Thank you for your attempt to help. I've filed a bug report upstream with the Status-4-Evar extension maintainer. Of all extensions I can live without -- this one isn't one of those...

[opensuse] Strange messages in log, when cron jobs run, about "Failed to open private bus connection"
by Carlos E. R. 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, Since recently, I think, I get these messages on the warn log when a cron job runs, on two computers at least: <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:34:01 minas-tirith systemd 4025 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:38:01 minas-tirith systemd 4096 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:44:01 minas-tirith systemd 4195 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:45:01 minas-tirith systemd 4229 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/0/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:48:01 minas-tirith systemd 4508 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:54:01 minas-tirith systemd 4627 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 02:58:01 minas-tirith systemd 4873 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/9/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory <3.4> 2015-03-31 03:00:01 minas-tirith systemd 4955 - - Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/0/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory User 0 is root, and 9 is news. Those directories do not exist, obviously. Should they? (they are not logged-in). And those messages are spamming the warning log. Anything that goes to the warning log is supposedly VERY important. It the message is trivial, it is a bug to create them on warning level, IMO. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] 13.1 Bash HISTCONTROL=erasedups -- not working? confirm?
by David C. Rankin 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

All, A value of HISTCONTROL=erasedups causes all previous lines matching the current line to be removed from the history list before that line is saved. (man bash) This isn't working on 13.1 for me. Can anyone else confirm that duplicates are NOT removed in 13.1 when this value is set? Searching, it looks like other distros have patched bash to insure this works when multiple terminals are open. (e.g.: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/189881) If this is confirmed, could something similar be done here? The reason, after moving my history file from 11.4 to 13.1 and running for close to a year, I have close to 14,000 duplicate lines -- despite having 'erasedups' set: current lines: 20000 - uniq lines: 6099 = 13901 duplicates To fix the problem temporarily, I wrote the current file out, then sorted uniquely, then deleted the current history, read the sorted unique file in as current, and wrote the current back to HISTFILE: $ history -w | sort | uniq > uniqfile $ history -c $ history -r uniqfile $ history -w $ rm uniqfile That seems to have fixed the issue in the current session, and ~/.bash_history is current correct, but when closing the remaining sessions, I suspect the duplicates will once again be written to ~/.bash_history, even though 'erasedups' is set. If someone can confirm 13.1 is ignoring 'erasedups', I'll file the bug. -- David C.

[opensuse] disappearing email
by ianseeks 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

hi all I was just reading Per's email about the lack of dolphin refresh ( i got about half way through) and it vanished from sight and from the list. It wasn't in the waste bin. I closed kmail and gave it a minute before restarting and it didn't reappear but the thread of 2 replies that was attached to Per's email was the last to reappear on restart. This thread is in the middle of todays emails so it wasn't at the top of the list, strange refresh process for it to appear after the latest emails in the list. I'll check again tomorrow to see if it reappears Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Tumbleweed: Restart doesn't work correctly.
by Roger Luedecke 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

Whern I select 'Restart' within GNOME 3.16 under Tumbleweed, the computer fails to restart. Instead the monitor shuts off (LED) and the fans in the PC spin down. It does not restart, nor does it shut down. This forces me to hold down the power button to restart. Has anybody else encountered this problem? Where do I even start looking to figure this one out? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] private wifi AP
by jdd 06 Apr '15

06 Apr '15

Hello, I'm preparing a workshop for OSC-15 Not knowing what will be the networks up there, I want to setup my own private access point to share files with participants. For test purpose, I simply use a wifi device on my main desktop, always connected with ethernet cable. The final will be done on my laptop with a spare usb wifi device. I created an "osc15-jdd" user with simple password for sharing. To make things simple, I try to simply use the network manager. right now the config is dawn simple: open the network applet, choose the tools icon, add a connection.. then I have options I'm not sure to understand. I have in the menu (among others): wifi, shared wifi, then virtual and vpn. as first try, I used "shared wifi". What I get is a public AP natting users to the net without any other config. From a client (just now my laptop) I can access the net (I just did an update on the laptop with this connexion), but not connect to the main. I can ping the main computer (local address 10.42.0.1), but not ssh on it. remember I didn't yet restart anything (not even sshd). This result is not the one I seek for. I don't care about internet and only want clients to be able to connect to the user osc15-jdd on my computer, with ssh or dolphin/fish is ideal. what is the simpler way to do this? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] FF 36 -- uugh! How to turn off search pop-up?
by David C. Rankin 05 Apr '15

05 Apr '15

All, Updates to 13.1 brought in FF36 which has the annoying habit of popping up a dialog for search engine selection every time I type something in the search dialog -- grr. I've already set preferences -> search to my default StartPage search and I DO NOT want to have that annoying dialog pop-up every time I type. It often covers up the very text I am reading/copying into my query. Has anyone found an about:config switch, or userChrome.css/userContent.css way to kill it? p.s. - Will someone please take UI development away from the children who liked playing with Crayons and fingerpaints... What's next? Dancing icons on mouseover toolbar? -- David C.

[opensuse] Switching to Windows
by A. den Oudsten 04 Apr '15

04 Apr '15

From time to time I switch to Windows (7), as I do the last two decennia. To my Big Surprise it is no longer possible. When I restart I get only opensuse choices. At the moment I use Tumbleweed 20150330. How can I return to the previous choices?
