To add one more data point, I hit the same problem when upgrading from Kubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. Ondrej's workaround is also effective for my setup. In the end, the upgraded system was unusable for other problems as well so I did a fresh install. However, I kept the lvm volume group on luks device

[Bug 84899] Re: SSH with GSSAPIAuthentication option on SSH servers are very slow

2012-03-14 Thread Torsten Landschoff
I run into this with Ubuntu lucid frequently when connecting to CentOS systems. I have no local Kerberos configuration. A good fix for me would be to have SSH check if kerberos is locally configured before trying to do Kerberos authentication. However I have no idea how feasible this approach is.

2012-01-24 Thread Torsten Landschoff
I actually applied the fix manually but did not set the fixed package on hold as I had the hope that any update to the grub package in lucid would fix this. Yesterday my system crashed while working with schroot and snapshots and is now unbootable again :-) So I am interested in a fix once again

This seems to be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/pcb/+bug/699251 I don't think it is fixed, it is only hard to reproduce. We just ran into this with an in-house application that has no relation to xsane. Basically, whenever a throbber is displayed, we get a crash. This happens only on one

The BadMatch error is returned from the render extension somewhere in this code block: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/tree/render/picture.c?id=b2015a2c01711646bb7ae23d684abee0cd55d4d0#n1096 One reason would be that the mask pixmap is from another screen (no idea) or has the wrong depth

While installation security updates to my lucid system, this made my system unbootable last week. I spent half an hour today to make it bootable again. I booted from supergrubdisk which also failed to detect LVM (it usually did). I ended up using Knoppix and noticed the leftover snapshot (created

[Bug 682613] Re: Transition to swig2.0?

2010-12-19 Thread Torsten Landschoff
A further note about the transition to SWIG 2.0: It turned out that most packages that require SWIG for building have a flawed version check (distributed in autoconf-archive) that considers version 2.0 smaller than 1.3. So while 2.0 should work fine most of the time, it is usually rejected before

This problem has also bugged me, albeit on Debian. And I spent an hour or two to do it the right way and get UDF (in that case) to ignore the permissions on the filesystem. After playing with mount options to no avail, I finally gave up and became root to get the discs content copied. I think it

If it was my decision, the answer would be clear: Rename firefox to iceweasel and be done with it. Now. Otherwise, this stupidity will just continue. What if Firefox demands that installation should be prohibited on slow machines so that users don't get a wrong impression about performance? Abort
