Subject: incorrect icons on Kubuntu desktop
Message-ID: <20180806183312.531e75e0@shlomo1.solomon>

I have a few links to applications such as wireshark, krdc, Virtualbox
on my Kubuntu desktop.

For some reason, today all of these links no longer have the correct
icon but "look like" text files. Strangely, in each icon I can see a
"preview" of some text.

If I right-click > properties I see the correct icon.

If I drag one of them to the panel, the icon appears correctly on the
panel.

When I login, I can see the correct icons on the desktop for about one
second and then they all "magically" change to look like text file icons
again. 

Any idea what is causing this?

Answering my own post - in case this can help others.
I found the problem. In Desktop Folder Settings, I un-checked Preview
Thumbnails and everything is back to normal.

I just wanted to recommend a fantastic KDE service menu that I just
installed - adds over 150 right-click menu items. Of course this can be
customized since most people will only find some of them useful :-).

Message-ID: <CAD_ZK678k5D9WreACk243ji_jrKPF+7h22K517tyOYwWqrjZrg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

I'd like to try translating a Linux related magazine that uses Scribus  [1]
as their DTP ( I get the original Scribus file in English).

I know this issue was addressed a few years back and I wanted to know where
things are right now with Scribus Hebrew Support...

Thanks,

I use single-click to select in Dolphin and Krusader. But in ROOT mode
krusader I have not succeeded in changing the double-click to
single-click. I tried all the options in the panel selection mode

Subject: Mageia msec equivalent
Message-ID: <20180812105427.6adbeb98@shlomo1.solomon>

Does anyone know of anything equivalent to Mageia's msec on
Ubuntu/Kubuntu?

For those not familiar with Mageia, I'm referring to a set of scripts,
cron jobs and programs with a very nice GUI to handle, change and audit
various security settings. 
Just a few examples:
 - allow a specific user to do certain tasks
 - report/or not when certain settings are changed
 - set permissions for specific files and/or types of files
      - and optionally "enforce" these permissions by resetting any
        un-authorized changes (done by a nightly cron job) 
 - extensive and configurable logging and reporting

Message-ID: <18628541534328718@sas1-02732547ccc0.qloud-c.yandex.net>

Hello all linuxers,


I am writing a LSM kernel module which had register  hook to mmap()

I need to know whether this call came from elf loader or other code path.

I know that I can print stack of function using dump_stack(), in this case I should 
seek within kmsg buffer.

I see that kmsg_dump_get_buffer() function can get kernel messages but it is mot clear for me how I can get parameters 
of this functions

Subject: Hebrew file names in Libreoffice
Message-ID: <20180815190130.1febfcac@shlomo1.solomon>

On my new Kubuntu 18.04 box, Libreoffice will not open files with
Hebrew names - says file does not exist. 

On a Windows 10 machine Libreoffice has no problem with the same files. 

And a really strange thing - if I run Libreoffice from the command line
instead of clicking on an icon or the KDE menu, it works fine.

I thought this was a utf-8 problem, but my locale seems to be correct.

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

What am I missing?

Thanks.

I did try adding Hebrew locale but that did not help and also had an
un-expected side effect - Some programs (for example smbc) ran with
a Hebrew interface.

BTW - on my Mageia boxes, with en_US.UTF-8 Libreoffice works perfectly.

After more research, I'm pretty sure this is a KDE-Libreoffice
interaction problem, but don't know how to solve it. Here's a summary of
what I know and tried - #6 is really interesting/strange.

1 - click on a Hebrew file name - libreoffice says file does not exist.
2 - click on Libreoffice icon + try to open a Hebrew name - same result
3 - run libreoffice from command line - works OK
4 - sudo libreoffice also works OK but that's a BAD solution
5 - created a KDE "link to application" and chose "run in terminal" -
libreoffice says file does not exist
6 - created a KDE "link to application" and chose "run in terminal"  +
"run as a different user" - KDE asks for a password and libreoffice
works OK.    NOTE: As the "other" user I chose my regular username!!!
7 - I read that the libreoffice-kde can cause problems so I
un-installed it, but that didn't help (and it made a mess of the file
open/save dialogue). 



As I already wrote, locale is set to en_US.UTF-8

solomon at shlomo1:~$ localectl
   System Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8
       VC Keymap: n/a
      X11 Layout: us
       X11 Model: pc105

solomon at shlomo1:~$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

BTW - is there any significance to the fact that some of the above
lines say  "en_US.UTF-8"  and others en_US.UTF-8?

Any help would be appreciated

After searching for any file that seems related to locale, I deleted
the following files (after saving a backup - just in case): 
~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh
~/.config/plasma-localerc

They were re-generated on login. 

So it certainly WAS a KDE problem, but I have no idea why this solved
the problem.

At this point, if you run libreoffice from the command line, does it
then work?

Those with the quotes are inferred. 

For me, the problem was that some of those lines said "en_IL.UTF-8",
which is a locale that does not exist.

Did you run 'diff' on the two plasma-locale* files from before and
after deletion & regeneration?
If yes, can you please share the results with the curious among us?

Why do you say that en_IL.UTF-8 does not exist? 

solomon at shlomo1:~$ localectl list-locales|grep en_IL
en_IL
en_IL.utf8

And in any case, you should be able to correct any problem with: 

localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.utf8

Probably not essential, but I personally also added the following
lines to ~/.bashrc
       export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
       export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
       export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

The original files (which I deleted):
~/.config/plasma-localerc
[Formats]
LANG=en_IL

[Translations]
LANGUAGE=en_US

~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh
export LANG=en_IL

 module ?
Message-ID: <14841341534429470@myt5-c56023d17c6b.qloud-c.yandex.net>

Having the kernel stack is limited to 4K, how can I know how many of this 4K was used
before mu function X()  is called ?

I need to extract 512 bytes of some data from storage using vfs_getxattr().  I can call for kmalloc or just use buffer on stack.

But how can assess whether I can safely do this or not ?

What was the stack utilization till my function was called, how much space is left?

And while I may take a diff of SP and Stack segment register to know stack utilization to the current moment ( I wonder whether if there are some kernel macro exist?)  I do knot know how to calculate future consumption of stack memory down the vfs call chain.

Regards,
Lev

Subject: problem with ownership of files on Samba share
Message-ID: <20180817105806.7d100635@shlomo1.solomon>

Since moving from Mageia5 to Kubuntu 18.04 I have an annoying problem.

I have a Raspberry PI  file server running Samba and sharing PI-PUBLIC.
Files are created (and owned) by various users. 

This is a mixed Linux and Windows network. 
All Linux computers on the network (including the PI) have the same
users and UIDs, to prevent confusion about file ownership.
In the PI-PUBLIC section of smb.conf on the PI, all the relevant users
are listed as valid users = 

In Mageia I could mount the share with either of the
following /etc/fstab entries (note that pi is defined in /etc/hosts): 

//pi/PI-PUBLIC  /mnt/PI-PUBLIC  cifs
username=solomon,password=mypassword,rw,user 0 0 

//pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs
user,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0

But in Kubuntu, all the files "seem" to be owned by the wrong user.
If I access /mnt/PI-PUBLIC in Dolphin, all the files "seem" to be owned
by root.
If I access smb://solomon at pi/PI-PUBLIC/  then all the files "seem" to
be owned by solomon.

It might be a permissions problem on the "kde-link" file.

I haven't used KDE for years now, so I don't know where to look. In unity,
all launchers are in the ~/.config directory.

Thanks for your input, but as I already wrote, deleting and
re-generating the following files solved the problem:
~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh
~/.config/plasma-localerc
So it was certainly a "locale" problem.

BTW - from my experience, kde-link file permissions are rwxr--r-- and
that's the case with mine too :-)

Answering my own post with a solution, but I don't know WHY this works.

I discovered that if I access   fish://pi/media/PUBLIC/  in Dolphin the
file ownerships are shown correctly.

Can anyone tell me why this works when the following 2 don't?

> If I access /mnt/PI-PUBLIC in Dolphin, all the files "seem" to be

> If I access smb://solomon at pi/PI-PUBLIC/  then all the files "seem" to

Maybe the Dolphin mount (via kio-smb I guess?) runs the mount command with
parameters like uid=$USER,gid=$USER ?

Have you compared the options of the two mounts when they're both mounted
with "mount | grep PI-PUBLIC" ?

I think that in each case diffrent libraries are envolved. In the second
case it's cifs (what version?).

I think you're pointing me in the right direction, but still missing
something.
Here's the output of mount | grep PI-PUBLIC

solomon at shlomo1:~$ mount | grep PI-PUBLIC
//pi/PI-PUBLIC on /mnt/PI-PUBLIC type cifs
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,vers=default,cache=strict,username=solomon,domain=,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=10.0.0.51,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1,user)

uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid    seemed strange, so I added my
actual uid and gid to /etc/fstab. So instead of:

//pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs
user,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0

I now have:
//pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs
user,uid=500,gid=500,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0 

The result: Both of the following incorrectly show all files as owned
by solomon

smb://solomon at pi/PI-PUBLIC/
/mnt/PI-PUBLIC/

Before the change,   /mnt/PI-PUBLIC/  showed all files owned by root.

But   fish://pi/media/PUBLIC/    still  shows correct ownership

When dealing with cifs there are 3 versions (maybe more) of the protocol:
1.1, 2 and 3. I think that in each case u use different version.

Subject: Patch management tools?
Message-ID: <1535489388.30550.3.camel@zak.co.il>

I have a project, which uses a JavaScript library.
I need to patch the library as part of integrating it into the project.

Once in a while I need to upgrade to the most recently released version
of the library i.e. reapply my patches. The library is available as a
git repository from which I 'git pull" updates as needed.

While I can reapply my patches by using 'git rebase', I am curious to
know if there any specialized tools which assist in this process. Like
the 'quilt' tool used by Debian package maintainers to deal with a very
similar use case.

There is https://github.com/git-series/git-series but it appears to be
unmaintained.
