[opensuse] Startup: a Start job is running Load Kernel Modules
by Per Jessen 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

I have a system that seems to be stuck waiting for $SUBJ to complete. I'm guessing this is loading of modules in /etc/modules-load.d/ etc., and I think it is module "ipmi_si" that is keeping it. The question is - why does the startup have to wait for this to complete? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.9°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 13.1: firefox (GNOME) highly unstable
by Andrey Borzenkov 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Firefox works highly unstable since some time. I disappears randomly, and finally I found how to make it crash reliably. Go to https://build.opensuse.org, click on All Projects, clear Exclude user home project - firefox disappears. What is weird - it does it only when started via GNOME shell (favorites or search). It does not crash when started directly from terminal. After install 50+ debug packages and attaching gdb I finally got zero useful information: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007f4008b512f6 in ?? () (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f4008b512f6 in ?? () #1 0x00007f3fec5ab9c0 in ?? () #2 0x00007fff4508e2c8 in ?? () #3 0x0000000000000000 in ?? () (gdb) (all debug packages requested by gdb are installed). This likely would make bug report pretty pointless :( Am I the only one?

[opensuse] Toshiba laptop with 12.3 - automatic suspend/resume stopped working after latest updates
by Per Jessen 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

I have a Toshiba Satellite with openSUSE 12.3 - the automatic suspend/resume when I close and open the lid have been working fine until fairly recently after an update. I can't say which update it was though. Where should I begin to look? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.7°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Broadcom CrystalHD driver - time for update?
by Jan Beranek 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hi all, with current kernel-desktop from Thumbleweed version 3.12.7 (a standard OpennSuse kernel has the same problem) is still included a quite old version od crystalhd module (0.9.27). /lib/modules/3.12.7-7.g78b11e9-desktop/kernel/drivers/staging/crystalhd/crystalhd.ko This version does not support new BCM70015 chip, which is actually much better then old one. Compiling own module is not easy task for non-experienced user. Could it be possible to update the crystalhd module? Working is 0.9.30. For compiling I've used a pkgbuild from arch https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/crystalhd-git/ because without patch it was impossible to compile it.

Re: [opensuse] PXE boot live CD?
by Christopher Myers 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

Out if curiosity, were you able to get this working? I saw that they resolved the bug you put in, so I created a new 13.1 image on suse studio using the version of kiwi they suggested, but I'm still getting the same error. I didn't know if there is any special config necessary? I just built a new base image and added that version of kiwi to it, and downloaded it as a live iso, then set it up on the pxe server like normal. .:.

[opensuse] Video Regression from 11.1 to 12.3 with Radeon 7000
by Larry Stotler 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

I've done a great deal of searching & I can't seem to find a useful solution. I finally got around to getting my old 11.1 install running on my Thinkpad A30p with Radeon Mobility 7000. With 12.3, The video performance is slow, and I can't get MPlayer to play a video at all. With 11.1, I can play an x264 480p video with no problem. The laptop has a Tualatin P3/1.2Ghz & 1GB RAM. I've found all kinds of suggestions, like turning off KMS or creating an xorg.conf file and changing accelmethod from EXA to XXA. Turning off DRI made no differnce. Nothing works. There seems to be a similar regression with uBuntu from 8.10 to 9.04 as well. I tried to copy the xorg.conf from 11.1 to 12.3 but it fails to load. Has anyone managed to get this video chip working properly with newer versions of oS?

[opensuse] Blu Ray Copying
by Jim Sabatke 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

I hope this is an appropriate subject for this list. I have an idea to buy a large disk array with a high speed USB card for my desktop and copy my Blu Ray disk collection to the disks and then have the desktop serve them to my media center. I have researched this on Google and it seems possible, but I've tried so many things that people say work and it turns out they don't, and I can't afford to make a mistake. If anyone would know if this can be done considering the copy protection on the disks I would appreciate any insights. I am already doing this with DVDs that are NOT copy protected by copying each DVD to its own directory. I haven't worked out how to serve them to any of my A/V media yet, but I can use kaffeine. I know there are boxes for accessing media over networks though devices like Roku. Any info and experiences would be very welcomed.
