[opensuse] Just upgraded Firefox 36.0 on 13.2 and Search Engines
by Basil Chupin 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

OK, who stuffed up the Search Engines facility in FF 36.0? In previous versions one could select a Search Engine from a drop-down menu but now this option is gone. Anybody know of a quick fix for this new "improvement" in FF 36.0, please?

I can go to the same site with Firefox and Seamonkey, both with Adblock Plus installed. Firefox shows ads, Seamonkey doesn't. Others have also experienced this. Regardless. I was finally able to get Plus removed and Edge enabled. I'll have to see how well Edge works. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] sistemad - invalid argument when trying to override ExecStart with drop-in config?
by Per Jessen 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

In /etc/systemd/system, I have created a directory: radvd.service.d/ which contains "useold.conf" : [Service] ExecStart=/usr/sbin/radvd.old --nodaemon $RADVD_OPTIONS (I want to use an old binary, see bug#920156). After having reloaded systemd, I try to start radvd: # systemctl start radvd Failed to start radvd.service: Unit radvd.service failed to load: Invalid argument. See system logs and 'systemctl status radvd.service' for details. Unfortunately, the log and the journal and 'systemctl status' all give absolutely no indications about the invalid argument? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Yast, multiple NICs, and default routes
by Esztermann, Ansgar 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Hello List, as far as I can tell, Yast does provide an option to edit DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE for individual NICs. This means that when multiple NICs are set up for DHCP, the actual default route is subject to a race condition -- surely not a desirable state. Is this true, or did I miss something? Should I file a bug? Thanks, A. -- Ansgar Esztermann DV-Systemadministration Max-Planck-Institut für biophysikalische Chemie, Abteilung 105

[opensuse] FF 35 woes on 13.1 (prior search results NOT available when 'back' used)
by David C. Rankin 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

All, This is frustrating. I use startpage. In all prior versions of Firefox, I could preform a search, follow a link, then press <back> to return to my search results. No I get this damn: Document Expired This document is no longer available. The requested document is not available in Firefox's cache. As a security precaution, Firefox does not automatically re-request sensitive documents. Click Try Again to re-request the document from the website. [ Try Again ] Jesus this is a pain. How can I tell FF 35 to please behave like all prior versions of FF and just show my search results again when I press back?? I don't want to have to click multiple buttons and confirm resends just to see them again. What in about:config controls this behavior? I've searched settings, and once again with Mozilla, this new 'feature' appears to be more of a 'bug' for some -- because, again, there is no way to TURN IT OFF. What says the braintrust? What's the trick to get usable search results back? -- David C.

[opensuse] Dual booting with 13.2 upgrade?
by Thomas Taylor 01 Mar '15

01 Mar '15

I performed an fresh install of OS 13.2 but ran into a problem when trying to get a dual boot system. The 13.2 install apparently requires a GPT partition scheme so I used PartedMagic to create that. When I tried to install Windows 7 it balked at the GPT partition as it seems not able to use that scheme, requiring a DOS type partition table. What suggestions are there for allowing this dual-boot between OS 13.2 and Windows 7?
