[Bug 293311] Re: nautilus thumbnails files on a mounted NFS share

2012-03-13 Thread Cédric Dufour
"nfs shares are usually local": this is completely counter-intuitive. NFS = 
Network File System. I think most would agree than a "network" file system is 
definitely not a local one (and would rightly so, when considering the 
differences in terms of access latencies).
Even on a high-bandwidth LAN (with 10GbE and 500+ Gb/s core switching 
capacity), having Nautilus preview feature enabled by default on NFS shares 
just throws our filers down, thanks to thumbnailing kicking in when users 
browse their 20'000+ (scientific research) videos folder.

[Bug 608774] Re: Nautilus should honor the HAL setting 'storage.automount_enabled_hint'

2010-07-22 Thread Cédric Dufour
Thanks for the quick feedback.

So, for others who may be lost like me, the new 'udev' way is (in 
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-my-rule.rules):
# Exclude my USB token (cf. pamusb) from automount
# NOTE: use 'udevadm test /sys/block/sdX' to find the ENV{ID_SERIAL} parameter
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_SERIAL}="", ENV{UDISKS_PRESENTATION_NOPOLICY}="1"

(See http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man7/udisks.7.html ,
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man7/udev.7.html, and
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man8/udevadm.8.html for
further info)

Cheers

[Bug 608774] [NEW] Nautilus should honor the HAL setting 'storage.automount_enabled_hint'

2010-07-22 Thread Cédric Dufour
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Hello,

Some use cases (e.g. using a USB key as an authentication token along
with 'pamusb') require automount to be disabled for specific drive(s)
(rather than globally for all drives, using for example 'gconf-editor ->
apps -> nautilus -> preferences -> media_automount = false')

This could be achieved using HAL policies. Example given (in 
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/my-policy.fdi):

  

  false
  false
  true

  


Unfortunately, in Lucid Lynx 10.04, this does not seem to work
(anylonger?).

Nautilus should honor (at least one of) the possible HAL settings listed
above.

Or is there a new recommended way to achieve this behavior?

Cheers

[Bug 529882] Re: user switch crashes with process termination (lucid alpha)

2010-03-29 Thread Cédric Dufour
Could it be upstart related? I experience the same bug and temporarily
solved it by restarting GDM after a 15 seconds delay in /etc/rc.local.

[Bug 449198] Re: No GUI option to change login theme

2010-03-19 Thread Cédric Dufour
I just found out that all the 'sudo -u gdm gconf-editor && etc.' hacks
were just wiped out by the latest GDM update (because the %gconf...
files in /var/lib/gdm got overwritten).

We need to find a way to allow customization of GDM in a way that
resists update, via a sensible '/etc/gdm/custom.conf' file and without
reverting to horrible hacks like the "CTRL-ALT-F1 + sudo + ...".

While I can live with lack of wallpaper and time format customization
(thought I'd rather not), I must ensure a few other parameters are
enforced, like getting rid of the users list.

Could we imagine some automated script that would get executed when
X/GDM launches (e.g. via '.xsession', IIRC), that would push some
parameters in the GDM configuration from a /etc/gdm/custom.conf file via
'gconftool-2' ?

[Bug 432598] Re: Do not show suspend/hiberate related UI if suspend is disabled in polkit

2010-02-14 Thread Cédric Dufour
Scratch my previous comment.

The /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/*.d files ARE honored, provided the
files are named *.pkla

Sorry

[Bug 432598] Re: Do not show suspend/hiberate related UI if suspend is disabled in polkit

2010-02-14 Thread Cédric Dufour
On Lucid, it would seem the /etc/polkit-1/* folders are not used.

Puting a power.conf file:

[Disable suspend]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.devicekit.power.suspend
ResultActive=no
ResultAny=no

[Disable hibernate]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.devicekit.power.hibernate
ResultActive=no
ResultAny=no

[Disable shutdown]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop
ResultActive=no
ResultAny=no

In:
 - /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d
 - /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d

Does NOT affect the applied policy (cf. pkcheck and Gnome shutdown
dialog)

Modifying the /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/* files DOES lead to the
expected results (cf. pkcheck and Gnome shutdown dialog)

Am I:
 - missing something (like reloading a daemon somewhere)
 - or is this a bug; a sysadmin would expect his custom settings to be in 
/etc/polkit-1 and be honored (and not be erased by some package update) ?
