[opensuse] lvm boot fails with timeout in multipath
by auxsvr 08 Nov '15

08 Nov '15

Boot with LVM root often fails on oS 13.2, and dracut starts the emergency shell. The messages beforehand are (copied with errors): timeout /sbin/multipath -i -u sda1 [slow multipath etc] dracut -initqueue PARTIAL MODE Incomplete logical volumes will be processed [another error message about a missing LVM partition] This issue looks similar to the one described in this[1] Ubuntu bug report. Has anyone else seen this? -------- [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1431650 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Weird dvd unit failure
by Carlos E. R. 08 Nov '15

08 Nov '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 i Hi, I have been having weird crashes while boot of my hibernated desktop machine. First symptom appears to be stuck bios on detecting devices. I hit reset, continue. Machine boots, restores hibernation, and when going to display graphics, suddenly crashes and reboots. Of course, a reboot on an hibernated machine is a kind of catastrophe: many files are open, and the mandatory fsck of ext4 partitions takes for ever. Happened 3 or 4 days. Tonight I noticed a strange message about a SATA interface going to 1.5 GB. Crash. I track that message: <0.6> 2015-11-08 03:47:31 Telcontar kernel - - - [ 2.070499] ata12: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x6880 ctl 0x6800 bmdma 0x6488 irq 19 <0.6> 2015-11-08 03:47:31 Telcontar kernel - - - [ 2.531039] ata12: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) <0.6> 2015-11-08 03:47:31 Telcontar kernel -

And I was not using the unit. It just had a forgotten disk I had read a week or two ago. So... now I have to get a new unit. It will not be an LG again, bad hardware. I have seen a Liteon or a Samsung for about 16€. Wow, these things are cheap now. Cheap as dirt, and reliable as dirt, I guess. Sigh. Is it worth it to get a unit capable of Blu Ray?

[opensuse] Thunderbird asks for passwords too many times.
by Carlos E. R. 07 Nov '15

07 Nov '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, I have several accounts defined in Thunderbird. It keeps the passwords for all of them, protected with a master password. When I start Thunderbird, the sequence goes like this (from recent memory): a) it pops up several message boxes, asking for the password of each mail account. Instead of waiting for the master password before starting connecting to the accounts. Often, once the master password is entered, the sessions with the ISP have timed out, and the connections fail; then Thunderbird asks if it should retry. Another bunch of dialogs to close. This has been hapening for years. b) it asks for the master password - but in several message boxes. It is expected to prompt for that password - but once! Since a few months back, it asks several times. Before it asked just once. So my procedure is to enter the master password, once, then close all other password requests, for the accounts and the master. It is a nuisance. But the master password prompt does not respond to the ESC key. I have to click on cancel, or tab-enter. Two keys. And this happens on two computers at least, so I doupbt it is misconfiguration on my part, but... who knows :-? MozillaThunderbird-38.3.0-70.65.1.x86_64 (updated minutes ago). - -- Cheers Carlos E.

[opensuse] How to upgrade kernel version
by don fisher 07 Nov '15

07 Nov '15

I have noticed on the lists mention of kernels at least as high as 4.2.0. I have been performing upgrades and my kernel is at 3.16.7-29. I have an odd graphics processor on a Nvidia laptop and it was suggested back in April on the Nouveau-Nvidia list that I should try version 4 of the kernel. I have been waiting but it has not arrived. Is there a reason open-SUSE is still using version 3 series kernels, or reason I should not upgrade? And is there document describing the procedure to obtain a newer kernel. Thanks, don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] questoins about ibus (for people with long experience with asiatic input - here Chinese intelligent pyinyin)
by stakanov＠freenet.de 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

Hello Some question for who might be very practical with intelligen pinyin, m17n and intelligent m17n a) Is there a way or a code or shortcut to indicate the intelligent pinyin to give me at once the available roots instead of all the other possibilities? e.g. 彳chì as root nr 60 comes way late (in my case 3 full lists of simbols with intelligent pinyin. Any possibility to limit this to roots? b) Since the reinstall of my system (13.2 kde) the "Chinese hanyu pinyin (m17n) " comes without icon. Before it had one. Should I file that as bug or is it known? c) Sometimes in Libreoffice, while I am typing with intelligent pinyin ibus "hangs". When I restart the ibus app by the menue point "restart", this will have no function in Libreoffice, you will continue to type in latin alphabet. The workaround I found is, save your work, exit of libreoffice, restart ibus, restart libreoffice, open you file again. Any suggestion to make this less complicated when it happens? I would be greatful. d) Tumbleweed: when installing m17n in it's "intelligent" version, it "outsmarts" itself I would say, when writing the piyin of "de" 的，it writes "d space e" and there is no way to avoid it, it seams. All the rest is flawless. Is there a setting to influence this, a bug or is this a feature for typing pinyin in other languages then mandarin?. As this is a very common occurrence (let be that there are 3 "de" therefore typing a text in pinyin you have the problem nearly every second sentence) it makes for me that variant little usable. But maybe I am doing something wrong? Behavior was: pinyin when without accent simply to write the latinization as such. Does intelligent pinyin requires a different typing in these cases to avoid spacing? Thank you. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.
