[opensuse-factory] acpid requires systemd?
by Felix Miata 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Can this be true? If so, why? Zypper won't let me upgrade acpid without breakage unless systemd is installed too. I have systemd locked out, as I'd rather test things I can understand in Factory, not major overhaul stuff. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Re: [opensuse-factory] repository priorities with Tumbleweed
by Thomas Langkamp 16 Jul '15

> No, please don't confuse people, if you add more repos than just > Tumbleweed you really had better know what you are doing or bad things > can, and will, happen :) I understand. I just would like to add the following to http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Tumbleweed - between ## is the new stuff: "The only supported method of repo use for Tumbleweed is to have only the main repos (Oss, Non-oss, and Update) and the Tumbleweed repo active. ## If you use more repositorys you have to know how repo-priorities work, but even then Tumblweed does NOT support this ## " It would also be good to move this information to "Special concerns" and to move the whole "Special concerns"-section up. For example "Special Concerns Virtual Machines ... Third Party Drivers ... ## Non-Standard Repos: Only use Oss, Non-oss, and Update combined with the Tumbleweed-Standard repo. Everything else is not supported and might break the system ## " >You do know the legal reasons behind why packman is there, right? Yes. Then I do not whish you personaly to support Packman with TW - I understand now that this is not possible from your perspectivg. But...as the OS community discusses right now if/how to strengthen Tumbleweed... one way would be, that Packman+TW would be supported BY Packman. So I will ask the Packman-guys to do that... I hope this is possible for them. Without Packman Tumbleweed is so ... "anti-multimedia" ;) thanks anyway :D -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

by Kyrill Detinov 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

Hello. There is a regression in YaST2 *Qt* "install/remove software" module. It doesn't show solver diagram. First, no dependencies on libqdialogsolver. Second, installed libqdialogsolver doesn't help. Reported ages ago. And confirmed. All the info is provided. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785431 WBR Kyrill

This sounds like https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=796162 which should be fixed since some time. I'd guess some older postfix package broke your main.cf. Nevertheless, if you want to be really sure, uninstall postfix, move away /etc/postfix and re-install the postfix package.

[opensuse-factory] Warning: new systemd version landing in Factory
by Frederic Crozat 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hi all, systemd v202 should be landed in Factory soon. It contains a lot of changes (and bug fixes) compared to v195 we had in 12.3, like (this is an extract from the .changes I wrote): + udev now supports different naming policies for network interface for predictable names (this one is disabled by /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/network.conf until network team had a chance to look at it and test it). This should be enabled by default in Factory soon (see http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfac… ) This can be also be turned off with kernel command line switch: net.ifnames=0 (when the tmpfiles.d is removed in the near future) + udev gained support for loading additional device properties from an indexed database. %udev_hwdb_update macro should be used by packages adding entries to this database. + Journal gained support for "Message Catalog", indexed database to link up additional information with journal entries. %journal_catalog_update macro should be used by packages adding %entries to this database. + New rpm macros has been added: %udev_rules_update(), %_udevhwdbdir, %_udevrulesdir, %_journalcatalogdir, %_tmpfilesdir, %_sysctldir. + "age" field for tmpfiles entries can be set to 0, forcing removal of files matching this entry. + coredumpctl gained "gdb" verb to invoke gdb on selected coredump. + In service files, %U can be used for configured user name of the service. + nspawn can be invoked without a controlling TTY. + systemd and nspawn can accept socket file descriptors when started for socket activation. This allow socket activated nspawn containers. + logind can now automatically suspend/hibernate/shutdown system on idle. + ConditionACPower can be used in unit file to detect if AC power source is connected or if system is on battery power. + EnvironmentFile= in unit files supports file globbing. + Behaviour of PrivateTmp=, ReadWriteDirectories=, ReadOnlyDirectories= and InaccessibleDirectories= has changed. The private /tmp and /var/tmp directories are now shared by all processes of a service (which means ExecStartPre= may now leave data in /tmp that ExecStart= of the same service can still access). When a service is stopped its temporary directories are immediately deleted (normal clean-up with tmpfiles is still done in addition to this though). + Resource limits (as exposed by cgroup controlers) can be controlled dynamically at runtime for all units, using "systemctl set-cgroup-attr foobar.server cgroup.attribute value". Those settings are stored persistenly on disk. + systemd-vconsole-setup will now copy all fonts settings to all allocated VTs. + timedated now exposes CanNTP property to indicate if a local NTP service is available. + pstore file system is mounted by default, if available. + SMACK policies are loaded at early boot, if available. + Timer units now support calendar time events. + systemd-detect-virt detect xen PVs. + Some distributions specific LSB targets has been dropped: $x-display-manager, $mail-transfer-agent, $mail-transport-agent, $mail-transfer-agent, $smtp, $null. As well mail-transfer-agent.target and syslog.target has been removed. + systemd-journal-gatewayd gained SSL support and now runs as unprivileged user/group "systemd-journal-gateway:systemd-journal-gateway" + systemd-analyze will read, when available, boot time performance from EFI variable from boot loader supporting it. + A new generator for automatically mounting EFI System Partition (ESP) to /boot (if empty and no other file system has been configured in fstab for it). + logind will now send out PrepareForSleep(false) out unconditionally, after coming back from suspend. + tmpfiles gained a new "X" line type, that allows configuration of files and directories (with wildcards) that shall be excluded from automatic cleanup ("aging"). + udev default rules set the device node permissions now only at "add" events, and do not change them any longer with a later "change" event. + A new bootctl tool has been added that is an interface for certain EFI boot loader operations. + A new tool kernel-install has been added to install kernel images according to Boot Loader Specification. + A new tool systemd-activate can be used to test socket activation. + A new group "systemd-journal" is now owning journal files, replacing "adm" group. + journalctl gained "--reverse" to show output in reverse order, "--pager-end" to jump at the end of the journal in the pager (only less is supported) and "--user-unit" to filter for user units. + New unit files has been addedto ease for systemd usage in initrd. + "systemctl start" now supports "--irreversible" to queue operations which can be reserved. It is now used to make shutdown requests more robust. + Auke Kok's bootchart has been merged and relicensed to LGPLv2.1+. + nss-myhostname has been merged in systemd codebase. + some defaults sysctl values are now set by default: the safe sysrq options are turned on, IP route verification is turned on, and source routing disabled. The recently added hardlink and softlink protection of the kernel is turned on. + journald will now explicitly flush journal files to disk at the latest 5 min after each write and will mark file offline until next read. This should increase reliability in case of crash. + remote-fs-setup.target target has been added to pull in specific services when at least one remote file system is to be mounted. + timers.target and paths.target have been added as canonical targets to pull user timer and path units, similar to sockets.targets. + udev daemon now sets default number of worker processes in parallel based on number of CPUs instead of RAM. + Most unit file settings which takes likst of items can now be reset by assigning empty string to them, using drop-in. + Add support for drop-in configuration file for units. + Most unit file settings which takes likst of items can now be reset by assigning empty string to them, using drop-in. + 'hostnamectl set-hostname' allows setting FQDN hostnames. + fractional time intervals are now parsed properly. + localectl can list available X11 keymaps. + systemd-analyze dot can filter for specific units and has been rewritten in C. + systemctl gained "list-dependencies" command. + Inhibitors are now honored no only in GNOME. + 'systemctl list-jobs' got some polishing. '--type=' argument may now be passed more than once. 'systemctl list-sockets' has been added. + systemd gained a new unit 'systemd-static-nodes.service' that generates static device nodes earlier during boot, and can run in conjunction with udev. + systemd-nspawn now places all containers in the new /machine top-level cgroup directory in the name=systemd hierarchy. + bootchart can now store its data in the journal. + journactl can now take multiple --unit= and --user-unit= switches. + The cryptsetup logic now understands the "luks.key=" kernel command line switch. If a configured key file is missing, it will fallback to prompting the user. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat(a)suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

I installed HTTP started by Grub using latest factory-snapshot with nomodeset on cmdline. Graphical install worked fine, though slow with only 384M RAM, but resulting X is unusable. The left half of the screen is fine, but the right side is a mess, as if there were some kind of buffer misalignment repeating portions and omitting others. Using nomodeset produces mostly black screens with colored lines in various places at various times in attempting to start the login manager, and kills keyboard.
