Support,
a rather fresh 15.4, with a single nvme drive, was a fresh clean
install of 15.4 on it. the machine had lower ram back then. the yast
installer occupied the whole disk, creared FDE, I am not very familiar
with all these snapshots and lvme and mapper and such terms though.
bottom line is, the machine has gotton more ram by now, double the
size. the swap partition is exactly the old ram size, at the end of
the disk it seems.
the yast partitioner shows:
/dev/system is LVM is the full disk size (except for the efi system
partition at the very front).
this dev/system consists of root still almost the full disk, minus the
swap behin it, which is the old ram size.
now I wonder if i need to enlarge the swap area and how I would do
that? can this root stuff be shrunk again to make space for more swap?
the machine is a laptop which might not only run sleep and shutdown
but maybe also hibernate. i think this hibernate involves the memory
being dumped to swap or am i completely wrong? maybe I am. do i need
to worry about the swap size?
ty.
Support,
i can maybe use some new notebook (x64) which apparently would have a
multi touch capable display of some sorts. Does linux on the desktop
make use of touch screens as input devices or can use these devices in
any way? how is this designed in the system? is this maybe some usb
attached input device or possibly there are multiple ways vendors
implement this i guess.
any use to grab a notebook with a touch screen? or is this useless for
the normal linux desktop user? ty for insights.
Support,
i can barely manage clean install 15.4 with FDE full disk encryption
enabled. So far so good, let yast installer from a fresh leap 15.4 iso
usb stick handle all of the setup for FDE.
for a server or a remote machine it would be needed to allow this
server to un-crypt itself during bootup time.
i kind of briefly found about dropear or something for initialy
network (ssh) reachability of this early stage of the system and then
unlocking the FDE (luks?) and so forth.
anyone already doing this feat with leap 15.4 and have any comments or
hints about it or other alternatives and similar stuff?
e.g.
<https://www.cyberciti.biz/security/how-to-unlock-luks-using-dropbear-ssh-ke…>
can maybe the suse leap installer or addons modules or future projects
allow this feature and config this stuff for layperson?
tia and ty.
On this machine, running Tumbleweed, I have two network interfaces,
wired and wireless.
# firewall-cmd --list-interfaces
enp5s0 wlp2s0
But the YaST Firewall tool only sees enp5s0 (wired).
# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-interface=wlp2s0
Warning: ZONE_ALREADY_SET: 'wlp2s0' already bound to 'public'
success
There seems to be a discrepancy between the gui and the cli. I would
like the reassurance of knowing that both interfaces are protected by
the firewall, and would prefer to use the YaST gui for configuration as
I'm not yet comfortable with firewall-cmd.

Hi,

Is there a problem? status.opensuse.org shows a 'partial outage' for Nürnberg

Hi *,
is there something wrong with the opensuse-factory list?
I didn't get any mails lately and the webpage also doesn't show new mails
since Friday, 29th.
All other lists seem to work.
TIA.
Bye.
Michael.

Why do those keys not work on a fresh install of openSUSE?

I never had a problem switching between none and duplex printing until
recently. Now, whenever I request duplex print mode, it now always prints
single sheet mode.
The printer is a Brother HL-2270DW. I have upgraded to the latest Brother
drivers, created a 'new' printer to use, yet the problem persists. I tried
printing under Windows 10, which works perfectly, so it does not look like
a H/W problem. I have reconfigured cups and the printer using YAST. It
still does not work correctly. I have looked in CUPS configuration files
but found nothing I could see to be a problem.
To get it to print duplex I have to go to the printer (via IP address and
browser) to specifically set duplex mode. Then I have to unset it back
afterwards.
Alas, I am not fully conversant with printer configuring so I am at the end
of what I can try. Can anyone help or has anyone had this problem and got
past it? It used to work fine but no longer. Help......

Working on sorting out some printing issues in MicroOS Desktop, I wanted to set-up teh same configuration on a clean, fresh TW host (running in Virtualbox, but that should not matter):
Installation of Brother MFC9340CDW printer driver (worked)
test print - filter failed
changed cups log-level to debug, and got the relevant lines:

Funny enough, the same printer works on my TW host..... .ppd files are the same, I could not spot a difference so far.
Search in the net stated basically 'delete cups, gutenprint, etc and reinstall', but I feel that cant be the solution
Hints anyone?
