All black screen, only cursor is seen but it is themed. Only the desktop is hit by this bug, sddm and the whole distribution itself works. It is possible to login on tty1 as any desired user. So, we can now indulge in ripping off our clothes and wine how bad plasma 5 is. Or we can try to find similarities and fix it. I go for the fix, others may continue to a "Greek tragedy". People are free. The system hit here, is one with Nvidia Graphics card. The rendering was set to openGL3.1 and the driver was the proprietary Nvidia driver. The settings where to not restore the last session but always start a fresh one. All the rest was "standard". Can you find any similarities in your hardware / openGL settings?

by jdd 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

Hello, I have no way to test this right now (hardware unavailable for some days), so this post. is it possible to build a working bootia32.efi 32 bits file for Leap using the instructions here: https://github.com/jfwells/linux-asus-t100ta/tree/master/boot I see nothing in this related to the running system (and it says "on any computer"), but I'm not that good on the subject :-( I try to make a bootable dvd for 32 bits uefi/64 bits processor systems thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] [opensuse-kde3] any KSpread (kde3-koffice-spreadsheet) users out there?
by Felix Miata 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

The reason for asking is I installed and started used it in 42.1 about 5 days ago, to accumulate data in one sheet. It's been growing almost continuously over these days to 18 or 20 columns and reached about 150 rows before I exited the program. While building I saved my work repeatedly, including just a minute or so before shutdown. I saved it only as a non-proprietary format, supposedly compatible with OpenOffice's spreadsheet program, .sxc. Now it needs rescue, if that's even possible. KOffice won't open it, reporting "The file seems to be corrupt. Skipping a table.", after which I click OK absent any alternative, resulting in another popup "Could not open <filename>. Reason: Internal Error.", then after dismissing that one, return to the same startup screen instead of any spreadsheet. I tried a new sheet then importing, but that results in the same error messages. I tried LibreOffice, but its proprietary file picker refuses to recognize the .sxc file. I booted a machine running 13.1 with KDE3, but its "older" KOffice won't recognize the .sxc either to open or to import. I booted a machine running 13.1 with TDE, but its KOffice also won't recognize the .sxc either to open or to import. According to https://software.opensuse.org/search, OpenOffice for openSUSE isn't available to try. Any suggestions? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse] installing package glibc-locale-2.19-16.18.1.x86_64 needs 39MB on the / filesystem
by Per Jessen 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

I'm upgrading an Intel Compute Stick - it started with a vanilla openSUSE 13.2. The root filesystem has about 7Gb, currently only 450Mb available. During zypper patch I get this: Installation of glibc-locale-2.19-16.18.1 failed: Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: installing package glibc-locale-2.19-16.18.1.x86_64 needs 39MB on the / filesystem To test it, I created a 39MB file in /tmp, so what is the real problem? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Is my ISP blacklisted?
by Basil Chupin 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

If you read this post and know the answer would you please reply to me by private mail and not via this list. I have not received any mail from any of the oS mail list for the past 4 days but I see in the archives that there have been messages posted each day. >From this I deduce that my ISP has -- again! -- been blacklisted my someone but is not aware of this blacklisting. Someone here posted a while back an URL which gives a list of ISP which have been blacklisted but I did not take a note of this URL. If you know what this URL is would you please send this info to me (via private mail) so that I confirm that my ISP has been listed and then get my ISP to 'get its act together' and get unblacklisted.
