[opensuse-support] timidity crashes in TW
by Jogchum Reitsma 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

Hi all, In the last few snapshots of Tumbleweed, timidity is broken. Mostly I tend to start it as background server by issuing - as normal user - "timidity -B 0 -iA &". This gives now a segfault. Trying to play a file by issuing "timididy <somefile.midi>" also gives a segfault. timidity -v gives normal output: TiMidity++ version 2.14.0 Copyright (C) 1999-2004 Masanao Izumo <iz(a)onicos.co.jp> Copyright (C) 1995 Tuukka Toivonen <tt(a)cgs.fi> This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details. Any ideas? Bugreport, I would say. regards, Jogchum -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

"xhost" gives "command not found" so i guess it is not installed.

[opensuse-support] bad zypper search output formatting
by Felix Miata 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Is there any way to limit zypper search output to a reasonable number of columns for version? Git versions routinely triple the version column width, causing output to overflow 80 columns. Leap package strings are almost as bad, since virtually all include six arguably unnecessary characters that pre-Leap versions didn't require. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse-support] How to find wireguard repo?
by tomas.kuchta.lists＠gmail.com 11 Sep '19

11 Sep '19

Can someone help me to find correct way to search for wireguard repo on opensuse.org please? Wireguard website gives example of non-fqdn link to OBS. So, I have tried reliable OBS search at: https://software.opensuse.org/search - but failed to find anything. I tried searching for terms: wireguard, wire, guard, etc. with no results. What am I doing wrong - from google searches, I know that the wireguard exists in OBS, but cannot find it directly? Using third party links for software, especially something like VPN, is a security nightmare. So, I would prefer direct/correct opensuse way to do this. Any advice?

[opensuse-support] USB-C Power Delivery on Clevo laptop
by gumb 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

I'm really hoping Vinzenz from Tuxedo might be reading and able to help with this, but anybody else had any experience with USB-C and power delivery on Linux? I bought a secondhand Clevo laptop, originally from a specialist vendor (not Tuxedo) that's seemingly now defunct. It's a Clevo N131WU, the 13in model similar to Tuxedo's InfinityBook Pro 13: https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/en/Linux-Hardware/Linux-Notebooks/10-14-inc… Most of the specs are similar but mine only has 5Gbps USB-C instead of Thunderbolt. I also just purchased a Startech MST30C2DPPD docking station that comes with Power Delivery amongst other things. Seems I got burnt, since I get no power through it (Leap 15.1). That's the most critical thing I need so the dock's useless to me without it. What's more, the HDMI doesn't work either (I can switch the HDMI cable directly to my laptop and it's fine. It appears some Startech docks use DisplayLink drivers but I can't find info about that relating to this specific model). All the other ports work. I could live with having to plug the HDMI separately but without PD it's a brick. So before I send the dock back, I'm wondering if there's anything known about this in openSUSE / Linux. Is Power Delivery fully supported? Does it need a kernel tweak or special package? I tried searching for how to find out if PD is even built into this laptop but commands like lsusb don't seem to show anything pertinent. gumb -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] repeated segfaulting in zypper trying to upgrade 15.0
by Felix Miata 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

Because this first happened on a KDE3 system, I originally asked the following on the opensuse-kde3 list: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2019-08/msg00002.html http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/Leap/zyp-segfault-s150-big41-kde3.txt has the info about the first system this happened on with bits from zypper.log and journal. zypper -v up crashed a bunch of times trying to update. Rebooting twice after the first segfault didn't help. This has happened on more different installations than I can remember, probably at least 4. The current one isn't even my own PC, just my SDD, with TDE rather than KDE3, in another's, trying to troubleshoot its hardware. Are my systems special in this situation? Is no one else except me using solver.onlyRequires = true in /etc/zypp.conf? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

[opensuse-support] [15.1] nvme device names change while system running
by Ralph 07 Sep '19

07 Sep '19

[Leap 15.1, xfce, kernel 5.2.11-1.g6385110-default] I have a machine with 2 nvme drives, 1 in the built-in motherboard m.2 slot (grub2 boots 15.1,"SX8200NP"), other in an m.2 slot on a pci-e expansion card (boots 15.0,"SX7000NP"). The dev names of the 2 nvmes seem to keep changing within the same boot. Here's an example from the logs with the mb nvme first called nvme0 by the kernel, then nvme1 by btrfs, then nvme0 by both smart and btrfs. But the device according to yast is still nvme1. Confusing, to say the least. I need someone smarter than me (which is just about anyone) to tell me what is going on here. What have I done :( Devices according to yast2 (partitioner): Device: /dev/nvme1n1 Device Path: pci-0000:02:00.0-nvme-1 Device ID 1: nvme-ADATA_SX8200NP_2I4520013773 Device: /dev/nvme0n1 Device Path: pci-0000:05:00.0-nvme-1 Device ID 1: nvme-ADATA_SX7000NP_2H4220054168 according to the journal, in chronological order: kernel: nvme nvme0: pci function 0000:02:00.0 kernel: nvme nvme1: pci function 0000:05:00.0 BTRFS: device label openSUSE-15 devid 1 transid 778057 /dev/nvme0n1p3 BTRFS: device label openSUSE-15.1 devid 1 transid 37777 /dev/nvme1n1p4 (note: if not apparent, this below is / on SX8200NP) kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme1n1p4): disk space caching is enabled kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme1n1p4): has skinny extents kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme1n1p4): enabling ssd optimizations kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme1n1p4): disk space caching is enabled smartd[1494]: Device: /dev/nvme0, opened smartd[1494]: Device: /dev/nvme0, ADATA SX8200NP, S/N:2I4520013773, FW:SVN139B smartd[1494]: Device: /dev/nvme1, opened smartd[1494]: Device: /dev/nvme1, ADATA SX7000NP, S/N:2H4220054168, FW:CB1.1.1 (note: if not apparent, this below is / on SX7000NP and the journal entry appears to be triggered by snapper.

[opensuse-support] Wine experts? How to reconfigure?
by Peter Suetterlin 06 Sep '19

06 Sep '19

Hi list, I wonder if there's some wine experts around here? My issue: I have a wine setup here on my Tumbleweed system, slowly grown with various applications over three years. I'm now trying to run some new program (Maskulator, a fresnel propagation optics program). It crashes :( However, if I rename .wine to .wine.bak and then run the program, I get a notification it is doing some configurations - and now the program runs! But of course all my previously installed stuff is gone. Is there a way to merge old and new, or to enforce a reconfiguration of things? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] Tumbleweed: usb: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
by mh＠mike.franken.de 04 Sep '19

04 Sep '19

Hi *, on my DELL XPS13 9370 I get the message usb usb10-port1: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad? when connecting a device to the first (closer to the front) of the two Thunderbolt/USB-C ports on the left side. Is this a hardware problem or can it be a kernel driver problem? Thx. Bye. Michael. P.S.: Sorry if this is a double post - my original posting probably wasn't sent. -- Michael Hirmke -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org
