[Bug 1251281] Re: gnome-session-flashback/Unity fails to start without hardware acceleration in cloud/remote environments (Forwarded-X/XRDP/VNC/NX/X2GO/Chromoting)

2015-03-23 Thread Michael DePaulo
@plotkin I do not know because I no longer have a copy of NX 3 that I
can install, and NoMachine removed it from their site.

I would look for a config file under /etc/ where you can define what the
GNOME session command is. If that doesn't work, look for an NX 3 script
under /usr/ (I am not sure where they store their files) that defines
what command to call, and edit it. (Assuming their license permits you
to edit said scripts.)

[Bug 1251281] Re: gnome-session-flashback/Unity fails to start without hardware acceleration in cloud/remote environments (Forwarded-X/XRDP/VNC/NX/X2GO/Chromoting)

2015-03-17 Thread Michael DePaulo
@plotkin it should work as long as you tell NX 3 to run the command:
gnome-session --session=gnome-flashback --disable-acceleration-check
(Not tested)

You may have to put that line in a script, and tell NX 3  to launch that
script. That's what you will have to do with X2Go at least.

I wrote the logic in X2Go for --session=gnome-flashback. I still need
to write the logic in X2Go for --disable-acceleration-check. Once I
do, X2Go users can simply select GNOME as their session.

 No, I think Compiz won't work without hardware acceleration. So only for

I just tested compiz 0.8.8.28.fc21 on Fedora 21 and I can confirm that
it does require the GLX extension.

So I agree that we should only add that option for metacity sessions.

 I thought it was that Unity in Ubuntu 14.04 requires 3D acceleration but if 
 so, why does Unity work when run in VirtualBox without 3D acceleration, and 
 also when run in a VMware VM in a vSphere console?

 I might be wrong but by 3D acceleration, VM hypervizors usually mean H/W 3D

 Also usually VM para-virtualized drivers support direct rendering and all 
 most X11 extensions which can be used by Mesa (pure software or LLVM-pipe) to 
 simulate 3D.
 Regarding Unity, it uses Compiz which also supports Mesa simulated 3D (at 
 least in recent versions).
 Environments like NX/VNC/RDP and etc, usually lack direct rendering and most 
 X11 extensions therefor 3D simulation is broken.
 It's sad that this fact is ignored by distributions and desktop environments 
 developers and we are enforced to deal with it here :-(

Greetings from an X2Go developer,

This isn't a simple explanation, but it is as simple as I could make
it without losing important details.

On recent Linux distros, llvmpipe can provide software 3D rendering.
However, in order for 3D rendering to work with GNOME3 (and with many
other 3d programs), you *also* need an X server with good enough
support for the GLX extension. The X server needs to support the GLX
extension in the 1st place, and it needs to support a new enough
version of the GLX extension.

The current version of GLX is 1.4. I just checked: Both Ubuntu 12.04
and 14.04 have GLX 1.4 support in their X.org server.

X2Go (whose X server is nxagent 3.5.0.x) only supports GLX 1.2, You
can verify this by running the glxinfo command under X2Go. GLX 1.2
is not new enough for GNOME3, and thus X2Go is affected by this bug.

TightVNC 1.3.9-6.4ubuntu1 (in Ubuntu 14.04) is also affected because
it does not support GLX at all. You can verify this by running the
glxinfo command under a TightVNC server.

TigerVNC 1.3.0 (in Fedora 20) does support GLX 1.4. Therefore, it is
not affected; you can run GNOME3 under TigerVNC 1.3.0 (and possibly
prior versions.) I just tested this on both a physical Fedora 20
machine with 3D graphics hardware, and on a Fedora 20 VM whose
hypervisor does not provide 3D support.

When you running Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.4 under the VMware vSphere
console, the regular X.org X server is running, and that X server
supports GLX 1.4. VMware vSphere (ESXi) can provide 3D hardware
acceleration under certain setups, but in the absence of 3D, the guest
OS simply uses llvmpipe. In either case, the guest OS thinks the
vSphere console is its local display.

The composite extension is also a limitation of many X servers. I am
not sure if the version needs to be new enough, or if the extension
simply needs to be present.

-Mike

[Bug 1000472] [NEW] gnome-disk-utility won't let you select certain partitions

2012-05-16 Thread Michael DePaulo
Public bug reported:

I recently pulled a 2GB microSD card with a complex MBR partition table out of 
my Chumby One (an embedded device), and put it into a USB 2.0 SD card reader on 
my Ubuntu 12.04 AMD64 desktop/server. When I view the disk/reader in 
gnome-disk-utlity, it won't let me click on certain partitions. There are also 
2 other issues:
1. It Splits free space into 2 adjacent sections of free space.
2. Reports the first free space section (the last partition I can click on) 
as having a capacity of 18446744 TB (-134,217,728 bytes)

The screenshot I will attach demonstrates this. I have the last
partition I can click on selected. Specifically, I can select only the
3 primary partitions at the beginning of the drive and the first section
of free space.

[Bug 356022] Re: unable to mount or browse samba networks

2012-05-14 Thread Michael DePaulo
Mlaverdiere,

Yes, you do need to have the samba package installed because it
contains nmbd, the netbios P2P name lookup daemon. Otherwise, your
system tries only DNS for the name lookups, which fail for the
aforementioned reason.

I've become more experienced with Linux, and my recommended complete workaround 
to this issue is as follows:
1. Install the samba package.
2. Edit the line for hosts in /etc/nsswitch.conf  so that wins is inserted 
right after files.
e.g., if your nsswitch.conf has this hosts line:
hosts:  files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 wins
change it to:
hosts:  files wins mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
Do this even if wins was not on the original line, still add it after 
files. As a standard precaution, you should backup your original 
/etc/nsswitch.conf also.

What this does basically, is it makes linux to both lookup hostnames via 
netbios (wins) in general, and prioritize those name lookups over DNS name 
lookups. This mimics the default behavior of Windows.
(Step 2 may not be necessary for many users like Mlaverdiere because the samba 
suite uses its own name resolve order by default (the name resolve order line 
in smb.conf.), rather than the global /etc/nsswitch.conf file for all Linux 
programs.)

Also, some newer home wireless routers both:
A. Tell DHCP clients (your computers) to use it as the DNS server. E.g., it 
will tell them to use 192.168.1.1.
B. Automatically create DNS records for those DHCP clients.
This feature resolves the issue completely, and making my workaround 
unnecessary.

[Bug 642475] Re: 2nd or later attempts at sending gmail password fail

2010-10-06 Thread Michael DePaulo
OK.
The log is attached.
Here's what I did:
1. Entered your command and started evolution.
2. Canceled out of the default request for google IMAP password.
3. Hit Send/Receive
4. Canceled out of the request for google IMAP password and purposely entered a 
wrong password at the 1st prompt for my google SMTP password. (not sure in 
which order)
5. Entered my correct google SMTP password when asked for it a 2nd time. It 
failed with the same error as before. I repeated this 2 more times. So these 
buggy authentication attempts happened 3 times.
6. Canceled out of the final request for my google SMTP password and then quit 
evolution.

It looks like the failures to authenticate SMTP with the correct
password start at around line 1230 in the log. Shortly before that I
believe there is the first SMTP authentication attempt (where I
purposely entered the wrong password.) Most of the log deals with it
refreshing my mailboxes (or something along those lines) and attempting
to connect over IMAP, which I believe happened twice.

[Bug 408417] Re: No option to log in remotely via XDMCP

2010-05-01 Thread Michael DePaulo
ghook's method work's erratically with lucid

I followed his instructions (it sounds more like the actual feature than a 
workaround) by adding these lines to /etc/gdm/custom.conf
[daemon]
RemoteGreeter=/usr/lib/gdm/gdmlogin

[xdmcp]
Enable=true

Sure enough, I can connect to the server with Xming and the window with gdm 
pops up
Xming.exe -query 192.168.1.101

After repeated testing, I believe that both GNOME sessions and Failsafe GNOME 
sessions seem to worked erratically. When it doesn't work, after you enter your 
password and hit enter it freezes up.
Alternating between those two types of sessions seems to help.

Please note that I had a neatx NX session going, and I have LTSP
installed with no LTSP clients going.

In my auth.log I have a bunch of lines like these (my username is mike and I 
hadn't been doing any other types of logins):

[Bug 356022] Re: unable to mount or browse samba networks

2010-04-09 Thread Michael DePaulo
I figured out what the problem was!

We are customer's of Comcast, a large American ISP, in State College,
Pennsylvania, USA.

They have DNS search redirection or whatever. EVERY hostname name is
resolved by them. If it isn't one on the public internet, they redirect
you to their web server with a search result for whatever the hostname
is.

Eg. if I were to enter adgagsfaa or minitrue as the address bar in
firefox, comcast's search results for those terms would come up because
it resolved those random/local addresses to their web server. Similarly
if I enter those terms as an address in nautilus, comcast DNS resolves
them to their web server as well. In other words, Comcast's DNS results
are superseding all of the SMB/WINS/NMB/whatever results for the local
network.

I just tried ping telescreen from minitrue, and it resolved it to
208.68.139.38 .

I believe this may be a problem with OpenDNS as well.

I fixed the problem by using Google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8  8.8.4.4).
Immediately everything started working.

Windows does not have this problem because they have
SMB/WINS/NMB/whatever to resolve hostnames before they try DNS results.

One possible workaround, other than using a real DNS service, is to
implement windows' behavior with /etc/nsswitch.conf.

Whether or not Ubuntu's software should be patched to avoid this
problem, I don't know. I doubt using either of these workarounds could
be made user friendly.

[Bug 472793] [NEW] GNOME background being imposed on another background

2009-11-03 Thread Michael DePaulo
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Right now, as seen in the attachment, one background is being imposed on 
another background. You can find the two backgrounds in:
/usr/share/backgrounds/cosmos

I selected the cosmos slideshow for my background under the appearance
preferences. My system has been running with this background set for
about a day.

Ironically, neither compiz nor any other compositing manager is enabled.
I disabled the normal desktop effects (and thus compiz) yesterday to
address the adobe flash mouse click issue.

I would also like to add that the background is stuck (not changing) and
nautilus is using 2.1 GB of RAM with no nautilus windows open (although
I did do some large searches recently with it.)

Based on Lamah's info, it sounds like there is no way we can fix it.
Still, I tried out rhythmbox on Intrepid Alpha 6 and it fails to connect
all the same without displaying any error message (that Apple makes
their shares incompatible with 3rd parties.) I believe it would be very
helpful for the average user to see such an error message.
