Hi, all --
I'm running Leap 15.2 (and this has been happening for a while), and
after a round of updates I have to go back to /etc/profile.d and
wipe out files that I don't want (alias.bash + ls.bash in particular).
Different from adding my own run commands to profile.local.sh thereunder,
I want to NOT get the stock stuff.
Is there any way to keep them from being dropped again so that I don't
have to deal with this over and over? *sigh*
TIA & HAND
:-D

have been using nvidia cards (and others) forever and had few problems,
but maybe getting old is now a problem.
have a new dell desktop i7-11700 with onboard intel RodketLake-S GT1 [UHD
Graphicks 750]
and nVidia GA104 [GeForce rTX 3060 Ti]
I entered the bios and configured using the NVidia card rather than Auto.
I have installed: kernel-firmware-nvidia 20211027-1.1
libnvidia-container1 1.1.1-4.1 (extra)
libnvidia-egl-wayland1 1.1.7-3.1 (recommended)
nvidia-computeG05 470.86-49.2
nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default 470.86_k5.15.1_8-49.4
nvidia-glG05 470.86-49.2
nvidia-texture-tools 2.1.2-2.3 (extra)
x11-video-nvidiaG05 470.86-49.2
reboot to runlevel #3 with nomodeset added to kernel boot parameters
as root issue: systemctl isolate graphical
prompt returns to tty screen but tty7 is blank with blinking cursor upper
left
I even installed kernel-source packages and tried the "Hard Way" which I
used to use, but failed with msg that kernel-source not configured ???
I have spent much tooo much time trying on my own to resolve this.
PLEASE help
tks,

Hi,
I have one PC that still runs Leap, and since the update to Leap 15.3 the number of unread
mails as shown in the Kmail overview is some random number that does not match the real
number of unread mails (which is usually Zero):

Selecting 'Mark read' from the context menu does not work, neither does akonadictl fsck/
vacuum fix the problem. DB backend is Postgres.
Any idea what else to try?
Cheers

Hi,
since some time I receive every now and then strange messages from teh kernel:
Message from syslogd@X1E at Dec 21 08:09:04 ...
kernel:[22896.715276][ C0] Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 20 on CPU
0.
Message from syslogd@X1E at Dec 21 08:09:04 ...
kernel:[22896.715282][ C0] Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
Message from syslogd@X1E at Dec 21 08:09:04 ...
kernel:[22896.715283][ C0] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
The Laptop - ThinkPad X1 Extreme running TW - was on low power last night,
hibernated, and on shore power since 30 minutes.
Power settings are 'standard'.
However, my impression is, that on battery mode the Laptop consumes more power
than usual. Was there a change in powermanagement recently?
Expected: ~ 15W
Actual: ~25W
It takes 25W with Nvidia Card enabed, according to prime -select, nvidia card
is turend off
OK, these are already 2 questions, but from the same area.

Just noticed when trying to play a youtube video on firefox that I no
longer have any sound. I see that pulseaudio is now pipewire but that
does not mean much to me. It does seem that sound have failed very
recently, last several days.
speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav
fails
speaker-test -c8 -l5 -twav -D plug:surround71
provides "Front Left" and "Front Right" from my attached speakers
speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav -D hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=1
provides "Front Left" and "Front Right" from my second display (TV).
the system tray audio speaker button displays a diagonal red line
indicating mute but mute is not selected.
does this provide information which will help solve my provlem?
tks,

What sort of day was it? A day like all days, filled with
those events that alter and illuminate our times...
This multi-boot machine runs three separate instances of openSUSE - Leap
15.3 (default); Leap 15.2 (deprecated); Tumbleweed (for fun)
Each installation uses the KDE Plasma desktop
Recently – I can’t say exactly when but in the last few days – I‘ve lost
sound in the 15.3 default installation. 15.2 and Tumbleweed remain OK.
In each of the three cases including 15.3, KDE’s Audio module in System
Settings reports “built-in audio” (from the motherboard), with output
analogue stereo. Oddly, perhaps, the Yast sound module shows the
soundcard as “not configured” in all three.*
What I don’t get is how sound can work without configuring the sound
card through YAST in two of the installations but not the third. More
particularly, I can’t see what might have changed in the 15.3
installation to stop it working, where it worked until recently.
Any suggestions? Preferably in words of one syllable, since I’m a bear
of very little brain.
………………..
*Any attempt to recover the situation by configuring the card through
YAST in the 15.3 installation returns “An error occurred during the
installation of Comet Lake PCH cAVS. The kernel module snd-sof-pci for
sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect
module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.”

I don't know if this is a plasma or a
suse issue...
When user launches dolphin-su a little alert
appears, which is a useful flag but I used to
have an even better one that could not be
just clicked OFF and forgotten. I used to set,
as root, a background color of reddish orange
so that when any user called dolphin-su that
window would be in root's colours. UNFORTUNATELY
this feature is now dead, dolphin-su shows up
indistinguishably dressed in user colors :-(
I have following issue but I do not know were I can find useful logs to
understand what is going on.
My machine is a very standard Gigabyte Mainboard with integrated Ethernet.
Only one NIC is present on the system.
The issue started about 3 month ago, I always wanted to investigate but I am
too annoyed now, so I really want to solve it.
Take a typical start up: the machine is on a dlan Ethernet were a Devolo 1200
(with a small OpenWRT like OS running on it) is managing the Ethernet
interface.
When I start up, the system (with wicked as network setup, there is no WLAN on
the machine) boots fine. But when arriving at the Plasma desktop you have no
network.
If you try to restart networking services (e.g. sudo rcnetwork restart) it
does but you do not have network.
I also tried to restart every wicked service in yast but no network and no
error log.
But if you simply reboot the machine all works as expected.
Now I tried this also without a graphical user session, it is the same, so the
issue is IMO not bound to Plasma. I thought it might be that this is a timeout
with the dlan being in energy saving at the first bood and awaken at the
second. But wouldn't wicked wait until the interface has an address?
Wouldn't it complain logging clearly in journalctl?
Anybody else in the past encountered such an issue?
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
This is not a question or bugreport, just information for some people that
might be unaware or wondering.
With TLP 1.4 (from snapshot 20211210 or later) there are some new defaults:
SOUND_POWER_SAVE_ON_AC=1 (was 0) [1]
and
RUNTIME_PM_DRIVER_DENYLIST="mei_me nouveau radeon" (was "amdgpu mei_me nouveau
nvidia pcieport radeon") [2]
for my laptop with nvidia optimus and binary proprietary driver these changes
lead to 2 problems:
1. Even though NVidia dGPU runtime_status was suspended and there was a 0% in
powertop, in reality it was always powered on — hardware LED, temperature. And
I couldn't switch it off (I'm using Linux PM, not bbswitch). Not sure why tlp
broke all power management of NVidia GPU, maybe will check it later.
2. Before each audio usage there was cracking sound and snd_hda_intel
power_save was 1 even when AC is on. Documentation [3] says "Power saving mode
may cause slight clicks" but for me they aren't slight but **very** audible
and unpleasant.
So restoring those values to 1.3 defaults (/etc/tlp.conf or /etc/tlp.d/) fixed
things for me.

Why is this happening? (¹)
Is it a sort of new feature?
How to correct since it never occurred before?
To restart my keyboard I need to input: "pkill agetty"
