Title:
  receive authentication canceled in terminal when changing options in
  "Other Software"

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've tried to disable some PPAs in the "Other Software" tab of
  software-properties and whenever I check a box for the first time I
  get a message in the terminal about "ERROR:root:Authentication
  canceled, changes have not been saved" (although an authentication
  dialog has not appeared) and the dialog box greys out. However,
  frequently upon clicking the box for a second time (when it is greyed
  out) I am then presented with an authentication dialog. This seems
  quite odd.

  I've tested this the following versions of software-properties-gtk.

  0.96.24.32.5 from bionic
  0.26.27 from cosmic

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1787729] Re: [FAILED] Failed to start Process error reports when automatic reporting is enabled.

2018-12-06 Thread Chris Rainey
I just figured-out how to get "apport-autoreport.service",
"whoopsie.service" & "systemd-networkd-wait-online.service" starting
correctly on a networkd(netplan)-only(NetworkManager.service _disabled_
system) desktop which uses WiFi and a static-ip on Ubuntu 18.10 Desktop.

I'm commenting here in case it provides insight or another angle to
approach the resolution of this bug.

BTW:  the test system _was_ experiencing this bug on a clean-install of
18.10 Desktop ISO.

TL;DR

Adding a new variable(optional: yes) in the netplan yaml config for a
static IP addy allows the "systemd-networkd-wait-online.service" to
_ignore_ interfaces that may be blocking or inhibiting the proper
startup of the apport-auto/whoopsie units.


Steps to reproduce:

1. Disable all NetworkManager related services:

$ systemctl list-unit-files | grep Net
NetworkManager-dispatcher.service  disabled   
NetworkManager-wait-online.service disabled   
NetworkManager.service disabled 


2. Create new yaml config for static IP's on all IF's(notice the 'optional: 
yes' directives!):

$ cat /etc/netplan/01-static-ip.yaml 
network:
  version: 2
  renderer: networkd
  ethernets:
enp2s0:
  optional: yes
  dhcp4: no
  dhcp6: no
  addresses: [192.168.1.201/24]
  gateway4: 192.168.1.254
  nameservers:
addresses: [8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4]
  wifis:
wlp3s0:
  optional: yes
  dhcp4: no
  dhcp6: no
  addresses: [192.168.1.202/24]
  gateway4: 192.168.1.254
  nameservers:
addresses: [8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4]
  access-points:
"Chez Merkle-Mac-Rainey 5 GHz":
  password: "BIG SECRET"


3. Reboot and confirm proper startup of all service units:

$ systemctl --failed 
0 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.


$ systemctl status 
● CKR-1
State: running
 Jobs: 0 queued
   Failed: 0 units

2018-12-19 Thread Chris Rainey
@Daniel:  sorry . . . forgot to mention that ubuntu-restricted-extras(which
depends on *-addons) _is_ installed. I also ensured that all other
dependencies are installed according to:
https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/video-dvd-restricted.html.en

This definitely feels like a regression..

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1002978] Re: [meta-bug] Inverted Internal microphone (phase inversion)

  [meta-bug] Inverted Internal microphone (phase inversion)

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is a metabug for all machines that are having phase inverted
  internal microphones.

  If your internal mic is either completely silent (no signal), or you
  can possibly pick a very small sound, with much background noise, even
  though you have set gain to maximum, there is something you could try.

  Install the pavucontrol application, start it and go to the "Input Devices" 
tab. Unlock the channels (there is a keylock icon), then mute the right channel 
while keeping the left channel at the volume you want.
  If the internal mic is now working correctly, you have an inverted internal 
mic, so that your right channel cancels out the left one.

  (If you're not running PulseAudio, you can try doing the same through
  AlsaMixer instead (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Alsamixer ), try
  changing "Capture" level or "Internal Mic" or "Internal Mic Boost"
  using the Q,E,Z,C keys.)

  If so, please file a separate bug against the alsa-driver for your
  issue, make sure hardware info gets attached to it (either alsa-info
  as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo or the standard ones
  that follows when you do "ubuntu-bug alsa-driver" ), then write a
  comment in this bug, with your machine name and a pointer to the other
  bug.

  As time permits, I'll try to work on fixing them for the next Ubuntu release. 
Thanks!

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1686081] Re: If -synaptics is installed, GNOME Mouse & Touchpad Settings doesn't work

2018-01-29 Thread Chris Rainey
@k-one, do the following:

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get --auto-remove purge xserver-xorg-
input-synaptics && sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-libinput

$ reboot

Fixed?

  3. Can the desktops be ported and how bad is it if they are not ported
  and -synaptics is no longer available?

  4. If -synaptics can't be removed completely from 18.04 LTS, does it

Hr ... curious.

You can revert my code by reversing the action and reinstalling the
-synaptics driver.

Might be time for a clean-install?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1714518] Re: GTK+3 doesn't show FUSE/GVFS, smb (SMB/CIFS), sftp (SFTP/SSH) network shares in file chooser

2018-02-05 Thread Chris Rainey
OK  so I'm _really_ glad to see the work on this bug progressing
and, as such, I've been attempting to "add myself" to this bug's
"affected user" list. However, I have _not_ been able to do so for the
past 2-weeks with the error message:  "timeout, please try again later".
Does anybody know how to create a bug-report for Launchpad, itself?

Screenshot of bug, attached.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install any Gtk3 application such as Firefox or Chromium which use modern 
file-chooser dialog. 
  2. Mount network location through fstab or file-manager ("smb://" = SMB/CIFS, 
"sftp://"; = SFTP/SSH and so on)
  3. Try to save/open file to/from the remote location from Gtk3 application.

  Expected results:
  * user is able to find network folder and save/open file to/from it with 
GtkFileChooser dialog

  Actual results:
  * user is unable to find network folder and save/open file to/from it with 
GtkFileChooser dialog and many user applications are affected

  -
  Original bug description is below:

  GTK+3 doesn't show FUSE network shares in file chooser - it used to do
  so in GTK+2, and the GTK+3 documentation still mentions it should do
  it.

  In the mean time, every user of every application switching to GTK+3
  -- including Chromium, at some point between 58 and 60 -- (a change
  which happened in 16.04 LTS!!), loses the functionality to open or
  save directly to a network share.

  I had chosen 16.04 LTS for deploying our workstations at work, and my 50 
users have been suddenly unable to do a simple operation they have to do dozens 
of times a day.
  They now have to "buffer" these files to their local filesystem when saving 
them and before uploading them, and then copy them to the company's network 
shares.
  They were already a little bit grumpy when it stopped working with Firefox, 
and are now really side-eyeing me when they apply updates and find Chromium 
broken.

  I have reported the bug upstream and provided a patch to fix this. I
  hope you'll be able and willing to include it to Ubuntu's GTK+3
  package.

  Thanks in advance.

shares.
  They were already a little bit grumpy when it stopped working with Firefox, 
and are now really side-eyeing me when they apply updates and find Chromium 
broken.

  I have reported the bug upstream and provided a patch to fix this. I
  hope you'll be able and willing to include it to Ubuntu's GTK+3
  package.

  Thanks in advance.

Works as expected in Xubuntu 18.10. Must be something in the ubuntu-

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1783328] Re: The option to select LTS notifications should be masked in non-LTS versions

2018-07-26 Thread Chris Rainey
Thanks, Brian. That sounds reasonable and would---in fact, accomplish what
I _thought_ it was supposed to do when I was setting it on end-user
installs so that I could expose features and functionality of a non-LTS
version while assuming it would pause at the next LTS.

I appreciate you feedback. Any ideas when this might be implemented? Is
there a bug I can track to be notified of the functionality changes?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1714518] Re: GTK+3 doesn't show FUSE/GVFS, smb (SMB/CIFS), sftp (SFTP/SSH) network shares in file chooser

2018-01-26 Thread Chris Rainey
In case any Ubuntu/GNOME Dev's are confused about the urgency of this
and they don't work in a LAN/WAN-based environment:

1. Switching business users from MS Windows to Ubuntu Linux carries an
expectation that they can still access LAN/WAN resources from the 'file
chooser' dialogs(i.e. Chrome browser --> Gmail --> upload attachment
from an SMB/CIFS location, etc.)

2. Having consistent GUI interfaces imparts a sense of confidence to
Admins(like me) that they won't be burned-at-the-stake on a huge bonfire
by those same users _and_ management for trying to move the company onto
GNU/Linux systems !!

  GTK+3 doesn't show FUSE network shares in file chooser - it used to do

  -- including Chromium, at some point between 58 and 60 -- (a change
  which happened in 16.04 LTS!!), loses the functionality to open or
  save directly to a network share.

  I had chosen 16.04 LTS for deploying our workstations at work, and my 50 
users have been suddenly unable to do a simple operation they have to do dozens 
of times a day.
  They now have to "buffer" these files to their local filesystem when saving 
them and before uploading them, and then copy them to the company's network

  They were already a little bit grumpy when it stopped working with Firefox,

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1690143] [NEW] More end-user friendly dialogs on crash notifications

2017-05-11 Thread Chris Rainey
Public bug reported:

Please consider a less dramatic end-user notification for "problem"
notifications.

I'm transitioning long-time Microsoft Windows and some Apple Mac users
to Ubuntu. Often, they are "change resistant" -- looking for any reason
to claim that Ubuntu(Linux) is not "as good", etc..

Please consider changing the user-facing crash dialogs with wording such
as:

Correcting for system anomaly

Submitting report to authors.

  [  Continue  ]

Then, silently gather report data and submit to maintainers/developers.

More often then not, in my experience, these crashes are recoverable and
deal with things like:  cups-browsed, hpps, Xorg, etc. which are foreign
concepts to end-users anyway.

Make the current developer/technician friendly notifications an opt-in
config from an 'update-alternatives' or similar post-install process.

Thank you for your consideration in making Ubuntu an easier transition
for non-technical end-users and their sysadmins.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 48734] Re: Home permissions too open

2019-05-20 Thread Chris Rainey
Wow! Approaching 13-years and counting on this bug. Neat.

Desktop Linux: The principle of least astonishment (POLA) should
_always_ be priority-one with Security. Open $HOME's are a surprise to
me and everyone I know.

Now that cloud storage has taken the desktop users of the world by
storm, is the need to have open(r-x) $HOME dirs still needed?

We've lost the 'Guest" user login since 18.04 and we've lost ecryptfs as
an option in the installer. Why not just throw a simple toggle into the
installer, to surface this issue, offering admins the option?

  Surely this is a bad idea? If your set on the idea can we atleast have

  Also new files that are created via the console ('touch' etc.) are

Title:
  Default permissions(0755 / umask=0022) allow other users to access
  files behind a password protected user account after login

Status in adduser package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  By default, Ubuntu Desktop installs new user accounts(adduser or GUI)
  with "other=r-x" or "0755" permissions.

  This defeats the, at least casual, protections afforded by having
  separate and password protected login accounts from other users on the
  local system. Users migrating from other platforms(Windows or macOS)
  have an expectation of privacy in their accounts due to Windows and
  macOS, for example, having protections on their $HOME dirs to prevent
  the casual snooping or otherwise more mischievous actions of other
  $USER's on the local system.

  With the largest potential pool of migrations being from one of the
  above alternative operating systems, the Ubuntu(Linux for Humans)
  desktop installer and adduser.conf file should honor that expectation
  or at least make it an "Opt-Out" instead of an "Opt-In" requirement.

  What is the point, other than the FSF Hierarchy, for having a
  "Public"(0755) folder in each $USER $HOME, if any other user can
  (r)ead or (x)traverse the entire $HOME by default?

  If any of my customers discover this on older systems that I have
  installed or if I forget to set the $HOME DIR_MODE=0750 as a custom
  edit in the /etc/adduser.conf file on all new installs--it could
  greatly jeopardize my security reputation and that of Ubuntu's!

  Use cases for 0755 on Ubuntu Server are not my concern, just Desktop.

  Additionally, I routinely disable the "boot to USB" or other devices
  in the BIOS and passwd protect those settings from tampering with an
  Admin passwd in said BIOS. Very few PC's in the last decade lack this
  level of BIOS configurability.

  I also install all new Ubuntu Desktop's using LUKS+LVM for the entire
  local disk(s) system.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 48734] Re: Home permissions too open

2019-05-20 Thread Chris Rainey
Whoa...Robbie, I'm just looking out for all the new user's and admin's
that are coming in from other platforms that could reasonably be
surprised by this and not Unix/Linux veteran's who broke their teeth
with vi on Slackware, etc..

Believe it or not, with WSL-2 and other notable advancements of Ubuntu
coming on to the radar of mainstream and mostly Microsoft-trained
admin's, we have an _opportunity_ here to create mindshare and loyalty
for migrations of huge workloads to our platform-of-choice and,
arguably, the best platform for safer and more secure computing as
opposed to having the majority of PC users in the world stay on one
company's monoculture-vision of desktop computing.

I'm attempting to spread the Gospel-of-GNU(Ubuntu) everywhere. We're on
the same team, my friend.

Obscure wiki articles and 13-year old "opinion"-marked bugs will _not_
be the first place new admins or users will find out about this issue!

Heck, I've been a Linux user since 2004("Red Hat 8"(before Fedora was
even a  thing) box-set purchased at a CompUSA store), then Slackware and
an Ubuntu convert since 2012 or so. I should know better than to leave
multi-user seats unaudited for permissions after creation(or even during
by not having edited the adduser.conf file). But even I just _assumed_
that a modern desktop would surely put security ahead of convenience! I
didn't even know that this "security" issue was a "feature" till I
started setting-up multi-user local seats and even then--I may have just
started using ecryptfs as a workaround. Now--even that option is gone
from user(admin)-facing installer widgets.

Put yourself in the shoes of a new or migrating small to medium sized
business CIO or IT-manager looking to convert from the soon-to-be out-
of-service "Windows 7" in order to keep fleets of older boxes running
for daily knowledge-worker or office-productivity users who share
desktop PC's over the course of 24/7 shifts at the office. What would
you think if every system that you had installed or understood to be the
out-of-box defaults for the past few decades was based on blocking vs
allowing? And you took the risk of allowing this "Linux-
thing"(yes...this is what I have heard it called many times) only to
discover the opposite, a permissive rule set, without any warning.

Ubuntu is growing rapidly...I want to see it succeed despite it's geeks-
only reputation. I think sensible defaults are good to always be working
on(not just "opining" about in 13-year old bugs).

2019-05-24 Thread Chris Rainey
If I invite you into my house(physical), then I don't expect you to go
through my filing cabinets or closets, when I'm not looking, without
explicitly giving you those "permissions(0755)".

"Good fences make good neighbours" and "Locks keep out only the honest"
are equally true.

Placing convenience-over-privacy, by default, in this post-GDPR /
Facebook & Twitter leaks / Equifax breach / Edward Snowden & Julian
Assange(perhaps heroes to those of us in the USA), etc. seems to be
unconscionable.

2019-05-24 Thread Chris Rainey
It has been my experience, lately, that individuals or families sharing
a computer have a single login account, i.e. "Family", etc.. This is
probably due to the perception by such simple-needs $USER's or their
family I.T. guru, that--it is the easiest way to overcome the reasonable
and appropriate account isolation techniques, by default, in Windows or
macOS. I suggest that the same could be true for Ubuntu and it would
hardly be noticed, except by experienced *nix $USERS, most of whom--
would already know how to twiddle the appropriate bits, if needed, to
open their $HOMES.

  Home permissions too open

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  On a fresh dapper install i noticed that the file permissons for the
  home directory for the user created by the installer is set to 755,
  giving read access to everyone on the system.

  Surely this is a bad idea? If your set on the idea can we atleast have
  a option during the boot proccess?

  Also new files that are created via the console ('touch' etc.) are
  done so with '644' permissons, is there anything that can be done
  here? nautlius seems to create files at '600', which is a better
  setting.

I find that primary(left-clicking) up to 15 or 20+ times _eventually_
spawns the pkexec-gui box.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1631043] [NEW] Internal microphone does not work due to phase inversion

2016-10-06 Thread Chris Rainey
Public bug reported:

PulseAudio detects internal microphone but cannot receive any sound from
it.

WORK-AROUND:

Issue command:  $ pactl set-source-volume 1 0% 100%

or

"Install the pavucontrol application, start it and go to the "Input Devices" 
tab. Unlock the channels (there is a keylock icon), then mute the right channel 
while keeping the left channel at the volume you want.
If the internal mic is now working correctly, you have an inverted internal 
mic, so that your right channel cancels out the left one."

Bug description:
  This is a metabug for all machines that are having phase inverted
  internal microphones.

  If your internal mic is either completely silent (no signal), or you
  can possibly pick a very small sound, with much background noise, even
  though you have set gain to maximum, there is something you could try.

  Install the pavucontrol application, start it and go to the "Input Devices" 
tab. Unlock the channels (there is a keylock icon), then mute the right channel 
while keeping the left channel at the volume you want.
  If the internal mic is now working correctly, you have an inverted internal 
mic, so that your right channel cancels out the left one.

  (If you're not running PulseAudio, you can try doing the same through
  AlsaMixer instead (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/Alsamixer ), try
  changing "Capture" level or "Internal Mic" or "Internal Mic Boost"
  using the Q,E,Z,C keys.)

  If so, please file a separate bug against the alsa-driver for your
  issue, make sure hardware info gets attached to it (either alsa-info
  as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo or the standard ones
  that follows when you do "ubuntu-bug alsa-driver" ), then write a
  comment in this bug, with your machine name and a pointer to the other

  As time permits, I'll try to work on fixing them for the next Ubuntu release.
