[Bug 1464064] Re: Ubuntu apt repos are not available via HTTPS

2017-12-25 Thread Victoid
I can't believe HTTPS hasn't been switched on in the 2.5 years since this bug was reported. It's a commonsense move that even Linus has made. There are truly no arguments against it. It's farcical to report kernel signatures, but then not provide either the package or the signature over a secure tr

Hello all, After going a bit grey, I found that /sys/class/backlight/toshiba breaks after suspend, but /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight continues to function ('echo $number > backlight' after resume from suspend). Some great folks over at Arch have figured this one out. I have a Toshiba Port

Just to add, I noticed above that the original bug refers to nvidia rather than intel graphics, and the fix I listed is particularly appropriate only for Portege laptops with Intel graphics. The symptoms for intel graphics seems to be identical to that listed in the original bug report. -- You r

I came across this problem with a Wacom CTH-470 in 13.04. (It's recognized as a "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5", which isn't exactly correct.) I have Intel graphics and no nvidia-settings, so I believe the bug is upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, w

Yes, a similar issue has cropped up again in 11.04. I haven't yet figured out what kills the decorator, but it disappears spontaneously (perhaps after suspend/resume?) and can be recovered with "gtk-window- decorator --replace" as mentioned by Bryce. -- You received this bug notification because

Repos do not default to HTTPS, unless you can point to a patch that shows they do. Security depends heavily on defaults decided by maintainers, before it falls to ornate user and administrator decisions. The shift in responsibility is problematic. I don't see how the CVE potential is resolved, almo
