[opensuse] Start up order problems with NetworkManager
by Scott Simpson 11 Dec '12

11 Dec '12

SuSE 12.2 I've switched from ifup/ifdown to NetworkManager for my ethernet devices. All my DHCP addresses are now working swimmingly (using dhclient). However, I have a slight startup order problem. I'm using ypserv/ypbind and automounts that use the NIS maps. When the machine comes up, ypserv/ypbind start correctly but I have to restart ypbind to get it to work (and restart the automounter since it depends on NIS). I don't need to restart ypserv. I think this is some script ordering issue I didn't see with ifup/ifdown. The same is true for my Kerberos server. It doesn't seem to come up using NetworkManager (but does with ifup/ifdown). I'll have to investigate the systemd logs further since I don't know a lot about systemd (yet). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SuSE 12.2: MTU size wrong causes IPV6 client dhclient6 to fail
by Scott Simpson 10 Dec '12

10 Dec '12

I have my network card configured for IPv4 and IPv6 from my ISP. It isn't getting an IPv6 address. The daemons started are /sbin/dhclient6 -6 -cf /var/lib/dhcp6/dhclient6.eth1.conf -lf /var/lib/dhcp6/dhclient6.eth1.lease -pf /var/run/dhclient6.eth1.pid -q eth1 /sbin/dhcpcd --netconfig -L -E -c /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/dhcpcd-hook -t 0 -h madhatter eth1 for the IPv6 and IPv4 addresses respectively. When I reboot, my ethernet card has an MTU of 576 which isn't large enough to process an IPv6 address. If I bring down dhclient6, do an ip link set eth1 mtu 1500 and then rerun dhclient6 then it grabs an IPv6 address and assigns it to the interface correctly. How can I change this MTU so I don't have to manually do this? Scott -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Chromium on 12.2 <>Chrome
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 10 Dec '12

10 Dec '12

Using Chromium already for a long time and are satisfied with the program. Since today I am pestered with a advertisement for Chrome on a dutch daily site ad.nl which asks me to start using chrome and presents me with a video. Every time the site reloads (every five minutes I guess) this video starts over. it for now eats in my CPU. Would like to inform the advertisement that chromium=chrome is already running . Is there something I can do to get rid of this unnecessary ad, apart from downloading chrome? -- Linux User 183145 using KDE4 on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 12.2 (i586) Kernel: 3.4.11-2.16-default KDE Development Platform: 4.9.4 "release 4" 12:34pm up 1 day 11:10, 3 users, load average: 4.46, 3.01, 2.37 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 12.2 Download
by Chris Arnold 08 Dec '12

08 Dec '12

List, I have been trying to download 12.2 64 bit from the opensuse.org website for 2 days. I primarily use a Mac with osx and just double click to mount a iso. I also get an error about not being able to mount the image on another Mac with osx (so I am sure it is not my Mac that is the problem). These same macs can mount any other image. My question, is anybody else experiencing ISo issues with the opensuse download? I have tried direct download, torrent and other mirrors with the same issue.

[opensuse] question on education repository
by George Olson 08 Dec '12

08 Dec '12

Hello all, I am selling a 10 year old desktop that I just recently installed openSUSE 12.2 on (32 bit) with an 80 gb hard drive. The person that is buying it was asking about educational games for kids to put on it, so I thought I would install the education repository and check out what was available. However, I found that on the openSUSE website, the last stable education repository that was made available was for openSUSE 11.0. (see here: http://en.opensuse.org/Education_repositories) So I am wondering what decisions were made about the education repository? Is there something else that covers everything in it for later distributions? It turns out that I think they are going to install windows xp on the computer anyway, but it made me curious about what is going on with that. -- George Olson Box #1: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.2 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | ATI Radeon HD 3300 | 16GB Box #2: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.1 | AMD Athlon X3 | 64 | nVidia C61 GeForce 7025 | 4GB Laptop: 12.2 | KDE 4.9.2 | Core i7-2620M | 64 | Intel HD Graphics 3000 | 8GB learning openSUSE and loving it -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] KDE upgrade from 4.8 to 4.9
by Davi C. Rodrigues 07 Dec '12

07 Dec '12

After the answers to my question on Okular 0.15, I would like to do a KDE upgrade. I have opensuse 12.2. Before proceeding I would like to check if I am not doing anything dumb. >From https://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories I just learned which repos I need to add. I read that before adding the new repos I must disable the two repos: KDE:Extra KDE:UpdatedApps The above are the only active repos with "KDE" in the name that I have. To disable a repository I only need to unckeck the "Enabled" option in Yast / Software Repositories, or should I delete the repository without cheking "Keep Downloaded Packages"? Finally, just to double check, such upgrade is "stable" and usually happens without issues, right?
