OpenSUSE Install :: 11.3 Security Update Will Break Adobe AIR / Tweetdeck
Apr 4, 2011
The libxml2 update specified by CVE-2010-4494 causes a notification that it will break Adobe AIR and TweetDeck on my machine.How can I blacklist this update so it won't keep showing up in the Updater applet?The applet says I should go into Yast and manually apply the update. When I do that and tell it not to apply the update, Yast exits and the Updater applet just tells me the update is still pending. I want to get rid of the update at least temporarily until Adobe fixes the dependency (assuming they ever do).
This is a major problem for me as I clearly don't intend to uninstall TweetDeck and AIR just for some security patch. Why didn't openSUSE test this patch for AIR compatibility?

Today is my first day with ubuntu and I'm trying to figure out how to install Adobe Air and TweetDeck but can't get anything to work at all.
Is there a guide somewhere to do this with Ubuntu 9.1?

So I was happily using tweetdeck on Adobe Air in my Ubuntu 9.10 x64 installation when it suddenly stopped. It now reports a series of errors. First I get a pop up that says. "You are trying to connect to an unverified server s3.amazonaws.com (on port 443). Do you trust this server, and want to go ahead with the connection? - view certificate - This Session - Never"
Selecting any option makes no difference and takes me to the second error. "Ooops, TweetDeck can't find your data. TweetDeck is having trouble using some of your passwords that are stored securely on your machine. Clicking Submit will clear this data so that you continue to use TweetDeck. Please note that you will have to add your accounts to TweetDeeck again. - OK"
I then click OK many times. Eventually I get the third error; "Sorry, Adobe AIR is having a problem running on this computer. It looks like your computer is one of a very small number of computers that don't play well with Adobe AIR. We're actively working with Adobe on this, and it would really help us if you would let us know that you're having trouble by opening a ticket at http://support.tweetdeck.com/tickets/new - OK"
I then click OK many times and get a blank Tweetdeck. Nothing works. I can not setup an account or even load the settings pane. I can "close" it, but the icon in the top bar stays and I cannot remove it till I reboot. I've uninstalled tweetdeck. Then Adobe AIR. Then re-installed both and I get the same error.

I downloaded Adobe Air, both the rpm and the .bin versions. First I tried the rpm, it went through the motions of installing but just disappeared. then I tied the .bin, got tot the installer, accepted the license, entered my root password, but it stopped installing with "an error occurred. Adobe AIR could not be installed. Install either Gnome Keyring or KDE KWallet before installing Adobe AIR". I opened Kwallet and tried again, but to no avail. I am running OS11.4 64 bit. What can I do to get this thing working?

This gets better and better. First I find out the branded version of Firefox can't do a right click "save page as" (although it can with CTRL-S), now I discover it can't download TweetDeck from that program's Web site. Click on the button to download TweetDeck, it says "Installing TweetDeck" but nothing happens.
I'm going to dropkick the branded Firefox to the curb and install the regular Mozilla version. It's more up to date anyway. I ran the Mozilla version for some time on 11.0 until I installed 11.3 the other day, so I'll live without "integration" that doesn't work worth a ****.

I noticed a very very high cpu usage on my webserver. All four CPUs were running on 100%.
Top shows several perl processes from apache that run for a long time, with a high %CPU.
Since the server was fc10, I did a fresh installation to fc13, and the fresh installation didn't have this issue. Then I loaded back all the user-data, and it started again.
Several, 4, 6, 8, ... 100 perl processes from apache.
lsof -p with the pid of such a process
Code:
The estabilished connection is sometimes "proud2pirate.com" wich is a non-existing domain.

If root is disabled by default, how is it possible that someone managed to SSH into my computer using root? I never enable/set password for root, it's always left as the default as per a fresh install and I always use sudo for any admin tasks.Auth.logFirst there are a whole load of failed attempts then...

How can I make the security applet stop showing an update for firefox 3.5.9? I have a more recent version installed from mozilla repo: firefox 3.6. The mozilla repo already has a higher priority (95 instead of 99), so I don't know what to do.

Running Ubuntu 10.04 I noticed my hard disc rumbling for longer than normal and louder. Not doing anything demanding to cause hard disk activity like this so I was suspicious so I checked my process list with 'top' command in the console terminal. At the top was mount.ntfs running. Eventually it stopped running after 20 seconds or so. At the time I have not been accessing NTFS filesystems, but I do have them. I have a dual boot Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7. In Ubuntu I've mounted the Windows main C drive and on the same hard disk a partitioned drive for sharing files between the OSs. I know mount.ntfs is a standard program but was it being run on my machine, instigated externally here? Was the running of mount.ntfs an attempt from outside to hack into Ubuntu and the mounted Windows areas of my machine via a backdoor connection or vulnerability? I've restarted my machine since then. Are there any logs I can check for malicious attempts to break in?

I have probably ranted so much about not being able to remove Ubuntu, how-ever I believe I have found a break-through, allowing me to once again install Windows XP onto my laptop.I was looking through the Microsoft/Windows website for something relating to XP, and I stumbled upon this bad-boy...Apparently it's an .iso for Windows XP! So I read over it and without hesitation, I downloaded it...I was then referred to something that was actually installed with Ubuntu called'Start-Up Disk Creator', which allows me to make an .iso bootable from a pen-drive...
So, because I recently re-installed Ubuntu (It broke after trying to install a game..) via Pen-Drive, I used the Universal USB Creator on the Ubuntu Website and it is quite similar to this..I will keep posted on my possible break-through on removing Ubuntu

In OpenOffice spreadsheet, using the Page break preview you should be able to move the thick lines that indicate the separation between pages. Some versions ago you could do it normally. But now it's impossible. You can just move the thick line that indicates the limit of the print area.Has anybody noticed this? Is there any solution? In Ooo for Windoze it's possible, but I prefer not to use it unless is absolutely necessary.

I just got a pop up that said that there is a Firefox Ubdate that I do not have the authority to install. It gives a link of www.firefox.com to go to for the latest firefox. I checked the Update manager. No update. All of Mozilla links in google say Mozilla. I feel sure this is an attempt to install malware. It came up when I went to cnet and I guess I shoule include a picture of it. Does anybody have any experience with this?
I went on to read cnet and the first article was about major add servers serving up adds that automaticly install malware. I guess this was a case of that. I had addblocker disabled at the time but noscript active. Looks to me like having noscript saved me an infection. Be careful out there.

Installing TweetDeck is not that complicated, but if you have a 64-bit install of Lucid Lynx, you'll face a little hurdle in the form of Adobe Air.You see, Adobe Air only has a 32-bit version and you can't just install the .deb file found on the website and wait for everything to work fine.All the information to install Adobe Air and TweetDeck on a 64-bit machine is freely available on the net. I didn't find all the information in one place so that's the reason for this howto. It's my first howto, so I'm looking forward to your feedback so I can make it as perfect as possible.
Most of this information is taken from OMG! Ubuntu's guide on installing Adobe Air for Ubuntu 64-bit. In fact, there are just two steps that are different.Installing TweetDeckGo to TweetDeck's desktop download page here and click on the Install TweetDeck button. Now just follow the on screen prompts and you should be done.When the TweetDeck download asks you to save or open the file, you could choose to save the file especially if you have a slow internet connection. That way if something isn't working right, you can save yourself some time by just double-clicking the .air file to install TweetDeck next time.

I just installed a bunch of updates, and found Adobe Flash was suddenly broken. Both Chrome and Firefox report a missing plugin, even though Flash had been working perfectly with the flashplugin-nonfree package installed. So I uninstalled this package, and tried to manually download and install the package from Adobe's site, only to find they only offer 32-bit binaries, which appear to be incompatible with my 64-bit system.Has anyone else run into this problem? Why would an update suddenly break this functionality? How can I repair it?

I was wondering if anyone could answer my question. For some reason I've been trying to update my flash player and every time I try and do this from the terminal it tells me that the command can't be found, even though the zip file that contains the update is executable and my PATH has been set to include the directory that said file is in. I am running ubuntu 11 .04 and here [URL]...If there is any other way that I can execute the update?

I can no longer open TweetDeck either from the desktop shortcut or menu.I tried reinstalling it to see if that would fix it & after install the program ran fine but after shutting it down & trying to restart it from the shortcut icon/menu it says starting but does not complete & would not restart again.The only change to my computer was earlier I had installed Samba to access Vista network shares. Would this be causing a problem opening TweetDeck?Anyone any idea how I might get TweetDeck to work properly?I will keep trying to fix this (tricky when I do not know what the cause is!-I have googled but no reference found yet) but I am most grateful for help(meantime I am using Gwibber to tweet- but I much prefer TweetDeck & would really like it working properly in my dualboot Fedora14).
