Dual Monitor on tumbleweed
by Christian Schmitz 09 Dec '21

09 Dec '21

Hi everyone: I am trying to setup 2 monitors. The hardware is: AMD chipset, ATI video card screen 3 Vga monitor 20" ( 1600x900 ) screen 2 DVI-I to adapter to Vga monitor 14" ( 1024x768) I can use "display and rotation" program under TDE to get following setup: screen3 main monitor screen2 extended desktop But i have 2 problems and question 1) every boot the screen are cloned and not extended. How i can do to store permanently the extended configuration? 2) when the screen are cloned i see well into screen 2, but when i switch to extended the screen 2 the color are degraded like old 16 ega. How fix it? Other thing is that i perform this on TDE desktop, marking "override system setting" option. So the 3rd question is: 3) How i set on the system the dual monitor setup? Best Regards Christian -- Be Free, Be Linux

If you install read-edid and then run: sudo get-edid to find if you get any screen info on any I2C buses. If you do see info - decode it and see what the monitors are reporting. It works like this: > sudo get-edid This is read-edid version 3.0.2. Prepare for some fun.

Old Telegram in Leap 15.3
by Mykola Krachkovsky 07 Dec '21

07 Dec '21

Hi, telegram-desktop in Leap 15.3 has version 2.5.8 and it says it will stop working soon. As I understand, next versions need Qt 5.15 to compile. Is there any workaround for Leap 15.3? Installing from site (with bundled Qt) isn't very nice solution, IMHO. -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

openSUSE Leap 15.3 - hier science unstable: FreeCAD-0.20~pre
by michael.kasimir＠gmx.de 05 Dec '21

05 Dec '21

Hello all, after upgrading from Leap 15.2 to 15.3 FreeCAD doesn't work anymore either, although it worked fine under 15.2. I have directly applied to the maintainer about this behaviour. I got no reaction. I have FreeCAD newly installed from the following repo: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science:/unstable/openSUSE_Leap_… x86_64/FreeCAD-0.20~pre.1624371179.835e326652-lp153.265.2.x86_64.rpm The program starts without problems. However, when selecting the workbenches (workspaces in FC) the icons are grayed out. If I try to open any file the hourglass is spinning an nothing happens. The program execution seems to hang. In the .bash the following is displayed: $ FreeCAD FreeCAD 0.20, Libs: 0.20RUnknown © Juergen Riegel, Werner Mayer, Yorik van Havre and others 2001-2021 FreeCAD is free and open-source software licensed under the terms of LGPL2+ license.

Thank you Carlos, I am going to test your setup ASAP. I would have expected the "0"s to mean "unlimited" but I find nothing in the man. Are you on Leap or Tumbleweed? I'm on Tumbleweed.

No more available UIDs?
by Guadagnino Cristiano 02 Dec '21

02 Dec '21

Hi all, today while installing Citrix Workspace, the post-install script gave me this error: useradd: Can't get unique UID (no more available UIDs) useradd: can't create user So I examined the script, and saw that the command producing the error is this one: useradd -d /var/log/citrix citrixlog Trying to execute it at the cli gives the same error. This are the contents of /etc/login.defs FAIL_DELAY "2" GID_MAX "0" GID_MIN "0" PASS_MAX_DAYS "0" PASS_MIN_DAYS "0" PASS_WARN_AGE "0" UID_MAX "0" UID_MIN "0" Google does not help. What could be the problem? Thank you in advance Cris
