Having logs recorded in a non-text binary format tends to make MS logs out-a-sight, out-a-mind, where as I often go and poke around in /var/log and look to see if I notice anything 'new'. If I can't look at the whole stream as a text (messages, warnings, etc), I don't get a field for what is right or wrong behavior and certainly wouldn't be able to pick out an anomaly if I had to query each item separately -- that global view is a good way to look for 'warts'...

[opensuse-factory] OBS 2.4 is out!
by Jos Poortvliet 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

Hi all! After a whole year of hard work, toil, tears and sweat from all our contributors the latest release of the Open Build Service (OBS) is ready for you. Version 2.4 adds support for yet another package format, secure boot signing and Appstream app stores. It also brings a constraint system to better match build hardware to build jobs and includes a lot of speed improvements. OBS 2.4 is the latest, greatest and most rock solid release, and has been tested on reference server since January. We strongly recommended to update to this version. You can find more details in the announcement on http://openbuildservice.org/2013/04/30/version-2.4/ Have a lot of fun!

[opensuse-factory] [tumbleweed] setting NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER has no effect with NM 0.9.8
by Jiri Slaby 29 Apr '13

29 Apr '13

Hi, since NetworkManager update to 0.9.8.0 in Tumbleweed, my network configuration doesn't work anymore. It is because NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER seems to be ignored and dnsmasq isn't involved in the name resolution. IOW /etc/resolv.conf with 0.9.8.0 is what is received from DHCP and with 0.9.6.4 it is empty (as it is supposed to be). # zypper in -f NetworkManager-0.9.6.4-5.6.1 solves that... Some more info: # grep NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER /etc/sysconfig/network/config NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER="dnsmasq" NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER_FALLBACK="no" 0.9.8.0 (bad): # cat /etc/resolv.conf # Created by NetworkManager nameserver 192.168.0.1 # cat /var/run/dnsmasq-forwarders.conf cat: /var/run/dnsmasq-forwarders.conf: No such file or directory 0.9.6.4 (good): # cat /etc/resolv.conf ### /etc/resolv.conf file autogenerated by netconfig! # blahblah ... # cat /var/run/dnsmasq-forwarders.conf nameserver 192.168.0.1 thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] current tumbleweed problems
by Andi Kleen 28 Apr '13

28 Apr '13

- Any update needs a "while true ; do killall pango-querymodules-64 ; sleep 1 ; done" running in parallel, as pango-querymodules-64 always hangs forever for some futex. This is needed continuously when updating as it is called from mkinitrd, and mkinitrd seems to be called from all kinds of packages. Especially udev updates seem to call it a lot. - pulseaudio seems dead now. Simply no sound output. Direct alsa output works. If I strace the pulseaudio daemon it seems to transfer data and the volume/mute seems to be up too in a mixer. But I don't hear anything. Mainly a problem with youtube et.al. as flash seems to use pulse unconditionally now. -Andi -- ak(a)linux.intel.com -- Speaking for myself only. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
