On rosetta, the only thing I know is it was discovered a looong time ago ;-) [20:33] i know how to submit suggested translations in rosetta, and that's it [20:35] eeek! I ran 'sudo apt-get build-dep seahorse'... and it wants to remove gnupg2! [20:35] and kleopatra... [20:35] hggdh: should I report the FTBFS on llvm in debian or launchpad? [20:36] diakopter, if it is an Ubuntu package, on LP [20:36] (and it seems so) [20:36] debian experimental has llvm_2.4-1~exp1 [20:37] and we have ~exp1ubuntu2, so there is at least one local change [20:37] hggdh: ahh... okay. I understand, now. thanks for your help :) [20:40] maco, I am looking now at the trunk code. I think this gets generated there [20:41] yeah dtchen said he thought the .po files were coming from upstream. that still leaves me wondering the scope of the changes necessary [20:44] maco, it seems that after you make the change to the string (in the source code) it will be reflected under the ./po directory by the basic build process [20:45] yes, it is built during autoconf time [21:01] maco, under ./po, make update-po [21:02] and you will get the seahorse.pot [21:02] and then i edit that? [21:03] well... poor me, not sure. This is as far as I went. But the .pot is generated from the source code, so I guess you would change in the source [21:03] and then update-po [21:04] where is the string you want defined? [21:04] * hggdh never did translation [21:05] except, long time ago, for pgp-international [21:05] are there any plans to have Xorg stop displaying garbage>?

[21:08] hggdh: im trying to change the base string, not the translation, though [21:08] hence the confusion [21:09] can I tag it as "epicfail" since it seems it is present on ALL cards (nvidia, intell AND readeon)?

Perhaps it does not affect ALL laptops out there [21:13] I have i915, and something recent /have to check/ [21:13] maco, yes. You change the base, then you run {cd ./po; make update-po} and you get your brand new .pot [21:13] and i was making a joke about the bug saying it happens on radeons and you saying "ati, nvidia, and intel" as if radeons were made by all 3 [21:14] hggdh: but the .pot isnt in the source package, so how does that factor into a debdiff? [21:14] or are there no debdiffs involved in this case? [21:15] there should be, since you are changing the source. But, in this case, the folks at rosetta will have to finish up the additional translations before you can build the package again (I guess, I am not sure how we do local translations in Ubuntu) [21:17] so -- and still guessing -- you would provide the POT to rosetta, translations would be done, and you would get them and then debdiff [21:17] there has to be some official doc on how this is done...

[22:24] yes, it does seem very similar to yours [22:24] hggdh: are you kidding me: I can walk up to a password-locked terminal of coworker, move mouse, and see secret documents. or son can walk up to dads locked station, move mouse, and see hardcore pri0n [22:24] its like the definition of security exposure [22:24] show it, then it will be accepted as a security issue [22:24] hggdh: I belive the other gazilion people commenting there did show it already :) what more is needed? [22:26] random parts of pixmap / texture / whatever memory at shown 1) at random 2) when showing password input for locked station [22:26] LimCore, do you run KDE? [22:27] this does not happen to me under gnome [22:27] I seen this moslty on kde, but also on gnome (8.10 clean install) [22:27] no wait, ok this was gnome too [22:28] I never saw it on Gnome [22:29] and -- if you feel strongly about that, you could change it to a security exposure. I think it might be a *potential* privacy issue, but I am unsure if it is a security one [22:30] if it is privacy then it is also security, no? [22:30] oh oh [22:31] no. privacy and security (although some times they go together) are very different things [22:31] if i lock screen and close the lid (so it suspends) before it finishes activating the screensaver, when i resume itll show my desktop for about 3 seconds til i move the mouse and remind it that it was supposed to be activating the screensaver [22:31] security is superset of it imho [22:31] maco: here you see [22:32] the other way around, LimCore. Privacy is one aspect looked at on Security [22:32] so many people have this bug.. for year(s) lol... fail :( [22:32] LimCore: when bugs are marked security bugs, it means remote-exploit-possible, usually [22:32] hggdh: er, thats the right way around [22:32] hggdh: if security is the superset, then privacy is part of security [22:32] ugh! [22:32] hggdh: then better provide different security flags [22:32] LimCore: not for years for me. only with jaunty [22:32] security-exploit [22:32] and security-expostion or something? [22:32] When a bug has been submited in an old release for a package that's not in the repos anymore (removed from Debian repos), can we close the bug? [22:33] maco: I first seen this bug afair on debian in like 2007 mid [22:33] loic-m: if its not reproducible in the current version [22:33] actualy! [22:33] then this bug was on gnome, hggdh (about screensaver) [22:33] yeah i was using gnome [22:33] i only started using kde yesterday [22:33] I did not say it was not.

[22:37] hggdh: should I make separate sub bug of this MASTER and describe there privacy exposure aspect? [22:37] LimCore, you can also state your case at #ubuntu-hardened [22:37] wait hold on [22:37] it says released on jaunty [22:37] lemme check the date because as i said this was over a month ago [22:38] yes, and ScottK was suggesting a SRU [22:38] oh so i should say that since i could read my email for about 3-5 seconds before logging in, it should be SRU'd? [22:38] but I certainly would not call it an epic exposure. [22:38] no [22:39] heh im confused. what do y'all want me to do? [22:39] LimCore: or did you want me to write the underpants gnome comment? [22:39] If you can see what's on the screen, then this raises the ante [22:39] (joking) [22:40] * hggdh just wishes happiness to maco [22:40] maco: confirm that this happens as well on gnome, and that on GNOME you where able to see the private emails on a LOCKED station [22:41] ok commented [22:42] thx === quassel28 is now known as maco [22:50] LimCore, nice user case ;-) [22:53] hggdh: what usecase? [22:53] on the bug [22:53] or in the bug [22:53] ;) [22:53] ah, i give up on this quassel thing. too many places full of text. back to irssi. brb [22:54] haha [22:55] no quassel anymore? [22:55] no [22:55] there were TWO panes showing texts and i dont know why [22:56] to be sure you read it, perhaps? [22:56] and i couldnt /wc when Nickserv started talking to me [22:58] tried right-clicking and it started asking about buffers and then i didnt know what buffers had to do with the little list on the side and so back to the comfort of irssi [22:59] heh. Myself, I stay with xchat [23:48] hggdh: attached video [23:50] good, this shows the screen with trash -- but it does not show a security/privacy issue...
