[opensuse] upgraded 12.2/x86 to 12.3/x86 via zypper dup - still inside 12.2 reboot command nor shutdown nor acpi-event (inside virtualbox) didnt succeed

upgraded 12.2/x86 to 12.3/x86 via zypper dup - still inside 12.2 reboot command nor shutdown nor acpi-event (inside virtualbox) didn't succeed tried to upgrade (zypper dup) in my virtualbox some 12.2 test machine with default opensuse repos to 12.3. first of all, zypper in zypper or similar commands to first upgrade the zypper stack did create a huge mess of dependencies which i couldn't make sense of even manually, this and that requiring to ditch all kinds of other stuff eventually still needing that and so on. so i needed to directly go for zypper dup after a while it completed and i wanted to shutdown/reboot this machine but it didnt really progress anywhere. i waited for 15minutes and even the acpi power event command of virtualbox didn't gave me any success. so i needed to create the reset command from the virtualbox. when the 12.3 came up afterwards it complained about some disk checks but continued. worth of bug report? anyone else having this? any real manual and instructions on the official ways and best practices on zypper dup, prerequisites and so on? whole machine is default single-disk in virtualbox, and i think single partition in addition to swap but nothing else. i could provide a bit more details if needed. thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] KDE plasma crashes on login
by jide.ogunmekan＠gmail.com 14 Mar '13

14 Mar '13

Hi all, Just upgraded my O/S from 12.2 to 12.3 and on login KDE plasma crashes leaving me with a black screen. I rebooted into recovery mode, flipped into a terminal and moved .kde4 folder to .kde4-old so it would create a new one upon login. It successfully created a new desktop but plasma still crashes and no panel nor icons etc. My setup is Dell XPS L502x 8GB RAM Opensuse 12.2 I downloaded the iso and switched off all other repos and mounted the 12.3 iso and then ran zypper dup to get to where I am. Any help with plasma crashing on login would be appreciated Jide Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone provided by Airtel Nigeria.

[opensuse] zypper issue with NFS repo
by Alvin 14 Mar '13

14 Mar '13

Hello, I am having trouble using zypper (libzypp?) and my NFS repository. When my openSUSE 12.2 desktop attempts to refresh (from within YaST or via zypper on the commandline), I get the following error message: "Failed to mount server:/repositories/misc: on /var/adm/mount/AP_0xknsS2y: Unable to verify that the media was mounted" I have the same repo added on another desktop that has openSUSE 12.1 and it works just fine. The desktop/server that provides the repository is openSUSE 12.2 and exports the directory using NFS4. Both the openSUSE 12.1 and 12.2 desktops (the clients) have identical configurations (both have "NFS v4 Protocol" checked.). If I change the 12.2 desktop to "Local Directory", it works just fine. I can mount other directories from the "server" on the 12.2 desktop without any problems. Can anyone offer any ideas of how I can fix this or troubleshoot this further?

[opensuse] OT: Need a recommendation for a NAS
by Michael S. Dunsavage 14 Mar '13

14 Mar '13

I was wondering if anyone knows a good NAS that can stream DLNA to use as a home media server? I'm considering also building one and using freeNAS, but I don't have much time w/ school and work. Sorry it's OT, but it's the only tech list I'm on. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
