Bug#884969: dist-upgrade to stretch

[Andreas Glaeser]

It seems I forgot to mention cupsd print-server, printing was not workable upon 
upgrading.

Bug#881020: code not parallelized

[Andreas Glaeser]

In my particular case this is about DSA-signatures in Thunderbird with 
Enigmail. These are
very slow to re-check for messages with large attachments. I have a low-end 
25-W PC only
some notebooks and other embedded devices may also be affected by this problem.
When there are 3 to 4 compute-cores available and only one of them is used for
crypto-operations, obviously things are going slower than they could be.
Concerns about parallelizing crypto-code are generally understandable, because 
people
don't want to give away code-integrity and -safety for speed and 
auto-parallelizing does
not seem recommendable.
In spite of that, things should not deliberately be additionally worsened by
double-checking without any real need to do so.

Bug#881022: Fwd: Enigmail is very slow to check signatures

[Andreas Glaeser]

Package: enigmail
Version: 2:1.9.8.1-1~deb9u1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

the main problem seems to be her, that generally crypto-code is not 
parallelised. For
example as in my case on a low-end 25W-PC or on notebooks an other embedded 
devices,
there is one compute-core used only for checking DSA-signatures in Thunderbird
with Enigmail, although 3 or 4 are available. So some things are much slower in 
practice
than they could be. 
It is understandable, that there are security concerns, about parallelizing 
crypto-code
and it should not be auto-parallelized, because users could well go devoid of 
their
data-integrity and one might well give away code-reliability for speed. That is 
of course
not recommendable.

Comments/Problems:

Installing base system only and ssh-server went basically fine, but the system 
was not
bootable upon the process. Instead I had to edit the grub-entry manually and 
change the
linux-root from /dev/sdc5 --> /dev/sdb5 becuase, the USB-key from which the 
installer ran
was removed, as recommended, and thus the device-name of the filesystem-root 
changed.

This made the system bootable permanenty, without editing grub-command-line 
every time:

I am not convinced, that what you claim is true, since the 
hybrid-filesystem-concept
worked on pure debian-stable, it should be workable with backports included and 
on current
testing, too.
You can have /usr in a separate partition, the symlink-workaroud to 
BTRFS-constraints
should also be workable.
I will make a KVM-image with an hybrid filesystem in order to prove, that this 
is not an
unsupported concept, but Debian is currently suffering from some severe 
regressions in
the field of md-raid. md-raid has never been workable very well in asymmetric
configurations at least from my own experience.
Please don't try to shine your communication-problems by giving me incorrect 
facts.

Now I was sitting down again to install without md-raid and without XFS-root.
I can reconfirm, that the described problem does not appear with BTRFS-raid

It is workable now, so the problem may be located in the vicinity of systemd, 
but it
actually does not show without XFS on md-RAID and hybrid filesystem-/.

It seems, that I forgot about the disk-configuration, I tried to have as much 
redundancy
as possible, with the filesystem-/ on md-raid1 (XFS), made with the installer, 
and the
oter two partitions /mnt/bsys and /home with BTRFS-RAID1, made upon first boot, 
all of
them over the internal SD-card and the harddisk.
It is basically workable, as long as I do not upgrade all the software to the 
versions in
backports.

Bug#800367: How to say No!! in a polite though ridiculous way

[Andreas Glaeser]

e 
of the term
'mobile'. It means, that is resembles a notebook, and thus the 
openchrome-driver needs to
use the LVDS digital output, which is connected to the integrated LCD-screen.
The other VIA-thin-clients work fine as nano-servers, graphic-output is 
dispensable, but
neoware m100 should probably be used as a mobile-thin-client, because it has an 
integrated
LCD-screen. 
Unfortunately the memory of the device is not really upgradable, because one 
memory-socket
is missing, and the other is connected only half-ways, one-sided. On top of this
limitation, the device lacks USB2-ports, so it is badly, badly below standard, 
and using
it is not really fun, except if you have some retro-computing interests maybe.
To put it at simple terms: I will happily test the Debian-package of 
openchrome-driver on
the device, as they come in, but compiling the driver source-code myself is 
clearly out
of my scope in the context. I would love to help with VIA-driver development,
but currently, I have other higher prioritized things to do, which promise 
better
effectiveness and more overall-impact, so I feel investing my time there just 
makes more
sense and is going to yield more useful, meaningful and relevant results.

Cheers!

There is some improvement visible regarding openchrome video-diver, 
particularly, there

is no xorg.conf necessary any more in order to make use of the VESA-driver, but 
obviously

X falls back to VESA automatically, which is positive in my opinion, so people 
will have

some workable graphics-output, even if openchrome-video-driver is not workable 
properly on

their hardware, without fiddling with Xorg-configuration.

See attached logfile [Xorg.0.log]

As far as I can tell, this is the essential part of the log, showing, why 
openchrome is
not workable yet:

.

..
.
.

It would be even nicer, guys, if openchrome worked properly on my hardware 
instead of
falling back to VESA. Now this would really be super-great, get it?

Hello again , 

I have just updated my notebook, which has intel-graphics and I can confirm,

that GNOME3 was not updated yet, and it probably will not be, while Jessie is 
stable.

The bug is definitely still there.

So from my point of view the two remaining possibilities are, that the LTS-team 
provides

fixed packages , when Jessie became oldstable and/or somebody who can, 
packports the

stable GNOME3-version from Stretch to oldstable Jessie.

Great if you know, how to fix this particular issue, but Debian wants to see 
patches,

don't they?

Greetings

A.

P.S: Probably people can work around this particular issue with gconf anyway, 
or by simply
re-using their old home-partitions, but I have e few similar minor bugs, that 
nobody
touches.

PDFTK also leaves the files unchanged, exactly as libreoffice does, another

could be qpdf:

Bug#840087: linked images ?

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


No, idea, what linked or embedded images might be in PDF, I guess, it's  rather 
the
latter.

I am simply using simple-scan and save a few pages directly as PDF.

But you are right of course, I can just as well use pdftk for re-compressing 
the stuff:

This might even make myself as a person a less mousy one, especially women would

Bug#840087: libreoffice-draw: does not compress PDFs in the latest version

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Hi, Rene,

the upsteam-discussions are generally often not very helpful in my opinion, if 
you are

not a programmer, it is pretty much like somebody is posting a sentence of 
natural

language for every code-change made. 

It's not helpful, if you don't read the source-code.

They could instead write the comments directly into the code and distribute 
both together,

then things would be much easier for human readers.

Greetings

A.

Yeah, anyway, the problem exists in Stretch, it has nothing to do with
stable-dependencies vs. testing-dependencies:

VM-configuration attached, also kernel-bootup messages [dmesg-output]

There is a message at bootup. saying that hardware-support for kvm is missing 
inside the
guest, so this would most probably require nested virtualisation, the other 
issue is,
that there is a 90 seconds grace-period at startup while systemd waits for
Network-Manager, which ist not really required inside a VM.

If I am getting things correctly, the backported version is identical with the 
one in
Stretch/testing, so the same bug would be there, it migrated there in fact from 
unstable
and if nobody complains or otherwise nobody feels responsible to react to the 
report, it
will inevitably migrate to stable.

Bug#840087: libreoffice-draw: does not compress PDFs in the latest version

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: libreoffice-draw
Version: 1:5.2.2~rc2-2~bpo8+1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

there appeared a new version of the LibreOffice suite from Backports today.
LibreOffice-Draw fails to compress multipage-PDFs, it just makes a copy of the 
original
document, regardless of the quality- and other settings.
I use this function quite frequently, so I can tell, the problem appeared 
_today_.
If there is nothing done about this, I will have to downgrade the software to 
the normal
stable version 4 again.

Bug#834821: e17: File-Manager crashes with Single-Click setting when opening folders

[Andreas Glaeser]

Package: e17
Version: 0.17.6-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

e17 had filemanager-problems for quite some time, I think they were fixed in 
the 32-bit
version first, also seems to work OK in the AMD64-version now, but the problem 
is still
there, when using the 'Single-Click'-setting for File-Manager, see attached 
screenshot. I
also failed to open a subfolder of /home/user/ for choosing a Wallpaper-image, 
the
system also crashed there.

Bug#819867: boot also fails with non-USB boot-partition

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Today I retried this with the current netinstall-image from 2016-05-02,
using the internal ATA-flash-memory of the PC as /boot/-partition, but it 
doesn't work
either, since GRUB cannot mount the filesystem-root.
It might be related to these upstream-bugs:

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?35937  

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?38366:

> # Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux 
> GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID="true" 
> # JPT: use uuid, label or partition 
> GRUB_USE_PARTIDTYPE="label" 

so it might actually be misconfiguration only.

Since your installation-report was from before the Jessie-release, the issue 
has probably

been fixed in the meantime.

If so, then please close the report-ticket yourself by sending e-mail to:

765552-d...@bugs.debian.org

giving a few explanatory words, why you think, it does not need to be kept open 
longer.

Also feel free to try out the current testing-branch of software.

Can you retry with the current stable release or with current debian-testing??

Possibly you need to set the BIOS to legacy mode, some UEFI-implementations are

It is quite illusionary in my opinion, when people think they can save lots of 
money, by

having old servers run literally forever, until they break and have to be 
thrown away.

The opposite is true, because of the poor energy-efficiency of the old 
hardware, the

energy-costs exceed the cost of buying something new, that's more or less up to 
date and

at least provides proper efficiency. In some IT-departments they probably think,

electricity-expenses are none of their business, but overall it is a waste of 
resources,

especially for systems with lots of uptime, nonetheless.

Here in Germany you can currently get (used) 64-bit thin-clients (featuring 
HD-audio),

p-rated 2100+ MHz, that use about 20 W of energy at about EUR 20,- (I am not 
talking

about a monthly fee here).

That's why it doesn't really make sense to keep servers from the Pentium-II-age 
up

and running. If a Nano-server is insufficient for your purposes and you need 
features

like RAID, you can still take a Micro-server, that is essentially built from

notebook-components.

32-bit Software is going to die out in the long term, i386-support was removed 
already

in recent Linux-kernels, i486 is the minimum now, you also find it in some 
embedded

devices so it's probably going to continue for a while.

Greetings 

Andreas

P.S. you could also file a report against the debian-reference package, say 
your proposal
is wishlist for instance.

Hello, there,

I forwarded your message to the respective bug-report.
In my opinion the workaround, which I don't fully understand to be honest, does 
not have
much relevance for the PC-platform, since most BIOSes do boot from USB 
nowadays, often
even from USB3, but it might be useful for ARM or other architectures, i.e. 
it's probably
easier to work around the non-bootable installer-image than bootstrapping 
manually or
building an image otherwise.
You can post your proposal to the debian-users mailing-list or to
debian-boot and point to the installation-report.

Greetings 

Andreas

Thanks for your attention to this matter.

I agree with you that there is no need to treat this as a program
bug.  However, the documentation could use some attention.

I don't know where else to send such a request, and the Debian installer
does ask for a report of difficulties.

So, to someone updating the installation documentation, I would say:
1) Mention that the ISO image might not boot from FRS.
2) This might be got around using the method I mention (citing
the section telling what's needed to boot.)
3) Explain that a symlink might be needed to /media if the ISO
image is in an unexpected place.
4) Add citation of 5.4.7 for those using an alternative to direct e-mail
in section A.4


Again, I don't minimize your work as a volunteer.  You are

Comments/Problems:

This problem was discussed already at the debian-boot mailing-list in this 
thread:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2016/03/msg00340.html
Today I told myself, it would be a good way of officially opening a ticket for 
this, to
report the installation inside KVM/virt-manager, now here it is.
Steve McIntire suggested, I debug this myself, but I think, that really the D-I 
team
needs to do something to fix this for everyone, so I include the verbose output 
of
lsinitramfs [initramfs.txt.gz] and dmesg [dmesg.txt.gz], more info to come, 
maybe.
I did another Stretch installation on a different device on Compact-Flash card 
in the
meantime, that also worked with BTRFS-root, it's actually for trying out LXC1.1

I filed some bugs already in the Debian BTS regarding the openchrome-driver 
with some
thin-clients of mine, this particular problem appears with a mobile 
thin-client, that
fails to show any graphics, only the external VGA-screen works, and I think the 
situation
is widely unchanged with the new driver-version, just it doesn't point to 
openchrome.org
anymore, it has a VM800 chipset:

Bug#814088: Be cautious about data-loss !!

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


This obviously has been a low-priority project, but I have the box basically up 
and
running now.

If you have a similar scenario as myself, with an external harddisk with data 
on it, that
you want to integrate into a RAID and use as network-storage, don't do it the 
way, I did
it, transferring the data over NFS and then trying to set up the RAID straight 
away.

I lost half of my data that way, because balancing the data over the two disks 
failed due
to read-errors, there were 300+ of them on the new internal SATA-disk, that had 
only 24
hours of operation-time yet. The extended long SMART selftest's result was 
that, the
disk-health is basically good, so actually the failure may be due to bad karma 
mainly and
carelessness.
So I zeroed out the whole drive with dd and tried again, now it seems to work 
well enough.
I set it up the same way and checked, the problem was not due to misaligned 
partitions,
which was not the case, although it's an advanced format disk with 4k blocks, 
cfdisk did
the partitioning job quite well, that was checked on afterwards with parted.

If you have data you cannot afford to lose, connect the external USB-disk 
directly to the
NAS-box and transfer the data manually on the terminal using SSH, not with the 
graphical
file-manager of your choice, say '$ cp -av .. ..' for instance.
Then balance the data on the internal drive in order to check for errors:
#  btrfs balance start -v /mnt/sata

If that goes well, you are most probably fine to add the external disk to the 
RAID and
re-balance it as RAID1:
#  btrfs device add -f /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sata/
#  btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid1 -mconvert=raid1 /mnt/sata/

When spreading out the existing data over the two devices is finished, you can 
start
populating the disk with other data over NFS, I did a reboot first.

One problem, which actually appeared chronologically first is the question about
permissions. I introduced a special group for network-storage on the NAS and 
wanted to
add users on the network, who are allowed to write on it to that same group 
with the same
GID, but that doesn't work over NFS. If you need something like it, you may 
have to deal
with NFS-ACLs and the package fs4-acl-tools on the clients:

> Package: nfs4-acl-tools  
> State: not installed
> Version: 0.3.3-2.1
> Priority: extra
> Section: admin
> Maintainer: Anibal Monsalve Salazar 
> Architecture: amd64
> Uncompressed Size: 104 k
> Depends: libattr1 (>= 1:2.4.46-8), libc6 (>= 2.14)
> Description: Commandline and GUI ACL utilities for the NFSv4 client
>  This package contains commandline and GUI ACL utilities for the Linux NFSv4 
> client.
> Homepage: http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/

But since I essentially have a single-user network and since NFS-ACLs are 
beyond LPIC-2
level, I simply used my primary UID and GID on the NAS and mapped root-access 
to the
network-storage group only, which works just fine.

Bug#738631: Some problems seem to get never solved

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Dear maintainers, 
I closed the issue in the first place in order to tell you, how
extremely disappointed I was about your behaviour, to consistently ignore me.
Now I changed my mind, I think the BTS should actually rather reflect, what's 
really going
on with the binaries, not some emotional considerations.
I am reopening the report, because I think, also small details _do_ matter. 
CentOS for
example released version 7.2, also including GNOME 3.14, and most likely they 
fixed this
issue in their distribution, it _really_ does have security-implications, when 
users
cannot lock their screen, when leaving the work-place, I mean it in a practical 
way, not
technically, of course they could also log out of their sessions, but it takes 
longer
and it is less convenient.
Another small detail is this:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781325

I am not using GNOME anymore on my main PC, also not on the secondary PC, but I 
am still
using it once per week on my notebook, so I know, the bugs are still there.

Besides this _very_ bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738631

The problems are, that GNOME does not work over x2go, not even in classic-mode, 
it
_does_not_work_at_all_ and GNOME3.14 fails to work with the FGLRX proprietary
RADEON-driver. I am not planning to stick with fglrx anyway, I just wanted to 
tell you
guys, though,

enjoy!

I tried to use the VESA-driver, putting [xorg.conf.xz] in place, it was not

Comments/Problems:

Today I tried to update this machine, which failed because of 
secur...@debian.org
blocking.
So I disabled security in apt/sources.list and updated anyway, it left me with a
non-workable system upon reboot, that did not allow any login because of the
constantly flashing screen it showed.
Then I tried about three times to reinstall Testing, which failed twice with 
BTRFS and
once on XFS filesystem.
The situation is basically the same as about one year ago, before the 
Jessie-freeze, when
GRUB was not workable and left the installed system unbootable, but this time 
there seems
to be some script involved called 'local-block', so I clearly will not report 
this as a
GRUB-bug.
On one hand it doesn't make much sense anyway to test the beta-graphics-driver 
from
VIA-linux-portalfor Ubuntu 15.04 on Stretch-testing, because the Ubuntu-version 
resembling
this, would rather be 15.10, which is not out yet, I think.
Nonetheless my system-upgrades should not be blocked by secur...@debian.org, 
because I
didn't commit any abuse or other violation of any sort.

I's not workable. I used Iceweasel's inspector instead and looked at the 
network-tab,
copied the file-URL from there and could download it with wget:

> wget

It works perfectly fine for me, the only problem there is the cryptic filename 
that needs
to be changed, it also didn't download slowly, but at 3+ MB/s.

I really don't know whether this is too difficult to do it by script, if so 
then please
remove Soundcloud from the list of supported sites.

Bug#801511: installation-report: no graphics on HP t5550 thin-client w/ stretch-testing

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.60
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

graphics are still not workable, see attached file [Xorg.0.log.xz].
I was using a DVI-to-VGA adapter here, because only my main screen is digital, 
the others
are VGA only.
I installed Jessie-stable for someone else on an IGEL-m300c thin-client, he 
said, he had
graphics there only with a DVI-VGA adapter, but he wanted digital output. In 
the end he
was quite happy with the VESA-graphics driver, it'S OK on some devices, when 
you don't
have special needs regarding performance. 
Concerning this I did some research and found the VIA-linux portal, it seems 
they offer
linux-drivers there for newer devices, also including source-code, it might 
work on this
one with VX900-chipset, I'll have to try that out.

Comments/Problems:

I did this installation only for testing-purposes, I want to try out the 
graphics-driver
from VIA. When that is done, I am going to install FreeBSD on it, that worked 
well enough
for me on HP t5540, so it should work on this one as well.
I hope FreeBSD and ZFS are able to couple an SATA-harddrive and a USB-hdd into 
one
RAID-device, because that's exactly the plan for building my own NAS-box 
without the
danger of data-loss, and retry it as CUPS-printserver.
When that is done, I am planning to do a 64-bit version of DEWP, I am waiting 
for the
backport of LXC 1.1 in fact, it would allow for an implementation, that is 
independent
from oldstable, if that doesn't come in time, maybe take the version from 
testing
directly??.

I was not asking for support regarding kernel-configuration, I guess nobody 
would.
It's pretty much like if you don't know how to configure the kernel-source, you 
clearly
have no need to build your own custom kernel.

I start wondering though, why I am constantly receiving negative replies from 
you,
because you have to give *some*explanation* on ticket-close?

It's not ridiculous at all, but, well _*negative*_.

I want to give you an expample now of how to formulate this in a positive way.

Thanks a lot, dear reporter, we appreciate you are donating some of your 
precious time in
order to improve our distribution, we will take the necessary steps to make 
proper use
of the information you supplied.

Or:

Sorry, dear reporter, this and that are the right places to report your problem.

Got it?? Be positive !

Package: linux-source-4.1
Version: 4.1.6-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

this is the follow-up report to:
 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=800154

I reconfigured and built from linux-source-4.1 now, but the situation actually 
seems to
be worse here, boot-process hangs very early, so I cannot even provide any 
dmesg-output,
it's not workable at all.

This is unrelated, but since I reported this:

786...@bugs.debian.org

I saw the download of the index-files from the backports-repository fail quite 
often.

DoS is a form of communication, but it's not positive, folks!

The Site is obviously down, showing the picture of a kid holding a message, not 
to hate
it, because it's muslim. That's why I changed the severity of this ticket to 
important.
In my opinion it is a clear sign of neglect, when the Webpage of the project is 
down, I
am not referring to that kid.
OK, acknowledged, Islam itself is not evil, but what does that weird message 
displayed
there have to do with Openchrome??
I hope some of the package-maintainers have the means to inform those in charge 
of the
project site, in order to set this straight again.

Comments/Problems:

I ordered a CF-to-IDE adapter and a 16GB CF-card from Hongkong, both arrived 
much sooner
than expected.
Now I fitted both into the mobile thinclient, which was tricky, because the 
drive-bay is
made for harddisks, which makes it difficult to fit the much smaller adapter 
with CF-card
in place. I didn't want to take apart the device, so I made my own tool for 
that from two
wood-sticks, an old CF-card, two rubber-rings and some adhesive tape, 
resembling tongs.
Using that it went quite well.
Installation was interrupted, because I was unaware, the client was running on 
batteries,
which ran out at some point. This caused more problems with installing 
task-xfce-desktop
and task-laptop, it would not work with tasksel anymore because of the 
interruption, only
with aptitude, then some dependency-troubles showed up, which were gone again 
upon system
reboot.
It' positive, that it's possible to go without the proprietary firmware now, 
even without
any non-free packages, but openchrome still does not work for me, as reported 
already
there:

Oh, well, 

I understand it's not Debian's problem, but my PC is an embedded system, so in 
principle

the embedded feature and SLOB should definitely work.

So should I take action myself in order to forward this upstream ??

Greetings

Bug#800154: linux-source: custom built embedded kernel with slob-allocation runs too unstable, boot-problems

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Package: linux-source
Version: 3.16+63
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have been using the custom aedl-kernel [config-3.16.7-ckt11-aedl.xz] on my 
dualcore
thin-client and tried to continue using it on my new PC, but it is not really 
workable.
It's behaving in an unstable way, for example when copying the contents of one 
compressed
BTRFS-partition to another one, it panicked. More often that, there are 
boot-problems,
especially upon a kernel-panic reboot hangs almost every time, it may be 
connected with
the LZO-compressed root-partition, but that normally works.
I rebuilt the kernel, leaving the
embedded-feature away and using slub instead [config-3.16.7-ckt11-adll.xz], it 
seems to be
doing well so far. I also compared that with the stock-kernel using 
phoronix-test-metrics,
but at least in the complex system test, there is not very much gain. This may 
be due to
the test being a non-interactive server-test mostly. Personally and 
subjectively I prefer
custom built AMD low-latency-kernels on the desktop, because, they make the 
system feel
more responsive.

Comments/Problems:

So far I am going in legacy-mode on this box, it is the replacement for the 
thin-client,
I used to use as my primary light PC, that is good enough 90% of the time for 
surfing,
mailing, reading, etc. The energy-consumption is good, actually between 13W 
(without
graphics) and 25 W at full load of all four cores, it may be a bit more with 
3D-graphics.
I have not tried the fglrx-driver yet, because I don't do any gaming and RADEON 
is good
enough for me. One problem I found with the hardware, was that the system fails 
to
wake up from suspend, so I turned that off. The behaviour I want is anyway, 
that the PC
shuts down, when the power-button is pressed, because of this I replaced GDM3 
with
lightdm.
The other problem I experienced was that the AMD-embedded-desktop kernel, I had 
in use
before is not properly working on this one. This means, it works in principle, 
but it is
not running stable enough and it does not boot reliably. So I switched to the
stock-kernel and attach the kernel-configuration in question
[config-3.16.7-ckt11-aedl.xz]. I think the problem is due to the 
embedded-feature and
slob-resource allocation, so I will leave that away, when I rebuild. My 
AMD-embedded
kernel was doing fine even on my AM2+ build-PC, see there:
[https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=782757], but it was not 
workable on my
larger PC with A4-fusion APU on FM2. Now I found it is half workable, so I 
guess it is a
problem with embedded-slob allocation and the fusion architecture. Most 
probably I should
also report this as a bug in the kernel-source. When I rebuild the kernel, I 
will simply
leave the embedded-feature away and go like AMD-desktop-low-latency, which 
should work on
all three PCs of mine. 
Because GDM3 does not match my needs, I am also going to have
another look at this bug: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781080

Maybe, I find the way to disable root-login with lightdm without completely 
disabling the
root-account.

Bug#794231: evolution: fails to make correct DSA signatures

Package: evolution
Version: 3.12.9~git20141130.241663-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have been using Evolution for some months, there also sowed up some problems, 
that I
reported. Recently I found, that the mail-signatures it makes are not correct 
and cannot
be verified by other clients. Evolution  itself is unaware of the problem, it 
doesn't
show problems with it's signatures, but when mailing out to 
Thunderbird/Enigmail for
example, the signature cannot be verified. I am usind a DSA/ElGamal-Key, that 
was
generated by seahorse. That is why this is not merely a wishlist-item, like 
'DSA-support
missing for signing mail-messages', but in fact this is a feature that needs to 
be there,
because seahorse is part of the GNOME-desktop as well as Evolution, and it is 
the
default tool for generating GnuPG-keys, when not doing it manually on the 
terminal.

Comments/Problems:

It seems the openchrome graphics-driver from VIA is defective by default, I 
have not met
any device in the recent time, where it works. I will report this separately
against the openchrome-video-driver. I think the best solution for this is 
currently, not
to worry, or get upset, or grow grey hair, waiting for a fix, but instead use 
these boxes
as servers.
I set up the debian-desktop and mate-desktop tasks here for testing purposes.

Bug#788340: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome: No graphics with P4M900/VN896/CN896 Chipset on IGEL H700C thin-client

Package: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
Version: 1:0.3.3-1+b2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have reported this as an installation report:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=788337
For the openchrome-driver it's a normal issue. I tried to set the 
kernel-boot-options
'video=LVDS-0:d' and 'video=LVDS-1:d', but from my experience so far with the 
VIA-driver
I can tell, it neither takes any boot-options from the kernel, nor is it 
configurable
properly from xorg.conf.
VESA would be a workaround, but headless is preferable in my opinion.

Bug#786872: It's possible to use the VESA graphics-driver

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


First I tried to set up fbdev, but it did not work out for me, then I removed 
the
openchrome-driver using apt-get and generated a new X-configuration:

# init 1
# cd /etc/X11
# X -configure
# cp /root/xorg.conf.new ./xorg.conf

That's all, graphics work in VESA-mode, X took a bit long to start up, also 
switching to
virtual terminals and back to the X-screen i a bit slow, but it's a feasible 
workaround.
Re-install task-desktop and xserver-xorg-video-all.

Thus downgrading this issue to minor.

When booting up oldstable-live, there is some output on the screen at least.
But it seems to be the wrong display-resolution or graphics-mode.

Now with Jessie, I tried to connect an external VGA-monitor and this actually 
works.
During the boot-process both displays were mirrored, showing the same things,

LVDS-screen looks
pretty much like what I saw on oldstable, just garbled rubbish.

Comments/Problems:

The installation was really tricky this time, brecause I tried to install on the
32-GB-Sandisk stick first (with blue LED), which was not workable. The Stick, 
as mentioned
already earlier, also does not boot up any system on FSC Futro S500/S550, but 
works with
HP-devices.
I even had the USB-key replaced against a new device at the shop I got it from, 
but it
has clearly not been defective, but it is a general problem with 
SanDisk-Ultra-USB3, 32
GB G2.
Then installation worked out on an older slower SD-card, it turned out, the 
USB-ports are
USB 1.1 only, so you need some patience.
The PCMCIA-port even features something called the VIA-boot-agent, but it does 
not work
for me with my PCMCI-CF adapter-card. The Installer also does not show the 
CF-card in the
PCMCIA-cardreader, but once a minimal system is set up, the CF-storage is there.
So one would probably rather use a CF-IDE adaptor and have a CF-card installed 
as an IDE-device
in order to install on this directly and boot from it directly, instead of
working around the non-bootable PCMCIA-cardreader with a separate 
boot-partition on USB1.
Upon setting up a basic system, it is necessary to enable the non-free archive, 
because
the ralink-WLAN-firmware will throw a non-recoverable error upon 
desktop-install, if
missing. This may be a problem with network-manager.
Last but not least, there was no graphics-output, I report that separately 
against
xserver-xorg-openchrome.
Apart from the issues reported this is the most cheap-shot notebook you have 
ever met, and
all lovable at a price of about EUR 10,- (without power-supply).

Bug#785597: lxc: fails to create or start unprivileged containers as user

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: lxc
Version: 1:1.0.6-6
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

I was trying to make unprivileged user-containers, but failed. I also tried to 
make a
container usind 'sudo', then moving it into the home-directory of the user and 
changing
ownership and group, but this did not work out either, see below. Logfiles are 
attached.
There is a report saying, lxc version 1.1 should be backported to Jessie, but 
it is not
there yet.
Upon trying to start the container, I made with 'sudo', there is a problem with 
the
ssh-session, i need to log out and log in again, because it does not show, what 
I type
anymore.
I say it's a minor issue, because I can use a root-containers instead, which 
works well
enough. Very high security is not really necessary for my application case.

Bug#785500: evolution: regularly cancels sending messages

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: evolution
Version: 3.12.9~git20141130.241663-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Since a few days, there are problems sending mail-messages from the default 
account.
Evoltion displays a (ruled out) line saying 'Sending message (cancelled)'.
It is possible to send from the secodary fremail-account, that is not always 
activated,
but it should be the user's choice, from which account to send mail, not 
Evolution's.
Possibly this is related to 'Mail Preferences'/'Junk':'[x] include remote Tests 
[This
will make SpamAssassin more reliable, but slower.]' I am returning to use 
Icedove because
of this.
I guess the issue will not be fixed, unless I forward it upstream.
I also want o say now, that I am quite disappointed already, that the 
GNOME-maintainers
don't have time to fix bugs, even if the distribution is released as stable, 
some remain
open. I reported those soon enough.

Bug#783949: making good progress

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Today I built a kernel-image for this box, it is doing well, as far as I can 
tell.
Some research was necessary to find out, how o cross-compile for i386 on AMD64.
This is how I did it:

 $ make ARCH=i686-PAE -j6 deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-es-via-c7

doing this prior to the build:

 # dpkg --add-architecture i386
 # apt-get update  apt-get install ia32-libs gcc-multilib
[configure the kernel-source]

My configuration-file is attached [config-3.16.7-ckt9-es-via-c7.xz]

The ARCH-variable only determinates the generated package-names. I used 
'ARCH=i386'
there, but in strict terms this is not correct. First I had a 
kernel-configuration based
on the AMD64-stock-kernel, which resulted in a non-PAE-kernel, as dmesg told me 
the
nx-bit was not workable due to that.
At the second attempt taking the i686-PAE-stock-kernel, made a good 
kernel-image, see
[dmsg.cstm.txt.xz].

The server works well as apt-cacher already, the next step will be to make 
unprivileged
containers as normal user for the proxies.

I tried setting up a second node with munin-async. It is not workable.
I re-checked permissions and configurations both on the host and on the server, 
it all
seems to be correct. I didn't generate a new key for the second node, but used 
the
existing one instead, this worked as user 'munin':
 ssh munin-as...@example.net
So normally the second  node should be visible in the web-interface, but it 
isn't.
I include the main configuration-files, xz-xompressed.
I guess when I disable async-mode for the second node, it should work normally 
in

First I found, that the netmask was wrong in munin-node.conf this has to be /32 
not /24.
Then I thought, it might be due to the network-configuration, because of the
network-bridge, but it was not, the second remote host still does not show up.

Comments/Problems:

I chose XFS here, because this is a 32-bit device and XFS is more mature and 
may also
perform better on weak hardware.
Setting up a thinclient as printserver is pretty trivial, when you have done it 
once,
512MB RAM are enough for that. I am going to upgrade RAM to 1G though, my 
concept for
this box is printserver and homeserver. It is OK to have the 
printserver-functionality
on the main system, because it is only accessible from the LAN and has no 
connection to
the outside world.
Other services, that access the internet, will be separated in LXC-containers, 
there
will be an apt-cacher and one or two privoxy-squid chains.
One could have proxies with different configurations, say one container with a 
normal
surf-proxy and another privoxy instance, that routes the traffic through TOR.
Before I start doing that, I am going to build an embedded-server 
kernel-package for the
box and try out munin and munin-async.

Bug#782333: Server-Kernel built for VIA-Nano thin-client

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


I am using this box currently as a bittorrent-seeder with qbittorrent-nox.
The web-interface is nice. Today I built an embedded-server kernel for it. It 
seems to be
doing quite well so far, but there were problems with the Sandisk-Ultra-USB3 
(32GB)
storage-stick, I am using there. It cannot handle all compressed filesystems,
installation of PC-BSD (with LZ4-compressed ZFS-root) on it failed. After that 
the stick
seemed to be defective, but it resumed work upon completely zeroing it.
Today there was downtime, I spent much of the day, moving seeded files around,
defragmenting and balancing, now it is running again, and the wattage is 
surprisingly
low: 8W, although the files, it is distributing need to be decompressed 
permanently,
because they are on LZO-BTRFS.
The maximum wattage, I saw, was at 14W.
I have done some online-research and found VIA-nano devices are rare, there 
seem to be
quadcores in mini-ITX format, but this configuration is without SMP.
With the stock-kernel dmesg looked like this:

Comments/Problems:

I wanted to celebrate the CPU-upgrade of my secondary build-PC by submitting 
this report.
It is Phenom II x3 710 now, but it cost me a half day to upgrade the BIOS.
It is running well now, with just below 80W of power-consumption, when idle, 
like before
and it draws about 130W when fully loaded. I installed on a USB-Flashdrive with 
a
separate /boot/-partition on the harddisk, in order to be able to put the 
USB-key into a
USB3-port upon installation. But unfortunately my USB3-controller card broke, 
it was very
low-cost and turned out o have dummy-fuses only, so I will have to get a new 
card now,
before actually trying out USB3-speed.
There is only the base-system so far and everything required to build a 
kernel-package.
I am also going to try it out as a remote-desktop server.
I tried to use cpufreqd and cpufrequtils in order to limit the maximum 
CPU-frequency
to 80%, but I don't quite remember, how to do this, I will have to read the 
documentation
first, or maybe it didn't work out because of hardware-incompatibility.
In case of problems, I'll file a separate report about this.

It seems to do quite well so far.

Installation itself was quite quick, but defragmenting/recompressing everything 
takes
some time, it is probably not recommended to do it this way.

I could not reproduce it on my notebook with Intel-graphics and with the 32-bit

The graphics-glitch looks similar to the one I saw there:

Bug#781643: gdm3: unusable - shows garbled login-screen since recently

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.14.1-6
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

because of security-concerns about lightdm
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781080
 I wanted to switch back to GDM3, but found it unusable because of a garbled 
login-screen
I don't know if the problem appears with RADEON-graphics only, because I don't 
have
anything else on my stationary PCs.
KDM showed occasional problems, but continues o work for me.
Looking at open issues of GDM, I found one, that is almost ten years old and 
which should
be closed most probably:

Bug#781668: e17: filemanager does not delete any files

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: e17
Version: 0.17.6-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

the e17-filemanager does not delete any files, it does not matter whether the
context-menu (right-mouse-button) is used or the delete-key on the keyboard, or
shift-delete. This applies both to single files and folders.
There seems to be something going on, but  in the end the items are unchanged.
So users have to use a terminal-emulator to do that, or use a different 
file-manager.

Today there were news, that the Jessie-release is going to be at the end of 
April.
I really do wonder, if the maintainers all have fixes in their drawers for the 
issues,
that are still open. It seems there are quite some left. Maybe it is selective 
perception
from my side, because I own too many bugs, but there is severe doubt, all of 
those, which
are at least normal in severity will be done before the release happens.

This very bug for example would be a normal bug, but because the e17-filemanager
does not come in a separate package, it is minor only, so it cannot block the 
release,
it should be fixed though.

Bug#691456: current bug-status

The situation with this problem is currently, that file-management works, when 
choosing
'Run' on the desktop for the home-folder, or 'Open' for other folders from the
context-menu, i.e. right-mouse-button menu.

But clicking on the items directly still provokes an EFL-crash.

Bug#781080: lightdm: allows login as root by default

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: lightdm
Version: 1.10.3-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

until today I had not even tried this, when I typed 'root' and the password 
into the
lightdm-mask instead of into VT-4-login.

I was quite surprised, that lightdm allows root-login, I also did not find, 
where to
switch this off in the text-configuration.

I have tried some things about X-login, but a root-session from lightdm is 
clearly not
what I wanted.

In my opinion this is *INSECURE*, if I need graphical root-access, then I start 
thunar
for instance from the terminal, saying 'sudo thunar', but having a completely
root-Xsession is most probably not recommended at all.

Please revert this to normal and add a configuration-option to enable it, if 
hackers need
the it in order to test X-security.  

Maybe this is related to systemd.

I set the file-manager to open items with a single click, crashes do not only 
appear on

the desktop, but also in the home-folder for instance.

But apart from this, my impression is good, one can use e17 in order to surf 
the web,

etc., just not for file-management.

 I believe it's the ftp teams duty / joy to decide this name and would like to

Bug#780122: grub-pc: grub-set-default does not work

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: grub-pc
Version: 2.02~beta2-21
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I report this from my kernel-build-PC.
The problem there was, that not the last and latest kernel was first in the 
grub menu,
but another and there was a new version of .
So I tried to change the default entry, first directly in /etc/default/grub, 
then putting
'Default=saved' there [see attachment] and using grub-set-default.
Like this:
 'gnulinux-3.16.7-ckt4ckead-advanced-3b86c2cb-6c1a-4388-ab16-2765e6176edf'
or this:
   grub-set-default 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.16.7-ckt4ckead'
but it is not workable, there is always entry nr. 0 started.
I include my grub-file
from /etc/default/ and /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
hope it helps.
For headless systems it is especially bad, when you have to connect a monitor 
to them in
order to work around this problem and remove older, unwanted kernel-versions, 
so I say
this is a normal bug, not minor, there is also core-functionality of the 
package affected.

Package: libwww-youtube-download-perl
Version: 0.56-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

say I want to download, that video of motherfucking LADY GAGA:

 andrew@s5:~$ youtube-download https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohs0a-QnFF4
 garbage after JSON object, at character offset 33125 (before ;ytplayer.load 
 = fun...)
 at /usr/share/perl5/WWW/YouTube/Download.pm line 226. andrew@s5:~$ 

It does not work, it is most probably due to Youtube's transition from Flash 
videos to
HTML5.
In my opinion, if it is not easy to fix the problem, it is safer to leave the 
package out
of Jessie, when it is going to be released.
It does not make sense to keep it in, when it is not workable anymore, because 
of changes
to that webservice, which will not be rolled back again.

The following 40_custom in /etc/grub.d/ fixed the issue for me:

 #!/bin/sh
 exec tail -n +3 $0
 # This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.  Simply type the
 # menu entries you want to add after this comment.  Be careful not to change
 # the 'exec tail' line above.
 menuentry D-Testing-32 (on /dev/mmcblk0p1) custom {
   set root='(hd0,msdos3)'
   linux /vmlinuz-3.16-3-686-pae root=/dev/mmcblk0p1
   initrd /initrd.img-3.16-3-686-pae 
 }

I am quite pleased with this actually, this is enough success for me today.

As far as I understand things, the first set-root actually names the 
/boot/-partition to
load the kernel and initrd from. It is not identical with the other root:
root=/dev/mmcblk0p1, which seems to name the filesystem-root that is used upon 
loading
the kernel.
All I need to do now is make the custom entry the default to boot first
in /etc/default/grub and/or using grub-set-default.
I am going to remove other, non-workable entries pointing at mmcblk0p1 by 
removing
the content of /boot/ on the SD-card, also see attachments.
I hope it will continue working upon the next kernel-update without manual 
interference.
Probably it is worth, having another look at the scripts in /etc/grub.d/

Bug#779100: Making the SD-card boot in the internal cardreader is not trivial

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Today I tried this out, making a /boot/ partition on the harddisk and changing 
/etc/fstab
accordingly. It is workable while the card remains in the 
expresscard-cardreader, but not
workable, when it is inserted in the internal mmcblk-cardreader.
Running update-grub on the stable system on the harddisk is not sufficient to 
make things
work:

There is this recipe for Arch-Linux:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=97207

but I don't think, I need that stuff about manually changing the initrd, 
because I am
using stock-kernels and generic initrds with all drivers included.

Maybe it is only a matter of chrooting prior to doing update-grub, possible 
something
like this does the trick:

 3) Setup a working grub.cfg
 Since it is recommended to not edit grub.cfg directly in Grub2 I just added 
 the
 following entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom
 
 menuentry Arch (on /dev/mmcblk0p1) custom {
 set root='(hd0,5)'
 linux /boot/vmlinuz26-custom root=/dev/mmcblk0p1
 initrd /boot/kernel26-custom.img
 }

It should work anyway, when installing newly. I remember, I had similar 
problems, when
trying to move an exiting system onto an md-raid, most probably I am not 
familiar enough
with grub2 yet.

Comments/Problems:

The notebook is my replacement for the old T43-thinkpad. 
First USB-boot was disabled by default, it worked upon activating the 
boot-option
'USB-legacy emulation' in the BIOS. Upon that I could also boot from the 
SD-card, I had in
use before on the old machine using the express-card cardreader.
But additionally to the old testing-32-bit system, I also installed 
Wheezy-stable for
AMD64 on the internal harddisk, which worked perfectly fine, also including 
backports.
Choosing BTRFS as the filesystem and activating LZO-compression, but in spite 
of it
notebook-harddisks are not as fast as flash-memory and the system feels less 
fluent on
it than on flashdrives.
The internal cardreader is not bootable, because it requires the mmcblk-driver, 
so grub
says, the kernel needs to be loaded first. I am going to try, putting the 
content
of /boot/ from the SD-card onto a separate /boot/ partition on the internal 
harddisk,
which should work. This would be preferable, because SD-cards practically 
disappear in the
internal cardreader, just below the touchpad, but protrude a bit from the
expresscard-cardreader on the right side, which is impractical, when on the 
move, because
one always needs to be careful and mind, that the protruding flashcard does not
get damaged.

Hi, Ben,

actually I cannot tell, if it also happens with the stock kernel, because I 
have always

been using my custom kernel-configuration.

The hang also appears very rarely and I have not seen it on any other hardware 
yet.

There were no other changes made to the kernel, because I don't read any 
sourcecode so
far.

But I plan to build a custom kernel, that enables CPU-frequency-scaling, maybe 
try

initrd-ACPI-override first.

I need to identify first which part of ACPI actually does the 
frequency-scaling. 

ACPI-information to extract this from was posted there:

This is the image, I tried today:

On the one hand the upgrade-path from stable needs some testing, too, and I 
tried that

already and it worked. On the other hand at the point, when the distribution 
gets the

RC-status and it is not installable by normal means, it's an important problem 
in my

opinion. So I upgrade the severity accordingly.

Some people probably just want to install the distribution, when it does not 
boot up upon

that, they won't give the system any testing- and evaluation-time.

I found now, that it is actually gtk3-engines-xfce's fault.

Bug#775168: gedit: application-window is not resizable on XFCE-desktop

[Andreas Glaeser]

Package: gedit

Dear Maintainer,

Normally I would use GNOME, but I don't because of these issues:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=773627
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738631

So I fell back to XFCE and found that the gedit-window is not resizable on the
XFCE-desktop, while there is no problem with that on GNOME.
You are right, normally one
would use mousepad on XFCE, but I have gtk3-engines-xfce installed:

Bug#774830: simple-scan: pixma 04A9173B 'Access to resource has been denied' over remote desktop

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Package: simple-scan
Version: 3.4.2-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

simple-scan does not work over x2go-remote-desktop session.
See there: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=761398

It is most probably a problem with user-rights and and with the sane-backend.
When trying to scan, it looks like this on the terminal:

andreas@md-ho:~$ simple-scan
p11-kit: invalid config filename, will be ignored in the
future: /etc/pkcs11/modules/gnome-keyring-module

** (simple-scan:23088): WARNING **: scanner.vala:801: Unable to get open 
device: Access
to resource has been denied

xsane says: 'Failed to open device 'pixma:04A9172B': Access to resource has 
been dnied.

But scanning works, when there is a local session running on the machine (i.e. 
the
remote-desktop server) from the same user.

Normally this is no problem at all for thin-clients, because they do not have a 
scanner
connected to the desktop-server. But in my case it is a problem. I also do 
acknowledge
that not many people do have this problem, so it is severity 3 only.

Please let me know, if I should rather report this against the sane-backend.

I also report this to x2go.

Bug#773627: gvfs-automount makes devices invisible to fdisk

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Package: gvfs
Version: 1.22.2-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

drag-and-drop used to be not workable from gvfs-automounted usb-media, both 
with GNOME
and Cinnamon. XFCE-desktop does not show such strange behaviour. This is fixed 
already
again, but the problem remains, that fdisk does not see storage-devices, that 
were
automounted. When you decide, not to automount them, they are not visible 
either. It's a
problem.

When dragging files from automounted media into a terminal-window, they look 
like this:

Bug#761398: This is not workable as described in the Debian-Administratior's Handbook on Jessie/testing

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Today I tried the recipe described there on another system:

http://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/sect.remote-login.html
[see bottom of the page]

This is not workable on Jessie/testing, both as client and as vnc-host.

I set up GNU-inetd:
i   inetutils-inetd   - internet super server

Then edited /etc/lightdm.conf and added that line to /etc/inetd.conf

These options did not set this straight either:
 xserver-allow-tcp = True #if TCP/IP connections are allowed to this X server
 xdmcp-manager = XDMCP #manager to connect to (implies xserver-allow-tcp=true)

additionally to:

 [XDMCPServer]
 enabled=true
 port=177

Result:
 andrew@s5:~$ xtightvncviewer remserv:50

Bug#761398: VNC with XDMCP also works with xinetd

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Now I tried this recipe:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-multiuserloginsvnc/index.html
[see below]

It works fine for me with tightvncserver, but I had to restart the remote 
server once in
order to be able to log in to it with xtightvncviewer.
This is probably better for people who don't want to pull in external packages 
to their
systems in order to make remote connections.

There is another example with inetd instead of xinetd, which I haven't tried 
yet, but it
should probably also work:

http://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/sect.remote-login.html

Also when inside your own LAN, you are probably behind a firewall and you don't 
need to
use ssh.

Bug#769502: firmware-linux-nonfree is the culprit

[Andreas Glaeser]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Trying this out in a bit more detail, it showed, that the identical problem 
exists with
Wheezy and 32-bit architecture, it is simply a matter of removing the 
proprietary
radeon-firmware in firmware-linux-nonfree, so everything works without 
modesetting and
hardware graphics-accelleration.
Personally I do not especially like the fallback-mode of GNOME 3.4.

This does not necessarily mean, that the firmware is buggy, it may as well be 
the
radeon-driver itself.
