Sorry SuSE: 9.1 is Waste of time and money!
by Terje J. Hanssen 17 May '24

17 May '24

I am sorry to conclude that my upgrade from SuSE 9.0 Pro to 9.1 Pro has been waste of time and money for me, so far. The same I have to say about the free SuSE "Installation support". The reason is that my SuSE 9.1 installation only detects 1 of my 3 SCSCI devices (as I wrote in another subject on this forum: http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2004-May/3254.html) Yamaha 4416S CDRW recorder detected HP DVD Writer 100i NOT detected Epson 1640SU scanner NOT detected It's rather stupid. I have installed 9.1 using the DVD disk just in the HP DVD drive, but after the installation of 9.1, the KDE/Konqueror /media/recorder cannot access it and YaST2 cannot install additional software from it. Only one "Cdrecorder" is found in My computer and that is the Yamaha 4416 drive, which the KDE/Konqueror file manager assign as /media/recorder11. I am sure 9.1 is the reason, as I hadn't this problems with 9.0. I have tried both an update and two several new installation of 9.1. Neither SJDS nor Windows on the same multiboot PC have problems to detect these devices. In my opinion SuSE should therefore debug 9.1 better and longer, and not leave the problems to the customers. I see SuSE notes on their web saying that they know SCSI scanners are not detected in 9.1. But regarding my HP DVD writer problem, the SuSE support (as usual) don't take the responsibility and argue that this problem (a combination of IDE disk and SCSI devices) isn't included in their free installation support! This sounds remarkable, and I have never had a modern PC of so simple model or configuration that it has fitted the limited rules for the free installation support. Terje J. Hanssen

Adding fonts?
by Tracer Bullet 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

Hi all, Reading some mails on the GIMP mail list, I ran across the procedure to install some more fonts for not only Gimp, but the system and StarOffice to use also. Well, I installed the fonts, went to the shell and issued the command xset fp+ <font directory> and then the rehash command and all fonts are there! Ok, that went well, but each time I restart the system, I have to do it all over again? Is there a way to make it permanent and read the new fonts like it does the ones the system installs or is that a no-no? end of line Tracer Shell commands: xset fp+ <new font directory> xset fp rehash -- ---KMail 1.2--- SuSE Linux v7.2--- Registered Linux User #225206 /tracerb(a)sprintmail.com/ *Magic Page Products* *Team Amiga* http://home.sprintmail.com/~tracerb

[opensuse] DenyHosts daemon mode on openSUSE 11.3
by LLLActive＠GMX.Net 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

Hi, I am trying to run DenyHosts on OS 11.3. I can get it to sync and update the hosts.deny file, but with "rcdenyhosts status" it reports as being "unused" just after I started it with "rcdenyhosts start". I tried also with yast, setting up as a service (daemon) and starting it. It also stops immediately. In the denyhosts.log file there is no error info, just what it used to set it up at start. I've gone through the configs several times, no joy. Anyone got DenyHosts running properly? :-/ Dreiel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Android print solution?
by David C. Rankin 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Guys, With the iphone we were able to configure good print function via CUPS/Avahi, is there anything similar that can be done with an Android tablet? Looking, it doesn't appear that there is any basic print capability provided by Android (3.2 Honeycomb). I would like to print to by openSuSE server in the same manner I do from iOS. Anybody found a good solution? I have found PrintBot, but that isn't a solution because it cannot be used legally where confidentiality is required. (data is transferred to a 3rd party server before printing). I need to find a direct print solution. What says the braintrust? -- David C.

[opensuse] Cautionary tale re encrypted HOME directory
by Basil Chupin 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

When I installed 12.1 I encrypted (for the first time) my HOME directory. Last night, in anticipation of installing KDE 4.8, I did a backup of my /home to an external HDD. Then the thought occurred to me - which is as a result of a court case in USA where the judge ruled that the Fifth Amendment did not apply where the woman refused to divulge the passphrase to her encrypted system and she had to type in the passphrase to make the contents of the HDD available to the DoJ - is my encrypted data now readable on the external HDD? The answer is YES. I attached the external to another computer and am able to read all the files in that backup. FYI. BC -- The wise man does at once what a fool does finally.

[opensuse] Yast nfs4 error
by lynn 05 Feb '12

05 Feb '12

Hi Yast NFS Client gives me the option to choose a share and select nfsv4. If I select the share I want from the drop down list it will not mount the share. I think the dialogue is wrong. e.g. if /home is exported and I select /home from the drop down list it will not mount. For nfs4 it should change /home to / As I see it, yast is trying to do this: mount -t nfs4 myserver:/home /somewhere but it should be doing this mount -t nfs4 myserver:/ /somewhere Is this a bug in Yast? I can mount it manually, but what should I put in fstab to make it mount?

[opensuse] 11.4 Update (gtk?) messed up thunderbird thread marker triangles?
by David C. Rankin 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Guys, It seems one of the latest updates did something to the little triangle thread markers in thunderbird that show when a thread has responses. Now the triangles for collapsed threads look like little squiglies. The downward facing triangles showing expanded threads look OK. Anybody else see this? Does this look like a Gtk issue or an issue with thunderbird? This screenshot shows what I'm seeing: [64k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/img/misc/tbird-triangles.jpg I don't think this problem is gtk2 itself because I see the same behavior on arch with gtk2 2.24.9-2. So it seems to be in some related/supporting package that draws the little triangles in thunderbird. I don't think this is just thunderbird related either, others have reported the same problems on all apps compiled against gtk2. Any ideas what package/library might be the root cause of the problem? I have no idea where the bug goes... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] lost konsole feature in kde 4.8
by Roger Oberholtzer 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

I have been using KDE as shipped in 12.1, except that I let it update apps. I updated to 4.8 yesterday and lost one of the great konsole features I discovered in the original: If I start konsole with the option: "ssh -t www.somewhere.else ssh acme" I get the expected remote login. The neat new thing I saw in the original 12.1 konsole was that if I opened a new tab in that console, it also did the remote login automatically. I was duly impressed. Just what I needed. This no longer happens in the konsole in 4.8. Instead, it is the older behavior that the new tab is a local shell. Anyone else seen this? Perhaps there is now a setting that controls this. Something like, "each new tab runs the command from the command line"? I don't see this. But perhaps I do not know where to look. I do lots of ssh stuff this way. It was a great feature. Please don't tell me it was a bug... -- Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer(a)ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

[opensuse] Fontconfig fonts priority
by Mariusz Fik 01 Feb '12

Hi, current fontconfig configuration[1] sets the highest priority for Microsoft font. If user install them (i.e. Times New Roman, Arial, Consolas) they will be set as _default_ for respectively families (sans-serif, sans, monospace). Why do we promote Microsoft fonts instead support open fonts, shipped with system? I propose[2] to downgrade those fonts. Thanks to this, we keep our default font settings but those MS fonts will be still available for use. Whats Your point of view in this case?

Is there a know way to install a live CD image onto an usb stick with: a) not using the whole stick (16GB), but just one partition (e.g. sdb1) for the image b) having additional data partition(s) on there as well I'm not interested in having a 'persistent' live system on the stick, I just don't want to sacrifice 16GB for a 1GB image.

[opensuse] How to type special chars?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I haven't spent much thought about this in the 15 or so years I deal with Linux now but since I moved to Finland, it struck me... How do I type combined chars like éêë or ü under Opensuse 12.1 Under Windows and OSX, you type e.g. ´ and then e. On the Finnish keyboard there is a " button at the place where the ü is on the German keyboard, but it's not actually a " button. It is meant to create Üü by first pressing the button and then pressing Uu but again, similar to the ´ ` key, it immediately creates a " when you press it.

[opensuse] syslog-ng and UDP ports.
by Roger Oberholtzer 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

I am trying to use syslog-ng on an openSUSE 11.2 system. I want to add an information source that is from a device I am integrating. The device sends information on UDP port 22054. When I try to get syslogd-ng to access that port, I get an error. I strace the program and see the following: bind(6, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(22054), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.10")}, 16) = -1 EADDRNOTAVAIL (Cannot assign requested address) which is the error I get when starting the daemon. My question is: should I be able to use such a high UDP port number here?

[opensuse] 11.4 build of Yast2 failures?
by Marc Chamberlin 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Hi, In order for me to try and grok the YaST bootloader setup module, I thought I would try and download the source code for YaST and compile it on my openSuSE11.4 x86_64 system. Then perhaps I can instrument the code in order to understand the model of the bootloader that YaST presents... (and yes, I have asked before for help on understanding the model, and not gotten any useful replies, just sympathy from others who like me do not have a clue what the various settings will do either.. And yes, I understand GRUB, and the GNU documentation, but the openSuSE model and the bootloader GUI remains incomprehensible to me...) I followed the instructions found at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_development and one of the things these instructions did was to refer me to another tutorial - http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_tutorials_development_in_general which indicated that I needed to be sure to install a number of additional packages. I carefully tried to install the listed packages, but a number (shown below) were missing - gettext-devel gtk-devel there is a gtk2-devel package installed on my system. Equivalent? liby2util-devel openssl-devel there is a libopenssl-devel package installed on my system. Equivalent? pkgconfig there is a pkg-config package installed on my system. Equivalent? I dunno what to do about that, so decided to punt and go on. (Anyone got any ideas on how I should locate these packages?) Anywise, I downloaded the YaST source from the SVN (but not from trunk) using the following command - svn co http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/branches/SuSE-Linux-11_4-Branch/ which I guessed would get me the source code for the version of YaST2 that was installed in my system. The checkout proceed fine, as did the three make commands to build and install YaST2. But when I got to the step - y2tool y2makeall I got a number of errors as shown below (steps not shown appeared to build properly without errors) These may be related to the fact that I was unable to find and install all the required packages, so if that is the case, then I need to understand how to find and install those packages.

[opensuse] Kmail question
by James Hatridge 29 Jan '12

29 Jan '12

Hi all, When I upgraded to 12.1 I could not get Kmail to read my mail dir and had to start all over. But there is some data I really could use from one of these dir. Is there a way that I can force Kmail to read it or do you'al have another suggestion. Thanks! JIM -- Check out my stamp & postcard collection! Yankee GO HOME!

[opensuse] Fwd: Multicast Routing setup in OpenSUSE 11.3
by Yury Baranov 29 Jan '12

29 Jan '12

Okay, i have very annoying problem and i need your help very badly. I've been lurking about two weeks with lots of experiments but i don't feel successful. Here is my problem. I have local provider network with IPTV service and a gateway with opensuse 11.3. No X, only console ssh access. eth0 is my home network iface, ip 172.24.128.222/255.255.255.0, ip static. eth1 is my local provider iface, ip 10.168.229.33/255.255.255.0, ip static by DHCP. dsl0 is my internet inface, ip dynamic. Everything is working except iptv streaming in my home network. vlc playlist given py provider contains strings like #EXTINF:1,first channel udp://@233.0.41.102:20000 #EXTINF:2,second channel udp://@233.0.42.100:20000 etc... Now i think that streaming is not working because: 1) My Firewall is blocking multicast packets (don't know how to accept them) ---- suse-router:/etc # iptables --list | grep -E Chai\|mult Chain INPUT (policy DROP) Chain FORWARD (policy DROP) Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) Chain forward_ext (2 references) DROP all -- anywhere anywhere PKTTYPE = multicast Chain forward_int (1 references) DROP all -- anywhere anywhere PKTTYPE = multicast Chain input_ext (3 references) DROP all -- anywhere anywhere PKTTYPE = multicast Chain input_int (1 references) Chain reject_func (1 references) --- 2. I don't know subnet of multicasting network for my provider to config igmpproxy correctly (any help how to find it?) Please, let's try to make full step-by-step instruction 'How to set up IPTV casting'. Now all my experimental things have been turned off, i have igmpproxy installed and waiting for any help, thank you. --- Yury Baranov -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] opensuse 12.1 locks up
by michael＠actrix.gen.nz 29 Jan '12

29 Jan '12

Someone asked if I was using packagekit - I wasn't. As I understand it packagekit is hooked into something that runs in the panel, I normally shut down the panel item if I ever see it. But I always update using Yast2, so it was not the cause of any issues for me. If I were you, I'd use speedtest.net and run a few speed tests - see if flash does in fact cause you any issues. If it does, try using you system without any flash pages active and see if it is more stable. If you can run speedtest several times without issues, then your problem may be different than mine. It would be good to be able to narrow down something that definitly causes it to crash. Your problem could still be due to hardware issues such as bad RAM or bad BIOS optimisations. Some BIOS's have options to load safe-defaults or load optimised-defaults - might be worth trying. It might also be worth booting into memtest86 (the SUSE installer DVD has a memory test option which is probably just memtest86).

[opensuse] apache log entries wpad 404
by Patrick Shanahan 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

My netgear WGT624v3 bit the dust and I became in possession of a cisco E2500. All apparently works properly, some better, but.... My apache log is filling with: 192.168.1.1 - - [28/Jan/2012:17:09:28 -0500] "GET /wpad.dat HTTP/1.1" 404 1043 "-" "-" and 192.168.1.1 - - [28/Jan/2012:14:01:21 -0500] "GET /wpad.dat HTTP/1.1" 404 1043 "-" "System.Net.AutoWebProxyScriptEngine/2.0.50727.5448" I solved the multiple access attempts due to page-not-found by adding a zero bite file /srv/www/htdocs/wpad.dat, but still get log entries that I didn't get with the netgear router. I see that wpad is a "proxy look up" table... which I don't see any use for. How can I configure the system/router to not attempt wpad.dat lookups? google explains much, maybe too much, but offers no plausable solution to my problem that I have discovered. I seriously believe it is directly related to the cisco E2500 router as I never had the log entries before installing/configuring the router on 11 Jan 2012. tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] conflicting partition size
by James D. Parra 28 Jan '12

Hello, A while ago I cloned a smaller hard dive with my Suse OS to a larger 1 TB drive. Every thing works well how ever the "/" partition still shows the original partition size and not the true size of the partition. For example, 'df' shows the partition as 359 GB; #df -h / Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda4 359G 309G 51G 87% / <snip> However parted shows the correct size and 670GB; (parted) print Model: ATA WDC WD1002FBYS-0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags <snip> 4 330GB 1000GB 670GB primary xfs type=83 <snip> What can I do to fix this?

I do not want to use kwallet. However, kmail the latest version no longer has the option to store the password otherwise (as far as I can tell). Therefore I have to enter my password each time.

[opensuse] Thunderbird: Everything is 'fraft'
by Anton Aylward 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

I had a power-out crash (don't ask) and when the machine came back up after plugging the power cord in again and locking the cat out I find Thunderbird misbehaving. It is as if its lost a lot of context. Oh, all the account settings were there but all 'history' had been lost, the counts on the folders, and the "moveto -> recent" history. What's weird and what I can't seem to refine a google query to find is this: 1. Every message in every folder is now a 'draft" as in it says "This is a draft message" and shows an edit button. EVERY message in EVERY folder, not just the ones in the draft folder. Its as if every folder has been marked 'draft' 2. When I do move stuff from inbox to another folder (or 'possible junk' to false-positive or false-negative) the destination folder should be added to the 'recent' history. It isn't, that remains empty. I've not met this problem before and it hasn't happened before this morning's cat-and-the-cable incident. If anyone has any ideas about this I'd be grateful.

[opensuse] [Phoronix] XFS Developer Takes Shots At Btrfs, EXT4
by Anton Aylward 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA0NzM What I conclude from this is that there is no 'one size fits all' file system. "Scalability" is not going to be relevant if you don't have big FS or a FS that is being loaded up large (e.g. video) files. There are many parts of the Linux (and for that matter many other OSs) file hierarchy that do not need large files. A FS like Reiser or BtrFS that can fit smaller files in one allocation block so as to eliminate 'wasted space' may be more appealing in some situations. And lets not forget that by its very nature, some of what a FSCK has to do in going to be at least O(2), so large file systems, be it in the number of files or the number of allocation blocks, are going to be expensive in time and possibly memory for a FSCK. And then there's the issue of backups ... Well hurry on the 3.3 kernel! http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA0NDU -- I would rather try to persuade a man to go along, because once I have persuaded him he will stick.

[opensuse] nfsv4 kerberos problem
by lynn 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

Hi I've setup an nfs4 server in Yast. I enabled gss security, created an nfs principal and extracted it to /etc/krb5.keytab. That seems OK because without the keytab, the nfsserver would not start. Yast has created this: cat /etc/exports /home *(fsid=0,crossmnt,rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) mount -t /server:/ /mnt works fine, but makes no mention of Kerberos. I've tried /home gss/krb5(fsid=0,crossmnt,rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) and /home *(fsid=0,crossmnt,rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check,sec=krb5) both of which give: mount.nfs4: access denied by server while mounting server:/ as does mount -t nfs4 server:/ /mnt -o sec=krb5 The server starts OK: Jan 27 22:45:07 hh3 nfsserver[7449]: Starting kernel based NFS server: svcgssd idmapd mountd statd nfsd sm-notify..done Kerberos is working OK elsewhere but what am I missing for the nfs service? What is the method to mount correctly kerberized? is what I've done enough?

[opensuse] opensuse 12.1 locks up
by George Olson 28 Jan '12

28 Jan '12

Hi everyone, Ever since I installed opensuse 12.1, my system from time to time just locks up. I cannot hit ctrl-alt-backspace twice to get out of X because the keyboard is unresponsive. Ctrl-alt-delete does not work either. The only thing that responds is the mouse, and only to movement, not to clicks on anything. The screen freezes and nothing moves. This last time it happened today I had thunderbird open and was doing some emails, as well as dolphin so that I could look at some files. I was not doing anything extraordinary. I might have had firefox open also for something - I can't remember for sure. There does not seem to be any consistency in what I am doing when it locks up. It happened twice today, so this last time I made a note of the time that it locked up, and I have copied the previous 20 minutes of log entries from /var/log/messages here below. Any help to try and get this problem fixed would be appreciated! Oh also, I am running on systemd and not sysvinit. I don't know if that would have any bearing on the problem, but I am open to suggestions. Here are the log entries. The crash happened at 12:39 on the clock in my system tray. I didn't know how far back in time I needed to copy the logs so here it is.

[opensuse] Problem opening Firefox
by Thomas Taylor 27 Jan '12

27 Jan '12

Hi everyone; Tonight Firefox (9.0.1) under OS 12.1 won't open. A message is displayed that states "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible:. Sure enough, .mozilla is missing in /home/tom. Don't remember doing anything with it but may be due to two windstorms within the last few days. This happens from panel icon, favorites icon, or cli. It's my understanding that if the profile is deleted a new one is created when firefox is run again. That doesn't happen here. It just keeps showing the error message and when OK is clicked the message box disappears but the program doesn't appear. Thought of restoring from the backup drive but that got fried during the storms when there was a large power surge. The computer was on a good surge protector (APC) but not the backup drive SIGH!) I also tried completely removing Firefox through Yast2 and then re-installing but the problem is still the same. Obviously I could use another web browser but I prefer to stay with FF for now. Any suggestions or thoughts on where to look?

[opensuse] SSD & fstrim: ioctl failed, why?
by Joachim Schrod 27 Jan '12

27 Jan '12

Hi, On my laptop, I've got an SSD disk with three ext4 partitions. For two of them, I can call fstrim without any problems. The third responds with: pixel:~ # fstrim -v /boot fstrim: /boot: FITRIM ioctl failed: Invalid argument /boot is a proper filesystem on the respective disk: pixel:~ # grep /dev/sda /proc/mounts /dev/sda2 / ext4 rw,noatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=writeback 0 0 /dev/sda1 /boot ext4 rw,noatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=writeback 0 0 /dev/sda5 /data ext4 rw,noatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0 Googling that error message and fstrim didn't bring any results beyond the actual source. Does anybody here has experience with such an error message and could point me to more information?

[opensuse] Compiling on 12.1 but running on 11.4

Hi, I have a piece of software that I would like to compile on opensuse 12.1 but run on older machines with opensuse 11.4. If I do so I get: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by ./prog) The problem is that the program uses memcpy and this is linked against: U memcpy@@GLIBC_2.14 How can I achieve that my program runs on opensuse 11.4?

[opensuse] Two or more kernels
by Dmitry A. Ashkadov 26 Jan '12

26 Jan '12

Hello! Is it possible to install 2 or more kernels in openSUSE? Yesterday I tried new kernel 3.2 from TW (Tumbleweed) and got problem. I couldn't load openSUSE. So, I used live CD to downgrade kernel. If had old and new kernels both, I could have chosen old kernel in grub menu and loaded openSUSE successful.

[opensuse] Ardour missing dependancy and failing to launch in openSUSE 11.4
by Roger Luedecke 26 Jan '12

26 Jan '12

I tried to install Ardour form the Multimedia project repo on OBS. It said it was missing a dependancy, but I resolved it by ignoring it. Can't set it back now to see what is missing exactly. If I recall it had something to do with Raptor. Thought it was odd that a critical dependency would be unresolvable, so figured it wasn't critical. Following is what it coughed up on the CLI. raptor_new_uri_for_rdf_concept called with Raptor V1 world object *** glibc detected *** /usr/lib/ardour2/ardour-2.8.11: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer:

[opensuse] dual boot system
by Tony Alfrey 26 Jan '12

26 Jan '12

Hello all; I have a dual boot system of rather ancient vintage (IDE drive for Windows XP, SATA RAID card in a PCI bus for two linux drives, various other antique features). The motherboard is dying and I'd like to move everything to a modern box, presumably with all SATA II drives, which seems to be the norm these days. I'm looking for a real dual-boot/hardware expert in the San Francisco bay area that can hopefully transfer my old drives to a new box. Please contact me off-list if you are such a person.

There are 8 > lines. The systemd corresponding cmd comes after CGroup:... > systemctl status network.service > But that's not what cagsm wanted. He wanted the whole status info that rcnetwork status used to output. The problem here is, IMNSHO, a severe design mismatch on a high level between the old init.d and the new systemd concept. init.d looked at services as something very general. In fact, anything that shall be started at boot time, ended at shutdown time, or manually in-between, and that might output some status info, is a service for init.d. Anything that might be of interest for a human can be output by the services' status command. For systemd, a service is an initialization of something, or a group of running processes with a master process. A status info is just the information which processes that are, as shown in the example output above, and nothing more. openSUSE systemd proponents, in particular Cristian Rodriguez, have repeatedly called any further wish as unreasonable. I don't know if that view is shared at systemd upstream development, though postings that I've seen indicate that this might be the case (see below for links). If you want, you can read a discussion thread at the opensuse-factory list archive with the subject "Re: Human readable, what is that? (was [12.1] massive data loss in /var/tmp/)", mid to end December. It quickly went downhill into a flame war between systemd oponents and proponents, as happens so often. But inbetween there were postings that presented several use cases for an "ExecStatus" configuration possibility that executes an arbitrary command to get the status. Particularly, LXC container status and AppArmor status were mentioned. These were summarily discarded by Cristian and others. (Cristian was the most vocally, that's why I remember him specifically.) Actually, since their answers did not address the actual use case parts that were cited as problematic, I even prepared a summary post that tried to re-formulate them and addressed specifically Cristian if he could react on these issues technically and not in a polemic way. Sadly, Cristian didn't answer. I don't know if he didn't see it, was fed up by the flame war, or chose to ignore it for other reasons. I don't know the state of the "ExecStatus" proposal upstream, the first three Google page results didn't get me that information. In August, Lennart was against it: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.systemd.devel/3171. In November, a bugzilla ticket mentions it might be needed, but Kay was also very sceptical: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=754127 -- that ticket is not yet closed. In the source, there is a notion of ExecStatus in src/execute.[ch], but I couldn't recognize at first glance if that is about the existing restricted status notion of systemd, or about the eventual introduction of a full ExecStatus configuration possibility. Hope this summary of events that I have read about in the context of service status helps.

[opensuse] hacking a Kerberos cache file
by lynn 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

12.1 Hi everyone. Can't find anything below rocket scientist level on this. I've a kerberized process running under k5start which uses a keytab to authenticate, refresh its ticket and so keep on going. The process runs under a unique uid:gid. By default, the ticket caches go into /tmp. Everyone has access to /tmp so I'd like to put this cache somewhere else. I've thought about creating something under /var/cache with 600 uid:gid 1. Is there a correct place for stuff like this? 2. Google tells me that it currently takes around 8 hours to crack a Kerberos key. Does the cache file contain stuff which would give the hacker a head start?

Any idea about what I am doing wrong ? - the command I used is: dev:/usr/src/packages/SPECS # rpmbuild -bb dovecot20.spec-2.0.17 - the end of output is: Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found: /usr/lib64/dovecot/anvil /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth /usr/lib64/dovecot/checkpassword-reply /usr/lib64/dovecot/config /usr/lib64/dovecot/deliver /usr/lib64/dovecot/dict /usr/lib64/dovecot/director /usr/lib64/dovecot/dns-client /usr/lib64/dovecot/doveadm-server /usr/lib64/dovecot/dovecot-lda /usr/lib64/dovecot/gdbhelper /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/ipc /usr/lib64/dovecot/listview /usr/lib64/dovecot/lmtp /usr/lib64/dovecot/log /usr/lib64/dovecot/maildirlock /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3 /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/rawlog /usr/lib64/dovecot/script /usr/lib64/dovecot/script-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/ssl-params /usr/lib64/dovecot/tcpwrap RPM build errors: File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/anvil File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/auth File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/checkpassword-reply File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/config File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/dict File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/director File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/dns-client File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/doveadm-server File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/gdbhelper File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/imap File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/ipc File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/listview File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/lmtp File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/log File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/maildirlock File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve-login File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/rawlog File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/script File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/script-login File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/ssl-params File not found: /var/tmp/dovecot20-2.0.17-build/usr/lib/dovecot/tcpwrap Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found: /usr/lib64/dovecot/anvil /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth /usr/lib64/dovecot/checkpassword-reply /usr/lib64/dovecot/config /usr/lib64/dovecot/deliver /usr/lib64/dovecot/dict /usr/lib64/dovecot/director /usr/lib64/dovecot/dns-client /usr/lib64/dovecot/doveadm-server /usr/lib64/dovecot/dovecot-lda /usr/lib64/dovecot/gdbhelper /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/ipc /usr/lib64/dovecot/listview /usr/lib64/dovecot/lmtp /usr/lib64/dovecot/log /usr/lib64/dovecot/maildirlock /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3 /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/rawlog /usr/lib64/dovecot/script /usr/lib64/dovecot/script-login /usr/lib64/dovecot/ssl-params /usr/lib64/dovecot/tcpwrap Thanks, -- Nicolas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Mentor wanted for programming
by Roger Luedecke 23 Jan '12

23 Jan '12

I have rudimentary knowledge of C and C++, and have dabbled in Python. I have a basic understanding of OOP. I want to be able to actually contribute in code. Alot of ideas I have seem fairly simple, but I don't have the skill yet to really work on projects. It would be better if I could get an idea started before bothering to propose it to any teams. Ideally I would like to learn Qt, how to make RPMs, and how to use the OBS. Frankly though, I'm not too picky since there are a wide array of things I could work on that don't use those. I have a very hard time with books and such since I have a learning disability, but I learn very well with hands on stuff. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Is there a leak?
by Mark Misulich 23 Jan '12

23 Jan '12

Hi, I watched a video on YouTube the other night. When I was through watching it I emailed the url to a friend of mine via my isp's email. The email isn't connected to Yahoo or Google in any way. The next day I received emails from Yahoo with the urls of the video that I watched, plus others in the series. I also found out that I was signed up for a yahoo group that pertained to the video, all without my knowledge. Is there some kind of security leak in Opensuse 12.1 or Thunderbird that would allow this to happen? Maybe everyone else on the list knows why this is, but I am very surprised by it and don't understand why it happened. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hello, I've a basic problem using a static ip adres in opensuse 12.1. When I configure the static ip-adres in yast the configuration is accepted. but the ip-adres is not assigned to the network card. DHCP however is working fine. setup opensuse is a xen guest on a opensuse 11.4 xen server opensuse 12.1 x64 (with all online updates) I do the following steps 1) open yast -> network devices. 2) assign ip-adres 3) save Things I notice: 1) ifconfig do not show a ip-adres 2) /etc/sysconfig/netwerk/ifcfg..... seems to show a normal 3) no strange messages in log/messages. it only reports up and down of the nic. 4) When I start a ping from a other machine to the supossed ip-adres. there is a brief moment the ip-adres replies. This sometime during yast activating the config. 5) this is reproduce with every installation I make.

Currently it is hard to find a motherboard that supports these devices and browsing specifications one by one for all modern motherboards would be tedious. I found one page at: http://www.motherboards.org/mobot/ but it can not search for the abovementioned device(s) support.

[opensuse] Multihomed network install
by Javier Conti 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hi list, I'm trying to (re)install a multihomed server with many interfaces with SLES (in this case, although my curiosity also applies to openSUSE 12.1). I'm using a network install, specifying network parameters and Autoyast XML file on the kernel command line. Using the "netdev" parameter, I'm able to specify which interface to use, but the problem is that interfaces don't get the same names across reboots and only one has connection to the install server. I have to try several times until it boots with the correct name/interface association. Is there a way to specify the interface by MAC address instead of by name?

[opensuse] [OT] GPS software on openSUSE/Linux
by Roger Oberholtzer 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

I have been using Navit as a live moving map driven by current locations provided by a GPS receiver. In fact, after a bit of fiddling, it works surprisingly well as a part of a larger measurement system, sharing the GPS with other interested apps. The use of Open Street Map data, and not requiring a connection to the internet to make live maps is really great. In fact, working without an I want to add a feature that, I fear, is not really what Navit wants to do. So I am exploring alternatives. I need to add the ability to have a planned route shown and that, as components of the route are completed, are indicated as being completed. In addition, the operator should be able to manipulate this status. How this is to be done is not carved in stone. I know that this is possible in the old ESRI ArcPad application. But I do not think this is supported on Linux anymore. An earlier version was written in Java and could be used. That is no longer available. So I am exploring open source alternatives. Are there any decent GPS live map applications that anyone is running on openSUSE that have this flexibility?

[opensuse] cannot see folders or accounts in kmail
by George Olson 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Hi everyone, I am using OS 12.1 and kontact 4.7.2. I normally am using thunderbird but I had a working kmail setup in 11.4 with the corresponding version. I upgraded to openSUSE 12.1. some time ago. Today for the first time I tried to open up kmail, and upon migration I got the error "failed to fetch the resource collection" and it would terminate before allowing me to do anything. so I saw on another thread to delete the /home/george/.local/share/akonadi file for a calendar problem. I did that, and kmail started up fine. I set up to reconfigure my accounts, I don't need them to be exactly the same as was before, and so I configured them and they all connect to the server. However nothing at all shows up in the left side window of kmail that should show the accounts and folders. I have 2 imap accounts and 2 pop3 accounts. On the imap accounts, I have "show serverside subscription" checked, but if I click on the box to show which subscriptions to show, the list is blank for both accounts. Any ideas on where to look next or what to do? George -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi All I have a strange problem and I'm hoping that someone else has experienced this or knows what's going on and how to resolve it. At the kdm login the mouse is immobile or invisible and the keyboard seems unresponsive. However, if I type in my password and then change to a console screen and then back, the password is entered. The login progresses a bit and then seems to pause. By switching to a console screen and then back again the login continues to completion. That is what happens. I make key presses and or mouse movements when I switch to a console screen and then back the key press or mouse movement is executed. If I switch to a console, the keyboard works fine. It started happening with opensuse 11.4 so I decided to upgrade to 12.1 thinking that it would resolve itself but it still continues. In fact, I could only complete the installation by switching to and from console screens. I did the installation as a new install and not an upgrade. Any thoughts, anyone? Would be grateful for any help. Thanks in advance. Eddie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] DigiKam database migration failing
by Rodney Baker 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Hi all. I'm hoping someone else may have come across this and found a solution. I wanted to convert my digikam setup from sqlite to mysql. Digikam includes a database migration tool so I; -Set up a user for digikam in mysql -Created 2 empty databases as required by digikam (one called digikam, one called thumbnails) -Granted global priveleges to the digikam user (UGLY! but it won't work otherwise - digikam complains that "CREATE TRIGGER" priveleges are not granted if you only grant database-level privleges) :-( -Configured digikam to talk to the correct mysql database -Clicked on "Test DB Connection" in Digikam and got "Database connection test successful". So far so good. Unfortunately, when trying to use the database migration tool, I get the an error message: "Error while creating the database schema". Go into mysql and confirm that "show tables;" in each database returns an empty result, so nothing has been created in the databases. OK, maybe digikam wants to create the databases itself..."drop database <dbname>;" - digikam then complains "Error opening target database". Recreate the databases, double check priveleges, still the same result. Running Digikam 2.3.0, KDE 4.6.5 on oS 11.4 with mysql 5.1.53. Has anyone gotten this to work recently? TIA, Rodney. PS There is an open bug for this - according to the bug report it was supposed to have been fixed in 2.0.0 (the bug was raised against 1.9.5) but it seems not to be fixed...it is also reported to work with Ubuntu but to be broken in Fedora and, it seems, oS. Perhaps there is something not correctly packaged... -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker(a)iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] opensuse 11.4 cinelerra update mjpegtools19 dependency problem

All, Until recently all cinelerra updates have gone fine. With the present update in packman, there is a dependency issue with mjpegtools that is significant.

[opensuse] curious studiowriter problem
by jdd-gmane 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Hello, I just got a curious problem. Some time ago I used studio writer to write a network install cd to an usb flash key. Nothing wrong in this (I could install a netbook with it). Just now I needed this key to hold scanned images. My HP all in one can scan and store directly on such a key. Of course the printer do not know other than fat system. I * removed the only partition on the key with fdisk. YaST can't (because parted can't). This is a small partition, the cd image itself. then I created a new 900Mb partition (it's a 1Gb key) with yast and still with yast formatted it with fat. I could with no problem use it on the HP printer/copier and write there my jpegs I can read them on the printer (if ever I wanted to print them) But if I plug the device in my 12.1, I get two devices, one "generic usb", the other openSUSE-Net and the last mounts and shows the net cd file list (and the file are there, I can read them, at least part of them - not tried all) To read my images, I had to umount this net iso and manually mount /dev/sde1 - after that it reads without problem in Dolphin. looks like there are two content tables (and the images are small, so most disk sectors are not overwritten) I wonder why I had this result. Is it necessary to post a bugzilla ? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] How to enable sound in Gnome installed via KDE?
by PM 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi, I am using openSUSE 11.4 with KDE desktop (default). Now from Yast, I installed two other desktops - GNOME and XFCE. The GNOME version is 2.32 to which I can login. But in the GNOME as well as XFCE desktops, I am not getting any login sounds. I am able to play the songs, but the login sound is not coming. I checked in GNOME -> Menu -> Control Center -> Sound but not able to resolve the issue. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Carlos E. R. wrote: > > It is this first SMTP server the one that sends to the blind > recipients and removes the info. In theory, yes; in practice, No. Yes, your SMTP server would probably remove a Bcc header field. (E.g., Postfix does.) But then it would never sent an email to that Bcc recipient if that recipient is not also listed in the mail envelope recipient list. In practice, your email client (Thunderbird, Kmail2, etc.) removes the Bcc: header field, at least for those recipients that are in To: and Cc: headers. It constructs a mail envelope with a recipient list that includes the Bcc recipients. Your first SMTP server records that recipient list from the envelope, and uses that information to relay the email to the next SMTP server, who records it again, and so on, until the final Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) is reached and the message is passed to the Mail Delivery Agent (MDA) part of an SMTP server. When acting as an MTA, SMTP servers never look at mail content for routing decisions, only at mail envelopes. You might want to entertain yourself by using wireshark to trace your client behaviour and look at the actual SMTP protocol content. I have looked at too many of those protocols and I can assure you that mail clients remove the Bcc header right from the start. You can also test yourself that an SMTP server does not act on the Bcc line itself: Use telnet and type in SMTP, it's not too difficult: ----------------------------------------------------------- puma:direkt $ telnet mail smtp Trying 192.168.129.3...

[opensuse] 11.4, problem with printer install
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

After the repair of my trusty HP DeskJet 400 I was planning to install that printer again on my opensuse 11.4. Much to my chagrin, the install with cups or via yast did not find the driver for this printer. Googgling brought some information why this printer has some difficulties. The HPlip from Hewlett and Packard does not include this printer. But generally it was mentioned that Gutenprint should have the driver. Gutenprint is installed. The printer not detected. I found some sites where the pdd file for this printer was offered. The result of the download showed a .bin file. Somewhere it was mentioned to rename the bin file into a ppd file which I did. Still no recognition of the printer.The Printer is found by cups oas HP Deskjet 400 on USB://HP/Deskjet%20400 Is there some mistake in the addressing? What else should I do to get the printer running?

[opensuse] CPU: higher clock speed or more cores? and: ksysguard possible CPU usage bug?
by Haro de Grauw 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi folks, I notice the trend in desktop CPUs is that clock speeds have been steady for some time at 2...4GHz obviously depending on price, while the number of cores is on the increase, current offerings running from one to eight cores. I always thought that more cores is good for doing lots of things simultaneously, but not necessarily for single CPU-intensive tasks, as these are often not able to run in multiple threads/cores at the same time. I'm obviously not an expert, so do correct me if I'm wrong. To check this, on a dual-core system, I tried looking at ksysguard (System Monitor), and as expected I see that a number of CPU-intensive tasks run up to 49% CPU usage (example: file compression with ark). Surprisingly, however, when I switch to the 'System Load' tab in ksysguard, the graph clearly shows CPU1 and CPU2 both running at or near maximum (100%), even though the CPU usage of all processes adds up to much less (say, 49% for ark, and not more than 10% for everything else). Two questions: 1) For typical desktop use, is it more sensible to buy a six-core 2,5GHz processor, or a dual-core 3,6GHz? In other words, should I prefer more cores, or higher clock speed? (I'm aware of the 'benchmark'-style comparisons around the Internet, but it's their ecological validity I'm curious about.) 2) Is what I see a possible bug in ksysguard, or is there something I'm not understanding here?

[opensuse] OpenSUSE 12.1 not mounting encrypted /home
by Bob Williams 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

I've just installed openSUSE 12.1 on my Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop, alongside an existing 11.4 installation. In other words, each system has its own / (root) partition, but they should both mount the same /home partition, which is encrypted. 12.1 is on /dev/sda3, 11.4 is on /dev/sda6, both formatted with ext4. 11.4 asks me to enter the password for the encrypted partition halfway through the boot process, and is then able to mount it under /home. 12.1 never asks for the password, until the system is fully loaded and I am logged in. Then, during the session, a notifier message pops up saying that device id something_or_other requires a password. The 12.1 grub menu allows me to choose the 11.4 system to boot, but selecting this option takes me to the 11.4 grub menu first, from where I select the system I want to boot, eg 11.4 desktop, 11.4 failsafe or Windows, but it doesn't know about 12.1. What do I need to change to access my encrypted partition in 12.1 and mount it under /home? BTW, I've checked the 12.1 /etc/fstab and the /dev/mapper entry for the encrypted partition has automagically changed the 'noauto' option to 'nofail', as suggested in the Release notes.

[opensuse] One of the reasons....
by Smartysmart34 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

that make me think OBS is the worst Idea ever... Hi all, I just experienced some of the difficulties with OBS based on scribus and I want to summarize it. Maybe someone can draw some conclusions from that to improve the situation. Suse 11.4 delivers Scribus in version 1.4 RC1 which is - due to major technical issues - practically unusable. As none of the subsequent RCs made it to update (where I think they belong because they fix major issues) I started looking for alternative repositories to get a newer version of Scribus. Problem 1: Unfortunately one does not get very helpful information about which of the various repos should be chosen. Among others I found Education/openSUSE_11.4 from which I installed Scribus 1.4 RC3 (or RC4, i can't exactly remember, it was 9 months ago). And I was lucky with regards to future RCs as the Scribus in this repository was regularly updated up to RC6. Now Scribus has been released as final 1.4 some two weeks ago and I was wondering why the heck it was still not updated in the Education-Repo. So I searched OBS again. Below is the list of repos for Suse 11.4 which provide Scribus in some version: Repos Version openSUSE:11.4/standard 1.4 RC1 Education/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC6 KDE:Release:47/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC6 KDE:Distro:Stable/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC6 KDE:UpdatedApps/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC6 spins:open-pc:kde/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC5 KDE:Distro:Factory/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 (final?) KDE:Release:46/openSUSE_11.4 1.4 RC5 KDE:Unstable:Playground/KDE_Release_46_openSUSE_11.4 1.5 svn Problem 2: No one tells me whether the repository I use is still alive, the packages in there are still maintained and whether I should change to another repository to get e newer version of the software. There are 5 versions of Scribus in OBS (RC1, RC5, RC6, final and 1.5 svn). In at least 9 different repos (and I stopped counting after the first page). To me that's ridiculous. Its an unneccessary multiplication of efforts. And still there is no regular update (through openSUSE Update) to the final version so with the standard-repo openSUSE still ships a crappy, segfaulting RC1. Thats why I think OBS does not work. At least the way it is set up and organised at the moment. And it is basically impossible to recommend OBS to a non-nerd in any way.

[opensuse] 12.1 installation failure, need help
by Marc Chamberlin 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Hi - Well this is a fine mess I find myself in! I just installed openSuSE12.1 x64 on my media center. This is a complete new install into a separate partition. My previous version - openSuSE11.3 works fine. The installation of 12.1 pretty much went smoothly, only one hiccup, it froze when it tried to reboot, with some sort of display problem. But when I restarted the computer, 12.1 came up fine and showed my desktop. BUT I have no mouse or keyboard functionality! Kinda makes it hard to do anything! When I move the mouse, I do get a popup from something called BlueDevil which is asking if I should authorize my Logictech wireless mouse, but since I cannot move the mouse cursor, or do anything with my Logictech wireless keyboard, I am stuck in a Catch22 no-mans land... So, could the wizard who designed this part of openSuSE12.1, or some other guru, tell me how to get my mouse and keyboard working? BTW, the mouse and keyboard work fine when the GRUB boot menu is displayed. And all works fine when I boot back up 11.3..... So not a hardware issue, this is a configuration screw-up of 12.1. Booting into safe mode of 12.1 does NOT resolve it either....

What i can report is: Capture device is 'Internal Audio Analog Stereo' , with volume almost at its max level. Capture Streams shows no device. In the system settings, Phonon seems to be ok.

[opensuse] openSUSE for home users?

Hi, I have been using openSUSE (with KDE) for a couple of months now since 12.1 was released. I am a journalist and mostly use it as an average Joe. I am working on a series of articles around my experience with openSUSE and to offer it to those who are not happy with a 'particular' Linux based OS. My question to the community here is: is openSUSE recommended for home users? (I found version 12.1 to be extremely easy to use and wrote a piece here: http://www.muktware.com/articles/3036) Before I take up the job I just want to make sure I won't be targeting the wrong audience.

[opensuse] openSUSE 12.1 rpm problem
by Stephen P. Molnar 15 Jan '12

15 Jan '12

I am having a problem with relocating the installation of the Intel Fortran and C Compilers on my openSUSE 12.1 64 bit system. When I installed the compilers in the default location /opt/intel the root partition was !85% filled, a situation that I wanted to rectify by moving the compilers to a different partition on a larger HD in the system. This can be accomplished by specifying the non-default location in the Intel compiler. So, I uninstalled the Intel rpm's via Yast. This removed the original installation. I then installed the compilers in the new location. Unfortunately, Yast/Software Management still finds an rpm in the old location.

[opensuse] change in KDE repos/package numbering?
by Ken Schneider - openSUSE 14 Jan '12

14 Jan '12

I haven't changed any repos in over a month but now it seems many KDE packages want to be downgraded using zypper dup. One example is kdm: v | kdm | package | 4.7.4-6.30.2 | x86_64 | KDE 4.7 Release Packages (openSUSE_12.1) v | kdm | package | 4.7.4-6.30.2 | i586 | KDE 4.7 Release Packages (openSUSE_12.1) v | kdm | package | 4.7.2-6.4.1 | x86_64 | openSUSE 12.1 Local ISO v | kdm | package | 4.7.2-6.4.1 | x86_64 | openSUSE-12.1-Oss v | kdm | package | 4.7.2-6.4.1 | i586 | openSUSE-12.1-Oss i | kdm | package | 4.7.4-10.10 | x86_64 | (System Packages) I have 4.7.4-10.10 installed (as indicated by "(System Packages)") and zypper dup wants to install 4.7.4-6.30.2, obviously a lower version number. And using openSUSE search I cannot find 4.7.4-10.10 (or newer) anywhere. Have the repos been changed at all? I have the following additional repos for KDE added: # | Alias | Name | Enabled | Refresh ---+-------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------+---------+-------- 1 | KDE_Extra_47 | Additional packages maintained by the KDE team (KDE_Release_47_openSUSE_12.1) | Yes | Yes 2 | KDE_Release_47 | KDE 4.7 Release Packages (openSUSE_12.1) | Yes | Yes 3 | KDE_Unstable_Playground | Unstable KDE Applications (KDE_Release_47_openSUSE_12.1) | Yes | Yes Any hints? -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, Can one explain me if I am wrong or right in thinking the following: We have emails. Suppose someone has at gmail, like: email_address(a)gmail.com. Does it mean that on the server of gmail.com, some space has been allocated to this address which names itself as "email_address", means which is on the hard-disk space of gmail.com servers, a small block of space? And even when someone has deleted all the mails, even from Trash, where those mail actually goes after getting vanished? Or is it like that the charge of those deleted mails (which was earlier residing on the space allocated on the server) gets neutralized, if it happens, how does it happen?

[opensuse] identifying hard disk
by Istvan Gabor 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hello: How can I identify a hard disk drive which is labeled in dmesg output as ata1.00 or ata1? How can I tell which one this is from the installed drives? Is there a linux command that can help? The best would be to track down to /dev/disks/by-id/xxx drive, because that info contains brand and serial number.

I have a nVidia video card. While I have used the nVidia drivers in the past, I recently tried the Noveau drivers to see how they compare.

[opensuse] patch management for OpenSUSE or SLES?
by Meike Stone 10 Jan '12

Hello, does anyone know a software for organizing patches (and possibly software too) for a data center with a lot of server. Before distribute the patches, they should be manually tested on separate machines and approved from a responsible person and than released only to dedicated servers or server groups. We need also an overview about installed patches and packages. I know ZENworks Linux Management, but does anyone know other similar software to do that? Operationsystem is SLES or OpenSuSE, if necessary only SLES is possible.

[opensuse] DHCP lease requests
by Lew Wolfgang 09 Jan '12

09 Jan '12

Hi Folks, I noticed that 12.1 seems to have changed DHCP behavior where a new lease is not requested when the network interface is brought up. This manifests itself when an Ethernet cable is moved from one network to another. The DHCP-obtained parameters, including IP address, netmask and default gateway, "stick". The configuration persists through reboots and manually bouncing the network. Yesterday the only way I could get it to reset was to remove the lease files in /var/lib/dhcpd, then bounce the network. This behavior is new to 12.1, has anyone else noticed it? How can we tell the DHCP client to re-obtain a lease when its interface is brought up? This behavior noticed on more than one install of x86-64. Thanks, Lew -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

A quick look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPDY disclosed you could examine the spdy session with chrome://net-internals/#events&q=type:SPDY_SESSION%20is:active and looking at that showed 1949 events captured with 1 active.

[opensuse] Sound Question

08 Jan '12

OpenSUSE 12.1 64 bit Yast/Sound shows three sound cards: 0 MCP55 High Definition Audio 1 Solo-1 Audio Adapter 2 USB Audio With the above order of cards the Solo-1 is the only one that produces sound when tested. If I change the order and make the Solo-1 the primary card it becomes mute and the MCP55 card which moves index 2 produces sound when tested. The USB Audio card remains mute regardless of its index. All of the sound devices, speakers, Amarak, etc work, with the exception of the microphone. The opne exception for the microphone is the WebCam microphone works in Firefox if I open the Chat configuration in gmail. Unfortunately, Skype will only use The PulseAudio Server (local) for all of the sound settings. Ringing and the Speakers work, but the microphone remains mute. I have tried every setting on the PulseAudio server and have not managed to enable the microphone. Several questions: What will I mess up if I delete the the MCP55 High Definition Audio and USB Audio cards in Yast? How can I enable the microphone? Thanks in advance. -- Stephen P.

[opensuse] APT for openSUSE

Hello, Wonder if exists an APT management software for openSUSE as it was available some years ago. I would like to interact with DEB packages as well as maintaining the standard RPM. Thanks.

[opensuse] KDE crashing bug not fixed in openSUSE
by Karl Ove Hufthammer 07 Jan '12

07 Jan '12

I get hit by the following crashing bug almost every time I log out: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275286 I usually just click ‘Close’ and be done with it, but this I decided to let DrKonqi figure out if it was a known bug. And it turned out to be *very* well known, with tons of duplicate reports. And apparently fixed. But not in openSUSE. One of the more recent comments in the bug is: There is no need for intermediate fixes as this has been properly fixed for a while by now, just look at the bug status. For some reason the fix doesn't get shoved to the distros, therefore we still see bug reports from Ubuntu and SuSe. It feels like distros want to display KDE in the worst possible light (and KDE doesn't miss a chance to help them). So my question is *why* doesn’t a bug like this get into openSUSE? (This is not meant as a rhetorical question; I’m genuinely interested in the answer.) -- Karl Ove Hufthammer E-mail: karl(a)huftis.org Jabber: huftis(a)jabber.no -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] First run of dhcpcd fails
by Lew Wolfgang 06 Jan '12

06 Jan '12

Hi Folks, This is related to my last thread, but I think I've narrowed things down to an actual bug. As Per noticed, my dhcpcd broadcast was timing out, thusly causing it to use the last known lease. But subsequent testing on other platforms didn't show a response-time problem with my local network. So I fiddled around a bit with dhcpcd -k and -n and noticed that the first time dhcpcd runs and issues a broadcast request it always fails. Looking at /var/log/messages it looks like this broadcast is sent BEFORE its interface is up! Could the first broadcast be falling on the floor? Here's the messages dialog, slightly edited.

I run the current Adblock Plus (2.0.3) and I can quite easily examine the filter list. So I've no idea what you're doing.

[opensuse] Moving grub/boot to second disk.
by John Bennett 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Trying to move a 12.1 x64 install from one drive (1.5tb SATA existing) to the other (2tb SATA new). Have copied the partitions to the new drive (using GParted, suse partition now sdb4 instead of sdb3 - created extended partition which was named sdb3... sdb1+2 are windows partitions) Going to leave both disks in the PC. Questions: If I change the boot disk order in the BIOS, does this change the reference to the disks? ie does the new disk change from (1) to (0) in the device.map file? What files do I need to edit in grub (menu.lst, grub.conf, device.map) How do I install grub in the mbr/partition boot record? Have tried googling this, but can't find an answer for my particular prob...

[opensuse] Installing Adobe Air on openSUSE 12.1 64-bit
by Greg Freemyer 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

All, Does anyone know the magic for how to install Adobe Air on openSUSE 12.1 64-bit? I found http://en.opensuse.org/AdobeAir_HOWTO It did not have any 12.1 instructions. I've put in a place holder saying the 11.4 instructions don't work, but I'd like to figure it out. fyi: My wife gave me a calendar for xmas that needs Adobe Air to work. So this is life or death!

[opensuse] What repository should I use for tumbleweed version
by Dmitry A. Ashkadov 05 Jan '12

Hello! I have installed openSUSE 12.1 and replaced default repositories with "tumbleweed:standard" repository and "current" repositories. Many OBS repositories haven't tumbleweed version (folder "tumbleweed"), so what repository should I use for 12.1 or factory?

[opensuse] Problem with IceWM
by Stephen P. Molnar 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

openSUSE 12.1 64 bit running on AMD CPU When I upgraded to v12.1 last month I found the KDE desktop to be quite unstable, requiring logging out and then back in every half hour or so. Not being either a OS or a hardware person, only a user, I solved the problem by switching to the IceWM desktop. IceWM is as stable as the proverbial rock, but I can't figure out how to mount either a Pendrive or a DVD. I've tried googling the problem without finding solutions that I can either understand or am willing to try. I would appreciate pointers in the correct direction. Thanks in advance. -- Stephen P.

Guys, Are there any packages for eclipse-classic or the other eclipse IDE's for opensuse? I checked yast and search.opensuse.org and came up with nothing for 11.4. I got the tarball from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/, but I could swear there used to be packages for this during the 10.X - 11.0 timeframe? What's the scoop? Licensing? -- David C.

[opensuse] Inappropriate shut down after upgrade to 12.1

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, after upgrade from 11.4 to 12.1 (64b, KDE) I face only one problem (otherwise the upgrade was very easy): when I shut the notebook down using KDE's main menu, it doesn't shut down. It freezes on splash screen. There is no way how to get to console etc., I have to hold power button for some time to force shutting down. In log I see only something like this: Jan 3 23:01:38 svarog sudo: vojta : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/vojta ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/sbin/halt -p Jan 3 23:01:38 svarog systemd-logind[968]: New user root logged in.

A few days ago U sent the following message. Repeating ut here because I know it probably escaped your attention with the holidays an all. Hello SuSE people, Fairly mew install of 12.1 with KDE3. 99% of the time when I boot up 12.1 it ends up with a log in commaqnd. But it says it has reached runlevel 5 as per the twp lines abobe the login command. They are: Naster Resource Control Run level 5 has been reached. The next line says: Skipped Services Run level 5 Now I can login as a user and do a startx and it brings up KDE but not everything. No sound, etc. But, if I login as root,and do an init 3 and then an init 5 it brings up the greeter login screen and when signed in as a user everything is normal. Is it possible that this has saomething to do with the new booting scheme 12.1 is using? All suggestions, ideas welcome.

[opensuse] Search on the web

Inspired with: * advices "google that", "ask Google", "search" in our communication media * importance that search has to find information, * abundance of quality and bad information sources, which makes easy to find answer or fall in a trap, I decided to initiate creation of article about that topic. I can't do all that by myself, so it is called "creation". Initial location is: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Search_the_web and later if and when content on that page justifies broader approach it can be moved to a new title [1]. The main purpose it to help experienced users recognize what new openSUSE users don't and can't know, and vice versa. [1] Note that in our wiki title is part of URL, so it must satisfy basic rules for article title (short and still descriptive) and good URL (easy to guess and persistent; no changes after creation without link to new location). PS. If you or anyone reading this have more tips how to safely and efficiently search the web, please add to the list, either here, or directly on: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Search_the_web I can take responsibility to keep article tidy, one day when this one will have enough content, create http://en.opensuse.org/Search which will be dedicated to advices how to search for the information, in opensuse.org domain and on the web, and as additional -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Why no IPv6 link local address?
by James Knott 02 Jan '12

02 Jan '12

My firewall is an old computer running openSUSE 11.3 and I have IPv6 running on it. However, the NIC facing my cable modem does not show an IPv6 link local address, which every NIC is supposed to have, if IPv6 is enabled. The NIC facing my LAN has both link local and public unicast addresses. I had considered that something in my cable modem might be inhibiting it, but when I plug my notebook computer directly into the modem, it has a link local address. I tried booting from a live 12.1 CD and had link local addresses on both LAN & WAN interfaces, so there's something in openSUSE 11.3, as installed, that's disabling it. I tried turning off the firewall, but that also didn't make any difference. Any idea why that one NIC doesn't have a link local address? tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Recompile kernel to get parallel port working?
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 02 Jan '12

My parallel port on the motherboard is broken. Have tried with an USB- Parallel adapter but without success. Just bought me a PCi serial parallel card and hoped to have instant access with my printer. No success. dmesg only finds "ppdev: user-space parallel port driver" No idea what that means. It seems that the card is recognized. Under Yast, Hardware information I found: simple communications controler, Name EF232PCI Parallel& Dual Serial. Looking into the driver disc I am surprised to find there instructions in order to patch linux kernels. In the readme I find, "Linux driver for ITE887X serial and parport. This driver only for Linux kernel 2.4.19 or 2.4.20." They give specific instructions for Mandrake and Redhat and for other Linux they point to the Kernel Howto.

[opensuse] Error after updating libGLEW (for Clementine)
by Marco Calistri 01 Jan '12

Hi List-members, I installed Clementine from the openSUSE multimedia repository, which forced me to install libGLEW1_7 as dependency requirement, then Clementine was usable and perfectly working for awhile until I received a warning by zypper about newer libGLEW1_7, which I provided to install. After such update however Clementine stopped to work and by trying to launch it through the command-line I seen an error on a reference which seems a translation error of a particular statement in the code (my system language is Italian). The newer libGLEW package which contains the broken files/statement is: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/games/openSUSE_12.1/x86_64/libGLE… Thus I revert back to older Clementine version which uses libGLEW1_6.

[opensuse] Follow-up question re nvidia/nouveau in initrd (was "Poor 12.1 Performance")
by Dennis Gallien 01 Jan '12

01 Jan '12

Guys, In regard to our earlier discussion re the kernel modules nouveau and/or nvidia being inside the initrd: In my 3.0.3-1-desktop initrd on 11.4, there are no video modules under /lib/modules . . . /drivers - the /gpu/drm directory is not there (where nouveau.ko is located) nor is the /video/nvidia directory (where nvidia.ko is located). I also see in dmesg that the nvidia module is loaded far down after root has been mounted and other hw modules & drivers are being loaded, just before mounting the additional file systems. So it would appear then that the boot parameter in ref to nouveau that is passed to the kernel by grub is for later use, again not having anything to do with what is in the initrd. And that the nvidia modules is being loaded somewhere during init while nouveau is in the kernel and automatically loaded unless blacklisted? (There are modprobe.d files in the initrd, but not the one blacklisting nouveau.)
