[opensuse] Legacy Nvidia Driver 340.102 does not compile under Leap 42.3
by Sudhir Anand 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

After updating to Leap 42.3, Nvidia leagcy drivers do not compile. There is an error message loading the kernel due to incompatible sources. In TW, this was resolved by applying patches to Nvidia's source files. Does anyone on this list know if any patches have to be applied to 340.102 version of the drive to install and load under 42.3? I cannot use latest drivers as I have an old laptop that does not use newer Nvidia chip. The laptop has 330m chipset. The log file extract is shown below if that helps: ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This happens most frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver such as rivafb, nvidiafb, or nouveau is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s), or no NVIDIA GPU installed in this system is supported by this NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release.

[opensuse] Leap 42.3 and nvidia = kaput?
by Mathias Homann 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

Hi, I just updated two machines to 42.3 using zypper dup... ... both machines have nvidia graphics, both have trouble with it now. Machine 1: Laptop, Geforce 840M, Bumblebee (nvidia optimus), several games won't work through "optirun <name>" or "primusrun <name>" anymore, no error messages whatsoever, the games just don't start, or start and exit without errors. Also, can't start games from within steam for linux anymore. Machine 2: Desktop, dualscreen setup, Geforce GTX 760 Ti, nividia driver rpm from nvidia repo through zypper, screen flickers as if "the cable is loose" Neither of the two had any problems like that with 42.2, and neither produces any meaningful error messages anywhere. Any ideas? Cheers Mathias -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

I'm not usually on this list but I just want to say that... If the discussion is about a rescue environment of a computer system, then that rescue environment depending for its usefulness on external resources is a bit of a contradiction in terms you know. That's all. I have had this discussion in other places but a rescue system that is not dependable is just a non-functional rescue system. That was on an Ubuntu mailing list. There are Ubuntu systems in which the rescue prompt is so buggy that you have a menu to select a bash prompt but after selecting the prompt the menu keeps responding to keypresses or something of the kind. Then someone responds with "It didn't do that for me." Great. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Stop Jobs taking too long
by John Andersen 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

Today, I started seeing stop jobs taking too long on my 42.2 system. For example Samba NMB counted down the entire 1:30 seconds before system[some letter we dare not mention] killed it. There are no actual stop job defined for nmb.service The prior shutdown wanted to count down 5 minutes to shutdown modemmanager.service. (the service file shows no stop job defined). There's no configuration specifying a 5 minute timeout on anything. (Side issue: why is modemmanager wanted by multiuser.target?) What is up with the stop jobs suddenly taking so long? I wasn't aware this was changed in any recent update. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Streaming video
by Stevens 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but figure those here can probably help. I have a server with a couple of very low traffic websites. I would like to provide streaming video, on demand, whatever it is called where someone visiting the site can click on a link and watch a video. My first thought was that it would be simpler from an admin point of view to just upload the video to Youtube and use that link, which I may end up doing if there is too much work involved in making apache2 serve out the mp4 file from the server. My question is more of a how do I make this work in apache2 locally?

[opensuse] Next roadblock: encrypted home isn't prompting for password during boot
by Christopher Myers 27 Jul '17

27 Jul '17

Now that I've finally got Tumbleweed bootable on my laptop, the encrypted home mount point that I set up on it isn't working. During the boot process it'll hang for a bit, and if I hit escape, it toggles back and forth between "a start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2did\blah\part3.device" and "a start job is running for dev-mapper-cr_home.device" If I view the boot.log, it's also got: [DEPEND] Dependency failed for cryptography setup for cr_home [DEPEND] Dependency failed for dev-mapper-cr_home.device [DEPEND] Dependency failed for /home [DEPEND] Dependency failed for File System Check on /dev/mapper/cr_home [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Encrypted Volumes I googled around a while and didn't see anything recent that was helpful. Am I missing something? How can I get this working? Thanks! Chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Now that I finally have Tumbleweed bootable on my laptop, I'm having problems getting the encrypted home to mount -- it never prompts for a password.
