xterm failure, "Selected font has no non-zero height for ISO-8859-1 encoding"
by Patrick Shanahan 13 Feb '22

latest Tumbleweed update (20220210), leaves xterm failing for me with "Selected font has no non-zero height for ISO-8859-1 encoding" and I find nothing seemingly relevant googgogling. has someone else encountered the same or have knowledge of a solution? tks, -- (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 oftc What sort of day was it?

Re... message from the grub2 underworld
by Ben T. Fender 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

I've been getting sporadic boot hangs and posted to the Devuan forum on account of it occurring only with my Devuan installation. The opinion there was that the problem was not Devuan 'as-such', me I haven't got the faintest clue because I was born that way :-) https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=4855 From my perspective of which the current moments are fairly typical as I'm running outside to do snow-removal https://imgur.com/uRNgqGr.png the problem is a non-event. When it does materialize I just reboot and I've never seen it repeat consecutively. I am however curious as to why a dev-name would at all get into the chain seeing that (after years of futile resistance bordering on violence) all the fstabs involved use only partition uuid. Maybe some Suse devs would like to look into it, time permitting I will supply what info I can.

problems making nvidia video driver work
by Patrick Shanahan 09 Feb '22

09 Feb '22

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.

If this is true then It seems to be result of repository mix I used during update process. I was to enable (only two options are use or remove repository). So I used all repositories used in damaged system including disabled repositories at time of crash and I added 4 repositories OSS, nonOSS, update and source/debug. I am to try to find problem making repository in list of used repositories on damaged system. >> Is there any revomendation, how to enable system recovery, plese? >> >> Crash was made by copying some system libraries to other system.- >> Maybe there was used move instlead of copy of the files > Could you not recover from a previous snapshot?

HIDPI?
by mh＠mike.franken.de 06 Feb '22

06 Feb '22

Hi *, recently I got a new DELL XPS 13 9310 2-in-1 with a screen resolution of 3840x2400. In the meantime I managed to get readable grub and console screens. I created a config file in /etc/sddm.conf.d with [X11] ServerArguments=-dpi 192 EnableHIDPI=yes which led to a readable sddm login dialog. But from this point on things started to behave really strange. After logging into plasma, I still get an unreadable small screen resolution. Nevertheless I managed to run systemsettings5 and set the scaling factor to 200%. After pressing "Apply" the screen switches to a much bigger scaling factor than 200% - just as if plasma had recognized the dpi server options at this point, too. After logging out an in, I again get an unreadable small screen resolution despite the fact, that the scaling factor is still set to 200%. What am I doing wrong here? TIA. Bye. Michael.
