Re: ipv6: temp address does not renew
A follow up on this. I recently swapped my ISP's router with my own. New temp-addresses are now generated when old ones become deprecated, as expected. I haven't checked thoroughly (yet), but the only immediate difference I can see, is that the router lifetime is 600 seconds (RA). My ISP's router used a lifetime of 86400 seconds (24h), I think. Best, Andreas

It means _without_ serifs, which are (according to wikipedia) "small line or stroke regularly attached to the end of a larger stroke in a letter or symbol within a particular font or family of fonts." Which to me seems like pretty much only way to separate a small 'l' from a big 'i', To me, without the serifs, both those characters are simply a line from top to bottom.

Re: Re: ipv6: temp address does not renew
Arno, Thank you so much for your prompt response. Very interesting that it's working as expected for you. At least I can isolate the problem to being local for my network. I asked about this in #debian on irc, and it was suggested that I check if I use dhcpv6 or dhcpv6-pd. I'm not 100% into ipv6 terminology, but I think my ISP uses dhcp-pd to give me a prefix. Other than that I don't think dhcpv6 is in use. I use SLAAC with and without privacy extensions (basically, a complete default setup). In any case, I do not believe that my ISP changed anything in those 30 minutes it took me to install bookworm, so I can't understand why it behaves differently. I'll have to dig deeper. Thank you for input and comments! Best, Andreas
ipv6: temp address does not renew
Hi, I'm very puzzled by the behaviour of ipv6 temp addresses on Debian 12. Expected behaviour: as soon as a temp address becomes deprecated, a new one is generated. This is the behaviour on Debian 11. What actually happens: When the (first) temp address becomes deprecated (in my case, this happens in practice 24h after boot, i.e. after the interface is brought up), no new temp address is generated. When the temp address is deprecated, outgoing connections start to use the eui64 address. I.e., my mac address is being used on the internet. This seems very weird to me, and cannot possibly be intended? I did some checking to try to find out why this is (not relevant as it turns out, but still). As far as I can tell, the relevant ipv6-settings is the same on both Debian 11 and Debian 12: net.ipv6.conf.all.temp_prefered_lft = 86400 (= 24h) net.ipv6.conf.all.temp_valid_lft = 604800 (= 7d) net.ipv6.conf..use_tempaddr = 2 NetworkManager version differences: NetworkManager version in Debian 11: 1.30.6 NetworkManager version in Debian 12: 1.42.4 I wanted to downgrade the version on Debian 12, but no old version is available. I then disabled NetworkManager and used /etc/network/interfaces (with privext = 2) to administer my interface to see if that made a difference, but the problem is the same. Tested on two different machines; the problem exist on both. Best regards, Andreas
Sound volume doesn't stick between reboots
Hi! I have a problem where sound volume doesn't stick between reboots - I have an external USB sound "card", a Behringer UMC204HD, which is detected just fine by the alsa tools and everything, but, as said, it doesn't get volume stuck between reboots. I need to go into alsamixer in the terminal and select the Behringer and increase the volume there every time. I have done alsactl store, as mentioned on https://wiki.debian.org/SoundConfiguration (which as mentioned should be done automatically on every shutdown, but which it seems not to be done as I have described). In the mixer of Xfce's puvlseaudio plugin all volumes are properly set, and nothing needs to be done there. This is on a Bookworm system, just upgraded from Bullseye (where all this wasn't necessary), running Xfce. Does anyone have any clue to a fix? -- Andreas Rönnquist mailingli...@gusnan.se andr...@ronnquist.net [Please don't CC me, if I mail to a mailinglist, I am subscribed to it.]

xdm not autostarting
Hi all, Unfortunately I can't trace exactly how I got myself in this situation, but right now, xdm does not autostart for me. Largely, what I did: Install bullseye without GUI but install xdm later manually. I also upgraded to bookworm (for other reasons). It might well be that the issue is not bookworm specific, though, but rather was present before the upgrade. When I reboot I am left at the text console (Xorg.0.log) attached. It seems that the xdm service fails because of 'no screens found'. When I log in as root then and run 'service xdm start' xdm starts fine. ('systemctl get-default' returns 'graphical.target') What should be my next steps to resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Dear all, Thanks for chiming in. The example was indeed simplified and I am using %a which can contain internal whitespace. This is the command I was using previously: ps -eo '%p|%c|%C' -o "%mem" -o '|%a' --sort=-%cpu I now replaced it with ps -eo '%p %c %C' -o "%mem" -o ' %a' --sort=-%cpu | sed -E 's/([0-9]+) (.+) ([0-9]+.?[0-9]?) ([0-9]+.?[0-9]?) (.+)/\1|\2|\3|\4|\5/' This works, but is of course cumbersome to maintain. Again, thanks for all the comments! Best, Andreas

ps and AIX field descriptors
Hi all, I am facing a strange issue. This command used to work ps -eo '%p|%C' Now, on a debian testing machine only ps -eo '%p %C' works. Running ps -eo '%p|%C' results in this error: error: improper AIX field descriptor ps --version says 'ps from procps-ng 4.0.2' Now my question: How can I restore the previous behaviour that allowed other than whitespace separators between fields? Thanks in advance! Andreas

How to best whitelist CDN deb.debian.org?
Hello all, I am sitting behind a firewall, in my case esp. ZScaler. I am wondering, what the best way is to whitelist "deb.debian.org" for package management. Do I have to whitelist individually all mirror sites that back the CDN? If so, is there an up-to-date list of the hosts backing "deb.debian.org"? Offtopic: Do you know, whether services like ZScaler provide dedicated support for CDNs? Thanks in advance, Andreas

Mouse left button acts really strange
Hi! I have massive problems with my Logitech M705 - Or specifically with the left mouse button. Sometimes (very often) singleclick becomes double-click, dragging items is very hard, it drops the drag before I release the mouse button. Clicking on the terminal icon in my xfce panel often starts three terminals. The weird thing is that mouse movement and the mousewheel works just fine. No problems there of any kind. This is independent of which program I use - in Claws Mail, the Chromium browser, and also in virtualbox and Steam games. This is on an up to date Debian 11 Bullseye (just upgraded to the first point release), Xfce desktop, Nvidia graphicscard using the Nvidia drivers on Xorg. All packages up-to-date with Debian 11.1. On my latest boot of the system, it looked to me like the button acted normally for about one minute, but then the usual crap started happening again, so I assume that the mouse hardware is fine. (I have also tried another mouse - same behaviour). Mouse section in xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection It was this earlier: Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" - but no difference, independent on which "Device" I use there.

I used the installer default which is EFI. I admit I have no idea how to convince that MacBook to use something else. Its the first time I've got my hand on any Apple hardware - so no idea how I can switch to something else from hardware side (nor whether I need to change something on the Debian installation. > How did you initiate the hibernate? sudo systemctl hibernate (as well as what lxde offers in its menu - no idea how that is called in English locale). > What does `cat /sys/power/disk` say? $ cat /sys/power/disk [platform] shutdown reboot suspend test_resume > Try changing it, e.g. via `echo shutdown >/sys/power/disk` # echo shutdown >/sys/power/disk # cat /sys/power/disk platform [shutdown] reboot suspend test_resume > (that won't help for suspend but it might help for hibernation since > step 3 above suggests that the machine didn't *really* turn itself off). Yes, this is what I suspect. The issue is in the process of suspending / hibernating and not in the process of waking up again.

Suspend on old MacBook with fresh Bullseye installation
Hi, I've got some MacBook from 2008 to install Debian on it and hand it over to some user who needs a decent office machine. I've installed Bullseye RC1 which worked nicely (except that I had to manually add WLAN driver broadcom-sta-dkms later). The only real flaw is that neither suspend nor hibernate are working. I think the problem is independent from the desktop choice (I've installed lxde) since I can reproduce the issue also at command line: sudo systemctl suspend I also used hibernate as well as the LXDE controls or closing the lid - the result is always the same: 1. Black screen 2. Network disabled (ssh session freezes, no ping from other host) 3. Fan keeps on moving silently 4. Can't wake up to normal operation neither by - opening the lid - pressing any key - pressing power button So I had to press power button for some seconds to power down the hard way. I checked /var/log/syslog which has something like: May 6 07:38:57 noel systemd[1]: Reached target Sleep. May 6 07:38:57 noel systemd[1]: Starting Hibernate...

In the first place /proc/acpi/wakeup was just empty. I followed the recommendation and created /etc/systemd/system/suspend-fix.service and so I got: $ cat /proc/acpi/wakeup Device S-state Status Sysfs node ADP1 S3*disabled platform:ACPI0003:00 LID0 S3*enabled platform:PNP0C0D:00 ECS3*disabled platform:PNP0C09:00 OHC1 S3*enabled pci::00:04.0 EHC1 S3*enabled pci::00:04.1 OHC2 S3*enabled pci::00:06.0 EHC2 S3*enabled pci::00:06.1 GIGE S5*disabled pci::00:0a.0 Unfortunately this does not change anything. I was wondering about the black screen and suspected that the video driver might be responsible for the problem. Despite I'm perfectly fine with the nuoveau driver I simply tried nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver (only in unstable) hoping that this might solve the suspend problem. I was able to install the driver but it had really strange colors. For instance the Bluetooth symbol was brown and the desktop icon for power off was blue (instead of red). Besides the strange colors there is also no change in the broken suspend process so I switched back to nuoveau driver. Is there any idea how to get suspend working reliably on this otherwise pretty decent machine? Kind regards Andreas.

reprepro using a gpg certificate
Hi! I have managed to setup a personal repository for backports from unstable to stable only for personal usage. Everything works just fine, with one small exception: After I dput a package I must login to the repository server, and run a shell script containing the reprepro command, which I cannot automate, since it requests entry of a password for a gpg key. Does anyone have some simple instructions to setup reprepro so I don't have to enter this password by hand - I understand that I can use some kind of gpg certificate to get around this, but I haven't managed to set it up properly. I want to do the reprepro command in a crontab so that eventual uploaded packages get processed automatically every X minutes, but then it (of course) cannot require someone to fill in a gpg password. Is there any simple tutorial somewhere that I haven't found? thanks in advance -- Andreas Rönnquist mailingli...@gusnan.se andr...@ronnquist.net [Please don't CC me, if I mail to a mailinglist, I am subscribed to it.]

I was supposing that Mark's answer implied that (against general policies of debian and for reasons unknown to me) in this case security changes of upstream would be passed on to debian, even if binutils is "not covered by security support". If this is (probably?) not the case, the fact that binutils is supported by upstream of course is of no help. It's difficult to swallow that in *stable* debian should leave its users alone as to the security of such a central peace of software as binutils. So I'm still hoping to find out that security updates for binutils in debian stable are in some (maybe unconventional way) secured. Andreas

No security support for binutils and libqt5webkit5, what to do?
Hi, I just went from jessie to buster and I didn't discover any serious problem so far. But I tried to remove all packages where there is no or only limitid security support and ended up with 5 packages I don't think I should/can remove: binutils (and binutils-common, libbinutils, binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu) and libqt5webkit5. binutils is needed quite often and if I want to remove libqt5webkit5 among other things plasma-desktop disappears. Do I just have to live with these packages without security support or is there any way arround it?

How secure are nested/indirect file access restrictions?
Hello! Let's assume the following file permissions: drwxr-xr-x root root /srv drwxr-x--- root srv-www /srv/www drwxrws--x root dev-1/srv/www/dom-1 -rw-rw-r-- usr-1 dev-1/srv/www/dom-1/index.php While the html subfolder perms allow write access only to root and users within dev-1, index.php would be world-readable, but "indirectly" filtered by the perms of www, which denies access to anyone that is not a group member of srv-www. (of course, any member of dev-1 must be a member of srv-www, too) The idea is to distinct between one user (file-owner), one group with write access (e.g. developer) and one group with limited read access (webserver), and to deny access to anyone else at the same time, using standard unix access rights. Are there any security implications? By now, I only came across that remounting the file structure would break the permissions in effect. But (re)mounting shall be allowed by root only. /andy

systemd automount - Parameter TimeoutIdleSec ignored?
Hi all, I need a device to be automatically mounted on access and unmounted when being idle. My /etc/fstab entry: /dev/sdc1 /mnt/auto ext4 defaults,noauto,x-systemd.automount,\ x-systemd.idle-timeout=10 0 0 Systemd correctly creates the mnt-auto.mount und mnt-auto.automount unit files and automounting works perfectly. x-systemd.idle-timeout=10 is getting translated to TimeoutIdleSec=10s within mnt-auto.automount. According to the manpages (sytemd.automount(5)), the parameter TimeoutIdleSec specifies the time interval after which the device is to be be unmounted: "TimeoutIdleSec: Configures an idle timeout. Once the mount has been idle for the specified time, systemd will attempt to unmount." However, this never happens. It seems that this parameter is completely ignored and the device never unmounted. Is it a bug, or what did i miss to get it working? regards, andy -- Debian Jessie Systemd 230-7~bpo8+2
systemd and initial tmpfs mounts
Hi all, earlier in SysV there was /etc/default/tmpfs to configure the initial mounts like /run, /run/lock, /dev/shm, /tmp and so on. Now with systemd there is /lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount as unit file for /tmp, but where are the other tmpfs mounts configured? Which part of systemd is responsible for them?

This message is probably from u-boot and I'm guessing you're using an usb keyboard. Possibly either usb-support is not enabled in the u-boot build and/or the "usb start" command has not been run to scan the usb bus.

Please also note that there are tradeoffs to consider here. Running "usb start" will add a noticable delay in your bootup times. Probably worth it since otherwise people in the situation you described above can run into problems.

You seems to have reason to work on this then... or hire someone to help you. ;) Debian lives on peoples contributions.

What a hack. You probably want to use something like this still, but please beware that in testing/unstable X is now running without root privilegies normally (unless you use a Display Manager which still starts X as root or you use the xserver-xorg-legacy package that was introduced for those who want the old behaviour back).

Re: Problems playing stuff on Soundcloud

The player is clearly visible, and the play button can be pressed, but it doesn't do anything, the marker for where in the song you are located doesn't move at all, but the play button is changed to a pause button. On pages of albums with several songs, it starts the first song, and steps to the next without playing anything whatsoever. Flash is installed and all flash pages work just fine. (I don't know if soundcloud uses flash). Has anyone else got this problem and perhaps a solution? Better late than never: I solved it by going to another new iceweasel profile...
