[opensuse] root partition not being mounted rw
by John Young 06 Oct '15

06 Oct '15

We have a number of new HP workstations on which I have done a new installation of openSUSE 13.2. The installations all seemed to have gone normally and the systems all ran fine for a day or so. But then the root partition was remounted read-only on several of them. Normally, one expects this if one is having disk errors, but I booted from an installation disk and ran fsck and the partition came back as clean. I rebooted the box and the root partition was again mounted read-only (or at least NOT remounted read-write). If I boot in recovery mode, I can manually remount the root partition read-write and manually bring up the network and everything seems to run normally. But if I do a clean shutdown and reboot, the root partition is again not mounted read-write. In the short run, I have a really ugly work-around of putting the commands to remount the root partition read-write and ifup the network in /etc/init.d/after.local, but I really don't like that and I don't understand why the root partition is not being properly mounted even though there do not seem to be any disk errors. Has anyone seen this? Any ideas where to look? -- JY ------------------------------------------------------------ John E. Young NASA LaRC B1148/R226 Analytical Services and Materials, Inc.

[opensuse] Kobil midentity XXL

[opensuse] Useful book for neophytes
by Anton Aylward 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

'Self-Service Linux' in the Bruce Perens series. Authors: Mark Wilding and Dan Behman PRENTICE HALL Professional Technical Reference ISBN 0-13-147751-X It's freely downloadable from http://itknowledgecloud.tradepub.com You will need an account there, but its also a trove of other interesting publications on a wide variety of technical matters. Why is this useful? Its about problems solving in the Linux world. its not going to be a great use to people who have been using Linux, coding for Linux solely using Linux for a decade or more, but for people coming to Linux from Windows it will help them over a conceptual hurdle, introduce a lot of the very basic assumptions that "old timers" take for granted and often don't realise they are assuming. While some technical aspects of the book are out of date -- it was published in 2006 -- the first chapter on problem determination is a classic and well worth reading. If you work though the examples you may find that a few of the details are out of date, but the basic principles of using things like 'strace',, of keeping logs, and more are still applicable.

[opensuse] adobe flash player crashes in browser
by Istvan Gabor 04 Oct '15

04 Oct '15

Hello: I've been using adobe flash player in firefox browser to listen to live radio stream and it practically never crashed. Recently I've changed my mobo and processor with built in intel graphics. Previously I had standalone nvidia graphics card and used nvidia proprietary driver with nomodeset option in grub. With the new hardware I use (I guess) nouveau driver and I removed nomodeset option from grub. I haven't changed the operating system or browser of flash player. Now flash player crashes about ~30-40 minutes. I don't know if this is related to new graphics, only coincidence, or caused by something else. How can I check and fix it? The system is openSUSE 12.2 (I know it's old) with KDE3.5 and firefox esr24, and flash plugin 11.2.202.442.

[opensuse] Why is Leap x86_64 only?
by David C. Rankin 04 Oct '15

04 Oct '15

All, Why is Leap x86_64 only? What is the technical reason openSuSE cannot build i586 packages as well. I would expect to see the "We don't want you anymore" kiss-off to i586 from the bleeding edge distros well before openSuSE. Arch (the bleeding edge) still packages i686 on the 4.2 kernel, so it isn't a "can't be done issue". Why now? -- David C.

[opensuse] Leap 42.1 Beta, quick report
by Stanislav Baiduzhyi 02 Oct '15

02 Oct '15

So, I've installed Leap 42.1 Beta 2 days ago. Here is a quick report of what I've found so far: 1. Network ISO. Asks how do I want to connect (wifi, wpa2-psk), then asks which mirror to use, than again asks how to connect and loops in those 2 questions without ever exiting. Was not able to go any farther, so had to download full iso. 2. ISO installation went very well, even much better than 13.2 because it had nasty issue of scanning my built-in ssd (zenbook ux32vd) for 40 minutes, Leap scanned it relatively fast. Only couple of minor issues with package selection with "minimal X" variant: a) it wants to install GTK 3 without a single GTK3 app? b) looks like yast-ncurses is the only yast ui present. c) no pattern for LXQt, while it is relatively stable at this point, maybe even version 0.10 will come in time for the release. Hopefully it will not be hard to get up-to-date and stabilized version later, so not a big issue. d) with minimal X variant, would be nice to have some lightweight web browser as well. 3. New IceWM theme is great! Thanx! 4. Plymouth screen misses the chameleon... 5. Though I haven't checked which exact font is that, default plasma 5 font is quite awkward, looks like some kind of mix of serif and sans-serif family. I've seen a proposal of changing the default font to Google Noto, looks like it was not applied yet? 6. And the biggest hit so far is missing packman repos, so I will not install Leap on other machines until packman will catch up. So far release is great! Haven't expected it to be so stable and so polished already, waiting with anticipation for final release! Thanx everyone who put their effort in making this release work! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Konsole crash when exiting from ssh session since updates earlier this week

I was just curious if anyone else has been having issues with Konsole crashing when you exit from an SSH session? I haven't had any problems before this week, but it's been pretty frequent since installing the latest oS 13.1 patches a few days ago.
