[opensuse] Xorg process taking 30% of processor
by Bob Williams 08 Sep '10

08 Sep '10

Hi, I have a process running as root which is taking 25 - 30% of my processor activity. Htop tells me it's /usr/bin/Xorg -br :0 vt7 -nolisten tcp - \ auth/var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-j1o7xa It's obviously something to do with the graphic display, but it would seem to me to be using too much of the main CPU. I have a quad core, 2.8GHz processor with 8Gb Ram, and no particularly graphics intensive software running (Kontact, Firefox, Amarok, gkrellm, Krusader). The graphics card is nVidia GeForce 9600GT. I'm running openSUSE 11.3 and KDE 4.5.

[opensuse] ldap authentication to Novell eDirectory
by James Pifer 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

I'm trying to setup ldap authentication to eDirectory. I'm actually doing it on SLES11, but hoping someone here can give me a hand. I'm getting an error when I try to ssh as a user that only exists in ldap, not locally. I've found a lot of references to this error, but have not found a solution that works for my situation. First, the error I see in the log is: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "cn=myid,ou=my ou,o=root" (Invalid credentials) I can successfully bind to ldap using ldapsearch and ldapbrowser from sles11, so I know my credentials are correct. Connection to ldap is not encrypted so I've captured all three logins using wireshark. The authentication value for the simple bind matches for ldapsearch and ldapbrowser, but is different coming from pam_ldap. So it seems like pam_ldap is sending the password different, maybe it's encrypting or something, don't know. In /etc/ldap.conf I've set: host 192.168.100.21 base o=root bind_policy soft pam_lookup_policy yes pam_password nds nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap nss_schema rfc2307bis I also tried pam_password clear. Anyone have any suggestions? Maybe I'm just overlooking something very basic. The complete output from the log is: Aug 31 13:48:32 sles11 sshd[19756]: Invalid user myid from 192.168.100.24 Aug 31 13:48:39 sles11 sshd[19761]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "cn=myid,ou=my ou,o=root" (Invalid credentials) Aug 31 13:48:39 sles11 sshd[19761]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): check pass; user unknown Aug 31 13:48:39 sles11 sshd[19761]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=192.168.100.24 Aug 31 13:48:41 sles11 sshd[19756]: error: PAM: User not known to the underlying authentication module for illegal user myid from 192.168.100.24 Aug 31 13:48:41 sles11 sshd[19756]: Failed keyboard-interactive/pam for invalid user myid from 192.168.100.24 port 38256 ssh2 Aug 31 13:50:32 sles11 sshd[19762]: error: ssh_msg_send: write Aug 31 13:50:32 sles11 sshd[19762]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): conversation failed Aug 31 13:50:32 sles11 sshd[19762]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): auth could not identify password for [myid] Aug 31 13:50:32 sles11 sshd[19762]: error: ssh_msg_send: write Thanks, James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Desktop after update
by Erik Jakobsen 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

I run openSuSE 11.3. I have installed kedtoys4, and then I recognized, that also a new NVIDIA driver was installed. After the update I recognized, that my desktop looks like this: http://www.urbakken.dk/desktop.jpg This means, that all what was located in the panel before the update, now is spread all around the desktop. What can I do, to get rid of that ?. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Thats' just silly. There is no such thing as I have just demonstrated. The squabbling about the thread are 50 times worse than anything actually in the thread. Yes, this post included. Yes your post included too so think before chastising too awful much. Treating the symptom rarely pays off. -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Icons bleeding from E17 to KDE3.5
by Mark Misulich 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, I installed Enlightenment E17 on my laptop (Toshiba Sattelite U505-S2950) which already had KDE 3.5 installed as the default desktop. There are numerous icons splattered on the E17 desktop for various logical partitions which I didn't install, they come installed by default with E17. They are a bit of a nuisance on that desktop, but what is worse, they show up on my KDE 3.5 desktop when I open it up after using the E17 Desktop Environment. Anybody know how to get rid of them, or alternatively how to move them somewhere where they can be safely out of the way on E17 and won't show up in KDE3.5?

[opensuse] ssh -X didn't display YAST2 GUI
by Masim "Vavai" Sugianto 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, I manage to do GUI remote connection to one of my server running SLES 11 SP1 and to another running openSUSE 11.3 by using ssh -X remote-ip and then issue : yast2 but YAST running in ncurses (text mode) instead of GUI Application. I disable firewall for temporary checking but YAST (and others GUI application) could not start. is this my problem because I remote to the server twice : first remote to text mode server with public IP and then remote to the GUI server by using local IP (both with ssh -X) or do I need to do some configurationchecking. If so, what can I do for checking? -- Best Regards, Masim "Vavai" Sugianto /************************************************************/ Blog (ID) : http://www.vavai.com Excellent Infotama Kreasindo : http://www.vavai.biz /************************************************************/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
