[gentoo-user] xorg + synaptics|wacom

2008-05-09 Thread Martin Gysel

Hi

Hi have a laptop with synaptics touchpad and wacom tablet. Everything 
used to work properly but recently I discovered that the synaptic 
specific functions and the tablet doesn't work any more.
I start my xserver over /etc/init.d/xdm (rc). Now I surprisingly 
detected both works if I start the server as user using startx.

Any hints how I can bring back the desired behavior?

Regards
Martin

[gentoo-user] rescrict command to certain dirs

2007-08-02 Thread Martin Gysel
Hi

I have a webserver running for multiple 'endusers'. No I want to give
some costumers access to certain files as user WEBSERVER for easy
editing configuration file owned by the webserver.

it should do something like jail the user to
/var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs/DIRtoFILES and let him perform some
commands (rm, less, nano, etc) there as user WEBSERVER.

AFAIK this isn't possible with sudo because I think it's not possible to
restrict it to certain files or dirs.

Is there an other utility which can do this? Or do I have to setup a
chroot environment?

thx
martin
