[opensuse] USB Docking Station Brought Tumbleweed Tumbling Down a Rocky Slope
by SDM 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

Hi, I'm using dd on openSUSE TW 20160113 to zero out (/dev/zero) 2 SATA hard drives, and have plugged them both into a generic USB docking station that has always allowed me to read SMART data from any drive and never had any problems transferring terabytes of data. I wanted to zero both drives out because they were given to me as possibly faulty, and in my research I've found that zeroing out a disk can make bad sectors surface, and then show up in the SMART data which is exactly my intention. The issue I just had is that with the first disk (WD Blue 500 GB), after dd ran for some time it locked my system up and I couldn't log out of or restart Plasma. I switched to a different TTY and issued the "reboot" command as root, and even then systemd was giving me "a start job is running" message which appeared about 3 times, for different processes. One notable thing which errored out is my home partition wasn't properly unmounted. I then just hit the reset switch because I wasn't going to sit there all night. The UEFI BIOS then hung until I yanked the USB cable out of the USB port. Before powering the SATA docking station down, I had a Windows laptop nearby which I plugged the docking station into, and it hung up on installing the USB drivers, and just sat there with a spinning circle. I then powered the docking station down and then back up, and drivers were instantly found. I then plugged the SATA docking station's USB cable into my openSUSE PC and it didn't hang on boot and everything was normal again. When I ran smartctl on the drive, a new error came up: ---------- *Read SMART Log Directory failed: scsi error medium or hardware error (serious) ** **** **Warning! SMART ATA Error Log Structure error: invalid SMART checksum. ** **SMART Error Log Version: 1 ** **No Errors Logged * ---------- From then on, that error came up when running smartctl on that drive and was very slow to display information in terminal. So I figured the drive was pretty much toast, even though there wasn't anything else interesting in the SMART logs reads with smartmontools. I checked on smartmontools' website and it says the software does support reading SMART data over USB. It looks as though possibly a bad logic board on the drive temporarily messed up firmware in the USB docking station, which in turn wreaked havoc with Linux. I'm getting the feeling that Linux with its monolithic kernel is very unforgiving if you have a bad USB device, or, in my case (if my guess is right) a bad logic board on an HDD which in turn messed up the firmware on the docking station. The same exact thing happened with the second drive; a Hitachi 750 GB HDD. Drive was inserted into the USB docking station, I ran dd while periodically checking SMART data in another terminal window, and eventually plasma started choking and I had to reboot from another TTY. This time there was no problem unmounting /home, but the "a start job is running" error came up on a couple processes. I believe this time I did unplug the USB cable before issuing the reboot command, and maybe if I hadn't done that the same thing would have happened as before where it couldn't unmount /home on my SATA HDD in my computer and it would have hung up making me then press reset. Once again, I couldn't boot the system with the USB docking station plugged into USB port. The UEFI graphical BIOS would hang at "B4", which is in a little readout in the lower right-hand corner which gives you status on the POST process. As soon as I unplugged the docking station, it stopped hanging at "B4" and was fine. So obviously the USB docking station can be brought to its knees by a bad drive or is faulty, but I doubt the latter because I've never had this issue with it. Again, as before with the previous drive, as soon as I power cycled the docking station with the Hitachi plugged in, there were no hangs on boot and everything went back to normal. Currently i'm running dd on a known good drive which itself is plugged into the docking station, and monitoring its progress to see if maybe the problem wasn't with the two drives but rather the docking station. However, it looks as though it's going to make it through the full wipe. No freezes yet, and it's almost finished. I may test with a live USB Linux image plugged into my laptop, and do the dd wipe there since I can't afford to have my main desktop cut down to a stump again, and have everything go to complete crap. I would like some input as to how something like what I wrote about can crap up the whole system bus and make Linux an unhappy camper. Is this one of the weaker areas of the kernel, a bug, or something else? Maybe it wouldn't have happened on Leap, and has something to do with the kernel on TW? Update: the known good drive finished the dd wipe process without locking up my system.

[opensuse] Baloo file indexing bork
by John Andersen 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

Some time recently, around when KDE 4.14 came out, and also in KDE Plasma5 (or whatever its official name is) Baloo (which was working very well for me) stopped indexing plain/text files unless they had an extension of .txt AND were smaller than 50K. I traced this to what was supposed to be a short term hack in src/file/extractor/app.cpp which can be seen here: https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=baloo.git&a=commitdiff&h=44975bd11c4c97be13a117… That was a year and a half ago, and it only JUST recently slipped into KDE4 and KDE5. The thing is, I have been relying on Baloo indexing of massive amounts of source code to find references, usages, etc. Source is plain text, and suddenly the rug has been yanked out from under me as Baloo will no longer index plain text. I am seeing this also in KDE Framework 5.17 (Arch/Manjaro) and I suspect in Leap. Does anyone have a working Baloo installation undr Leap 42 that they can test this out? Create a file called deletme.txt and add a few words plus a uncommon word like slartybartfast into it. Copy deleteme.txt to deleteme.ttt At command line type baloosearch slartybartfast You should see both files listed. This fails on Manjaro-kde and Opensuse 13.2, only one file is indexed. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Question: Leap 42 and Icon in Taskbar
by Basil Chupin 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

I just updated by test installation of Leap to the very latest whoopsies and found that 'ksnapshot' has been replaced by 'spectacle'. Fine, I knew about this change so 'No worries, mate'. I had 'ksnapshot' as an icon in the QuickLaunch section of the Taskbar -- but now that 'ksnapshot' has been replaced and removed from the system I still have the icon for 'ksnapshot' in the QuickLauch section of the Taskbar. But, of course, it no longer launches 'ksnapshot' and so I don't need the damn thing. But I cannot remove this icon for 'ksnapshot'. In openSUSE 13.2 it is simply a matter of right-clicking on the icon, selecting 'icon settings' and clicking on 'remove icon' or some such words. But not in Leap 42. Oh no. Jumping around the room with a dead chicken being swung over one's head doesn't remove the icon either :'( . Does anyone know, please, how to remove the icon -- or any icon for that matter! -- from the Taskbar?

[opensuse] Network set up after crash
by don fisher 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

I am running 13.2, and was trying to build USB drive. Something was wrong, and when I tried to boot the USB drive it started looking for LVM and other things. My system was broken. I managed to recover most of it using rsync and data on other drives. But I cannot get the networking to full capability. I have been running wicked. If I do ifdown and ifup on my devices, they appear to work. But when I go to the tray and click on network icon it is blank. It shows no devices or connections. When I click the wrench, the widow there also gives me no device choices. I can run Thunderbird, but the graphical windows contained within the emails do not load. Thunderbird displays "loading message" at the bottom, but nothing happens. I looked at the section on using the Network Manager and enabled it as described. I did a rcnetwork restart as it suggested, but nothing changed. Where does the applet go to look for the network devices and connections? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

[opensuse] alternatives to pk-update-icon
by David Hume 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

I had pk-update-icon installed, but it was notifying me of updates which would then fail to install. On the last occasion I ran zypper and it said there was nothing to do. So I un-installed pk-update-icon, but is there some other thing which will notify of updates? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] leap: rkhunter warn about sshd change
by stakanov＠freenet.de 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

I have been warned by rkhunter about an sshd change. This is odd, because I did not change anything. So I went to /etc/ssh/sshd and I went through it. I found a string that is new (and that for the time being I commented out. Before it did read like this: # override default of no subsystems Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server As I did not put this: has there been an update? And why would an update activate sftp-server on my system (AFAIK, I do not use it). And if, wouldn't this even be the completely false syntax, as this should then be used together with a " Match group sftponly entry in the same sshd to avoid users to access sshd settings. And it would make sense only if a allow user or allow group policy was set. I did not allow anybody. Thanks for helping me to understand the sense and the justification of existence for this string. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse] list of directories containing a specific file type
by Istvan Gabor 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

Hello: I would like to search for all the directories containing files with jpg extension (*.jpg) on my system. The output should list only the directory paths, one path only once either it contains one or more *.jpg files. The file names should be omitted. I'd like to do it in a bash terminal. Is this feasible? I looked at the find command but could find how to get the wanted output.

I do not have a group sftp or sftponly. For what I know I am currently not using sftp. So would it be correct to comment that string out? The rkhunter warning was: Warning: The file properties have changed: File: /usr/bin/ssh Current inode: 1578894 Stored inode: 1573455 Warning: The file properties have changed: File: /usr/sbin/sshd Current inode: 1718294 Stored inode: 1715420 Warning: Hidden file found: /usr/bin/.fipscheck.hmac: ASCII text I do understand the ssh change. This is the recent openssl update. I will run propupd later but why did sshd change? An update should always leave allone sshd shouldn' it? So for the sake of understanding: why would the inode of sshd change? Since I did not understand the rational of setting up a subsystem that I do not use (I do not use ssh at all on this machine, well, everything that I do not understand (in the sense of "why" it should be activated and that points to remote functionality is making me a bit suspicious.

[opensuse] kdialog and the latest snapshot
by ianseeks 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

HI I've got a back up script running at logout, its does a few rsync's but i use kdialog to display a passive popup prior to each rsync to monitor the progress. I press logout and get the blue splash as expected as the desktop disappears and as it tries to display the first popup, it crashes with an error that is almost immediately covered by my original desktop layout (task bar included sometimes). The backup script carries on happily and displaying all rest of the popups as per normal (on the desktop displayed), it completes fine and then redisplays the blue splash and then returns to the KDM login dialog. i've tried this on a different login on the same machine and it works fine. Any clues how to find out what the system crash error displayed was or what part of the system do i log the error against. regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] usb mouse scroll doesn't work
by Istvan Gabor 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

Hello: I have changed my computer. The new machine has only USB input for mouse. Previously I used PS/2 mouse and it worked well. In the new machine the scroll function of the mouse's third button doesn't work (though it works as a clickable third button). The OS is openSUSE 12.2 with KDE 3. How can I configure the mouse in it?

[opensuse] something like vnstat (internet usage stats) for OS 13.2?
by Daniel Bauer 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hi, I need to find out how much down-/upload I use (to know what mobile contract to choose). Googling pointed me to a program named vnstat, but that exists only for ubuntu (or to be compiled from source, which is "too much" for me). Is there something like that or a simple way to find out for OS 13.2 available somewhere, ready to install and use? I just need simple numbers: how much did I download and upload from/to internet on this single machine per day. thanks for your help.

To somewhat reiterate the problem, then describe events of the day: 1-I installed 42.1 two weeks ago on this machine, including Brother's cupswrapper and lpr driver rpms for my printer, successfully and without incident (instructions on http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/before.html?c=us_ot and http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/instruction_prn1a.html?c=us_ot and http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/instruction_prn3.html?c=us_ot via http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/index.html?c=us_ot ) then set it up successfully via YaST2 printer module, printing the YaST2 test page and multiple pages from various apps. 2-Tuesday I encountered trouble printing one particular web page with 6 different Gecko browsers, but not with Firefox 10 or Konq3. This turned out to be an apparent problem with (my bank's bill pay) report page intended for printing, which I reported by email and phone to my bank's web support department. 3-Earlier today when my bank responded with instructions via email, I followed those I hadn't already done. 4-I then attempted to verify the problem isn't limited to this PC by trying to print the same page on another PC, host hpg33. My first try was to have been on one running 42.1, but the YaST2 printer driver installation process wasn't resulting in ability to print a test page. I confirmed printer functionality by printing from this 42.1 host, msi85. 5-Next I tried on a third PC, host gx745, this time with Tumbleweed/Plasma and 13.2/KDE4. The YaST2 test page failures repeated, so I deleted those, then created one via localhost;631. It claimed to succeed, but test page print again failed. I deleted that one too, then tried installing via Brother's installation shell script. It too failed at the test page step. At various times I confirmed printer still works by printing from this 42.1 PC. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Print/BR5470/vtcap.txt is a screen dump from running the script. 6-Pain in my back like never before experienced began, interfering with thought processes and thus inhibiting progress finding the problem. 7-I tried on a fourth PC, host gx62b, again TW and K5. Nothing different. Test page failed. Again I reconfirmed ability to print on this 42.1 PC. 8-I returned to 42.1/K5 host hpg33, tried a couple of times again to create via YaST2 printer, without improvement, so I exited Plasma, and used zypper to remove *cups* packages, which also uninstalled ghost*, 5470 printer rpms, and most of K5. 9-I restored OEM versions of zypp.conf and and zypper.conf, then zypper installed every *cups* and ghost* rpm that I found installed on this PC. That installed packages that hadn't previously been installed. 10-Before reinstalling K5 with zypper, I restored my edited zypp.conf and zypper.conf (disabling recommends/suggests). I followed up installing K5 by again installing the 5470 rpms. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Print/BR5470/cupspkgs-hpg33-os421d.txt lists the currently installed print (AFAIK) related packages. 11-After perusing https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS/Troubleshooting I set debug in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, then rebooted 42.1. 12-Configuring printer via YaST2 again wouldn't print a test page, so deleted that one and tried one with localhost:631. On completion, CUPS reports state stopped "filter failed", even though I didn't find any button to push to ask for a test page. Reprint button doesn't cause printer activity. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Print/BR5470/cups-accesslog-hpg33-os421f.txt Scattered among the above steps were excursions to Google looking for what to do about various error messages, starting with those quoted by Patrick. Another was 'Bad driver information file "/usr/share/cups/drv/..', so I compared those two files between this machine and hpg33, and found identical timestamps and file sizes. Nevertheless, I stopped cups, then copied those two files from this machine to hpg33, then rebooted,, reloaded localhost:631, asked for a test page, and again got nothing from the printer, with latest job showing as having been completed. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Print/BR5470/cups-errorlogdebug-hpg33-os421g.… indicates no "E" errors occurred. During the setups, the IP connection test always succeeds. Host hpg33 can ping the printer successfully too. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Print/BR5470/ has many logs accumulated, mostly from host hpg33, split into mutiple files corresponding roughly to different boots. noteworthy is its cups page_log dates back to installation of the first cups packages, and remains 0 bytes. NAICT, the access_logs all indicate nothing but apparent successes. If it wasn't for this machine able to print, I would have to think there's a bug here somewhere causing a failure to print without any log indicating that printing did not occur. But I suspect if there is a bug, it's a missing package that should be a dependency but isn't. My head's swimming in confusion, frustration, and back pain, after around 15 hours buried in this. Can anyone see in any of those logs what I need to do to get any 13.2, 42.1 or TW installation besides this one to print anything? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse] Regarding Carlos ER's Mailinglist Ban
by Richard Brown 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hi all, Thanks to those participating in the conversation concerning mailing list moderation that did not resort to personal attacks, name calling, or implying ill will towards any particular member of the community. We have reviewed both the direct feedback to board(a)opensuse.org and all comments of the various threads and have come to the following conclusion. While the imposed ban on Carlos from the lists was justified, well intentioned and has resolved the disruption that was occurring on some lists, in retrospect the ban had further reaching impacts than expected, including removing a good source of help from this opensuse(a)o.o mailinglist. For that, we would like to apologise. We have asked the ML admin team to re-instate Carlos on opensuse@.o.o while keeping the positing restriction on other lists in place until February 14th. Again thanks to those participating in the discussion that focused on the matter of the issue.

[opensuse] On resume from hibernation, firefox always warns of unresponsive script.
by Carlos E. R. 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I often hibernate my machines, and on return Firefox pops a warning, on a random workspace, that says (hand copied): Warning: unresponsive script A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the script continue. Script: http://...somewhere (varies) [stop script] [continue] I typically click on "stop". There is also a tick box to ignore for ever or similar words (sorry, I lost the dialog box now) My guess is that whatever script is caught in the instant hibernation freeze occurs, Firefox wrongly thinks that has timed out because it uses wall time, not real running time. Is this a known issue? Can it be reported, and if so, where? I guess upstream. Ideas? Maybe just click on "ignore"? I don't use the ignore tick, because then it will not warn of unresponsive scripts during normal usage, and I don't want that. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

The problem is known (I found reference to Ark, to Ubuntu but I can confirm also for opensuse 13.2). It hit BT mouse usage when doing the following: dongle protocol 3 or 4, Mouse brand logitech, (it seems that several mice of this brand are touched by this, in my case it was logitech M557). The problem consist not so much in the pairing process (that does work and the mouse reacts as expected). But you loose the possibility to use it again after shutdown, suspend to ram or to disk. These mice will then not wake up (or better to say they will not reconnect. Cursor will blink and communicate with the dongle, but now connection will take place. If instead you do re-pair it from the scratch, it will then work as expected until shutdown or suspend. So if your mouse is not hit by this I am very happy. If your post would have given the reference of which BT mouse and type you are using that yes would be helpful to user users. Not so much to me, as I know already that these mice do not work for that version of bluedevil (it seems to be related with the BT library more than with the blue devil itself. I tried to download from a build-service repo a newer version but this did not help. As the mouse is currently sold for cheap in Italy, I thought it would be useful to have trace of this here, or advice before buying it. Sure, once you will run Leap or Tumbleweed (or just plasma 5) on your PC you will not run into it anymore. https://www.google.de/search?q=M557+does+not+reconnect&gbv=1&sei=eXaVVuStMI… Seems to be broken for kde4 due to a library. In leap it works as expected. Unfortunately the owner does not want to change distribution right now as she was quite happy up to now with opensuse. P.S. dongle was a "Hamlet 4.0" BT (that works otherwise very well and is recognized flawlessly). On the notebook the BT counterpart was a combined qualcom WLAN/BT minicard.

[opensuse] boot any system
by jdd 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hello, I had recently boot problems, probably related to hardware problems (I stopped debugging this, too hard), I had to boot a damaged install (kernel available, but no initrd) and failed so. It's probably something simple I missed (but the tumbleweed rescue "start linux" system failed also). openSUSE can boot using "vmlinuz-xen" and "initrd-xen" from the /boot folder of the dvd to launch the install. It's easy (for one knowing the grub editor as I do) to copy these two files on any disk and lauch the install from there with grub. but how can I launch a rescue or native system from this? I tried to add "set root=/dev/sdXY" in grub, with no success other kernel/initrd? ideas? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] making iso from distribution bootable usb stick
by jdd 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Hello, We all probably know several ways to create a bootable usb stick from an iso image. I have lot of them in my openSUSE booth kit. But from time to time, pretty rarely, I get a computer that do not want to boot my usb pen. I had that yesterday, a 32 bits computer that booted leap 64 usb (onbly to say it can't install it, of course), but refused to boot 13.2 32 bits (that booted perfectly on the next computer). So, as I don't want to keep several dvd with me, I would like to know how to extract the iso from the usb device to copy it to a blank dvd (I can have spare ones). optionally, I was said it's possible with debian usb pen to boot any (probably debian) media, plug the usb and continue install from there. Is it possible to do the same with openSUSE? If so, I could use a single boot dvd and run after this any usb pen in other words, is it possible to launch yast-install from the command line? thanks jss -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] software updates in LEAP system tray
by George Olson (SUSE list) 13 Jan '16

13 Jan '16

Having just recently gotten Leap up and running on my main desktop and main laptop, I noticed that the software updates reminder is giving reminders pretty regularly now. In older versions of openSUSE, this was run by a program called apper, and I would just uninstall it so that I would run updates at my own convenience. My general practice has been to only run security patches regularly, as in daily, and bigger updates I would check maybe once a month or at longer intervals. I also remember there being a lot of complaints about apper, that was why in older versions I would just uninstall apper and run a zypper patch or zypper update to update everything when I needed to. I am interested in knowing 2 things about the new way of doing it in Leap. 1 - what is the name of the program/application/daemon that is running the software updates reminder that keeps popping up in my system tray? Apper is not installed on my new system, and I was not able to figure it out 2 - What does everyone thinkabout the new software updates management tool? Should I get rid of it and go back to my old practice? (thatis what I intend to do unless there are good reasons not to) Do people like it? Are the updates better now that Leap is a more stable system? -- George Box #1: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 16GB Box #2: 13.1 | KDE 4.12 | AMD Athlon X3 | 64 | 4GB Laptop #1: 13.1 | KDE 4.12 | Core i7-2620M | 64 | 8GB Laptop #2: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | Core i7-4710HQ | 64 | 16GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

R. > (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar) > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Well, the problem seems to be dual fold. One hand the pairing function for 13.2 is broken for BT mice (the problem is known and a won'tfix because it does substantially work in kde5). So it is fixed in Leap. But I found out today that the pairing function for bluetooth devices is broken at least for Samsung GMS smartphones in Leap too. Pairing fails and several odd things happen (like phones that are not paired are still able to be browsed by the PC, etc. I will check if someone did report this already if not open a bug report. Sure is that even if defining a manual PIN this does apparently not allow the mouse to connect if the other notebook/PC sends the correct password. So probably the mouse is limited (which in case of broken pairing function as in 13.2 makes BT mices for 13.2 useless). The logitech documentation of the device is......pitiful. For the time being we decided to use the mouse only on one machine. P.s. Welcome back. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse] I am confused: "high end" graphics Laptop for Suse (in Spain)?
by Daniel Bauer 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hi list(eners) I need to buy a new laptop and am very confused with the new hardware and it's compatibility with OpenSuse (I guess I will install leap?), especially this secure boot thing etc. I see that most of the laptops come with Win10 plus special stuff (cloud space and don't know what else), but I plan to reformat the disks and make a pure, fully encrypted Linux-machine, no dual boot, but Win within a virtualbox (needed for some camera software). What do I have to look for/make sure to have/not have, so that I can do a more or less easy install without being an expert, and without too much time to tinker and solve problems? Anybody has experience with recent HP, Asus, Lenovo? And how about Toshiba, which always seem to be cheaper? The tests I found are outdated (or not dated) or not related to Linux. So any hints are much appreciated! (And if anybody has hints where to best buy in Spain: great!)

[opensuse] leap boots randomly
by jdd 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hello, I have a problem with Leap that seems to get worst. Leap boots only randomly (that is boots completely only once in a while). I was thinking it was related to resume, but no more now https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=960392 my last idea is that it's related to kernel 4, because I have no problem booting 13.2 with kernel 3 my first question: * is it possible to setup a kernel for Leap if not booted, for example from a running 13.2 install? now for each test I have to reboot ten times... to have one full reboot! second question: is there a 3.x kernel for Leap? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Is there a way to create a portable openSUSE setup?

Greetings! I know most of the Ubuntu derivatives can be made into portable, persistent installs in USB drives. Is it possible to do the same with openSUSE? I need to be able to run some hardware compatibility tests and performance measurements in a new set of workstations, and doing them under oS, without disturbing the already installed Windows version is a requirement (hardware compatibility with oS is one of the things I need to test). I need to be able to customize, install, remove and save data to the oS install, so it needs to be persistent between sessions. Does anyone know if this is possible, and how to go about it?

She has bought a new mouse logitech BT587 and wants to do the following: to take the mouse and use it regularly on both computers. Problem is up to now that I cannot pair the device with both PC. Once it is paired with one, it does not function with the other (of course if the other PC is switched off). The reason is the automated pair function. So: 1) can I "clone" the BT paired folder to the laptop to use the same device with two computers? 2) can I pair both PCs without loosing the mouse on any of them and how would I achieve this. (Leap, KDE) 3) if I cannot do so, there is a problem that arises. I can easily pair the device because of the touchpad of the notebook. But on the PC I have a problem because to pair it with the kde BT I need a mouse, but that IS (or should be) my mouse. So can I create a shortcut that corresponds to an easy keyboard function and point it to the function of: "pair a new device"? In that way that the BT search function opens, the mouse can be selected with up/down keys between the devices and then enter key will pair and from there on the mouse is available, problem solved... Thank you for all eventual solutions. P.S. the user is not "CLI" expert so to define a keyboard shortcut to reach from "naked started desktop" would be the most viable solution in case of case "3". --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse] help with 4way_handshake_timeout
by don fisher 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

The wireless card on one of my systems will not connect. I am running wicked under 13.2. Looking at Google, they suggest changing the channel to improve signal strength, or extending the allowed time out period. Is there a way under openSuse to read the signal strength? What file needs to be modified to extend the time out period? Or other suggestions if the above are bogus hints.

[opensuse] packagekitd
by ianseeks 11 Jan '16

Hi my little Software Updater widget says its "Checking Updates" and its never getting to a point where it decides there are either "None" or "at least one" - how can you inform it to give up and try again later? I checked the System Activity (all Processes, Tree view) and it shows packagekitd with children of snapper.py and btrfs-defrag-pl - i'm not using btrfs, why is it loading a defrag for it? I've also got 4 stopped "plasmashell" entries in System Activity - should they go away? I'm using latest tumbleweed snapshot and kdm... regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] sometime Dolphin bugs on copy
by jdd 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hello Is there a way to read the logs of Dolphin (Leap, Kde plasma5?) When I try to copy folders from two Dolphin tags, I often get the error "found a file when a folder was expected" as it's not always, I would like to have more infos before posting a bugzilla entry. This just come right now when trying to copy a folder tree, but it's not the first time. Usually closing Dolphin and reopening it allows the copy. I noticed that if the tree was 2016 2016tr1 flile.jpg on the target I find a file "2016" (that was not present before), so the error may be writing a file when a folder was expected thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Strange update problem - Leap 42.1
by Gustav Degreef 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hello, I have been unable to update (via zypper, YOU or apper) since some time. It behaved normally after the initial install for some weeks. I can ping "google.com", Skype is working fine and I can access web pages with FF. But Apper says that the "network is offline". YOU fails to access multiple respositories. Also when I try to add a repository, I reach the page where I can select the community repositories but then I click next it gives the error that it failed to find any list of repositories. I have 13.2 on separate partitions and it behaves perfectly fine. On leap, Zypper gives the following: linux:/home/user # zypper patch Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/42.1/non-oss/repodata/repomd.xml': Error code: Connection failed Error message: Failed to connect to download.opensuse.org port 80: Network is unreachable Abort, retry, ignore?

[opensuse] .mod files
by don fisher 09 Jan '16

09 Jan '16

In a related thread, I stated that I used the distribution media with the upgrade option to update my system. As part of that process it did run grub2 and update the boot configuration. I now find that I have 256 .mod files in my root directory. What are they and what should I do with them? A Google link says they are usually generated by grub2, but I do not understand why they were generated or what to do with them. Ideas or pointers would be appreciated.

[opensuse] adding static ipv6 routes with YaST
by Per Jessen 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

I'll be testing this again later today, but last night I was having trouble setting up static IPv6 routes with YaST. They were simply never written to /etc/sysconfig/network/routes, nor was the current route table updated. I wanted to add e.g. fe80::1 as default gateway via ethX. 2001:DB8:1234::/48 on ethY. I tried on two different systems, 13.2 and Leap.

[opensuse] Solved a problem: no mp3/mp4 sound via javascript in seamonkey and firefox FYI
by stakanov＠freenet.de 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

To leave a trace for anybody in future going through this problem: symptom: no sound at all when a javascript calls MP3/MP4 on a webpage. When this occur, FF, then seamonkey, chromium and in the end even konqueror may be touched. The issue was in my case a corrupt cache. So you need to wipe ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0 Then it works like charm Thank you very much to Wolfgang Rosenauer who did find the solution to what drove me crazy. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse] (offtopic) how do you organize your data?
by Xen 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

I will try to keep this short, but I just wanted to ask if somebody had seen something or knows something that I might have missed. First of all this question is about textual or informational data. Just as you can keep e.g. newspaper articles in a folder, and notes in a notebook, and addresses in some address book, so too can you organize the same kind of data digitally. There are three categories of information: - personal (information pertaining to your person and your life) (first level) - notition (self-generated data that you maintain in order to remember things) (second level) - knowledge (archived articles, may included "bookmarks" as well) (third level). In Dutch I call these "personal", "data" and "knowledge" (or persoonlijk, gegevens, kennis). now of course you can just keep collections of text files interspersed with scanned images, saved photos, and so on. The user experience won't be that great, but it is resilient. We can call the three levels: self, group and world, or as it may related to Unix permissions: user, group and others. Typically the closer it is to yourself, the more likely you are to be the producer, and the more it relates to the world, the more likely it is for you to be a consumer, of the information. "projects" for instance may be personal, and private, but they may also be, and typically are, stuff that you show to others. You may not show it to everyone, so projects often fall into the 2nd group, or level. ---------------- but speaking purely of personal data, contact details (address book), notes you intend to keep, etc., we are speaking mostly of textual data at this point not excluding images or scans or photos, but still centered around 'knowledge'. In general, the format that lends itself best to these kinds of things is a WIKI ---------------- The problem with wikis is not only that they are often rather poor in terms of user friendliness or power (underdeveloped programs), the issue is also that you need to run it as a server. There are two classes of wikis that I know of: - runs in a browser as a self-contained system (TiddlyWiki) - requires a server to run ---------------- As a result: - either you store the data locally on your devices - or you use a web service ------------------ The best cross-platform web interface that I know is EVERNOTE. Evernote is available on every platform except Linux, and then you can still use the web interface. It is a proprietary solution but your best bet if you want your data to be easily accessible on mobile devices, although the Android version caused data corruption (corruption of spacing in text). In the past at least, not sure if still. As a personal device (that you might sync to the cloud) the concept of "wiki on a stick" becomes interesting. In order for personal data to be resilient, you need to be able to use it on any device. Unfortunately I know of no "wiki on a stick" solutions that are portable across platforms, and unless files are saved in regular formats (text and jpg,/png) they won't be much use on a cloud. Moreover this will never be really useful on a mobile device unless you have an application the equivalent of Evernote. So there are really two solutions for storage: ------------------- - Keep it on a stick that you keep synced to your regular computer(s) - Keep it on a cloud sync that you keep synced to your regular computer(s). And third: use an integrated solution centered around note-keeping, like Evernote. All of this seems rather poor to me. Currently I'm doing two of the following: - I have a slightly reasonable wiki solution called DokuWiki that I run on a personal VPS server (but I worry about security) - for larger data sets (software, manuals, multimedia) I maintain an OwnCloud server on the same VPS that functions as an online collection and data organisation. Of mostly software (for Windows), music, a bit of video, etc. In principle I could easily link the dokuwiki files to be accessible through OwnCloud. You could even imagine writing a plugin for owncloud to render the wiki files. But as most wiki solutions, DokuWiki is rather poor (so I don't use it much) and OwnCloud itself has an excellent file manager but other than that it is rather poor also. It's the best I can do at this point, although I still have old TiddlyWiki files lying around that contains an older addressbook etc. TiddlyWiki is actually quite userfriendly and also powerful, but in the end you need to do a lot of programming yourself to make it useful, and you are dependant on the thing never to get corrupted. Plus it is hard to run it with all the Java restrictions these days. So the question is really: has anyone done work in this area, and have you accomplished anything beyond what I have now? What I am doing (running my own VPS) would not be feasible for anyone else (everyone else) but you could consider yourself a provider of these things to others (friends, colleagues, etc.). If something like OwnCloud were sufficiently developed, it could start approaching the level of Dropbox or Synology NAS cloud solutions, but it's not really there by a far margin, and of course I made myself unwelcome with one of the authors as I couldn't achieve something that should have been ridiculously simple ;-). Synology has a well-developed platform (and you can run DokuWiki on it) but it requires running an appliance in your home and I require 'outsourcing' it to a VPS. A VPS solution is in-between personal local storage and anonymous/large scale cloud storage. A VPS really falls a bit into the 2nd level. It is not as personal as a stick, and it is not as world as a DropBox or whatever. Currently I only use OwnCloud for non-personal data and anything that is remotely secret/personal I encrypt individually. I also don't use it for anything requiring real filesystem support since I couldn't get WebDav working and it doesn't play nice with permissions if I were to share the filesystem where it stores its files. ================================================== So my question is: have you tried anything in this direction, and where are you now? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hello, I have too more problems... Fresh leap, with Packman. 1) I try to install "Kim" (Kde Image Management) that allows to resize an image (among other things). Previously installing Kim installed also usefull links in the context menu for jpg, for example. On my Leap, this context was not installed, I only get a lot of kim sub modules, but don't know how I an use them 2) I tried to manually add one of the modules to the context menu, using right clic / properties. This added correctly, but proved to be unusable as is... and I can't remove it! each time I try to remove this item from the context menu, the change is reverted! where is stored this thing, where I could fix it by hand? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
