version: Xpra gtk2 client version 2.1.3-r17247 64-bit platform: Linux 4.9.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian

I'm not sure if I'm using the authentication feature correctly, but here's one scenario of recent trouble:

xpra start --bind=auto --auth=pam --start=xfce4-terminal

So far, seems so good ...

xpra attach :1

No opportunity to enter a password, but reasonably quickly the following error messages appeared

2017-11-26 20:07:57,294 Error: authentication failed:
2017-11-26 20:07:57,295  this server requires authentication, please provide a password
2017-11-26 20:07:57,338 Connection lost

The tail of the log file offered some more detail:

I then tried an alternative:

xpra start --bind=auto --auth=password:value=me --start=xfce4-terminal
xpra attach :2 --auth=password:value=me

with the same output to STDERR...

2017-11-26 20:39:44,134 Error: authentication failed:

And this to the log...

A third very different scenario that I tried had a very different failure, so I'll post it in another ticket.

version: Xpra gtk2 client version 2.1.3-r17247 64-bit platform: Linux 4.9.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian

When starting a server as follows:

xpra start --start="gksu /usr/sbin/gparted"

Attaching a client gives no error messages to STDERR or anything of interest in the log (ie. only lines that exist in a normal properly operating connection).

However, what actually happens is awful and stressful:

1] The client grabs control of the entire screen space instead of 800x600, and paints it all black

2] The lower right hand corner of the display does offer the gksu dialog, with a blinking cursor in the input field.

3] No input is echoed to the input field.

4] Input keystrokes are sent to the environment that spawned the client, ie. keystrokes that would go to the spawning terminal are sent there, and keystrokes that would be intercepted by the window manager would be intercepted there.

4.1] However, the xpra client would not release control of the entire visible display (I think in X11 terminology it's called the 'seat').

4.2] Because C-c is being sent to the spawning environment, which was the terminal that issued the xpra attach command, it closes the client and restores the X11 seat's display.

4.3] During experimentation, it was possible to regain control of the display by switching to a different virtual terminal, ie. C-M-F1.

The summary for this ticket was chosen arbitrarily. I'm not sure what the description should be, and there seem to be a few issues at play, some of which may not be critical, but do raise warnings.

First, the version information is unclear. Debian tells me that the installed version is 2.3-20171213r17616-1, but xpra itself says xpra X11 version 2.3-r17613 64-bit.

Now to the ticket itself:

I opened a virtual console on tty6 (C-M-F6), ran startx to start the i3 window manager, opened a console window, started tmux, and from there ...

$xpra start --bind=auto --auth=pam --start=xfce4-terminal

Entering daemon mode; any further errors will be reported to:
/home/me/.xpra/S30645.log
Actual display used: :3
Actual log file name is now: /home/me/.xpra/:3.log

1] Option shadow-fullscreen is listed at /etc/xpra/xpra.conf, but seems to be invalid.

2] The commentary in file /etc/xpra/xpra.conf says that user-local version should be at ~/xpra/xpra.conf, but I gathered from elsewhere that it should be ~/.xpra/... (also,I have a pet peeve about cluttering ~/ ,and the xfreedesktop standard wants ~/.config/.. for user-local configurations.

3] How do I get rid of the message /run/xpra/system ?

Now, continuing to the central problem of this ticket:

At this point, a client window does appear on my screen, but as a totally blank black square. The enveloping window is maneuverable by the i3 window manager, but the interior window process itself does not respond to mouse or cursor commands.

A few attempts to politely pkill -15 xpra didn't work, so I needed to pkill -9 xpra to clean up.

In ticket #1709, I mentioned in passing that I had a critical failure with my X-server. Part of its final resolution may have been to change my xorg input driver 'kbd' to 'evdev'. Would this be relevant for the 'xorg-dummy' package that xpra seems to use?
