Bug#969188: Upstream informed of RFP

2020-09-02 Thread Boris BARBOUR


I mentioned this RFP to the Duplicati issues just to centralise the
information. At this stage the project doesn't have the resources to
complete the packaging.

Bug#969188: RFP: duplicati -- user-friendly remote, encrypted, incremental backups; capable GUI via built-in local server

2020-08-28 Thread Boris BARBOUR
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: duplicati
  Version : 2.0
  Upstream Author : Kenneth Skovhede , Rene Stach

* URL : http://www.duplicati.com/
* License : LGPL-2.1
  Programming Lang: C#
  Description : user-friendly remote, encrypted, incremental
backups; capable GUI via built-in local server

I have looked at most of the backup packages in Debian and duplicati has
a better combination ot features and ease-of-use, at least for personal
use. It can perform remote, encrypted, incremental backups over several
transports. It has a very capable GUI with well-designed configuration
options. It makes a pragmatic, simplifying default choice of largely
trusting the user's machine but not the remote host.

The built-in web server for configuration and administration is very
convenient (and excellent for remote administration using port forwarding).

A debian package exists and requires little more than automated
installation of systemd configuration.



Bug#682426: #682426 - related ghostscript changelog?

2014-05-12 Thread Boris Barbour

http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/current/News.htm

Version 9.14 (2014-03-26)

...

Ghostscript now reduces memory usage when processing PDF files that use 
transparency and output is to display devices such as Windows display or x11 
(i.e. devices that are strictly full framebuffer devices), and to high level 
vector devices that cannot reproduce the PDF transparency model, such as the 
ps2write device or pdfwrite when 'flattening' to PDF 1.3 or earlier (-
dCompatibilityLevel=1.3). This uses banding (clist) files to render the 
transparent areas in bands to reduce memory use, and unlike the existing page 
level banding, this is hidden from the target device.

Bug#692984: Expected upload of sogo-connector

2014-04-30 Thread Boris Barbour
I'm interested in obtaining the sogo-connector, as this seems to be the 
only way to sync contacts with owncloud. I'd prefer to get it through 
the debian repositories. The messages above suggest that it could be (or 
has been) uploaded, which is good news. When might we expect it to appear?

Bug#746036: iceowl-extension: Event not shown when calendar view refreshed.

2014-04-27 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: iceowl-extension
Version: 24.4.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Using the default local calendar (home), I create an event and save it. It is 
shown in the Week view. If I switch 
tabs, synchronise, switch views, and the return to the view, it has 
disappeared. It seems that any refresh of the 
view causes the event to disappear. If I select it from the events list above 
the view and resave it, the event 
reappears until the next refresh. The event remains visible in the Multiweek 
view, but shows the disappearing 
behaviour in Day, Week and Month views.

happen! But if it doesn't recur, I guess this can be ignored. Apologies

There is a very similar backtrace attached to a bug report on the Ubuntu

in particular comment #5 and

For what it's worth, that reporter also uses intel drivers.

Bug#563748: installation-reports: Provide script to update resume and uswsusp.conf files?

2013-07-29 Thread Boris Barbour

Thanks for looking at this old bug. Yes, fine by me to close the bug. Perhaps 
my main problem as an inexperienced user was just discovering which package 
should generate the files (i.e. it was less obvious for /etc/initramfs-
tools/conf.d/resume). Maybe this discussion will help others in the same 
situation.

 Quoting Boris Barbour (boris.barb...@ens.fr):
  On migrating my long-running system to a new disk (by cp), I discovered
  that /etc/uswsusp.conf and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume then
  contained stale information regarding the partition to resume from.
  apt-file reports no package as responsible for these files; they appear
  to have been written out by the installer. It might be useful to
  provide a small script to update these files (update-resume-info?).
  Changes in the way devices are represented or the configuration of
  other disks in the computer may also be a scenarios where such an
  updater would prove useful.
 
 I doubt this should be in the scope of the installer. As you
 mentioned, the job was done properly during the initial install. I
 doubt, by the way, that this initial setting of the resume partition
 was done by D-I itself. It happened during the installation of the
 uswsusp package.
 
 What you want is probably something that belongs to that one
 package. It's indeed probably enough to just dpkg-reconfigure
 uswsusp.
 
 Hi Boris, Christian,
 
 The files /etc/uswsusp.conf and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume are
 conffiles, but these files are different in every host, so we shouldn't
 include them as conffiles. See [1] and [2]. For this reason you cannot
 find them using 'apt-file' or 'dpkg -S'. IMO, the current configuration
 (no automatic conffile) is right.
 
 When you move your filesystems, some things could change. For example, the
 /etc/fstab could be different. If you change the machine, the hardware
 could be different and some drivers (pe. video) should be changed. In
 those cases, you edit the fstab file and update your X11 package. Why
 should be different with uswsusp? uswsusp doesn't have any bug, simply
 your filesystems are different and you should reconfigure it.
 'dpkg-reconfigure uswsusp' do it.
 
 IMO, nothing is wrong, your script update-resume-info is
 dpkg-reconfigure uswsusp and probably this bug should be closed.
 
 Please, tell us if you agree with closing this bug.
 
 Best regards,
 kix.

Thanks for the quick reply and explanation.

I've now had time to examine a working system. I can't find anything under

Bug#702474: krunner crashes on login

2013-03-07 Thread Boris Barbour

Further investigation suggests that the locking action should involve krunner. 
krunner isn't running. Indeed it crashes upon log in. Probably worth fixing 
that first...

The backtrace is probably not useful (I include in below anyway). The crash 
handler suggests I install debugging symbols for 

/usr/bin/krunner
/usr/lib/kde4/libkdeinit/libkdeinit4_krunner.so

but as far as I can see, they _are_ already installed

Bug#702474: dbus: Screensaver service seems to be absent.

2013-03-06 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: dbus
Version: 1.7.0-1
Severity: normal

I'm not sure I'm reporting this against the right package (apologies).

After a recent upgrade (and after testing the very latest dbus suggested by 
reportbug),
I can no longer lock my kde session (in particular, using the Lock/Logout 
widget). 
Invoking

qdbus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /ScreenSaver Lock

tells me

Service 'org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver' does not exist.

Indeed, I can't seem to find any screensaver.service in 
/usr/share/dbus-1/services 
Should there be one?

In contrast

/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kscreenlocker --forcelock

works just fine.

Bug#691064: linux-image-3.5-trunk-amd64: Blank screen between earliest boot messages and X.

2012-10-20 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: src:linux
Version: 3.5.2-1~experimental.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

When booting 3.5-trunk-amd64 and 3.1.0-1-amd64 but not 3.0.0-1-amd64 the boot 
messages disappear early on 
(at switch to graphics console?), roughly after udev gets started. There is 
just a blank screen until X
starts, after which everything works. The timing and problem seem rather like 
#681743, but adjusting the 
brightness controls don't make any boot messages appear for me.

Bug#605210: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64: cdrom stops working

2012-02-07 Thread Boris Barbour

 Was this a regression?

I tested this by booting off a couple of live cds of debian 5.09 (it must have 
worked back then) and 6.03. The live cds work on another computer, but didn't 
get much beyond the boot menu here. A newer kernel (3.2) was also no help.

It now seems most likely that the drive itself is broken (and that I have lots 
of broken drives). If a new drive works I won't be chasing this further. Sorry 
for the noise.

Best regards,

Boris

Bug#658778: Suspend from X session hangs Asus laptop.

2012-02-06 Thread Boris Barbour
Thanks for the quick reply, Jonathan.

 Is this a regression?

Not really (the machine is new). I tried older debian 5.09 and 6.03 live cds. 
With 6.03 suspending from a session worked under some conditions (lid) but not 
all (menu).

 Does suspend-to-disk
 (triggered with
 
   echo disk /sys/power/state

This doesn't work.

 ) work?  If you have time to follow the instructions from
 basic-pm-debugging.txt[1] to narrow down the cause, that would be very
 useful.

Thanks for the pointer! For some reason I didn't find it while searching 
around (we beginners don't know to search for pm- instead of suspend). 
Maybe a link could be added on the debian wiki at 
http://wiki.debian.org/Suspend ? The shutdown method described in the 
document seems to work. But it is a bit clunky and it wasn't immediately 
obvious how to set this option permanently or whether it even applies to 
suspend to RAM (more for the wiki...)

In the meantime I found the following site 

http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-
working-bug

and shamelessly copy-pasted the suggested script. It works pretty well - the 
only obvious problem at the moment is that waking from sleep requires a press 
of the power button (lid-opening doesn't suffice). But at least there is no 
freeze with data loss and reboot. Huge progress.

The working shutdown method suggests a bios issue and the copied script 
indicates a usb problem. Follow up might therefore look at the usb settings in 
the bios and investigate a bios upgrade (the changelog mumbles something about 
usb).

The comments on the web site suggest that the solution has helped a lot of 
people and with different machines.

Thanks and best wishes,

Boris

Bug#605210: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64: cdrom stops working

2010-11-27 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-27
Severity: important


If a cdrom is inserted, things work for a short while. I can for instance read 
one or two

Typical messages are:

(Then quite a few more of these. They continue after the cd has been reomved.)

I have tried another drive and get the same errors, so I don't think the 
problem is 
related to the drive itself. A harddisk is attached to the same controller, 
making 
a controller error a little less likely.

The problem has been around for a while. Less than a year, but certainly for 
several 
kernel versions.

Bug#595148: xserver-xorg: xorg freeze with 100% CPU, possibly VT switch or resume related.

 you may want to give a try to 2:2.12.0+legacy1-1.

I have tried it and I think the problem has disappeared. At least, it hasn't 
recurred in a few days, while before I would get a freeze daily at least.

Thanks

Bug#595148: xserver-xorg: xorg freeze with 100% CPU, possibly VT switch or resume related.

2010-09-01 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.5+6
Severity: important


I am writing this from a machine on which cpu usage by xorg is stuck at 100%. 
This happens quite often, 
but never during continuous single-user use, so I think it is triggered by VT 
switching or possibly
upon resuming. The symptom is either the monitor displays an out of range 
error or the screen is frozen, 
with only the mouse moving - impossible to click on anything, switch VT etc. I 
can however ssh into the machine
and thus see that xorg is occupying one cpu totally. Possibly related to 
#573994, #574989, #581223.

Bug#571289: SOLVED: Re: Bug#571289: xorg: X gives black screen and pointer only with 2.6.32 kernel

2010-02-25 Thread Boris Barbour
Hi,

 At least revision -8 (linux-image-2.6.32-2-*) would help, revision -9
 (linux-image-2.6.32-3-*) is going to be available shortly (currently
 in NEW). In the meanwhile, passing i915.powersave=0 through your
 kernel command line might help.

I had overlooked the availablity of the -2 version of that kernel. I have 
installed it and 3d acceleration is back

$ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965G GEM 20090712 2009Q2 RC3

Thank you.

I confused the two bugs (#571273 and #571289) in reporting success. 

In any case, with the linux-image-2.6.32-2-amd64 kernel X now starts

It appears to be because it has fallen back on to software rendering:

$ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

And in turn this appears to be some problem with dri/drm (I'm out of my depth 
here).

(I'll append the full log below).

The problem arises with the xorg.conf that I'll also append below or with none.

I can't test a newer stock kernel (2.6.32) because I get a blank screen
when X tries to start (should post another bug report).

Any guidance for debugging this or working around it appreciated.

Bug#571273: xorg: No 3d acceleration because Failed to open DRM device

2010-02-24 Thread Boris Barbour

Thanks for your instantaneous reply, Brice.

 Are drm and i915 kernel modules loaded ?

Yes:

$ lsmod | grep i915
i915  168328  0
drm   172512  1 i915
video  21884  1 i915

drm   172512  1 i915
i2c_core   25424  5 i915,drm,intelfb,i2c_algo_bit,i2c_i801

 You want to use 2.6.32 anyway...

OK - I'll file a separate bug report concerning that Xorg/kernel combination 
shortly...

Best regards,

Boris

Bug#571289: xorg: X gives black screen and pointer only with 2.6.32 kernel

2010-02-24 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.5+3
Severity: important


Booting with the stock linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 kernel can only
start X as far as providing a black screen and a pointer. Neither kdm dialog
nor its background image are visible. After a few switches to and from a
totally black screen, I just get a VGA cursor.

The system log contains quite a few messages of the following sort:
[drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung
The X log also contains errors.

Ill attach the Xorg.0.log, dmesg and lspci to a second email.

Note that the problem arose when using no xorg.conf file.

Best regards,

Boris

Bug#563748: installation-reports: Provide script to update resume and uswsusp.conf files?

2010-01-04 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: installation-reports
Severity: wishlist


On migrating my long-running system to a new disk (by cp), I discovered that 
/etc/uswsusp.conf
and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume then contained stale information 
regarding the partition 
to resume from. apt-file reports no package as responsible for these files; 
they appear to have 
been written out by the installer. It might be useful to provide a small script 
to update these
files (update-resume-info?). Changes in the way devices are represented or 
the configuration
of other disks in the computer may also be a scenarios where such an updater 
would prove useful.

Best regards,

Boris

Bug#553404: cups: n-up printing incorrect

2009-10-30 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: cups
Version: 1.3.11-1+b1
Severity: normal


n-up printing does not work correctly. Use of the -o number-up=2 option 
(with the lpr command) causes two pages of the original document to be 
printed in half the output sheet (as if n-up=4 had been chosen). If I use 
-o number-up=4, the 4 pages are printed squashed into a quarter of the 
sheet. From okular (where I first discovered the bug), if I change the page 
order (from default LRTB to BTLR) 2-up printing then causes two full sheets 
of paper with the original pages sizes to be printed. Changing to landscape 
does not solve the problem in okular at least.

Bug#551768: cups: socket failed error / problem parsing terminal colons in URI?

2009-10-20 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: cups
Version: 1.4.1-4
Severity: normal


Several configured printers no longer worked with cups after an upgrade (to 
testing and ustable). It 
appears that the DeviceURI socket entry in /etc/cups.printers.conf of some 
printers (configured a while 
ago) have a terminal colon that is no longer parsed correctly, causing a 
socket failed error. 
Reconfiguring the printer (making sure to renew the connection description) or 
removing the colon by hand 
both reestablish printing.

Best regards,

Bug#540059: Boot hangs during udev; udev segfaults several times

2009-08-31 Thread Boris Barbour
I should have specified that the above tests were carried out with the stock 
2.6.30-1-amd64 kernel.

Bug#540059: Boot hangs during udev; udev segfaults several times

2009-08-31 Thread Boris Barbour
On Saturday 15 August 2009 23:40:14 Marco d'Itri wrote:
 Boot with init=/bin/bash, open a second console using something like
 openvt and then start running manually the scripts in rcS.d/.
 This way you will be able to understand exactly where the boot process
 is hanging and why.

Thanks for the debugging instructions.

I appended init=/bin/bash to the boot line

I then used the following commands:
openvt -s bash
cd /etc/rcS.d
./S01glibc start
etc

./S03udev start hangs and produces the same last message as before the 
hang during normal boot. That message is 

input: HDA Intel HP out at Ext Front jack as 
/devices/pci:00/:00:1b.0/input/input9

So it does seem the problem is triggered by the udev start script. Any 
suggestions for how to narrow down the problem would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Boris

Bug#540059: Boot hangs during udev; udev segfaults several times

2009-08-05 Thread Boris Barbour
Package: udev
Version: 0.141-1
Severity: important


Following a large upgrade, my testing machine no longer boots correctly. It 
appears 
to hang, always at the same place, but will eventually continue. I have 
determined 
the following:

- The hang occurs after messages relating to the sound card and before messages 
  relating to the hard disk (the exact messages differ between kernels)
- Ctrl-C during the hang will allow the boot to continue
- It occurs with stock kernels 2.6.26-2-amd64, 2.6.28, 2.6.29, 2.6.30
- Rescue disks (testing of 04-Aug-2009 and 5.01) seem to boot correctly (the
  testing disk only works in graphical mode, but the problem with text mode
  doesn't appear to be the same, as the keyboard is hung also)
- The udev version on the testing rescue disk appears to be the same as that 
installed
- Reinstallation of the udev package doesn't help
- Reinstallation of the kernel doesn't help (tested for 2.6.26-2-amd64)
- Booting with UDEV_DISABLED=yes doesn't hang, but other things maybe don't 
work 
  afterwards (e.g. konsole doesn't reach a prompt) (tested with 2.6.30)
- bootchart seems to indicate that udev is holding things up and consuming near 
100% 
  CPU most of the time
- dumping process information with sysrq during the hang lists udevd, vol_id, 
  path_id, events/3 and sleep among runnable processes
- on a single occasion, repeating error messages from mptbase were reported (I 
didn't 
  note the exact message)
- fsck reports no issues on the filesystem
- Using Dell's bootable Drivers and Utilities disk to check the hardware 
reported 
  no failures on any test, in particular there were no issues with the hard 
disk or 
  sound card
- After adding udev_log=debug in /etc/udev/udev.conf:
--- *many* console messages fly past during the hang
--- they include messages about sd_mod, bsg, block, so might indicate a disk 
issue
--- if the boot is allowed to continue spontaneously, these messages do not 
appear in the
system log, but several segfaults in udev are reported in the log
--- if ctrl-c is issued during the hang, several hundred megabytes of udev 
messages are 
written to the log
- googling for similar reports has not thrown up much (I have disabled the 
floppy in 
  the bios and blacklisted the floppy module; booting with pci=nomsi does not 
resolve 
  the problem either)

I am open to suggestions for how to decide whether this is a bug or a hardware 
problem.

I have most of the debugging output mentioned above available, but some of it 
is quite 
large, so I shall await instructions on what to send or how to analyse it.

Bug#540059: Some additional information

Because hdparm is run during the hang, I tried the command. It reports some 
problems :
