kirk was referring to the "readelf" utility. devx doesn't have 32-bit libs, you still need 32-bit sfs for that.Anniekin wrote:so if we have devx, we dont need slacko 32 sfs?kirk wrote:This is also included in the devx sfs.
The whole point of running network programs as "spot" is so that if these programs are broken and get controlled by someone else, they can only see what "spot" can see - which isn't hopefully not much (mostly the Downloads folder and at most the boot partition). If you allow "all other users" to read off your other partitions, there isn't much security in that anymore - a malware running as "spot" can now uploads anything in your other partition tooBarbol wrote:I was wondering about that.. how does allowing read-only access for all other users impacts security in fatdog? have any effect on the spot user?jamesbond wrote:It is a trade-off between security and usability.
I am speechlessSomehow it affects the greeter, so the X session cannot be started. I was only able to login as root in the console (but the root account is disable by default in ubuntu).On another note, I'm really surprised if you tell me that Ubuntu will fail to boot because of this (I haven't used Ubuntu for years now).
610 and 611 has the same kernel so yeah going back to 610 is unlikely to help. 601 on the other hand has a different kernel.mini-jaguar wrote:But I just "downgraded" to 6.0.1 and now it works like a charm, boots up and shuts down lightning fast.
You can also try the Fatdog UEFI iso I posted in another thread - it has another 3.4.24 kernel, and see if it can shutdown properly.
610/611 shutdown is slower, because I added "spindown disk" and wait 2-seconds after that before it really shuts down. I reckon it is worth the wait to ensure that any disks (=of the spinning platter type) will save their internal caches to the disk and shutdown gracefully before power is removed. Before that, every time I shutdown with USB disks connected, I heard a very alarming noise and I always worried whether it didn't get the chance to save its internal cache.
