[opensuse] What reads a pdf that contains forms?
by David C. Rankin 23 Aug '15

23 Aug '15

All, There are new forms the courts require that I am having trouble reading. The following is a Civil Docketing Statement for the 4th Court of Appeals in Texas. The site recommends Adobe Reader, which I don't have. I've tried my old trusty kpdf (nope), the readers in FF39 (nope). What else will read it? http://www.txcourts.gov/media/515780/cv_ds.pdf -- David C.

[opensuse] Thunderbird 38.1.0 don’t show Outlook email if "HTML original" is selected
by Marco Calistri 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

Hello, Suddenly (may be after some of the latest Mozilla updates) Thunderbird started to have a problem when opening email sent from Outlook clients. The email body is not complete I.E. just the sender signature and signature's pictures are being displayed, the message text itself part is not. To be able to see the email body text I have to select View->HTML as simple. I believe Thunderbird applies a strict RFC rule and for this reason is discarding/hiding the text(?) I verify with different clients or even web email that Outlook email are displayed correctly then it is a specific Thunderbird issue. I'm attaching the excerpts of two HTML email sources in order to see the differences among them. The first is the Outlook source which is not fully displayed in Thunderbird with View->HTML as Original, while the second is another HTML source which went correctly displayed. # 1 HTML not fully displayed: Accept-Language: pt-BR, en-US Content-Language: en-US X-MS-Has-Attach: yes X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: x-ms-exchange-transport-fromentityheader: Hosted x-originating-ip: [HIDDEN] Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="_009_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_" MIME-Version: 1.0 X-CFilter-Loop: Reflected Return-Path: HIDDEN --_009_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_ Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="_008_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_"; type="multipart/alternative" --_008_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_ Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="_000_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_" --_000_ccd995d399dc4543b7cdf858ca9a44b6SNEPEXM02Phidden_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 # 2 HTML fully displayed Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=001a1134de483afeb504fe42babe --001a1134de483afeb504fe42babe Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=001a1134de483afeb304fe42babd --001a1134de483afeb304fe42babd Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable If someone have faced the same issue and being able to resolve, please share with me the solution.

[opensuse] Autodisconnect of usb-disk-dock
by Koenraad Lelong 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

Hi, In a thread about two months ago a USB disk-docking station was mentioned (Aukey Super Speed USB3.0 Dual Bay ...). I bought it, but I don't know what's happening with it. I wanted to use it as my backup-station for my NAS. I was testing it, but it was not reliable. So I tested it on my Opensuse 13.2 laptop. There it also has "problems". What happens is that after a while of not using it, the connection is dropped. I can't access it any more. I have to remove power and power it on again before I can use it. I was wondering if this is expected behaviour, or is the dock malfunctioning ? Any suggestions to investigate this further ?

[opensuse] specific calendar program for linux
by Istvan Gabor 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

Hello: I'm looking for a calendar program for linux with a specific view area. it should look similar to the one in this image: http://i59.tinypic.com/3358g91.jpg Days should be in horizontal order only, and places, hours of days etc. vertically. Tasks or names could be assigned to specific places/hours during specific days. For example John Doe will be staying in New York from Aug. 18-22. Would be nice if I could export/save the data and open/import them on another machine. Is there something like this, open source or free, for linux? All calendars I looked at (screenshots) has days both horizontally and vertically.

[opensuse] btrfs - no space left on device after deleting snapper
by Istvan Gabor 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

Hello: I thought I didn't need snapshots and I deleted all snapper packages. After this I get the no space left on device message when booting the system. Before I deleted snapper packages I removed all snapshots and checked the amount of free space. # btrfs filesystem show Label: none uuid: ............ Total devices 1 FS bytes used 16.97GB devid 1 size 20.00GB used 20.00GB path /dev/sd..... If I understand correctly this indicates I have ~3 GB free space on the 20 GB file system. Then I deleted snapper packages and now I get the no space message. Why is my file system full? How can I fix this?

[opensuse] fetchmail from gmail problems
by Patrick Shanahan 02 Aug '15

02 Aug '15

I suppose google is playing name games or round-robin with ssl certs but am just guessing based on inexperience. I began three or four days ago receiving "Query status=2 (SOCKET)" errors in fetchmail log for gmail. If I specify an ip address to poll rather than imap.gmail.com, I get "SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed". Adding nodns to poll imap.gmail.com, or with an ip address makes no difference. I even tried following google'd info to update Equifax certs to no avail. Switching to pop3 rather than imap is not different, same errors with same conditions. I don't understand, fetchmail has worked very well for many years with gmail/imap. # Configuration created Sun Dec 28 14:56:16 2003 by fetchmailconf set logfile "/home/<user>/.procmail/fetchmail.log" #set syslog set postmaster "invalid" set no bouncemail set no spambounce set daemon 150 poll imap.gmail.com tracepolls with proto IMAP timeout 45 user '<user1>@gmail.com' there with password '<passwd1>' is '<user1>' here options fetchall stripcr ssl sslcertck mda '/usr/lib/sendmail -i -oem -f %F %T' antispam 571 550 501 554 user '<user2>@gmail.com' there with password '<passwd2>' is '<user2>' here options fetchall stripcr ssl sslcertck mda '/usr/lib/sendmail -i -oem -f %F %T' antispam 571 550 501 554 Five other providers continue to work as expected.

[opensuse] Is there a fstrim like tool that punches holes? Would it work with a NFS mount?
by Greg Freemyer 02 Aug '15

02 Aug '15

All, Due to an Admin screw up: (and yes I'm the admin). I have a large loopback mounted filesystem with about 100GB of unused space. I need to punch holes where the unused space is and free up some disk space. That is where fstrim calls ioctl(FITRIM) to free up space on a SSD I need something that calls fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) to free up space on an underlying filesystem If nothing already exists to do this I guess I could hack on fstrim and get it to do if for me. The next issue is my underlying filesystem is a NFS mount. Not sure if will handle fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE). Worst case I guess I can grow the NFS mount, but I rent that space monthly, so I'd rather not have to grow it by 100GB to fix my issue.

[opensuse] bind in OS 12.3
by P.Suetterlin＠royac.iac.es 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

Hi list, I'm running a server that is still on 12.3 (update scheduled for autumn). There has been a security alert concerning bind (CVE-2015-5477), and now I wonder if I need to do something. Acording to heise.de (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Kritische-Luecke-in-DNS-Server-Softw…, in german) affected versions are 9, 9.1.0, 9.9.7-P1 Und 9.10.2-P2 12.3 (like 13.1) has 9.9.4P2, so I thought I'm safe, but today arrived an update for this exact version for 11.4 Evergreen. Are there others still running bind on 12.3? What are you doing?

I've never used the high-end navigation modules, but both the low-end Garmins I used were terrible. I now use MapFactor Navigator Free on my Samsung tablet, and it works beautifully. I'd rather have Google, but I'd even more rather have the money needed for the data usage. Mapfactor uses OpenStreetMaps for free, and you can buy Tom-Tom maps. OSM has never failed me. Last I heard, Google will cache only the maps needed for your pre-planned trip. If you deviate even a little, you're in Google Wilderness. MapFactor solves that; I can explore all I want.
