[opensuse] package problems

On laptop #1, which I upgraded with zypper dup to 42.2 instead of doing a clean install, I was having some trouble with some multimedia files, so I went to the sticky in the forums and followed the multimedia installation guide to see if it would sort things out. Here is an error I got while doing the zypper install of the multimedia libraries and things: Retrieving package libgpac6-0.6.1-1.9.x86_64 (46/58), 1.5 MiB ( 4.4 MiB unpacked) Retrieving: libgpac6-0.6.1-1.9.x86_64.rpm .............................................................................................[done (24.0 KiB/s)] Warning: Digest verification failed for file 'libgpac6-0.6.1-1.9.x86_64.rpm' [/var/cache/zypp/packages/packman.inode.at-suse/Essentials/x86_64/libgpac6-0.6.1-1.9.x86_64.rpm] expected 735d9f2d7233cdf238f8a80ea1f35defa64d5a1142f3dd08ab800ebfaf10bbc8 but got a8546981826b9f38054d277cdd885418b553b1cdec3c7c95d1dd410f8181f1cb Accepting packages with wrong checksums can lead to a corrupted system and in extreme cases even to a system compromise.

[opensuse] Ugly looking fonts in Leap:42.2
by Dave Plater 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

Hi, after doing a clean Leap:42.2 install and importing my user and old home directory from 42.1, I have ugly fonts. I first thought it was firefox but opera looks the same. See cropped screenshot from firefox: http://pasteboard.co/2Tdo3TMF2.jpg I can vaguely remember a similar problem when I first installed 42.1 with my nVidia card installed with the nouveau driver but I experienced so many problems I took out the card. This is in plasma5 kde. I've enabled antialiasing and tried different system fonts and if I force font dpi the fonts just get smaller and bigger.

[opensuse] kvm vs. xen vs. virtualbox
by George from the tribe 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

Thoughts anyone? I run virtualbox, the version I get from oracle instead of the repos. I run 3 different machines on it - windows 10, windows 7, and xp. The only thing I don't like is that the vdi file tends to get big, which is fine for my desktop, but doesn't work for my laptop. On my laptop, then the machine becomes pretty slow. I would be interested in knowing what people think about the others, if they are easier to use, less cumbersome, and if it takes a big learning curve to get it to set up. -- George Box: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: 42.1 | Plasma 5.4.7, Qt 5.7.0 | Core i7-4710HQ | 64 | 16GB Laptop #2: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Firefox wrongly says server not found
by Carlos E. R. 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, One of my local machines responds on "http://moria.valinor", but when I try to browse to it (there is a local dns) it instead goes to "http://www.moria.valinor", which of course does not exist. The cause is that momentarily "http://moria.valinor" has the web daemon down, so that automatically Firefox tries to outhink me and tries prefixing with www. How can I stop FF from being that "clever" and stick to what I type? Currently I powered off that moria.valinor machine, and FF does the right thing and says "unable to connect". - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] batch processing on gwenview?
by George from the tribe 28 Nov '16

28 Nov '16

So, is there no more batch processing of picture files in gwenview in the new gwenview that comes with 42.2? This was one of the key features that made the program useful. When I would create my newsletters, I would batch process all of the picture files I needed to a smaller size before adding them to the newsletter. -- George Box: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i7-4710HQ | 64 | 16GB Laptop #2: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] root full
by Paul Groves 28 Nov '16

28 Nov '16

Hi, I have a server on opensuse 42.1 and my root partition keeps getting full. The first time I just deleted everything in /tmp /var/log and also all the snapper snapshots which cleared it up (11% use), but this time I am still 55% full! My set up is 2 128GB ssds in a raid mirror there is a logical volume group here vg0 then there is a 24GiB lv for swap, 20GiB lv for / and 67.77GiB for /home I notice the recommended / partition on 42.1 is 40gb not 20 like previous opensuse versions, but this was an upgrade from 13.1 through 13.2 then 42.1 so was always the same. I said to myself "I know! I could just use yast partitoner to shrink the logical volume for home by 20GiB then expand / by 20 to make it 40GiB" but NO! Yast cannot alter the size of BtrFS (root) or XFS (home) filesystems even though they are the default configuration! argh! I thought it was too simple (always a catch)! Does anyone know a way around this before my server refuses to boot again due to 99% full / ? Help would be much appreciated.
