[opensuse] zypper: really no check for expiration of gpg keys?
by Joachim Schrod 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, Meta data in OBS repo-md repositories (i.e., repomd. is usually signed with gpg. It seems that zypper does not check expiration of used gpg keys. (zypper 1.0.13 on openSUSE 11.1, in case that matters.) As an example: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Apache:/MirrorBrain/Apache_openSU… has a key that expired at April 1, 2010; i.e., 12 days ago. (The key has ID 0xBD6D129A and fingerprint EDDD C98D 96A0 F889 9AB0 7C78 9584 A164 BD6D 129A.) I would have expected a warning or an error when this repository is refreshed, but nothing as such happens. Is this known behaviour? An error in my configuration? A bug? A change request. Any comments would be welcome, Joachim -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joachim Schrod Email: jschrod(a)acm.org Roedermark, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Search list in DNS resolution
by Ciro Iriarte 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, for what I understand one can add a search list to /etc/resolv.conf that helps by avoiding typing the fqdn. The thing is, currently it's not working. The only particularity is that the suffixes are subdomains of the same domain, can that be the cause?. I'm seeing the same issue on another distro and a windows machine. Is this the expected behavior? ----test1---- search site3.testcorp.com site2.testcorp.com site1.testcorp.com nameserver 10.10.3.1 ---------------- ----test2---- search site3.testcorp.com search site2.testcorp.com search site1.testcorp.com nameserver 10.10.3.1 ------------ It fails if I ping host1 or host2, but succeds if I ping host1.site1.testcorp.com or host2.site2.testcorp.com. Any ideas? Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] openSUSE 11.2 download does not install
by Bruce Samhaber 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, I downloaded the openSUSE 11.2, and burned it to a DVD. When I tried to install it, the installer booted off of the DVD, went through most of the configuration, partitioned the harddrive but failed at installing the bootloader. There were 22 files in total that the installer complained that it could not read. I went back and check the md5 checksums. The download MD5 match that posted on the download website. When the DVD was burned to the DVD it was done with K3B. Being suspicious of the DVD I read the data back using both dd and K3B, the md5sums on the readback fils were different. Does this mean that the DVD files did not get burned correctly?

[opensuse] Filesystem corruption

Hoi Listmates, On a ext3 filesystem I have 2 files that are corrupted. I can't do anything with them , not delete or rename. The rm error tels me "> cannot remove `15 - You & I (Trentem?ller Free Dub).flac': No such file or directory Deleting in dolphin is also not possible. (couls not delete file) There is 1 unreadable character in the filename but I am not sure that this is the problem. I run fsck -f -p on this partition bat this gives me no errors. What else can I do to repair this filesystem ?

[opensuse] Unmount option for USB-flashdisk in KDE 3.5 desktop icons
by Istvan Gabor 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

In KDE 3.5 (currently 3.5.10) icons are placed on the desktop representing inserted media (CD/DVD, USB flashdisk). For CD/DVDs right click on the icon gives possible actions including "eject" and "unmount". For USB-flashdisks there is a "safely remove" option but there is no "unmount" option. My question is where the properties of these icon are stored, how they are activated, and how I could add an "unmount" option to USB-flashdisk icon? Sometimes I want to unmount/remount my flashdisk without removing it. Thanks is advance, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] weird digikam problem
by Sampsa Riikonen 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Dear Listmates, I have a weird problem with digikam 0.10.0 (running on kde 4.4.1, OS 11.2). When clicking those small icons and trying to view the bigger image, no bigger image appears, but simply a text saying "Cannot display preview for XXX.JPG" (XXX being the filename in question) After trying to find something from the configuration menus for ~ 30 min. without success, I decided to send this e-mail..
