[opensuse] How to switch off narration in kaffeine tv
by Eddie 16 Aug '17

16 Aug '17

I find the narration in kaffeine very irritating. It is set as default and thus I get narration on stuff that I record. Does anyone know how to change the default in kaffeine so that I can switch off the narration? I've found a config file, config.dvb in ~/.kde4/share/apps/kaffeine Does anyone what syntax I can use to turn off narration?

[opensuse] Need random password generator for KDE/5
by Anton Aylward 16 Aug '17

16 Aug '17

Back in the days of KDE4 on 13.2 I had this: https://store.kde.org/p/1001951/ and found it useful. I'm now on leap 42.2 and KDE5 (etc yamma yamma etc, you know the rest) and it doesn't seem to upgraded/available. I realise there are a number of on-line random password generators, and I do have one on my cell phone, but I'd really like that widget or an equivalent. Other than bugging the author of the above 9and he's been inactive a VERY long time so I wouldn't expect a response), are there any suggestions/alternatives OTS? -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Thank you Marcus, Simon, Bengt, Andreas, It's those little oversights that kill me. I had the files listed, but not the directories. I've made the additions and all packages 13.1 - Leap 42.3 built just fine. Thanks again, -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

No answers on factory, So I'll post here as well.

[opensuse] What package provides glibc <sys/random.h>?
by David C. Rankin 15 Aug '17

All, openSuSE install of glibc doesn't provide the /usr/include/sys/random.h header. What package does? e.g. http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/getrandom.2.html On Arch $ pmqo /usr/include/sys/random.h /usr/include/sys/random.h is owned by glibc 2.25-7 Where is it on openSuSE?

[opensuse] Leap 42.3 and Grub 2 Mess
by Robin Klitscher 14 Aug '17

14 Aug '17

This is a multi-boot machine with several versions of openSUSE and Windows 7. Four hard drives partitioned appropriately, legacy BIOS, not UEFI. To install Leap 42.3 I did what has worked for me successfully for more than ten years - cleared space by formatting where an older version had been and installing afresh in those spaces, with Grub2 in the MBR. This time it didn't work. Or, more accurately, Grub 2 doesn't work. I can boot into any of the systems using a Super Grub 2 CDROM, so the installation(s) themselves work OK, but that external boot procedure becomes a pain in the backside. When I try to boot direct from the hard drive(s) I get the following: error: no such device: <a partition UUID number> Entering rescue mode grub rescue> The first line means what it says. Booting to any of the systems and running blkid shows that the UUID cited in the error message doesn't exist on the system. I've no idea how it got there, but it did. I can make available the results of bootinfoscript, but that might not be necessary. It appears to confirm that Grub2 is expecting to find its files at the same non-existent UUID as in the error message above. The question seems to be, therefore, is there a way of pointing Grub2 at a valid UUID; and if so, how can I do this? -- Robin K Wellington "Harbour City" New Zealand -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Missing ASUS keyboard backlight file
by Marc Chamberlin 14 Aug '17

14 Aug '17

Hi, I have a script that once worked which gave me the ability to turn on or off the keyboard backlight for my ASUS laptop. (I had it working under Leap 42.1 x64) But now it is whining about a missing file, and I wonder if anyone can help me find the poor lost thing? I am running Leap42.2 x64 with a KDE/Plasma 5 desktop. The error message I get is - ./asuskbd_bklight.sh on root's password: tee: '/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight/brightness': No such file or directory That should be enough info, the script itself is not very complicated but if anyone wants to see it I can certainly provide it. (I got it off the internet somewhere awhile ago....) Anyone got any idea where '/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight/brightness' is hiding? FYI - >ls /sys/class/leds/ input0::capslock input11::capslock input11::numlock input9::compose input9::scrolllock input0::numlock input11::compose input11::scrolllock input9::kana phy0-led input0::scrolllock input11::kana input9::capslock input9::numlock >lsmod |grep asus asus_nb_wmi 24576 0 asus_wmi 32768 1 asus_nb_wmi sparse_keymap 16384 1 asus_wmi rfkill 28672 11 cfg80211,bluetooth,asus_wmi wmi 16384 1 asus_wmi video 45056 1 asus_wmi Thanks in advance, Marc... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
