[opensuse] no space left on the device
by jdd 06 May '15

06 May '15

Hello, I was hit this morning by the "no space left on the device" symptom, probably related to BTRFS (?), when btrfs's df (znd normal df) gives at least half space free. To work I had to reinstall on the other disk a 13.2 version (with ext4, this time). I know it's a discussed problem, and I read many posts on the subject, but It still don't get how to solve it. I *can* login with the failsafe mode, as root (or not), CLI only, but any action that include temp file fails with "no space left on the device", yast segfault... I cleared /tmp and some files in /home with no change. Is it possible to recover this? how? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Successor for former powersave package?
by Bjoern Voigt 01 May '15

01 May '15

In older openSUSE and SLES versions there was a package called "powersave": https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles10/book_sle_reference/data/sec_power… Especially the schema settings were useful, if an admin wanted to enable some powersaving features without detailed configuration. An example: /etc/sysconfig/powersave/common: AC_SCHEME="performance" BATTERY_SCHEME="powersave" Is there any good alternative for this package, especially for computers without a GUI? The package is gone. I already know the Powertop tool which does a good job, but it's interactive.

[opensuse] Invoking script after package update
by Stanislav Baiduzhyi 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Quick question: is there a way to trigger some script after any package update or install? Either after specific package, or just after any update and let script decide if it should do something or skip. Mostly interested in kernel updates, so zypper/yast trigger should be enough, no need to intercept rpm itself. -- Regards, Stas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] full filesystem probs
by Patrick Shanahan 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

Excuse me if this appears as a double post, but my isp has changed and my opensuse.org email has not been updated, so I have not been able to see posts here for about 12 hours. <quote> My Tumbleweed root filesystem, btrfs, keeps jumping to full or nearly so. I just cleaned /.snapshots/ of a considerable amount but each time I remove unnecessary files, the system quickly fills itself. What to do? It doesn't appear to be a problem with /tmp and/or /var/tmp or /var, but what do I know..... tks, </quote> I am presently preparing to reinstall the root filesystem and using xfs or ext4 instead of btrfs, which I suspect is part of the problem. tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Install problems
by A. den Oudsten 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

I tried to install 13.2 as well as Tumbleweed 201500418 on a E-Machine with a 80 Gib free partition. Their was an ethernet connection. Both installations went fluently until, after the restart, they blocked when the the big 'K' icon appeared. Who can give me the suggestion how to proceed?

[opensuse] WD Dual Drives
by Vojtěch Zeisek 28 Apr '15

Hi, does anyone have experience with WD Black2 Dual Drive (1 GB HDD + 120 GB SSD)? http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=1190 I'm thinking about buying it for notebook (well, I'm not sure, it is expensive), but the WD's web says it requires special software to access the HDD part, but it is available only for Mac and Windows, so might be there is no way to use it on Linux...?

[opensuse] web design question
by Istvan Gabor 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

Hello: This is kind of off-topic here but I don't know where to ask it to get an answer. More and more web sites have a design with gray/light-gray text on light background. One example is this site:https://www.siteground.com/support but there are plenty of similar ones. This design puts a lot of (unnecessary) stress on the eye. Is this design type simply the result of stupidity, or is there valid rationale supporting it? Thanks in advance, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
