[opensuse] mouse gets powered down when on battery
by Stanislav Baiduzhyi 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

I'm on openSUSE 13.2, the issue is the same for both plasma5 and kde4. I furiously hate touchpads, so taking mouse everywhere and configured plasma5 to disable touchpad when mouse is present. However, when I'm on battery the mouse gets disabled after 2-3 seconds of inactivity. To enable it again I have to click with either button, but it does not respond to move or wheel. I remember couple of years ago I've already had that issue and had to change something in udev rules to leave mouse work even on battery. But maybe that should be the default behaviour? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] Another example of deliberate system? supporters deliberately sabotaging previously working software...

> http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2015-08/msg00043.html 7.4kb OK I see. Well if we compare it to my emails, this one is short and not a tirade. I'm skeptical this word gets used just as often in the same situation with men, so my position is that it's best set aside. Linda used the word rant elsewhere so I think it's fine to say that. Anyway, the clear part is frustration has boiled over. That's good motivation. But what I'm missing is the connection to systemd. It's not necessary but if someone wants to school the clueless guy: Did /etc/sysconfig/sendmail have user comments that were stepped on when the file was replaced with an update? Or were these comments in the original and just removed in the updated? rpmnew and rpmsave predate the systemd stuff so I don't see the relevance, but then I'm also not seeing what was removed. I'd say any user facing configuration file should use either rpmnew or rpmsave method, rather than flat out obliterating the user config. -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[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.
