I have know idea where/what caused this problem. Some subscriber to the list tried to pull his email using fetchmail and pass it to his local postfix server, but it was misconfigured (or blocked by firewall or something) and eventually it bounced back to the listed sender of the email Not a list server problem Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Evolution unexpected behaviour: Nobody else see it?
by Marco Calistri 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Folks, Wonder if I'm the only one in the Universe to see some unexpected behaviour with Evolution 2.32.1 on openSUSE 11.4: 1) Whenever you sent a mail messages it went copied twice into Sent folder (I've already opened a bug on this though it has be not yet replied) 2) If you try to set one of the copied message for elimination it moved into Trash folder but then it never went canceled, it permanently stay there! 3) The text on the screen looks as "cutted" in some point but if you scroll the window down it jump out correctly or back again cutted as it being smashed over the top of a wall. I attempted to describe this by my post titled:"[opensuse] Unexpected graphic issue on openSUSE 11.4" on this ML but may be I have been not so much clear to explain it; this is the screen-shot showing this behaviour: http://www.flickr.com/photos/amdturion/5581977981/sizes/l/in/photostream/ Cheers, -- Marco Calistri (amdturion) opensuse 11.4 Celadon - Linux 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop x86_64 AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology MK-36 - GeForce Go 6150 Gnome 2.32.1

[opensuse] kmix widget..
by John Bennett 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Seem to have an issue with my kmix widget at the moment.. It was running very slow/not really working at all. I deleted it, then couldn't figure out how to get it back :-(, finally found it again, but still slow/doesn't work. eg press volume up/down controls on the keyboard, couple of minutes later I get the indicator on the screen, it then stays there for about 5+ minutes, then the volume *may* go up or down... I'm sure it was fine until a week or 2 ago. Thanks, John. opensuse 11.4/x64/KDE 4.6 Intel i5/Snd driver:snd_hda_intel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 3 partitions vs. 11 partitions
by Wolfgang Mueller 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Yesterday I bought a new laptop and installed 11.4. As it is long ago when I installed OpenSuse last time, I followed the suggestion to create only three Linux partitions: Win7 167 GB (shrinked by the Installation CD) Swap 2 GB / 20 GB /home 260 GB (the remainder) Normally I would have created a much larger number of Linux partitions, for instance: Win7 167 GB (shrinked by the Installation CD, as above) Swap 2 GB / 10 GB /usr 20 GB /opt 10 GB /var 5 GB /tmp 5 GB /boot 0.09 GB /srv 60 GB /data 60 GB /local 60 GB /home 52 GB Does that make sense? Or is it only a waste of space, since the partitions cannot be filled completely? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

[opensuse] create md RAID1 from old HD's ordinary partition with data plus new virgin HD's empty 0xFD partition
by Felix Miata 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Before starting, I looked in /usr/share/doc/manual/opensuse-manuals_en/manual/sec.yast2.system.raid.html and http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man8/mdadm.8.php and http://www.ducea.com/2009/03/08/mdadm-cheat-sheet/ and http://tr.opensuse.org/SDB:Migration_to_Linux_Software_RAID and elsewhere without finding any example of doing what I am trying to do. I want to make /dev/md7 out of sdb14 which is formatted EXT3 and is 86% full of data, plus sda14, which is identically partitioned but virgin space on a brand new HD replacing the old sda. I've already rebuilt /dev/md[0-7]. sdb14 was originally created using the excess of sdb's size over the size of the old sda. On 11.4, I tried using YaST2 to do this, but it won't let me initialize md7 with only the old partition, and I see no clear indication that my data on sdb14 won't be eradicated by initially combining it with sda14 to create md7. So I tried on cmdline instead of YaST2: mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md7 --level=1 /dev/sdb14 missing but that gives an error "mdadm: no raid-devices specified". I tried: mdadm --create --verbose --force -n1 /dev/md7 --level=1 /dev/sdb14 but this gives a warning: mdadm: /dev/sdb14 appears to contain an ext2fs file system size=156280288K mtime=Fri Apr 15 17:42:57 2011 mdadm: Note: this array has metadata at the start and may not be suitable as a boot device. If you plan to store '/boot/ on this device please ensure that your boot-loader understands md/v1.x metadata, or use --metadata=0.90 mdadm: size set to 156579192K Continue creating array? The size disparity between the two size numbers, and lack of mention of the significance of the existing filesystem, has me worried what would happen if I answered yes. Without really thinking about the --create results, I did: mdadm --build --verbose --force -n1 /dev/md7 --level=1 /dev/sdb14 The result was "mdadm: array /dev/md7 built and started." Fsck says /dev/md7 is clean. Mounted, things seemed to be OK, but /proc/mdstat shows differently for md7 than for others: md7 : active raid1 sdb14[0] 156280288 blocks super non-persistent [1/1] [U] md6 : active raid1 sda13[2] sdb13[1] 78140056 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 0/150 pages [0KB], 256KB chunk md5 : active raid1 sda12[2] sdb12[1] 1036148 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 0/8 pages [0KB], 64KB chunk md4 : active raid1 sda11[2] sdb11[1] 28362652 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 0/217 pages [0KB], 64KB chunk Before adding sda14 to md7 with mdadm, does anyone have any comments or advice that might prevent needing to restore sdb14's content from backup? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
