Dear M and friends,
I tried today to play with the rc1
Following issues:
1. in attempting to su to grml to run grml-x, get "cannot find file grml" error 2. if I run grml-x as root, all seems to be well, but then the error "priority is -1 instead of requested -0" then nothing 3. if I change to bash, and run grml-x as grml, all seems to be well, I get the note creating x-authority, then the errno111 no reply from xserver
In other words, in grml 0.9, then grml 1.0, x was easy, grml-x -module radeon fluxbox, and x appeared within seconds.
In the current release candidate, I am convinced that either I am stupid, or there is a problem with grml-x, or both.
Best, Martin

Martin, are we talking about grml 1.1-rc1, right?
- in attempting to su to grml to run grml-x, get "cannot find file
grml" error
What exactly are you running? "su -u grml" works fine for me.
- if I run grml-x as root, all seems to be well, but then the error
"priority is -1 instead of requested -0" then nothing 3. if I change to bash, and run grml-x as grml, all seems to be well, I get the note creating x-authority, then the errno111 no reply from xserver
On which console are you trying to run grml-x?

Dear M,
Thanks - works perfectly now -
when did the "-u" switch become necessary, and what does it do, man su does not tell me, and as you know, I represent your ignorant noob contingent.
This is the danger in grml, that since none of the other debian boutique distros are as well organised and flexible, those of us who need stuff "right now" during the install need grml.
The downside is that your normal clientele is far better educated than I am.
I appreciate your patience.
Best, M

It's a bug you brought up to us. :) Thanks for that, it's because we switched the alias for su. Expect to find a "normal" working su in the stable release.

Dear M,
Any ideas on the vmsplice issue? Does it affect grml users?
Best, M

In the live-cd: no.
On the harddisk installation: yes. Read:
http://grml.supersized.org/archives/278-kernel-2.6.23-grml-addressing-CVE-20...
for details. The fixed kernels are in grml's repository.

Dear Mika,
Why are you so much faster than me? TZ difference or real austrian coffee?
Thanks for the kernel image - you have saved us all a lot of patching and recompiling.
Wow -

Working in the last days nearly fulltime on the new release. ;) The root exploit delayed our stable release: http://grml.supersized.org/archives/277-new-stable-release-work-in-progress....
Thanks to help by Gebi we could finish work on the grml-kernel and now we are working on finalizing the new grml versions. Buildsystem is running on 100% right now. :)

You are welcome.
