[opensuse] nss_pam_ldap and nslcd
by lynn 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hi I have connected to Samba 4 Active Directory LDAP. I have /etc/nslcd.conf: uri ldap://127.0.0.1/ base dc=hh3,dc=site map passwd uid sAMAccountName map passwd homeDirectory unixHomeDirectory map shadow uid sAMAccountName sasl_mech GSSAPI sasl_realm HH3.SITE krb5_ccname /tmp/krb5cc_0 It works fine but sometimes, getent passwd fails to show the LDAP users in AD and we can't login. I can fix this by changing the nslcd.conf file: uri ldap://localhost to uri ldap://192.168.1.3/ and restarting nslcd If it doesn't work on the next boot I change it back again and it works again. Crazy. errors: Dec 30 22:36:33 hh3 nslcd[2736]: version 0.7.13 starting Dec 30 22:36:33 hh3 nslcd[2736]: accepting connections Dec 30 22:36:33 hh3 nslcd[2728]: Starting local LDAP Name Service Daemon..done Dec 30 22:36:40 hh3 nslcd[2736]: [8b4567] failed to bind to LDAP server ldap://l ocalhost: Can't contact LDAP server: Transport endpoint is not connected successes: Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2769]: caught signal SIGTERM (15), shutting down Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2769]: version 0.7.13 bailing out Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2868]: Shutting down local LDAP Name Service Daemon..done Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2884]: version 0.7.13 starting Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2884]: accepting connections Dec 30 22:52:13 hh3 nslcd[2876]: Starting local LDAP Name Service Daemon..done and then getent passwd works and we can login. Any ideas anyone? Thanks L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] question about kernel sources
by Istvan Gabor 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hello: I would like to build a 2.6.37 kernel for my opensuse 11.2 which has 2.6.31 kernel by default. I thought that I could use kernel sources from the 11.4 repository. But I don't see clearly what is the difference between kernel-source-*.src.rpm and kernel-source-*.noarch.rpm packages, eg: http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.4/rpm/src/kernel-source-2.6.37.6-0.9… and http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.4/rpm/noarch/kernel-source-2.6.37.6-…. I would also thank for links where I can find description/explanation of the above and how to build a kernel for a different system. Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Upgrade to 12.1: udevd times out
by Jon Cosby 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

I'm upgrading a p4 desktop, 2g ram, from 11.3 to 12.1 with the DVD installation. I've checksummed the disc image and burned two copies. I choose the installation from the boot menu (boot to hard disc is okay) and after hanging on the gecko splash screen for 30 seconds or so, it starts rolling out messages in the form udevd[##] Timeout: killing /sbin/modprobe xxxx This goes by too quickly to get the exact details. It continues for a minute or two until I power the computer off. What's the first thing to check? Maybe I should give it more time to see if it actually continues to Yast, but I should resolve this first.

[opensuse] systemd pam entry missing in /etc/pam.d/xdm
by Javier Conti 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hi list, I've been struggling lately trying to download pictures fro my camera with digikam after updating to openSUSE 12.1. The problem was that I had no permisisons to write to the special file created by udev (in my case /dev/bus/usb/003/*). A bit of troubleshooting led to systemd-uaccess not being able to determine who was on seat0 (the user owning the session). The file "/run/systemd/seats/seat0" contained: $ cat /run/systemd/seats/seat0 # This is private data. Do not parse. IS_VTCONSOLE=1 After putting the "session required pam_systemd.so kill-session-processes=1" in "/etc/pam.d/xdm", and restart the session, the seats file looked like this: $ cat /run/systemd/seats/seat0 # This is private data. Do not parse. IS_VTCONSOLE=1 ACTIVE=84 ACTIVE_UID=1000 SESSIONS=84 UIDS=1000 Now systemd is able to determine who is owning the session and plugging the camera in just works flawlessly. I don't know if the module wasn't configure on my system for some reason, but since I didn't touch pam stuff since upgrading to 12.1, it seems a bug to me. Anyone else lacking this pam entry by default? Bye, Javier PS: my "/etc/pam.d/xdm" file looks like this now: $ cat /etc/pam.d/xdm #%PAM-1.0 auth include common-auth account include common-account password include common-password session required pam_loginuid.so session required pam_systemd.so kill-session-processes=1 session include common-session -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] how to isolate bad blocks?
by Sampsa Riikonen 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Dear List, I have an external 500 gb usb hard disk which I use for making backups. It seems to have some bad blocks.. when I am rsyncing files to it, I get error messages and it unmounts automatically (in dmesg: "kernel panic", etc.). I have tried the following: fsck.ext3 -v -f -y -c -c -C 0 /dev/sdb3 .. this should make a read/write test to the hard disk (it takes ages..!) and re-write the "bad block" inodes. Unfortunately, the program says finally: "could not allocate block in ext2 filesystem" .. How can I fix the hard drive and isolate the bad sectors?

[opensuse] WiFi won't work: Dell Inspiron 1300 / Broadcom BCM4318
by Haro de Grauw 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hi folks, On the road with my rusty old laptop. Dell Inspiron 1300 -- think Celeron M 1600MHz, 512MB of ram shared with the video controller, etc. -- got it second-hand from a Glaswegian some years ago. The internal WiFi works absolutely fine on WinXP, but won't work on openSUSE 12.1. The light doesn't come on, and it shows in KDE's NetworkManager applet as: WLAN-Interface Not available ...and there's no way of getting it to work. I press fn+f2, nothing happens. All other fn+... combinations do work, e.g., for screen brightness and volume control, so the keyboard seems fine. In the BIOS I found an option to control the wireless on/off by "fn+f2 only" or "software and fn+f2", so I selected the latter, but still no luck. More diagnostic output below; NetworkManager seems to detect the device all right, and it found a driver for it, but the thing just won't come to life. (No luck with ifup through YaST either.) Searching around the internet points me to ndiswrapper, but is that necessary given that NetworkManager seems to have identified the device correctly and found a driver for it? Any ideas? Haro ---------- The detailed view in NetworkManager says: Type: Wireless 802.11 Connection status: unavailable IP address: no IP address Connection speed: unknown System name: wlan0 MAC address: 00:16:...........(blabla) Driver: b43 ---------- Console output from lspci: ... 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) ... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] opensuse 12.1 and problem with communication over proxy
by Karliak Josef 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hi there, I've problem with repos (opensuse repos, packman repos). We use proxy without authentification. In the firefox I browse on the internet, but adding repos and adding programs via yast2 sw_single or zypper fails with error "connection failed", "could not resolve host ....". This looks like it does not accept of the using proxy in "yast2 proxy". Any tips ? Uncheck proxy, reboot, check proxy and reboot has been done.

[opensuse] OpenSuse 12.1; IBM T41, P4, Radeon Video; Gnome 3 display rendering bug
by Steve Thompson 29 Dec '11

29 Dec '11

Hi everyone, I recently installed 12.1 on a USB key to try it out. Previously, I had 11.4 running, but my HDD was killed, and so corruption totalled that installation and I've been making do with a recent Ubuntu for a while. Installation from CD to the USB key went flawlessly. First boot brought up the GDM login screen, at which time I logged in. Everything seemed fine except at the point where I opened an application. First, I tried gnome-terminal, which started up with an all-black window. That is, no title-bar text showing, no window decorations, and no prompt or cursor -- just all black. I tried FireFox next with identical results. System Settings also opens to a black window. The odd thing is that the desktop, top menubar, side-window icons, miniaturized windows (all black contents), and root-window background are all rendered properly. So, it is only application windows that are affected, as far as I can tell at this stage. >From my Ubunti XOrg.log.0, the chipset is as follows: (--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (AGP)" (ChipID =3D 0x4c57) (II) RADEON(0): AGP card detected The system booted with a Radeon FB console, which works properly. As I can't get at any system settings from the desktop, it is impossible for me to say if there are any tweaks that would alleviate the problem, and before I go and try to make a custom XOrg config file, I thought I'd run this bug by the list to see if anyone has any ideas. Attached are OpenSuse 12.1 XOrg logfile and kernel log files, in case there is any immediately useful information there that would shed light on the problem. Regards, Steve

[opensuse] Akonadi Server Won't Start
by Stephen P. Molnar 29 Dec '11

29 Dec '11

OpenSUSE 12.1 64 bit. I made a fatal error, I messed up my wifes' use of kmail. I was attempting to remove an error that popped up every time the system started saying the Nepomuk Service Stub closed unexpectedly. I did this by making the mistake of following Google results for removing Nepomuk. Of course, this resulted not being able to use anything that required Nepomuk. This is what I get when opening KMail. A number of errors are reported. Not being a OS or hardware person, only a user, I don't have the faintest idea as to the corrective action that is necessary. Any assistance will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Akonadi Server Self-Test Report =============================== Test 1: SUCCESS -------- Database driver found.
