The 15.3 image did succeed after zypper dup and installing a lot of plasma packets :) Next step is to get HDMI sound running. Am Samstag, dem 11.09.2021 um 16:49 +0200 schrieb Freek de Kruijf:

Hello opensuse folks,

I own a rasperry Pi 4 8GB and would like to use it a media center with opensuse to watch Youtube and Amazon Prime Video. Did run Raspberrian Py till a few days ago Prime did deny service on that chromium.

What can I do to run openSUSE with KDE on it like on all my other computers? I did install a tumbleweed kde image from https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Raspberry_Pi4. The only things I see after booting is a mouse pointer and a ksplahmql crash window (Segmentation fault).

What can I do?

Thanks for you help, Sandra

I use all kinds of openSUSE OSes on my RPi4's, also Tumbleweed. Did try it with KDE a while ago, but at that time it failed to start Plasma. Did not crash. It did succeed with XFCE, which should support your main goals. Currently trying to install Leap 15.3 KDE on an attached USB disk. No result yet.

How can I enable sound via HDMI with openSUSE Tumbleweed at an Raspi4? This bug report says, that it should be possible: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177169 I have to use a kernel > 5.10, so Leap 15.3 is not ok, I changed to tumbleweed KDE (X11 does start only with root via startx, but I think this is the smaller problem.) I use hdmi0, my extraconfig.txt is: dtoverlay=disable-vc4 dtparam=audio=on hdmi_force_hotplug=1 hdmi_drive=2 hdmi_group=1 hdmi_mode=16 hdmi_force_edid_audio=1 Thanks for your advice Am Sonntag, dem 12.09.2021 um 00:50 +0200 schrieb ub1x@gmx.net:

Propose to install KDE-Tumbleweed - I download the image in a script

#DownloadTumblweedForRasPi4.sh MyImg=openSUSE-Tumbleweed-ARM-KDE-efi.aarch64.raw.xz wget -c http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/tumbleweed/appliances/$ {MyImg}.sha256 && wget -c http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/ tumbleweed/appliances/${MyImg} mv ${MyImg} $(cat ${MyImg}.sha256 | sed 's/.* //') && sha256sum -c $ {MyImg}.sha256

If Checksum Check is OK - I install the I install it on an SD-Card like you does it so I reed it from your Text. (Replace with your ISO and sdx with your USB device.

su -c "xzcat openSUSE-Tumbleweed-ARM-KDE-raspberrypi.aarch64- 2021.08.19- Snapshot20210901.raw.xz | dd bs=4M of=/dev/sdx iflag=fullblock oflag=direct status=progress; sync"

I think you do it similar. Afterwords if the system boots I do the following steps:

01. login with usr "root" pwd "linux" 02. call cmd "passwd" and set new root password 03. Call "yast2" 04. Change language, Menue: System -> Language (e.g. German/Deutsch -     and don't forget to enable Keyboard und Timezone) 05. Create user, Menue: Security and Users -> User and Group Management 06. I Install "joe" ans some helpfull tools to be on the save side     "zypper in joe mc mtools" 07. Install the packman repositories to enable IP protected codecs like     MP3 and MP4:     "zypper ar -cfp 90 https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/ openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ packman"     "zypper dup --from packman --allow-vendor-change" 08. Update system - to be on the save site (optional)     "zypper ref ; zypper dup" 09. reboot     "reboot"

That are my steps I does. Afterwords you must login and download the additional required programs.

Regards Ulf

Have you tried it as root or as a user? https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177169#c28 Am 12.09.2021 um 20:10 schrieb Sandy:
