similar to: [fdo] config files for keyboard layouts

Hi, I'm curious what work has been done on security desktop apps using things like SELinux and AppArmor or equivalents on other OSs. At the moment it seems to be the norm for apps to both read and change their config files if they have them and that seems to offer the potential for malware to exploit a bug in an app to make it easily propagate to the next invocation of the app. My general

(It was suggested I send a copy of this to ext3-users, so here it is - note that I need this RAID going so I've rebuilt with reiser, but would still appreciate suggestions; the message was original sent to the lkml) Hi, I've just built an 800GB RAID5 array and built an ext3 file system on it; on trying to copy data off the 200GB RAID it is replacing I'm starting to see errors of the

Hi Ian, I've been going through some sparse scans of the kernel and it threw up: CHECK drivers/net/xen-netback/xenbus.c drivers/net/xen-netback/xenbus.c:29:40: error: dubious one-bit signed bitfield int have_hotplug_status_watch:1; from your patch f942dc2552b8bfdee607be867b12a8971bb9cd85 It does look like that should be an unsigned (given it's assigned 0 and 1) Dave

Hi, Before starting, I must say that I haven't change my Linux OS (Mandrake 8.1) for 3 years. So, I dont't really know if there were a big evolution until now. I don't know if there is a possibility to edit keyboard on Linux (libxklavier ?...). If not, it should be launch by freedesktop.org. If yes, it should be a word about this. In this editor, there would be a list of all existing

I just sent this email to xdg but I'm not sure that was the right place? How do I enable the sco keyboard resource? I am running Debian 5. I need to enable the scoansi function keys. [09:58:43] ~$ xterm -kt sco KeyboardType resource "sco" not found do I need to install anything? Regards, Bill

Not the OP, but I will tell you why it is important. GPL, as you know, is put in place to protect the opensource aspect of the code, and as such requires the changes be published for modifications that are done on top of the existing

Hello I am developing X application nowI have one question about xorg-xf86-input-keyboard license I checked following file https://github.com/freedesktop/xorg-xf86-input-keyboard/blob/master/COPYING  This file show MIT licene And I found following file  https://github.com/freedesktop/xorg-xf86-input-keyboard/blob/master/src/lnx_kbd.c   * Portions based on kbdrate.c from util-linux 2.9t, which

Hi, I had an idea which I think could dramatically improve the cross toolkit display of widgets. At the moment toolkits load their settings and a style from files stored locally where the client is running. The problem with this approach is that every toolkit has its own place and means of storing these settings. When programs are run from more than one toolkit they often appear very

Hi, I'd like to be able to use KDEs kprinter (kprinter --stdin) as alternative printer for my wine driven apps (e.g. winword). What I like especially is the fine working PDF printer and the feature to attach the PDF immediately to an email. I tried already the cups-pdf printer. But this driver doesn't create valid PDF for my MS WORD document. KPDF and Acrobat are at least not able to

Hi all, I want to manage .desktop, .menu and icon files of a project (Wormux) with autotools. Does it exist some doc about this ? I had a look at Amarok sources and I could install the .desktop with the following in my Makefile.am : xdg_appsdir = $(datadir)/applications xdg_apps_DATA = wormux.desktop Are there some similar variables for icons and .menu files ? Furthermore I saw on some Gnome

Hi, I'm trying to run smbmount on a machine with the root filesystem mounted as read only (it is a little embedded Linux PC which I want to pick up some files from its controlling NT box). The problem is that smbmnt doesn't appear to support the -n flag that normal mount supports which avoids accessing /etc/mtab. Can any one suggest any solutions to this ? Dave

Hi! I can only paste a limited amount of text into R (which is started in KDEs Konsole). The script I have problem with stops pasting after 4224 characters, and 78 lines. Although I can get Rs' attention at that point by just pressing Return. The script mainly consists of a a large amount of vectors that I would like to join into a dataset for further analysis. Example of vector: AC

It looks like libplugin_common.a is being linked into the shared object libxmms-flac.so. In that case, all of the objects in libplugin_common.a must be compiled with -fPIC. ----- Forwarded message from lamont+buildd@hp.com ----- Date: Sat, 28 Sep 2002 18:54:08 -0600 From: lamont+buildd@hp.com Resent-From: lamont+buildd@hp.com To: submit@bugs.debian.org Subject: Bug#162718:

I'm having a pretty serious rsync bug, which I've submitted to the Debian bug system. But as the rsync maintainer there seems to be a bit slow in fixing problems, I thought perhaps I should report it here as well. I'm using rsync 2.6.2 on a Debian woody system, with libc 2.2.5. I have rsync running daily to mirror the Debian archives, mainly for i386 files. The command I use is
