The first one is one byte only per char, the second is variable multibyte. You can match a small subset of the second with the first.

You have to examine the /tmp/examine_me.eml file, see if it is suitable for "mail" command, perhaps change it by changing the code that generates it... Maybe you only need it generating the proper "Content-Type" header, or recode the text to match, as Bernhard says. > On the malformatted email, the postfix log output looks OK Postfix doesn't alter or translate the mail. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] WinTV HVR 1110 No Picture (sort of)
by Paul Groves 07 Aug '17

07 Aug '17

Hi, I have a Win TV HVR 1110 PCI Hybrid Analogue/Digital Tuner and I am having some trouble. I spent some time wondering why I could not get any picture and video. I had to install the linux-firmware-nonfree package. This has fixed it and I can now hear the audio from the stereo phono input but no picture (using VLC player). So I then put a VHS tape in the VCR (connected to S-video). It played audio but no picture. Same problem via composite. So I installed TV Time (as recommended by a quick internet search) and I can play the s-video and composite ports with a picture but it is very very grainy. This is not the case when I connect the VCR to the TV. The picture is perfect. So I then tuned into freeview using VLC only to find no picture but sound working fine. I tried and all the channels are shown under Media > Programme. All channels on all of our local muxes play audio but no picture. Just a black screen. So, why does TV time show a picture but VLC does not? Is there a setting I have to change? Why is the picture in TV Time so grainy? I tried setting to PAL and NTSC but it made no difference. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem with NFS mount
by don fisher 07 Aug '17

07 Aug '17

I have two systems which I believe are identical. One system will mount the other with no problem. The second system will NFS mount itself, but generates the following error when attempting to mount an external system: mount.nfs: res_query.c:262: __libc_res_nquery: Assertion `(hp != ((void *)0)) && (hp2 != ((void *)0))' failed. I have executed both the NFS Server and NFS Client scripts on both machines. I also receive: systemd-fstab-generator[2988]: Checking was requested for "/home", but it is not a device in dmesg on both machines. messages on both machines. The lines ion my fstab are: dfpc50:/ /mnt/dfpc50 nfs rw,user,dev,exec,noauto,soft,timeo=10,retrans=10,bg,intr,retry=5,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 0 0 dfpc50:/home /mnt/dfpc50_home nfs rw,user,dev,exec,noauto,soft,timeo=10,retrans=10,bg,intr,retry=5,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 0 0 The lines in /etc/exports are: / 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,no_all_squash) /home 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,no_all_squash) All this appears to work going one way, but not the other. Any ideas on what the problem is, or what (hp != ((void *)0)) && (hp2 != ((void *)0)) would signify?

[opensuse] new issue with 42.3 oss repo
by George from the tribe 07 Aug '17

07 Aug '17

So, as I wrote on the other thread, here is something new that came up. I am trying to install a limited version of 42.3 in a virtual machine, and there was a problem with one of the repositories. It was the OSS repository at this location: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.3/repo/oss/ Specifically, whenever it would get to this file, it would time out: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.3/repo/oss/suse/setup/des… I couldn't get it to get past this. So I followed Carlos' suggestion from my other thread, and in the repos.d file for this, I changed it to the following mirror: http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/openSUSE/distribution/leap/42.3/repo/oss/ Then I ran zypper ref and it all updated. I have since changed it back to the original, and zypper ref works now. Is there anything wrong with what I did here? On 07/26/2017 01:59 AM, Carlos E.

[opensuse] 42.3: Missing libjpeg pkgconfig

Hi, Just installed a new 42.3 system, and wanted to compile some of our software on it. Unfortunately I get shuttle2: # zypper se --provides 'pkgconfig(libjpeg)' No matching items found. TW would offer libjpeg62-devel and libjpeg8-devel. Why don't the leap dev packages contain a libjpeg.pc?
