Xglamo need it.

I don't see how it can consider the double word instruction safe. __alignof__(XPV) is 8, so gcc is allowed to assume that any XPV is 64-bit aligned, as far as I can tell. xpv_cur's offset is 8, so it should also be 64-bit aligned.

Subject: [PATCH] agp: Fix stolen memory counting on G4X.
On the GM45, the amount of stolen memory mapped to the GTT was underestimated,
even though we had 508KB more available since the GTT doesn't take from
stolen memory. On the non-GM45 G4X, we overestimated how much stolen was
mapped to the GTT by 4KB, resulting in GPU page faults when that page was
accessed.
This update requires a corresponding update to xf86-video-intel to work
correctly.

+Subject: [PATCH] agp: Fix stolen memory counting on G4X.
+
+On the GM45, the amount of stolen memory mapped to the GTT was underestimated,
+even though we had 508KB more available since the GTT doesn't take from
+stolen memory. On the non-GM45 G4X, we overestimated how much stolen was
+mapped to the GTT by 4KB, resulting in GPU page faults when that page was
+accessed.
+
+This update requires a corresponding update to xf86-video-intel to work
+correctly.

After investigation, to have a working screen I needed a single xorg.conf option for the Monitor section, taken from etch's xorg.conf: HorizSync 60-60 However, the screen resolution is set to 1280x968, which is not wrong, but the font size is too small. I've never used this iMac with Apple software, but according to the Apple site [1] (and Wikipedia as well [2]) the correct resolution should be 1024x768, which is obtained with another single xorg.conf option in the Monitor section, again taken from etch's xorg.conf: VertRefresh 75-117 I can provide X.Org log files from etch and lenny as well as perform other tests or even installations: this is still a playing machine, thus no need to be careful with it :-) Yes please. Without the logs there's nothing we can do. I suspect DDC is just screwed up in the r128 driver, so X can't get the informations about your monitor, and uses defaults that are wrong in your case :/ Cheers, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Indeed, liguidsoap uses files under /tmp to write logs and dump audio data during the live show. We don't consider this as a bug, but as feature (tm). This is broken. Furthermore, this is known to the user, the name is predictible -- /tmp/liguidsoap.log -- and run manually by the user, with no root rights.

Fair enough. I used it for quite a while before problems developed, but I don't know what changed (it was originally infrequent and took me a while to realize it was xcompmgr). FWIW, I use xcompgr -c. While using xcompmgr (with fluxbox), it periodically (every few hours while watching video) locks up in such a way that various applications fail to make updates to the screen. Video and games freeze, terminals don't show anything typed, etc. A focus change (which changes transparency level) will sometimes make a window update once (a different video frame, text appears in a terminal all at once, etc). Restarting xcompmgr resolves this issue. (Killing it makes everything update normally, rerunning it does not break things). Would be nice if you could find out where it's stuck (use gdb from an ssh connection). This could as well be a bug in the x server. Or just from the console. I'll try to remember to do this, it's just it has to crash at a time when it's convenient for me to debug (not when I'm doing work or late at night, etc). Hi Benjamin, I seem unable to reproduce this, so I'll go ahead and downgrade the severity. It's possible this is a bug in the video driver or X server, rather than xcompmgr.

Bug#496548: xmodmap in xdm Xsetup, empty modifier map, broken Shift
Hi Peter, see the below report about issues running xmodmap on xserver startup. Do you know if this is fixed in 1.5 or master, or if the same thing still exists there? Thanks, Julien On Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 17:00:08 +0100, Ian Jackson wrote: Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:1.4.2-3 I'm suffering a problem with xmodmap. Since at least July 1997 I have swapped control and capslock on my displays, and made certain other changes to the keymap, by using xmodmap in the xdm Xsetup script. This no longer works properly. (I do it like this because this affects all X displays connected to the server, because I want more than the swapcaps option can provide, and of course because originally there was no server config file option to change keymaps at all.) The symptoms are that on the display running lenny it is not possible to log in because it is not possible to type shifted letters into the xdm greeter (eg for one's passphrase). (I'm using the xdm greeter rather than gdm etc.) I have investigated and discovered that: * When xmodmap -pm is run in Xsetup, it prints an empty modifier map. That is, there are no modifiers set. * The runes I use for xmodmap to swap control and capslock explicitly set up mappings for control and capslock, rather than transplanting them. After xmodmap runs, there are modifier settings for control and capslock but not for shift. I conjecture that xmodmap works by reading the whole modifier map and then writing a modified version. * My xmodmap invocation to change the modifier map exits with status 1 without any apparent cause and without printing an explanation. This would seem to be a bug in xmodmap. * If I comment out the xmodmap call in Xsetup, everything works fine. After logging in I see the expected modifier map. I can then do exactly the same xmodmap invocation and it works perfectly - the functionality of shift is not affected. * The effect happens nearly every time but doesn't seem to be quite 100% reproducible. I haven't had it fail to go wrong under 100% controlled conditions so I'm not sure, but I suspect a race. A complicating factor is that the xdm host is running sarge. Thus xdm and the chooser are those from sarge. xmodmap is running on the sarge host. It would be rather too disruptive to untangle this so that I could run xdm on what is current the lenny client and I don't have a spare box right now to use for a specific test. However I have verified that running lenny's xmodmap (via chroot and NFS) doesn't help: lenny's xmodmap appears to be identical in behaviour.

Bug#470901: xserver-xorg-core: Uses sync dbus calls through the libhal API
(for some reason i never saw this report..) On Fri, Mar 14, 2008 at 13:01:42 +0100, Sjoerd Simons wrote: I just had a quite nasty experience. When running hal in verbose mode in a x terminal it locks up my X, untill i kill hald from another machine.. Stracing of X shows that it was blocking on dbus calls. What seems to happen is that hal's stdout/stderr buffers are filled up because X is busy with other stuff, causing hal to block, which in turn causes X to block when it calls out to hal the next time :( A quick look in the xorg-server code shows it's using libhal_* functions. Almost all of these result in synchronous dbus calls (thus they block untill a reply is received). Which make them unsuitable for something as critical as the X server. From my point of view it might be best to turn the input hotplugging code in unstable for now as it's not actually used at this point anyway... From my point of view it wouldn't be a good solution :) (we use the input hotplugging code to load the synaptics driver on laptops with touchpads, if nothing else, and will use it for most everything post-lenny) Is there any better way to fix this, or should we just consider it a wontfix thing?

On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 16:30:38 +0200, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, after an update from etch to lenny, i had a black screen (no signal) when I started a x-session. At that time I used the i810 driver on my Transtec Senyo 600 mini-pc. I read i810 is deprecated and replaced by xserver-xorg-video-intel, which I installed together with the new, simplified xorg.conf. The problem persisted. I tried to track it down and found, that autodetection choosed the wrong video-output and that I miss a matching modeline for my monitor (BenQ FP93GX 1280x1024). The mini-pc has four (!) outputs, TV, LVDS (though no LCD-Display), TMDS-1 (the DVI-Out) and VGA (when I plug my DVI-VGA-Adapter into TMDS-1). I think the hassle is, that LVDS is chosen - and not VGA, where my monitor is: It seems the driver enabled the nonexistent LVDS panel, and TMDS-1. Can you send a log without your workarounds in xorg.conf, and with the ModeDebug option enabled? It sounds like we should quirk out the LVDS, but I wonder why both VGA and TMDS-1 are detected as connected if you only have one monitor.

I even looked a bit at xf86Config.c to see how easy that might be to fix. Yeah, I looked too, and will try to fix that upstream, time permitting. But regardless, that's not fixed now, and the configuration file that dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg generates results in a non-functional setup with xserver = 1.5. So that's something that should be fixed still. There are no downsides to actually generating the ServerLayout section that the server wants, right?

I think the first four points should still be tried when no ServerLayout

(and the xorg.conf manpage says AllowEmptyInput takes effect if there
are no input devices in the config file)
The attached patch should fix this. Daniel, can you take a look? I'm
not sure why we have both checkInput() and checkCoreInputDevices(), by
the way.

Can you ping? ssh? catch the log? Yes, it is completely dead, open ssh connections trying to gather last bits from tail -f /var/log/messages stall immediately (unfortunately the notebook has no serial connectors for a serial console), pings get no answer - a hard poweroff is the only recovery. Hi, could you try to find out where the hang occurs? You can put some calls to ErrorF() at various points in the driver, and add Option Log sync in the ServerFlags section of xorg.conf. If we don't manage to track this down soon, I'd be tempted to revert to an earlier version of the savage driver for lenny.

There's nothing proper about using dpatch. If you introduce changes in an NMU, and there isn't already a patch system, then you shouldn't add one.
