Bug#695548: nvidia-settings takes more than 1 minute to start
I, too, have encountered this problem. The cause of this symptom
(nvidia-settings taking too long to start) is easy enough to pinpoint.
Running it with strace shows that it gets stuck on this:
connect(6, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(6000),
sin_addr=inet_addr(X.X.X.X)}, 16
In other words, nvidia-settings tries to establish a TCP connection to
the X server, which is of course disabled on most modern Debian
systems, and for good reasons.
Finding out why it does that is also not that difficult, turns out.
Examining ~/.nvidia-settings-rc, I came across lines such as:
hostname:0[dpy:3]/RedBrightness=0.00
Removing these makes nvidia-settings start instantly. But it writes
them out again when it exits and thus it delays again at startup the
next time around.
I have version 304.64. I haven't yet tried a newer version to see if
the problem goes away. (The submitter has a slightly newer version
though.)
Thanks,
Vasilis

Bug#622555: starting the system with systemd makes klogd stop working, peg the CPU

Bug#590111: does kdebase really need to depend on hal?
Package: kdebase Version: 5:63 Severity: normal Hello, kdebase, according to its description, is only a transition package that's meant to pull kde-plasma-desktop. But then, why does it also depend on hal? hal is of course considered obsolete these days and is being replaced by udev and the various *kit packages. But also, it's not the KDE metapackage's job to bring in tangential packages like that; the actual real packacges that depend on it, if any, should do that. So unless there's some good reason to keep it there, I would suggest dropping it from the package's dependency list.

Bug#541272: kdm does not restart X server on logout with default settings
Oops, I had forgotten about this one...

The X server is restarted, I can login etc, but the moment I switch to a virtual console it crashes. So on the one hand, I still need the workaround I reported in the original submission. On the other hand, I guess it's a slightly different bug now. And finally, as they decided in the upstream bugtracker, I guess it's more of an X server bug than a kdm bug. So I dunno, how should we handle this? The crash means this is either a bug in xorg or in your video driver. Which video driver are you using? Can you also please provide the corresponding log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log or /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old) which might help with fixing the problem? I'm using the intel driver. Attached is the log from when this happens. I've put marks in it to demonstrate the different phases of the server's execution: The first part is when the X server is first started and I log into my desktop environment. Then, after the first mark (LOG OUT), it's the part when the X server is reset by kdm and I get the login prompt again. After the second mark (SWITCH TO ANOTHER VT) is the message output by the X server when I switch to another virtual terminal. And finally, after the third mark (SWITCH BACK TO X VT) are the messages that are output when I switch back, at which point the X server crashes. It's not very enlightening. :^( Anyway, which package do you reckon it's best to reassign this, xserver-xorg-core or xserver-xorg-video-intel?

Bug#564318: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Can't switch VT's when KMS is enabled
I'm having this problem too. The computer is a ThinkPad X40 laptop, with the 855GM graphics chip. With the current version of the intel driver package (2.9.1-2), once kdm starts, if I try to switch to another console with Ctrl-Alt-F? the screen simply freezes. Note that in my case it doesn't unfreeze again when I try to go back with Alt-F7; the only way out is to reboot. This behaviour is consistent regardless of the way the console has been setup, i.e. it appears: - when the console is running the vesa framebuffer - when the console is running the 80x25 text mode - when the console is running the KMS-enabled, i915-module-provided graphics mode (!) Oh, and I'm running kernel 2.6.32.1, which I have compiled myself. The only way I managed to solve this was by downgrading to 2.9.1-1; which required downgrading xserver-xorg-core too; which in turn caused me to lose all input devices until I downgraded the xserver-xorg-input-* packages too. Note that with the downgraded versions I'm still running everything (both console and X) with KMS and it's working like a charm. On another computer with the 945G graphics chip, I'm having no problems whatsoever with the newer versions of the aforementioned packages. Ideas?

Bug#563003: xserver-xorg-video-intel: New KMS method in experimental is not upstream recommended
From my own tests with current unstable today, adding video=i915 to the kernel command line suffices; the :modeset=1 bit is not necessary. In both cases, the resolution changes before /sbin/init is started, i.e. at initrd time. So it looks like the policy specified in /etc/modprobe.d/ does propagate to the initrd. Therefore at the moment, as far as I can tell, there are two ways to have a KMS-enabled console right from the start of the boot process, in unstable: 1. By adding video=i915 to the kernel command line, with or without the :modeset=1 suffix. 2. By adding i915 and intel_agp to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules. IMHO, adding the kernel command line option is no worse than what we had to do before anyway to enable suitable framebuffer consoles. But of course, if a way is found to load i915 automatically at initrd/udev/whatever time, that'd be great too.

(CC'ing the OpenAFS maintainer too.) Thanks very much for the information in this bug report and the NEWS.Debian file; I had encountered this problem too and have now fixed it by adding the setting mentioned.

Bug#558691: Also on upgrade
Hi, I just ran into this after upgrading a sid system. The X server was not upgraded, but hal and udev were, and when I restarted the X server (I needed to restart kdm) the keyboard and the mouse stopped working. It did appear to be a hal problem, so I disabled AutoAddDevices in xorg.conf, which eliminated the problem temporarily. And then I found this bug report and rebooted, which got rid of it permanently. I have before/after lshal output dumps that I can provide if you think they're useful. Also, the problem might be further down the stack indeed, as when I was rebooting I saw messages like failed - is udev active? (when laptop mode was stopping).

Bug#548466: real kernel is undependable
(Jumping into the conversation because I've been bitten by this too.) - don't put too much version information into the name of the real kernel package, and use the debian version number instead No, the binary package names must change for every ABI change, just as for shared libraries. Err, that's for every *incompatible* ABI change, no? Fact is I cannot install linux-image-2.6-amd64 at the moment, because the old real kernel package was removed from the archive, regardless that there is no conflict with the new one. At install time I have to know the exact name of the current kernel package, which is very painful for scripting. I guess another option is for the maintainers of linux-latest-2.6 to make sure that their binary packages do not become uninstallable, which is a serious bug anyway.

Bug#541272: kdm does not restart X server on logout with default settings
Package: kdm Version: 4:4.3.0-2 Severity: normal Hi, I recently installed kdm, and I noticed the following behaviour: Initially kdm would load the X server and I could log in. However, after logging out it would not start the X server again; instead I would see in the logs: kdm[2572]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly kdm[2572]: Unable to fire up local display :0; disabling. Thanks to a bit of digging around on the web, I found out that I could fix this problem by adding the following option to /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc: TerminateServer=true I'm not sure if the best way to fix this is to make this the default, or to somehow prevent the X server from terminating when the user logs out, but in any case this is a problem with the default settings that should be fixed.

Bug#541273: grub-pc: vga= kernel command line option has no effect when grub runs in console mode
Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20090808-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
When I set GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub (by uncommenting the
relevant pre-existing line), my vga=792 option to the kernel stops working.
Upon investigation, I found out that I can make it work again by adding the
following to the relavant menuentry:
insmod vbe
However, this is (a) completely undocumented and (b) not easy to automate,
beyond editing the scripts in /etc/grub.d directly.
I am running the latest version of the grub-pc package, i.e. I
grub-install'ed it. Thanks for providing the reportbug hook; I would have
missed it otherwise. :^)
If this issue could be addressed in some way, it would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Vasilis

Bug#445286: Readline frontend does not display default / already configured value
retitle 445286 Readline frontend does not display default / already configured value thanks When a package is installed/upgraded, or when the user is running dpkg-reconfigure, with most (all?) other debconf frontends the default value (or the value that was configured previously) is already selected, so that the user can just press enter and accept that. However, with the Readline frontend, the readline prompt is just blank, forcing the user to remember/reenter the same values again and again. It would therefore be great if the frontend injected the default value into the readline prompt, so that the user can just press enter and go for that. (The reason I'm hijacking this bug report instead of opening a new one, is because as far as I can tell this is the heart of the problem that the submitter was reporting, so I just wanted to emphasize the core issue here instead of creating a duplicate report.)

Bug#540572: After moving to grub-pc memtest86+ does not launch.
tags 540572 patch

reassign 540572 memtest86+
reassign -1 memtest86
thanks
Hi,
In the scripts supplied with memtest86+ and memtest86 for
/etc/grub.d, there are actually three distinct problems to be found:
1. They source the deprecated update-grub_lib instead of
grub-mkconfig_lib, which generates a warning when update-grub is run
(see #522345 and #523114).
2. They use the linux command, which fails to load memtest86+ and
memtest86; instead, the linux16 command is needed (see #539907).
3. They fail to work correctly when /boot is a separate partition
from /.
As the reporter mentions, for (1) and (2) there is a patch in
#539907 that addresses them. However, for memtest86+/memtest86 to work
correctly in his system, (3) must be addressed too. I'm attaching
patches for the /etc/grub.d files that fix all three problems (they
incorporate the fixes of the aforementioned patch and also fix the
additional problem).
Thanks,
Vasilis

Hi, I'm experiencing this bug too, so I thought I'd come here and report it.

Bug#396003: patch for allowing the reporting of paniclog messages only once
Hi, Attached is a patch to exim4-base.cron.daily that implements what has been described as an acceptable solution in this bug report: - If $E4BCD_WATCH_PANICLOG is set to no, no reporting is done (no change). - If it is set to yes, non-zero size paniclog is always reported (no change again). - If it is set to once however, a non-zero paniclog is reported only if it has changed since the last time the cron.daily script has run; so effectively only once for each time it changes. To implement this the script creates a zero size file in /var/lib/exim4 called paniclog.timestamp, which would also mean that the exim4-base package should contain /var/lib/exim4 (but this is just nitpicking). Anyway, this first iteration is mostly meant to be a proof of concept implementation. Of course if you like it you can add it as it is, but I'm open to suggestions on how to make it better etc. Thanks, Vasilis -- Vasilis Vasaitis A man is well or woe as he thinks himself so. --- exim4-base.cron.daily.orig 2007-11-21 15:29:05.0 + +++ exim4-base.cron.daily 2007-11-26 11:48:18.0 + @@ -54,17 +54,22 @@ fi } -if [ $E4BCD_WATCH_PANICLOG = yes ]; then +if [ $E4BCD_WATCH_PANICLOG != no ]; then if [ -s /var/log/exim4/paniclog ]; then -if [ -x /usr/local/lib/exim4/nonzero_paniclog_hook ]; then - /usr/local/lib/exim4/nonzero_paniclog_hook -fi -if [ -z $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE ] || grep -vq $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE /var/log/exim4/paniclog; then - log_this ALERT: exim paniclog /var/log/exim4/paniclog has non-zero size, mail system possibly broken - if ! printf Subject: exim paniclog on %s has non-zero size\nTo: root\n\nexim paniclog /var/log/exim4/paniclog on %s has non-zero size, mail system might be broken $(hostname --fqdn) $(hostname --fqdn) | exim4 root; then -log_this PANIC: sending out e-mail warning has failed, exim has non-zero return code +if [ $E4BCD_WATCH_PANICLOG != once ] || \ + [ ! -e /var/lib/exim4/paniclog.timestamp ] || \ + [ /var/log/exim4/paniclog -nt /var/lib/exim4/paniclog.timestamp ]; then + if [ -x /usr/local/lib/exim4/nonzero_paniclog_hook ]; then +/usr/local/lib/exim4/nonzero_paniclog_hook + fi + if [ -z $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE ] || grep -vq $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE /var/log/exim4/paniclog; then +log_this ALERT: exim paniclog /var/log/exim4/paniclog has non-zero size, mail system possibly broken +if ! printf Subject: exim paniclog on %s has non-zero size\nTo: root\n\nexim paniclog /var/log/exim4/paniclog on %s has non-zero size, mail system might be broken $(hostname --fqdn) $(hostname --fqdn) | exim4 root; then + log_this PANIC: sending out e-mail warning has failed, exim has non-zero return code +fi fi fi +touch /var/lib/exim4/paniclog.timestamp fi fi

Reassigning the bugs and pretending that the problem does not exist does not make it go away. People who don't understand what's happening here should simply not run unstable. I know that sounds harsh, but the testing dist has been built exactly to avoid such problems. You're welcome to cherry pick stuff out of unstable if you need them, I think that will give you a better experience with Debian. I've been using unstable successfully for many years now, I don't need the patronising thanks very much. And besides, how are you going to have testing be relatively bug-free if you try to drive away from unstable the users who actually care enough to report the bugs, so that they can get fixed before the packages hit testing? Anyway, you didn't answer my question at all. All I see is this package being uninstallable and its maintainers pointing fingers elsewhere instead of fixing it. Now obviously from your point of view you're doing the right thing, so it'd be nice if you could explain why this is so instead of trying to avoid the subject altogether.

Bug#391873: merge libxine old ogg files bugs
severity 391873 normal reassign 391873 libxine1 merge 273697 391873 tags 273697 - unreproducible thanks Hi, This bug has been reported a couple of times for libxine1, so I'm moving / merging it there. Besides, it's not specific to amarok-xine; all applications that use libxine1 are affected. I'm also removing the unreproducible tag from the libxine1 bug, since a lot of people have encountered this, and in fact I'm also one of them (I have 1.0beta4 ogg files that amarok refuses to play).

Bug#360806: confirming bug
Hi, I'd like to confirm this bug. I have a PCMCIA wireless card handled by hostap and using wpa_supplicant too. When I eject the card, the interface is brought down thanks to udev events, but the post-down scripts aren't executed. I haven't the slightest idea why this is happening though. Thanks, Vasilis -- Vasilis Vasaitis A man is well or woe as he thinks himself so. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#360806: a bit more info
Actually, I think I know what's causing this. Consider the function
iface_down() in execute.c:
int iface_down(interface_defn *iface) {
if (!iface-method-down(iface,check)) return -1;
set_environ(iface, stop, pre-down);
if (!execute_all(iface,doit,down)) return 0;
if (!iface-method-down(iface,doit)) return 0;
set_environ(iface, stop, post-down);
if (!execute_all(iface,doit,post-down)) return 0;
return 1;
}
Bringing down the interface probably fails when the card has been
ejected, because by the time ifdown is called the interface does not
exist anymore. So the function returns and the post-down scripts never
get the chance to execute.
So how can this be solved? Obviously, an easy solution would be to
ignore the success or failure of bringing down the interface, i.e.
instead of:
if (!iface-method-down(iface,doit)) return 0;
have:
iface-method-down(iface,doit);
But then failure to bring down the interface wouldn't be reported at
all. Instead, how about having the function like this:
int iface_down(interface_defn *iface) {
int status = 1;
if (!iface-method-down(iface,check)) return -1;
set_environ(iface, stop, pre-down);
if (!execute_all(iface,doit,down)) status = 0;
if (!iface-method-down(iface,doit)) status = 0;
set_environ(iface, stop, post-down);
if (!execute_all(iface,doit,post-down)) status = 0;
return status;
}
In fact, I've just made this change to ifupdown on my laptop (and a
similar change to the iface_up() function) and now it seems to work as
intended. But of course it'll need some more testing. Can the package
maintainer comment on this in the meantime?
Thanks,
Vasilis

Bug#357713: /usr/bin/startx is broken
(Just got back after a few days of being away, so replying to a couple of things). David Nusinow said: Were you running the experimental packages at all? The only route that myself and Eugene can figure out for causing this is due to the brokeness of the initial uploads to experimental that lacked the versioned dependency on x11-common. No, I wasn't, 7.0.0-2 was the first version I installed. Bastian Kleineidam said: I just installed the new xorg packages, and the startx script still has the wrong paths: $ grep /usr/lib /usr/bin/startx sysclientrc=/usr/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc sysserverrc=/usr/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc Don't know why though, the patch file debian/patches/12_startx_paths.diff looks fine, but it did not get applied it seems. Erm, the patch you're referring to patches startx.cmd, which appears to be an OS/2-specific file. Probably an oversight of the package maintainer. Still, it would help if you could provide a little more information if this is causing trouble for you. Is /usr/lib/X11 a directory or a symlink on your system? What about /usr/lib/X11/xinit? What are the contents of /usr/lib/X11/xinit and /etc/X11/xinit? Note that in the current version of xbase-clients (7.0.0-4), /usr/lib/X11/xinit is a directory, containing xinitrc. xserverrc is not contained in the package any more; in fact, according to packages.d.o, it appears not to be provided by any package in the archive at the moment. People upgrading from a system where /usr/lib/X11/xinit is a symlink should not be affected; the rest lose the -nolisten tcp argument that has been the default in Debian for years, and instead get the default X invocation by xinit.

Bug#357713: Fixed... is it really?
reopen 357713 severity 361516 important merge 357713 361516 362122 tags 362122 - experimental thanks Hello, I just wanted to point out here, that just because the problem *went away* for the submitter does not necessarily mean that the bug was *fixed*. Here's my take on this: the reported behaviour was probably caused by bug #362122 (which I reported yesterday). That is, when the submitter first upgraded to the new modular packages, xbase-clients unpacked things meant for /usr/lib/X11 over the existing symlink to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11. Amongst those was the symlink xinit, pointing to /etc/X11/xinit. Therefore startx could not find /usr/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc anymore, so it passed an empty client argument to xinit, which then fell back to executing xterm -geometry +1+1 -n login -display :0, which was what the submitter was seeing on his screen. Fast forward to yesterday. The submitter upgraded to the packages in unstable, which included a version bump of xbase-clients, so it got upgraded. This time, /usr/lib/X11 already existed as a directory (because of xutils, for example), so everything got unpacked in the correct position, and things started working again. So for example, if I am correct, there should be two xinit links in both /usr/lib/X11 and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11. So, did the problem go away? Sure did. Did it got fixed? Probably not. I'm actually reopening the bug and merging it with the other bug reports that I've identified as relevant; please yell at me if that's inappropriate.

Bug#362122: xbase-clients: package does not contain directories within which it contains files
Package: xbase-clients Version: 1:7.0.0-2 Severity: important Hello, The package file of xbase-clients does not seem to follow consistently the usual convention of Debian packages, whereby any directory that the packages has files in is also contained in the package. In particular, the following directories seem to be missing: /usr/include/X11 /usr/include/X11/bitmaps /usr/lib/X11 /etc/X11/xinit /etc/X11/Xresources Especially the absence of /usr/lib/X11 is causing a lot of trouble, because in previous versions of X it also exists as a symlink, pointing to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11.

Bug#340001: freetype bytecode interpreter in the X.org X server
Hello, I'm joining along here to express my support for this patch and bug report in general. For me, enabling the bytecode interpreter and compiling my own X.org packages made the difference between actually upgrading to xserver-xorg and sticking with xserver-xfree86. With current xserver-xorg packages (in fact, all of them from the beginning) server-side truetype fonts look *very* ugly, which makes applications like emacs all but unusable. It should be noted also that the debian freetype packages *do* have the bytecode interpreter enabled in their default build, which is why client-side fonts (used by all modern applications) don't suffer from this problem. As a final note, bug #345865 appears to be a duplicate of this bug, so the two should probably be merged.

Bug#337942: more info on s-s-d --stop --exec, patch
Hello,
My system has been affected by this for *ages*, though only today
did I find out the exact nature of the problem. Let me explain:
After my computer had been turned on for a week or so, this morning
cron suddenly complained about daemons failing to restart:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy
error: error running postrotate script for /var/log/acpid
error: error running postrotate script for /var/log/icecast2/error.log
Restarting filtering proxy server: invoke-rc.d: initscript privoxy, action
restart failed.
error: error running shared postrotate script for /var/log/privoxy/logfile
/var/log/privoxy/jarfile /var/log/privoxy/errorfile
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
/etc/cron.daily/man-db:
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/gsmsiectl.1 is a dangling symlink
mandb: warning: /usr/share/man/man3/open_memstream.3.gz is a dangling symlink
The same thing also happens with syslogd, which ends up (after the
log rotation) writing to /var/log/foo.log.0 instead of foo.log. So, I
traced the nature of the problem and quickly found that s-s-d was to
blame:
# ps ax | egrep acpi
9 ?S 0:00 [kacpid]
1894 ?Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/acpid -c /etc/acpi/events -s
/var/run/acpid.socket
30532 pts/3S+ 0:00 grep -E acpi
# start-stop-daemon --stop --exec /usr/sbin/acpid
No /usr/sbin/acpid found running; none killed.
Finding and reading this bug report, it seems that prelink is indeed
the culprit; prelink did a full prelink the previous night, which
modified the acpid executable, so --exec was unable to match the
running acpid with the one residing on disk.
So, I created a patch that modifies the behaviour of --exec in the
way suggested by the last e-mail in this bug report: use readlink() on
/proc/pid/exe instead of stat(), and compare the file names rather
than the device / inode numbers. I have tested it, and it appears to
work fine and correct this problem. The patch is attached.
Thanks,
Vasilis

Bug#325850: post-install fails because of absence of mlton doc control file
Package: mlton Version: 20050826-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hello, This version of the mlton package fails to configure. After being unpacked, the configure phase fails with the message: Setting up mlton (20050826-1) ... /usr/share/doc-base/mlton: cannot open control file for reading: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing mlton (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 This happens because the postinst script has the snippet: for f in mllex mlton mlyacc; do install-docs -i /usr/share/doc-base/$f done while the file /usr/share/doc-base/mlton does not exist. The solution here would be, either to create one, or remove its reference from the postinst script.

Bug#324859: mlton: uninstallable because of dependency to libgmp3
Package: mlton Version: 20050822-1 Severity: grave Tags: sid Justification: renders package unusable Hello, The new version of the mlton package that has just been uploaded is on the wrong side of the C++ transition; it has been compiled against libgmp3, which does not even exist in the archive any more. The solution is to compile it against libgmp3c2, which is the version of the library that follows the new C++ ABI.

Package: xmms-modplug Version: 2.05-8 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hello, The xmms-modplug package currently depends on libmodplug0, which does not exist in the archive any more, due to the ongoing C++ transition. Therefore, it is uninstallable in sid. The solution, of course, is to recompile and reupload. I have already recompiled it (as can be seen by the dependency table below), and did not encounter any problems. So it should be fairly painless.

Bug#320972: stalin: please recompile with newer libgc
Package: stalin Version: 0.9+0.10alpha2-1 Severity: wishlist Hello, The stalin package currently depends on libgc1; however, this has been obsoleted because of the C++ transition in favour of libgc1c2. Because of the simultaneous dependency to libgc-dev, this means that stalin and libgc1c2 are incompatible; only one of the two can go in at any time. The solution, of course, is to upload a new version compiled against libgc1c2. It shouldn't be particularly difficult; I did an apt-get -b source stalin on my system and the binary package built just fine, and it's the one I have installed currently (see the dependency table below). So it should be fairly painless.
