[opensuse-factory] Cant switch to console anymore
by Malte Gell 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

I just discovered a strange problem. I wanted to go to the console, hit ctr-alt-f1 as usual, but nothing happens. I just can´t go to the console. I tried all f keys from f1 to f10, nothing works... The console is like locked up. I use the drivers from nVidia, any issues there? Using driver version 319.17. Kernel is 3.9.4-11.g51bf0ff-desktop on openSUSE 12.3 Tumbleweed. Do you have any clue what might be wrong there? Thanx Malte -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] The Python3 devel project will be devel:languages:python3
by Sascha Peilicke 12 Jun '13

12 Jun '13

Hi guys, since the Python bunch had the discussion recently, I want to drop all python3 package _links in devel:languages:python and use their counterparts in devel:languages:python3 as devel packages for Factory from now on. This would include a number of chgdevel requests for Factory [1]. The idea behind to have only python2 packages in devel:languages:python. Currently, this project reached a size where it became tedious to use "zypper up". However, we will continue to track spec files for both python versions at the old package location (d:l:p). It should be easier to keep spec files in sync this way and you can submit changes for both in a single submit request. So for the packager, this won't change much. If you add a python3 spec file, a project maintainer will branch it to devel:languages:python3 once your sr is accepted. If we end up in far distant future where only python3 matters and the py2 maintenance burden isn't justified anymore, both projects can become independent of each other. For that we would simply remove _link files to d:l:p. So if nobody objects, I'll do it this afternoon.

[opensuse-factory] What is the recommended procedure for suspending ?
by Malte Gell 10 Jun '13

10 Jun '13

Hi there, I made my experiments with suspending using the s2ram command. Now, the SDB says s2ram was deprecated: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Suspend_to_RAM s2ram is part of the suspend package. Can I now safely remove the suspend package? What is now the recommended way for suspending with kernel 3.9.x? What is the recommended command to suspend from the command line? Doesn´t pm-utils depend on the suspend package? Thanx Malte -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] remote logins have strange keyboard setting... mostly latin, but not sure what? after fact update
by Linda Walsh 10 Jun '13

10 Jun '13

I upgraded and rebooted my server this yesterday and have some oddness when I login to it remotely now -- at least until I type "reset". The most noticeable feature is some keys on my keyboard are remapped to some foreign keys...but NOT that many. Specifically, on the left, tilda and at sign ~@ => ß§ On the left side it's the brack/brace /backslash and vertical bar -> []\ => ÄÜÖ {}| => äüö ---- My keyboard/terminal is still set to a 'linux' terminal, and locale settings look like: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE=C LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= ---- If I type "reset", the terminal goes back to "normal". If I start an X11 app like gvim from the terminal BEFORE I reset it, the X11 app catches the weird characters as well. But if I type 'reset' (ncurses-utils-5.9 in /usr/bin/), it resets the term and then if I launch an X util, it's "normal". Anyone have an idea about what might be going on? Nothing in the environment before/after seems strange (this is how a pre-reset v. post reset looks from diff: GPG_TTY=/dev/ttyp2 ö GPG_TTY=/dev/ttyp1 HISTFILE=/home/law/.histIshtar_ttyp2 ö HISTFILE=/home/law/.histIshtar_ttyp1 PIPESTATUS=(Ä0Ü="0" Ä1Ü="0") ö PIPESTATUS=(Ä0Ü="0" Ä1Ü="0" Ä2Ü="0") PPID=79754 ö PPID=78347 SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-2FyrkLSyYB/age ö SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-lwihqyNyKw/age SSH_CLIENT='192.168.4.12 49606 22' ö SSH_CLIENT='192.168.4.12 49605 22' SSH_CONNECTION='192.168.4.12 49606 19 ö SSH_CONNECTION='192.168.4.12 49605 19 SSH_TTY=/dev/ttyp2 ö SSH_TTY=/dev/ttyp1 TTY=/dev/ttyp2 ö TTY=/dev/ttyp1 TTY_NAME=ttyp2 ö TTY_NAME=ttyp1 tty=/dev/ttyp2 ö tty=/dev/ttyp1 Even though the chars are displaying 'funny', they still seem to have their normal meaning and function. If I use a windows dumb term to ssh in, I don't see the problem, but it doesn't know how to switch charsets or do whatever "securecrt" or xterm is doing... I tried it from a different computer... same thing. it's definitely an update on the server that is causing this... its very weird. but fortunately not that difficult to get around...

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed really needed for rolling release?
by Malte Gell 05 Jun '13

05 Jun '13

I see the repos named "current" are just a link to the current available openSUSE release. Let´s assume I install openSUSE 12.3 and after installation I change the 12.3 repos to "current", won´t I get a rolling release this way? I mean, once e.g. 13.1 is out, it will be put in "current" and thus I get the whole distribution updated? So I would have a rolling release without adding the Tumbleweed repo? Is this thought correct? Just change the repos to "current" and you automatically get the lates distribution on your harddrive?

[opensuse-factory] tumbleweed: purge-kernels stopped working
by Benoît Monin 04 Jun '13

04 Jun '13

Hi, I am running tumbleweed with multiversion enabled for the kernel. Since a few kernel releases, purge-kernels stopped working, I have to remove old kernel packages with zypper. I have configured multiversion to keep the latest and the running kernel. After a reboot, the previous kernel should be removed, since the purge-kernels service is enabled. But even if I run purge-kernels manually, nothing happens and purge-kernels complains that the running kernel is not installed. It might be because the kernel name and the package name differ: There is an additionnal ".1" in the package name. Anyone else seeing this ? Below is the output of commands related to this problem : # zypper se -si kernel-desktop Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...

[opensuse-factory] Integration of YaST in Ruby into Factory/openSUSE 13.1
by David Majda 04 Jun '13

04 Jun '13

Hi, as some may know, since January few SUSE developers in Prague are working on automatically translating YaST codebase from YCP (an old proprietary language) into Ruby. The main goals are to give the platform a technology boost, so that we can evolve it easier in the future, and lower the effort spent on maintenance in the long term. The project recently reached an important milestone -- we are able to install a 12.3-based system using an installer composed only of translated YaST modules: http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2013-05/msg00026.html We would like to integrate that work Factory/openSUSE 13.1 soon. Technically the integration mainly means that we would do a final switch of the language to Ruby in YaST's Git repository and submit updated packages into Factory. We think we will be able to do this in time for M4. We'd also like to use M2 and M3 as test-beds and produce our own versions of the images (meaning we'll take exactly the same packages as in M2/M3, replace the YaST ones with Ruby version, and build the image in the same way as official images). We'd also like to use the openQA infrastructure to test our images extensively. We think that with this approach we'll be well-prepared for the final integration and we'll minimize the number of bugs and regressions. For more details about the plan and reasoning behind it, see my e-mail on yast-devel: http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2013-05/msg00035.html Since this is a big change, I thought it would be good to announce it here. If anyone has any questions or objections, please let me know so we can discuss them and possibly adapt the plan.

[opensuse-factory] Upgrading openSUSE 12.3 to Tumbleweed
by Malte Gell 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hi there, I just upgraded - or try to do so - openSUSE 12.3 to Tumbleweed. I now did the following, I deleted all 12.3 repos from YaST and then I added theses repos with the following priorities: update/openSUSE-current/ priority 75 update/openSUSE-non-oss-current/ priority 75 openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/ priority 79 distribution/openSUSE-current/repo/non-oss/ priority 80 distribution/openSUSE-current/repo/oss/ priority 80 And the Packman stuff, priority 81 (Essentials, Extra, Games, Multimedia). Does this make sense so far? After the updates, /etc/SuSE-release still says "openSUSE 12.3" and not Tumbleweed, in the Grub2 screen I also still see openSUSE 12.3. Does this not change to "Tumbleweed"? The latest stable KDE is part of Tumbleweed, I do not need seperate KDE repo for Tumbleweed?

[opensuse-factory] OBS downtime in about 8 hours
by Adrian Schröter 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

JFYI We need to move the data of the binary storage system to a new place. Therefore please expect a downtime in 8 hours between 22:00 - 1:00 UTC The server will be up most of the time, but server side builds will be disabled for a final sync for at least 1 hour. You can do any source or request operation during the time nevertheless. But do not expect that any job starts or the build state does change. We will have afterwards a bit faster binary backend and we will be prepared to split the binary backend using multiple hosts. This will allow us to scale better in future. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
