[opensuse] boot.lvm not being executed ?
by Per Jessen 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

I seem to remember having seen this before, but I'm not sure. On my newly upgraded 12.2 system, /etc/init.d/boot.lvm is, afaict, not being executed on startup, so all LVs remain inactive. stork1:/etc/init.d # find . -iname \*lvm\* ./boot.d/K05boot.lvm ./boot.d/S09boot.lvm ./boot.lvm When I run it manually, it works fine: stork1:/etc/init.d # ./boot.lvm start redirecting to systemctl Waiting for udev to settle... Scanning for LVM volume groups... Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "xxxxxxxxx" using metadata type lvm2 Found volume group "xxxxxx" using metadata type lvm2 Activating LVM volume groups... 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "xxxxxxxxxxx" now active 5 logical volume(s) in volume group "xxxxxx" now active Before I go and open a bugreport, I was just wondering if anyone else is seeing a similar behaviour? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (22.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Systemsettings>inputdevices>keyboard>advanced>keyboardoptions: Eurosign on 5, does not apply.
by Oddball 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi, Normally the eurosign combination is ctrl+alt+5 In systemsettings is the option to assign the eurosign to some keys. This option does not work. Or i do something wrong? There is no description of what combination is used, or how to choose that combination. Does anyone know how to do it? I am tired of writing Eu, instead of €. It is always a lot of fuss to choose from a menu. thanx. -- Have a nice day, Oddball.

[opensuse] Authentication problem to Google calendar with Thunderbird
by Robert Schweikert 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi, Just ran zypper up today on a 12.1 box and pulled Thunderbird 16.0.2. After restart of Thunderbird Lightning 1.8 was installed. It appears that the combination somehow breaks my access to my Google Calendar. I am no longer able to authenticate and see my calendar. On my 12.2 box the same combination (TB 16.0.2 + Lightning 1.8 + Provider for Google Calendar 0.17) works just fine. Anyone any idea what's going on? Due to some bugs with Xemacs, and vpnc I am not ready to move to 12.2 on my 12.1 box. Help is appreciated.

by Oddball 05 Nov '12

Hi List, Novell's login page is 'improved'.... It does not remember username and password, they do not get pre-selected, but they are stored in the browser. You all know what that means... Is there anyone that has a working auto login script? This one does not work anymore..... :-( http://snorp.net/2008/08/25/novell-bugzilla.user.js-updates.html thanx for the trouble.. ;-) -- Have a nice day, Oddball.

[opensuse] grub 2 and kernel options
by eddie 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Recently, someone forgot the root password for their system and I guided them through using the kernel options in grub ver. 1 I then began to wonder how do you do the same thing in Grub v2. How does one specify kernel options in Grub v2.? How does one recover if they have forgotten their root password and the system is using Grub v2? Just curious. I would like to know before I need to know. Thanks Eddie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What to use for VM? (WinXP64 guest?)
by Linda Walsh 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

I started with yast2 and made the mistake of installing virtualbox -- but I guess that module is tainted and problematic (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTk5Mw) So what should I use instead?

[opensuse] Flash full screen and Twinview
by C 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Here's a new one :-) I've got two displays (both 1920x1080) set up as Twinview on a nVidia video card. I want to play Flash video full screen on one screen (Display 1) while working on the other screen (Display 2). If I start a Flash video, switch to full screen, this all works as expected, but... when I click on the other screen, the full-screen Flash on Display 1 switches back to the small window in the browser. I've tried using different browsers etc just to see if it was related to working in the same browser on two displays, but it is the same - in fact it doesn't matter what I click in/on in Display 2, Flash on Display 1 will instantly switch to small size from full screen. Any ideas on this one? C -- openSUSE 12.2 x86_64, KDE 4.9.2 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
