[opensuse] XFS filesystem total failure on return from hibernation.
by Carlos E. R. 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

-----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] 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? Thanks, Robin

[opensuse] md5sum database
by Otto Rodusek 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

Hi ListMates, Some time ago (10-15 years ago?) there used to be a Linux application that made a complete database of an installed system (basically it stored all the "system" files with their original file sizes, ownership, access permissions and md5sums plus other info in the db) and had programs to periodically check this database against an installed system and report on any changes and optionally to restore them to their original states. I forgot the name of the package and can't seem to find it via google! Does anyone on this list remember this package and if so to let me know where to find it. Thanks for any help. Best regards. Otto. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] chmsee doesn't work
by John Perry 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

Hello, I'm trying to read a .chm file (specifically, javascript.chm). The original chmsee that was on the system failed, so I used yast2 to delete it and reinstall from the opensuse repository. It fails in exactly the same way. I tried from the command line and get the following: john@linux-mblx:/> chmsee & [1] 10523 john@linux-mblx:/> (process:10526): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed Error: Platform version '17.0.10' is not compatible with minVersion >= 22.0 maxVersion <= 23.* Is there a way to fix this? Is there a chmsee, or any program, that will read this file? Neither Okular nor LibreOffice Write will. The original chmsee was installed with the system, I'm pretty sure. I'm using opensuse 13.1, fully updated, in a Virtualbox machine under Windows 7. The chmsee file was built from a web site (MDN?) by a user. john perry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SeaMonkey: "Restore Previous Session" greyed out after crash
by Philip Amadeo Saeli 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

This is on openSUSE-13.1, SeaMonkey-2.26.1. SeaMonkey crashed with lots of windows/tabs open, and there are both sessionstore.json and sessionstore.bak files in the assoc profile data. However, when the browser is restarted and the "Restore Session" window comes up, the "Restore Previous Session" option is greyed out and list of Windows and Tabs is empty. The only usable button is "Start New Session". I had quite a bit of stored up state and was preparing to save and/or bookmark most of the saved up pages, most being tech references to things I've been researching recently. I tried renaming the sessionstore.bak file as sessionstore.json, but that gave the same result. I have no other useable sessionstore.json files for that session. As a sanity check, I did try using the sessionstore.json file from another PC and that session started up OK, so I know the problem is not due to a setting in the affected SeaMonkey instance. To help view the JSON, I used json_pp on the sessionstore.json files, and there is a very large blob in the middle of the file that starts with, "formdata":{"#sessionData":"{ which the json_pp does not pretty print, and everything in that blob appears to have extra quoting (lots of backslashes, etc.). Braces, brackets, quotes, etc., are all balanced in the file, i.e., I am not able to identify any corruption in the file. If I run seamonkey from the command line, I get no helpful error messages. Is there a way to force error msgs or debugging info to help debug this? How about how to extract the info directly from the JSON file? Any other ideas? [I'm tearing my hair out trying to fix this!] Any other forums to post to? (I'm not active on any Mozilla related forums presently, and I'm a mostly email list user vs web forum user). Web searches have not brought up much more than how to configure Session Restore, etc. I will post any progress I am able to make on this.

If one had installed other packages by other means then no way to test. The application I'm trying to remember took a "snapshot" of all the files (ie: in /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /etc/...etc) with all the details as per my above info and created a db with all this info. Then you ran a program that verified your current system against the "master" db and highlighted any changes and optionally to restore files to their original condition. There is a program (md5deep) that does some of what I want but is basically a manual process - I was hoping to find the original application and use it instead to save me a bunch of time writing scripts. Thanks for your reply tho and best regards. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
