[Bug 1862061] [NEW] virtualbox support vnc rather than rdp connections even after virtualbox-ext-pack is installed

2020-02-05 Thread James R. Phillips
Public bug reported: The rdp connection support supposed to be installed with virtualbox-ext- pack does not work. Logging into the rdp port with telnet shows the message: "RFB 003.008" This indicates a RFB/VNC style display server rather than the RDP server in the extension pack. This may be

Public bug reported: Apparently the package appmenu-qt5 interferes with the ability to use the keyboard shortcuts in the ipe drawing program, if ipe is compiled with qt5. Workarounds apparently include recompiling ipe to use qt4, or removing the appmenu-qt5 from the system. I chose to remove

[Bug 152794] Re: nis daemon fails to attach to domain the first time it is run in Gutsy

2008-03-22 Thread James R. Phillips
OK, I found a different machine that doesn't use LVM, and was able to complete an install, then set up nis. While I didn't set up a nis login, I was able to use ypcat after a clean reboot, and a local login. So apparently all is well. This was using the daily build posted on 3/21. Daily torrents

Hm, well I tried. But I need to actually do an install in order to test it. That is, I need to install, configure NIS, then boot to test. But there is a rub. I can't install from the Live CD, because I use LVM, which isn't supported. I have to use the alternate install, which isn't

The machine with this problem is not a master in my home setup - the master is a headless server/router running debian etch. So distributing maps is not an issue, I just need to attach to the domain. I have a workaround though - I simply added /etc/init.d/nis restart as a line in /etc/rc.local.

OK, thanks. I am away from home at the moment, but will try this when I get back home - I don't want to try rebooting remotely while this problem exists. Another thing - there are over 200 open bugs on network manager, and I was unable to find one that was clearly linked to the issue you

Um, what about a work-around while I am waiting for the real fix? The current state of this problem requires being at the console to manually login as a non-nis user with sudo privileges, to rerun the nis startup command, following any reboot. -- nis daemon fails to attach to domain the first

Initially I did a server install, so the problem was first observed with the server kernel. Subsequently I installed (by a chroot method) the generic kernel, and that is what I reported the bug against. But as I mentioned in the initial bug report, the issue exits with both kernels, at least
