[opensuse-support] Cannot complete registration with openSUSEforums
by JigsTheorem 13 Jun '20

13 Jun '20

Hi all I have a problem with Leap 15.1 and went to sign up with openSUSE forums. I received a validation email, which contained neatly ordered garbage but no validation code. The sender of this email is the webmaster from microfocus, but an email to that address just bounces. I have since discovered that openSUSE and microfocus are no longer associated. So, given that the validation process is broken, how do I get signed up to the forums?

[opensuse-support] Upgrade apache2-mod_php7 halts zypper on TW
by Jogchum Reitsma 14 Apr '20

14 Apr '20

Hi, For some time now when upgrading TW (which I do regularly using zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change) when it comes to apache2-mod_php7, zypper halts. That is, it ends with the 100% installed message, and than it stops. I have to "kill -9" it to free the terminal, and have to start zypper anew. Anyone any idea whit might cause that? cheers, Jogchum -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] cannot get updates
by mike 28 Feb '20

28 Feb '20

Hi, OK I don't know what happened but I cannot get a repository connection with zypper. I dropped my tv plan with xfinity and kept internet. Everything works like mail, web pages etc. However zypper claims it can't get a connection. The only clue is the system says locked by pid 3740 /usr/bin/ruby.ruby2.6 any help would be appreciated.......thanks, mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] riot-web

[WHY?: because moznet IRC is shutting down; luckily, freenode still works] >From https://software.opensuse.org/package/riot-web : "riot-web A glossy Matrix collaboration client for the web Riot (formerly known as Vector) is a Matrix web client built using the Matrix React SDK."

[opensuse-support] chrome based browsers - tabs crashing

Hi Since the last TW update, its impossible to use any browser that is chrome based, the tabs crash regularly, it doesn't seem to matter what website you are visiting. The tab will have either crashed before you visit it or during activity on the website. Firefox seems fine.

[opensuse-support] How/where to volunteer for opensuse documentation
by tomas.kuchta.lists＠gmail.com 19 Feb '20

19 Feb '20

Hi, Can someone point me to how/where to volunteer for documentation? I apologize if this list is not the place for my question - I would be happy to resubmit the question elsewhere. I was browsing the recent openSuSE news over the weekend and somewhere/someone (I cannot remember where/who) - mentioned it as number one priority/deficiency for the project. After sleeping on it, maybe I could help. Thanks, Tomas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] Optimus (nvidia) and bumblebee (or primus?)
by Peter Suetterlin 18 Feb '20

18 Feb '20

Hi list, I wonder if some here use Optimus laptops and can share some input. I do, and use bumblebee, because all I need it for is some single applications. suse-prime, which requires logging out and in, is therefore way too much overhead. I've read that newer prime versions do also support prime-run using render offload with nvidia drivers newer than some 435.xx But checking the opensuse pages on prime nothing of that is mentioned, and 'cnf prime-run' doesn't give any matches. So it seems I'm stuck with bumblebee (which I don't have an issue with). However, now there's kernel 5.5 (I run Tumbleweed). And the current version of bumblebee uses nvidia 418.113, which won't compile against 5.5 :( Naive as I am :o, I just pulled the RPM source for the kernel modules, changed the spec file to use 440.59 instead, and generated my own package for nvidia-bumblebee. It does install and compile the kernel modules without error. I can load them, also w/o error. BUT: It doesn't work :( woodstock:~ # systemctl status bumblebeed.service ● bumblebeed.service - Bumblebee C Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bumblebeed.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Tue 2020-02-18 11:14:04 CET; 7s ago Main PID: 28447 (bumblebeed) Tasks: 1 (limit: 4915) Memory: 1.7M CGroup: /system.slice/bumblebeed.service └─28447 /usr/sbin/bumblebeed woodstock:~% optirun --status Bumblebee status: Ready (3.2.1).

[opensuse-support] openSUSE Bugzilla unresponsiveness
by Mykola Krachkovsky 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

Hi, I know that it's known bug about openSUSE bugzilla site unresponsiveness which AFAIK linked to servers where bugzilla is located. But can't we really do anything with this? Maybe with some help of community. I've created bug report only now, though problem exists at least for 2 weeks, because when I try to do a search I don't get a result, but ERR_CONNECTION_RESET instead. I've made search today 3 times before error-free result, though I still not sure I haven't created duplicate, because I had issues with previous bug reports when I got empty search results while there were bugs with matching description and searching later showed them. When filling a bug report "possible duplicates" is empty often (for the same reason I think). Also, sometimes (not today) when creating bug report site shows error, you are creating report again, again, and then you got 2-3 identical reports, because they were created but you haven't got results with ID. This is kinda killing the mood of filling reports and making me sad, as I think it's better to keep bugs in bugzilla (or other issue tracking system), not mailing lists. So, this is partially just whining, partially a call to people to speak aloud what we (SUSE/openSUSE team and openSUSE community) can do about this. -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

[opensuse-support] GRUB2 boot from zstd-compressed btrfs
by Maximilian Trummer 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

With GRUB 2.04 finally supporting btrfs with zstd compression, I was thinking of switching my OS disk to that algorithm. I ran a quick test install of a VM with zstd'ed btrfs with Tumbleweed, and it failed to boot in a BIOS install but worked with UEFI. This seems to be the cause: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/grub2/0001-bt… Does this mean that using btrfs with zstd compression is fine when using UEFI? regards

[opensuse-support] Qt-Creator
by Doug Craig 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

To Whom it May Concern: I've been running Qt-Creator on Windows for years but six-months ago I switched to OpenSuse Leap 15.1 KDE. I've managed to get qt-creator installed on opensuse but I cannot get it to build/compile code without issues, many, many issues, 1000s of them. I've installed it from OpenSuse. I've tried downloading it from Open Suse's respository, from qt.io/Downloads, etc., I just cannot get it to work. At the moment I'm running it in VirtualBox 6.1 because it crashed my main HD so many times. Any assistance you could offer me would be greatly appreciated.

[opensuse-support] Category:Wiki_editing_help, and wiki editing pages, are missing markup help
by Felix Miata 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

https://en.opensuse.org/Category:Wiki_editing_help ought to have a pointer to the wiki markup language, whatever there is that catalogs equivlents to HTML, such as pre, code, strike, list, dd, dt, etc. I would put one there if I could find one anywhere, and I would to more wiki updating as I find necessary. If any exist, it/they are well disguised. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Audio_troubleshooting is in bad need of help from someone who actually knows audio setup. It has too many references to expired releases. Also, YaST for audio setup has apparently become or is becoming useless: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1163046#c10 -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse-support] Couldn't move remaining userspace processes, ignoring: Input/output error
by Ralph 11 Feb '20

11 Feb '20

There is a bug in kernel 5.5.2-2.1 in Kernel:/stable/standard that generates the title error message and has already had a patch created for it, per: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/14682 First question: since the version in stable was compiled well after the patch was made available, will that (stable) be automatically patched, or will it just 'age out', or should I file a bugzilla? Second question: is this bug just 'confusing people' as its originator says, or are there actually some bad things possible to happen running this kernel with this particular unpatched bug? I haven't noticed anything unusual yet but they sure seem to have rushed to fix it so... Thanks.

[opensuse-support] alternative ssh ports not set by yast in firewall
by Patrick Shanahan 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

Downloaded 20200207 Tumbleweed install iso chose firewall and open ssh port successfully completed install, kde/plasma5 configured NetworkManager (wireless) edited /etc/ssh/ssh{d}_config to alter ssh ports restarted sshd (and network/NetworkManager) no remote access via ssh opened "yast firewall" and saw that ports for ssh were blank added alter ssh port to the ports tab for every zone where ssh was passed. now have remote access via ssh. iirc, previously all that was necessary is to restart sshd and the correct ports were assigned from /etc/ssh/ssh{d}_config. is this a bug? is it related to moving /etc/services & company or a problem with yast or firewalld? or is <user/admin> now expected to make another configuration to enable alternative ssh ports? fwiw: firewall-config was not checked. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

06 Feb '20

My situation seems to be out of sync with that page. Brother-in-law's bad SSD originally used btrfs for 42.2, and eventually reached 15.1 in November. First I used ddrescue to clone from the bad SSD to another disk. Then I connected the other disk to a working 15.1 as sdb. These are the last steps from https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS that I've taken: # btrfs rescue zero-log /dev/sda1 # Then try to mount the device normally. If it works, stop going. What exactly is "mount normally" with btrfs? # mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt has apparently mounted / just fine, but /mnt/home is void, empty. It should contain what needs to be rescued. Is /home that lost, or is some further mounting step(s) required? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

Hi list, as in the topoic - I try to figure out where the rules are set by which systemd-logind grants access to devices like sound and video. The issue is that after some update, /dev/nvidia* is no longer treated by it, so stays unaccessible to users other than root:video It does work for /dev/snd/* and /dev/dri/card*, just not for /dev/nvidia* Any hints? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] measuring bandwidth in a month
by Felix Miata 04 Feb '20

04 Feb '20

How does one with unlimited/uncapped download bandwidth/data ISP service find out how much is being used in an average month? I expect to need to move soon, and cannot count on being able to find a provider without a cap in the locations I'm looking. I might have no choice other than Hughesnet. So, I need an idea how much I'm actually using. Is this something a router can track? Does a cable modem track it? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

[opensuse-support] Wifi access requiring wifi passwd
by Jogchum Reitsma 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

Hi, If I log in to my laptop, WiFi connection ask for the WiFi password. How can I prevent that, and enable WiFi connection for all users on login, without having to enter passwords? Saw several more or less comparable issues googling, and in this list, but didn't find a solution there. The laptop runs Leap 15.1, using Networkmanager to control the networks. regards, Jogchum -- 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 installation on Netbook
by Gerd Fleischer 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

Hi, I tried to install tumbleweed on my acer aspire one D270. 2GB RAM, 60GB SSD. On copying the packages it stops after only a few complaining no disk left on / (rsp. /var?). I used the proprosed layout with 2GB swap and 57GB btrfs partitions. Haven't tested other filesystems. Any hints?

[opensuse-support] bond interface slow on tumbleweed
by Peter Furgala 03 Feb '20

03 Feb '20

Hello, after clean fresh install of tumbleweed my bond-interface (4x1Gb Intel 82576) performs only about 60MB/s. All interfaces are up with the correct speed, no errors shown, all 4 IFs show packets with correct size, balacing mode is set correctly. Same config with Leap 15.1 made about 260MB/s. At the moment I operate with only one of the four interfaces up and get about 116MB/S what everyone would expect. Someone any idea ? best Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org
