Thanks for the reply Milan.  As I am getting a bit confused as to where
to go from here would you please advise exactly what tests I should now
run with the Xubuntu Live CD, specifying if I should first set a user

2009-09-28 Thread Roger Miller
Fresh boot from Live CD.  Copy /var/log/auth.log to attached file
auth_no_passwd.

Use passwd command to change default ubuntu password from  (null) to
123456789.  Copy /var/log/auth.log to attached file auth_new_passwd.
Note the Error attempting to open/unwrap messages at the end!

Run the two commands in different terminals:
- in the first window:
sudo killall perl /usr/bin/perl; sudo 
/usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl -m 
UsersConfig --platform ubuntu-8.04
- in the other one:
sudo killall system-tools-backends; sudo /usr/sbin/system-tools-backends -nd

Run users-admin in a third terminal.  The root user is now visible in the 
Users Settings GUI.
Click on the authentication button and enter password 123456789.  The root 
user remains visible.

Add new admin user test and enter password of 123456789 when requested.
GUI error box appears with message The configuration could not be saved.
GUI Authenticate box appears with message System policy prevents modifying the 
system configuration.  Enter password of 123456789.
GUI error box appears again with message The configuration could not be saved.

root and test users now visible in the Users Setting GUI.  Close Users 
Settings window.
Terminal outputs from two specified commands attached in files command1 and 
command2.
Terminal output from users-admin command attached in file usersadmin

home directory for test is created.
cat /etc/passwd now shows full list of 32 users, including new user test.  
See attached file passwd.
cat /etc/group now shows 59 groups, including new user test.
However, group admin only includes ubuntu, not new user test.  See 
attached file group.

Sudo capability for user ubuntu now apparently working but no password
requested!  (Tested by editing a root file with command sudo nano
/etc/hosts.allow)

Copy /var/log/auth.log to attached file auth_new_user.  No dbus
entries present.

[Bug 240437] Re: Creating an user destroys most of users and groups configuration

2009-09-28 Thread Roger Miller
Just to clear up any confusion I will reiterate the comments in my
original post.  I am using an old, slow, AMD-K6 PC.  The problem I
raised is only apparent with this PC, although it works fine with other
applications (albeit s l o w l y ! ).  When I have tried the same Live
CDs in more powerful PCs, users-admin appears to work correctly.

A practical workaround is to add new users via terminal, rather than
GUI, commands.

My concern is that Xubuntu is meant to be suitable for older PCs, and
I believe that new users could have difficulty resolving the problems if
this bug cannot be fixed.  It is interesting to note that the Kubuntu
Live CD does appear to work correctly in this PC, including the kuser
GUI, especially as KDE apps tend to be heavier than XFCE/Gnome apps.

My experiences with this bug are that it never gives the same outcome
twice, indicating that it is likely to be related to the significant
processing delays inherent in old PCs.  This is why my original
description was Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor.

[Bug 240437] Re: Creating an user destroys most of users and groups configuration

2009-09-20 Thread Roger Miller
Thank you for the info Milan.  Yes, I did click Ctrl+C before creating
the user as the output had apparently stopped.  I have now re-run the
test with the following results:

After opening users-admin, the GLib-GIO-WARNING (x3) appears, together with a 
GUI error 
box The configuration could not be loaded.  When this error box is closed 
nothing happens.

On repeating the users-admin command, the GLib-GIO-WARNING (x3) is repeated 
but without 
the GUI error box.  The GUI Users Settings box then appears.  New password 
123456789 then 
entered to authenticate changes.

Add new admin user test via GUI.  This results in the Liboobs-WARNING, 
together with a GUI error box The configuration could not be saved.

Close error box and new GUI Authenticate box appears, with a repeat of the 
Liboobs-WARNING and GUI error box.  Authentication password 123456789 is 
rejected with 
Authentication Failure message.  Hit enter with no password and close the 
error box.

This error process is repeated once more, producing the list of 
Liboobs-WARNING three 
times in total.

At this point, the Users Settings GUI now has the Add User button greyed 
out and no 
users are shown in the box.

The last row of the test commands line shows file_locate_tool_failed::Couldn't 
find tool 
[pw].  No shell prompt is shown.

The last row of the users-admin terminal output is (users-admin:3498): 
Liboobs-WARNING **: 
There was an unknown error communicating with the backends: Did not receive a 
reply. 
Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the 
message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was 
broken.  No shell prompt is shown.

Closing the Users Settings GUI restores the shell prompt to the users-
admin terminal.

However, the test commands terminal remains stopped at the line
file_locate_tool_failed::Couldn't find tool [pw].  The shell prompt
can then only be restored with Ctrl+c.

cat /etc/passwd shows 31 users but new user test is not shown.
cat /etc/group shows 21 groups, including ubuntu but not test.  Also, group 
adm and 
admin have been deleted.  User ubuntu is not listed against any of the 
current groups.

sudo capability again lost.  Passwords of both 123456789 and  (null) are 
now rejected 
with the message ubuntu is not in the sudoers file.

Complete /var/log/auth.log is attached in file dbus 090920 but this
extract shows the two dbus entries:

Sep 20 10:38:42 ubuntu dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 0 matched rules;

[Bug 240437] Re: Creating an user destroys most of users and groups configuration

2009-09-17 Thread Roger Miller
Background:  I originally experienced this problem with an installed
version of Xubuntu Hardy (8.04).  I established that the Live CD had the
same bug.  As I do not wish to change my LTS installation at present, I
have since tried Live CDs for Jaunty (9.04) and Karmic (9.10) with
similar results.

With Live CDs, the default user is ubuntu and sudo commands respond to
an empty string as a password ().  Following a fresh boot into the
Xubuntu Karmic Live CD I have now set a user password for ubuntu with
the following results:

Use passwd command to change default ubuntu password from  (null) to
123456789.

cat/etc/groups confirms user ubuntu is in groups adm (4) and
admin(115).

ubu...@ubuntu:/etc$ sudo 
/usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl 
-m UsersConfig --platform ubuntu-8.04 -v; sudo /usr/sbin/system-tools-backends 
-nd
begin::Start of work report.

file_locate_tool_failed::Couldn't find tool [pw].

^C
ubu...@ubuntu:/etc$

As default user ubuntu, created a new user test as detailed in post #24 
above.
Entered password of 123456789 when requested.

No entry appears in Users Settings box.
home directory for test is created.

cat /etc/passwd now shows sixteen users, but new user test is not shown.
cat /etc/group now shows same nine groups:
(root, daemon, audio, nogroup, syslog, messagebus, avahi, haldaemon, ubuntu)

sudo capability again lost.  Passwords of both 123456789 and  (null)
are now rejected with message ubuntu is not in the sudoers file.

[Bug 240437] Re: Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor

2009-07-29 Thread Roger Miller
** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
  
  Xubuntu 8.04 Live CD
  Processor = AMD-K6 500MHz
  RAM = 311MB
  
  Menu Users and Groups:
  Users Settings box shows no users.  Unlock button is greyed out with text 
this action is allowed.
  Manage Groups box is also blank.
  
  cat /etc/passwd shows expected full list of users
  cat /etc/group shows expected full list of groups
  
  Using GUI, add user test with UID of 1000 and administrator profile.
  No entry appears in Users Settings box.
  No home directory for test is created.
  cat /etc/passwd now shows only user ubuntu
- cat /etc/passwd now shows only groups root, nogroup and ubuntu
+ cat /etc/group now shows only groups root, nogroup and ubuntu
  sudo capability now lost.
  
  Note that the number of users and groups deleted from passwd and group
  after using the GUI can vary.
  
  Xubuntu CD verified as good and this test works correctly on another PC
  with a 1GHz Celeron processor and 256MB of ram.
  
  Kubuntu 8.04 Live CD works correctly on AMD-K6 machine, with addition of
  users via GUI (kuser?) working normally.
  
  Conclusion - While Xubuntu is generally suitable for old hardware, some
  gnome system tools fail when used with the AMD-K6 processor.  Both the
  live CD and an installed version show the same behaviour.

2009-02-24 Thread Roger Miller
Using Xubuntu 9.04 Live CD:

gnome-desktop-data is already installed.
Try to install gnome-desktop-environment (including all dependencies) via 
Synaptic.

Message;  Some of the packages could not be retrieved from the servers
- Continued

Various errors occurred during installation, including no space left on
device.

Running users-admin from terminal and from menu GUI reports The
configuration could not be loaded.  You are not allowed to access the
system configuration.

Summary: Using the Jaunty Live CD I am unable to install gnome
desktop, probably due to low PC RAM (311MB) and poor processor spec
(AMD-K6 500MHz).

It would be helpful if another Xubuntu user experiencing this problem
(and with a better PC!) would try installing gnome desktop and then
report progress here.

2008-07-03 Thread Roger Miller
Just to check, I tried the Gutsy Xubuntu Live CD today on the AMD-K6
machine and found that the users-admin GUI seemed to work as expected.

The Users settings box only lists root and the properties appear OK
but it does not show the user ubuntu.  The Manage Groups box shows
the expected full list.  Both /etc/passwd and /etc/group have the
expected full lists, including the user ubuntu.

I added the user test via the GUI (as before) and it appeared
correctly.  Both /etc/passwd and /etc/group were found to have updated
correctly.

So, it looks like the current problem was introduced with Hardy :-(

how to interpret the logs regarding this investigation.

I don't quite understand how to look for the process with the command
line '/usr/bin/perl /usr/share//system-tools-
backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl -m UsersConfig'  I have a
basic knowledge of processes (ps and top) but am not sure how to capture
a transient process.  Could you please clarify.

Apologies for changing the bug status - is there any guide which shows
what Launchpad details can be changed by the various categories of
users?  Maybe it is necessary to lock some items down so that the
wrong users can't change them ;-)

[Bug 229169] Re: hardy live cd: ntp support is not installed, after installing it, it still wants to be installed

2008-06-28 Thread Roger Miller
Same symptoms observed with the following system in both Live CD and
installed modes:

Xubuntu 8.04
Processor = AMD-K6 500MHz
RAM = 311MB

Note that, although the GUI keeps looping around the NTP support is not
installed dialog, in my case NTP is actually installed on the first
run.  Terminal output is as follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ time-admin
(time-admin:6568): Gtk-WARNING **: Unsupported tag for GtkWidget: atkproperty
(time-admin:6568): Gtk-WARNING **: Unsupported tag for GtkWidget: atkproperty
(time-admin:6568): Gtk-WARNING **: Unknown property: GtkCalendar.display-options
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

After running time-admin from the terminal a couple more times the GUI
finally accepts the settings and allows servers to be selected.
However, running the same app from the Xubuntu menu (Applications,
System, Time and Date) still sometimes fails to show the selected
settings!

The same Live CD Time and Date GUI does work correctly (first time!)
when running on a 1GHz Celeron CPU with only 256MB of RAM, suggesting
that this problem may be limited to slow and/or old processors.

[Bug 240437] [NEW] Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor

2008-06-16 Thread Roger Miller
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

Xubuntu 8.04 Live CD
Processor = AMD-K6 500MHz
RAM = 311MB

Menu Users and Groups:
Users Settings box shows no users.  Unlock button is greyed out with text this 
action is allowed.
Manage Groups box is also blank.

cat /etc/passwd shows expected full list of users
cat /etc/group shows expected full list of groups

Using GUI, add user test with UID of 1000 and administrator profile.
No entry appears in Users Settings box.
No home directory for test is created.
cat /etc/passwd now shows only user ubuntu
cat /etc/passwd now shows only groups root, nogroup and ubuntu
sudo capability now lost.

Note that the number of users and groups deleted from passwd and group
after using the GUI can vary.

Xubuntu CD verified as good and this test works correctly on another PC
with a 1GHz Celeron processor and 256MB of ram.

Kubuntu 8.04 Live CD works correctly on AMD-K6 machine, with addition of
users via GUI (kuser?) working normally.

Conclusion - While Xubuntu is generally suitable for old hardware, some
gnome system tools fail when used with the AMD-K6 processor.  Both the
live CD and an installed version show the same behaviour.

This _may_ not be a bug but a feature!
I had a similar problem with OOo 2.0.2 but found that by typing more than a 
full line of text the drop capital then appeared correctly.
The solution was suggested by dpeach, OOo Advocate, in the following article:

[Bug 118281] Kernel upgrade - System restart required

2007-06-11 Thread Roger Miller
You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After a kernel upgrade with Dapper (6.06), Ubuntu displays the notification 
message System restart required.
After a similar update is applied to a Kubuntu system, no such notification is 
displayed.

Suggest Kubuntu should also display a similar notification message to
advise users that a restart is required after a kernel or Xorg upgrade.

2007-05-30 Thread Roger Miller
Thanks for the assurance Mattias.  Just thought the question should be
raised as many normal desktop installations may well have some servers,
such as NFS, enabled.  I have never had OoM errors previously on my two
Dapper PCs - if these do occur with the new kernel image then I shall
report back.

Is 2.6.15-28.55 safe for a desktop install?  If not then suggest this
should be removed from repositories until issue resolved.  A warning
should also be posted on ubuntuforums.org to help those who have already
installed this upgrade.

[Bug 88994] Re: Nautilus doesn't respect ACL when creating new files

2007-03-24 Thread Roger Miller
When creating a file in Nautilus 2.14.3 (Dapper) permissions are not updated as 
per the umask setting defined in /etc/profile.  When umask is changed from 
default 022 to 002 this should give the group write access with file 
permissions of 664, but Nautilus maintains file permissions of 600.  This 
causes problems when a group should have write access as a default.
Please fix Dapper and later versions asap.  Thanks.
