[Bug 158262] Re: Cannot run tpb as normal user
I use Maverick (amd64). Problem with /dev/nvram privileges was solved by including user to 'nvram' group (created by this package) and creating follofing udev rule: KERNEL==nvram,GROUP=nvram,MODE=0660,OPTIONS=last_rule I put it to /etc/udev/rules.d/05-tpb-nvram.rules. I think it must be in package itself (not sure about exact file name). Also, file /etc/devfs/conf.d/tpb is obsolete and could be removed from package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158262 Title: Cannot run tpb as normal user -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD development release - Maverick Meerkat. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/.

[Bug 158262] Re: Cannot run tpb as normal user
To run tpb as a normal user, the user must be in the nvram group (As stated above). This can be done by running the command: sudo adduser username nvram To fix up the init script so that the stopping works, simply add the following line to the stop) part of the switch. The file I have attached is a demonstration of this. killall tpb Finally, to make the program run on startup, navigate through the menu System-Preferences-Sessions and add a new startup program. Name it Thinkpad Button and the command should be tpb -d. I could not get the init script in /etc/rc2.d/S99tpb (symbolic link to /etc/init.d/tpb) to work though. ** Attachment added: Fixed version of /etc/init.d/tpb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16091617/tpb%20fixed -- Cannot run tpb as normal user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 158262] Re: Cannot run tpb as normal user
I see that you intended to start tpb as system service as there is tpb script inside /etc/init.d (and in debian/ directory of the package). The problem is: tpb service does not come up at system startup (for a yet unknown reason, I'll figure it out). After system came up, the script works, but: - with /etc/init.d/tpb start you can easily start as many instances of tpb as you want. It doesn't check if tpb instance is already running; - no way to stop tpb with /etc/init.d/tpb stop -- Cannot run tpb as normal user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
