Title:
  SSH_AUTH_SOCK not being properly set: user has to type password even
  if saved in the password manager

Status in GNOME keyring services:
  Unknown
Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “lubuntu-default-settings” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Status in “lxdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lxde-common

  SSH_AUTH_SOCK is not being properly set. (Or it is pointing to a sock
  that doesn't accomplish its job.)

  Expected behavior:
  You run ssh myn...@mydomain.net and the password manager opens a GUI to ask 
for the passphrase. Once unlocked, it remains unlocked until you log off. 
Moreover, at that moment of unlocking you can tell it to remember the 
passphrase forever so it gets automatically unlocked next time you login. Any 
other application that uses ssh-like connections will find this key unlocked as 
well.

  Observed behavior:
  You run ssh myn...@mydomain.net and it prompts you for the key passphrase 
in the terminal. You run it again, you are prompted again. Any other 
application that uses ssh-like connections will result in a passphrase prompt 
as well.

  How to reproduce:
  Enter Lubuntu session
  Open Passwords and Encryption Keys
  Create a Secure Shell key
  Configure this key to some domain you can ssh to
  Open a terminal and run ssh myn...@mydomain.net
  You are promted for a password in the terminal interface.

  Partial workaround:
  Here is a partial workaround for a terminal session: export 
SSH_AUTH_SOCK=`echo /tmp/keyring*/ssh` after the keyring-daemon has been loaded.
  But it only works within the same terminal session, not for other 
applications that launch ssh-like processes.
  Disclaim: it works for Lubuntu session inside a Ubuntu 10.04 install, with 
GDM as session manager.

  $ printenv SSH_AUTH_SOCK
  /tmp/ssh-PZgdl10603/agent.10603
  $ ssh mydomain
  Enter passphrase for key '/home/leorolla/.ssh/id_rsa': [pressed ^C]
  $ export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=`echo /tmp/keyring*/ssh`
  $ printenv SSH_AUTH_SOCK
  /tmp/keyring-k3BQQd/ssh
  $ ssh mydomain
  Last login: Wed Oct 20 19:58:06 2010 from

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu - One Stop Thread

2011-11-04 Thread Ali Linx
Tim,

For the 2nd time and yet again, I'd like to THANK YOU for each and every
word you wrote and for each and every suggestions, be sure I'll keep that
in mind and I'm very sure you wrote all that because you want to help :)
totally understood.
However, I'm afraid you are not seeing my point.

Again, if you go back to my email, or just go to that thread and check the
banner I posted which was done in Photoshop at 4am last night, you'll
understand EVERYTHING :)

That thread is NOT meant to be for posing problems and fixes. That thread
is meant to be an online huge bookmarks thread where anyone can find
everything.
Also, this thread is to analyse users reactions and experience. I'm having
another thoughts much more than just a thread.

For me, even though in one week or less, the thread became Sticky and the
viewers are increasing in a rapid rate - Thank God for that, this is really
promising. However, I don't see anything huge in that. That's nothing.
Thing is, I'm a man with unlimited ambitions. If you want to motivate me,
just de-motivate me and wait for the out-come because you'll be dazzled :)
Believe me, I'm not showing off at all, I'm just trying to tell you one
simple thing: Don't worry, keep supporting me :)

We are one team and serving one noble purpose. Our thoughts and approaches
may vary but after all, we are doing what we do for one simple purpose:
Seeing Lubuntu at the top where it MUST be.

I'm a strong believer in Lubuntu and I'm not going to waste one single day
... I'll invest all my energy in this.

Another point I'd like to highlight. If your thread went 4K and became
LOST, it doesn't mean same will happen with my thread :)
If I'll fail to control things and my thread will be lost, that's not a
problem. By that time, I would have something better than that thread, be
sure of that :)

Thank you for your support and thanks again for your suggestions. I already
started to take that into actions, let's see what will happen :)

 Dear ALL,

 it simple and short and organized as much as possible and I do have some
 plans for that but again, wait please :)


 A.J.,

 I don't think it's too much to *ask* users to either use the appropriate
 thread to discuss issues or start a new one if one doesn't exist.  If you
 read my suggestion, it's about making their experience more useful to
 others and providing you with a way to mange that information.  They can
 still post to the thread, but try to take specifics to the appropriate
 thread so that information can be more useful to others.   *You just need
 to explain why your asking them to do it that way and how and provide
 instructions. *   I think if you were to make these changes in post #3,
 LOST will be the bomb!  You may have to police it a little in the
 beginning, but it gets rolling, people will follow along.

 It's not about telling what they can't do.  It's about telling them what
 the CAN do to make their contributions more useful.  It's up to you
 though.  LOST is your baby.  Keep up the good work.

 Tim

It's my opinion that you need to do this at the top where everyone can see
it.  Post #122 will be buried in no time.

I love the bookmark concept.  I'm just saying that you could to ask the
users to start and use them, so that you can bookmark the unsolved ones
alongside the ones that are solved.  I think it will make your already
useful thread even more useful.

Not much more I can say.  I can't make it any more clear than I have.  I've
explained myself as best as I can.   There is no real reason for us to keep
this discussion ongoing and I don't want to waste everyone's time.  *I

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] I can use Lubuntu for remaster?

2011-11-04 Thread Gabriel Salles
Ola João.

Como já responderam, pode sim fazer. Eu dei uma olhada no seu site e vi que
se trata de uma distribuição um tanto voltada para a educação. Como o
Lubuntu não tem ainda versão LTS (e não terá num futuro próximo), talvez
não seja a melhor opção neste caso. Sendo assim, eu queria sugerir outras
distribuições que de repente sirvam melhor para você utilizar ou fazer um
remaster. A primeira seria o Edubuntu http://www.edubuntu.org/ , que
oficialmente faz parte da família Buntu.

Há também uma distro que nunca cheguei a usar, mas já ouvi falar algumas
vezes, que é o http://linuxeducacional.com/

Outra, que não aparece no DistroWatch, é a distro Tucunaré, criada pelo
Banco do Brasil e utilizada em muitos telecentros e escolas aqui no Brasil
http://www.redetelecentro.com.br/ . Até onde eu sei, é baseada no próprio
Debian. Penso que vale a pena conhecer este ultimo.


Abraço!

2011-11-04 Thread Julien Lavergne
Hi,

I don't think all the sources are incompatible.
I'm agree that wiki should be the knowledge base, and the reference for all the 
documentation. However, having a forum thread for a bookmark purpose and 
chatting is also useful, as long as it points to wiki pages, and people are 
encourage to contribute to the wiki. Having useful answer or info in a post 
will be lost if nobody save it on the wiki.
Even Askubuntu can be used, with some links to the wiki also.

Julien Lavergne

Ali Linx amjja...@gmail.com wrote:

 Note: This is for everyone so lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net :)
 
 Dear ALL,
 
 First thing I've been told when I joined back in August is to learn how to
 be patient so please, be patient :)
 
 Appearances could be deceiving ;)
 One Stop Thread has started as 2 HOWTOs for Lubuntu, that's all. I then
 figured out that Lubuntu Users need something a little bit beyond so there
 came One Stop Thread. After my thread became sticky, that motivated me even
 more to go beyond but I'm just waiting the right moment as I have huge
 personal issues on real life that I must deal with it before anything else
 but I'm actually ignoring and focusing on the best thing I love to do in
 life, that is Linux.
 
 What am I talking about?
 One Stop Thread is just the first step towards something bigger and much
 more useful.
 Last night, I made a banner using Photoshop (sorry, can't use GIMP at the
 moment - I'm faster on Photoshop) and I made it for a purpose. If you will
 have a look, you'll understand the whole point of having One Stop Thread
 and the real primary purpose of it :)
 
 Check : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1844755
 You'll see the banner at the very beginning :)
 
 I'm trying to see the reactions of people and so far, they loved it. Then,
 I'm going to improve it on daily basis. Then, I'm going even beyond that
 but again, please be patient.
 
 However, I DO REALLY REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE all what you have mentioned
 and I'll take that into consideration. One thing that you guys need to know
 is, One Stop Thread is NOT meant to be a place where people start posting
 about their problems and expect an answer. I know this is what is happening
 right now but if you notice, these are general questions. Above all, I can
 NOT ask people NOT to post over there because that is against the real
 purpose of my thread. However, what I can do is to keep it simple and short
 and organized as much as possible and I do have some plans for that but
 again, wait please :)
 
 I found myself helpful more on the forum. This is what I've been doing for
 a year even before joining Lubuntu Team so I'll carry on with that :)
 I also founded very interesting to update the Wiki Area and keep it up to
 date. However, the real question is: Do you guys want the Wiki Pages to be
 our Primary Source of Information? be careful because that means the Wiki
 Area will be much bigger than what it looks like now.
 If you have a plan to make it as good as Arch Wiki (which has almost
 everything about Arch) then I'm more than ready but ... I'm doing many
 other things like Forum, Testing, etc etc and I don't want to lose my focus
 on that. More people must be involved on the Wiki Pages IMHO.
 
 For me, Forum is much easier to maintain and then I update the Wiki
 Pages accordingly.
 Also, Traffic on Forum is much more.
 Above all, I don't really feel comfortable when I browse our Wiki because I
 feel there is something missing. I think the whole thing needs to be
 reviewed and re-organized. IMHO of course.
 
 Another thing is: www.lubuntu.net must be back to action again. I see NO
 POINT of re-directing the page to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu
 
 I have asked before if I can update it and I've been told that this access
 can't be given to new people. Understood. But someone must take the
 responsibility and focus on our website. As a user, I don't feel happy when
 the page re-direct to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu
 
 You see I have tons of ideas but I'm not sure yet when to discuss all that?
 I'm still doing that here on the mailing list but I guess we need some
 other place.
 
 In the mean time, I prefer to focus on what I'm doing and not to do many
 things at one time.
 
 I'm really glad to get all these replies from you, that means a lot to me,
 seriously :)
 I promise that I'll do my best to provide the best to everyone in this
 community and one thing you need to know about me is that when I go extra
 miles, I really go EXTRA MILES so don't worry about me. However, I can't do
 everything alone, I need more people to be involved. I do love team work.
 That's why I made another thread: Lubuntu One Stop Group.
 
 Everyone here is doing great job, no doubt about it but we need to be
 little bit more organized and each one of us focus on one or two things,
 not everything. That will increase our performance in no time. Again, just
 my humble personal opinion.
 
 :)

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.
I didn't understand if you tested the last PPC ISO from daily build or not ? If 
it's working, it can be considered as an unofficial ISO.
Also, it's possible to make it official for 12.04, but we need people available 
to test Alpha and Beta ISO, during ISO testing process.

Also, pcmanfm is still broken using the backports, so the situation is not

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] PPC

2011-11-04 Thread
At the time I wrote to the list, the only available PPC ISO was an old 
daily, NOT the most current. Also, there still has never been an 
official release build of Oneiric. At this time, I see 12.04 in the 
dailies. So I'd be happy to test that but I'd like to write instructions 
for Oneiric. Any chance of getting an official release build?

 At the time I wrote to the list, the only available PPC ISO was an old 
 daily, NOT the most current. Also, there still has never been an 
 official release build of Oneiric. At this time, I see 12.04 in the 
 dailies. So I'd be happy to test that but I'd like to write instructions 
 for Oneiric. Any chance of getting an official release build?
What do you mean by old ? If it's around October 10, it's the last daily build 
of Oneiric, so the most up-to-date you can have for 11.10. It's not possible to 
have an official release for Oneiric, you can only try to use the last ISO.

For 12.04, you can test dailies later (it's not useful right now, it's too 
early in the cycle). It's more important to test ISO before developement 
release (Alpha, Beta ...).

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu - One Stop Thread

2011-11-04 Thread Michael Rawson
A suggestion; (although you may or may not think it's acceptable-as mentioned, 
your baby, I respect.)
Perhaps you could leave the thread as-is and any helpful post/articles could be 
incorproted into the wiki? I see this as a good way to generate loads of wiki 
pages at relatively little effort and/or inspiration.

And it's a brilliant idea, the LOST. :)
