[opensuse] how to correct scrambled subject lines

They appear like normal subject lines in Evolution but not in the source. Thus frustrating filtering which is based upon the source of a message not interpretation. Is there a program for correcting this so filters can work?? CWSIV -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] ddrescue bottleneck on faulty drive
by Otto Rodusek 12 Oct '14

12 Oct '14

Hi ListMates, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum but hopefully someone will have an answer for me. I have a faulty 500Gb notebook disk that I want to clone and recover. I use ddrescue (with the -n option) to clone the faulty hdd to a new hdd. The problem is that based on the current stats, it will take days/weeks to complete the clone!!! I know that I have a faulty drive, I just want to clone the faulty drive unto a new drive, simply skip the faulty sectors (zero fill on the destination drive) and continue the clone - I don't want the system to keep retrying over and over to read the faulty sector - try once and die and set the destination sector zero-filled. Where there are no errors on the original drive the copy goes fast, but once it hits a bad sector it is painfully slow!!!! So where is the bottle neck? 1) ddrescue - according to the docs if one uses the -n option it wont bother to read or recover the faulty sectors on the faulty drive (I also tried -r1 - read/retry once) but to no avail. BTW I tried both read from beginning of disk as well as reading from back (-R), but alas to no avail as once it gets to the faulty sectors it becomes painfully slow. 2) is it a kernel parameter - ie how to turn of retrying to read the faulty sector n..times 3) is it a sata driver parameter - ie likewise how to turn of retrying to read the faulty sector n..times 4) or is it the firmware on the faulty hdd? (in that case I'm not sure there is a solution to turn of retrying faulty sectors or remapping them) I'm not sure there is a solution but if anyone knows any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Right click menu disappeared
by Mark Misulich 12 Oct '14

12 Oct '14

Hi, On this laptop I have three openSuse systems installed. I have 13.1 with KDE 4.13, another 13.1 with KDE Framework5, and finally 13.2 with KDE 4.14.1 installed. On both of the 13.1 systems, right clicking in any appropriate place will no longer bring up a menu list of actions. The 13.2 system right click still operates normally and brings up a menu of actions. All the touchpad configurations seem to be the same in all systems, and I haven't been able to find any settings to change to restore the right click menus in the two 13.1 systems. Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this? Thanks, Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] firefox & webcam
by Fr David Ousley 11 Oct '14

11 Oct '14

Friends -- I need to participate in a web conference. The website only supports Firefox in Linux. My problem is that Firefox will not recognize my USB webcam. The webcam is fine with cheese. In Firefox, the camera does not come on, and the web page returns "audio unavailable." It looked for audio since it could not find video. I have poked around Firefox help without finding what I need. Any suggestions on things to try?

[opensuse] updating 13.2 RC1 to final release
by Peter 11 Oct '14

11 Oct '14

I was thinking of throwing 13.2 RC1 on a redundant old laptop to test a couple of things. I'd be wanting to update it to the final release when it's ready. Can that be acheived merely by doing a zypper dup? This may be harking back to some dark age, but I recall in the past it wasn't always so straight-forward to update a beta or RC to the final release, and there was even advice against trying to go about it that way. Are there still any pitfalls to be aware of? Cheers, Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

HI Does anyone know how to make changes to the printer config actually work i.e. colour changes, printing quality.? I've got the latest samsung driver installed. The printer is connected to my Linux PC via USB and the Windows machine uses it via Wifi. I can get vivid colour prints if i use Windows but i can't if i use okular, Libreoffice etc on linux, each program allows you change the values but they don't force the printer to do anything different. regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Install same packages?

Hello, on Debian/Ubuntu you can save the package list and install the same packages on an other PC or reinstall packages on a clean setup. This is helpful i.e. for reinstalling systems with backups. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReinstallingSamePackages Is there something similar in the RPM world? I already know "rpm -qa". But this is not perfect. A missing feature is, that I want to install the packages from the same repositories like on the source PC.

[opensuse] Libre office calc insists on capitalizing some cell contents.
by Carlos E. R. 10 Oct '14

10 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, In Spanish the month names are written without capitalization, like "agosto" for the English "August". However, when in a LibreOffice cell I type "agosto" it is automatically replaced with "Agosto". Undo doesn't undo the capitalization. I edit it back, and it is undone. I go to autocorrect, and I add an exception: Replace With Agosto agosto Useless. In options, I untick "Capitalize first letter of every sentence". Useless. I disable "Use replacement table". Useless. What else is left? Where else does it get the order to replace what *I* write with something else? I create a new sheet. I start in a column writing: agosto enero Agosto agosto <--- here it corrects me to Agosto. It refuses to accept lowercase, till I copy paste the first cell into the 4th. agosto on subsequent cells, it forces using the same case as the previous one. Why? Now it insists on using "agosto". Where can I disable that silly, stupid behaviour? ME mandates what to write in MY documents! :-/ In order to correct this, I now have to open a second document, there in a new sheet write the text in the format I want, and copy the cell back to the intended place in the first document.

[opensuse] Volume control
by Reynold 10 Oct '14

10 Oct '14

I am using openSUSE 13.2 on a 64bit machine. I have an external sound card connected by USB - SB X-Fi Surround 5.1 which is SoundBlaster. After installation of the OS I had to install alsa firmware to get the soud card to show up in YaST2-Sound which is now configurable. The problem I am having is I don't have a widget or applet to adjust the volume in the task bar. I also noticed I don't have a network connection widget or applet there either. Can someone please advise me on how to show these two widgets on the task bar. The only way I can adjust my volume is the external speakers volume button which I want to leave at one setting. And I would like to view my network connection while I am connected. Thanks in advance.

[opensuse] How to reclaim performance lost over gradual slowdown?
by Roger Luedecke 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

So, I've noticed how nice a new installation is. Then it gets progressively sluggish over time. Some of it is obvious such as when the programs menu has more programs in it. Other than that though, not so obvious. Do you know any techniques for cleaning up the system to regain performance closer to when it's first installed? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] how is bash scrambling typed user commands?
by jdebert 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Since the new install of opensuse 12.3, there are times when commands entered into xterm windows are scrambled or trashed thus: Entered: "ifdown wlan9" Echoed: "iwanolw fdn9" (sans quotes, of course.) I am absolutely certain it is not merely echoing what I entered. This occurs most often when command is entered immediately after the window receives focus and when there is a delay before the command is echoed by the shell. This also occurs in konsole and mlterm but with less frequency. It has also happened a couple times entering urls in qupzilla and firefox. Any idea what is going on here?

[opensuse] old problem again: time stamps of file on sdcard vfat filesystem
by Istvan Gabor 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

Hello: This is an old problem but I still have no key how to solve it. I have an sdcard used in a digital camera. Photos were taken in February. I want to copy the files from there to my openSUSE 12.2 desktop computer. I also want the files to have local time stamps corresponding to the original time stamp on the vfat filesystem. For example if the picture was taken (according to creation time in the file's metainfo) at 10:30, I want 10:30 to be the file's time stamp after mounting the sdcard. Currently the file's time stamp is 09:30 if I don't use tz option for the mount command. If I use tz=UTC option the file's time stamp is 11:30. Neither of these is correct. I tried yo use other values for tz, utz=CET, tz=UTC+1 etc but they were not accepted. It is really important to have the correct time stamps, so how can I?

[opensuse] SuSE 13.1: kernel panic at boot time
by Peter Maffter 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

Hello, I just updated my laptop from OpenSuSE 12.1 to 13.1. Now the system has a kernel panic from time to time when booting. On the older SuSE systems I was using the boot.omsg for such issues, but I am not an expert for systemd. I now know journalctl /usr/lib/systemd/systemd -b but this does not show the previous crashed boot. journalctl /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --boot=-1 failed. How can I log the boot process to see a complete systemd crash log?

[opensuse] OpenSuSE 13.1: "System policies prevent you from getting the brightness level"
by Peter Maffter 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

After setting my security settings to a more secure setting in yast2 I suddenly get a message "System policies prevent you from getting the brightness level as soon as the brightness is adjusted automatically or via keys on the laptop. All this under KDE4 and on the laptop that I updated from 12.1 to 13.1 lately. SuSE updates are from October 3rd, 2014. This was not the case before when using less secure settings. I've seen Bug 269310 - Senseless "System policies prevent you from getting the brightness level" dialog https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269310 but this is from 2014-01-07 and says "This is still a problem w/ openSUSE 13.1 and KDE 4.11.4." Are there any better news about this bug? Do I have to change some policy settings or file attributes?

[opensuse] Bash shell text entry problem
by Thomas Taylor 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

I'm having a problem attempting to enter the character "C" (shift-c) in a bash shell. When I enter that character alone or in a string, it doesn't appear on the display. I've saved a file containing the string I entered but it isn't among what was saved. This even occurs when copying a string from a listing. I've searched all the global and standard shortcuts but haven't found anything related. I've probably pressed the "c" key by mistake at some time in the past but don't know where to look further. This apparently has something to do with the user profile as it doesn't occur with another user. I've checked my custom .bashrc in my profile but can't find anything there. I know I could create a new profile for myself but hate doing that as I have it heavily customized. Can anyone recommend what files to look at in the current profile that affect bash shell?

[opensuse] Toshiba ACPI
by Paul Groves 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-29x which I have just upgraded to opensuse 13.1 from Windows 7. I am experiencing a few issues which as far as I can tell may possibly be ACPI related but I am no expert. The first issue is with the Fn + F1 etc hotkeys and the lid close action. They do not work most of the time. The buttons are not even detected by opensuse. Although 1 in 10 boots (roughly) they decide to work perfectly fine (including the lid close). My brightness settings etc work fine by changing them manually in the OS so this is just the keyboard hotkeys and lid close button. These have always worked fine in Windows. The second issue is that unless the buttons are working the fan can sometimes be really loud. When the buttons and lid are working then the fan is fine and runs just as it always has done in windows. Apart from these issues opensuse 13.1 runs perfectly on this laptop. Can anyone help me with these issues? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] XFS filesystem total failure on return from hibernation.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, Since yesterday (after an update), I have experimented twice the same problem, on return from hibernation. XFS fails completely, lots of kernel messages. System has to be restarted, recovery is impossible otherwise. It seems to affect one partition only (?), the one that has my home, on xfs. I booted the 13.1 XFCE rescue image, tried to xfs-repair that one. It complained that there was a log, that I should attempt to mount it first. Mount hung. It is unkillable. Reboot of system hung. smartctl -a gives no hint of problem. The hard disk is new (190 hours). I run "xfs_repair -L" on that disk, which succeeds with no error report. I'm at the moment running the long SMART test on that disk. It will take 226 minutes. This is the first report of error in the log: I will put a more complete version of the log in another post. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Loosing tabs in firefox
by Anton Aylward 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

I'm running FF 32.0.2 on suse 13.1 under KDE. All up to date. Previously I've made great use of tab groups so that I can categorise and keep to work/subject areas and not drown in tabs. But this last update seems to have screwed all that. First, I found that while the tab groups existed they were all empty and all the tabs had been moved to the 'main' group. So I moved them back. But after restarts I've found that they first moved back to 'main' and are now disappearing. Starting this morning I find that not only all those tabs in tab groups aren't there in the tab groups any more but the groups don't exist any more. Yes I use the Tab Group Helper and Tab Mix Plus. I've been using the latter for years and the former since it came out, no problems until this last upgrade. Is this a 'roll back' problem or what? I see this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1003915 and yes I've tried fiddling with sessionstore.* but it doesn't help, it keeps happening.

[opensuse] a broad appeal to fix opensuse's package-management's repository/redirector failure & recovery mechasnism
by grantksupport＠operamail.com 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

In my experience, package management's routine failure to find/use a 'healthy' repository is a long-standing production problem. I'm requesting a fix. Here's a summary: I run Opensuse 13.1 on numerous machines lsb_release -rd Description: openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (x86_64) Release: 13.1 Current count is ~200. The machines are installed at multiple locations around the globe. They're connected to the 'net via a variety of different networks providers. Some of the machines are directly connected to the 'net, some are behind LAN routers, switches & firewalls. Package management for all of the machines is handled exclusively via zypper cli. Each machine has a common core of repositories defined in /etc/zypp/repos.d, and frequently has a number of additional @openSUSE dev (!'home') repos defined. In ALL cases, the default install of repos sets have been installed with the meta-director as baseurl, baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/... Regular package maintenance consists of zypper clean --all zypper (d)up The maintenance frequency is nominally 1/wk, often 1/dy, and in devs' cases, often more frequent. In virtually ALL cases, the update process regularly fails @ retrieving/refreshing the repos' (meta)data. For example, a typical result is: ... Checking whether to refresh metadata for KDE4-Extra-Unstable Retrieving: repomd.xml .......................................................................................[error] File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Unstable:/Extra/KDE_Current_…' Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i/? shows all options] (a): ... This occurs occassionally for any/all repos, whether the standard distribution repos (security, update, etc), core DM (e.g. KDE*) additional repos, or the more 'esoteric' !home OBS-hosted repos (e.g., security:netfilter). The failure rate for overall update/upgrade process attempts is, very roughly, ~15%. The error is NON-recoverable. 'Abort' & 'retry' *never* work. Chats @ IRC re: the issue typically result in the same '(non)responses' : "wait", "works for me", "prove it", etc. The ONLY solution(s) that work are: (1) wait some random amount of time -- typically hours, occassionally days -- until the system magically heals itself, (2) visit the download.opensuse.org link for the repo, click 'details' for a target page, identify a specific working/available repo for the package(s) of interest, and manually edit baseurl= for the problematic repo. Neither is tenable for a reliable operating environment. It is simply unmanageable in either a single, local or widely-distributed environment. (2) is further confounded by the fact that, at any given time, a previously-working, manually-selected repo may, itself, fail, requiring -- yet again -- another manual intervention. Within the scope of our environment, no other distro's package management system has anywhere near the failure rate demonstrated here. (We've ~600+ other machines running a mix of Centos, Fedora, Debian & Ubuntu). This has been occurring for literally years, across multiple openSUSE versions, and remains unaddressed. I know, without any doubt, that others experience similar/frequent failures -- it's been a frequent discussion with our partners, as well as in openSUSE* IRC channels. This needs a fix. As to what, specifically, that fix can/should be -- I'm unclear. If a solution already exists, I'm unaware. One idea -- a fallback mechanism *within* a repos' definition would be useful For example, allow in a given repo's def'n, having multiple, numbered baseurls baseurl1=http://direct/url/to/specific/site/1/... baseurl2=http://direct/url/to/specific/site/2/... baseurl3=http://download.opensuse.org/... ... baseurlN=http://direct/url/to/specific/site/3/... and add fuction to zypper so that for each repo, the baseurls would be tried in order for any given failure. By adding, e.g., a failcount2abort=X to either/both a given repo's defn, or /etc/zypp(er).conf, the overall process could be terminated if there were "X" # of subsequent fails, indicating a likely systemic problem requiring further intervention. I'd appreciate hearing from "those responsible for keeping the redirector & repos working" re: * acknowledgement, or refusal thereof, of the failure issue * clarification as to why it occurs in the first place * ideas/suggestions as to what can/should be done to fix it Thanks.

[opensuse] Linux and multicast
by James Knott 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

As an experiment, I tried pinging 224.0.0.1, which is the all hosts multicast address, which all hosts are supposed to respond to. When I do that, I only get a response from my Yamaha A/V receiver. Other devices, including computers running Linux and Windows 7 do not respond. I get the same results if I ping the local network broadcast address, only the A/V receiver responds. Given that all devices are supposed to respond, does anyone know why Linux or other devices don't? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

That's why IPv6 uses multicasts to groups such as all hosts, all routers etc., in addition to things like multimedia streams, which actually reduce bandwidth by not having to duplicate the stream to all listening devices. While multicasts are used on IPv4, they weren't used to their potential as multicasts were an afterthough, replacing the old class D address block. On the otherhand, multicasts are an integral part of IPv6 operation. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

That appears to do it for multicasts, broadcasts and multicasts. However, broadcasts from outside the network should be blocked by the routers to prevent that attack. But multicasts and local broadcasts should still work, as happens with my A/V receiver. Is perhaps that setting a bit too agressive in blocking multicasts and local broadcasts, in addition to broadcasts? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] outgoing tcp connections are limited to 200 kb/s, how to fix?
by Robin Roth 02 Oct '14

02 Oct '14

Dear all, since a reboot about two weeks ago, on a server I use, all outgoing tcp connections are limited to about 200 kb/s. Incoming tcp and udp both ways is fine (1 GB/s) and also when using multiple connections simultaneously higher bandwidths can be reached. The server is running 12.3. The problem appears with apache, but also when testing with iperf. There is only one switch in between my machine and the server and switching the port with other machines doesn't help. Things I already tried: - disabling susefirewall, completely empty iptables - check tc (shows no entries) - playing around with tcp buffers, like discussed at https://fasterdata.es.net/host-tuning/linux/ - reboot :) Do you have any suggestions what could be the problem?

I tried acroread, ocular, same thing, BUT kpdf prints absolutely OK!! so I guess the problem is not in the driver? of course, I know of the pronter options, but none is acjnowledged, the print is the sama, whta ever setup is done for the printer any idea? I can use kpdf for pdf's, but from libreoffice its boring to print only from pdf :-( thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
