[Bug 549727] Re: Touchpad stops working after login

2012-03-09 Thread Patrick Horgan
It seems like these two commands together get them back in sync:

synclient TouchpadOff=0
gconftool-2 --set --type boolean 
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled true

Either one of them will make my touch pad start working, but both
together seems to fix the problem.

 The firefox AppArmor profile is supposed to be opt-in and disabled by

 There was a bug in the packaging during the development cycle for 9.10
 for people using daily builds or using firefox-3.5 on 9.04 and upgrading
 to 9.10.
That was me.
 One of the reasons the profile is disabled by default is because of the
 issues discussed here, and also because the profile is still in
 development (though still quite useful for many users).
For me as well.
 ... elsion...   IMO, too
 much autoconfiguration of the profile (ie, via ld.so.conf or other
 methods) makes it difficult to understand the profile and why it is
 working (or not working) the way it does, though we could probably just
 add /usr/local/lib to the profile.
   
I certainly hope you do.

Dave Gilbert wrote:
 I think the behaviour you are describing is the correct behaviour; since
 firefox shouldn't normally be reading libraries from /usr/local/lib it
 shouldn't have permissions in apparmor to let it read it.
   
Why would that be?  If you have libraries in /usr/local/lib, you have 
them there to be used.  You have to go out of you way to get ld.so to 
look there.  What possible rationale could you come up with to say that 
firefox shouldn't have access to one of the normal places to put 
libraries?  (For MANY source packages the $PREFIX is /usr/local.  The 
only effect of it, since if ld.so chooses that library, it IS the one 
that firefox will get, is a denial of service attack on firefox.  Also, 
it's damn near impossible to figure out what's wrong because there's no 
error messages when you run firefox from the gui.  It's just a hard 
failure.  I'm a software engineer and it had me stumped for months!  I 
asked on all the forums, got some me toos, but nobody had a clue, or 
could even give me a path to follow to debug it.  I didn't know about 
apparmor at all.  Hadn't heard of it.  I also didn't get to run 
realplayer because of this:

Dec 27 16:38:29 dell kernel: [412052.692079] type=1503 
audit(1261960709.131:876): operation=open pid=16346 parent=1 
profile=/usr/lib/firefox-3.5*/firefox{,*[^s][^h]} requested_mask=::r 
denied_mask=::r fsuid=1002 ouid=0 
name=/opt/real/RealPlayer/mozilla/nphelix.so

I suppose you'd say there's no reason for firefox to access 
/opt/real/RealPlayer/mozilla/**  either, but these are normal 
configurations, and on ubuntu with this setup, it fails for normal use.  
That's user hostile.

Developers are normal users of ubuntu, no?

[Bug 501822] Re: firefox 3.x won't load with libraries in /usr/local/lib

2009-12-31 Thread Patrick Horgan
1) How would they know to add to their apparmor profile?  There's no
error message at any time that says that anything failed because of
apparmor.  Even running from a command line, there's no error message
that says that apparmor denied access.  If when using a gui, and
something was blocked by apparmor a gui popup came up and told me so,
and that I would have to modify a file in /etc/apparmor.d if I wanted to
proceed, or better a mother-may-I that would do it for me,  I would have
a little more sympathy for your position, but really, doing development
is a normal use of a Linux box.  /usr/local/lib is a default location
for many things, and not letting firefox load a library that ld.so
presents to it is a denial of service.  I understand that you want to
make sure that firefox can't do something that I didn't ask it to do,
but I did ask it, now didn't I?

2) The path for RealPlayer was NOT included.  I just added it today.  I
was also trying to figure out for months why mplayer quit working
embedded.  I found others with the same problem, but no answers
anywhere.  Google for people wondering why nphelix.so won't load.
You'll find plenty of thrashing about, but not one add a new rule to a
file in /etc/apparmor.d.  I'm trying not to come across as security
clueless, or worse as a luddite.  I just don't agree that it is a
security problem, to allow a program to load libraries ld.so wants to
load for it.

From the man page for ld.so:

   The necessary shared libraries needed by the program are  searched  for
   in the following order

   o  Using  the  environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  (LD_AOUT_LIBRARY_PATH for a.out programs).  Except if  the  exe‐
  cutable is a setuid/setgid binary, in which case it is ignored.

   o  From  the  cache file /etc/ld.so.cache which contains a compiled
  list of candidate libraries previously found  in  the  augmented
  library path.

   o  In the default path /lib, and then /usr/lib.

In my case, (as in normal) ld.so.conf, used by ldconfig to know where to
look for libraries, the so called augmented security path, has only a
line to include all the files found in the directory /etc/ld.so.conf.d,
In that directory there's a file libc.conf that has a line
/usr/local/lib. That makes ldconfig build the cache including libraries
in /usr/local/lib.  It's the purpose of the thing!  It's been there
since 2007, and things used to work just fine.  Then after some update
firefox started not working with never an error that mentioned security,
nor apparmor.   There's not a comment in /etc/ld.so.conf, nor a README
in /etc/ld.so.conf.d, nor a section in the man pages ld.so(8), nor
ldconfig(8), nor a helpful message printed by ldconfig the many times it
ran as part of running apt-get upgrade, that would say, this won't work
if you use apparmor unless you add rules to make it so.  I can tell you
that it hasn't been fun!  I pretty quickly figured out that removing the
libraries from /usr/local/lib was a work around, but it was months
before I figured out why.  I asked on ubuntu forums, in the gcc-help
list, and many other places, and no one knew the answer.  I finally got
on to it when trying to figure out if somehow, selinux could be
harassing me even though I had it turned off.  That lead me to
/var/log/kern.log and FINALLY I got a clue that lead somewhere, not
immediately to apparmor, but only a few minutes later.

It would be nice if apparmor used a variable for places that ld.so could
use that would be built automatically and then that variable could be
used in rules, but absent that, at the least, /usr/local/lib/** rm,
should be included in /etc/apparmor.d/firefox-3.x

[Bug 501822] [NEW] firefox 3.x won't load with libraries in /usr/local/lib

2009-12-30 Thread Patrick Horgan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

This affects all versions of firefox with profiles in /etc/apparmor.d on all 
versions of Ubuntu using apparmor to control firefox.  On my machine that's 
firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.6 on:
Linux dell 2.6.31-17-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 16:20:31 UTC 2009 i686 
GNU/Linux
After building gcc on my machine firefox couldn't run because it couldn't load 
/usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.6.  To fix the problem, a line needed to be added 
to each of the firefox profiles, e.g. to /etc/apparmor.d/firefox-3.5, add a 
line:

/usr/local/lib/** rm,

right after the same line for /usr/lib.

An ideal situation would be if gnome would give us something in the

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 202089 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202089

This shouldn't be a duplicate.  This is the same as my problem, and
unlike 202089, in this bug killing pulseaudio doesn't fix the problem
for the reporter or for me, i.e. the sound won't restart.  I once had
that problem on Hardy but don't anymore--this is different.  The
reporter did a great job of demonstrating that while killing pulseaudio
won't get his sound back the alsa force-reload will.  It's the same for
me.  It's nice that the alsa force-reload gets sound back, but I'd
really like to have pulseaudio working like it did before the upgrade to
ibex.  So, please remove the duplicate status.

Thanks for the pointer, I checked and was doing everything correctly.
The test they suggest, sh -c 'kill -SEGV $$' does result in apport
offering to file a report of bash crashing.  Openoffice still fails to
start.  Still no apport action.  Still shows the exact same segv in gdb
when I run it.  Nothing has changed, in spite of now having upgraded to
the intrepid release candidate.  Great sadness.  Sun's version works,
Ubuntu's does not.  It seg faults, and doesn't cause apport to start.
Now what?

touching the missing file results in it passing this point and
segfaulting when it can't find

Now, this is on a clean install (over and over) and this directory,
~/.openoffice.org2 and it's contents was created by openoffice on first
running just before it faults because something is missing there.

[Bug 262799] Re: openoffice fails to start

2008-10-21 Thread Patrick Horgan
Your suggestion does not help. I've uninstalled openoffice, did
updatedb, removed everything with openoffice in the name or path.  Then
I do apt-get install openoffice.org.  The problem is identical.  It seg
faults as I reported.  Apport does not report it although it did pick up
that on removal unopkg.bin crashed and reported it.  /etc/default/apport
has enabled=1.  Nevertheless, the seg fault in openoffice does not
result in a report from apport, nor anything in /var/crash.  To say that
I shouldn't have my bug fixed because apport won't report it is cruel.
If you don't like my stack backtrace tell me what you want.

Here's a current stack backtrace from after the reinstallation:

[Bug 267622] [NEW] Removable drives do not automount

2008-09-07 Thread Patrick Horgan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hal

Until recently removable drives automounted fine but sometime in the
last week it quit working.  It affects DVDs, usb flash drives and SD's
plugged into the SD slot on my dell inspiron.  Until just recently, they
all worked just fine.  I can, for example mount an SD myself manually
with mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/sd and access it without
problem.

I'm on Hardy with all updates as of today.

[Bug 262799] [NEW] openoffice fails to start

2008-08-29 Thread Patrick Horgan
Public bug reported:

I'm in 8.04 with all updates done as of today, and somewhere in the last
few day openoffice started failing, i.e. a short splash screen appears
and then goes away.  Running any openoffice application from the command
line is the same, and no output is generated in the console window.  I
did apt-get purge openoffice* followed by apt-get install
openoffice.org.  I also tried various things I saw on the net like
removing the openoffice.org-gtk package and removing my .openoffice.org2
from my home directory, but nothing changes the behavior.  I did gdb
soffice.bin and it shows a seg fault. Sorry I don't have the debugging
symbols.  Hope this helps.  I've read from others that I can install the
Sun version and it will work, but I'm going to hold off until I really
need it.  Hopefully in the next week or so a fix will be propogated.
Seg faults are easy to debug:)

[Bug 198453] Re: Default ALSA device must use PulseAudio, otherwise ALSA applications may fail

2008-08-04 Thread Patrick Horgan
I tried.  I looked at all the configuration information, the perfect
setups, the tips.  I'm a computer savvy guy that's been using linux for
years.  I'm a software engineer with a MS in CS.  But I can't get
everything working with pulseaudio installed.  I like the idea, I wish
it worked, but my SDL sound was distorted, my flash videos had no sound,
I went round and round with different configuration setups, and never
got everything working at once the way I wanted.  So, finally I removed
it again and after much manual reconfiguration everything's working fine
now.  When I can do apt-get install pulseaudio, and everything works
without doing anything else, let me know.  Until then it's not ready for
prime time and certainly not ready for use as a default.  I hear that my
start up sounds won't work, but I always thought that a bizarre idea
anyway, so I don't use them.  I find it hard to believe that Ubuntu
would have been set up so that you couldn't get system sounds without
breaking other things though, so I'll take that with a grain of salt.

This is triggered when the window is partially covered and then exposed.  The 
application gets an SDL
event of type SDL_VIDEOEXPOSE so it calls SDL_GL_SwapBuffers.  The program has 
been working for
years.  But I rebuilt it today (had rebuilt it many times in the last few days 
and it worked fine) and it quit
working:(  Something I upgraded did me in, but looking through the apt log, I 
can't put a finger on it.

Nothing else hangs when it does, X keeps working, the machine keeps
working.

[Bug 150129] Re: [Gutsy] ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

2008-07-30 Thread Patrick Horgan
I get the same error message on Hardy when trying to use SDL audio. 
(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
If I kill pulseaudio, or uninstall it everything works fine.  What is 
pulseaudio?  If I uninstall it everything works ok, so why do I need/want it?

[Bug 198453] Re: Default ALSA device must use PulseAudio, otherwise ALSA applications may fail

2008-07-30 Thread Patrick Horgan
Here it is July 30, and Hardy sound is still broken.  A lot more works,
but not everything.  Today a game that uses SDL sound failed.  I killed
pulseaudio and all was fine.  I don't understand why the choice was made
to use pulseaudio.  I've seen posts extolling the many benefits, but
they never say what they are.  In the meantime, it seems the benefits
have been much disruption of ubuntu and much frustration for users, and
many broken sound apps.  Excuse me, if I'm not sold on those benefits.
What can I do with it that I couldn't do without it?  Nothing.  On the
contrary my regular life as a ubuntu user is still broken in JULY!  8.04
has been a disappointment because of it.  It's not what I was accustomed
to from Ubunutu.  To allow one group to hijack sound and then say that
everyone else is broken is arrogant and cruel, user hostility at it's
worst.

[Bug 220343] Re: Synaptic touchpad button click usually doesn't work

2008-06-28 Thread Patrick Horgan
I'm now in Hardy and the problem still exists.

Using GuestMouseOff On and a lot of tweaking in the other Synaptics
settings gets it to where it mostly works, but when someone is used to a
laptop that really works and they try to use my machine for a minute
they quickly give up in disgust unless I plug in an external mouse.
When I move over a border of a window and get the resizing icon,
pressing the left button will sometimes result in being able to resize
the window, sometimes not, sometimes I have to touch it two or three
times, sometimes I can just hold the button down and in a second or two
I'll suddenly get the size (80 x 43) feedback letting me know that X has
noticed I'm trying to resize the window.  If that doesn't work I try
letting go of the button and touching again.  Sometimes it perversely
just won't do it at all.  If anyone works on this and wants any feedback
I'm very motivated to help:)  I'm attaching my current touchpad settings
from synclient -l

[Bug 202089] Re: Pulseaudio is blocking normal sound after resume

2008-06-04 Thread Patrick Horgan
I haven't used sound for a couple of weeks, so I don't know when it
happened, but with Hardy kernel linux 2.6.24-18-generic and  Audio
device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev
02).  I have the same problem after clean powerup.  In Rythymbox play
doesn't;) and killing pulseaudio makes everything work fine.

[Bug 164066] Re: Evince hangs up and loads CPU

2008-04-28 Thread Patrick Horgan
Same problem 2.6.22.1.1
hardy heron
built a debug version to see what was going on, but it worked perfectly.
Could give you a backtrace of the failing version, but without symbols it 
doesn't look helpful.
Slightly bizarre, but when I uninstalled the debug version installed in 
/usr/local, the other version started working for the first time in weeks!
Perhaps it was something the install of the debug version did?  I didn't try 
the failing version until after I'd already uninstalled the debug version.

[Bug 206682] Re: awn-manager crashed with GError in make_icon()

2008-04-24 Thread Patrick Horgan
similar problem fixed by using gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders to fix my 
gdk-pixbuf.loaders file.
1) find your gdk-pixbuf.loaders file mine was 
/usr/local/etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
2) check where gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders executable is.  I found it in two 
places.  /usr/local/bin and /usr/bin.  
The one in /usr/local/bin generated output that didn't know about svg 
files, and caused the problem.
3) run the correct one and redirect its output to replace your 
gdk-pixbuf.loaders file.

[Bug 220343] [NEW] Synaptic touchpad button click usually doesn't work

2008-04-21 Thread Patrick Horgan
Public bug reported:

clicking the left button on a title bar to move a window, or on the edge of a 
window would usually result in nothing.
Rarely it would work.
Today I set in xorg.conf  GuestMouseOff on just because I don't have a 
trackstick.  To my surprise, it's a workaround
for my problem (At least so far.)  This problem has persisted since I 
upgraded to Gutsy, and nothing else I've
tried has helped.  I'm using the Synaptic driver.

Using Ubuntu 7.10
