by Chuck Payne 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

Hi, I am trying to set up a simple repo, I read on the opensuse site about a binary called genIS_PLAINcache, because I can't see to find it or the package yast2-packmanager either. Can someone help. I am setting this repo up for SLE9, I have tried to use createrepo but I keeping getting errors. -- ---------------------------------------- When a place gets crowded enough to require ID's, social collapse is not far away.

[opensuse] migration from openSUSE 12.3 to 13.2 - from ifup to wicked
by Paul Neuwirth 03 Mar '15

03 Mar '15

Hi, I struggled long to migrate fully from initd to systemd. Now before I do the step from 12.3 to 13.2, i have concerns of ifup being replaced. Not much answers found googling around. A. can ifup be used instead of wicked B. is migration easy? following setup (IPv4 only): 2 physical network cards (RTL8111/8168) eth0: LAN (DHCPd running on the machine) eth1: (static ip) as connection to VDSL2 modem dsl0: PPPoE dial-up device lo tun0: openvpn server running tun1: vpnc connection (manually created on demand using vpnc) isdn0: backup ISDN dial-in connection (started manually) modem0: backup UMTS dial-in connection (started manually) C. firewall configuration I adjusted SuSEfirewall2 configuration a lot (routing,masquerading,forwarding,...) and added custom scripts for traffic shaping using tc and iptables. have i take care of anything regarding this? Thank's a lot in advance for any info/hints. It is very hard to find information about, especially point C.

[opensuse] ownCloud password
by Paul Groves 19 Feb '15

19 Feb '15

I have logged into my computer today to find that owncloud is asking for a password every time it opens! I have checked the kde wallet and the password in there is correct. I have tried re-adding the kde wallet password. I have tried removing and re-installing oencloud I have tried using snapper to roll back to yesterday (when it worked fine) I am using owncloud 1.7.1 and opensuse 13.2 64-bit Everything is fine on my work computer and my laptop using the same versions. I am assuming that something is wrong in the owncloud settings for my user. When I re-installed owncloud it remembered all the settings. I want to try and do a complete clean install but there is no .owncloud folder in my home directory. Does anyone know how I can completely remove owncloud-client and all of it's settings from my system and home folder so that I am able to perform a completely clean install? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Unlike Farrugut's order at the Battle of Mobile Bay, going full-speed ahead is not going to achieve any useful objectives, yet the dangers of systemd are still there. For one, systemd is making APPLICATIONS now dependant on the systemd API, which means when even the biggest fanboys here, at Redhat, and other distributions finally are forced to admit that systemd is a crock of shit.... we won't be able to remove it.... in other words, unlike Farragut, the probability of eventually being blown out of the water by a systemd torpedo is 100%. SysV init has problems, but without a doubt, it does NOT present itself as being a massive security hole, nor present the risk of making a system unbootable. > > Cheers, Mark > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] slightly OT - do Androids support ipv6 ?
by Per Jessen 06 Feb '15

see $SUBJ. I'm playing with a Samsung Galaxy and I'm trying to make it work over ipv6, but I don't seem to be getting very far. It just keeps asking for an ipv4 address. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] No sound in Minecraft
by Mike 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

I've asked on the minecraft forums without a response so I'm trying here in case that it might be a SuSE configuration issue. I do not have sound in the game. This has been a problem for several versions nowCurently running 1.7.5. I've also tried the last 2 snapshots. I can play music fine and was able to play the sound files in .mineraft/assets/objects/* via Amarok. I have deleted the assets folder and had re-downloaded everything. I looked in the bug list and I found a few sound related issues, but they suggested that there was some sounds. The log only mentions minecraft:mob.witch.idle, but there are no sounds at all in game, but in options everything is set to 100%. I tried to force an older version in profile editor but still no sound going back to 1.4.2. I see a java Playback Stream in the mixer and volume is 100% there too. Any ideas?

[opensuse] Not able to find any OpenOffice package for the SUSE 13.1
by Arup Rakshit 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

Hi, I'm using openSUSE 13.1, on my 32 bit machine. I need to work with OpenOffice document. But I'm not getting any software for my version of SUSE. I checked here - https://en.opensuse.org/OpenOffice.org. Nothing I found for 13.1. I got one link - http://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/linux/opensuse/how-to-install-openoffice-org… , but it is for 12.1. Is there any repository through which I can get it in 13.1 ? I tried to search through zypper also, but didn't get it as I don't have the repo added for the OpenOffice software. -- ================ Regards, Arup Rakshit ================ Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

[opensuse] NFS Offline Access
by Paul Groves 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

I have a read only NFS share on my LAN with all my movies, music and photos etc for sharing to my local devices. Is there any way I can make specific sub-directories of this available off-line (i.e. sync to the hard disk)? What I would like to achieve is that the directory /nfs/media/music will be accessible on my laptop when I take it out of the house. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
