[opensuse] Email Server
by Paul Groves 05 Dec '16

05 Dec '16

Hi All, I am looking to set up an email server (on my existing home server). Any recommendations? I want the basic abilities (smtp imap and pop / mail groups / address books etc.) It will mainly be used with my wordpress / osticket installs as well as forwarding emails to lists. I have not set up a linux mail server before so would not know where to start. The server is opensuse 42.1 64-bit Thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Anyone with problems using GNU Emacs on TW?
by Dr. Werner Fink 03 Dec '16

03 Dec '16

Hi, I've a curious bug report for GNU Emacs used on the command line. The user reports that if an ampersand is used to background the emacs process it does not show a window on the X screen. But the window will be shown if the shell command fg is used ... Werner -- "Having a smoking section in a restaurant is like having a peeing section in a swimming pool." -- Edward Burr

[opensuse] suse_update_desktop_file: invalid option -- 'w'
by Bjoern Voigt 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

If I try to rebuild the current version of MythTV from Packman (mythtv-0.28+git.20161105.1434df8-1.1.src.rpm) I get the following error message: mybox:~ # rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/packages/SPECS/mythtv.spec suse_update_desktop_file: invalid option -- 'w' error: Unknown option w in suse_update_desktop_file(cinrud:D:N:C:G:) suse_update_desktop_file: invalid option -- 'w' error: Unknown option w in suse_update_desktop_file(cinrud:D:N:C:G:) Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.kunUcV + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/packages/BUILD I have absolutely no idea, where does the option 'w' come from. 'rpmbuild' itself seems to throw the error message. /usr/lib/rpm/suse_update_desktop_file.sh has only an error message with uppercase letters (echo "UNKNOWN OPTION: $1"). I use OS Tumbleweed 20161119. Any ideas? Greetings, Björn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Some weirdness re systemd and mount (42.2)
by Carlos E. R. 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, in the process of setting up my new miniserver, I bumped into a curios situation. Two days ago I copied several files from the old server, one of them, some entries from fstab. One, was this: /dev/mapper/cr_hoard2 /data/hoard xfs nofail,noatime 0 3 LABEL=old_d_tmpry /data/waterhoard xfs user,relatime,exec,nofail 1 3 Then I noticed that systemd was trying to mount them and complaining about some dependency not found re mounting the disks - obviously, as they were not yet connected, I needed a new usb3 enclosure instead of the old usb2. No big deal, just some log noise. I simply commented out the line: #/dev/mapper/cr_hoard2 /data/hoard xfs nofail,noatime 0 3 #LABEL=old_d_tmpry /data/waterhoard xfs user,relatime,exec,nofail 1 3 Well, today I assembled the two disks and connected them. Both went online as soon as each was powered up, despite the line in fstab being deactivated! No, I don't mean mounted somewhere in /media via the desktop. No. They were mounted in the places that figured in the fstab file! Seems things are getting worse in this respect in 42.2 than in 13.1 :-( (the password for the encrypted disk is in a file on the encrypted home partition, so that part was not a surprise) - -- Cheers Carlos E.

[opensuse] Turn off touch pad in 42.2
by James Knott 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

I have a ThinkPad E520 notebook computer. With earlier versions of openSUSE, I was able to disable the touch pad with a script in the .kde4/Autorun directory, which disabled the touch pad. This doesn't seem to work with 42.2. Even running it manually doesn't work. How do I turn off the #$%*&#$ touch pad??? The script contained: !/bin/sh synclient TouchpadOff=1 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Touchscreen question
by Koenraad Lelong 30 Nov '16

Hi, I have a POS system using Opensuse. I just got a touchscreen which has an "Elo TouchSystems, Inc. Elo TouchSystems IntelliTouch 2500U" touch-input-device. lsusb : Bus 002 Device 004: ID 04e7:0007 Elo TouchSystems 2500U IntelliTouch® Touchmonitor Interface The POS system is now running OS13.1. Since this version reached it's end of life, I was planning to install Leap 42.2 so I installed that on a spare PC to test. The touchscreen default has the X-axis reversed, so I used xinput set-prop 'Elo TouchSystems, Inc. Elo TouchSystems IntelliTouch 2500U' 'Evdev Axis Inversion' 1, 0 on the OS13.1 system. I added this to the end of /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.common.That works in the tests I did. Unfortunately, xinput on Leap42.2 seems to have a modified xinput (although the versions are the same : version 1.6.1), it does not have the "Evdev" properties. xinput list-props (on the "Leap" PC) shows this : xinput list-props 'Elo TouchSystems, Inc.

[opensuse] Three Seconds
by Mark Misulich 30 Nov '16

Hi, I upgraded to Leap 42.2 from 13.2 about a week ago by complete format and reinstall. But I didn't have time to install my printer and scanner since I had to leave to travel for work. Last night, I installed the scanner and the printer when I returned home from my trip. The scanner works great, but the printer isn't working properly. Specifically, the printer won't shut down and stay shut off. If I shut it off via the power button, the printer will turn on automatically after three seconds. I have tried to install the printer with three different drivers to see if that would fix the problem, but it doesn't. I uninstalled the printer in yast, and that didn't fix the problem even after a reboot. At present, I have no printer installed but it will start automatically when I boot Leap 42.2. If I try to shut the printer down, three seconds later it will power up again. The OS is Leap 42.2 with KDE Plasma 5.7. The printer is an HP Deskjet 970Cxi. Thanks in advance for your help.

[opensuse] Building mldonkey locally
by Carlos E. R. 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Package mkdonkey is not present in 42.2 packman. I have been told this is because "it fails to build with the newer ocaml". Thus I'm building it locally, a process that downloads and builds ocaml in the current directory, previous to building mldonkey itself. I suppose it downloads a definite version of ocaml, so there is no problem with the build. But there is a a missing feature: Core features: - zlib (required) enabled - threads enabled - bzip2 enabled - iconv enabled - libmagic enabled - upnp & natpmp disabled <== - graphical stats enabled - png support enabled - jpg support disabled I found that "libmagic" needs file-devel, and "graphical stats" needs "gd-devel". But I don't know what library is required to enable "upnp & natpmp". Any ideas? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
