[opensuse] pulseaudio recording volume
by Istvan Gabor 13 Sep '15

13 Sep '15

Hello: I would like to record sound from a stream. I use pulseaudio's pacat with pavucontrol. When I change to recording tab in pavucontrol it shows the volume meter and the source I record from: pacat: pacat from Monitor of Internal Audio Analog Stereo. Sound recording works but I can't change the output volume for recording. Even if I move the slider to the left or right in the recording tab the volume is not changed, the volume meter shows the same amplitudes. How can I change the output volume for recording? Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What can be done with raw (.NEF) photographs?
by Carlos E. R. 13 Sep '15

13 Sep '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I got a new camera as a present, a Nikon D3200. Nice :-) I was, I think, an experienced amateur photographer, using film. I developed them, in B/W. Colour I didn't have the setup, complex and expensive. When digital photography came, I considered it low quality compared to what could be acchieved with chemical photography, as high resolution cameras were really expensive. Eventually I stopped doing photographs, as chemical photography about disapeared. I only got a 12Mpixel pocket camera about 2010, a Samsung. I'm happy with it. So now I have a fairly decent camera, 24 Mpixels and reasonably good optics (reviewers say it is an entry level camera, though). Linux recognizes my camera out of the box. I have it set to store both raw and jpeg files for each photos. I notice that shotwell prefers to display .NEF photos, and sometimes creates jpeg files from them. I think it calls the process "developing". It can be done by the camera or by shotwell. You see, what I need to learn first is what can be done with raw (.NEF) photos, concepts, and what software is appropriate in Linux. For the first and second items, I need the FM of RTFM ;-) , so if you know of good reads, please share ;-) - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

I have exiftool sort my photos into year-month or year-month-day directories. I can rename them on the fly. With darktabe I can set the algorithm for the name of the jpg, tiff, png ... that is generated from the 'editing". I can convert my edits into macros.

Where do you see a problem? The first key is the one probably in a safe place, the public key was exported, then a subkey for signing was generated probably on a smartcard, , kgpg then reports for what I see here the subkey. The fingerprint of the subkey is reported in short form > > Kgpg states > > C2FE 18E6 D4A7 021A 787C B734 4574 4695 0DE8 0E03 > sub 4096R / 0x 4574 4695 0DE8 0E03 > > So, where do you see a problem here? Seems all right to me. The problem is that KGPG shows some kind of fingerprint, maybe the fingerprint of a subkey like you wrote. But I need fingerprints to verify the correct transmission of public keys. The correct fingerprint of the SUSE Security Team is (see https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Security_team): pub 4096R/317CD502 2014-10-02 Key fingerprint = E502 243D F6B7 E939 EA1B 4A0E 58FC 58B1 317C D502 uid [ full ] SUSE Security Team <security(a)suse.de> sub 4096R/0DE80E03 2014-10-02 My gpg2 command line tools shows this fingerprint, but KGPG shows something else (C2FE 18E6 D4A7 021A 787C B734 4574 4695 0DE8 0E03). I'd like to verify that other users also see a wrong fingerprint in KGPG before filing a bug report.

[opensuse] About NetworkManager
by Xen 11 Sep '15

11 Sep '15

I'm just wondering if I'm alone in this. NetworkManager just bugs out a lot. For example, just now when this laptop came out of standby, obviously (perhaps) the wifi had been lost. But it wouldn't reconnect. It just failed. It only worked after I did: service NetworkManager restart. Then it connected automatically. Sometimes when I close my VPN (configured via NM) it won't start up again. I have to go to a shell and run it manually and I don't know why, but NM will just immediately 'return' after clicking my VPN connection's "connect". Perhaps that can be fixed with "service NetworkManager restart" also. The way my system is set up there should really be no flaws. The wifi creates an SSH tunnel, when the wifi goes down the tunnel is killed. The tunnel is there for the VPN, which I create manually from the NM-applet in KDE. When the VPN goes down the tunnel is not closed, it doesn't need to. If the tunnel closes unexpectedly I'm in a bit more trouble, I have to first check whether the tunnel is still live (I do it with tunnel status) and after that I might need to check the connection to the tunnel host, I haven't automated that yet. But closing and reopening wifi also does this. NetworkManager interferes with VPNs it does not set up itself, but it is no great interference, I just cannot delete the default route of the default wifi connection. Troublesome, but no deal breaker at this point because the new openvpn route supersedes it. Troublesome though that NM think it's so important. Anyone else experience these issues? I have had before in another KDE distro as well. I was trying to create my own "NM" suite with scripts but obviously I don't know enough about KDE to create my own applet. And it requires a lot of work to get any sort of roaming support (logging onto different networks). It just seems NM's internal state often goes corrupt.

[opensuse] zypper dup wants to remove thunderbird?
by Wilhelm Köpper 11 Sep '15

11 Sep '15

Dear all, a recent "zypper dup" on tumbleweed resulted in a prompt to confirm that thunderbird would be removed from the system. But I need thunderbird. Is this an error or is thunderbird replaced by some other package I didn't see? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Documentation for KVM !

All, I'm about to setup my first VM using KVM. Thought I would look to see if there was any openSUSE documentation related to that. I found a 85 page reference book on just that one topic. https://activedoc.opensuse.org/book/opensuse-virtualization-with-kvm Bravo!

[opensuse] unmount usb flash manually in terminal
by Istvan Gabor 11 Sep '15

11 Sep '15

Hello: This occurs in openSUSE 13.1 and its deafult KDE4 installation. User abc is logged in at graphical display 0 through kdm inot KDE4 session. He inserts a USB stick which is recognized and mounted automatically by KDE4 device manager. df -h /dev/sdb1 978M 94M 884M 10% /run/media/abc/KINGSTON The he wants to unmount it in a login shell (ssh session): umount /dev/sdb1 umount: /var/run/media/abc/KINGSTON: umount failed: Operation not permitted umount /run/media/flexys/KINGSTON/ umount: /run/media/abc/KINGSTON: umount failed: Operation not permitted Is this normal? How can the user unmount the device? Not by suing to root but as a normal user.

[opensuse] How can a website influence KDE behaviour?
by Daniel Bauer 11 Sep '15

11 Sep '15

Hi, there is a website that makes heavy use of JavaScript (and other things???). When this site is open for a while in seamonkey, strange little things begin to happen on my desktop: - the last digit of the watch in the control bar doesn't diplay correct (it's like if half two numbers were displayed at the same time) - the "buttons" in the windows bar begin to flicker heavily When I close the window, the screen behaves normal again, immediately. It only happens on this particular site and I can reproduce it. How can a website influence things outside of the browser? How can I control that it cannot come "over the border" of it's own window? I cannot deactivate JavaScript, because the site wouldn't work without (Java and flash are deactivated, some things on the site are blocked using add block plus). For some reasons I want to keep this site window open (it helps me to be shown as "online" there). What can I do? Thanks for ideas!
