[opensuse] How to stop systemd automounting umounted devices?
by Ruediger Meier 07 Nov '14

07 Nov '14

Hi, just noticed that systemd automatically mounts devices again allthough I've manually umounted them. Here is what I did $ mount | grep local /dev/mapper/vg0-local on /mnt/local type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered) ## umount and disable that lvm device $ umount /mnt/local $ lvchange -an vg0/local systemd[1]: Stopping File System Check on /dev/vg0/local... systemd[1]: Stopped File System Check on /dev/vg0/local. ## enable device again $ lvchange -ay vg0/local systemd[1]: Found device /dev/mapper/vg0-local. systemd[1]: Found device /dev/disk/by-uuid/177a415d-174d-4c30-8897-5502c0419ef8. systemd[1]: Found device /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-uF33oY4c9yu00EPAP42a8A2XZCfQTRRPGfiv0cNZRwPKIRJnOboscsc1z60174dd. systemd[1]: Found device /dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-vg0-local. systemd[1]: Found device /dev/dm-0. systemd[1]: Found device /sys/devices/virtual/block/dm-0. systemd[1]: Starting File System Check on /dev/vg0/local... systemd-fsck[6386]: /dev/mapper/vg0-local: clean, 648240/3276800 files, 9308645/13107200 blocks systemd[1]: Started File System Check on /dev/vg0/local. systemd[1]: Mounting /mnt/local... kernel: [ 5542.579700] EXT4-fs (dm-0): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: acl,user_xattr systemd[1]: Mounted /mnt/local. $ mount | grep local /dev/mapper/vg0-local on /mnt/local type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered) So what kind of automount is this? How to disable this odd behaviour? Is this a known bug? cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hello, I just updated my SuSE 13.1 system, bash to GNU bash, version 4.2.47(1)-release (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu) which is bash-4.2-68.8.1.x86_64.rpm But according to https://shellshocker.net/ I am still vulnerable to Exploit 7 (CVE-2014-6277) : > bash -c "f() { x() { _;}; x() { _;} <<a; }" 2>/dev/null || echo vulnerable Segmentation fault vulnerable I read "Note from the SUSE Security Team This issue is already mitigated by the function hardening patch introduced in the update for CVE-2014-7169.

[opensuse] Why uuid its confusing
by Carl Spitzer 06 Nov '14

06 Nov '14

with all the talk against systemd which should be dumped or the distros forked to remove it I have another older problem uuid is a pain to use . the old way of /dev/* was easier to use and remember if you made a backup of this it would work on another drive whereas uuid ties you to one drive. cat /etc/fstab /dev/hda3 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/hda7 /boot ext2 acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/hdb1 /home reiserfs defaults 1 2 /dev/hda8 swap swap defaults 0 0 is there a way back for 11.4 and 13.1??

[opensuse] libre office and staroffice
by jdd 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Hello, I just had to recover very old course (2002) written with staroffice, just to notice libreoffice do not anymore convert these files. I'm a bit paranoid about backups, so I could find in my archives a staroffice binary :-). Linux one didn't run (lack of some library, may be solvable, but I didn't even tried), but windows versions run perfectly under wine :-). I can convert sdw files to doc and open these with libreoffice. but if I can open sda (draw) files, I don't find any way to export them to *vector* graphics and libreoffice do not open them. do you know any way to convert staroffice draw to libreoffice draw? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

In the previous version of KDE 3.5.x each Desktop could have a different background and even changing background. How is this done in KDE 4.x?? CWSIV -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Well I still do email on a PII under SuSE 10.0 and just in case I saved all the RPMs for upgrading and resurrection. I just have to dig for them as my backup disks are a little disorganized.

[opensuse] oS on a tablet - has anyone tried it?
by "Albert, Oszkó" 31 Oct '14

31 Oct '14

Hi all, I've been thinking for a while on buying a not too expenxsive tablet - 200-300 $ - and putting some linux on it. Android is not my friend. I have a Samsung Galay Tab 2 which works fine, but Android could not get close to my heart. I came accross this article http://www.techradar.com/news/software/operating-systems/install-linux-on-y… It says that oS may be a fine distro with the tablet PC pattern. Newer distros may even be better. Did anyone of you tried oS with any kind of tablet? What are the experiences? Best regards, Albert
