[opensuse] OpenSuse 12.3 and Canon i-SENSYS MF4150: page inverse
by Jan Schuster 09 Mar '14

09 Mar '14

Hi, I use openSuse 12.3 (64-Bit, Kernel 3.7.6, KDE 4.11, CUPS 1.5.4). For printing I use a Canon i-SENSYS MF4150. As standard there is no driver for the Canon i-SENSYS MF4150 in openSuse. You can download the driver as rpm, deb and in source code from the Canon support. I chose the driver cndrvcups 2.10 (cndrvcups-common 2.10 and cndrvcups-ufr2-uk 2.10) and cndrvcups 2.70 (cndrvcups-common 2.70 and cndrvcups-ufr2-uk 2.70) as rpm. Installation was successful. Printing directly from Libre Office is mostly working fine. Printing other causes problems. Nearly 8 of 10 files are printed inverse, i.e. white types on black pages. Print preview is correct: black types on white page. Printing the same pdf-files or Websites on other printers using Windows works fine, i.e. black types on white pages. I spent hours testing various configurations, searching in the www and compiling the source code. I did not find a configuration which doesn't inverse the colours. I also did not find other useful information on the www. When compiling the source code I fail to resolve dependencies and eliminate compiler errors. Canon Support and German OpenSuse Mailinglist cant help me. Please, can you help me?

[opensuse] uefi boot on asus 1225B with only openSUSE
by jdd 09 Mar '14

09 Mar '14

Hello, some friend of me asked me to install ubuntu on his asus 1225b computer, wipping all trace of windows. So I inserted the unbuntu 13.04 disk, installed without problem... and couldn't boot it, error "no system found". This is uefi bios, gpt disk. So I inserted the openSUSE 13.1 dvd... and... same punishment!! I tried all what passed in my mind: verifying /boot/EFI partition was mounted (it was), trying to set a boot flag (not available in efi/gpt system), even trying to add manually efi system files ("Windows Boot Manager.efi" or "Shellx64.efi" as the bios seemed to ask for.. nope. Even tried ELILO without more success. I now try to install with standard MBR and grub2 (non efi), and hope to succeed. but I would really like to install with efi/gpt system, let only for the record :-)) any idea? thanks jdd (I wonder if an double boot system would have worked, any people testing thies on this pretty common computer?) -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Something wrong with the opensuse repos?
by Basil Chupin 09 Mar '14

09 Mar '14

All day I am getting a download speed of around the dial-up speed (54KB/s) and as low as 0B/s and not my normal speed of >450KB/s. Is there something wrong with the oS server or do I go chasing my ISP for answers? Download speed for my connections with other sites (in Australia and UK) are pretty much normal.

[opensuse] YaST/zypper repo problem
by C 08 Mar '14

08 Mar '14

This problem was caused by stupid user error - meaning I copied the wrong URL when configuring a new repo and munged things really good. I pasted in a URL that was to a normal website instead of the URL to the LibreOffice Factory repo. I didn't notice until after I had applied and YaST tried to update from that repo. I edited it, removed the wrong repo and added right repo. Everything seemed OK... I can install from that reconfigured LibreOffice Factory repo just fine etc, but somewhere in the system, it's hanging on to the wrong repo info and I can't find it to fix it. This is the output from zypper (the error prevents me from installing/removing rpms): --------------- zypper in anyname.rpm Repository named '_tmpRPMcache_' already exists. Please use another alias. Refreshing service 'LibreOffice Factory'. Unexpected exception. Parse error: repoindex.xml[8] Couldn't find end of Start Tag meta History: - repoindex.xml[8] attributes construct error - repoindex.xml[8] Unescaped '<' not allowed in attributes values Please file a bug report about this. See http://en.opensuse.org/Zypper/Troubleshooting for instructions. --------------- The error makes sense since it's trying to parse a normal website for YaST repo info... and it finds regular HTML instead. YaST gives a little more info: --------------- An error occurred during repository initialization. Error refreshing service LibreOffice Factory (http://the.mistyped.url/that/isnt/a/repo/): Parse error: repoindex.xml[8] Couldn't find end of Start Tag meta History: - repoindex.xml[8] attributes construct error - repoindex.xml[8] Unescaped '<' not allowed in attributes values --------------- zypper repos -d shows all my configured repos including the LibreOffice Factory repo that is the source of the problem: --------------- 4 | LibreOffice_Factory | LibreOffice Factory | No | No | 80 | rpm-md | http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Factory/openSUSE_13.… --------------- If I look into /etc/zypp/repos.d/LibreOffice_Factory.repo, everything is correct, and there's no sign of the misconfigured repo anywhere. I've checked all other dot repo files and they are all fin as far as I can see. There is no double file for LibreOffice.. and no other repo that looks like LibreOffice in my repo list. (I'd susepaste.org it, but... when I do that it returns an error "You are spammer!!!" so... ) So... anyone have any ideas how I can convince zypper/YaST to forget about that wrong URL?... so I can use zypper again...

[opensuse] Blank Screen
by Paul Groves 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

I have a lenovo thinkpad x201 tablet and when I shut down, about 50% of the time i turn the laptop back on, bios shows, grub shows and then boots to opensuse but my screen is blank. The backlight is on as i can control the brightness but there is no image in the screen. I can log in by typing my password and I hear the KDE login sound but still no display, When it does decide to show it will work fine if I sleep hibernate or reboot but if I shut down it will have a blank screen again on most boots. I took out the battery for 24 hours, reset the BIOS and formatted the hard disk. I reinstalled with a clean copy of 13.1 but this makes no difference. -- Paul Groves -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
