[Bug 603169] Re: gdm crashes on every second LDAP login

2011-03-22 Thread Jeff Strunk
Our new workaround has been to use SSSD instead of nscd and PADL's pam-
ldap and nss-ldap.

It is important to use a newer version that what is in the Maverick
repo. My PPA has a newer version. https://launchpad.net/~jstrunk-

We are also seeing this issue. I think our interim strategy will be to
make gvfsd-metadata not executable. Gnome seems okay without it.

This bug still exists in the maverick beta. I am working on getting
another debug stacktrace from my maverick test system.

I did not modify the gdm configuration in any way on maverick.

For anyone who needs a workaround, I discovered a legacy gdm package in
karmic that still works in lucid.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/gdm-2.20

It is unmaintained though, so this bug still needs to get fixed.

[Bug 603169] Re: gdm crashes on every second LDAP login

2010-08-18 Thread Jeff Strunk
We thought deploying with the debug symbols would be good enough.
Unfortunately, on systems where multiple people log in and out all day,
this bug eventually leads to no usable login screens.

I think the following is happening. Each time this bug occurs, a virtual
terminal is left hanging with no login prompt, and GDM starts on a new
virtual terminal. Eventually, GDM runs out of clean virtual terminals to
start on, and no one can log in with GDM. At this point, restarting GDM
does not reset these virtual terminals. service gdm stop and service
gdm restart will always report that gdm is not running. service gdm
start reports that it has started gdm. It seems like the only solution
is to reboot.

This makes this bug a higher priority for us. We can't fully deploy
lucid if people won't be able to log in.

Thank you.

It looks like this bug still has a possibility of occurring even if the
debug symbols are installed. I foolishly deleted the /var/log/gdm/* to
try to isolate the messages after this happened. Then I couldn't
reproduce it very quickly. I found the backtrace in syslog though.

[Bug 604724] [NEW] pdftops loses grid lines

2010-07-12 Thread Jeff Strunk
Public bug reported:

We discovered that cups in lucid does not correctly print certain PDFs
when printing from the command line with lpr or as a shared printer from
preview in OS X. The same file prints correctly with cups on hardy. This
issue occurs with a variety of different printers.

I tracked down the problem to /usr/bin/pdftops by running the pdf
through the filters that cups does according to the log.
/usr/bin/pdftops is called by the cpdftocps filter.

This pdftops is installed from poppler-utils:
$dpkg-query -S /usr/bin/pdftops 
poppler-utils: /usr/bin/pdftops 

After running the pdf through each step of the filter, I opened it with
evince. After running through pdftops, evince showed exactly what I see
when I print the file.

Interestingly, if I print from evince or acroread, all the lines are
printed correctly. I think they are converting the file to postscript
themselves before sending it to cups.

I will attach the file that shows this behavior.

The pdftops provided by the cups package does not exhibit this problem.
$ dpkg-query -S /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops
cups: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops

[Bug 603169] [NEW] gdm crashes on every second LDAP login

2010-07-08 Thread Jeff Strunk
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

One of our testers discovered that he has to login twice if he logs out.
This happens on all of our workstations. We've seen this with nvidia,
ati, intel, and virtualbox.

Here is what happens: 
1. boot. result: gdm loads. 
2. login. result: success. 
3. logout. result: gdm loads. 
4. login. result: gdm crashes and reloads. 
5. login. result: success. 
6. logout. result: gdm loads. 
7. login. result: gdm crashes and reloads. 
steps 2-4 repeat. 

I found an error message in /var/log/gdm/:0-slave.log.1 after the crash.
I will attach that file. The error says could not find user
However, I can repeatedly login on the cli and via ssh at any stage of
this issue. If I log in via ssh when gdm would crash, gdm still crashes
the next time I login via gdm.

This is not a duplicate of lp bug #532047. I have disabled plymouth-
splash and later purged plymouth. Neither fixed the problem.

I tested with a local user. The bug does not show up when I login and
logout repeatedly with the local user. The bug does happen if I try to
login with an LDAP user after logging out from the local user's session.

Thank you.

syslog showed the same trace as the slave log, but it did not have the
pam information. I have attached an X log file from /var/log/gdm. None
of /var/log/Xorg* had any errors.

We have changed gdm's configuration significantly. I will revert to the default 
and test again. Our primary modifications are the following:
 * disable user list
 * show our logo image
 * run bsetbg with a random image from /etc/gdm/Init/Default
 * run an account request program from /etc/gdm/Init/Default

Re: [Bug 589320] Re: gdm-safe-restart not supported

2010-06-04 Thread Jeff Strunk
We have been ignoring the fall releases for our desktop machines. It works in 
Jaunty.

I guess it is not critical, but it was a nice feature that we had gotten used 
to. I think the workaround is just to not restart gdm when the package gets 
updated or the configuration gets changed. I believe that it will bet restarted 
when someone logs in and out. 

This is really only a problem if there are security updates for gdm. We'll be 
able to deploy the new gdm, but we won't be able to restart it automatically 
because someone may be logged in.
