[opensuse] Blowing away 11.3
by James Knott 31 May '11

31 May '11

After all the problems with 11.4 and 11.3 on my ThinkPad, I've decided to blow it all away and revert to 11.0. At least that worked well. Problems: 11.4 - unable to use KDE, as system locked up and display faded 11.3, unreliable USB detection. Why no "Safely remove" option? Display often shifted about 1/2" to right, but mouse didn't. Poorer performance. General frustration with KDE 4. As I've often pointed out, since I first saw KDE 4, a few years ago, it needs a lot of work to be anywhere near as useful as 3.5 It would be *VERY* nice if support were resumed for 11.0, which would appear to be the last decent openSUSE distro. My experiences with KDE 4 are almost enough to send me back to Windows! What a piece of crap!!! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

全新安装OpenSuse11.3，安装时使用默认设置。现在Suse上网什么的都正常，可以ping通局域网内其他及其。但是其它机器无法Ping到SUSE，防火墙已经从YaST2中关闭。请问下，需要解决这个问题，还有什么工作要做啊？ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Keyring LED/USB flash with Insignia NS-KEYXX10
by Per Jessen 30 May '11

30 May '11

I've just acquired a bunch of key-rings with LED displays for holding photos etc. They are USB devices, and present themselves as follows: usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3 usb 4-1: new device found, idVendor=0168, idProduct=3011 usb 4-1: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 usb 4-1: Product: TP-6801 USB Chip usb 4-1: Manufacturer: technology, inc. usb 4-1: SerialNumber: General Purpose USB usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice scsi8 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 3 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning scsi 8:0:0:0: CD-ROM Insignia NS-KEYXX10 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 sr2: scsi3-mmc drive: 40x/40x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray sr 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr2 sr 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 5 It seems pretty weird that the device presents itself as a CD writer?

[opensuse] udev rules can not be read
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 30 May '11

30 May '11

At boot time with my Desktop 11.4 I get following error message after which the width of my screen becomes a little bit smaller (1.5 cm) and halts. The error message is as follows: doing fast boot [Creating device nodes with udev udev[76]: can not read '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' And the boot process stops. Googling did not help me much apart from learning a lot about udev and finding a SuSE bug report [679083] which was in the meantime closed with the information that work was done to not write this error message in a newer version and the info that the writer did not know what caused the bug. I still get the error at booting and the booting process stops there and then. I can boot with the failsafe but would like to get rid of this problem. Do not know which part of the failsafe overcomes the problem. The proposal to delete above empty file did not help too because even without this file, at booting the same error message is shown. Apart from a bug report to bugzilla, has somebody any idea what is causing my problem? My 11.4 is zypper dup-ped up to yesterday. A reinstall of udev did not solve the problem. -- Linux User 183145 using LXDE and KDE4 on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 11.4 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.39-31-desktop LXDE WM & KDE Development Platform: 4.6.3 (4.6.3) 12:26pm up 11:28, 3 users, load average: 3.21, 2.07, 1.23 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Conversion and Automation recommendations
by Duaine Hechler 29 May '11

29 May '11

Please bare with me because this will be a little long: I have an old (1976) slide and cassette presentation from Israel, that I want to try and completely update and automate. Things that are being done: - conversion of old 35mm slides to TIFF files - conversion of old cassette tape to mp3 file Things I need help with: - need to balance music with narration (currently music over powers narration) (Audacity ?) - cassette tape provides a "beep" on when to change slides - from another slide presentation, added more scenic & informational slides - how to add "beeps" for extra slides - now, the hard part, fully automate the presentation (however, do not have time to learn anything majorly complicated) Thank you in advance for any and all help, Duaine -- Duaine Hechler Piano, Player Piano, Pump Organ Tuning, Servicing& Rebuilding Reed Organ Society Member Florissant, MO 63034 (314) 838-5587 dahechler(a)att.net www.hechlerpianoandorgan.com -- Home& Business user of Linux - 11 years -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] DAAP Server [packaged for openSUSE]
by Adam Tauno Williams 28 May '11

28 May '11

I have a 32bit openSUSE 11.4 I'd like to use to provide DAAP service to the local network. But I'm rather surprised (a) there doesn't appear to be a maintained Open Source DAAP server [lots of mentions of Firefly, which appears to be dead - the website doesn't even load - and no packages anywhere] or (b) no DAAP server in the openSUSE repositories. Is anyone running a DAAP server? What software do you use? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] How do I disable dhcp 6 client
by Robert Schweikert 28 May '11

28 May '11

Hi, How do I disable the start up of the IPv6 dhcp client? The client is filling up the system log with messages as it cannot get a lease. I've set DHCLIENT6_BIN="none" in /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp in the hopes that an unrecognized/unsupported option would would prevent the startup of the IPv6 client, but this did not work. I also set: echo “alias net-pf-10 off” >> /etc/modprobe.conf.local echo “alias ipv6 off” >> /etc/modprobe.conf.local But that didn't do the trick either. Help is appreciated.

[opensuse] KDE Battery widget reads 11% w/ charged battery

My new T520 has been working fine with OpenSuSE 11.4 and KDE installed. Up unitl Wednesday, the battery widget in the panel read 98% charged.

Hiall, just trying to do a distro upgrade with zypper from 11.2 to 11.4. I replaced the repos with the corresponding 11.4 versions and the zypper update went well. Now after zypper dup and about 15 mins of downloading and installing, I see a whole series of errors in the following style (there are hundreds until the shell buffer ends, all within /usr/src/linux-2.6.37.6-0.5- obj/i386/debug/include/config/): error: db4 error(-30977) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: error(-30977) getting "/usr/src/linux-2.6.37.6-0.5- obj/i386/debug/include/config/strip/asm/" records from Dirnames index Any ideas? should I just retry zypper dup?

[opensuse] Major failure of 11.4 installation
by Joseph Comfort 24 May '11

24 May '11

I have nicely installed 11.4 on 3 desktops and 1 laptop with no obvious issues (except a couple of small ones). But it failed substantially on a 4th desktop. There was a whole range of problems, a frequent one being simply a dead freeze (no display, no response). They could occur while updating rpms, compiling code, or just sitting idle. An annoying part was that the computer is on a network switch with 2 other computers, both running 11.4. All 3 computers do nfs mounts from the others. When the computer failed, the other computers would hang, and I could not ping to any of them. I considered hardware issues. The hard disks check out just fine with SMART. I changed the power supply, with no benefit. I have a new CPU chip on order (it is faster anyway). With various checking and reinstallations, I have spent a few days on the problem. Today, I reinstalled 11.3. The computer is running fine, and all looks splendid. The long compilations went fine. I pushed the cpu hard (loads up to 2.1), with no problems. Something seems wrong with the 11.4 system. I use the base (KDE) install, but add a lot of rpms for my needs. The crashes seldom left any messages of failure. Any messages I saw did not seem helpful, nor were the failures ever reproducible. I have no idea where the problem is. I do not know what to specify for a bug report. My configuration is: Motherboard: Asus M2N-E CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ (to be replaced with a 5200+) Graphics: nVidia GeForce 7600 GS Monitor: Viewsonic G810 (1600x1200) Kernel: 2.6.37.6-0.5 Maybe I need another message for this, but the two small problems are: 1) When booting the 11.4 computers, the mount-nfs process starts _very_ early, and the booting has to wait for a timeout. This should be fixed (does not happen on 11.3). Once booted, all the disks are mounted. 2) One computer has a Viewsonic VA2431wm monitor, with a 1920x1080 display. When the installation gets to bringing up the login screen, the display becomes a pattern of rectangles. I have to reboot into the Failsafe mode, and then install the proprietary Nvidia drivers to make the display behave properly. Display of this size are now common, and the installation code should accommodate to them.

[opensuse] Amavis>clamd>spamd
by Jim Flanagan 24 May '11

24 May '11

Whats the best way to scan for spam on my email server? I'm trying to get amavis working with postfix and clamd and spamd. I have amavis running, as are clamd and spamd. Clamd is running and checking its databases. Freshclam is checking for updates. But nothing is being scanned as far as I can tell. I have my fqdn set in amavisd.conf, as well as the lines for clamd un-remarked. Not sure what else needs to be done to get the scan working. Thanks for any help.

What is the best way to set Postfix to listen to smtp traffic on port 587, and 25 at the same time? I'd like to set up a remote client to connect to my server on that port using starttls.

[opensuse] OpenSuSE 11.4, kernel 2.6.37.6-0.5-default and random lockups on HP DL360
by Claudio Prono 24 May '11

24 May '11

Hello all, Into the last week i have some problems with a new upgraded system. That system is worked well for 1 week, then the last weekend it locked up. It is alive, terminal switching is working but if i write into the login and press enter, it locks up. From the external, the machine answers to the ping, but any service is present (syn-synack done), but no response (connection hangs). I am now thinking can be a problem of the new kernel, but i am not sure. Can be also an hardware problem, i dunno... For that cause i need an external opinion... What i can do to debug this? Any help is well accepted.

[opensuse] 11.4 PAM_env prob: unable to dlopen(...pam_env.so) lib64/libpam.so.0 version LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3...
by Linda Walsh 23 May '11

23 May '11

After upgrading to 11.4, I've noticed that my 'REMOTEHOST' and 'DISPLAY' env vars aren't being set correctly. REMOTEHOST not at all, and DISPLAY is incorrect. I checked all the config files and they were fine -- then I noticed this in the log: sshd[22911]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib64/security/pam_env.so): /lib64/libpam.so.0: version `LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3' not found (required by /lib64/security/pam_env.so) (where it is happening for multiple progs besides sshd, .. cron, dovecot, etc...). The files appear to be in the correct location and the versions are all matching from coming from 11.4, and in fact, using readelf to dump /lib64/libpam.so.0, I see LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3 (multiple places, but importantly, I think as a GLOBAL DEFAULT ABS OBJECT: readelf --dyn-syms libpam.so.0|grep 1.1.3 75: 0000000000000000 0 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT ABS LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3 99: 0000000000009c80 271 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 pam_modutil_regain_priv@@LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3 105: 0000000000009a40 561 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 pam_modutil_drop_priv@@LIBPAM_MODUTIL_1.1.3 files look 'reasonable'... /lib64> llg libpam* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 May 22 13:32 libpamc.so.0 -> libpamc.so.0.82.1* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14664 Feb 27 04:19 libpamc.so.0.82.1* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 May 22 13:32 libpam_misc.so.0 -> libpam_misc.so.0.82.0* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14664 Feb 27 04:19 libpam_misc.so.0.82.0* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 May 22 13:32 libpam.so.0 -> libpam.so.0.83.0* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 56048 Feb 27 04:19 libpam.so.0.83.0* Help? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Evolution as Data Source in libreoffice
by Teruel de Campo MD 23 May '11

23 May '11

ref: opensuse 11.4 LibreOffice 3.3.1 OOO330m19 (Build:8) tag libreoffice-3.3.1.2 Evolution 2.32.1 Problem: I can not see the evolution address books under libreoffice Evolution addressbooks are ok (I migrated them from evolution 2.30) Libreoffice is running well. View/datasources shows evolocal.odb under ~/.libreoffice/3-suse/user/database/evolocal.odb but is empty no tables no data. In the past the same was already populated with all the addressbooks data. I wonder if this is a problem related to the new location of evolution data: under evo 2.30 all the data was under ~/.evolution, now under 2.32.1 is under ~/.loca/share/evolution I have not been able to find any solution.

[opensuse] 11.4 - is 'tracker' 'beagle' in disguise?
by David C. Rankin 23 May '11

23 May '11

Guys, I restarted 11.4 and had a flurry of sustained hard drive activity and I took a look at what was running in top. I was quite surprised when I found: 4955 david 39 19 319m 18m 10m R 47 0.5 0:11.26 tracker-extract 4666 david 20 0 192m 19m 5788 S 38 0.5 0:19.49 tracker-store 4550 david 39 19 279m 22m 6604 S 8 0.6 0:06.54 tracker-miner-f <panic> tracker-miner-f? tracker-extract? tracker-store? Oh hell! Did my kids click on something they shouldn't have in Vista? (no - wait, this is my laptop and it's opensuse 11.4) WTF? Did I just get hit with a new firefox virus? </panic> So I go do a quick search for what was installed: 22:12 alchemy:~> rpm -qa | grep tracker libtracker-miner-0_10-0-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 libtracker-client-0_10-0-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 gnome-panel-applet-tracker-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 tracker-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 tracker-miner-files-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 libtracker-extract-0_10-0-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 tracker-gui-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 libtracker-sparql-0_10-0-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 nautilus-extension-tracker-tags-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 tracker-miner-evolution-0.9.38-3.6.1.x86_64 Look at what tracker says about itself: 22:13 alchemy:~> rpm -qi tracker Name : tracker Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.9.38 Vendor: openSUSE Release : 3.6.1 Build Date: Sat 19 Feb 2011 <snip> URL : http://projects.gnome.org/tracker/ Summary : Powerful object database, tag/metadata database, search tool and indexer Description : Tracker is a powerful desktop-neutral first class object database, tag/metadata database, search tool and indexer. It consists of a common object database that allows entities to have an almost infinte number of properties, metadata (both embedded/harvested as well as user definable), a comprehensive database of keywords/tags and links to other entities. It provides additional features for file-based objects including context linking and audit trails for a file object. It has the ability to index, store, harvest metadata, retrieve and search all types of files and other first class objects. Distribution: openSUSE 11.4 My next thought was - gnome? What is this thing doing running when I launched kde3? Where did it start from? More importantly - how do I get rid of it? Then it hit me: "Is this beagle in disguise?" I watched it for another couple of minutes and it quit. So what is this thing? Is it worth keeping? Should I just nuke it? What is the collective wisdom on whether it works or is it just another waste of cpu cycles and index db space? Thanks for any info you have. -- David C.
