    Flash player doesn't work in Chrome and Opera

    ¿Which chromium version do you have? Because if I quote the port description: We have this post called "Saying Goodbye to Our Old Friend NPAPI": http://blog.chromium.org/2013/09/saying ... npapi.html NPAPI version of flash won't work even on linux, google ditched NPAPI in favor of pepper...

    US national vulnerability database hacked

    Security is not about making a totally unusable environment ... it's about adding layers of measures to mitigate the damage that can be done; so a proper countermeasure can be taken in the event of a intrusion. Regards.

    UFS2 SU+J & gmirror, a good idea?

    Hi !! I'm here again to ask a question about this particular topic I couldn't find information about on the internet. I recently switched my ZFS system to a UFS2 SU+J setup, as I have a spare disk, I though it would be "cute" to have a fall-back disk and a little boost in performance; So I...

    Keyboard Filtering/Injecting

    Sorry, but if your requirement is to go at the driver level, then that's the answer ... anything else is wanting a toaster to wash your clothes. Not harder per se, but is an added responsibility ... if your userspace binary fails, you can re-launch it in a heart beat; if your kernel-space...

    Keyboard Filtering/Injecting

    So you'll actually go at the driver level ... you could make some kind of "rootkit" (there's a book on it, actually) or actually go easier and replace the driver with your own. In any case that does require root privileges and are major words because of the worries of a panic and the...

    E17 + XComposite

    @graudeejs: 1) In the link I left they kinda try to explain using these arguments: Speed → This argument surprises me, because even bizarre mobile devices can poke some additional KBs more without an issue (config files are not usually that long and numerous); doing a parse with...

    Keyboard Filtering/Injecting

    If your application runs on X, then there's no problem → http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4037230/global-hotkey-with-x11-xlib/4037579 If we are talking about TTY stuff, well ... I never did it, but it shouldn't need root privileges also: the answer lies somewhere in the tmux code Regards.

    E17 + XComposite

    Before the Wizard? None afaik. From a terminal editor like vim? well, e17 uses binary configuration files ... Regards.

    Newer gcc. To be or not to be?

    Comparable or slightly fast results on most benchmarks and really slow compared to gcc in others (due to lack of OpenMP) In any case, if your code is good it will compile on both compilers: test your code with both In this *particular* case (GCC/Clang) the binaries seem compatible, so you...

    E17 + XComposite

    For anyone wondering ... the problem of "it takes too long to start" comes from this: Untick it; atm upstream marked the bug as WONTFIX so don't hold your breath. Regards

    Clang -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ Should enable C++ 11

    Not really *full* support but yeah, the support is quite good ... the clang site seems down atm so I couldn't check (I haven't seen the 3.2 goodies yet) There you have a grasp on the actual support → http://web.archive.org/web/20120922231808/http://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html And for the...

    DDoS protection?

    There's nohing you can do to stop it, but as anything in computer (in)security: you can mitigate it. A good point of start is trying to determine which service is being attacked and find a pattern of attack (for example, with VERY simple bots they could be using wininet and fetching a specific...

    Terminal based development environment

    IMHO there are not good choices right now. If you really need to, you could do with just vim mostly because it has decent syntax highlighting, a somewhat working completion plugin and you can invoke CMake (the build system used by KDevelop) pretty much from there, outside and IDE and X. I've...

    Questions about Enlightenment porting

    Well, I took a look at the code and It's actually implemented, here it doesn't work because of this: * cpufreq module actually looks for dev.cpu.X.freq, but it's unable to "work" because it lacks privileges. * temperature module looks into the hw.acpi.thermal.X.temperature sysctl, which is...

    btrfs in FreeBSD

    It's being developed by Oracle, it's nonportable, has a lot of design flaws, its unstable even in it's own native platform, is GPL'ed (with the difficulties that this poses to have it commited to -HEAD) and we have something that's actually the opposite to all that. WHY, just WHY someone in...

    Questions about Enlightenment porting

    @shepper > I installed from ports a couple of days ago (compiled with base gcc, because clang - which is the CC on CURRENT - emits something that causes runtime misbehavior around evas ), and this is a fresh run with no old configs of release e17. I had these applets/modules enabled by...

    Questions about Enlightenment porting

    Hi people ! I recently did some changes in my system and wanted to go something more lightweight than KDE (what I normally use) but without losing some aesthetics, so I went with E17. I saw some widgets not behaving nice (cpufreq, mixer, temperature, and such) and thought that it could be a...

    Recent botnet installed as root

    Well, @kleinart. Post a binary or do your own analisys. Don't assume that we will explain with no binary at all (in fact, it's actually better if you give it a shot by yourself. If you don't know the tools, you could ask). Analyzing what syscalls are used, with what, which files are touched...
