[opensuse] File Systems
by Wolfgang Mueller 31 Aug '19

31 Aug '19

I am going to install 42.3 on a computer whose hard disk I want to erase completely to change partitioning. This gives me the chance to choose the file system. So far, I used ext4 only. But recently I read more about XFS and btrfs. But I know too little about them. Are they better than ext4? Or worse? Can you tell me something about their advantages and possible defects? Are there bugs? Best regards, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] leap 15.1 how to stop/restart network service?

Hello: In openSUSE Leap 15.1 I configured network service using network manager (not wicked). It seems when I stop network service, the network is not disabled.

[opensuse] exFAT specs published!

30 Aug '19

It seems that M$ has just published the exFAT specs, explicitly so that Linux adds full and legal support for it :-) <https://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/3080947/microsoft-exfat-open-sour…> Comments on the offtopic list, perhaps, please :-) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] trying to get scanner to work

Went to Epson site and looked up this scanner and Linux. It says, and I quote: "On Linux, you need to set up libusb device protections. " I don't know what this means, or how to do it. Please advise!

[opensuse] XMP/IPTC in Linux? (Photo)
by Carlos E. R. 30 Aug '19

30 Aug '19

Hi, I did a little test in Windows with some photos. Using the Nikon supplied tools (ViewNX-i/Capture NX) I wrote the "XMP/IPTC" copyright profile on a few photos. But on Linux there was no trace at all of this. [...] Forget it. Before posting this I took a second look on the photos on Windows, and whatever that is was not actually written: loading the photos again the info is not there, even though it asked me to "save" :-( -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] KDE: Different widgets for each desktop?
by Wolfgang Mueller 30 Aug '19

30 Aug '19

On Sun, 18 Aug 2019 at 18:52:46 +0200, I wrote to the KDE mailing list <kde-linux(a)kde.org>: > > In the old Version 4.14.9 under SuSE 13.2, the System Settings > granted the possibility to set "Different widgets for each desktop". > > Now, in the new Version 5.12.18 under Leap 15.1, I cannot detect > this useful setting. Where has it been hidden? Or does it not > exist any more? But I did not get an answer because the KDE mailing list is dead, and I seem to be the only surviving participant. So, it would be helpful if there were somebody among the users of <opensuse(a)opensuse.org> that could give me an answer.

[opensuse] Introduction + system boot failure after LDAPS configuration
by Nicolas Kovacs 29 Aug '19

29 Aug '19

Hi, Since this is my first message on this list, let me introduce myself. I'm a 52 year old Austrian living in Montpezat, a small village in South France. And I'm the manager of a small IT business with a focus on Linux and Open Source software. I'm running CentOS 7.6 on all my servers and OpenSUSE Leap 15.1 KDE on all my desktop clients. I'm currently fiddling with 389 Directory Server, the Open Source variant of Red Hat Directory Server. I've installed and configured it on a sandbox server running CentOS. Now I'd like my OpenSUSE Leap clients to get their authentication information from this machine. Here's what I do on a fresh install, vanilla OpenSUSE without any tweaks. Import CA certificate: # cp ca.crt /etc/pki/trust/anchors/ # update-ca-certificates --------------------------------------------------------------------- YaST > Network Services > LDAP and Kerberos Client > Change Settings: [X] Allow LDAP Users To Authenticate (pam_ldap) [X] Cache LDAP Entries For Faster Rsponse (nscd) [X] Automatically Create Home Directory Read the following items from LDAP data source: [X] Users [X] Groups [ ] Super-User Commands (sudo) [ ] Network Disk Locations (automount) Enter LDAP server locations: ldaps://amandine.microlinux.lan:636 DN of Search Base: dc=microlinux,dc=lan DN of Bind User : <empty> Password of the Bind User : <empty> [ ] Identify Group Members by Their DNs [X] Leave LDAP Connections Open for Consecutive Requests Secure LDAP communication: [X] Secure Communication via TLS --------------------------------------------------------------------- At this point, when I click on "Test Connection" in YaST's LDAP configuration module, I get this: "Successfully contacted LDAP server on URI ldaps://amandine.microlinux.lan:636!" I configure everything by clicking OK > OK and the proceed to a reboot. And then the next reboot is a total failure with errors everywhere pretty early in the process. After D-Bus starts, pretty much every service fails to start. NSCD fails, Modem Manager fails, etc. and I never get to see a login. And now I'm clueless. Any suggestions ?
