[opensuse] grub2 boot screen misses an OS

by Stephen Berman

I have a computer with two hard disks, on one of which both openSUSE 42.2 and 13.2 are installed and on the other a different GNU/Linux system (Linux From Scratch); on booting, the grub2 boot screen (which comes from os42.2) showed all three systems -- till yesterday, after I updated os42.2 for the first time in around a week; after rebooting only os42.2 and os13.2 were listed on the boot screen. I also manually ran `grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' from os42.2 and the output also showed just the two openSUSE systems. I noticed that among yesterday's updates were grub2 and os-prober, presumably grub2-2.02~beta2-94.3.1.x86_64.rpm from 08-May-2017 and os-prober-1.61-20.3.1.x86_64.rpm from 06-May-2017. Has anyone else run into this problem? Could either of those updates have caused it?

[opensuse] Realtek RTL8811AU

by Mikhail Ramendik

Hello, What's the driver support situation in leap 42.2 for USB Wi-Fi dongles with the RTL8811AU chipset? There are lots of cheap dongles like that available from China, and I'm thinking of getting one of them. -- 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] Virtualbox extensions

by James Knott

When installing Oracle Virtualbox, using files downloaded from Oracle, it is necessary to install the virtual box package, extensions and guest additions. In the openSUSE version, there are virtualbox, desktop icons, host kernel and virtualbox-qt. Is there anything that includes the extensions? I downloaded the guest additions from Oracle. The reason I'm asking is that when I use the openSUSE packages, I can't use USB 2, only 1.1. I could use USB 2 previously, when using the packages from Oracle. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] systemd "ipsec.service" under OpenSUSE Leap 42.1 times-out when stopped

Hi, I installed Libreswan 3.20 to OpenSUSE Leap 42.1(systemd v210).

[opensuse] eject behaviour in Leap?

by Dave Howorth

If I plug a device (camera as it happens) into my Leap 42.1 PC, it mounts fine at /run/media/my-username/4DIG-IHEX/ where my-username and 4DIG-IHEX match my username and presumably some hardware dependent ID respectively. So far so good. When the time comes that I've finished with the camera I type $ eject /run/media/my-username/4DIG-IHEX which used to be the preferred thing to do, AIUI, (with the then current path, anyway). But now it says: umount: /run/media/my-username/4DIG-IHEX: umount failed: Operation not permitted Looking at the permisssions I see: $ ls -la /run/media/my-username/4DIG-IHEX drwxr-xr-x 5 my-username users 32768 Jan 1 1970 ./ drwxr-x---+ 6 root root 120 May 16 22:14 ../ and I have to unmount the device as root. So what's wrong? Should I be using some different command to eject the device? If root has to unmount it, why is it automatically mounted by my-username and inaccessible to anybody else?

[opensuse] Is anyone having issues with fdisk making partitions bigger than the physical drive?

by Greg Freemyer

Details: from Leap 42.2 - Using a Sata-USB bridge Insert a brand new 1TB drive - no partition table - Use fdisk to partition the drive, accept default parameters for partition 1 and let it fill 99.9% of the drive - write out the partition table Use fdisk to see if the partition table is okay: > sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 931.5 GiB, 1000204883968 bytes, 1953525164 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x095da008 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 2048 1953525167 1953523120 931.5G 83 Linux ======================================================== Looks normal to me. But look at the total sector count for the drive and the end sector of the partition. 1953525167 > 1953525164, so the partition extends past the end of the physical drive?

[opensuse] Fwd: Problem with recent MySQL update, bsc#1020976, permissions on /var/run/mysql, cannot connect to MySQL

by Glen

The recent update to mysql-community-server-5.6.36-24.3.3.x86_64 introduced a change to /usr/lib/mysql/mysql-systemd-helper: # diff mysql-systemd-helper.old mysql-systemd-helper 168a169,171 > # set the default umask bsc#1020976 > umask 077 After this update, and a subsequent serve reboot, the permissions on /var/run/mysql (wherein lives the mysql.sock socket) changed from 0755 to 0700. This promptly caused all of the application software and programs on my servers which communicate with MySQL to fail, with an "unable to connect" error. chmod 755 /var/run/mysql fixed the immediate connection problem, and a very hacky change to systemd: # diff mysql.service.old mysql.service 13a14 > ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/chmod 755 /var/run/mysql has made it persist between reboots.... for now. I have read https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2017-04/msg00036.html, which says: > This non-security issue was fixed: > - Set the default umask to 077 in rc.mysql-multi [bsc#1020976] So, I am trying to understand why this change was made (since I don't want to revert something deemed an issue) and what the correct response to this change should be. Should all my apps have "just worked anyway?" Is nobody else experiencing problems? Should I be doing something differently? The programs I run were written by different teams, and run on different servers, and they *all* failed with this patch. I can't believe that I'm the only one affected by this, and am seeking to understand what I'm doing wrong that caused all my software to get tripped up by this change, and what the most correct fixes would be to compensate/adjust on my end. Guidance, pointers, redirects all solicited and gratefully accepted! Thanks so much!

[opensuse] how to remove extra grub from a tertiary disk?

by listreader

I have a machine with a third / add-on controller. On that controller there is a drive that has a copy of an old windows OS that I need to keep. When I boot normally from my primary drive, grub2 currently offers a boot option for that tertiary drive partition as a 'windows loader' and if I choose it I go right into that windows OS. That's fine. But, when I make that tertiary drive the boot drive (through bios selection) I don't go directly into that windows OS but instead get a grub from an old opensuse 12.3 installation. The 12.3 OS is gone but its grub is still there. So, question is, how do I get rid of that old extra grub on the tertiary disk and replace it with generic code so that it boots whatever the active partition is? FWIW, this machine has many OS installed but main OS boot is Leap 42.1 and DE is LXDE (gtk). Thanks in advance, especially if this is a dumb question :-/ Ralph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] wget and pid

by Istvan Gabor

Hello: I would like to use cron to start and stop wget commands using wget -q (quiet) and -b (background) options. For stopping the correct wget connect at given time I need to know its pid. wget -bq url runs like this: wget -b -q -O output-file url-address Continuing in background, pid 10874. I should somehow record the pid in a file and use it with the kill command, but I don't know how I could do it. Any help would be appreciated.
