The absolute state of gahnoo slash linecks

this was shitposted about 10 times this week, no sane gnu/linux user still runs x11
Luke Moore
That's a window service not the operating system
Noah Martinez
X is deprecated. If you're still using it you're a boomer.
Nicholas Hall
>the 95% of Linux distros are "deprecated"
Julian Nelson
Then what should we run? No X11?
Wayland is not ready for another 20 years.

LMFAO

The absolute state is that it was announced on a ML on the 25th and is already fixed.
Do your updates.

gee whiz, by that standard ssh is lubricated asshole begging the network for hackerman dick.

Mathematicians and building designers found mistaken assumption from a hundred years ago before. So what?
Zachary Price
use framebuffer, there is literally no reason to have a window manager in the current day and age.
Matthew Ross
that looks like an absolute mess

I have to agree with the other user. That's messy.

lmfao fucking troll

if you use bdf fonts then fbterm will actually line up the box-drawing characters correctly. using pcf2bdf and then renaming the bdf font to something like terminusfb is the only way i can stand it. something about it not lining up really bugs me. i don't think it's actively developed anymore so it probably won't get fixed, which is a real shame because it's such a great tool.

If they have access to your computer room you are already fucked. Spy cameras, etc. Nothing to see here.

>If a program is ran as suid root, it can be used to perform actions as root
THIS IS WHY SUID EXISTS
THIS VULNERABILITY IS LIKE GIVING USERS SUDO PRIVILEGES AND THEN SAYING THEY CAN EXPLOIT THEIR WAY TO ROOT
FUCK YOU

So basically if I understand this correctly the article is saying
>run X11 as root
>hackers can run stuff as root
Isn't that the whole reason why you're not supposed to run root for normal use?
Ayden Collins
99% of Linux distros are running X11 as root. Look at your processes.

I'm running Debian/XFCE. does pic-related mean I am ok, or should I check something else?
Logan Richardson
What do you expect from the headphones and winfaggots board?
Dylan Anderson
I'm running a BSD and you're right.
The process "Xorg" runs as user but "/usr/local/bin/X" runs as root.
I'm assuming this is because root access is required for graphics drivers or some shit?
Try
>grep X
Or
>grep Xorg
Instead
Ethan Turner
eek
Carson Morris
Fedora evidently defaults to rootless X. Surely this has been the norm for some time now?
Carter Cooper
Don't even work unless Xorg is poorly configured. So this doesn't work Fedora, CentOS, or Ubuntu. I've tried them all. Others have reported that it doesn't work on Arch either. It's literally nothing.
>use framebuffer
Fucking disgusting. Kill yourself.
