[arch-general] firefox crashed, no web access after attempted fix
by Shadrock Uhuru 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

hi everyone i'm running 6.8 current, my problem started when firefox which had been working perfectly suddenly started crashing on startup, i don't know if it was because i shutdown the laptop with to many tab open in firefox, after many google searches i tried creating a new profile and copying overi file from a previous profile the suggested files and directories which gave me a startable firefox, my bookmark sidebar lists my bookmarks, and my addons are displayed on the toolbar, the problem is nothing happens if i type in an address, type something in the search bar or click a bookmark in the sidebar, the rotating arrow doesn't change to a cross , or if i click an addon icon either nothing happens or an empty menu is opened, the next thing i did was to backup my mozilla/firefox folder then removed the original, i sysupgraded, pkg_add -Uu, had to repeat it a couple of time thinking the repositories were not in sync after doing pkg_add -u instead the packages upgraded, i threw in a pkg_clean to tidy things up, then i pkg_delete then pkg_add firefox, i'm still unable to surf the web before or after restoring my backup mozilla/firefox directory, could i have missing libraries of software that firefox needs ? pkg_add firefox installs without a problem, i have pastebined a copy of the directory structure and a copy of the log output when i start firefox with the -p option. fox_directory http://sprunge.us/79hyB7 fox_log_output http://sprunge.us/umVBxr i am currently using netsurf as my browser but i would like firefox up and running again asap any help would be welcomed shadrock

[arch-general] error wiping partition with cryptsetup - device-mapper: reload ioctl on failed:

Hi all, I am using Arch. In the middle of last year I successfully wiped two partitions on my laptop following the instructions here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Drive_preparation#dm-crypt_wi… This year I decided to wipe the remaining partition on the same laptop using the same command command but it fails as below. Any ideas? ~/ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT nvme0n1 259:0 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 1G 0 part /boot ├─nvme0n1p2 259:2 0 50G 0 part │ └─arch-root 254:0 0 50G 0 crypt / ├─nvme0n1p3 259:3 0 700G 0 part ├─nvme0n1p4 259:4 0 176.5G 0 part │ └─arch-home 254:2 0 176.5G 0 crypt /home └─nvme0n1p5 259:5 0 4G 0 part └─swap 254:1 0 4G 0 crypt [SWAP] █▓▒░root@thinkpad-p43s█▓▒░ Wed 13/Jan/2021 08:26:53.073 ~/ cryptsetup open --type plain -d /dev/urandom /dev/nvme0n1p3 to_be_wiped device-mapper: reload ioctl on failed: No such file or directory ~/

[arch-general] 5.10.5 - network card r8169 not activated on cold start?
by David C. Rankin 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

All, Sorry for the lapse in posts, but when Arch changed list delivery to the cloud service, my ISP bounced all mails from the new IP. New issue, after an extended power-outage caused by a rare snow storm in north-east Texas, I had to boot from cold start after the power being out for 2 days. On boot, the network device enp5s0 did not get started. Viewing the logs, the r8169 device was never started. The cold boot log is: Jan 12 07:51:38 valkyrie systemd[1]: Timed out waiting for device /sys/subsystem/net/devices/enp5s0. Jan 12 07:51:38 valkyrie systemd[1]: Dependency failed for dhcpcd on enp5s0. Jan 12 07:51:38 valkyrie systemd[1]: dhcpcd(a)enp5s0.service: Job dhcpcd@enp5s0.service/start failed with result 'dep endency'. Jan 12 07:51:38 valkyrie systemd[1]: sys-subsystem-net-devices-enp5s0.device: Job sys-subsystem-net-devices-enp5s0. device/start failed with result 'timeout'. I have been using this same Arch server for 5-6 years now and I haven't ever had an issue with the device not coming up. Granted for a majority of the last 5 years the box has only been rebooted, save an except for a drive replacement, etc... Since the device was not activated by the kernel, there was no chance of using ip link to start the device. Then on reboot, the device is found and configured without a problem: Jan 12 08:38:16 valkyrie kernel: r8169 0000:05:00.0 enp5s0: renamed from eth0 Jan 12 08:38:19 valkyrie systemd[1]: Starting dhcpcd on enp5s0... Jan 12 08:38:20 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: waiting for carrier Jan 12 08:38:20 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: carrier acquired Jan 12 08:38:20 valkyrie kernel: r8169 0000:05:00.0 enp5s0: Link is Down Jan 12 08:38:20 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: IAID 14:9e:33:19 <snip IPv6 chatter> Jan 12 08:38:24 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: soliciting a DHCP lease Jan 12 08:38:25 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: offered 192.168.6.135 from 192.168.6.17 Jan 12 08:38:25 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: probing address 192.168.6.135/24 Jan 12 08:38:30 valkyrie dhcpcd[535]: enp5s0: leased 192.168.6.135 for 28800 seconds Having never had this problem since the 2015-08-21 install on this box, my question is "is anyone else seeing this, or anything similar, now?" I did not have any issue with the other 4 Arch boxes I brought up after power returned, so, as far as I have seen, this has been limited to the r8169 card. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[arch-general] Darktable: libavif: undefined symbol: I422ToRGBAMatrix
by LuKaRo 08 Jan '21

08 Jan '21

Hi folks, on my up-to-date Arch Linux system, I can't start darktable anymore. The error message is: /usr/bin/darktable: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libavif.so.9: undefined symbol: I422ToRGBAMatrix However, both darktable (darktable-2:3.4.0-2) and libavif (libavif-0.8.4-1) are up-to-date, as well as my entire system. /usr/lib/libavif.so.9 exists and points to libavif.so.9.0.0, which is a regular file. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, LuKaRo

[arch-general] User authentication problems at OpenVPN on ArchLinux
by Jordan Borgner 31 Dec '20

31 Dec '20

Good day everyone. I'm facing a weird problem with my vpn. It fails to authenticate users despite the entered password is correct (copied and pasted). OpenVPN (version 2.5.0 on ArchLinux) itself is serviced with systemd and runs fine. I'm using OpenVPN's auth-pam plugin to authenticate users. You find the configuration- and logfiles below. When trying to log in, I get "User authentication failed" at my client and the following logging. The user was created with useradd and is able to login with ssh as well. There is no pam config for openvpn in /etc/pam.d. But it worked before without it. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this or how to debug pam properly? journalctl -r|grep username =========================== Dec 26 13:42:41 hostname kernel: audit: type=1100 audit(1608986561.263:1183): pid=678 uid=973 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 msg='op=PAM:authentication grantors=? acct="username" exe="/usr/bin/openvpn" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed' Dec 26 13:42:41 hostname audit[678]: USER_AUTH pid=678 uid=973 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 msg='op=PAM:authentication grantors=? acct="username" exe="/usr/bin/openvpn" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed' Dec 26 13:42:41 hostname openvpn[678]: pam_unix(login:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=973 euid=973 tty= ruser= rhost= user=username Dec 26 13:42:41 hostname unix_chkpwd[4160]: password check failed for user (username) /var/log/openvpn.log ==================== ip-addr [username] Peer Connection Initiated with [AF_INET6]ip-addr:52991 ip-addr PUSH: Received control message: 'PUSH_REQUEST' ip-addr Delayed exit in 5 seconds ip-addr SENT CONTROL [username]: 'AUTH_FAILED' (status=1) ip-addr SIGTERM[soft,delayed-exit] received, client-instance exiting server.conf =========== plugin /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugins/openvpn-plugin-auth-pam.so login port 1194 persist-key persist-tun proto udp proto udp6 dev tun ca /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/ca.crt cert /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/issued/manmtr.crt key /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/private/manmtr.key dh /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/dh.pem data-ciphers AES-256-GCM ;cipher AES-256-CBC auth SHA512 reneg-sec 36000 inactive 0 server 192.168.200.0 255.255.255.0 push "route 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0" keepalive 10 36000 status openvpn-status.log log /var/log/openvpn.log verb 4 -- Jordan Borgner
