[opensuse] No Tumbleweed mirrors?
by Christopher Myers 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

I'm trying to download the latest Tumbleweed ISO, and it's saying that it'll take about 2 days. Checking the http://mirrors.opensuse.org/ site, there aren't any mirrors listed. Is something going on with the system out of curiosity? Chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] YaST manual?
by Dave Howorth 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

The latest updates to the system want to install two Noto emoji fonts. That annoys me because I can't see ever wanting any emoji font, let alone a google one, let alone two of the bl**d things. So YaST updater tells me that the fonts are 'recommended' by a 'security' update to chromium. WTF! So I would like to tell YaST not to install those recommendations, but I can't figure out how to do it. Why does YaST not tell me those fonts are recommendations rather than real dependencies? Why does it not give me the opportunity to choose whether to install them? The online help says to refer to the manual for details but doesn't provide a link. https://en.opensuse.org/System_Updates says to refer to YaST Online Update = http://doc.opensuse.org/products/opensuse/openSUSE/opensuse-reference/cha.o… but when I click on that link it takes me to https://doc.opensuse.org/ and when I select the HTML version of the Reference Guide it seems there is no such chapter - the word Update apears only once in the contents - 'Dynamic Update of Zone Data' and none of the occurences of the word YaST appear relevant. Google helpfully shows me the page https://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Online_Update but that says nothing either. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] No xfce in 42.3
by Roger Price 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

For some years I have been using lxde and later xfce with openSUSE versions up to 42.2. I am now doing a net install of 42.3 with, I had hoped, xfce. Previously this was a simple choice on the User Interface page, but this choice has disappeared with 42.3. All I see is User Interface Please select a user interface * Desktop with KDE Plasma * Desktop with Gnome * Server (Text Mode) * Custom Why has xfce been removed? Is there some way of getting an xfce desktop on openSUSE 42.3 as I had with 42.2?

[opensuse] 42.3: NET install via WiFi :-)
by Roger Price 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

I installed 42.3 via a TP-Link TL-WN722N (Atheros AR9271) which was detected automatically. This is the first time in my experience that a NET install has succeeded via WiFi. Well done!

[opensuse] Bug in Kmail around 2017-6-26 in parsing the field "Reply to" in Default Identity
by Lívio Cipriano 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hi, Today I reinstalled me kmail with version 5.5.3 and I found the following BUG: 1. If you put a simple email (like yourname(a)yourISP.com) in the Reply To Address configuration in you Default identity, Kmail inserts a line in the text of your sent message with the field 'Reply-To:' 2. If you put a non simple email (like Your Name <yourname(a)yourISP.com>) in the Reply To Address configuration in you Default identity, Kmail DOES NOT inserts a line in the text of your sent message with the field 'Reply-To:' 3. In all other email Identities kmail inserts a line in the text of your sent message with the field 'Reply-To:' regarding if you configure that Identity with a simple or non simple email.

[opensuse] tsclient equivalent for oS?
by Christopher Myers 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hi all, In the past I've used the application tsclient, which is quite helpful because it keeps all of my vnc and rdp connections in a nice clickable interface. However, it's no longer supported. Does anyone use something similar? Chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] autofs/sshfs/fuse permissions on mountpoint folder
by Daniel Pecka 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hello there, I have (almost) perfectly working autofs setup for remote directory mounted via sshfs, my setup looks as follows (I've hidden a real target server set in $srv var by example.com placeholder): > perl -ne "print if s/$srv/example.com/g" /etc/auto.master /home/dpecka/autofs /home/dpecka/.autofs/auto-sshfs-example.com --timeout=60 > perl -ne "print if s/$srv/example.com/g" ~/.autofs/auto-sshfs-$srv example.com -fstype=fuse,rw,IdentityFile=/home/dpecka/.autofs/id_rsa2,allow_other,default_permissions,uid=1000,gid=100 :sshfs\#ntz@example.com\:/home/ntz/pub ## with NOT running automounter, see perms > ls -lad ~/autofs/ drwx------ 2 dpecka users 4096 Jul 31 15:25 /home/dpecka/autofs/ ## with running automounter daemon > ls -la ~/autofs/ | sed "s/$srv/example.com/" total 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Jul 31 17:29 . drwxr-xr-x 46 dpecka users 4096 Jul 31 17:09 .. dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jul 31 17:29 example.com > mount | grep ssh | sed "s/$srv/example.com/g" /home/dpecka/.autofs/auto-sshfs-example.com on /home/dpecka/autofs type autofs (rw,relatime,fd=7,pgrp=15067,timeout=60,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect,pipe_ino=684315) ntz@example.com:/home/ntz/pub on /home/dpecka/autofs/example.com type fuse.sshfs (rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other) QUESTION: When I start automounter service, it always sets the permissions like this (above) and **anybody can browse the mounted folder (bacause of suse's default umask 755) however at least they cannot write to files there thanks to the allow_other,default_permissions,uid=1000,gid=100. So can I manage out somehow, that actually only me (dpecka user,, and root ofc) can read either from this automount folder (/home/dpecka/autofs set in etc/auto.master) or this automounted resource (/home/dpecka/autofs/example.com set in /home/dpecka/.autofs/auto-sshfs-example.com) without changing the default umask 0022 using the fuse umask= option, because actually remote dir is sftp mounted folder that needs o+r for apache that is reading files there via `other' field .. thanks, d -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Cannot upgrade to/install 42.3
by Albert Oszkó 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hi all, This afternoon - after a lengthy backup process of /home - I tried to upgrade from 42.2. to 42.3. The installer media is an USB stick. Shortly after beginning the process it stuck at the wifi driver, which is iwlwifi. Tried several times, to no avail. Then I tried to install instead of upgrade, with the same result. I downloaded 42.3 with metalink which automatically checks the integrity - at least this said on the page. What else can I do to have 42.3? Thanks, Albert

[opensuse] Help, please! Did I permanently erase my data?
by Albert Oszkó 31 Jul '17

Hi all, I wanted to write leap 42.3 on an USB stick. Unfortunately I did not realize that my 1 TB Toshiba external HDD was also plugged in and mounted. Imagewriter selected it and offered to unmount it and I agreed. Only a few seconds later I knew I made a big mistake. I iimediately cancelled writing. Now I cannot acces data on it. Is it possible to get back at least some of data? lsusb still knows about it: Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0480:a00c Toshiba America Info. Systems, Inc.
