[Touch-packages] [Bug 988072] Re: Can't remove user if they're not in /etc/passwd

2015-01-25 Thread R. Becke
Sorry but my workaround was incomplete - i.e. to clean up the login screen (and 
clean up the cached passwords) I use the following commands:
sudo rm /var/lib/sss/db/*
sudo rm /var/lib/sss/mc/*
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/lightdm/.cache
sudo rm -rf /var/cache/lightdm
sudo rm -rf /var/log/wtmp
And reboot the machine

  Can't remove user if they're not in /etc/passwd

Status in accountsservice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Thanks to nss, there are many ways for a user account to exist.

  If you have user accounts authenticated with LDAP (say), and use nss
  tables other than passwd to store user information, then you find that
  the system automatically creates an entry in the user account database
  on login. This is handy: it means the user gets listed by lightdm in
  the greeter, for example, and things like background and keyboard
  prefs can be known to the greeter. It's all good.

  However, these users cannot be deleted. If you use the accounts-daemon
  from the control center to remove them, you get this error:

  Failed to delete user
  GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.Accounts.Error.Failed: running 
'/usr/sbin/userdel' failed: /usr/sbin/userdel returned an error (1): userdel: 
cannot remove entry 'tbushnell' from /etc/passwd

  And alas, the user then stays in the system database.

  Please make it possible to remove users from the system database even
  if deluser and userdel don't work on them.

2014-12-16 Thread R. Becke
I have found a workaround - by deleting the sss cache files the remote user 
profiles disappear from the lightdm login screen:
log-in as LOCAL administrator (sudo user) (i.e. basically the account that was 
created during installation)
delete SSS cache files:
sudo rm /var/lib/sss/db/*
sudo rm /var/lib/sss/md/*
And reboot the machine.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1384394] Re: /etc/network/interfaces: "dns-nameservers" entries for bridge "br*" interfaces are ignored i.e. they are not listed in "/etc/resolv.conf" when invoking "ifup" comman

2014-10-23 Thread R. Becke
Thank you for the detailed analysis - regarding:
... since NetworkManager should still be processed and the 127.0.1.1 should 
still take precedence ...
Actually for me it is important that the "127.0.1.1" does not take precedence 
but instead my local name-servers take precedence (because when my local 
network is up (br0 & br1) then the name-resolving should take place there first 
and not on "127.0.1.1" which points to the internet - otherwise the wrong 
servers are getting resolved).

  iface br0 inet static

  BUT "dns-nameservers 192.168.10.2" and "dns-nameservers 192.168.0.2" DO NOT 
show up in "/etc/resolv.conf"

  WORKAROUND: Until this has been fixed the following workaround works fine for 
me:
  sudo vi /etc/resolvconf/interface-order
  #Add the following entry (this entry can be put on any line BUT it has to 
come before the last entry "*"):

2014-10-23 Thread R. Becke
Just FYI the files I attached previously in "interfaces-and-resolvconf.tgz" was 
done using my workaround mentioned above. For completeness I therefore attach 
as well my "/etc/resolvconf/interface-order" file.
If you like I can as well perform the steps above without applying my 
workaround.

In the attachment you will find the file "/etc/network/interfaces" and
the directory "/run/resolvconf" before ("run-resolvconf-before.tgz") and
after ("run-resolvconf-after.tgz") doing the "sudo ifup br0 br1".

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1310260] Re: Pulseaudio fails to detect card (probably due to hybrid graphics)

2014-10-09 Thread R. Becke
Is there already a sustainable fix for this issue?
I have the same problem on my "HP EliteBook 840 G1".
I'm running "ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64".
Every time when I open the System Settings my computer respective my mouse 
freezes for 1-2 seconds.
And when I try to play a video with totem player then after 10-20 seconds the 
sound disappears and VLC does not play any sound but complains: "Audio output 
failed: The audio device "default" could not be used. Connection refused."
In my kern.log - I get the following logs (similar log entries I get in 
"syslog"):

As described above appended the following entry:
...

at the end of the existing file "/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf"

This works for now but I wonder whether this is the final solution to
this problem.

  Pulseaudio fails to detect card (probably due to hybrid graphics)

Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I wanted to install Trusty on my Elitebook 850 G1 with hybrid graphics (Intel 
/ AMD) but pulseaudio goes nuts on me as soon as I try to play any music / 
sound, try to change volume, etc.
  I've tried it with Ubuntu, Kubuntu and now with Xubuntu with the same result 
everytime.

  My guess is that pulseaudio has problems with the AMD GPU and it's sound 
processor being switched off automatically as enabled by Kernel 3.13 (formerly 
achieved by adding the radeon.runpm=1 kernel parameter)
  (http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2013-September/045650.html)

  root@HP-EliteBook-850-G1:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
  0:IGD:+:Pwr::00:02.0
  1:DIS: :DynOff::03:00.0
  2:DIS-Audio: :Off::03:00.1

  As you can see, the AMD GPU has been turned off automatically. Pulseaudio, 
the (X)Ubuntu volume applet and KMix on the other hand list it as still 
available.
  Based on that I asume pulseaudio tries to access a switched-off device and 
fails.

  I've followed the steps listed
  here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
  and
  here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio/Log

  I'll attach the logs right away. (pulseverbose1.log and my dmesg
  output)

  Pusleverbose is full of messages like this one:
  (   0.013|   0.000) I: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: Error opening PCM device 
hw:0: No such file or directory

  This output of dmesg also caught my attention:
  [  354.927935] HDMI ATI/AMD: no speaker allocation for ELD
  [  357.695010] hda-intel :03:00.1: Disabling via VGA-switcheroo

  One thing I noticed using Kubuntu is that after pulseaudio becomes 
unresponsive the taskmanager lists 4 pulseaudio processes two of which are 
"active on harddrive" ("Aktiv auf Festplatte"). Those two processes cannot be 
killed even as root.
  Currently being on Xubuntu the same thing is true, although it lists only one 
process in the taskmanager that cannot be killed.

  I hope you can help me.

  Best regards,
  Paul
