Re: error al executar evolution i/o nautilus

El problema era que vaig copiar la sortida de l'script easy_efl.sh al fitxer .xinitrc (si no recordo malament) i hi havia una linea, un export que feia que em fallessin aquestes aplicacions, quan arribi a casa i ho pugui veure in-situ puc escriure la linea exacta que em donava problemes.

Desde Ubuntu, en Evolution menu Archivo-Respaldar Ajustes, esto me genero un archivo .tar.gz de 5Gb. (tal vez por ahi venga el problema). Luego de instalar Debian 6. No veo por qué. Desde Evolution menu Archivo-Restaurar Ajustes, me pide que seleccione el archivo de respaldo, selecciono el generado anteriormente y luego de un buen rato me da error de que el respaldo no es un archivo valido. Vaya :-/ Lo 1° que hice fue descomprimir y desempaquetar el archivo, puedo ver todos los archivos y directorios en perfecto estado, y no da ningun error por lo que supongo que el archivo .tar.gz esta en buen estado. Podrás comprobar la integridad del tar.gz con alguno de estos comandos: How to check if a Unix .tar.gz file is a valid file without uncompressing? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2001709/how-to-check-if-a-unix-tar-gz-file-is-a-valid-file-without-uncompressing Recurri a San Google, este me dio varios post donde casi todos coinciden en los siguientes pasos: $gconftool-2 --shutdown $evolution --force-shutdown $tar xzf evolution-backup.tar.gz $gconftool-2 --unload evolution_setting.xml $gconftool-2 --load evolution_setting.xml la idea es desempaquetar en /home/miusuario/ todo el contenido. Ahi me di cuenta que no tengo el evolution_setting.xml, esto debido a que no hice un dump anteriormente. De todas maneras veo que eso solo tiene la configuracion de las cuentas. Si sólo lleva configuración de cuentas no debería impedir la restauración de la copia de respaldo :-? Al arrancar nuevamente evolution, no veo ningun correo ni nada. Yo tenia todos los correos organizados en carpetas. eran muchisimos y muy importantes. Agradeceria si alguien puede darme una buena mano para recuperar mis correos. Bueno, así a bote pronto le veo dos alternativas: 1/ Descomprimir el tar.gz y copiar/pegar manualmente los correos en su ruta (no sé dónde almacena Evo los mensajes pero no debe ser complicado encontrarlo...). Ah, aquí está: https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/data-storage.html.es 2/ Si aún tienes acceso al Evo original, hacer el transpaso mediante una cuenta IMAP-puente, es más costoso pero te evitas incompatibilidades ya que es un sistema universal (funciona independientemente del cliente de correo, del formato de los mensajes o del servidor). Pense que tal vez consiguendo un evolution_setting.xml de ejemplo como para rellenarlo manualmente. Pero no se si eso solucionaria mi problema. Ese archivo se generará automáticamente cuando crees una cuenta a mano. Creo que es muy importante tal vez el tamaño del archivo de respaldo pero no encontre ningun solucion en google todos dan la misma y no me funciona. 5 GiB no es mucho, sigo sin ver el problema :-? Tambien pense en alternativas como utilizar algun otro cliente de correo importando el archivo de respaldos. También, pero mejor usar la cuenta IMAP-puente.

Después está el tema de los sectores defectuosos... podrías intentar ejecutar un scandisk desde windows y un defragmentado sobre la unidad, a ver si logra solucionarlo. Por último está la recuperación de los datos con alguna herramienta dedicada como la que te comenta Gonzalo (testdisk) pero si el disco está dañado me temo que de poco te va a servir porque igualmente va a tener problemas para acceder al disquete o va a recuperar los datos pero dañados :-/ Si todo esto falla, busca alguna utilidad específica para la recuperación de disquetes dañados para entorno windows ya que seguramente tendrás más opciones donde elegir.

Isso já aconteceu comigo. Isso acontece por causa do pacote os-prober, que tenta adivinhar os sistemas operacionais instalados quando a configuração do GRUB é atualizada.

It's therefore very reasonable to avoid using it. There are no shortage of inclusive ways of expressing your meaning. When I spend the 2-5? minutes I'm able to dedicate to replying to a technical email, thinking about the the technical part to hopefully make sure it's correct, I'm not going to spend more than 20 seconds brainstorming for the perfect politically correct analogy. I attempted to be neither crude nor PC, simply selecting something in common use *here* and that most people would understand. I think everyone but you got that, even the ladies. At least I'll assume they did as I saw no negative responses. Nonsense. I believe that common sense and mutual respect are all that is necessary, including a willingness to recognise when one is incorrect. You just accused me of having no common sense nor mutual respect, and not being able to admit I'm incorrect, where I am not. And before that you accused me of stating something I did not due to your PC bent causing misinterpretation. You may have opened a can of worms here Jonathan. Since you decided to make an issue out of a non issue, told me to admit fault when the fault lie with you, then maybe I'll simply make an example of you. From now on I *will* use male genital analogies, using phallus, phalli, and phallic, the academically correct words for describing the sociological phenomenon. Then you can sit there and squirm in your chair screaming loudly, as there is nothing you can do about it. The phallic reference is protected under PC doctrine--is actually at the core of it--the whole white male dominated society, gender inequality, etc. I'll use your own poison against you. And when you run to the sociology and anthropology chairs, and PC committee chairperson there at Newcastle, they'll tell you I'm absolutely correct in my use of the terms, and moreover that each time I use them I'm bringing attention to gender inequality in the computing field, which is great, etc. Now, is this really what you want? Before you answer, think carefully about what you stated directly above, what you expect of others: willingness to recognise when one is incorrect If you can do what you expect from others here, we can kiss and make up (oops, is that PC?) and put this nonsense behind us.

Re: rootfs
It's probable that the dental work that was done has misaligned several teeth which would account for the pain spreading to places it had not been before, everything either is connected or connects in the mouth by way of contacts when we eat which is why I suggested a follow up visit to find which teeth make which new contacts they should not make and get that corrected. When I had my contact problem corrected the dentist changed the shape of my filling to solve that problem so it may not involve further damage to original dental material. Finally when solid food is possible again, go for the jello and the string beans since your body will rebuild teeth with materials found in both those foods. Calcium may decrease pain for a while but isn't used in tooth construction or repair because teeth finger nails toe nails and hair are all from the same cellular group. Bone is an entirely different cellular group. Warm coffee room temperature with the cafiene will help with the pain since gums absorbe cafiene before it ever gets into your stomach. So maybe hold that coffee in your mouth for a while and make it strong. Wormwood bark was used in earlier times and was called toothache wood too. Some people even used moss too. There's clove oil, but that's dangerous to use and can't be used repeatedly on teeth. On Fri, 19 Apr 2013, Raffaele Morelli wrote: 2013/4/19 Darac Marjal mailingl...@darac.org.uk That seems correct.

For large scale operations installing new kernel patches every few weeks simply isn't financially feasible/responsible. Even a junior admin's salary is better spent on things other than managing mass kernel upgrades. If one builds minimalist kernels one dramatically decreases frequency of mandatory kernel security patches. The security related flaws are typically in subsystems that are not part of a minimalist kernel. This is not necessarily true for everyone. Few things are, computing or otherwise. There are a lot of local factors to take into account. In a large, heterogenous environment, there's a significant investment of time required to properly manage rolling your own kernels across different distributions and versions thereof, plus the required time and expertise to assess each and every security release regarding a kernel to make a proper assessment as to whether you are vulnerable or not, on a system by system basis. Absolutely true for heterogeneous environments. But I specifically stated large scale. Large scale environments are pretty much always homogenous--web farms, mail relay and mailbox farms, compute clusters, etc. This is the ~1000 nodes up class of environment. Here you spend significant time going over patches, but you save more time doing less frequent roll outs. Managing the roll-out of distribution kernel updates, even if you might not be relying on the specific feature that is vulnerable, can be a more pragmatic choice. It certainly is at my place of work. And many places. Far more organizations rely on distribution kernels than custom, as most organizations are small and rely on vendors, having minimal or no IT staff of their own. There have been interesting examples of vulnerabilities in kernel modules that people aren't using but can still be exploited, if the system can be coerced into loading the module. Esoteric network protocols are one interesting example. An insufficiently-careful look at a security update may mean such a vulnerability is left lurking, because it's in a feature one doesn't need. Even if you don't build those modules as part of your minimalist kernel, there are some situations where a third party can build a module for your running kernel and the machine be coerced into loading it (I think there was that bug regarding where cores go during segfaults which was one such vector). On that note, one of the best tips I've ever received regarding keeping systems secure is to disable module loading at run time, once the system has all the necessary modules loaded to provide the service it is supposed do. As a side effect this would prevent you from updating kernel modules whilst keeping the host up. Of course, you may mean disabling module support when you say minimalist kernel. Since when are they mutually exclusive? I start with # CONFIG_MODULES is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set Then I only build in drivers needed by my machines, and they're pretty homogenous. I only have a couple of kernels for the fleet. I also omit drivers for hardware that may exist but will never be used such as USB, parallel, etc. I only build in the filesystems I use, EXT2 (for tiny boot partition) and XFS, and only the deadline elevator. I only include the processor/memory features I need, same for the block layer, etc. I simply strip everything I'm able to confirm is unnecessary for my workloads. This is why my kernels are less than 2MB (using gzip), and tend to need far less patching than distro kernels. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Which standard, POSIX? POSIX is a very good thing. Do you disagree? I could perhaps understand if there were major benefits. It's a good thing for helping to write software portable across UNIX implementations, when that's your goal. It isn't always your goal. It's slightly less useful if you are only targetting Linux (where LSB is a bit more useful, but still flawed). It's also quite old, a lot has happened since 2008. That's irrelevent as a systemd only linux world (which granted will never happen despite lennarts best efforts) would make using Linux more difficult for many major products where POSIX is a requirement and would damage Linux too as cross polination would be less likely. Let's explore this scenario in a bit more detail. When is POSIX mandated? Usually for user-land software written under contract to government or military, right? In that situation the company is delivering a product to run on top of an OS. That would not preclude that OS (which the customer has already got) from using systemd, nor Linux (with it's non-POSIX-compliant features) nor *BSD (with their non-POSIX-compliant features)… In other words I cannot see a scenario where this is actually the case. Does this happen? Or is POSIX compliance only mandated for operating systems that are deployed/sold to public or military funded projects. In which case what is important is that POSIX is implemented, not that it is exclusively implemented — i.e., a *superset* of POSIX functionality is acceptable. And lucky it is, because all the BSDs implement non-POSIX functionality, not just Linux. (Although none of free/net/openBSD are actually fully POSIX compliant anyway: see below) Absolute rubbish and SysV is just one of many methods that correctly use an init which also differes between systems but can be POSIC compliant. I'd like to see an answer to the question another poster put to you regarding this: which part of the POSIX specification specifically relates to init systems? So launchd is better than systemd because in this regard because it is POSIX compliant. Do you mean it does not rely on any non-POSIX features? POSIX compliant usually means something else. See e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POSIX#Compliant_via_compatibility_feature, which lists operating systems which are Mostly POSIX compliant. Note: Linux is mostly, not fully. Note also, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD are mostly, not fully. Lennart hasn't got a clue about UNIX. Why not take a true Unix source such Brian Kernighan and read The Practice of Programming and then reconsider. If you were a faithful follower of Kernighan UNIX philosophy, you wouldn't touch those nasty BSDs with a bargepole. What we know of as UNIX today is rather an amalgamation of the two — rather different — east and west coast philosophies. Technical arguments such as you can get from the book I have mentioned are very important but pass most people by. It's a great book but it's not to be taken as gospel, and it was written over 14 years ago. More relevant IMHO, but just as much not a panacea, would be The Unix Programming Environment, again co-authored by Kernighan, which is over 30 years old. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Image viewer with geotagging support
I'm looking for an image viewer that can read the geotagging information from EXIF and display where the pictures were taken in a map, and perhaps have the ability to edit that information (but I can live without that). digiKam can do that and much more, and that's exactly why I'd like to avoid it: I'm looking for something simpler.

Re: administration of initscripts
Hello Roger, Excerpt from myself: -- snip -- insserv clearly complains instead that other services are affected by this change. Generally to a admin insserv seems to be nicer API over update-rc.d to me. Apart from that, by this i found a major bug in rc-update(). Will fix that. i have question regarding insserv. I found a strange behavior to me and i would like to know if this on purpose. # insserv -s | grep mountkernfs.sh S:01:S:mountkernfs.sh # find /etc/rc[S0-6].d/ -iname *mountkernfs.sh -type l -exec unlink {} + # find /etc/rc[S0-6].d/ -iname *mountkernfs.sh -type l empty # insserv -s | grep mountkernfs.sh S:01:S:mountkernfs.sh So 'insserv -s' displays what it thinks should be there instead of just displaying what actually is there on disk? insserv(8) -s, --showall Output runlevel and sequence information. Do not update symlinks. If the above is on purpose should this text be stated more precisely? -- Regards, Thilo 4096R/0xC70B1A8F 721B 1BA0 095C 1ABA 3FC6 7C18 89A4 A2A0 C70B 1A8F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: rootfs
I am, as a matter of fact, subscribed to the FHS list. If you read the specification, you'll see that it does not in any way require /usr to be a *mountpoint*; it can be located on the root filesystem without any problems. It's actually the default partitioning method. Do you have any concrete reasons to have /usr separate from / ? You need to look at the rootfs section, having them separate makes what should be the most critical filesystem (rootfs) 100s! of times larger and that quite rightly contradicts the spec (good reasons are mentioned but some more benefits of this practice could be included however). -- ___ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.

Re: what's your Debian uptime?
OpenBSD has only had something like two holes in over a decade which is nice for uptime. Let's not get carried away here. I was under the impression that openbsd was one of the best things since sliced bread ... then I read this: http://allthatiswrong.wordpress.com/2010/01/20/the-insecurity-of-openbsd/ This article is wrong in many ways including saying it includes many of the features of grsecurity. They are actually quite different and saying OpenBSD implemented them after is simply untrue. You can lookup the author of grsecurity making this allegation on the OpenBSD lists if you wish. Saying systrace is recommended to protect from a succesful attack is also wrong. You have to such as with MACs know about things like syscalls and it is actually suggested you don't rely on it at all. Though systrace usage has been added to OpenSSH when run on OpenBSD recently. Not as a reliance but as an extra security measure against DOS attacks and chroot and dropping priviledges is used far more on OpenBD by default (possibly without users even knowing) than on Linux such as in the in base Apache, nginx, unbound, nsd, all of which are audited. Depending on MACS to protect from a succesful attack is bad security practice. The fact that admins time is better spent on preventing successful attacks in the first place and increased complexity of protections it brings is the reason OpenBSD advocates against MACs. Opening quote OpenBSD was not designed with security in mind and provides no real way to lock down and limit a system above standard UNIX permissions, which are insufficient. It's kernel was and is designed with security in mind (as far as the generic hardware will allow). Linux is not. Only standard unix permissions is actually incorrect which he later leads onto. I shall let you decide what that means about this article. File immutabilitiy is a useful feature which Linux hasn't got in such a useful form and at the end of the day everything comes down to the kernel and it's memory protection. He doesn't seem to understand that programs can use protected memory and that memory and processes are better protected due to kernel design and randomness throughout. OpenBSD has securelevels and with the kernel being far more secure than Linux they are far more reliable than MACs. Without grsecurity. Linux doesn't even allow users to close off the gaping hole of rawio (linux) or video aperture (OpenBSD). Standard unix permissions are extremely powerful and I challenge you to come up with a situation where they are not especially when secondary groups are used. It is certainly clear however that many do not understand the power of unix permissions, especially Redhat. On top of this new technologies like PAM do not have the best security track record. It is worth noting that even if you have the time for SELinux it has had it's flaws (I actually prefer grsecurities RBAC). It is clear that the author even does not understand this. the user has complete ownership over their files and processes, and the ability to change permissions at their discretion. This leads to many security concerns, and is the reason most attacks can be successful at all That is not true but is likely over the files they create which can be cotrolled under a DAC system just like a MAC which also has to understand what the user is expected to be doing beforehand. the malicious process or user will inherit the access of the browser or process that was attacked. The prevalence of the DAC architecture throughout most operating systems is still the primary cause of many security issues today. With many server processes still running as a privileged user this is a large concern. It's actually simpler better and more secure to drop priviledges and work on design. This can often be done by users and is often added to ports on OpenBSD. All then benefit and not just RBAC users. As an example of what is possible with extended access controls, it a web server process running as root could be set to only have append access(as opposed to general write access available in a DAC system) to specific files in a specific directory, and to only have read access to specific files in a specific directory. If some files need to execute, then that file itself (or the interpreter if a script) can be restricted in a similar way. This alone would prevent web site defacement and arbitrary code execution in a great many cases.

I am not sure what the best mechanics would be to implement it. But I think as soon as networking came online I would have the remote server with the encrypted disks contact a different server that I controlled. Have it pull the keys for the partition from there. Then automatically mount the partitions. Then have it continue the boot process normally and start the daemons normally. I have no central machine on the network. I want to encrypt because the machine is hosted, thus I do not physically control it. And that would leave some problem of booting the key_bearing machine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Do you disagree? I could perhaps understand if there were major benefits. It's a good thing for helping to write software portable across UNIX implementations, when that's your goal. It isn't always your goal. It's slightly less useful if you are only targetting Linux (where LSB is a bit more useful, but still flawed). It's also quite old, a lot has happened since 2008. That's irrelevent as a systemd only linux world (which granted will never happen despite lennarts best efforts) would make using Linux more difficult for many major products where POSIX is a requirement and would damage Linux too as cross polination would be less likely. Let's explore this scenario in a bit more detail. When is POSIX mandated? Usually for user-land software written under contract to government or military, right? In that situation the company is delivering a product to run on top of an OS. That would not preclude that OS (which the customer has already got) from using systemd, nor Linux (with it's non-POSIX-compliant features) nor *BSD (with their non-POSIX-compliant features)… In other words I cannot see a scenario where this is actually the case. That's a very narrow view of what may be delivered. Does this happen? Or is POSIX compliance only mandated for operating systems that are deployed/sold to public or military funded projects. In which case what is important is that POSIX is implemented, not that it is exclusively implemented — i.e., a *superset* of POSIX functionality is acceptable. And lucky it is, because all the BSDs implement non-POSIX functionality, not just Linux. (Although none of free/net/openBSD are actually fully POSIX compliant anyway: see below) Absolute rubbish and SysV is just one of many methods that correctly use an init which also differes between systems but can be POSIC compliant. I'd like to see an answer to the question another poster put to you regarding this: which part of the POSIX specification specifically relates to init systems? That's a loaded disengenuous question. A system running systemd can not be POSIX compliant ever. How can it not be relevant as pid1, if programs come to depend on systemd then you would have to fork more and more code and not necessarily just for embedded systems wanting leaner code but possibly for POSIX compliance. The key point is Linux running systemd is losing things and gaining almost nothing. So launchd is better than systemd because in this regard because it is POSIX compliant. Do you mean it does not rely on any non-POSIX features? POSIX compliant usually means something else. See e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POSIX#Compliant_via_compatibility_feature, which lists operating systems which are Mostly POSIX compliant. Note: Linux is mostly, not fully. Note also, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD are mostly, not fully. I was pointing out that you were twisting things. launchd being POSIX compliant has no bearing on the discussion. Your point was pointless. Lennart hasn't got a clue about UNIX. Why not take a true Unix source such Brian Kernighan and read The Practice of Programming and then reconsider. If you were a faithful follower of Kernighan UNIX philosophy, you wouldn't touch those nasty BSDs with a bargepole. Rubbish What we know of as UNIX today is rather an amalgamation of the two — rather different — east and west coast philosophies. The book talks about the east and west as you call them not as one being better but both being so depending on the task at hand because the world isn't black and white. What I was saying was that systemd goes against some of the good principles set forward in that book. Technical arguments such as you can get from the book I have mentioned are very important but pass most people by. It's a great book but it's not to be taken as gospel, and it was written over 14 years ago. More relevant IMHO, but just as much not a panacea, would be The Unix Programming Environment, again co-authored by Kernighan, which is over 30 years old. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: rootfs
- With a package manager, if any of the rootfs, /usr or /var are damaged, you need to either restore the entire set from a backup or reinstall. This comes back to the fact that all locations under the control of the package manager are a unified whole: if one part breaks, the whole thing breaks; more partitions may introduce more failure points. Not really, there is nothing stopping you from fixing just what is broken. It may also be that restoring takes longer or you may restore just root. You may choose to fsck -y /usr and do an installed package md5 check in the background with little downtime. Alternative for root you may do an fsck and check all the errors and inodes and restore fix or ignore as appropriate for the more important files. In any case a separation of important files must surely be a good practice that I would prefer to see kept. I can see very little good coming from amalgamation. -- ___ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together.
