[opensuse] Two qlogic controllers and one is bad
by aragonx＠dcsnow.com 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

I have an issue. I have two qlogic controllers in my SLES 9.3 system. I'm using multipath to have redundant access to my storage array. One of the paths has died but I can't seem to figure out which controller is dead. Here is some output that is probably useless: # lspci|grep Q 0000:07:01.0 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp.: Unknown device 2422 (rev 02) 0000:07:01.1 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp.: Unknown device 2422 (rev 02) 0000:07:02.0 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp.: Unknown device 2422 (rev 02) 0000:07:02.1 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp.: Unknown device 2422 (rev 02) # multipath -l dm names N dm table 3600c0ff0000000000923927119b33d00 N dm table 3600c0ff0000000000923927119b33d00 N dm status 3600c0ff0000000000923927119b33d00 N dm info 3600c0ff0000000000923927119b33d00 O <snip> 3600c0ff0000000000923927119b33d00 [size=1396 GB][features="1 queue_if_no_path"][hwhandler="0"] \_ round-robin 0 [active] \_ 1:0:0:1 sdd 8:48 [active][ready] 3600508e0000000001591b0e0e9e35f0f [size=67 GB][features="0"][hwhandler="0"] \_ round-robin 0 [active] \_ 0:0:2:0 sdb 8:16 [active][ready] <snip> As always, any help would be appreciated. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Can't mount CDROM or USB
by Neil Marjoram 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

Help, this is driving me mad and I know it's going to be simple to fix! I am running OpenSuse 10.3 on a dell 745 with no problems until recently I have not been able to automount CD's or USB devices. When the CD or device is inserted I get the window asking me what I would like to do, normally I would open a new window. This is OK and opens a window to system:/media/sr0 (for cd's). However no files are displayed and this message is presented to me : A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Mount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal") Also in /var/log/messages I have : automount[4348]: do_mount_indirect: failed to get group info from getgrgid_r I had a feeling it may be permissions, but where? I am using an OpenLdap server to authenticate, so it may be that I am not getting the correct group info? I can mount as root, but then my user can't access device. Any help would be much appreciated, Many thanks, Neil. -- Neil Marjoram Systems Manager Adastral Park Campus University College London Ross Building Adastral Park Martlesham Heath Ipswich - Suffolk IP5 3RE Reclaim Your Inbox! http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] bcm43xx driver interferes with touchpad mouse
by Jim Cunning 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

I have a Compaq Presario V5000 laptop with a Broadcom BCM4318 wireless chipset. With 10.1 I used ndiswrapper and the Windows bcml5.sys driver and had no touchpad problems. After installing 10.3 and the bcm43xx driver module with the appropriate bcm43xx firmware files, I have very erratic, jerky and often non-responsive touchpad mouse behavior. The logfile is full of messages like: Jan 17 09:07:31 lt1 kernel: psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio4/input0 lost sync at byte 4 Jan 17 09:07:31 lt1 kernel: psmouse.c: issuing reconnect request Jan 17 09:07:34 lt1 kernel: SoftMAC: Scanning finished: scanned 13 channels starting with channel 1 The SoftMAC messages are from the bcm43xx module. The problem occurs even when using a wired ethernet connection and no active wifi connection. Experimenting a bit, I found that removing and reloading the bcm43xx module fixes the problem, leading me to suspect interrupt sharing conflict or something similar. Looking at /proc/interrupts doesn't give me a clue, since the touchpad should be using either irq1 or 12, and the wifi uses irq 21: CPU0 0: 189860 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 622 IO-APIC-edge i8042 8: 2 IO-APIC-edge rtc 12: 109518 IO-APIC-edge i8042 14: 21527 IO-APIC-edge libata 15: 25752 IO-APIC-edge libata 16: 433 IO-APIC-fasteoi ATI IXP Modem, ATI IXP 18: 2 IO-APIC-fasteoi ohci_hcd:usb1, ehci_hcd:usb2, ohci_hcd:usb3 19: 19850 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth0 21: 28041 IO-APIC-fasteoi acpi, bcm43xx NMI: 0 LOC: 150095 ERR: 0 MIS: 0 Anyone seen this problem or have any suggestions on where to look?

[opensuse] Sarg segmentation fault when reading squid access.log
by Darragh O'Heiligh 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

Hello, When I run sarg to report on the access log generated by squid, I get a segmentation fault. Has anyone any ideas as to why this is happening? I'm running Squid 2.6 and Sarg 2.2.3 on OpenSuSE 10.3. when I ran sarg -z -x it looked for the access log in /usr/local/squid/var/logs/access.log so after being successfull in finding this path in sarg.conf, I just coppied the access log over here instead. Again though, it gave a segmentation fault at the end. Any ideas?

[opensuse] Using apt-get will conflict with yast ?
by Arie Reynaldi Z 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

All, I know this might be so lamme but I really need to know about this. I have opensuse 10.0 and I use to have my cd's so whenever I need install some application just use that cd's. Now, my cd's are broken.. and I know want to use apt-get (http://en.opensuse.org/APT) or any other tools.. to install some application from internet. Is there any conflict / problem if I use apt-get and Yast installer in a same time ? Cause I still want to use Yast Software management. regards, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Again, I had nothing of the sort in v10.2. It's obvious to me that I misinterpreted the information on page "man fstab", and have not mounted these two partitions properly, because they do not appear at all in the df readout: ***** # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda6 20161172 4263432 14873600 23% / udev 1027092 112 1026980 1% /dev /dev/sda7 30249960 432008 28281340 2% /home ***** Here is mount: ***** # mount /dev/sda6 on / type ext3 (rw,acl,user_xattr) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) debugfs on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,mode=0620,gid=5) /dev/sda7 on /home type ext3 (rw,acl,user_xattr) securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw) The pertinent lines of fstab are as follows: ***** /dev/sda12 /mnt/info jfs ro,noauto,user 0 0 /dev/sda13 /mnt/datafiles jfs ro,noauto,user 0 0 ***** They still make sense to me, but there must be a misunderstanding.

[opensuse] Corrupt Repository Database
by Lew Wolfgang 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

Hi Folks, It seems I've managed to corrupt my repository database. I get various errors at various times when trying to run update, repo remove/add etc. from yast2. Here's and example of the content of one of the error popups: Exception Occured: SQL logic error or missing database YaST got signal 11 at YCP file /usr/share/YaST2/clients/inst_productsources.ycp:1149 /sbin/yast2: line 386: 17977 Segmentation fault $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2QT_ARGS Net result is I can't get any updates or access "Software Management". Is there any way of flushing everything out without having to do a fresh install? I vaguely remember there's a way to do this, but I couldn't find it in the wiki. Thanks!
