[opensuse-support] what is "NMI" and why would I get it?
by David T-G 12 Mar '20

12 Mar '20

Hi, all -- I sat down this morning to this very interesting message I've never seen before: Message from syslogd@gezebel at Mar 12 06:55:22 ... kernel:[3910964.968746] Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 20 on CPU 0. Message from syslogd@gezebel at Mar 12 06:55:22 ... kernel:[3910964.968747] Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? Message from syslogd@gezebel at Mar 12 06:55:22 ... kernel:[3910964.968748] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue It looks davidtg@gezebel:~> dmesg | grep 3850877 | wc -l 400 like there are a few things going on this morning, but nothing I can recognize. Attached are the last two events, presuming I'm reading the log correctly. This is on Leap 15.1 with some updates pending (that I'm not going to allow at the moment) but otherwise generally kept up to date. TIA & HAND :-D -- David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt

[opensuse-support] OS LEAP on a USB stick
by David T-G 12 Mar '20

12 Mar '20

Hi, all -- Wow... This went absolutely nowhere on the opensuse@ list! Let's try it here in -support to see if there are any opinions. I have a media server stuffed full of hard drives, and I have to date been using Knoppix with a Casper partition on a USB drive to run it. The idea was that 1) replacing the boot media should be easy (and I clone the stick to another every once in a while) and 2) upgrading should be easy (by just whipping up a fresh stick with the latest version and comparing my persistence partition files with the new fresh versions) while 3) maintenance should be simple. It's worked well enough so far, but ... I'm about to bring another server in-house, and I maybe want just a bit more than Knoppix, although I still won't have disk slots to spare. I need the simple stability of LEAP, which will of course get updates regularly anyway, and wonder about running on a thumb drive in the same way. This one will run MySQL/Maria, probably run a web server, and will handle email and need at least a basic forwarding MTA if not the real thing. I imagine that I'd want to run without swap (*gasp* yes, that discussion again ;-) and figure I'm stuck with content changes right in the live OS rather than in an overlay volume. Does that sound right, or is there a LEAP live image (no, I haven't gone looking yet) that can UNIONFS on top in the same way?

[opensuse-support] Compile just a single kernel module?
by Achim Gratz 10 Mar '20

10 Mar '20

[second try] I'm trying to compile a single kernel module (iio/pressure/bmp280) that is not configured in. Using "method 2" from README.SUSE just compiles the enabled modules again. Reconfiguring the kernel gets me the module, but it also compiles the rest of the kernel, which I'd like to avoid as I will have to do that again with each new kernel version. Any incantations that let me do that?

[opensuse-support] mod_php_any and mailing list issue
by ITwrx 05 Mar '20

05 Mar '20

from discussion on opensuse-factory mailing list: On 3/5/20 4:34 AM, Arjen de Korte wrote: > The 'mod_php_any' dependency is a nasty one. Ideally the 'php7-fpm' package should also provide 'mod_php_any' and conflict with 'apache2-mod_php7' to prevent this situation from happening in the first place. I'm not sure why we don't have this already, but it probably has to do with the fact that 'php7-fpm' will not provide a working solution out of the box while 'apache2-mod_php7' does. As a php user, i would prefer (and expected) that a package like nextcloud only has dependencies for the php modules it actually uses in its code; not modules that php needs to "connect" to a given web server, or any other particular use case. How to connect php to a web server is a job for the wiki, imho. People could be just writing cli scripts and not even want a web server, much less apache deps. BTW, why does nginx use the 'nginx' user and group, instead of 'wwwrun' and 'www'? ------------ i tried to send the above to opensuse-factory, but it was rejected and did not give a reason except that it > was unable to be delivered to the list because of an access rule set > up by the list administrator. maybe the factory mailing list is just for devs on an internal list to post to? if so, it would be nice if the rejection message said that. I also didn't see that mentioned in the wiki, but maybe i missed it.

Hi, OK I don't know what happened but I cannot get a repository connection with zypper. I dropped my tv plan with xfinity and kept internet. Everything works like mail, web pages etc. However zypper claims it can't get a connection.

[opensuse-support] riot-web
