[opensuse] OpenSuSE 12.1: connect-debounce error
by Peter Maffter 13 Jul '12

13 Jul '12

I am still testing my new machine. First I had problems with the fake raid of my AsrockZ68 Extreme4 Gen3: OpenSuSE 11.4 was not able to handle this in RAID1 mode. I switched to OpenSuSE 11.3 which worked. But I still wanted a new version of SuSE so I tried 12.1 a few days ago. There was a huge problem with Systemd and RAID mechanism which gave me the impression that this part is far too immature to be used. This view of mine is confirmed by the many problems of systemd that can be read on the internet. I switched back to SysV initialization instead of Systemd. SysV works now. But both initialization methods show an error: "<3>[ 4.722529] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled" This was not shown when booting SuSE 11.3 so I wonder why SuSE 12.1 fills up the logfile with that message: "... Feb 10 10:07:53 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 246.401407] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:07:55 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 248.441347] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:07:57 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 250.489279] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:07:59 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 252.537238] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:08:01 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 254.585179] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:08:03 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 256.633113] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:08:05 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 258.677047] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled Feb 10 10:08:07 linux-wc9i kernel: [ 260.724980] hub 1-1:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled ..." :-( All USB ports seem to work and accept e.g. USB sticks. USB ports are ok as far as I can see. No hardware was changed between 11.3 and 12.1. Luckily I have the boot.msg from 11.3 and there are differences when detecting USB: SuSE 12.1: <6>[ 2.110478] hub 1-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 2.130475] hub 2-0:1.0: 2 ports detected .... <6>[ 2.555082] hub 1-1:1.0: 6 ports detected <===this one shows the debounce later on ... <6>[ 2.799073] hub 2-1:1.0: 8 ports detected .. <6>[ 6.116515] hub 3-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 6.116672] hub 4-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 6.117044] hub 5-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 6.117148] hub 6-0:1.0: 2 ports detected SuSE 11.3 detects USB different and showed no error: <6>[ 1.066475] hub 1-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 1.080467] hub 2-0:1.0: 2 ports detected ... <6>[ 1.459873] hub 1-1:1.0: 6 ports detected ... <6>[ 1.678075] hub 2-1:1.0: 8 ports detected ... <6>[ 4.443160] hub 3-0:1.0: 4 ports detected ... <6>[ 4.443582] hub 4-0:1.0: 4 ports detected Is there a bug in the USB detection of SuSE 12.1?

[opensuse] SuSE 12.1: KMail 4.7.2 unusable
by Peter Maffter 04 Jul '12

04 Jul '12

I just transferred my emails from my old kmail to the kmail 4.7.2 in OpenSuSE 12.1 via import. Afterwards akonadi_agent_l is really going "mad". When I tried to resort the approx 65k of SuSE mailinglist stuff it went "mad" second time (I had to kill kmail and akonadi_agent_l). Sometimes nepomukservices, akonadi_nepomuk, akonadiserver also jump in and the (quadcore !) machine uses nearly 90% of CPU for that crap! What are these programs doing (I was not able to find a manpage for this on my downloaded 12.1)? Can I make them completely silent or switch them off? Currently thunderbird is much faster and usable and I am thinking of moving to thunderbird finally. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem with acroread 9.4.7-3.7.1 and libpango
by Peter Maffter 24 Jun '12

24 Jun '12

Hello, I tried to install acroread 9.4.7-3.7.1 on my OpenSuSE 12.1 64Bit and get the following error message: "nothing provides libpango-1.0.so.0 needed by acroread..." See here: http://www.imagebanana.com/view/qfa95ncy/acroreadlibpangoproblem.png libpango is installed but as libpango-1_0-0 Does the underscore make a problem here? How can I install acroread on my OpenSuSE 12.1 64bit? Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] OpenSuSE 12.1 : KDE: how to make minimized windows kind of "greyed out"?
by Peter Maffter 12 Jun '12

12 Jun '12

In former KDE version I could see, which Windows are minimized in the task bar: [URL=http://www.imagebanana.com/view/p6vebyxv/unusedwindowsKDE.png][IMG]http…] : the 2 firefox in the upper row are maximized the 2 firefox windows in the lower row are minimized. Is this possible in KDE in SuSE 12.1? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] firefox/thunderbird and root certificates
by Per Jessen 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

I'm trying to install a new root CA - I've placed it in /etc/ssl/certs, and done the rehash. Testing openssl s_client works, but firefox doesn't seem to recognise it. Does firefox not look in /etc/ssl/certs or do I need a magic wand? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Data corruption with 3.4 Kernel from Tumbleweed repo
by Moby 08 Jun '12

08 Jun '12

Just a word of caution in case anyone else is boldly tumbling through tumbleweed. I updated to kernel-default-3.4.0-x from the tumbleweed repository yesterday. The machines are primarily used as "nfs servers" and the nfs exports are mounted for use by vmware vSphere hosts. Today, there was massive disk corruption on all files being written to the nfs shares. Not sure if anyone else is seeing this but just something to keep in mind before using the Tumbleweed repo. -- --Moby They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Email sender address
by Koenraad Lelong 07 Jun '12

07 Jun '12

Hi, I have an application running on a machine that sends status-mails. Unfortunately, it has no means to define a sender address. Instead it uses '@domain-name' (= nothing before the @). I filed a bug-report with the manufacturer. But what make me wonder, postfix _does_ accept the address that is sent and the whole message. Only afterwards the message is bounced, in the log file 127.0.0.1 does this, or at least tries it since there is no real sender-address. I think it's the spam-filter that does this. Shouldn't postfix reject the message immediately when receiving the incomplete sender-address ? Or do I have some configuration error ? Now the application thinks it sent the message OK, and its log-files reports success.
