[opensuse] Cannot Read specific ISO file burned with K3B or Brasero
by Upscope 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

Trying to look at CD-R (Intel specifically says to use CD-R) written with K3B from Packman: [CODE] ---------- rpl7:~> rpm -qa |grep k3b k3b-codecs-2.0.2-15.54.x86_64 k3b-2.0.2-15.54.x86_64 ---------- [/CODE] Both k3b and Brasero say the CD was successflly written (3.4 MiB) The iso is a BIOS update from Intels website for OS independent systems. I need to update BIOS to hopefully solve a problem in 12.3 starting up and shutdown. file is: BT2006P.ISO (3.2 MiB) (Specifically called out for Linux by INTEL). When I use Dolphin to look at the CD that was written I get the following message: [CODE] ---------- An error occurred while accessing 'OEM BIOS CD', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sr0 at /run/media/finemanruss/OEM BIOS CD: Command-line `mount -t "iso9660" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=100,iocharset=utf8, mode=0400,dmode=0500" "/dev/sr0" "/run/media/finemanruss/OEM BIOS CD"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so ---------- [/CODE] Looking at Dmesg as suggested, I get: [CODE] ---------- rpl7:~> dmesg | tail -n 20 [ 70.803095] NVRM: Your system is not currently configured to drive a VGA console [ 70.803101] NVRM: on the primary VGA device.

[opensuse] LUKS-key entry
by Hans Witvliet 24 Jun '13

24 Jun '13

Hi all, When using an encrypted volume-group, the key is asked during the power-up sequence. I noticed that, when using lxde, you get the graphical boot splash, fall back to non-graphics-mode, the key is asked, and when supplied you get back to graphics mode. afaicr it is possible the obtain the luks-key while still in graphical mode. But i haven't got a clue which package is responsible for this. Any suggestion? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

I also had an incompatible chromium-ffmpg package installed. I was using Chromium 27.0.1425, but somehow managed to updated to a 29.something of the ffmpg package. The fix for me (so far) has been to update all of Chromium to the 29.0.1541 build form network:chromium. Tested, and so far on all pages it was crashing, it's working now. Thanks for the hint!!

[opensuse] Problem with the latest Chromium 27.0.1425.0 on openSUSE 12.3?
by C 22 Jun '13

I recently updated to the latest Chromium 27.0.1425.0-1.1.1 from the openSUSE 12.3 OSS repo, and am having some issues with it now. The previous version worked perfectly. This release though is constantly giving me the "Aw Snap" error - especially on pages like Google+, the new Google Maps etc. Anything that is using some of the newer wizardry to dynamically update page content is especially bad. I've removed my profile forcing Chromium to generate a clean/new profile and nothing changed also disabled/removed all extensions - still getting Aw Snap all the time. Another problem is periodically it will not play streaming content... example, YouTube. The page will load, the video will play for 5 or 10 seconds and then stop. I can push it along by clicking a little ahead of where it's stopped or a little behind, and it'll play again for about 10 seconds and stop. Restart the browser and sometimes it'll work right... This is all new for me with the 27.0.1425.0 release. Is anyone else (who uses Chromium) seeing this? Any ideas on how to track down what might be broken?

[opensuse] mkinitrd of 12.2 has a small defect, a call for testing
by Lars Müller 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

Hi, some of you might have noticed mkinitrd of openSUSE 12.2 has a small bug. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=792925 is the report to track it. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=792925#c7 provides fixed packages and I like to get some more feedback before it gets on its way to the general update/12.2 tree. Yes, we'll see it in update/12.2-test beforehand anyhow. Cheers, Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team + SUSE Labs SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany

[opensuse] ssytemd and openSUSE
by Istvan Gabor 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

Hello: I see there are plenty of messages on this list related to systemd, and systemd related issues. For me this fact indicates that systemd is not matured and stable enough to be included in a RELEASE as default and standard. To include a question too, I thought that post 12.1 openSUSE versions come with systemd and do not offer sysvinit as an alternative. Still I read here that some users are using or trying to use sysvinit on openSUSE 12.3. So, do openSUSE 12.2 and 12.3 offer sysvinit package(s) similarly to 12.1 which can be exchanged for systemd?

[opensuse] default root password
by Yaning 21 Jun '13

21 Jun '13

Hi I installed opensuse 12.3 by following this link: https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Highbank#Installing_the_openSUSE_12.3_Image_.28… this section: Installing the openSUSE 12.3 Image (direct disk access) After finish and reboot, it ask me login user name and password. During the install, it dose not ask to create a user account, so I login as root, but I don't know the root password. Could anyone tell me what is default root password? or default user/password?

[opensuse] openSUSE 12.1 has reached end of SUSE support]
by Hans Witvliet 21 Jun '13

As not all are subscribed to the security-list.... What surprised me, was the sentence about "no plans for evergreening 12.1"... hw -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: Benjamin Brunner [mailto:bbrunner@suse.com] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2013 5:26 PM To: opensuse-announce(a)opensuse.org; opensuse-security-announce(a)opensuse.org Subject: [security-announce] openSUSE 12.1 has reached end of SUSE support Hi all, with the release of the kernel-update on May 06th, 2013 the SUSE sponsored maintenance of openSUSE 12.1 has ended. openSUSE 12.1 is now officially discontinued and out of support by SUSE. openSUSE 12.1 was the first openSUSE distribution maintained using OpenBuildService methods (known as "OBS Maintenance"), allowing full community participation, from the beginning. openSUSE 12.1 was released on November 16th 2011, making it 18 months of security and bugfix support. Currently, there are no plans to add 12.1 to the evergreen-project. If something changes, I'll inform you as soon as possible. Here are some statistics of our released updates (compared to 11.4): Total updates: 789 (+65) Security: 389 (-28) Recommended: 398 (+92) Optional: 2 (+1) Fixed CVE-entries: 1508 (+193) Fixed Bugs (overall): 1874 (+319) The increase of the resolved issues is related to the easier participation in working on openSUSE with the OpenBuildService. Thanks on this point to our awesome packagers, community and OpenBuildService-Team!

[opensuse] How can I reverse the order of a table in libreoffice?
by Carlos E. R. 21 Jun '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Say I have a table with the movements of an account, sorted by date, most recent on top: date concept total 2012-05-05 A 1000 2012-05-05 B 900 2012-05-04 C 800 2012-05-03 D 700 If I try to revert the order sorting by date on the first column, it may happen that the total column may be wrong, like this: 2012-05-03 D 700 2012-05-04 C 800 2012-05-05 A 1000 2012-05-05 B 900 The first column is correctly sorted by date, but the total column is wrong.
