[opensuse] Descent 3 on OpenSUSE 13.2 x64?
by Philip Vossler 03 Jul '15

03 Jul '15

Yesterday I found the descent 3 (linux version) install disk languishing among my music collection and i have managed to install and patch the game to v1.4b. When I attempt to execute /usr/local/bin/descent3 I receive the error "Descent 3 Message(Error: Illegal font file: lohud.fnt. ) System Error" I have searched the web for solutions but the only suggested resolution is a reinstall and that was for the Microsoft Windows version - never the less I did try reinstalling and tried running the game with no patches applied but received the same error message Has anyone on this list run the game on OpenSUSE 13.2 (or a recent linux distro), and has anyone ever come across a font file with the name "lohud.fnt"? I thought it might be fun to play the game over the weekend but it looks as though I could spend the time trying to fix this issue rather than playing the game...I'd appreciate any advice as I'm stumped for a solution. regards Phil Vossler "......sooner or later that day comes and you can't hide from the things that you've done anymore."

[opensuse] Inkscape not exporting gradients with transparency
by Paul Groves 03 Jul '15

03 Jul '15

I have discovered that Inkscape is not exporting to pdf or eps or printing any object with a gradient fill and a transparency. These objects come out as white. Any idea how to fix this?

But you can just try dracut -f and see if you get any error. Obviously this assumes the system is rw mounted. If not you'll have to do some of this manually, or boot a rescue cd, and in that case it takes the long form: cd /boot dracut <blahkernel>.img <blahkernel> where it's the kernel name minus the vmlinuz part, something like 4.0.1-2.fc22.x86_64 -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Linode Kernel choice
by Jeremy Baker 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

Anyone on the list running opensuse 13.2 on linode? I am curious about which suse supplied kernel version would best suit that environment. Right now I am running a linode supplied kernel, but it is missing some modules I need. -- Jeremy Baker <jab(a)mbcs.ca> GnuPGP fingerprint = EE66 AC49 E008 E09A 7A2A 0195 50EF 580B EDBB 95B6 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] systemd segfault
by auxsvr＠gmail.com 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

After the latest glibc update, systemd crashed as I was restarting dbus, systemd-logind etc. The only way to resume normal operation was to restart the system. Has anyone else seen this? -- Regards, Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Reminder Leap Second 2015 Today - older openSuSE systems
by David C. Rankin 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

All, Just a reminder that older 11/12 system may not handle the leapsecond today gracefully. If using ntp, placing ntp in 'slew mode' will allow for graceful handling of the second. The attached script, if run before 7/1 will place ntp in slew mode, and if run after 7/1 will restore the original configuration. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
