[opensuse] lvm is dumping core - a lot
by Mathias Homann 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

Hi guys, I'm finding a lot of this in my logs: Sep 14 21:08:43 akari kernel: lvm[21398]: segfault at 5a ip 00007f1477d7346f sp 00007ffe4a3032b8 error 4 in libc-2.26.so[7f1477cd1000+1b1000] Sep 14 21:08:44 akari systemd-coredump[21400]: Process 21398 (lvm) of user 0 dumped core. And I mean a LOT. as in, once every two seconds for a period of two minutes, seems to happen during recreation of the boot ramdisk after installing packages with modues that go into it. Any ideas? openSUSE Leap 15.0, all updates applied, system is using LVM on four harddisks...

[opensuse] Command line pdf reader - zathura - vi like interface - pretty amazing!
by David C. Rankin 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

All, This is one of those stray tips e-mail for anybody who spends time on the command line and every wanted a pretty amazing command line pdf reader. zathura is it, and it is a vi like interface that is pretty damn amazing. I stumbled across it looking into pdftohtml and somehow found a link to zathura. For opensuse it is in the X11 Utilities repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Utilities/ Just # zypper in zathura zathura-plugin-pdf-poppler zathura-plugin-ps for both the pdf and ps reader (you can also choose mupdf instead of poppler) The entire install is ~600K (not even 1M). pdf rendering is great. You can tweak the config by adding 'set' commands to ~/.config/zathura/zathurarc (none by default). I just added: set font "monospace normal 8" to drop the vi-style command line font from default 9 to 8pt. Full man pages provided with 'man zathurarc' for the config options. I don't pass along many stray tips, but after using Linux for so many years and never running across zathura before -- I'll be many are in the same boat. (also works fine over ssh with ssh -Y (or -X) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Two graphic cards, how to get them to work?
by Karl Sinn 17 Sep '19

17 Sep '19

Hi, Leap 15.0 I installed a second graphic card in my system and plugged my second monitor in the new card. I followed https://en.opensuse.org/ATI as good as possible but I kind of don't get the second card to do anything. Here's my cards: lspci -nn | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] [10de:104a] (rev a1) 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Tahiti PRO [Radeon HD 7950/8950 OEM / R9 280] [1002:679a] The NVIDIA card was first is still running fine. I installed xf86-video-amdgpu and rebooted the computer. Now here: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:AMDGPU in the Hybrid section is information that might be the key for my problem. It says that the boot loader might need parameters. Here's the output of: xrandr --listproviders Providers: number : 2 Provider 0: id: 0x31e; cap: 0x1 (Source Output); crtcs: 2; outputs: 4; associated providers: 0; name: NVIDIA-0 output DVI-I-0 output VGA-0 output DVI-I-1 output HDMI-0 Provider 1: id: 0x367; cap: 0xf (Source Output, Sink Output, Source Offload, Sink Offload); crtcs: 6; outputs: 4; associated providers: 0; name: modesetting output 0x363 output 0x364 output 0x365 output 0x366 It looks like the two cards are being discovered but only the NVIDIA card is actually active. According to these instructions I might have to add something like amdgpu.si_support=1 to the bootloader settings. I'm completely unsure about this, that's why before I try this and mess up things I would like to know if I go in the right direction. thanks, Karl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What plays a .3gp video file from a phone?
by David C. Rankin 16 Sep '19

16 Sep '19

All, I don't mess with video often, but I have a video I have received from a client documenting a date and time for a custody/visitation pickup and it is in .3gp format. VLC claims it doesn't have h264 (part 10) and mp4a codecs. VLC is from videolan, not packman. Do I need to change repos? If so, how do I switch all to packman? -- David C.

Assuming you have ample storage on your new machine, you might consider creating a separate ntfs rw partition for data, and leave the C: partition ro or don't mount it at all unless absolutely necessary. And btw there is a feature in windows that permits redirecting the default data folders (Documents, Downloads, etc.) to a different tree and (if desired) on another partition. Over the years I've found using these techniques helpful in avoiding unpleasant surprises from Microsoft. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] scanner, one more time--success!
by Doug McGarrett 14 Sep '19

14 Sep '19

Downloaded the Epson scanner package for V300 scanner: iscan-gt-f720-bundle-2.30.4.x64.rpm and followed the directions for installing it, using the install.sh package. That worked out well, for the Epson WP-4530 all-in-one and it accesses the V300, but something is wrong with the V300 and it only produces a black rectangular blob. I have to see if there is a maintenance manual for that, since I want to be able to print from Ektachrome slides. Anyway, XSane now works as it should, and finds both scanners. In the meantime, I also bought Vue-Scan, but it doesn't like to let me fill out the 3-element registration. I guess that's money wasted. And, it turns out, I like the XSane interface better anyway. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hey, I'm running Xfce on Leap 15.1. In the notification area panel is the NetworkManager-applet.

[opensuse] Help! 15.1 System unusable due to KDE freezes
by Daniel Bauer 11 Sep '19

11 Sep '19

Hi I write from my laptop because my desktop computer has become unusable all of a sudden. It is OS 15.1 with latest updated KDE, with an Nvidia-Card. I had similar problems before, but then I thought I found the solution changing compositor version - but the fun only was for 7 days (in which I didn't reboot). This morning, after entering the password in the creen that comes after a while of inactivity, the desktop froze. I logged out and the password page showed completely scrambled. After logging in it froze again. I rebooted several times, always the same result. I let the computer down for half an hour, booted, and happily enjoyed it - for some time. Now, it's frozen again... Mouse doesn't move, keyboard is dead, but I can SSH to it from the laptop. Immediately after logging in as root via SSH I typed "dmesg" and copied the result. I didn't shorten it, because I don't know from when those messages are and which are important. I also copied /var/log/messages since the last boot: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/div/dmesg.txt https://www.daniel-bauer.com/div/mesages.txt Right now the computer - my only working place - is unusable and I hope somebody can give me a hint on what happened and what I can do.

[opensuse] Setting Chromium flags via Plasma app launcher

This is insane. What does work: $ export CHROMIUM_USER_FLAGS="--disable-font-subpixel-positioning" $ chromium&| If you look at /usr/bin/chromium, you'll see why it works. Even when I export this variable in user's zshrc (yes I did relogin) and "run in terminal" is ticked, the envvar is _still_ ignored. Makes me wonder under which user the application launcher is launching applications. So, how do I make it work in the application launcher?

Hi, My Libre Office writer has developed a bad problem: when I type, the letters appear a position or two to the left of the cursor. With different fonts. This impedes editing badly. A restart of the program, that has been running for two days, restored normality. Another day I observed problems with styles: impossible to apply default style settings to paragraphs, so that different paragraphs got different appearance, despite having the same style, and I cleared direct formatting. I had to create a new document and copy over the paragraphs without style. What is going on? Using Leap 15.0 with default LO. Version: 6.2.5.2 Build ID: 20(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.12; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: es-ES (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] App:Geo - Unable to differentiate between two repos

Hello, I recently installed QGIS from the Application:Geo devel project on Tumbleweed, and in addition to the App:Geo repo I also subscribed to another seemingly identical repo: $ zypper lr -EU | awk -F'|' '{print $3 $7}' | grep 'opensuse.org' | rg -v home | sort Application:Geo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Application:/Geo/openSUSE_Tumblew… Main Repository (NON-OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss/ Main Repository (OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ Main Update Repository http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed/ openSUSE:Tumbleweed http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/ Software for Scientists and Engineers (openSUSE_Tumbleweed) http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ Does anyone know what the 'openSUSE:Tumbleweed' repo is in this context, and why does App:Geo depend on it? I can't find it anywhere on the project page at build.opensuse.org, and looking at the contents it seems almost identical to the 'Main Repository (OSS)' Regards, Chris
