Could you please point me to what this "accupoint" thing is?

One way to solve this is to have your post-login script wait for tails-additional-software-install.service to have started. Once this is done, the Additional Software are installed.

[Tails-dev] inclusion of xinput in the main build of Tails
Hello, i'm requesting the inclusion of xinput into the build. i need this software in the main build because i have a laptop with accupoint that keeps the mouse moving all the time making touchpad impossible to use. with xinput i can disable the accupoint altogether restoring the usability. most people with laptops with accupoint suffer from this problem, that is usually overcome with the option to disable accupoint on usb mouse detection in the windows mouse configuration. On linux this is done with xinput, and so you can list and then disable the offending input device. via persistence options, you can have it installed, but not available at login time and so you can't really use the dotfiles feature to script your way through because the program won't be installed when the scripts are run. so i request the inclusion of this tiny package so that i can get Tails working flawlessly on mature hardware.

[Tails-dev] Tor Browser 8.0.1 is ready for testing
Hi! We are happy to announce that our first point release in our 8.0 series is ready for testing. Bundles can be found at: https://people.torproject.org/~boklm/builds/8.0.1-build1/ We used the 8.0.1 release to ship the new stable Tor (0.3.4.8) which solves an annoying crash bug on older macOS systems (10.9.x). We furthermore found a better solution to our User Agent treatment: on desktop platforms Tor Browser will send a Windows User Agent at the network level while still allowing to query the unspoofed User Agent with JavaScript. This takes concerns about any server passively logging the User Agent into account while still avoiding broken websites as good as we can. Finally, we included a banner for signing up to Tor News which allows anyone to stay up-to-date about things going on in the Tor universe (which is, admittedly, sometimes hard to keep track of). Below is the full changelog since 8.0: Tor Browser 8.0.1 -- September 20 2018 * All platforms * Update Tor to 0.3.4.8 * Update Torbutton to 2.0.7 * Bug 27097: Tor News signup banner * Bug 27663: Add New Identity menuitem again * Bug 26624: Only block OBJECT on highest slider level * Bug 26555: Don't show IP address for meek or snowflake * Bug 27478: Torbutton icons for dark theme * Bug 27506+14520: Move status version to upper left corner for RTL locales * Bug 27427: Fix NoScript IPC for about:blank by whitelisting messages * Bug 27558: Update the link to "Your Guard note may not change" text * Translations update * Update Tor Launcher to 0.2.16.5 * Bug 27469: Adapt Moat URLs * Bug 25405: Cannot use Moat if a meek bridge is configured * Translations update * Clean-up * Update NoScript to 10.1.9.6 * Bug 27763: Restrict Torbutton signing exemption to mobile * Bug 26146: Spoof HTTP User-Agent header for desktop platforms * Bug 27543: QR code is broken on web.whatsapp.com * Bug 27264: Bookmark items are not visible on the boomark toolbar * Bug 27535: Enable TLS 1.3 draft version * OS X * Bug 27482: Fix crash during start-up on macOS 10.9.x systems * Linux * Bug 26556: Fix broken Tor Browser icon path on Linux Georg signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.
