[opensuse-support] cron only likes certain jobs
by David T-G 03 Oct '20

03 Oct '20

Hi, all -- I'm stuck; it's time to come to the experts for help :-) I have a 15.1 live system jpo:~ # cat /etc/SUSE-brand openSUSE VERSION = 15.1 jpo:~ # df -kh / /dev/sdi[13] Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on LiveOS_rootfs 14G 5.5G 7.3G 44% / /dev/sdi1 912M 912M 0 100% /run/initramfs/live /dev/sdi3 14G 5.5G 7.3G 44% /run/overlayfs that will eventually be a little server, and cron mysteriously only likes certain jobs. My (root) crontab looks like this: jpo:~ # crontab -l #mi hr dm mo dw cmd... # # is cron running? 01 * * * * date >$HOME/.cron.out # nightly cleanup/checkup 04 04 * * * /usr/local/bin/nightly.cleanup # cron tests 41 11 29 09 * /root/tmp-touch-root 41 11 29 09 * /usr/local/bin/tmp-touch-local 41 11 29 09 * /mnt/Raid1md/tmp-touch-Raid1 It quite happily runs the hourly heartbeat and the nightly cleanup jpo:~ # ls -l ~/.cron.out /mnt/Raid1md/cleanup/.find-print -rw-rw---- 1 root root 625767441 Sep 27 05:53 /mnt/Raid1md/cleanup/.find-print -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29 Sep 28 22:01 /root/.cron.out but I can't for the life of me get it to run other scripts. This started as a problem with just a single sync script running from the /mnt/Raid1md volume, but I've simplified it from there. None of the three touch scripts listed above works! I set up runs for 11:41 and then waited, but I got no results. jpo:~ # date Tue Sep 29 11:40:13 UTC 2020 jpo:~ # ls -l /root/tmp-touch-root /usr/local/bin/tmp-touch-local /mnt/Raid1md/tmp-touch-Raid1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Sep 29 11:39 /mnt/Raid1md/tmp-touch-Raid1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 32 Sep 29 11:38 /root/tmp-touch-root -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Sep 29 11:39 /usr/local/bin/tmp-touch-local jpo:~ # tail /root/tmp-touch-root /usr/local/bin/tmp-touch-local /mnt/Raid1md/tmp-touch-Raid1 ==> /root/tmp-touch-root <== #!/bin/sh touch /tmp/touch-root ==> /usr/local/bin/tmp-touch-local <== #!/bin/sh touch /tmp/touch-local ==> /mnt/Raid1md/tmp-touch-Raid1 <== #!/bin/sh touch /tmp/touch-Raid1 jpo:~ # date Tue Sep 29 11:41:18 UTC 2020 jpo:~ # ls -l /tmp/touch* ls: cannot access '/tmp/touch*': No such file or directory The crazy thing, though, is that the scripts get called ...

[opensuse-support] zypper/Yast update halts for minutes

[opensuse-support] trying Leap
by Doug McGarrett 24 Sep '20

24 Sep '20

I have been bombarded with requests to abandon TW and use Leap. Well, I have installed it on a drive in another computer, and it seems quite familiar, but now I have to populate it with apps that I use and like. The first, of course, is Thunderbird. Is that hiding in some repo that I don't know how to access, or must I find it in the wild and bring it home to roost? Someone said I should keep a diary--I don't disagree, but any approach to a diary for me is bassed on being able to print to paper and punch the paper and put it in a binder. Note the word "print!" As an example of what I don't have printed out, I think someone here told me how to access all the built-in repos. I will need that right away so as to install as much as possible from natively stored versions of the apps I want to use, before going to the wild. I will, of course, refer to section 7 of the Leap "manual" to try harder to install the printers, but just trying cold- turkey yields nothing. Can't find a printer. Both are turned on. As it seems there are no upgrades for Leap, how do I install Artha? Zypper can't find it. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] Slow shutdown - "stop job running for /run/user/<user_id>"
by Rodney Baker 23 Sep '20

23 Sep '20

Hi all, For some time I've been seeing shutdown delays of up to 2min 30 sec on Tumbleweed. The system reports, "A stop job is running for /run/user/<user_id> min:sec (counting down)", where min:sec can be anywhere up to 2-3 minutes. Once this timer runs down, shutdown proceeds as normal. If I log out of the desktop session first, then log into a VTY session as root and enter "Poweroff", shutdown takes less than 10 seconds. My guess is that there is a race condition going on with some process still holding a file open in /run/user/<user_id> (whcih is a tmpfs file system, when the system is attempting to destroy it, but I have been so far completely unsuccessful in identifying what that could be. I've even tried enabling a debug terminal session on VTY9 but that's given no clue, either. How should I go about debugging this? So far, I don't even have enough information to raise a useful bug report (if one is even justified, given that it could be a local config issue rather than something systemic with Tumbleweed).

Doug, What time zone are you in? I am in PST at the moment - so if you are in US time - and willing to work out your issues over the on-line meeting - I would be happy to help. I do not use Tumbleweed, but I am pretty familiar with leap releases and general opensuse administration tools, documentation and troubleshooting. If that is something you would be interested in.

[opensuse-support] where should .ppd files be put
by Doug McGarrett 12 Sep '20

12 Sep '20

I'm trying to install two printers, for which I have .ppd.gz files. The printers that apparently exist in TW dated 2020-0826 are mostly obsolete. There is nothing listed for Epson at all. It seems that in a previous generation of TW, there was at least a listing of my HP printer, and someone on the list pointed out where it was, but the Find Files app cannot find any other listing now. (There is only one HP--a color laser.) I need to install an HP LaserJet Pro M201dw and an Epson WP4530 all-in-one, including the scanner on it. All input greatly appreciated. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] leap 15.2 - what controls access from remote session (ssh/vnc) to local sound devices?

Hi, I am trying to play local sound initiated from remote shell (vnc and ssh). Imagine using headless PC connected to speakers. Can someone point me in the right direction as to what prevents the local audio devices being visible in vncserver on leap 15.*? All I see is dummy sound output device and I cannot make any sound through that.

[opensuse-support] LEAP 15.2 - journald and udevd won't start after last update
by mh＠mike.franken.de 11 Sep '20

11 Sep '20

Hi *, yesterday I updated one of my LEAP 15.2 machines. The machine rebootet into maintenance mode afterwards, but I wasn't able to do anything, because the keyboard also wasn't functional. There were error messages on the console regarding systemd-journald and systemd-udevd, which both failed to start. I was not able to recover from this situation, except by recovering the machine from the latest backup. Afterwards everything was back to normal - the machine came up as usual. I then retried the update and saw, that systemd-journald and systemd-udevd even refused to restart during this update. So I have a running machine now without those services, but I suppose, it won't reboot any more as before. Both services gave errors like this: Main PID: 18098 (code=exited, status=228/SECCOMP) Is that only my machine that shows those errors? I didn't read anywhere here in the lists about a problem like that. The internet, though, lists a few occasions, where problems like that happened. Any idea, what to do besides recovering again and don't update for a while? TIA. Bye.

[opensuse-support] GRUB(?) config to boot without splash

Hi, all -- I had occasion to reboot today after updating (side note -- I would LOVE it if I could say "no, I don't want to reboot just now, so let's leave out those updates this time" *sigh*) and once again had to hit Esc to dump the splash screen and actually see the boot progress. Yes, I'm an old-school text guy :-) Is there a [presumably] GRUB config that will skip the splash and stay in text mode until login time?

The person, the user, that is seated at the machine (the server in this case) who has an open and active desktop session. That user gets permission to use sound, video, cdrom, etc via policykit, I understand. The display manager (gdm, whatever) handles this. With remote sessions in a server you probably need some other method of getting those permissions, perhaps the traditional way of belonging to the needed groups. -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse-support] cpu temperature
by Doug McGarrett 09 Sep '20

I have had, in the last couple of days, a couple of incidents of system paralysis, where lights on the k/b flash, and the cursor disappears from the screen. This is on a "desktop" computer (that actually sits on the floor) that is only a couple of months old. Checking the temperatures with zypper shows the cpu temp is reasonable. I have installed hddtemp, but it wants a name for the ssd: linux1:/usr/sbin # hddtemp Too few arguments: you must specify one drive, at least.

[opensuse-support] hdmi 'exact duplicate' output to TV screen?

I used to be able to set this up 'relatively' easily, now i can't at all! Wanting to watch netflix i want exactly and all of what i see & hear on my laptop to be seen and heard on the TV (fed via an AV-tuner/amp into which the other end of my hdmi csable plugs). As it is, I cannot see results on the TV until i plug in the hdmi cable, but once i do, then the kde pagers shrink to unreadable size and the mouse shows on the TV only where there is only a partial duplication. (i use two vertical panels, one on each side).

[opensuse-support] exporting a kmail setup to another computer.
by Constant 07 Sep '20

Before going through all the hoops os a new setup I decided to export my existing kmail onto my laptop. Found the export instructions and made a nice zip (automatically) and copied that zip file on my laptop. Importing should be easy I thought but the import program did see all the data but at the moment that I decided ti import them I was surprised by the information that it could not read my zip file. And that although it read the contents without hesitation. What went wrong. Need some help.

[opensuse-support] Live-DVD
by ksusup 06 Sep '20

06 Sep '20

I booted a Live-TW in an attempt to fix a non-booting ssd with Leap and TW on it. If I do a "mount /dev/sdx /" followed by "ls /" I still get the live DVD root. If I do "mount /dev/sdx /mnt" then the partition lists with "ls /mnt". Why can I not change the system / to the partition I want? Also tried to get Yast to do a BootLoader routine, it seems to go through the steps but the ssd which remains unbootable ( I suppose iot was never written to). On all install/rescue/live/upgrade media I'd like to see an option "grub command line" from which a manual commanded boot could be tried. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] openSUSE Tumbleweed installation blocked by "Wrong Digest" error

Hi Folks, I'm trying to install openSUSE Tumbleweed on a laptop and the installation errors early on when its trying to refresh the https://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/tumbleweed repository details. The error message reported is: ---snip--- Wrong Digest The expected checksum of file /var/tmp/AP_0xp8UPnm/repodata/susedata.xml.gz is fa47ae8244fe7640f149d28964e604bf7e756da989d7e520f67216a96bb6cfb2, but the current checksum is 1f4dc420bfbf3d1b423cd7c4e1ca6aa25d7a13daff70c64e412f0ed449602406. The file has been changed by accident or by an attacker since the repository creator signed it. Using it is a big risk for the integrity and security of your system. Use it anyway?

Is there anything I can try to unblock the installation short of clicking the [ YES ] button and using the repo with the wrong digest?

[opensuse-support] Tumbleweed: rpm problem or Xsane cannot find scanner
by Peter McD 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hi, The scanner driver is an 64-bit rpm-package from Brother and works with Leap 15.2. An obvious difference to Tumbleweed is: After the installation with Yast I find under Leap in /etc/udev/rules.d/ /etc/udev/rules.d/55-brother-mfp-brscan5-1.0.2-2.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/55-libsane.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/56-sane-backends-autoconfig.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (441 bytes) After the installation with Yast I find under Tumbleweed in /etc/udev/rules.d/ just /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (zero bytes). I did a test and copied the files form Leap 15.2 to Tumbleweed to /etc/udev/rules.d/. Xsane worked(!) Finally I found libsane.rule and sane-backends-autoconfig.rules in Tumbleweed under /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/55-libsane.rules /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-sane-backends-autoconfig.rules Obviously for xsane to find it, /etc/udev/rules.d/55-brother-mfp-brscan5-1.0.2-2.rules should be at a different location. Solution, sort of: I copied the Brother driver in Tumbleweed to /etc/udev/rules.d/55-brother-mfp-brscan5-1.0.2-2.rules and linked /etc/udev/rules.d/55-libsane.rules -> /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/55-libsane.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/56-sane-backends-autoconfig.rules -> /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-sane-backends-autoconfig.rules Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, Using version 68, but the issue is old. Canadian English dictionary. I have the word "Telefónica" added to my dictionary, and thus the word is accepted as correct. But if I type "Telefonica" it flags it as incorrect and suggests "Electronica". Why? Bug? With English UK it accepts "Telefonica" as correct. "Telefónica" is also correct to it. With English USA it suggest "Electronica" as well. Only in Spanish it wants to correct "Telefonica" to "Telefónica". -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
