[opensuse-factory] Removable Devices KDE 4.4 - RC1
by Samuel Partida 06 Jul '10

06 Jul '10

Good afternoon, I've tried looking around the mailing list without luck, so I apologize if this has been addressed before. When I plug my usb stick I have no trouble mounting/umounting it but it seems that is not being automounted by KDE as it was on 11.2. I've checked that the required options under Removable Devices on System Preferences are enabled. Should I tweak something on HAL configuration?

[opensuse-factory] Packman and VLC missing in repo list
by Marcel Hilzinger 06 Jul '10

06 Jul '10

I wanted to add packman via YaST, but there is no entry for the packman repo, vlc and ATI/Nvidia-Drivers are also missing. Will they work for/after the release? Im using RC2 and iirc Packman was still there for RC1.

[opensuse-factory] (K)Networkmanager dead after resume
by Markus Koßmann 05 Jul '10

05 Jul '10

I'am running 11.3RC1 on an Acer Aspire one D250 and I 'am using Knetworkmanager to setup my UMTS connection. This works fine in most cases but in about one of four times the KNetworkmanager applet shows "Netwerkverwaltung deaktiviert" ( translated : networkmanagement disabled) after a suspend to disk - resume cycle. After a reboot it works again as expected. Where should I start to debug that ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RC2 cannot boot from MD RAID, RC1 was ok
by Otmar Stahl 05 Jul '10

05 Jul '10

Hello, I installed OPENSUSE 11.3 RC1 x86_64 successfully on a DELL precision T1500 RAID system. After upgrading to RC2 with "zypper ref && zypper dup" the system does not boot anymore. The error messages are: RAID set isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0 was activated The dynamic shared library "libdmraid-events-isw.so" could not be loaded: libdmraid-events-isw.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Trying manual resume from /dev/mapper/isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0_part6 resume device /dev/mapper/isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0_part6 not found (ignoring) Trying manual resume from /dev/mapper/isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0_part6 resume device /dev/mapper/isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0_part6 not found (ignoring) Waiting for device /dev/mapper/isw_bacaiaeaja_Volume0_part7 to appear .......

(Y/n) part5 is /boot part6 is swap part7 is / part8 is /home It appears that / is not mounted properly. Is this a known regression from RC1?

[opensuse-factory] duplicate mount points
by jdd 04 Jul '10

04 Jul '10

It's not very important (at least for me), but could be if one wanted to use a script I have an USB 1.5TB HDD . It mounts on new mount point sometime: /media: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 106 juil. 4 13:03 .hal-mtab -rw------- 1 root root 0 juil. 4 10:53 .hal-mtab-lock drwxrwxrwx 14 root root 4096 juil. 4 13:10 maxtor-1to drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juin 26 17:15 wd-1.5to drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juil. 3 20:16 wd-1.5to-1 drwxrwxrwx 16 root users 4096 juin 1 21:07 wd-1.5to-2 see the wd-1.5to-x looks like hal (or other) create the mount point, but son't delete it after umounting any comment? nothing seen in bugzilla on this respect (11.3 factory) -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.facebook.com/pages/I-support-the-Linux-Documentation-Project/372… http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-fan-page-of-Claire-Dodin/106485119372062?… -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] shutdown/restart in gnome returns to login when using kdm on 11.3 RC2
by Stachel Drahtje 04 Jul '10

04 Jul '10

Hi, this is my first post and maybe this isn't a bug, and i'm doing something wrong amd i'm making a fool out of myself, so this is what i'm trying to understand: I install both gnome and kde 4 on an x86_64 machine with the 11.3 RC2. But i had this problem in 11.2 as well if my memory serves me correctly. The displaymanager is kdm. when i log in using the gnome windowmanager and want to reboot or shutdown the computer, it puts me back to kdm with the login prompt. I know the simple answer would be: use gdm; but shouldn't a shutdown/restart be possible when using gnome under the kdm displaymanager? kind regards, Natasha Ament -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

(I did not check this one, it might be daemon specific > (like ntp), but one with a deeper insight could check it). With a few excpetions, I find the current syslog settings to be quite good. For desktops and laptops, I don't touch them, for servers, I have one or two standard modifications. Overall, an optimal syslog setup depends entirely on what a system is used for. wrt your suggestions - I would prefer keeping crond messages in /var/log/messages - on a default system I don't see enough crond activity to warrant a separate file. (but there is already a commented out entry in syslog-ng.conf). Log auth and authpriv separately - yeah, why not. Filtering out messages from /var/log/messages if logged elsewhere - it's already being done for some, e.g. firewall and mail. To me, that depends mostly on volume and somewhat on purpose. Logging changes I usually do for a production system: disable separate logging for mail.<level>, disable separate logging for news.*, amend logrotate for our log archiving, to use lzma compression and to run at midnight. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (25.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 11.2 => 11.3 zypper dup question
by Greg Freemyer 03 Jul '10

03 Jul '10

All, I was just looking at the wiki entry for the coming upgrade: http://wiki.opensuse.org/SDB:System_upgrade In the 11.1 => 11.2 upgrade the wiki page showed something like: disable all repos add new repos zypper up zypper zypper dup In the current wiki page, the "zypper up zypper" command is gone. Is it not recommended to get zypper from 11.3 prior to doing the full zypper dup?
