[opensuse] Rebuilding a broken RAID1 array with previously used RAID1 partition
by Roger Price 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

Hi, I have two near identical boxes, each with RAID1 arrays: Box 1 md0 = Partitions /dev/sda1+/dev/sdb1 Disk sdb is dead Box 2 md0 = Partitions /dev/sda1+/dev/sdb1 Disk sda is dead I would like to repair Box 2 using the good disk sda taken from Box 1. After reading https://www.howtoforge.com/replacing_hard_disks_in_a_raid1_array My plan is to 1. On Box 2, mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sda1 2. Place good drive taken from Box 1 in Box 2 as the "new" sda 3. On Box 2, mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --add /dev/sda1 However the "new" partition /dev/sda1 is already a healthy RAID1 partition. Will it be automatically wiped clean of all previous Box 1 data before the Box 2 synchronisation takes place? I cannot find any documentation which says this. I don't want to end up with Box 1 data plus Box 2 data. Roger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] openSUSE LEAP 42.1 on Lenovo S21e laptop
by Adam Tauno Williams 27 Mar '16

27 Mar '16

Install works great! Two bugs so far: - Touchpad (pointing device) does not work - No WiFi (Broadcom BCM43142) - Plugging in a USB mouse, works, as expected Found a BLOB post @ < https://alpha-labs.net/2015/08/lenovo-s21e-linux-and-the-touchpad/> which gives me hope these issues are solvable. But curious if anyone else is using openSUSE on a Lenovo S-series? -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 openSUSE, a LINUX desktop for humans who need to get work done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Web site bogs down system - openSUSE 13.1
by James Knott 27 Mar '16

27 Mar '16

I have noticed that if I leave this site up in Firefox (45.0), my computer slows down to the point of being unusable. System monitor shows CPU, memory and swap usage growing to max. This happens on 2 computers. It does not happen with Windows 7. http://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/alerts/high-alert/ontario/toronto?ref=h… -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Leap on ASUS K501UX - no wifi
by Oszkó Albert 27 Mar '16

27 Mar '16

Hi all, A few listmates reported on Leap installed on their new laptop. I already told about my nouveau problems. Installation was smooth, system started only with nomodeset. As I saw I am not alone with the toucpad problem. Kernel 4.5 made touchpad work. But due to the mess i made I again made a clean install. Now kernel is 4.1.15 after upgrade. Installed nividia from repo, works fine. No toucdpad. I can live without it. Still the most annoying is that I cannot make wifi work. This machine has az Intel 7265 AC wifi which is simply dead. Once in a while it tries to do something, mostly kicks off wired connection. I suspect this is the case from my short lived installation of Ubuntu 16.04 beta. When I saw the wifi icon moving (which is not shown at all in oS) the wired connection was deactivated. And it is connected again only after reboot. Has anybody some experience with this wifi adapter working in leap? All hints are welcome.

[opensuse] Leap 42.1 and Kernel 4.5 signature error on boot try
by Allen Wilkinson 27 Mar '16

27 Mar '16

I am using the repository http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard I am installing on a new ASUS Zenbook. It has the touchpad problem often cited. So I thought I would try the current 4.5 kernel. On boot up it complains the 'signature file' is wrong and won't boot. I did the typical GUI YAST2 upgrade to get the 4.5 kernel. The new kernel is: vmlinuz-4.5.0-4.gece3ff2-default How do I fix the signature file? Thanks, Allen Wilkinson +++++++ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bugzilla - a question
by ianseeks 27 Mar '16

27 Mar '16

Someone mentioned in the KDEPIM list that bugs can sit here "unnoticed" for years. Is there anyway of looking at a bug in bugzilla to check if any of the people assigned to look at it have actually read it other than them actually making a comment on it or changing the bug status?

proposal: change login method for paste.opensuse.org and img.susepaste.org because "OpenID" does not work..AT ALL!! maybe use "login.microfocus.com" (used for Suse studio and opensuse sites) or use: https://secure-www.novell.com/openid/user/xxxxx or other authentication site.... for: http://paste.opensuse.org/ http://img.susepaste.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] wicked + VPN
by Tom Kacvinsky 26 Mar '16

26 Mar '16

I have been trying to find documentation on how I can set up OpenVPN and IPSec VPNs using wicked, but haven’t had any luck. Does anyone have any pointers on how to do this? I’d like a GUI if possible, but from what I have read so far, a GUI is a TBD feature. Or an I better off switching back to NetworkConfig for now?

I mentioned two options: 1) copy to self of own posts And 2) Do you want the list-server to _suppress_ the copy to you (that would come through the list-address) even if it detects that you were explicitly in the To or Cc lines? You answered "yes" though your explanation supports a "no" [to suppressing] answer. I.e. it sounds like we do the same thing for similar (though maybe slightly different reasons). -l -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
