Re: boot messages

OK - more info. I´ve come to the conclusion that something is
seriously fucked-up with permissions, but I have no idea how to fix
it.

As I wrote earlier, I´m now using a rescue partition on the same box.
So, in effect, I can mount any partitions I want to. I mounted /usr as
/-usr and tried running random programs from that partition.
Nothing runs, even thoug the permissions SEEM to be OK. Hereś a random
example of runnng rpmquery. I hope it´s clear what I´ve done here, but
to be sure, I´ĺl add some comments.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpmquery  xterm
xterm-215-4mdv2007.0
# rpmquery runs normally on my rescue system
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /usr/bin/rpmquery  xterm
xterm-215-4mdv2007.0
# same result if I specify the path
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /-usr/bin/rpmquery  xterm
bash: /-usr/bin/rpmquery: Permission denied
# if I use a path that runs the same program, but from my real
system´s /usr partition, I have no permission
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -la /-usr/bin/rpmquery
ls: /-usr/bin/rpmquery: Permission denied
# I can´t even see the file
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ su
Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] solomon]# /-usr/bin/rpmquery  xterm
xterm-215-4mdv2007.0
# but root CAN run the program
[EMAIL PROTECTED] solomon]#  ls -la /-usr/bin/rpmquery
lrwxrwxrwx 1 rpm rpm 15 Nov 30  2006 /-usr/bin/rpmquery -> ../lib/rpm/rpmq*
# and root can see what seems to be normal permissions - note that
it´s a link
[EMAIL PROTECTED] solomon]#  ls -la /-usr/lib/rpm/rpmq
-rwxr-xr-x 1 rpm rpm 11296 Nov  6  2006 /-usr/lib/rpm/rpmq*
# and just to be sure, here root is seeing the permissions of the
actual file - still OK for read and exec
[EMAIL PROTECTED] solomon]#


So why can´t solomon see or run programs in /-usr? This must be
connected to my login problem. There are obviously actions that need
to be done to complete the login and permissions prevent them from
being done.

Can you ls on dirs above this file from your user, and see their permission? 
Remember that you need to have +x for your user on all the directories above 
the file/dir you're trying to access...

Perhaps you have something it your (solomon user) login script (.profile, *rc 
files, etc) that makes this happen. I once saw a developer playing with 
things like the env variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH in his login script, and as a 
result, the dynamic loader went crazy and caused similar effects.

And of course - strace -f is your friend if nothing else works :-)

I didn´t (knowingly) make any changes and untill yesterday, the system
has worked for years. In any case, the problem is with ALL users -
including a new user I just created after the problem started.

Check "group" and "other" permissions on all directories recursively to see
which folder blocks your normal user from accessing the file.

-rwxr-xr-x 1 rpm rpm 11296 Nov  6  2006 /-usr/lib/rpm/rpmq*

from the looks of it, either lib/ or rpm/ have invalid permissions.

I compared your strace with strace in my system when running ls -la .

Since my system is Debian Etch, may I suggest that you request someone,
who is running Mandriva like you, to run strace and E-mail you his
strace output for comparison with yours?

The above is an I/O error which I do not see in my system's strace.
Google has a lot of stuff about umoven I/O error, but included no
explanations or solutions.  Some people said that those errors are
normal in straces.

You may be having a problem with /usr/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo

I tried comparing to my ls -la results, but after only 2 or 3 lines,
there is almost no similarity. I don´t know what to look for. I see
(in your strace) alot of referals to specific files that are  not
relevant to my system. So I don´t know what a ¨normal" strace output
should be.

Help in Reproducing an X.Org XServer Bug

2007-12-21 Thread Shlomi Fish
Hi all!

I could use your help in trying to reproduce this X.Org XServer bug:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13750

A word of warning is that it may hang your xserver, so don't run it on a 
machine with unsaved changes, or any other computer that you'd rather not 
have to reboot.

Thanks in advance,

Shlomi Fish

Right. I already did, but I encourage anyone to do so as well. In fact, I'll 
include this advice in the home page and instructions of the program. Thanks!

Since these are different domains, it may be a fake site. You better
not click these links to avoid transfering of information from your
computer to the fake one.
