[Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]

2015-02-09 Thread bulldozer2003
Larry,

Thank you for your work on this wireless driver. I, however, gave up and
bought an Intel 7260 dual-band for my thinkpad on ebay for $20 to stop
dealing with this issue.

Would it help for me to mail you, or someone else working on
development, the realtek Mini PCI Express card I no longer need?

After using the r8192ee driver in the 3.16 kernel, I found SSH sessions to
be extremely unreliable.

Web browsing was tolerable but slow and required occasional retries.

I've now purchased a WiFi USB dongle and will test the r8192ee driver as
new 3.16 kernels are released for utopic.

I wish I had a different card. I would have preferred a dual band card. 

Also, this driver in 3.16 seems stable, I've been using it since my earlier 
post without any problems despite the dmesg warning: 
[3.751315] r8192ee: module is from the staging directory, the quality is 
unknown, you have been warned.

I just installed 14.04.1 on my T440s. Here is how I installed the 3.16
kernel and got wifi working by adding utopic (14.10) sources to apt.

BE WARNED: This may be dangerous.

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add the lines:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-updates main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-security main restricted

apt-get update
apt-get install linux-generic linux-firmware
DO NOT UPGRADE or DIST-UPGRADE!!!
Check that you'll be installing 3.16-x before hitting Y.

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and COMMENT OUT the three lines from above:
#deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic main restricted
#deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-updates main restricted
#deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic-security main restricted

apt-get update
^^^ THIS IS IMPORTANT TO NOT RUIN YOUR SYSTEM^^^

Reboot and enjoy wireless. Occasionally repeat the procedure above to
check for kernel upgrades.

[Bug 362427] Re: Public key ssh auth doesn't work with my Encrypted Home Directory

2014-03-31 Thread bulldozer2003
If you've implementing Dustin's workaround, you may run into a delay
when logging in, and an Xauthority error. This is caused by xauth being
unable to write to your home directory before the encrypted directory is
mounted.

Here is my workaround. Using the ~/.ssh/rc file, the xauth parameters
are written to a temp file, then read into a variable before your
encrypted $HOME is mounted, then passed to xauth.

 put the following files in your UN-encrypted home directory.

~$ cat .ssh/rc 
#!/bin/bash
if read proto cookie && [ -n "$DISPLAY" ]; then
  if [ $(echo $DISPLAY | cut -c1-10) = 'localhost:' ]; then
# X11UseLocalhost=yes
echo add unix:$(echo $DISPLAY | cut -c11-) $proto $cookie > 
~/.ssh/xauth_temp
  else
# X11UseLocalhost=no
echo add $DISPLAY $proto $cookie > ~/.ssh/xauth_temp
  fi
fi

~$ cat .bash_login 
#!/bin/bash
if test -e $HOME/.ecryptfs/auto-mount; then
  XAUTH=$(cat ~/.ssh/xauth_temp)
  mount | grep "$HOME type ecryptfs"
  if test $? != 0; then
ecryptfs-mount-private
cd $HOME
source ~/.bashrc
  fi
  echo $XAUTH | xauth -q -
fi

Hope this helps someone!

The original .bash_login script comes from:
