Hi, we had some openQA hardware testing in the past using the KVM2USB device [1]. Unfortunately that had some problems: * the driver was not open-source, so you had to ask the vendor to compile it for new kernels (every year after dup) * VGA capture only provided 3x6 bit per pixel with added noise, so we had to do fuzzy matching * had to manage CDs and power separately I know also that Alexander Graf looked into HDMI capture earlier, but FPGA-based devices in that area were rather expensive and complicated to get right. and I had experimented with USB-OTG keyboard+CD emulation during hackweek in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/tree/hidg Now thanks to Luca Beltrame, I discovered https://www.dennogumi.org/2021/02/dyi-kvm-over-ip-with-pikvm/ * based on Raspberry Pi 4 * HDMI capture over the camera input * fully open source * emulates keyboard+mouse+CD over USB-OTG (aka HID gadget mode) * provides VNC access and there will even be v3 hardware soon as a RPi-hat with integrated power control and less manual setup work. If we go this route and it is working, at some point we could replace the embedded ArchLinux with an openSUSE. This could finally ensure that at least some NVidia and AMD graphics cards keep working, with the possibility for some extra hardware testing for whatever Ethernet/Wifi/SATA/RAID/NVMe adapter is in the system under test.

Pattern for Cinnamon

by Axel Braun

Dear Geekos, openSUSE offers a variety of desktops one can install right from the same installation medium. However, while we claim that we package Cinnamon, there is no pattern for it yet, so there is no easy way to select the desktop for installation. We have created https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1181253 in case someone wants to help.... Thanks Axel

davfs2 - can't mount from /etc/fstab anymore

by Ulf

Hi Together, I reviewed my logs today and I find an error at daily script which safes the WebDAVs mounted data to my storage. If I mount manually like in the past # mount /mnt/webdav unbekannte Option symfollow. Aufruf: mount.davfs -V, --version : Versionsinformation anzeigen mount.davfs -h, --help : diese Hilfe anzeigen Um eine WebDAV-Resource zu einzuhängen, sollte mount.davfs nicht direkt aufgerufen werden; stattdessen sollte „mount” benutzt werden. mount <mountpoint> : oder mount <server-url> : hänge die WebDAV-Resource entsprechend den Angaben in /etc/fstab ein. mount -t davfs <server-url> <mountpoint> [-o Optionen] : hänge die WebDAV-Resource <server-url> in Verzeichnis <mountpoint> ein. Nur root darf dies tun. Optionen ist eine durch Kommas unterteilte Liste von Optionen. Mögliche Optionen: conf= : absoluter Pfad der Benutzer-Konfigurationsdatei uid= : Besitzer des Dateisystems (Name oder numerische ID) gid= : Gruppe des Dateisystems (Name oder numerische ID) file_mode= : Standard-Rechte für Dateien (oktal) dir_mode= : Standard-Rechte für Verzeichnisse (oktal) ro : nur Lesen rw : Lesen und Schreiben [no]exec : Ausführen von Programmdateien ist (nicht) erlaubt [no]suid : gesetzte suid- und sgid-Bits sind (nicht) wirksam [no]grpid : neue Dateien erhelten die gid des übergeordneten Verzeichnisses [no]_nedev : benötigt (keine) Netzwerkverbindung # cat /etc/fstab | grep webdav https://sd2dav.1und1.de:443/ /mnt/webdav davfs noauto,user,rw 0 0 Nothing changed on the setup or package. Only done the normal "zypper dup" and reboot at 1 o'clock if a kernel update is available. (Don't remind when this was done in the past) The first time it was present at 2021-02-07_03:00:01 (the day before it works fine 2021-02-06_03:00:01). Seams that one of the previous updates change something in the davfs2 dependencies are changed. PS: Anyway - if I mount different users at the same WebDAV source - the estimation of the df comand was wrong (for each one the same size). Regards Ulf

openSUSE:Factory - Build fail notification

by DimStar / Dominique Leuenberger

Dear Package maintainers and hackers. Below package(s) in openSUSE:Factory have been failing to build for at least 4 weeks. We tried to send out notifications to the configured bugowner/maintainers of the package(s), but so far no fix has been submitted. This probably means that the maintainer/bugowner did not yet find the time to look into the matter and he/she would certainly appreciate help to get this sorted. - LHAPDF - python-PyCBC - python-asyncssh - python-cilium-microscope - python-concurrentloghandler - python-django-redis - python-dtfabric - python-efl - python-enforce-pep8 - python-flake8-comprehensions - python-flake8-future-import - python-hyper - python-impacket - python-mautrix-telegram - python-minidb - python-napalm-exos - python-nose2pytest - python-onnx - python-oslo.messaging - python-pre-commit - python-pyIOSXR - python-pyfg - python-python-qnotifications - python-rpmfluff - python-stdeb - python-xcaplib - python-yappi Unless somebody is stepping up and submitting fixes, the listed package(s) are going to be removed from openSUSE:Factory. Kind regards, DimStar / Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar(a)opensuse.org>

Tumbleweed - Review of the weeks 2021/05 & 06

by Dominique Leuenberger / DimStar

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Apologies for missing the review of the week 2021.05 to be sent out in time. But as you already know from the past, that does not mean the information is being lost. I’ll just give you a review of the last two weeks instead. For Tumbleweed, this means we have seen 8 snapshots being published in those two weeks (0130, 0131, 0202, 0203, 0205, 0208, 0209, and 0210). The main changes included: * Mozilla Firefox 85.0 * Rust 1.49.0 * Python 3.8.7 * Bind 9.16.11: changed protection of/against “named” from chroot jail to systemd protection. This obsolete the subpackage named- chrootenv. * Linux kernel 5.10.12 * Pulseaudio 14.2 * Pipewire 0.3.20: pipewire is growing to become a replacement for PulseAudio * util-linux 2.36.1 * Mesa 20.3.4 * GCC 11 is now used to provide the base libraries, like libgcc_s1. GCC 10 is still used to compile the distribution * KDE Applications 20.12.2 * Systemd 246.10 The next snapshot to be published (20210211 or newer, depending on QA results) will be based on glibc 2.33. As is usual with a glibc upgrade, I triggered a full rebuild of the repository. So the next snapshot coming out after today will be big (in bytes) These changes are currently piled up for future tumbleweed snapshots: * glibc 2.33 (snapshot 0211+) * Postfix: change the default database format to lmdb, migrating away from BerkeleyDB * Linux kernel 5.10.14 and later * Libreoffice 7.1 * KDE Plasma 5.21: currently 5.20.90 being tested * openssl 1.1.1i, based on centralized crypto-policies package * Use GCC 11 as default compiler (Staging:Gcc7; we should finally rename that staging :P) Cheers, Dominique

rpm installation fails in TW / i586 container (cpio: utime failed)

by Martin Wilck

I'm trying to run 32bit Tumbleweed in a rootless container on 64bit Leap. Sounds crazy, I know, but I expected it to work. First thing if you try this, run echo 'arch = i586' >>/etc/zypp/zypp.conf otherwise zypper will try to install 64bit packages and fail. Anyway, even if this is fixed, zypper fails to install packages, the error is: Installation of gzip-1.10-6.1.i586 failed: Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: unpacking of archive failed on file /bin/gunzip;6025b6b5: cpio: utime failed - No such file or directory error: gzip-1.10-6.1.i586: install failed strace shows: [pid 31894] utimensat_time64(AT_FDCWD, "/bin/gunzip;6025b6e3", [{tv_sec=1612708086, tv_nsec=0} /* 2021-02-07T15:28:06+0100 */, {tv_sec=1612708086, tv_nsec=0} /* 2021-02- 07T15:28:06+0100 */], AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) I've tried to play around with security options, but this exceeds my knowledge about container operations.

Script to check Leap 15.3 build status and version

by Simon Lees

Hi All, Under Leap 15.2 (and tumbleweed) I was using the following API calls to create a gui that allowed me to check my packages were building and compare the version with tumbleweed to check if I wanted to update the package in Leap. https://api.opensuse.org/build/<project>/<repository>/<arch>/<package>/_status https://api.opensuse.org/build/<project>/<repository>/<arch>/<package>/_history During 15.2 development I was using the following values to achieve this "openSUSE:Leap:15.2" "standard" "x86_64" If I change the 15.2 to 15.3 in the repo name for 95% of packages I get "excluded" as the build result. Is there one set of values I an use here for all packages or do I need to know the origin repo, in which case how do I figure that out? -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
