[opensuse] Program to print a batch of photos?
by Carlos E. R. 01 Jun '17

01 Jun '17

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I wonder if there is a program to print a batch of photos and specify how many per page. Say, print 4 photos per page from this file list. Just fine a CLI to convert to PDF. What I usually do, is insert the photos in a LibreOffice write document. I prepare a table with lines (which serve later as guides for cutting) and each cell I fill with a single photo. But maybe there is something more automatic? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Youtube problems
by James Knott 01 Jun '17

01 Jun '17

In the past week or so, I've noticed a problem with Youtube in that many videos will no longer play. I now get the dot going around in a circle, but no video. This even happens with videos I had previously watched. It happens with Firefox, Chrome and Seamonkey browsers. However, they work fine on Windows 10 in a VirtualBox VM. I'm running 42.2 & KDE and the problem happens on both my desktop and notebook computers. Has anyone else experienced this? tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] How can I get the external IP on a script?
by Carlos E. R. 01 Jun '17

01 Jun '17

Hi, In order to get the external IP on a script I used (Dec 2015) this one liner: wget -qO - checkip.dyndns.org | cut -d":" -f2 | cut -d"<" -f1 and this is failing now (returns empty), but I'm unable (ie, too thick today) to see why. The output of the wget run is: cer@minas-tirith:~> wget -qO - checkip.dyndns.org <html><head><title>Current IP Check</title></head><body>Current IP Address: 2.141.215.163</body></html> cer@minas-tirith:~> Something has changed, no idea what. Meanwhile, looking on google, I got another simpler oneliner (from https://coderwall.com/p/lmi2jw/get-external-ip-in-a-script) curl http://icanhazip.com they also suggest using http://ifconfig.me/ip instead, but it fails: cer@minas-tirith:~> curl http://icanhazip.com 2.141.215.163 cer@minas-tirith:~> curl http://checkip.dyndns.org cer@minas-tirith:~> curl http://ifconfig.me/ip cer@minas-tirith:~> All sites work on a browser, but only http://icanhazip.com works on the CLI with curl. Why? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))

Someone suggested tell you to check if flashplayer is installed. Another person on the Spanish mail list comments a very strange but similar problem he has with youtube, this time using Windows, with chrome or Firefox. IE still works. Fails when he uses the network of the site he is at, accessing his client network with his given login. Any variation and it works again, like taking the laptop to another place, or using his login on another computer. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
