[opensuse] Grub file missing from etc/default/
by Upscope 30 Mar '13

30 Mar '13

In the last several days I did updated to both my opensuse 12.2 and 12.3 installs. Both versions had a update to grub2. On my 12.3 system the following grub2 packages exit: [CODE] @linux-rpl7:~> rpm -qa |grep grub grub2-x86_64-efi-2.00-19.5.2.x86_64 grub2-branding-openSUSE-12.3-184.4.noarch grub2-efi-2.00-19.5.2.x86_64 grub-0.97-188.1.1.x86_64 grub2-i386-pc-2.00-19.5.2.x86_64 grub2-2.00-19.5.2.x86_64 [/CODE] The last update to 12.3 effecting grub was 3-15-2013 and to 12.2 today. Now when I go into /etc/default there is no grub file. I also noticed today my grub2 menu is now all black and white on 12.3, No nice color menu which was there yesterday. Is anyone else seeing this type issue. I will report as bug unless I am alone seeing it.

[opensuse] Problem starting mysqld
by Bob Williams 30 Mar '13

I'm very much a mysql novice, but I've successfully built a couple of small databases here. Since upgrading to oS 12.3 + KDE 4.10, I've been unable to restart the mysql server. barrowhillfarm:~ # mysqld_safe 130329 17:15:09 mysqld_safe Logging to '/var/log/mysql/mysqld.log'. 130329 17:15:09 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 130329 17:15:09 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/lib/mysql/barrowhillfarm.henfield.pid ended Following which /var/run/mysql is empty. I would expect to find mysql.sock. So, what does the log show ... 130329 17:16:08 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 130329 17:16:08 [ERROR] mysqld: File './mysql-bin.index' not found (Errcode: 13) 130329 17:16:08 [ERROR] Aborting 130329 17:16:08 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown complete 130329 17:16:08 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/lib/mysql/barrowhillfarm.henfield.pid ended So, the problem appears to be a missing index file.

I tried removing mysql-bin.index to see if it would be recreated, but no luck :( I should say that the contents of /var/lib/mysql were restored from a backup after the upgrade, which was a new installation style of upgrade, rather than an upgrade in place, but I wouldn't think that would make a difference. I have not made any changes to /etc/my.cnf. I'm probably missing something really obvious, but I've run out of ideas.

[opensuse] It is not possible to install ClamTk in openSUSE 12.3

Hi, in security repo, there is nice GUI for Clamav, ClamTk. But it is not possible to install it in openSUSE 12.3, because it requires clamav-db, which is not available for 12.3. It is in update repo for 12.2. Could someone, please, fix it?

[opensuse] Gnome 3.6 (in 12.3) - revert to notification panel in Gnome 3.4 (12.2)
by Andrey Borzenkov 30 Mar '13

30 Mar '13

Is there any way to get back notification panel as it was in 12.2? In 12.3 it shifts the whole screen up when opened. And it is SL-O-O-O-W. This effectively makes it unusable to me. In 12.2 it was small overlay on top of other windows. Fast and useful. And yes, I'm using nVidia proprietary drivers so I cannot make it to be any better than it is already. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Not posible to completely encrypt an OS3 system anymore?
by Daniel Bauer 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

Hello, I just installed OS3 on a Macbook and, of course, I wanted to encrypt it as I have done it with all my machines. But ooh: there's no boot.crypt anymore and my many times used approach does not work anymore. S*** So I went to Yast (after swapoff --all and making sure the swap dev was not mounted) and told it to format the swap partition with encryption. It asked me for the passphrase but then ended up in some errors (sorry, forgot the numbers, googling did nod give any results). So, ok, I thought, maybe I do it with a fresh install and directly encrypt the partitions. But ooo, again: when telling to encrypt / it says: it is not possible to have / encrypted (although I have a separate, not encrypted /boot). So, is it true, that is is not possible to have a somehow safe computer with Opensuse anymore?? For me encrypting only the home partition doesn't make any sense when there is a freely readable swap and /. Or did the installer just have a bad moment and made a joke on me? Any hints are more than welcome...

[opensuse] OS 12.3 encrypted home asks 4 times for password at boot
by Daniel Bauer 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

Hello, I am still trying to install at least a half secure OS 12.3 on my Macbook Pro. I did a fresh install with /dev/sda3 /boot (ext2) /dev/sda4 / (reiser) /dev/sda5 /home (reiser, encrypted with the installer) /dev/sda5 /swap (swap, encrypted with the installer) Now at boot I am asked 4 times for the password for /home and two times for the password for swap. I rebooted several times, it's always the same. What I really wanted was a completely encrypted system as it was possible until 12.1 (all partitions encrypted, except /boot). As it is not possible anymore to have encrypted / (*), I decided to at least encrypt /home and /swap, although it bothers me very much, that /root, /temp, /var and so on are not encrypted and thus make my laptop very vulnerable. But entering the passphrase 6 times at every boot makes the system unusable to me. How can I resolve that? I want to enter the passphrase only once. Thanks for hints. Daniel (*) - boot.crypto was removed without giving an alternative. The page http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Encrypted_filesystems enplanes how to "Manually creating new LUKS volumes", but above it says "In openSUSE 12.3 the boot.crypto scripts are no longer available as they were obsoleted by the systemd implementation." However there is no way to encrypt the / during install (it says "/ cannot be encrypted). - using a LVM is not possible in my case (on a Mac Powerbook) because I MUST prepare the partitions with the Max OSX Disk Utility, otherwise I cannot boot. But the installer doesn't let me use those partitions, just says that there is no space to create an LVM. I was googling intensively, but I have not found anything that could lead me to have a secure, encrypted OS 12.3 system. I have a lot of sensitive data and in case of theft I could be made responsible for damages. - unfortunately it is not possible to install 12.1 on the powerbook (it first recognizes the dvd, but then stops telling me that there is no bootable device. I checked the dvd on my other machine, it's fine...) -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Barcelona professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com google+: https://plus.google.com/109534388657020287386 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Shared mailbox with dovecot and postfix
by Oscar Curero 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

Hi, I'nm trying to create a shared mailbox using Postfix and Dovecot. The part of the mailbox itself is pretty simple, just define the namespace in dovecot and that's all. Postfix is another history. What I'm trying to do is something I've seen a lot of times in corporate mail: emails are sent "on behalf of". The idea is that users send their emails from the shared mailbox address ("foo(a)mydomain.com") but with the "sender" joe(a)mydomain.com. At the end, clients see that the mail was sent by "joe(a)mydomain.com on behalf of foo(a)mydomain.com"). Now, users send emails from the shared mailbox but there's no way to [easily] know which of the users that have access to the mailbox did actually sent the email. So, does anyone know how can I achieve this? Thanks in advance! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Setting up network devices with YaST
by Marc Chamberlin 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

I have had this happen before, but unfortunately I don't remember how I solved it.... I am installing openSuSE 12.3 on a gateway server with 2 NICs. Somehow, somewhere openSuSE/YaST gets the device names I want to assign to each NIC (eth0 and eth1) backwards, and I need to reverse the assignments. I have tried the obvious approach of going in to YaST -> Network Devices -> NetworkSettings -> Overview, select the NIC card and edit it, go to the Hardware tab and change the device names. If I try to simply change, for example, eth0 to eth1, it confuses YaST when it sees two devices with the same name, in this case 2 eth1 devices. (even though I plan to change the other NIC's device name shortly.) So I tried a different approach, change eth0 to eth2, eth1 to eth0, and then eth2 to eth1. On the surface that seems to work, according to YaST, but the network remains unusable and from logs and other indications I believe that YaST is not doing a thorough job of changing device names where necessary. I can see log messages showing communication attempts that is going on over the network which is indicating that communication attempts is still being done via the wrong NIC/device. (Wireshark confirms this also.) A question I might ask, if I delete all the network devices in YaST, and start over with setting them up, YaST by default assigns the device names to each NIC but as I said opposite to what I want. Where/how does YaST get this initial assignment of device names for each NIC? Is there somewhere I could go, underneath, and reconfigure manually the device names? (I have done some hunting around via grep, searched all through /etc for example, and no joy finding a magic config file....) If not, then how do I switch the device names assigned to each NIC, if YaST cannot do it?

[opensuse] Trying OpenSuse 12.3, but Apache's httpd server only partly works
by Ted Byers 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

I have done the usual things to enable SSL on this virtual machine. The intent for this machine is to test ideas regarding the usage of apache's web server on Suse 12.3, and while "http://localhost/info.php" works, and in fact it tells me that mod_ssl is loaded. Perhaps I should modify that statement to read that I did the things I usually do on Windows and Ubuntu: an on those platforms, these things (ports open inthe firewall, virtual hosts created using the certificates I'd specified, ensuring that mod_ssl is loaded, &c.) were enough to get successful tests of SSL (the first of which was to use mod_rewrite to force all unencrypted requests to be made again using https - of course, this is domain/location specific). NB: These things also seemed to be sufficient on Opensuse 12.1 However, the server, when accessed using "https://localhost:443/info.php" gives me an error saying the host is unreachable. I ran /usr/bin/gensslcert to create a dummy certificate, and related files, again for testing purposes only (and using dolphin, I see the files it is supposed to create, and with the timestamp that is rational given the time I ran it. I made an ssl virtual host, and set the righ t file names for the certificates, as well as the proper document root. And I made sure that the firewall permits access both on port 80 for http and port 443 for https. Apache's error log actually tells me nothing (there are no errors in it, from the time I first installed and started httpd. Does anyone have any ideas as to why SSL may fail on this platform? Or does anyone have a checklist as to what to verify regarding apache's httpd server properly serving pages over https on opensuse 12.3?

[opensuse] Firefox bookmarks transferring question
by Thomas Taylor 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

Is there an easy/simple method of transferring a single bookmarks folder from one PC to another? I have a large bookmark system on my main PC that has over 45 main folders with many sub-folders in most of them. If I want to copy only one or two sub-folders to another system I have not been able to find a way to do that in the drop-down menus. I don't want to backup the entire *.json file and import it as that would overwrite an existing bookmark list. For instance, I have the following bookmarks: Linux Fedora openSuSE BSD Personal hobbies ham_Radio … If I only want to copy the openSuSE sub-folder from machine "A" to machine "C", how is that done. I don't have enough knowledge of html formats to edit them nor of json files. Of course I could just copy the URL for each entry, open that page on the receiving machine, and then bookmark it but there may be up to 100 entries in a sub-folder and each sub-folder may have many sub-sub-folders and so on. Is there an easy export/import method of doing this? Thanks, Tom -- "Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty."

[opensuse] OS 12.3 on Mac Powerbook: No wireless
by Daniel Bauer 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Hello I just installed OS 12.3 on my Mac Powerbook 8.1 and cannot find out how to make wireless working. There is simply no wireless device seen, neither in Yast nor in NetworkManager. The only thing I found was http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installation_on_a_Mac which is old and talks about a broadcom-sta driver. This is not available in Yast (packman repo enabled). The broadcom page http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php says the driver supports other devices than mine (mine is 4331). Whatever I find in google refers to Ubuntu and doesn't help me much... Can anybody hep me any further? Thanks!

I'm going to wait for the 12.3 final release and, if the behavior will be the same i'll open a bugreport I have already tried 12.3 rc2 with no luck In the meanwhile if someone of you have encountered a similar issue or have a similar partition layout please share your experiences, it would be very useful. What sounds very very strange to me is that nobody has already signaled this issue like me. I think every system with a sw raid configuration should have also the boot partition on top of a raid1 volume. I don't think to have an uncommon partition layout... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bluetooth not working after 12.3 install
by Adolph & Sharon Weidanz 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Hey as the subject says, under 12.2 I was able to use the built-in bluetooth (Bus 004 Device 003: ID 0a5c:217d Broadcom Corp. HP Bluethunder). Once I deleted 12.2 and installed 12.3 (64bit) I have not been able to get it to work. Searching the net has been frustrating.

I mention it because I had recalled that I had used a hub with this scanner at one point, though as I mentioned, I honestly don't recall if that's where it was the last time I used it before plugging it back in. But a a troubleshooting step, I'd be inclined to take it anyways - hardware fails, sometimes in unpredictable ways, and the hub may have developed a problem. If you plug it in directly and it does the same thing, you've not lost a lot, but if you plug it in directly and it works, then you have a new data point. :) Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
