[opensuse-support] KOrganizer: Meeting requests off by one hour
by mh＠mike.franken.de 25 Aug '20

25 Aug '20

Hi *, I already filed a bug report, but I wanted to ask, if I am the only one facing this problem: Not exactly sure, when this started, but in the last few days I observed, that meeting requests are off by one day, when sent from KOrganizer/Kontact. This does not happen for example with Evolution. To reproduce: Schedule a meeting for today with some attendees, look at the mail that was sent, you'll find a "corrected" date to yesterday. The meeting request arrives in the attendees' mailboxes with this "corrected" date. I was in serious trouble, because all my vacation requests to my company had the wrong date 8-( Thx andy bye.

[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] Plasma5/kscreen losing primary resolution under Leap 15.1
by Daniel Morris 11 Jun '20

11 Jun '20

Can anyone suggest how to debug and lock my monitor configuration? I've recently bought a great AOC Q3279VWFD8 monitor to work from home (no prizes for guessing why), which can be driven at 2580x1440 @75Hz via DisplayPort from onboard Intel graphics (Core i5-2500K) with an H67M-GE/HT motherboard. Most time the monitor sleeps it wakes up at a lower resolution (typically 1920x1080, but 1024x768 for extra annoyance). Occasionally I can reconfigure it back up with System Settings -> Display & Monitor. Often I have to repeatedly trick it by powering the monitor off and on, and sometimes it can then be stepped back up to 2580x1440. Often it gets stuck at something like 1920x1080 @ 30Hz. Options are restarting Plasma or letting it go to sleep and reconfigure (not guaranteed). Looking in the journal I can find references to: kdeinit5[6968]: kscreen: Requesting missing EDID for outputs (66, 70) org_kde_powerdevil[7047]: kscreen: Requesting missing EDID for outputs (66, 70) systemsettings5[5381]: kscreen: Requesting missing EDID for outputs (66, 70) As an aside, I have a second monitor 1920x1080 to the right, via HDMI. According to the manual my motherboard will only support two outputs (of the four). The second monitor is only needed a few times a week when puzzling over accounts/spreadsheets. I've read around and the various conflicting advice and trails for multi-monitor & Plasma issues go back years. I'm at a bit of a loss to know which bit of behind the scenes magic is going wrong, as I haven't had to concern myself with this kind of setup since the CRT days! I suspect the monitor isn't replying in time with its capabilities. Here's the xrandr output (listing modes) from it working nicely: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 4664 x 1588, maximum 8192 x 8192 VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1 connected 1920x1080+2744+508 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 598mm x 336mm 1920x1080 60.00*+ 1680x1050 59.88 1280x1024 75.02 60.02 1440x900 59.90 1280x960 60.00 1280x800 59.91 1152x864 75.00 1280x720 60.00 1024x768 75.03 70.07 60.00 832x624 74.55 800x600 72.19 75.00 60.32 56.25 640x480 75.00 72.81 66.67 59.94 720x400 70.08 DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP-2 connected primary 2560x1440+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 725mm x 428mm 2560x1440 59.95 + 74.97* 1920x1080 60.00 60.00 50.00 59.94 1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94 1280x1440 59.91 1680x1050 59.95 1280x1024 75.02 60.02 1440x900 59.89 1280x960 60.00 1280x720 60.00 60.00 50.00 59.94 1024x768 75.03 70.07 60.00 832x624 74.55 800x600 72.19 75.00 60.32 56.25 720x576 50.00 50.00 50.00 720x480 60.00 60.00 59.94 59.94 59.94 640x480 75.00 72.81 66.67 60.00 59.94 59.94 720x400 70.08 2560x1440_74.97 74.89 DP-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) And here's xrandr output when not working nicely: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 4664 x 1588, maximum 8192 x 8192 VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-1 connected 1920x1080+2744+508 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 598mm x 336mm 1920x1080 60.00*+ 1680x1050 59.88 1280x1024 75.02 60.02 1440x900 59.90 1280x960 60.00 1280x800 59.91 1152x864 75.00 1280x720 60.00 1024x768 75.03 70.07 60.00 832x624 74.55 800x600 72.19 75.00 60.32 56.25 640x480 75.00 72.81 66.67 59.94 720x400 70.08 DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP-2 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 725mm x 428mm 1920x1080 60.00* 60.00 50.00 59.94 1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94 1280x1440 59.91 1680x1050 59.95 1280x1024 75.02 60.02 1440x900 59.89 1280x960 60.00 1280x720 60.00 60.00 50.00 59.94 1024x768 75.03 70.07 60.00 832x624 74.55 800x600 72.19 75.00 60.32 56.25 720x576 50.00 50.00 50.00 720x480 60.00 60.00 59.94 59.94 59.94 640x480 75.00 72.81 66.67 60.00 59.94 59.94 720x400 70.08 DP-3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) Between it being bad I tried the following (having created a modeline from cvt when it was previously good - and modelines seem odd in the days of panels/non-CRT, but I haven't been paying attention): $ xrandr --newmode "2560x1440_74.97" 397.00 2560 2760 3040 3520 1440 1443 1448 1506 -hsync +vsync $ xrandr --addmode DP-2 2560x1440_74.97 $ xrandr --output DP-2 --mode 2560x1440_74.97 xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed # put up with it to do some critical email # made a coffee & swapped a 3D print # powered monitor up and reset several times # switched on second monitor # mashed the keyboard/wiggled mouse/switched off and on again # jumped to VT1 and got prompt mirrored on both monitors # reconfigured successfully with System Settings -> Display & Monitor I'm expecting at least another 10 weeks of working from home, and this is getting really irritating.

[opensuse-support] Fonts quality after update to libfreetype6 2.10 in Leap 15.1?
by Andrei Borzenkov 30 May '20

30 May '20

Anyone noticed the difference? There are forum posts and I was hit by this issue as well. To me it looks certainly worse and I was not able to get the same look with libfreetype6 2.10 and I had with 2.9. I attached two screenshots to https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1172148 of the same terminal content using two different library versions. If anyone has suggestion how to get the same result with 2.10 as I had with 2.9 I am grateful. I never configured anythjing explicitly, it is default Xfce installation without any customization. I do not actually know how to customize fonts (or, better said, I cannot predict what effect changing individual parameters would have). For now I locked libfreetype6, but with 15.2 not far away ... Interesting that I do not see the same effect in TW, so it could be something specific to Leap (may be some other libraries that do not work correctly with new libfreetype6). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] LANG=POSIX instead of wanted en_US.UTF-8
by Vojtěch Zeisek 27 May '20

27 May '20

Hello, on relatively simple minimal installation (small web server in VM) on Leap 15.1 I try to install GitLab, but it complains: Environment variable LANG specifies a non-UTF-8 locale. GitLab requires UTF-8 encoding to function properly. Please check your locale settings. So I checked settings: # locale LANG=POSIX LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC="POSIX" LC_TIME="POSIX" LC_COLLATE="POSIX" LC_MONETARY="POSIX" LC_MESSAGES="POSIX" LC_PAPER="POSIX" LC_NAME="POSIX" LC_ADDRESS="POSIX" LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX" LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX" LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX" LC_ALL= # localectl status System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 VC Keymap: us X11 Layout: n/a # cat /etc/locale.conf LANG=en_US.UTF-8 # echo $LANG POSIX I changed all LC_* variables to en_US.UTF-8 in YaST /etc/sysconfig Editor, so it seems to be correct in /etc/sysconfig/language but there is no change in the above outputs. Not even after reboot. ;-) It seems it helps if I manually export LANG='en_US.UTF-8', but this seems bit weird to me. I'd have to do such export after every boot. GitLab is the first application to complain, everything else works well, no problems with locales, encodings or so. But still, I wonder how to properly set locales to en_US.UTF-8...? I'd expect YaST to do the job. Yours, -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/
