[Bug 232450] Re: Test for installed packages in cfengine is broken
Any chance that the version of cfengine2 will be updated for Hardy?

I do understand though, that this might have to go into backports if it's not a security issue. I'll check when I get a chance if this has been requested yet.

[Bug 148534] Re: User can shutdown machine even if others are logged in
Has anyone come up with a workaround for this? Who do I have to beg to upgrade this from "wishlist?" Having entire labs where students accidentally shut down the systems is extemely annoying.

As far as I can tell, policy kit is supposed to take care of this. There are options to require an admin password when other users are logged in or for any shutdown. Unfortunately, none of those are currently being honored. I'm guessing this needs to be fixed upstream, but it could be an Ubuntu-specific problem. We have lots of remote logins to our lab systems and having the console user (even accidentally) shut down or reboot the system causes a lot of havoc. --- Markus A.

[Bug 190737] Re: Hi load average using in 8.04a4 NIS/Autofs setup copied from 7.10
I'm also seeing the log entries. We're about to deploy Ubuntu in an environment with a good number of users (about 3300) and a couple of hundred desktops.All their home areas and a large number of other file systems are automounted. I haven't seen the slowdown and high load averages yet, but I've also not "loosed" Ubuntu Hardy on the masses yet. Does anyone know the status of this bug? I'd really appreciate it. -- Hi load average using in 8.04a4 NIS/Autofs setup copied from 7.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190737 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 148534] Re: User can shutdown machine even if others are logged in
Theoretically this should disable rebooting from within the desktop environment without authentication: polkit-action --set-defaults-active org.freedesktop.hal.power- management.reboot auth_admin However, it doesn't work. I also don't think this should be a "wishlist" item. It is a vital aspect of any multi-user system. Allowing unprivileged users to reboot or shut down a system breaks all Unix/Linux paradigms. I strongly urge for this bug to be elevated in status. Imagine a lab full of systems that are used by the console users as well as by other users logging in from home or other systems via ssh. The console user can now completely destroy the work of any remotely logged in users.

[Bug 148534] Re: User can shutdown machine even if others are logged in
This all said - does anyone have a fix or workaround? I really need to keep desktop users from simply shutting down or rebooting machines. I know they can just push the power button, but I'd like to at least avoid accidental reboots/shutdowns!

[Bug 653265] [NEW] ivview (inventor-tools) hangs on right click
Public bug reported: The ivview binary appears to hang when right clicking anywhere in the window. The mouse gets captured by the window and you can no longer use any menus, etc. An strace simply hangs at that point. I have tried this on two 64-bit Lucid systems, one with the NVIDIA drivers, one with ATI fglrx drivers with the same result. Can anyone else reproduce this behavior? Oct 1 16:49:47 There are no suspicious log messages and ivview does not core dump. We had no problems with ivview when running on Jaunty. Any insight/help would be appreciated. Let me know if there is any additional information I can provide. ** Affects: inventor (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ivview (inventor-tools) hangs on right click https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653265 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
