[389-users] Disable attribute encryption

[Grant Byers]

Hi all,


Is there a way to either permanently disable attribute encryption, or to have 
the symmetric keys generated from an alternate RSA private key to that used for
TLS (given by cn=RSA,cn=encryption,cn=config)? I may be missing something, but 
this seems to be completely tied to TLS.


We don't use attribute encryption at all presently, and the process we use for 
rolling certtificates is basically a re-key. This results in the following error
messages;


[25/Nov/2021:06:32:33.562508644 +] - ERR - attrcrypt_unwrap_key - Failed to 
unwrap key for cipher AES
[25/Nov/2021:06:32:33.564813203 +] - ERR - attrcrypt_cipher_init - 
Symmetric key failed to unwrap with the private key; Cert might have been 
renewed since
the key is wrapped.  To recover the encrypted contents, keep the wrapped 
symmetric key value.
[25/Nov/2021:06:32:33.931422579 +] - ERR - attrcrypt_unwrap_key - Failed to 
unwrap key for cipher 3DES
[25/Nov/2021:06:32:33.935241033 +] - ERR - attrcrypt_cipher_init - 
Symmetric key failed to unwrap with the private key; Cert might have been 
renewed since
the key is wrapped.  To recover the encrypted contents, keep the wrapped 
symmetric key value.
[25/Nov/2021:06:32:33.937228742 +] - ERR - attrcrypt_init - All prepared 
ciphers are not available. Please disable attribute encryption.


I realise we could delete the encrypted attribute keys entries as part of our 
renewal process & have them regenerated, but that seems pretty hackish. The
message implies attribute encryption can be disabled ("Please disable attribute 
encryption."), yet the only way I see to do this is to disable TLS via nsslapd-
security. Can someone confirm?


Thanks,
Grant

Don't blame Linux for that, blame nVidia for not providing either 
drivers or the chipset's specs so that drivers can be written by OSS 
programmers.  If you must use nVidia but don't want to do what's needed 
to install the drivers, try Ubuntu because they automate the 
installation of the binary blob drivers.


I suppose I have to recognise that as a lone user my perspective will 
differ from that of sysadmins responsible for a whole zoo of systems. 
Although the RPMfusion packages don't offer automatic card recognition, 
my impression is that installation of a specific driver by dns is 
usually straightforward.  I have no 'special interest' in this.

Right... Hyperkitty also shows messages in threaded mode, where replies

of those applications are behaving as intended.


In Thunderbird, you might prefer to "Sort By > Subject" and "Sort By >

Put those commands in a shell script and create a .desktop file for it. 
 Put the desktop file in .local/share/applications.  Then you can use 
the Gnome tweak tool to add it to the startup list or put the desktop 
directly in .config/autostart.

Jeff,

My understanding is that ~/.bashrc runs before login, and not when GNOME 
is launched. I'm probably wrong but that's what some resources online are 
stating... I've also tried adding things into that file and it hasn't worked, which supports that theory.


Since Fedora separates GNOME on Wayland and GNOME on XOrg on the login 
screen, when selecting a DE, I need something akin to what Ubuntu does 
with the GNOME 'Startup Applications' app. Whether that's a GUI or 
something I do in Terminal.


I'm relatively "new" to GNU/Linux, per se. Been several years since I've 
actually touched it. I grew up on it but I've regularly used Windows/macOS 
since.


I guess what I'm saying is I need a lot more handholding, haha.

Thanks,

Right.  You can only have one of pulseaudio or pipewire.  You could try

xrandr (X11), Wayland xrandr alternative

[Slade Watkins]

Hey there,
Anyone know of an alternative to xrandr on Wayland that has proper Colorspace 
and Broadcast RGB (Full) support? I want to 
use Wayland (and get off of X.Org) for better trackpad gesture support but 
am out of luck due to not having something that works with it.


If not, then I'm fine sticking with X11 for xrandr. I've been having trouble 
figuring out how to get my two xrandr commands to run at startup in GNOME 41.
On Ubuntu, the distro I use on my desktop, there's just a 'Startup  
Applications' app that I can add those commands and my DE will run them when I 
log in.
Can't seem to find anything like that on Fedora (GNOME Tweaks won't work, since 
that doesn't allow me to specify the command).

If it helps, the two commands I configure to run at startup are:
$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full"
$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --set "Colorspace" "XVYCC_709"

These two commands fix my primary monitor so it displays correctly running 
off of my HDMI port. Otherwise black turns into a bright grey, and colors 
look washed out.


I'd love to use Fedora and migrate off of Ubuntu fully, since it meets my 
needs better, but I absolutely need to be able to run those commands 
automatically at startup. Just having trouble figuring that out.


Any help to lead me in the right direction is appreciated!

Thank you,

Many of the chipsets you mention have documentation, including
source code for an example driver.  In addition, many similar devices
all use the same chips, so one linux user can write a driver that
supports many devices.   There is still work to maintain the USB
product database, and particular devices can require passing some
extra parameters to the driver, but that is all manageable..  All that
is still far less effort than the reverse engineering required to provide
Nvidia drivers, and the result (nouveau) is high maintenance and has
limited functionality, but does support many use cases (mine included).

Ultimately, what features you get in linux depends either on hobbyist
level effort or commercial enterprises.  The latter are mainly interested
in large scale bitcoin mining and data centre use cases, so desktop
graphics work that is too complex for hobbyists is not being done.
In large enterprises, Microsoft is pushing  to replace linux workstations
with Windows+WSL, which takes advantage of Windows hardware
support.  This makes Windows a linux boot loader with access to
enterprise email and training videos.

Google has done a lot of interesting work with their android linux
ecosystem -- using hardware abstraction layers and testing
frameworks to make it easier for hardware vendors to write
drivers.  In the future we may see some android/linux hybrid
entering the workstation market.

F35 GNOME system display on some apps

[Frederic Muller]

Hi!

I freshly install F35 and Hexchat had a very boxy interface (like 
default GNONE 2.0. I saw it was an issue with Hexchat and would be fix 
at some point.


I just ran Gimp for the first time, started to customize the theme to my 
liking and chosing the system theme I have this same 2D boxy look from 
the 80's (** joke **).



So has anyone similar issue.. and eventually a fix?

Thank you.

One other thing I like about Evolution (it was my own suggestion,
 :-): you can point at a message and show the entire
thread its in, showing both read and unread messages and hiding
everything outside it. Slightly inspired by the "focus" concept in
Emacs.

I don't think so, unless you're trying to be funny.  We don't have to

That's obviously desirable. But *someone* needs to do the work to make 
it happen.  Who?  For what reward?  If you want to use a card that will 
cost you multi$$,  it just may be worth Reading the Manual - once.

OT: Thinkpad X1 carbon delays?

[Frederic Muller]

Hi!

I am/was thinking to get a Fedora installed Thinkpad (would be my first 
Linux pre-installed) and the delay is... huge! I'm getting it from the 
US and see 3+ months, but can't buy it. I have a good friend willing to 
buy it on my behalf who tells me he sees 7+ months delay.


What's your experience with Lenovo US and the shipment delays?

Thank you.

Fred

v4l2-ctl --list-devices
Cannot open device /dev/video0, exiting.
 

It looks like that I cannot turn the camera on (it is an internal camera).

fn+f6 does not do any thing.

The worst is that this camera has been workig in the past!

Here is a traditional favorite for enumerating Video devices:

 

[jwesterd@jwesterd-f33 Citrix]$ v4l2-ctl --list-devices

Live! Cam Sync 1080p: Live! Cam (usb-:00:14.0-2.4):
/dev/video2
/dev/video3

Integrated Camera: Integrated C (usb-:00:14.0-8):
/dev/video0
/dev/video1

 

[jwesterd@jwesterd-f33]$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/v4l2-ctl
v4l-utils-1.20.0-1.fc33.x86_64

So bad usb cable, bad usb socket, bad usb camera, or kernel issue
causing the driver to not allocate memory (or some other resource) and
finish loading.
