[opensuse] firefox not running java applet ?
by Per Jessen 08 Dec '14

08 Dec '14

This is a resumption of a thread from June or thereabouts, before the summer holidays kicked in and I forgot all about it. I'm trying to access a _really_ old Compaq Remote Insight Board - I've managed to work around the low-level encryption, but when trying to login, the applet apparently isn't started. Back in June Cristian Rodriguez suggested/suspected it might be a Java Webstart app, but it isn't. THis is what the HTML looks like: <APPLET code="CpqLogin.class" archive="CpqLogin.jar" width=350 height=90> <param name="SystemName" value="Compaq Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition"> <param name="RedirectUrl" value="index.html"> <param name="RedirectLoc" value="_self"> <param name="RedirectQueryString" value=""> <param name="Language" value="0"> </APPLET> I've looked at CpqLogin.jar, and with my limited java-knowledge, it doesn't appear to signed, self- or otherwise. I see no error messages from/in firefox. I have also tried with opera and Konqueror, same problem. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.9°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] XDG_RUNTIME_DIR - remote sensitive? (is that a seat?)

I.e. -- not *real sure* where this is used, but say I click on a help link in some program that is displaying on my "Desktop" (as pointed to by "DISPLAY"), so prog is running on server and displaying on another machine that is optimized for displaying. A click on help in prog tries to take you to some URL on the web -- so it sends a message to the Desktop manager to open the URL in the desktop's "selected" browser. Usually, for most purposes, I prefer the web browser executing locally on the display computer -- same with email. How would someone configure where they would like the message to be handled? I.e. similar to choosing what browser you want to handle your URL's, is there a place to tell it to dispatch that message to a different machine? NOTE: I would think this especially important if people are connecting to apps in the 'cloud', that might have high-compute ability, but less good graphical interactivity -- and might wish for basic functions to be provided from local programs. I'd guess this is being thought about "somewhere", in the same way static-content is being optimized to come from caches nearer to the requester than always coming from the cloud-app's host. It seems this would also apply to 'dbus', and is 'theoretically' possible, but haven't heard of anyone who "knows" how to configure it, actually doing so nor anyone verifying that this really works (I've tried a few variations, but never hit a working combo...). ---- BTW -- so if a display is at someone's home, and they are running a compute app in the cloud, where is the all important "seat"? I.e do they need a seat for each remote machine (seems excessive), but where is this seat stuff going? How is it different than group or site license managers that keep track of how many concurrent licenses are being used at any given point? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] snapper

Hello, I see in the snapper pages https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Snapper it's said than snapper can do high system i/o "Now you might also want to disable cleanup of empty pre-post snapshot pairs since otherwise the daily cleanup can cause high I/O" * may this look like a system crash (disabling even the mouse for a long time - several minutes?) * is it possible to instruct snapper to do less often snapshots?

[opensuse] how to see ligs without susefirewall ones?
by jdd 07 Dec '14

07 Dec '14

Hello, I have always lot of Susefirewall message in kernel logs. This makes understanding eventual problems difficult. So I need to know how to see logs without them, either sending firewall logs in an other file or using some journalctl option to have then not displayed thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] OT: how to close Firefox with open Cookie notifications?
by Daniel Bauer 07 Dec '14

07 Dec '14

Hello. I often search for image sources and therefore quite often land on very annoying stupid f***ing s**t pages that want to open masses of cookies. How can I close a firefox-window without clicking each and every of these notifications? - I know I can kill the process, but this will kill all my other open ff-windows, too - Yes, I checked "use this setting for all cookies from this site" Or is there a way to answer all notifications at once? Sorry to ask here, I tried to message to mozilla forum, but my question was not accepted by a "moderator" who probably clicked too much ;-) Thanks for hints!

[opensuse] Keep window borders from going off edge of screen (oS-13.1 KDE)
by Philip Amadeo Saeli 06 Dec '14

06 Dec '14

Running stock KDE on openSUSE-13.1. I'm not sure exactly how to word this because I do not know what it is called. When I first start up KDE, the windows of auto-started apps are placed where I'd like them to be. However, whenever I move them for any reason (or some other app happens to move them), if the window border touches the edge of the screen, then, instead of the window border being snapped to the edge of the screen, it is snapped -beyond- the edge of the screeen (so it goes offscreen), and the inner content of the window is immediately up against the screen edge. I find this rather distracting and quite annoying, especially when I have a multi-screen setup and the window border shows up on an adjacent screen. Is there a way to change this behavior? I would like the window borders to snap to exactly the screen edge, not beyond (i.e., I'd like to be able to see the window border between the window content and the edge of the screen). Also, is there a way to disable the "glow" that extends beyond the borders of a selected window? That's also something that I could very much do without. I've looked through the various System Settings windows, but notthing there seems to apply. I do not know where else to look. Any ideas?

[opensuse] Unwanted kernel messages on VTs
by Mark Hounschell 05 Dec '14

05 Dec '14

Up until 13.2, skipping 13.1, I could login to one of the VTs (via cntrl-alt-F#) and there were never any kernel messages displayed on that VT while you were there. Even when using kernel command line options of "splash=verbose" as opposed to "splash=silent quiet". I can't seem to get rid of these. "splash=silent quiet" is not an option for me as I must have verbose kernel messages here. I thought maybe it was a systemd thing (and I still do) so I uninstalled systemd-logger and installed good old syslog-ng. But that didn't help. Neither kernel or syslog output should be going to my VT. Why does it? Is it systemd? How can I get a "clean" VT without "splash=silent quiet" like I could on SuSE releases prior to 13.2?

[opensuse] oS 13.2: losetup not working - permission denied?

I know I've used loopback mounts on openSUSE before, but today they aren't working for me. As an example: === + ls -l /mnt-ewf/ewf1 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 1000555581440 Dec 3 16:33 /mnt-ewf/ewf1 + sudo /usr/sbin/losetup /dev/loop0 /mnt-ewf/ewf1 -o 209735680 root's password: losetup: /mnt-ewf/ewf1: failed to set up loop device: Permission denied === I have the loop module loaded: > sudo /sbin/lsmod | grep loop loop 28312 0 I tried "modprobe loop" just in case, but it doesn't help. What am I forgetting? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
