IO or IRQ conflict after installing nVidia geForce 2060 RTX card
by J Leslie Turriff 18 Apr '21

18 Apr '21

I recently installed an nVidia geForce 2060 RTX graphics card that I want to dedicate to a virtual machine, but now my built-in Intel sound device stopped working. I opened YaST => Sound, deleted the Intel sound device, then attempted to set it up again with the Edit button. After a moment I got the message, | An error occurred during the installation of | | 200 Series PCH HD Audio | | The kernel module snd-hda-intel for sound support | could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect | module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. What's the best way to fix this? Leslie -- openSUSE Leap 15.2 x86_64

Thunderbird characters size not adjustable
by Marco Calistri 18 Apr '21

18 Apr '21

Hello, Somebody could tell me if I have any chance to adjust Inbox messages characters size whose source contains: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Messages coming sent with the above format are not adjustable in characters size by Thunderbird: they stay the same and too small for reading. I say this because if the format of source message is different, as for example: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252"; format="flowed" Content-Language: en-US Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Then the size of the characters size is adjustable and adequate for an optimal reading. I remember this is a very old problem of Thundebird I faced from the very beginning many years ago. Thanks, -- Marco Calistri Build: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20210408 Kernel:5.11.11-1-default Desktop: XFCE (4.16.0)

Gnome extensions not working on 20210414 / Gnome 40
by Robert Munteanu 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

Hi, After upgrading to the latest snapshot I can't see to get any Gnome extension to work. I was previously using https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support/ https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1422/stocks-extension/ Now when I visit the installed extensions web page [1] all extensions are disabled. If I try to enable then, nothing happens in the UI. In the page they show as enabled until I refresh the page. I've tried with the extensions I mentioned above and the 'system' extension SLE Classic - no luck. I've tried the following: 1. uninstalling/reinstalling from the gnome.org extensions website I get an 'Install extension' prompt, something seems to be happening, and looking at the system journal it downloads and unpacks it but then nothing. The last line is usually extracting: $HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/stocks(a)infinicode.de/metadata.json 2. restarting gnome-shell using alt-F2 and r 3. checking for errors using looking glass alt-F2, lg, then 'Show Errors' for the extensions, and for all extensions it shows 'has not emitted any errors'. 4. Physically removing $HOME/local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/* At this point I have no idea what to try next. Is anyone else seeing this or has some idea how to debug/fix? Thanks, Robert [1]: https://extensions.gnome.org/local/

'zypper patch' for kernel-default not working (openSUSE-2021-532, 5.3.18-lp152.69.1)
by Till Dörges 10 Apr '21

10 Apr '21

Hello everybody, I have several openSUSE Leap 15.2 boxes where installing the latest update via 'zypper patch' for kernel-default is not working. It has been working flawlessly in the past. Doing 'zypper install' for the kernel does work, but YaST online update (/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/online_update) happens to use 'zypper patch'. Other patches that were available at the same time (e.g. openSUSE-2021-529 for updating to gzip-1.10-lp152.2.6.1) were installed w/o any problems via 'zypper patch'. Zypper states that "Patch 'openSUSE-2021-532-1' is not needed." - which I obviously disagree with. Could anybody shed some light on what's going on/wrong here? See below for some more information. Thanks and regards -- Till --- snip --- box:~ # uname -a Linux box 5.3.18-lp152.66-default #1 SMP Tue Mar 2 13:18:19 UTC 2021 (73933a3) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux box:~ # lsb-release -d Description: openSUSE Leap 15.2 box:~ # zypper --version zypper 1.14.43 box:~ # rpm -q zypper zypper-1.14.43-lp152.2.18.1.x86_64 box:~ # zypper lu Loading repository data...
