[opensuse] Thunderbird quirk - something new or something I never noticed in the past?
by Basil Chupin 06 Jun '15

06 Jun '15

Using TB 31.6.0. When one responds to an e-mail message and sends it without at any time saving it to the DRAFT folder then, on the main page of TB, a little arrow appears at the beginning of the Subject header of the message being replied to; this indicates that one has replied to that message. However, if one first saves the response which one is writing to the DRAFT folder and then completes the message at a later time and sends it then no 'little arrow' appears at the beginning of the Subject header. This lack of the "little arrow" a new development or something which has "always been' and I have never noticed it?

[opensuse] Spell Check not working in TexWorks
by Mike Coan 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

Greetings, I have been using TexWorks and the TexLive collectoion on opensuse for a number of years. Spellcheck was always available in TexWorks. At work I use opensuse 13.2 and at home I use Tumbleweed. The version of TexWorks is 0.4.6 in both cases. opensuse 13.2 uses Texlive2013, Tumbleweed uses Texlive2014. In opensue 13.1 I could enable spellchecking in Texworks by going to Edit --> Preferences --> General --> Spell-check language and specify en-US. that option is not available. Looking at the manual for TeXworks it specifically says how to implement spell checking Got to Help --> Seetings and Resources --> Resources and note the Resources directory. In my case it is /home/mikecoan/.TeXworks Create a subdirectoy called dictionaries and copy the dictionary files from /usr/share/myspell to the new subdirectory. I ahve done that and still no change. I have installed TeXworks and Texlive from the standard oss repositories in both cases. No special repositories. If anyone has spell check working in TeXworks I would appreciate knowing what you did. Note that I have TeXworks configured to use use Plain TeX and pdftex, but that shouldn't make a difference. Mike -- Michael A.

[opensuse] raid use case
by jdd 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

Hello, I never used RAID, or nearly (I used hardware raid on a big server, but it was completely software transparent). I just made an exact copy of the 1Tb of my main computer. In this disk I have a ~500 Gb partition for my day to day data. is is possible to make the two partitions (one per disk) member of a raid 1 (mirror) system without fuss? I mean that I want to be able to access any partition alone if one of the drive fails (without changing the failing disk) and to revert to standard system if necessary. (I can also make an hourly rsync crom job if raid is overkill) thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] postfix - server rejecting e-mails from some of my kids devices, fine otherwise
by David C. Rankin 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

All, I am usually fairly good a diagnosing postfix problems, but this one has me stumped. For some reason, sending mail from Apple products is now not working. I'm not sure what has happened, as all were working sometime in the past when I configured them for the network, but now, they are not. I don't know if this is an IOS change or what. I haven't changed my postfix config in the interim. All of the devices are on the same subnet. The errors I get are: Jun 4 15:39:39 nirvana postfix/smtpd[18893]: connect from Sydneys-iPad.3111skyline.com[192.168.6.147] Jun 4 15:39:39 nirvana postfix/smtpd[18893]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from Sydneys-iPad.3111skyline.com[192.168.6.147]: 554 5.7.1 <Sydneys-iPad.3111skyline.com[192.168.6.147]>: Client host rejected: Access denied; from=<kids_email> to=<my_remote_email> proto=ESMTP helo=<[192.168.6.147]> Jun 4 15:39:39 nirvana postfix/smtpd[18893]: disconnect from Sydneys-iPad.3111skyline.com[192.168.6.147] my subnet is 192.168.6.0/24 My postfix config is: mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain, drrankin.com myhostname = nirvana.3111skyline.com mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 192.168.6.0/24 [::1]/128 [fe80::%eth0]/64 66.76.63.60 mynetworks_style = subnet myorigin = $mydomain smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unknown_client smtpd_helo_required = yes smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_client_access hash:/etc/postfix/client_access, reject_unauth_destination (client access includes 3111skyline.com) broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $mydomain smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_sasl_tls_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem I have tried the normal commenting out of smtpd_client_restrictions, smtpd_recipient_restrictions, smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes (with postfix restart in between) and it makes no difference. It is almost like there is a gremlin that prevents 'Sydneys-iPad' from sending mail. Has anyone else run into this with certain Apple devices lately? If not any suggestions? -- David C.

[opensuse] printer recommendation
by buhorojo 04 Jun '15

04 Jun '15

13.2 Hi We currently have a HP printer which only works when the computer it is connected to is on. Is there a wifi printer we could use instead for laptops and phones? Whilst I can find information about the 'phone, no one has any information as to whether it will work from an opensuse laptop. Any recommendations based on experience using this setup?

[opensuse] CPU speed
by Roger Oberholtzer 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

I have a system (not a laptop) that has an "AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1100T Processor", as reported in /proc/cpuinfo. I have been monitoring the CPU speed as reported there and I see that quite often the speed is reported as 800 MHz instead of 3300 MHz. For example, I ran the four commands pretty much one after the other. The speed is changing all the time: roger@acme:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu MHz" cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 roger@acme:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu MHz" cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 roger@acme:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu MHz" cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 roger@acme:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu MHz" cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 2500.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 800.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 cpu MHz : 3300.000 The system is busy when this is run. So I cannot think there are unused CPUs that are made to slow down because they have nothing to do. Especially changing as often as they seem to be changing.
