[opensuse] KDE and console use different encoding
by Stefan Gofferje 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Hi, I just coincidentally stumbled over this... It seems that my KDE uses ISO-8859-1 encoding while the console uses UTF-8 encoding. That makes for a bit of a mess when you edit scripts or other texts which are to be used by the system with kwrite. How can I set the encoding in KDE? -Stefan -- (o_ Stefan Gofferje | SCLT, MCP, CCSA //\ Reg'd Linux User #247167 | VCP #2263 V_/_ Heckler & Koch - the original point and click interface

[opensuse] QEMU & shared folders
by Duaine Hechler 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Re: qemu - can shared shared folders be used ? If so, can they be created as easily as VirtualBox ? Also, for non-games usage, which one would be faster running Win 7 - VB, VMware or QEMU ?

[opensuse] versions missing in 13.1 needed to build gnome-controlcenter...
by Linda Walsh 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Tried to build gnome-controlcenter, but it dies claiming it needs : pkgconfig(colord) >= 0.1.34 is needed by gnome-control-center-3.10.1-1.1.x86_64 pkgconfig(colord-gtk) >= 0.1.24 is needed by gnome-control-center-3.10.1-1.1.x86_64 But the repo for 13.1 only has colord-1.1.2-2.1 which doesn't cut it? Also can't find a colord-gtk at all? So is there a separate repo for pkgconfig? Also don't see any 'devel packages for colord... Why do I have rpm colord 1.1.2 but pkgconfig needs 0.1.34??? This is more than a bit confusing... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Disable encrypted home
by Mateusz Mielczarek 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

Hello to everyone. One day I decide to encrypt my home partition at work. I read on opensuse Wiki, that opensuse uses LUKS. But then I find information that I can use a YaST to encrypt. I opened YaST -> Users managment -> choose my user and checked 'Use encrypted home directory', I wrote password and ok. Now in terminal everytime when I want to use sudo command i get 'pam_mount password' instead of 'root password'. Now I do not want to use this option. I Log in into root account, open YaST, choose 'Users Managment' and choose my users. When I unchecked this option and choose 'write changes now', there is a problem, that 'image cannot be open' (there is some user.img at /home directory). So my question is how can I disable this option ? (I am using openSUSE 13.1). -- M.M -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] set environment variable
by CA G Rajesh 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

Hello all, I need to set some environment variables and I have stated where I have placed them. Please check whether I am correct or is there any duplication/redundancy: 1. Locale LC_ALL=en_IN.utf-8 This has been set in ~/.profile and ~/.bashrc. A separate executable file is also created under ~/.kde4/env/ 2. IME I use fcitx. I find this better integrated with KDE (than IBus) for typing my mother tongue Tamil (ta_IN). I have set variables in ~/.profile, ~/.xim and ~/.bashrc 3. Libreoffice Libreoffice-kde(4) is problematic - like during dragging cells. So, I've set "export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome" in ~/.profile and ~/.bashrc 4. Gnupg Agent I need this for digitally signing my mails (with pkcs11 DSCs). Starting/stopping commands are included in ~/.profile and ~/.bashrc. Separate executable files each for starting and stopping respectively are placed in ~/.kde4/env/ and ~/.kde4/shutdown/ Now, as you may see, I have placed some variables at two or three places. Is it needed/correct? Or is there any better way to do this? Thanks in advance.

[opensuse] 13.1 install overwrites mbr
by Anton Aylward 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

Foolish me! I've been running 12.3 quite happily. I bought a new drive and decided to install 13.1 on it. That went OK. But *sigh* the need for more config tweeks! The real problem s that I _thought_ I was installing the boot on the mbr of the new drive. Apparently not. My mistake! I was hoping to use the BIOS device boot selection to choose whch disk ... You know the rest. I'm not hoping that there's some way I can correct this, have the mbr of sda boot from the /boot on /sda and the mbr on sdb boot from the /boot on sdb. I thought grub2 was supposed to scan for these things? Before diving in to YAST I thought I'd check here for guidance. -- Eschew Obfuscation! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] VirtualBox Guest Additions in oS 13.1
by Roger Oberholtzer 06 Feb '14

06 Feb '14

I am trying to add the VirtualBox Guest additions to openSUSE 13.1, running in VirtualBox on openSUSE 12.3. The additions were not automatically added during install of the oS 13.1 guest. I have added the packages that should be added, but I get the following error when I run VBoxLinuxAdditions.run from the VirtualBox 4.2.6 ISO image that VirtualBox downloads: ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid. include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/autoconfig are missing Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it. In fact, these files do exist. But I ran the make commands (in the guest machine, of course) without error, and the error persists. I ran the commands in /usr/src/linux-3-11-6-4-obj/i386/desktop, which is where the VB log said it was when it encountered the error. Maybe I would be better off just installing what is needed from OBS? If so, which packages would those be? -- Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer Ramböll RST / Systems Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer(a)ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
