[opensuse-support] chrome based browsers - tabs crashing
by Ianseeks 23 Feb '20

23 Feb '20

Hi Since the last TW update, its impossible to use any browser that is chrome based, the tabs crash regularly, it doesn't seem to matter what website you are visiting. The tab will have either crashed before you visit it or during activity on the website. Firefox seems fine. Anyone having this issue? regards Ian -- opensuse:tumbleweed:20200220 Qt: 5.14.1 KDE Frameworks: 5.67.0 - KDE Plasma: 5.18.0 - kwin 5.18.0 kmail2 5.13.2 (19.12.2) - akonadiserver 5.13.2 (19.12.2) - Kernel: 5.5.4-1-default - xf86-video-nouveau: 1.0.15 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, the log of my TW machine (20200213) is full of this: Feb 21 08:21:55 lux kwin_x11[4232]: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 41786, resource id: 73400321, major code: 18 (ChangeProperty), minor code: 0 one message every 5 seconds, on an idle computer (at night) in DPMS suspend.

[opensuse-support] How/where to volunteer for opensuse documentation
by tomas.kuchta.lists＠gmail.com 19 Feb '20

19 Feb '20

Hi, Can someone point me to how/where to volunteer for documentation? I apologize if this list is not the place for my question - I would be happy to resubmit the question elsewhere. I was browsing the recent openSuSE news over the weekend and somewhere/someone (I cannot remember where/who) - mentioned it as number one priority/deficiency for the project. After sleeping on it, maybe I could help. Thanks, Tomas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] Optimus (nvidia) and bumblebee (or primus?)
by Peter Suetterlin 18 Feb '20

18 Feb '20

Hi list, I wonder if some here use Optimus laptops and can share some input. I do, and use bumblebee, because all I need it for is some single applications. suse-prime, which requires logging out and in, is therefore way too much overhead. I've read that newer prime versions do also support prime-run using render offload with nvidia drivers newer than some 435.xx But checking the opensuse pages on prime nothing of that is mentioned, and 'cnf prime-run' doesn't give any matches. So it seems I'm stuck with bumblebee (which I don't have an issue with). However, now there's kernel 5.5 (I run Tumbleweed). And the current version of bumblebee uses nvidia 418.113, which won't compile against 5.5 :( Naive as I am :o, I just pulled the RPM source for the kernel modules, changed the spec file to use 440.59 instead, and generated my own package for nvidia-bumblebee. It does install and compile the kernel modules without error. I can load them, also w/o error. BUT: It doesn't work :( woodstock:~ # systemctl status bumblebeed.service ● bumblebeed.service - Bumblebee C Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bumblebeed.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Tue 2020-02-18 11:14:04 CET; 7s ago Main PID: 28447 (bumblebeed) Tasks: 1 (limit: 4915) Memory: 1.7M CGroup: /system.slice/bumblebeed.service └─28447 /usr/sbin/bumblebeed woodstock:~% optirun --status Bumblebee status: Ready (3.2.1).

[opensuse-support] openSUSE Bugzilla unresponsiveness
by Mykola Krachkovsky 17 Feb '20

17 Feb '20

Hi, I know that it's known bug about openSUSE bugzilla site unresponsiveness which AFAIK linked to servers where bugzilla is located. But can't we really do anything with this? Maybe with some help of community. I've created bug report only now, though problem exists at least for 2 weeks, because when I try to do a search I don't get a result, but ERR_CONNECTION_RESET instead. I've made search today 3 times before error-free result, though I still not sure I haven't created duplicate, because I had issues with previous bug reports when I got empty search results while there were bugs with matching description and searching later showed them. When filling a bug report "possible duplicates" is empty often (for the same reason I think). Also, sometimes (not today) when creating bug report site shows error, you are creating report again, again, and then you got 2-3 identical reports, because they were created but you haven't got results with ID. This is kinda killing the mood of filling reports and making me sad, as I think it's better to keep bugs in bugzilla (or other issue tracking system), not mailing lists. So, this is partially just whining, partially a call to people to speak aloud what we (SUSE/openSUSE team and openSUSE community) can do about this. -- Kind regards, Mykola Krachkovsky -- Найкращі побажання, Микола Крачковський

[opensuse-support] GRUB2 boot from zstd-compressed btrfs
by Maximilian Trummer 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

With GRUB 2.04 finally supporting btrfs with zstd compression, I was thinking of switching my OS disk to that algorithm. I ran a quick test install of a VM with zstd'ed btrfs with Tumbleweed, and it failed to boot in a BIOS install but worked with UEFI. This seems to be the cause: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/grub2/0001-bt… Does this mean that using btrfs with zstd compression is fine when using UEFI? regards

[opensuse-support] Qt-Creator
by Doug Craig 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

To Whom it May Concern: I've been running Qt-Creator on Windows for years but six-months ago I switched to OpenSuse Leap 15.1 KDE. I've managed to get qt-creator installed on opensuse but I cannot get it to build/compile code without issues, many, many issues, 1000s of them. I've installed it from OpenSuse. I've tried downloading it from Open Suse's respository, from qt.io/Downloads, etc., I just cannot get it to work. At the moment I'm running it in VirtualBox 6.1 because it crashed my main HD so many times. Any assistance you could offer me would be greatly appreciated.

[opensuse-support] Category:Wiki_editing_help, and wiki editing pages, are missing markup help
by Felix Miata 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

https://en.opensuse.org/Category:Wiki_editing_help ought to have a pointer to the wiki markup language, whatever there is that catalogs equivlents to HTML, such as pre, code, strike, list, dd, dt, etc. I would put one there if I could find one anywhere, and I would to more wiki updating as I find necessary. If any exist, it/they are well disguised. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Audio_troubleshooting is in bad need of help from someone who actually knows audio setup. It has too many references to expired releases. Also, YaST for audio setup has apparently become or is becoming useless: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1163046#c10 -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse-support] Couldn't move remaining userspace processes, ignoring: Input/output error
by Ralph 11 Feb '20

11 Feb '20

There is a bug in kernel 5.5.2-2.1 in Kernel:/stable/standard that generates the title error message and has already had a patch created for it, per: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/14682 First question: since the version in stable was compiled well after the patch was made available, will that (stable) be automatically patched, or will it just 'age out', or should I file a bugzilla? Second question: is this bug just 'confusing people' as its originator says, or are there actually some bad things possible to happen running this kernel with this particular unpatched bug? I haven't noticed anything unusual yet but they sure seem to have rushed to fix it so... Thanks.

[opensuse-support][TW] Where did Plasma 5 system sounds settings go?
by Felix Miata 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

Weren't they in Notifications? That only has one selection screen now. There used to be a dropdown with many, in which a large scroll was required to find the one where startup sound and exit sound was enabled. I don't see anything else that makes any sense to contain these. Here are all shown in these two groups: Workspace: Workspace Behavior Window Management Shortcuts Startup & Shutdown Search Personalizations: Account Details Notifications Regional Settings Accessibility Applications Online Accounts -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
