Hi everybody,
I've recently upgraded to debian testing (squeeze) and I'm having
some minor issues, that I hope someone can help me fix...
The thing is due to a vulnerability in desktop shortcuts execution,
gnome has introduced in their latest versions the Untrusted
Application Launcher which is supposed to prevent execution of
shortcuts in desktop unless they are given explicit execution
permission. So every time one double clicks a shortcut, a pop
message appears asking whether to mark it as trusted, launch it
anyway or just cancel. This is supposed to disappear once you mark
it as trusted or if you do a chmod ugo+x
/home/user/Desktop/*.desktop but this is not working in my SO.
Although I have all desktop shortcuts with exec permission and even
clicking the 'Mark as Trusted' button doesn't make the popup
disappear.
I did some google research with no solution found, does anyone know
a way to fix this or if this is a bug in squeeze that hasn't been
fixed yet?
Thanks!
Ariel
Did you check wether your home dir is mounted with the noexec option ?
