[opensuse] European HAMNET - use of 44/8.
by Per Jessen 28 May '16

28 May '16

This is really OT, but as I mentioned it here very briefly - this is a very interesting presentation: http://www.tapr.org/pdf/DCC2014-TheEuropeanHAMNET-DG8NGN.pdf Makes me almost want to go active again, though I guess I would need to convert to an HB callsign. Amazing to think that there is an entire class A network in private hands. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (26.9°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

The other end has to be able to reach your phone. What address does it use? And how does it get it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Law suits are normally public so there are public documents describing the lawsuit and sometimes saying I was hired. I'd guess my highest profile case was Cisco vs Michael Lynn. Cisco stock dropped a couple billion USD one day, I was hired the next. The event in question was in the Wall street journal.

Yes mention of NAT comes up and when it does, again, > quite explicitly STUN is to be "blank". And you're absolutely 100% positive these devices are behind a NAT router? Then they must have keep-alive enabled. Anoton, your NAT router maintains a map/table of connections - internal addresses, external addresses and port numbers. Unused connections are flushed after a while. Unless the device uses STUN or keep-alive, that table will not maintain the needed information to know where to direct an incoming call. Maybe check your config for "NAT Keep Alive". The screenshot is from my SPA2102 which connects directly to asterisk. /Per

[opensuse] security patch 2016-629 kernel NO KEY error

I was trying to run a zypper patch, and when it went to download kernel 4.5.0-9.1, it says NOKEY. It started like this: ----------------- # zypper lp Retrieving repository ...

[opensuse] What the hell happened to Novell Bugzilla? The MicroFocus Reporting form is Garbage
by David C. Rankin 26 May '16

26 May '16

All, Am I at the right place or has bugzilla.novell been hijacked? I'm at http://support.novell.com/additional/bugreport.html?ref=h and this form is crap. This isn't even a place for release or component input. I don't mean to rant, but this looks more like a generic trouble ticket entry form rather than a software bug report. Is there a way to reach the old bug interface?? -- David C.

[opensuse] kde start submenu hangs
by Istvan Gabor 26 May '16

26 May '16

Hello: This has been a long standing issue but I didn't deal with it until now. I don't know if it is related to my other problem with right clicking. This occurs in openSUSE 13.1 with KDE3. When I navigate in the kicker's main menu to Office/Document Viewer submenu the system hangs. I found the kicker is the culprit, it uses 100% CPU. When I use kde menu editor (kmenuedit) and try to open Office/Document Viewer menu, the system also hangs. In this case kmenuedit uses 100% CPU. How could I trace why the menu cannot be opened and causes hangup? I guess there can be some problem with .menu, .desktop or .directory files which build up the xdg menu system, bit how to find which one is the culprit?

[opensuse] Leap 42.1 - disconnected NFS connection hangs boot - Forever...
by David C. Rankin 26 May '16

26 May '16

All, A friend had a leap laptop that was stuck trying to boot and couldn't figure out why. Just 3-dots in a chevron toggling back and forth endlessly. He said it used to work and he liked the interface, but couldn't figure out why. Cancelling the login graphics (not something the 1st time user was aware of) disclosed the problem -- activating NFS (34m 58 sec no-limit) WTF? 'no-limit'??? This poor guy had been trying to boot his laptop for the past day and a half. He said he had to pull the batter out to shut it down because he couldn't reboot and when he would try to boot again it would just get stuck.... I'm sure there was an easier way to fix the issue, but I just edited the grub2 kernel boot line to boot to run-level 1 equivalent, chrooted the system under /mnt, disabled NFS with systemctl and rebooted. This time the laptop hung at the same spot with: -- activating NFS_B (31 sec 1:36) which thankfully timed out at 1:36 and completed the boot. Obviously what happened is the guy had previously connected to a NAS box via NFS and the boot was attempting to reconnect, but what caused the timeout of 'no-limit' to be set for NFS, and why did disabling NFS in systemd cause NFS_B to attempt connection?? Is the 'no-limit' something that must be user set, or is this some default in leap? Let me know your thoughts and whether this should be filed as a bug (it probably should), I can't think of any situation where you should have an indefinite timeout on a service activated during boot??? -- David C.

[opensuse] Reliable source for extra and home repository keys?
by Bjoern Voigt 24 May '16

24 May '16

Is there a reliable source for verifying the PGP keys for extra and home repositories of the openSUSE build service? Not all keys can be found in the public key servers (like https://sks-keyservers.net/i/). Where else can I find them all?
