Bug#857926: Building the fglrx kernel module untested beyond Linux 4.4

2017-04-06 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Package description for fglrx-driver version 1:15.12-2~bpo8+3 (current 
jessie-backports) says: "Building the kernel module has been tested up to Linux 
4.4"

Looks like we just did the testing - I confirm your results.

Release notes for Intel NUC 2820 BIOS:
https://downloadmirror.intel.com/26318/eng/FY_0055_ReleaseNotes.pdf

Changes in version 55:
- Security Enhancements
- Changed the time it takes to enter the power button recovery menu to 
4 seconds
- Improved the BIOS update function by disabling the keyboard and
  power button during the flash/recovery process
- Added Windows firmware update function
- Added NVRAM preserved variables: DmiData, UUID, OA3Data
- Fixed an issue that when the User Access Level= limited, the User
  could still access the following restricted Setup options:
  Minimum/Maximum Duty Cycle (%); Primary/secondary Temperature Sensor
- Updated Visual BIOS to 2.2.20 from 2.2.19
- Hotfix to remove download driver and automatic BIOS update feature

Changes in version 53:
- Changed the time it takes to enter the power button menu to 3 seconds
  after G3 sleep state
- Changed the time it takes to enter the power button menu to 4 seconds
  after S4/S5 sleep state

I fail to see anything that might be related to our issue... But then I
don't understand the issue either.



Bug#840005: yowsup-cli: Whatsapp registration fails with "reason":"old_version"

2016-10-07 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Package: yowsup-cli
Version: 2.4.102-1~bpo8+1
Severity: important

Package from jessie-backports

https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=old_version does
not return any file containing the string "old_version" so I'm guessing
that this issue might be caused by a library not being up to date with
Whatsapp current protocol.

Bug#794410: (no subject)

2015-11-10 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
I encountered this perfectly reproducible exact 12% total freeze bug 
using a Jessie installer image dating back a few months on an Intel 
J1900 host with integrated Realtek network hardware - I'm afraid I don't 
know which Jessie sub-version.


However, on the exact same hardware (including the USB flash dongle), 
the Debian installer completed successfully using the 
debian-8.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso image.


Users who encountered this bug with a Jessie DI version older than the 
8.2.0 that was published in September 2015 might want to try again with 
that one.




Bug#789326: libhtml-html5-entities-perl: Can't locate HTML/Entities.pm

2015-06-19 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Package: libhtml-html5-entities-perl
Version: 0.004-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

On Debian Jessie,

$ perl -MHTML::Entities -ne 'print encode_entities($_)' testfile
Can't locate HTML/Entities.pm:   ./HTML/Entities.pm: Permission denied.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

# ln -s /usr/share/perl5/HTML/HTML5/Entities.pm 
/usr/share/perl5/HTML/Entities.pm

$ perl -MHTML::Entities -ne 'print encode_entities($_)' testfile 
aeiuoé

So, we have /usr/share/perl5/HTML/HTML5/Entities.pm but invoking the module
yields a complain that it should be at /usr/share/perl5/HTML/Entities.pm

Since
http://search.cpan.org/~tobyink/HTML-HTML5-Entities-0.004/lib/HTML/HTML5/Entities.pm
says "HTML::HTML5::Entities - drop-in replacement for HTML::Entities" I believe
that Entities.pm should be located at /usr/share/perl5/HTML/Entities.pm since
it fixes the incorrect behaviour.

Bug#750500: installation-reports: Jessie amd64 netinst encrypted LVM: stuck at /target/boot/efi vfat partition creation

2014-06-03 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

Dear Maintainer, the Debian Installer from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso
remains stuck and unresponsive right after committing the partitioning and
formatting of an encrypted LVM full-disk setup. Switching between consoles and
using consoles other than the DI remains possible, but the DI won't exit the
screen announcing the creation of a vfat partition at /target/boot/efi. No
suspect syslog or dmesg entry is evident.

The Wheezy Debian Installer is perfectly functional using the same options on
the same host.

As I am currently waiting for the Wheezy DI to wipe the aforementioned host's
encrypted partition, I am unable to gather more details from it, but I will
upon request.

Bug#722471: (no subject)

2014-05-27 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
So, dear maintainer - did you have a chance to package a version that 
includes https://github.com/paperbagcorner/Clementine/commit/4c23072bef9 
? This patch has been merged in the main branch as 
https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commit/4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759


Strangely, it is not included in the 1.2.3 release 
(https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/releases/tag/1.2.3) - 
for example see this two histories of  /src/core/database.cpp :
- Head : 
https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commits/4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759/src/core/database.cpp 
- includes 4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759
- Tag 1.2.3 : 
https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commits/1.2.3/src/core/database.cpp 
- no mention of that patch.


Does anyone know why 4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759 has not 
been picked for 1.2.3 ?


Anyway... The 1.2.3 upstream Debian package at 
https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/releases/tag/1.2.3 is 
therefore not even worth testing.


On the other hand, 
https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commit/56dade25981da1656cbb68447e8518529e229978 
claims to "fix slow library search on sqlite 3.8" and it is included in 
version 1.2.3 - but that is much less important than the aforementioned 
bug which this thread is about.

Most glory but not all since he apparently did not bring it to the

According to AMD, there is a regression in the AMD Catalyst driver that should 
prevent that combination:
- 13.11 Beta V9.4 - Linux kernel 2.6 or above (up to 3.12)
- 13.12 - Linux kernel 2.6 or above (up to 3.11)

According to

it may be caused by something expecting hardware iommu support while my Intel

In the spring package (89.0+dfsg1-1 but also 88.0+dfsg1-1.1 and
0.81.2.1+dfsg1-6) the rts folder contains a file named spring.exe.manifest

This file is obviously related to the Microsoft Windows build. While harmless,
it should be removed from the Debian package.

Bug#654656: /etc/init.d/dnsmasq should support the statistics dump trigger

2012-01-04 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.55-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


When it receives a SIGUSR1, dnsmasq writes statistics to the system log.
It writes the cache size, the number of names which have had to removed
from the cache before they expired in order to make room for new names
and the total number of names that have been inserted into the cache.
For each upstream server it gives the number of queries sent, and the
number which resulted in an error.

/etc/init.d/dnsmasq should provide a method to trigger that statistics
dump method.

Here is the patch to let /etc/init.d/dnsmasq provide a method to
trigger that statistics dump method:

Bug#520393: Confirmed on wired Ethernet too

2009-05-04 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Using Arpwatch version 2.1a13-2.1 on a dual NIC host that performs routing and
a few services for a three stations LAN, I have also encountered surprisingly
high CPU usage - arpwatch was competing with other running processes to hog the
whole single core CPU. Restarting arpwatch solved the problem. I don't know how
long arpwatch had been running wild - probably a few days at least, and I do
not know what triggered this behavior either.

Bug#515835: flickrfs hangs on any access to the mounted directory

2009-05-03 Thread Jean-Marc Liotier
Bug confirmed with the same version of flickrfs.

flickrfs performs correct authentication and then logs a line for each
piece of metadata being read from flickr - so far so good.

But any access (I tried 'cd' and 'ls') on the mounted directory returns
nothing. Here is an extract from the 'lsof' output while the
abovementioned commands remain hung :

ls 5242  jim3r  DIR   0,18   0 1
/home/jim/tmp/flickr_mount_point
ls11323  jim  cwd   DIR   0,18   0 1
/home/jim/tmp/flickr_mount_point
ls11323  jim3r  DIR   0,18   0 1
/home/jim/tmp/flickr_mount_point
ls11887  jim3r  DIR   0,18   0 1
/home/jim/tmp/flickr_mount_point

Killing them does not work, nor does unmounting while the device is busy.

Here are the alst lines of the output of 'strace ls' performed on the
mounted directory :

stat64("flickr_mount_point", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("flickr_mount_point",
O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
fcntl64(3, F_GETFD) = 0x1 (flags FD_CLOEXEC)
getdents64(3,

The flickr account I am experimenting with contains about eight thousand
pictures in a few hundred sets.
