[opensuse-support] 15.2, plymouth, and multiple LUKS partitions
by Ralph 18 Oct '20

18 Oct '20

Hello! Some strangeness in a fresh install of Leap 15.2 on a system with multiple LUKS partitions mounted at boot, all owning the same password. Normal boot and plymouth(?) displays a neon green text line on a blank background asking for the LUKS password for swap. After entering pw, plymouth(?) then displays three neon green blocks for several seconds. Remaining three LUKS partitions are invisibly mounted without further prompting and system boots into graphical mode. Boot with plymouth.enable=0 and I get the text display, as expected and usual in previous revs, but then I get prompted for passwords for all 4 partitions, even though they all have the same password. This used to be buffered and pw retried on additional partitions first before system would ask for any needed additional pw. Not now, apparently. What is happening here? No 'you must immediately delete plymouth from the system' suggestions, please ;) Ralph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] Installing CUDA on TW
by Jogchum Reitsma 18 Oct '20

18 Oct '20

Hi, I'm on TW, snapshot 20201011-0, kernel 5.8.14-1-default #1 SMP Wed Oct 7 06:23:04 UTC 2020 (cea47bb) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Since I'm still on kernel 5.8.x, the licensing problems with 5.9.x don't appear here. I have added the nvidia repo for cuda., and did a zypper refresh. But if I want to install one of the offered cuda-versions, zypper reacts with Problem: cuda-11.1.0-1.x86_64 demands cuda-11-1 >= 11.1.0, but this demand cannot e fulfilled uninstallable providers: cuda-11-1-11.1.0-1.x86_64[cuda] Solution 1:the following actions are taken:: remove nvidia-computeG05-450.66-28.1.x86_64 remove nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default-450.66_k5.8.0_1-28.1.x86_64 remove nvidia-glG05-450.66-28.1.x86_64 remove x11-video-nvidiaG05-450.66-28.1.x86_64 Solution 2: do not install cuda-11.1.0-1.x86_64 Solution 3: break cuda-11.1.0-1.x86_64 by ignoring some of it's dependencies (my own translations from Dutch). This if for cuda-11, but the other offered versions give the same result. Neither solution seems a good idea to me. Anyone here who knows how to install the cuda-drivers without breaking things? regards, Jogchum -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

See /etc/sddm.conf i tried to send this reply to the list but my mailer sylpheed sends it only to the OP regardless of what I select short of manual intervention (maybe the word list in that email address is confusing it) the file is empty, I'm only wondering because there ARE 2 gnomes, 2 and 3 and derivatives of gnome 2 (mate) and 3 (Cinamon?) just like threre is still KDE4 as well Yast isn't all that forthcoming either but 'gnome-version' the package says v-3 (for the benefit of anyone else googling for this info) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] ALL sound through JACK
by ksusup＠trixtar.org 17 Oct '20

17 Oct '20

During guitar sessions when I have JACK running I want ALL sound to route through JACK: assorted studioware, browser, VLC you name it. Other distros seem to have packages spec. built for this purpose but I don't see any for Suse (Leap-15.2 in this case). I "could" live with this setup being permanent but that is not necessary, I gotta have it for the sessions though.

[opensuse-support] Dolphin problem
by Doug McGarrett 16 Oct '20

16 Oct '20

Still on TW and I think I'll stay. don't know how to get the scanner to work again, but. . . . Suddenly, clicking on the Dolphin icon on the desktop produces: 90.4 GiB Hard Drive > run > media > doug > *TOSHIBA.EXT* and under that, in a box: The file or folder /run/media/doug/TOSHIBA EXT dow not exist. Have removed the icon (sent to trash) and brought up a replacement from the grinning ball at the bottom left corner of the screen--it's still fubar. Now what? Before and after: ran latest upgrade. No difference. And scanner still doesn't work, and brought down a new rpm from Epson but zypper says it is installed already. Yast still can't find scanner. Printer still works. Tried a new install of Leap on the other computer, (from same download) and it is stubborn about installing some things that worked before. I don't want to deal with that. One system--this TW one--is more than enough! --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-support] upgrade problem
by Doug McGarrett 15 Oct '20

15 Oct '20

This is sort of following on the scanner problem, since the scanner problem (not working any more, and not found by Yast) is more-or-less coincident with an upgrade. Tried this evening to run the latest upgrade, but after a whole batch of stuff was downloaded, it asked for a downloaded install disk version which I don't have. ( I have one from two days later, but that seems to be unacceptable. Specifically, I have the disk from which I installed TW, version, 2020-0826. The dialog from the attempted u[grade follows: Please insert medium [openSUSE-20200824-0] #1 and type 'y' to continue or 'n' to cancel the operation. [yes/no] (no): y Retrieving package libgimp-2_0-0-2.10.20-3.1.x86_64 (185/190), 286.1 KiB (777.3 KiB unpacked) File './x86_64/libgimp-2_0-0-2.10.20-3.1.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'cd:/?devices=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-HL-DT-ST_DVDRAM_GP08LU11_P01090612025848-0:0' Please insert medium [openSUSE-20200824-0] #1 and type 'y' to continue or 'n' to cancel the operation.

Question: can I find (where?) a version of libgimp-2_0-0-2.10.20-3.1.x86_64_rpm and put it somewhere--perhaps on a flash-drive--and make the thing happy? Or am I just out of luck? Tried rpm-find but this file not found.

[opensuse-support] Firefox: Can't save or open anything, after firefox has run for a while
by mh＠mike.franken.de 15 Oct '20

15 Oct '20

Hi *, starting with the latest firefox versions in the latest Tumbleweed snapshots a new problem occurred: If Firefox ran for a longer period of time, it can't save or open files any longer: - Sometimes the open dialog does not appear, - sometimes it appears, you can click on "save", but nothing happens, - no programs can be chosen to open the file - the list is empty, - sometimes a rudimental dialog appears, where you can't click anything. After closing all open firefox tabs or windows and starting them again, everything reverts to normal. Does this sound familiar to anyone? TIA. Bye.

[opensuse-support] Alternative DE's
by ksusup＠trixtar.org 15 Oct '20

15 Oct '20

What are listed as Gnome(s) on the Leap/Tumbleweed login-page, are those versions of Gnome-3? Is it possible to create a panel setup in Gnome-3 that approximates my KDE one? https://paste.opensuse.org/56797715 I'm evaluating alternative DE's, I've had reasonably good results with xfce, mate and lxqt for a total of 4 including kde. thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org

I just noticed that in Leap FVWM and Cinnamon are not listed together with others like Splashma, Gnome, Mate, LXqt, xfce etc. I'm curious about the reason for this.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner(a)opensuse.org
