Quite a while ago rsh has been put in the pillory for not encrypting the
connection. The town crier urged everybody to use ssh instead.
Found in the web:
https://fossies.org/linux/alpine/imap/docs/FAQ.txt
_4.3 How does the c-client library choose which of its several
mechanisms to use to establish an IMAP connection to the server? I
noticed that it can connect on port 143, port 993, via rsh, and via
ssh._
c-client chooses how to establish an IMAP connection via the
following rules:
+ If /ssl is specified, use an SSL connection. Fail otherwise.
+ Else if client is a UNIX system and "ssh server exec
/etc/rimapd" works, use that
+ Else if /tryssl is specified and an SSL connection works, use
that.
+ Else if client is a UNIX system and "rsh server exec
/etc/rimapd" works, use that.
+ Else use a non-SSL connection.
_7.25 Why is there a long delay in Alpine or any other c-client based
application call before I get connected to the IMAP server?
[...]
It must be emphasized that this is a bug in rsh. It is _not_ a
bug in the IMAP toolkit.
The use of rsh can be disabled in any the following ways:
+ You can disable it for this particular session by either:
o setting an explicit port number in the mailbox name, e.g.
{imapserver.foo.com:143}INBOX
o using SSL (the /ssl switch)
+ You can disable rsh globally by setting the rsh timeout value
to 0 with the call:
mail_parameters (NIL,SET_RSHTIMEOUT,0);
The instructions "/ssl switch" and
"mail_parameters (NIL,SET_RSHTIMEOUT,0);" riddle me.
There is
https://ratfactor.com/slackware/alpine-config.html
with lots of explanations. Maybe the desired answers are in there.
I get my mail by POP and send by SMTP. Both via stunnel(8) because GMX
insists in encryption. (Possibly one can meanwhile configure alpine to do
the SSL encryption of SMTP on its own. My POP client runs externally.)
In my ~/.pinrc i see:
# Sets the format of the command used to open a UNIX remote
# shell connection. The default is "%s %s -l %s exec /etc/r%sd"
# NOTE: the 4 (four) "%s" entries MUST exist in the provided command
# where the first is for the command's path, the second is for the
# host to connect to, the third is for the user to connect as, and the
# fourth is for the connection method (typically "imap")
rsh-command=
If i'd find a non-empty content there, i'd try whether making it empty
and setting something senseful to ssh-command= and ssh-path= will
avoid the rsh problems.
(The proposed content of that value looks like a sprintf(3) format
string. Let's hope that alpine applies some checks before using it.)
Have a nice day :)

Re: mpv "some-gif-file.gif" fullscreen and quit, auto exits/kills wayland/ "logs out"
Ok, I did some more testing on this one:
Does not matter if it's a gif or a video.
What __does__ matter is if the gif or video is zoomed, AND make
fullscreen, e.g using
Alt +
and Alt -
and "f" for fullscreen, and of course "L" for loop infinitely so the
video or gif keeps playing and doesn't immediately exit.
When the video or gif is zoomed, then when mpv exits, e.g using "q",
then either Wayland crashes or the desktop session auto logs out.
Needless to say, this is annoying.
Found this:
[vo=gpu-next] Video hangs after seek then mpv crashes after CTRL-C
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/9526
and so:
$ mpv --vo=help
--->> 20231122@11:16:23 <<---
Available video outputs:
libmpv render API for libmpv
gpu Shader-based GPU Renderer
gpu-next Video output based on libplacebo
vdpauVDPAU with X11
wlshmWayland SHM video output (software scaling)
xv X11/Xv
sdl SDL 2.0 Renderer
dmabuf-wayland Wayland dmabuf video output
vaapiVA API with X11
x11 X11 (software scaling)
null Null video output
imageWrite video frames to image files
tct true-color terminals
caca libcaca
drm Direct Rendering Manager (software scaling)
sixelterminal graphics using sixels
and testing this (one line):
$ mpv --vo=null --gpu-debug=yes
/usr/share/cups/doc-root/images/wait.gif > mpv-out.log 2>&1
is fine, but no interaction of course, so testing the "gpu-next"
("Video output based on libplacebo" seemingly software rendering)
seemed like a good place to start (again, single line):
$ mpv --vo=gpu-next --gpu-debug=yes
/usr/share/cups/doc-root/images/wait.gif > mpv-out.log 2>&1
and surprisingly, after L(oop), f(ullscreen), zoom (with Alt +), then
q(uit), Wayland hung.
Finally! we have some data. See attached.
I note the first log output line as follows:
[vo/gpu-next/wayland] GNOME's wayland compositor lacks support for the
idle inhibit protocol. This means the screen can blank during
playback.
and I have experienced on occasion, the screen blanking as stated in
that log line above. Also experienced that under Ubunutu.
But, the last line of log/debug within that log output file, is
possibly the hopeful bit:
[vo/gpu-next/libplacebo] gl_fb_query: OpenGL error: GL_INVALID_OPERATION
I only find this when searching:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/10324
which says "Ah yeah, that message is from libplacebo. It's harmless
but perhaps scary looking."
but in my case, the "scary" (Wayland or desktop crash/ auto logout/
whatever it is that logs me out of my desktop) is in fact happening.
I also note this:
mpv crash in Ubuntu 22.10
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1447790/mpv-crash-in-ubuntu-22-10
which suggests:
"This fixed it.
$ sudo apt install intel-media-va-driver-non-free
The above will REMOVE intel-media-va-driver
"
and I note that I have the non-free driver installed, not the
intel-media-va-driver (free) driver. Should I perhaps remove the
non-free driver (with all its hardware codec support) and try the
'free' driver?
In any case, if it's the driver, I would like to locate/identify the
bug and file a bug report, so that the non-free driver developers can
look at it, or otherwise file a bug report against the appropriate
(Wayland?) component so that can get fixed. Perhaps I should re-open
the bug above about that GL_INVALID_OPERATION error?
At this point, I'm not sure what's the best thing to do, or how to
solve this problem - I am at my limit of debugging this. If anyone can
suggest a next step I would appreciate that.
Best regards,
Zenaan

Re: rhs time out error?
Thomas Schmitt (12023-11-21): > Can it be that "rhs" is a typo and should rather be "rsh" ? IMAP is the only protocol I know that officially has a “preauthenticated” mode, where a user can run the server under their own UID and interact with it through its standard input and output, going directly into operation mode skipping the authentication phase. That way, if a client supports it, you can connect to a IMAP server through SSH and a key, for example. It is a tragedy that not more authenticated protocols do not support the same thing.

This doesn't sound right. Can you run hdparm -C on the affected devices at the time? What is the result of that? Do the drives spin back up if you use hdparm -z? What is the exact kernel version you are running? Please provide both the package name and exact package version, and the full output from uname -a. Assuming that those drives are connected over USB, do they show up in lsusb output while inaccessible? Is there anything relevant in dmesg output? Are you booting the kernel with any command-line parameters? Please provide the exact contents of /proc/cmdline. A spun-down drive can take a brief time to spin back up (typically on the order of a few seconds), but that SHOULD be handled automatically; clearly something odd is going on in your case if it doesn't. -- Michael Kjörling https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
