[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] occupied size, ext4 versus ntfs
by jdd 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Hello, I just hit a curious thing. I use two identical (bough together) external usb 5Tb drives (as archives) Fort whatever reason one was formatted EXR4 and the other kept as NTFS I just made a rsync --delete from one to the other, verified they keep the exact same number of files. The ext4 one have 915 Gb free, the other 687 Gb wtf!! is it possible to move such disk from ntfs to ext4 without reformatting all (and copying 4.5Tb data)? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] suse_update_desktop_file: invalid option -- 'w'
by Bjoern Voigt 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] Encrypted DVD Playback Kodi PVR [OT]
by Paul Groves 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Off topic as it is Ubuntu but I cannot find any support on the ubuntu lists. I am currently setting up a kodi PVR which is all finished apart from DVD playback. I have ubuntu 16.04 on my desktop which I set up about a year ago and the dvds play fine on there (As well as opensuse and win 10) When I set ubuntu up on here I did this which has always worked. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 libdvdnav4 libdvdread4 libdvd-pkg sudo apt-get install libdvd-pkg sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg I have repeated these steps on my PVR (even did a clean install with and without updates) and I can only play non-encrypted DVDs. (None of the ones I have purchased legally work)! I installed windows 10 and libdvdcss for windows on the same hardware (both computers) and all my DVDs play fine (the ones I had time to try anyway). But I don't want to use windows! Everything else works in ubuntu just not DVDs! I have tried two dvd drives and same problem on both (both work on my desktop PC) Does anyone know what has changed in the last year? This is the last thing I need to get working to install my pvr. Blu ray playback works out of the box but not DVDs! Thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 42.2 - No IPv6 privacy address on Ethernet
by James Knott 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

I can get a MAC based IPv6 address, using Network Manager, but not the random number based privacy address. The connection is configured with privacy "Enabled (prefer temporary address)" and have tried both Automatic and Automatic (only addresses) in the configuration. -- 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.
