[opensuse-factory] Tumbleed KDE GUI task-bar widgets in black and white
by Peter Mc Donough 04 Feb '17

04 Feb '17

Hi One of the recent updates turned all KDE/GUI task-bar widgets to undistinguishable black an white icons, luckily the functionality is unchanged. Example: I have Dolpin, Terminal, Firefox, and Write there, they look all the same. Does anybody else have the same "feature"? System, Tumbleweed/KDE updated. cu Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] set time format changes half of desktop language on plasma
by nicholas 04 Feb '17

04 Feb '17

in answering a question, i investigated Regional-Settings:format -> I changed to spanish (OP had done this by right clicking the clock) now about half of my destop is in spanish ie. the launcher, yast etc. for example clicking on RS:spell checker (corrector ortographico) many of the sub items are still in english looking at other settings: yast still claims english, RS:language still claims english. (spanish is not even listed as available) is this a bug or an irrational and unintuative interface design? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the Week 2017/05
by Dominique Leuenberger 04 Feb '17

04 Feb '17

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, The year has started in full swing and the last week brought you 6 snapshots (0127, 0128, 0129, 0130, 0131 and 0201). Snapshot 0202 was held back in order to fix some detected issues in the new boost versions. Nevertheless, you received some nice updates during this week: * systemd 232 – which resulted again in a lot of discussion around plymouth * Mozilla Firefox 51.0.1 – now with the GTK3 interface * Linux kernel 4.9.6 * sed 4.3 * KDE Frameworks 5.30.0 * KDE Plasma 5.9.0 And as you expect from openSUSE Tumbleweed, things keep on rolling and a lot is being prepared already in staging areas: * Linux kernel 4.9.7 * Libreoffice 5.3 * GStreamer 0.10 is no longer provided (since snapshot 0203) * rpm 4.13.0 – support for filetriggers * NetworkManager 1.6.0 Happy weekend ahead!

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed/X in VirtualBox
by Roger Oberholtzer 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

I have installed openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20170128-Media.iso into VirtualBox. Although the guest additions seems to have been installed, I cannot get X to start. I have all configured as I do for all other openSUSE releases that I run in VB where X starts okay. The host is the same for all VMs. It is only the Tumbleweed client that acts differently. Networking, shared folders and all work fine. It is only X that fails. I see that there is a difference in the X log between the working and non-working (Tumbleweed client) situation. This is what I get in Tumbleweed (X does not start): [ 157.390] (II) VBoxVideo(0): Creating default Display subsection in Screen section "Default Screen Section" for depth/fbbpp 24/32 [ 157.390] (==) VBoxVideo(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32 [ 157.390] (--) VBoxVideo(0): Virtual size is 32766x32766 (pitch 32766) [ 157.390] (**) VBoxVideo(0): Built-in mode "800x600": 29.3 MHz (scaled from 0.0 MHz), 36.4 kHz, 60.0 Hz [ 157.390] (II) VBoxVideo(0): Modeline "800x600"x0.0 29.31 800 802 804 806 600 602 604 606 (36.4 kHz b) [ 157.390] (**) VBoxVideo(0): Built-in mode "800x600": 29.3 MHz (scaled from 0.0 MHz), 36.4 kHz, 60.0 Hz [ 157.390] (II) VBoxVideo(0): Modeline "800x600"x0.0 29.31 800 802 804 806 600 602 604 606 (36.4 kHz b) [ 157.390] (II) VBoxVideo(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0 [ 157.390] (==) VBoxVideo(0): RGB weight 888 [ 157.390] (==) VBoxVideo(0): Default visual is TrueColor [ 157.390] (==) VBoxVideo(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0) [ 157.390] (==) VBoxVideo(0): DPI set to (96, 96) [ 157.390] (II) UnloadModule: "modesetting" [ 157.390] (II) Unloading modesetting [ 157.390] (II) UnloadModule: "fbdev" [ 157.390] (II) Unloading fbdev [ 157.390] (II) UnloadSubModule: "fbdevhw" [ 157.390] (II) Unloading fbdevhw [ 157.390] (II) UnloadModule: "vesa" [ 157.390] (II) Unloading vesa [ 157.390] (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp [ 157.390] (EE) Fatal server error: [ 157.390] (EE) AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 [ 157.390] (EE) [ 157.390] (EE) Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.x.org for help.

[opensuse-factory] After grub2 update today (about 50 files in total where offered amongst them grub) broken system.
by stakanov 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

You just see: welcome to grub. And then it is over, no selection, no boot. Just black screen. I guess I will have to fix with a reinstall (or does anybody have an alternative solution?). Formatting was LVM and EXT4 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 1. KDE Applications 16.12 => 16.08 // 2. Only update to matured versions of KDE // trigger warning!
by AW 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hi! Since December 16th Akonadi and (at least) kmail for many users are close to unuseable due to bugs in the akonadi ecosystem, e.g. see here: https:// bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374734 . I'd like to suggest to go back to the last stable version of KDE Applications, which probably was 16.08.*. I'd really like get rid of this (16.12.*) akonadi version and we can't expect a patch soon, because if patching were easy, six weeks would have been enough to patch it. Then I've had a look into the bug list of kdepim here: https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kdepim-bugs/2017-January/thread.html This is plainly alarming. So I had a look at earlier months' bug list, which didn't appear to have been much better. So much traffic about bugs for an basic application of the whole KDE system! To me it seems obvious that the development is in trouble and the monthly updates may any time break a working system. I can't and I won't blame anybody for the state of KDE. But from my point of view as a mere user, who'd like to have a more or less working computer, the poor condition of KDE Applications isn't compatible to a rolling release. So I'd like to suggest to change the way Tumbleweed provides KDE updates: Let's only have an update to a matured version, like KDE Applications 16.08.3 was and hopefully 16.12.3 or later will be. Same for KDE Plasma and KDE Frameworks. Sorry for my blunt words. If you, the community of openSuse, judge differently, no problem. I simply can go and install e.g. Leap. But I hope to be able to communicate my argument clearly, without offending someone: You can't call a distro a rolling release, while bugs render the email system close to unusable, for many users and many weeks.

Anyway, just add it in the grub config I'd say, you can always remove it again afterwards if it doesn't help. (it shouldn't prevent booting...)
