| Auctus | so i came over to my computer and it said some files failed to download, looked like the lubuntu software updater, then it said the software updates are installed i need to reboot | 06:59 |
|---|---|---|
| Auctus | then i looked at a open terminal window i had, joined to irc | 06:59 |
| Auctus | and my username said "pkexec" half a dozen times, which i didnt type | 07:00 |
| Auctus | does the lubuntu software updater use pkexec for anything? trying to figure out if its a bug or if i have serious security problems :p | 07:00 |
| Auctus | even if it does use it that doesnt really explain why it would type it into my irc client, super suspicious, that | 07:01 |
| Auctus | gonna reinstall either way but thought id investigate first | 07:01 |
| bioterror | I would not be suprised if the updater wants to use pkexec | 07:02 |
| bioterror | but I always just dismis the lubuntu software updater and use apt-get / aptitude | 07:03 |
| Auctus | yeah and i suspect its that but i want to full explain/understand what happened with pkexec being typed into my irc (irssi/screen/ssh to my VPS, from this laptop) | 07:04 |
| Auctus | vps is runnin nothing though but my irc client so i doubt its an issue there, and lubuntu hasnt been reliable on this laptop since 15 came out | 07:08 |
| bioterror | if you have not launched the lubuntu software updater from the same terminal as you did ssh into your VPS, then there should be no messages from the software updater | 07:12 |
| bioterror | but if you did, ofcourse it might prompt some messages into that terminal | 07:12 |
| bioterror | if I understood your problem right | 07:12 |
| Auctus | i definitely did not do anything from that terminal other than IRC | 07:16 |
| Auctus | ssh/irc | 07:16 |
| Auctus | pretty creepy anyway so im gonna rootkit scan and reinstall but thatll make it impossible to figure out what it was | 07:16 |
| penguin1263 | AT&T IS THE PERPETUAL FRUSTRATION MACHINE OF THE FUTURE!!!!! | 07:23 |
| bioterror | penguin1263, okay, but you could chill out a little bit | 07:26 |
| penguin1263 | it fucked up my lubuntu server | 07:26 |
| bioterror | Auctus, some people has complained a little about | 07:27 |
| bioterror | !language | 07:27 |
| ubottu | The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 07:27 |
| Auctus | bioterror: complained about what? | 07:31 |
| bioterror | Auctus, after upgrade from 14 to 15 it has not been that great experience | 07:32 |
| Auctus | ive had a few issues, not a ton, but the few are annoying | 07:33 |
| Auctus | issue 1] brightness control doesnt work on boot, but works after laptop has been put to sleep and resumed | 07:33 |
| Auctus | issue 2] if you put the laptop to sleep with firefox running, on resuming firefox uses ~99%CPU most times, have to close firefox, wait a sec, and re-open to shut down CPU use | 07:34 |
| Auctus | and even if its not using all the CPU, the fan still goes 100% | 07:34 |
| Auctus | those are the only two really noticable ones | 07:34 |
| Auctus | which i wouldnt notice on a desktop because itd never go to sleep | 07:35 |
| bioterror | I have also problems with brightness controls with one Acer laptop | 07:35 |
| Auctus | this is one one of those hp thinkpad clones, HP Compaq 6910p | 07:42 |
| bioterror | couple of days complainer was with the 6730 ;) | 07:58 |
