[opensuse-support] Qt-Creator
by Doug Craig 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

To Whom it May Concern: I've been running Qt-Creator on Windows for years but six-months ago I switched to OpenSuse Leap 15.1 KDE. I've managed to get qt-creator installed on opensuse but I cannot get it to build/compile code without issues, many, many issues, 1000s of them. I've installed it from OpenSuse. I've tried downloading it from Open Suse's respository, from qt.io/Downloads, etc., I just cannot get it to work. At the moment I'm running it in VirtualBox 6.1 because it crashed my main HD so many times. Any assistance you could offer me would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Doug Craig ********************************** Doug Craig 3 Ford Street Apt# 103 Halifax, Nova Scotia B3M 4P8 Tel# 902-443-4927 Email: dougcraig(a)ns.sympatico.ca **********************************

[opensuse-support] Category:Wiki_editing_help, and wiki editing pages, are missing markup help
by Felix Miata 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

https://en.opensuse.org/Category:Wiki_editing_help ought to have a pointer to the wiki markup language, whatever there is that catalogs equivlents to HTML, such as pre, code, strike, list, dd, dt, etc. I would put one there if I could find one anywhere, and I would to more wiki updating as I find necessary. If any exist, it/they are well disguised. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Audio_troubleshooting is in bad need of help from someone who actually knows audio setup. It has too many references to expired releases. Also, YaST for audio setup has apparently become or is becoming useless: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1163046#c10 -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse-support] Couldn't move remaining userspace processes, ignoring: Input/output error
by Ralph 11 Feb '20

11 Feb '20

There is a bug in kernel 5.5.2-2.1 in Kernel:/stable/standard that generates the title error message and has already had a patch created for it, per: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/14682 First question: since the version in stable was compiled well after the patch was made available, will that (stable) be automatically patched, or will it just 'age out', or should I file a bugzilla? Second question: is this bug just 'confusing people' as its originator says, or are there actually some bad things possible to happen running this kernel with this particular unpatched bug? I haven't noticed anything unusual yet but they sure seem to have rushed to fix it so... Thanks.

[opensuse-support][TW] Where did Plasma 5 system sounds settings go?
by Felix Miata 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

Weren't they in Notifications? That only has one selection screen now. There used to be a dropdown with many, in which a large scroll was required to find the one where startup sound and exit sound was enabled. I don't see anything else that makes any sense to contain these. Here are all shown in these two groups: Workspace: Workspace Behavior Window Management Shortcuts Startup & Shutdown Search Personalizations: Account Details Notifications Regional Settings Accessibility Applications Online Accounts -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse-support] alternative ssh ports not set by yast in firewall
by Patrick Shanahan 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

Downloaded 20200207 Tumbleweed install iso chose firewall and open ssh port successfully completed install, kde/plasma5 configured NetworkManager (wireless) edited /etc/ssh/ssh{d}_config to alter ssh ports restarted sshd (and network/NetworkManager) no remote access via ssh opened "yast firewall" and saw that ports for ssh were blank added alter ssh port to the ports tab for every zone where ssh was passed. now have remote access via ssh. iirc, previously all that was necessary is to restart sshd and the correct ports were assigned from /etc/ssh/ssh{d}_config. is this a bug? is it related to moving /etc/services & company or a problem with yast or firewalld? or is <user/admin> now expected to make another configuration to enable alternative ssh ports? fwiw: firewall-config was not checked. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS
by Felix Miata 06 Feb '20

06 Feb '20

My situation seems to be out of sync with that page. Brother-in-law's bad SSD originally used btrfs for 42.2, and eventually reached 15.1 in November. First I used ddrescue to clone from the bad SSD to another disk. Then I connected the other disk to a working 15.1 as sdb. These are the last steps from https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS that I've taken: # btrfs rescue zero-log /dev/sda1 # Then try to mount the device normally. If it works, stop going. What exactly is "mount normally" with btrfs? # mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt has apparently mounted / just fine, but /mnt/home is void, empty. It should contain what needs to be rescued. Is /home that lost, or is some further mounting step(s) required? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

[opensuse-support] Where is systemd-logind device access configured?
by Peter Suetterlin 05 Feb '20

05 Feb '20

Hi list, as in the topoic - I try to figure out where the rules are set by which systemd-logind grants access to devices like sound and video. The issue is that after some update, /dev/nvidia* is no longer treated by it, so stays unaccessible to users other than root:video It does work for /dev/snd/* and /dev/dri/card*, just not for /dev/nvidia* Any hints? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] measuring bandwidth in a month
by Felix Miata 04 Feb '20

04 Feb '20

How does one with unlimited/uncapped download bandwidth/data ISP service find out how much is being used in an average month? I expect to need to move soon, and cannot count on being able to find a provider without a cap in the locations I'm looking. I might have no choice other than Hughesnet. So, I need an idea how much I'm actually using. Is this something a router can track? Does a cable modem track it? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.
