[opensuse] Application:Geo and openSUSE:Backports
by Martin Pluskal 21 Jul '16

21 Jul '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello In near future (~2 weeks), we would like to replace SLE-12 and SLE-12- SP build targets/repositories in Application:Geo [1] with openSUSE:Backports:SLE-12 and openSUSE:Backports:SLE-12-SP1 [2]. This has some advantages - common build dependencies shared with other projects, which are not present in SLE can be placed in one common project (openSUSE:Backports) so that: * we can avoid package conflicts * have some additional review/increased quality with reduced effort * reduce need of project maintainers to check which package is linked where and if its still needed. What does it mean for you if you are using Application:Geo and: * are using Tumleweed or Leap - nothing changes at all * are using SLE-12* - you will have to replace Application:Geo/SLE_12 with Application:Geo/SLE_12_Backports or Application:Geo/SLE_12_SP1 with Application:Geo/SLE_12_SP1_Backports and add corresponding backports repository. We are also preparing to push gdal and its dependencies to openSUSE:Backports project. Apart from this, SLE-11-SP4 repo/build target is also going to be removed as most packages were failing to build anyway. 13.1 will stay until end of community support for Evergreen (November 2016). In case of questions feel free to ask.

[opensuse] about ffmpeg: is it possible to remove intervals?
by Carlos E. R. 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm asking because the manual is long and complex, so I may have missed it. I know how to extract one section from a video stream. If there are start and end marks, I can cut that "in" with -ss 00:10 -t 00:10:00 (time, duration). input ------------<-------------------------------------->----------- output -------------------------------------- What I wonder is if there is a method to also remove a section in the middle. Say, from a movie with commercials. Yes, I know there are other tools, but unfortunately ffmpeg is the only tool that works on this particular source of streams. The only idea I have is to produce multiple chunks and then join them, somehow. I haven't worked out this method yet. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Plasma debug symbols?
by Mikhail Ramendik 17 Jul '16

17 Jul '16

Hello, I had a sudden Plasma crash yesterday, complete with the monitor getting stuck in SLeep mode for a few minutes. KDE failed to send an automatic bug report because it had no debug symbols and could not install them. How do I install debug symbols, so that if the crash repeats a bug report can be sent? I tried yast and could not find an applicable package. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] K3b (Version 2.9.90+git20160111.2358-11.7-x86_64 - packman) and ISO burning
by ianseeks 17 Jul '16

17 Jul '16

HI I've been trying to burn a iso of Windows 7 i downloaded but it just opens the window to say its its preparing and the progress does not go any further than 0%. It has caused some strange performance issues. if i load system monitor, it shows "kuiserver" upto 30%+ cpu and i've also had a systemd_coredump (i think that was what it was called). I've sometimes had to use Ctrl Backspace to kill the session to log out. I was just wondering if anyone else is having this problems with this version from packman.

[opensuse] cannot open KDE session anymore
by Frédéric Bron 17 Jul '16

17 Jul '16

Hi, I cannot open a KDE session anymore. I enter my login+password and then nothing happens, the computer is blocked. With Ctrl+Alt+F1, I can switch to text mode root session and see that the following processes are running for my user account: systemd, (sd-pam), dbus-laun..., dbus-daem..., at-spi-bu..., dbus-daem..., at-spi2-r... What does that mean? The other accounts work well. Regards, Frédéric -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] external speakers OK in 13.1, 13.2, TW; but NOT in 42.1
by Felix Miata 17 Jul '16

17 Jul '16

SFF Dell Optiplex 780 has an internal speaker that's supposed to work only if the external speaker jack is not occupied. It works as expected in 13.1, 13.2, TW installed to HD, and in Knoppix 7.6.1 DVD with kernel 4.2.6. 42.1 behaves as though the external speaker jack is not occupied, producing sound from aplay and speaker-test only from the internal speaker, not loud enough to hear unless nothing else in the room is making any sound, and then barely so. This is so with 42.1 kernels 4.1.15, 4.1.21 and 4.1.27, and with TW's 4.6.3 kernel. Content of /etc/modprobe.d/ seems to be identical between TW and 42.1 except that 42.1 has a 50-sound.conf file that TW does not, which if present during boot, causes no such device-type errors trying to use speaker-test and aplay with no parameters, and changes output of /proc/asound/cards to 1 instead of 0. VOODOO - making 50-sound.conf visible, rebooting, testing with -Dplughw:1 made external speakers work. Then removing 50-sound.conf visibility and rebooting again, made sound work one boot with either -Dplughw:0 or no option at all. Then I removed the TW kernel, rebooted, and found it was back to using the internal speaker. Next I tried configuring the sound card with Yast's quick automatic method. It created a new 50-sound.conf file. I rebooted. No change, so I redid it with normal setup method. Sound remains on the internal speaker. Besides creating 50-sound.conf, what did Yast actually do. How does one proceed to find a solution? Is this a case for filing a bug? http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/421/ contains: 1: alsa-info-gx780-s421.txt is output from alsa-info.sh with output of 'lsmod | grep snd' and a selected short list of installed sound rpms appended 2: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/421/snd-gx780-stwk3.txt contains from TW: a.list of files in /etc/modprobe.d b.aplay -l output c.aplay -v /usr/share/sounds/alsa/text.wav 3: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/421/snd-gx780-s421tde.txt contains from 42.1: d.list of files in /etc/modprobe.d e.content of /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf f.aplay -l output g.aplay -v /usr/share/sounds/alsa/text.wav -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse] xrdp server questions
by Greg Freemyer 16 Jul '16

16 Jul '16

All, I do 80% of my openSUSE work at the command line the last few years, so I have little X/KDE/Gnome experience. What little GUI activity I have is in openSUSE VMs that I use to experiment with and none of it remote. I setup a Leap 42.2 test machine with nice new desktop PC hardware.. I decided to access it via RDP from my windows laptop. After installing the xrdp server and starting the service, it is working great in general. The only surprises so far are: - I can log into the machine with multiple simultaneous logins (3 at once so far). I can login as me at the main console, and from 2 Windows PCs simultaneously. Each login is unique. That is perfectly fine. - Among those 3 concurrent login sessions, I can only launch one instance of Firefox total. If I try to launch it from a second session I get an error: ("Firefox is already running and is not responding ...."). Is that a long-term well known bug? Or is it a bug unique to Leap 42.2? - I keep getting a dialog box asking for the root password. It seems related to a background check for security updates. "Authorization is required to refresh the system sources." The application's vendor is "The PackageKit Project". It provides PIDs too if that is helpful. Is that just because I'm using XRDP, or is there a bug?

[opensuse] Cura and Repetier for SuSE 13.1 ? Other 3D printer software with SuSE 13.1?
by MarkusGMX 16 Jul '16

16 Jul '16

I was trying to put Cura ( https://ultimaker.com/en/products/cura-software ) onto my SuSE 13.1 system, found out that there is only a fedora rpm thing, had to install mock from fedora, just to finally realise that it all fails because of missing createrepo_c which is not available for SuSE 13.1 according to https://software.opensuse.org/package/createrepo_c :-( Is there any way to get official packages for Cura and Repetier for SuSE 13.1 ? (I've only seen untrusted versions here: https://software.opensuse.org/package/Cura ) Which other 3D printer software can I use with SuSE 13.1 ? Thx in advance ME -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
