[opensuse] dhcpd on Leap 42.3
by Roger Oberholtzer 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

Has dhcpd been depreciated for Leap 42.3? I see that the Leap docs claim it is the one to use. But I do not see it for Leap 42.3 (as an official package). https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/reference/html/book.opensuse.re… https://software.opensuse.org/package/dhcpcd -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] komparator
by gumb 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

Anybody know of an alternative program to Komparator with very similar functionality? https://sourceforge.net/projects/komparator/ A GUI application with the ability to analyze two directories side by side, show missing files, newer files, duplicate files, compare MD5 checksums, copy from one pane to the other, and more. Note: This is not to be confused with the Kompare utility which shows the content of two text-based FILES side by side. And I'm not really after any of the myriad sync utilities unless they also perform the same *comparison* functions of Komparator. Syncing directories is not my principal concern, it's the more comprehensive side-by-side analysis that is particularly useful. It still works under my 42.2 install but hasn't been updated in years, and I fear given the desire of KDE to drop anything that hasn't been converted to Frameworks 5 it probably won't function come the Leap 15 release series. I use this program regularly - it's incredibly handy, particularly since I can feed it a URL via SSH to a folder on a network machine. gumb -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Leap 42.3
by Robert Schweikert 18 Sep '17

18 Sep '17

Hi, Not even sure as to how to describe the issue or where to start looking. What is happening appears to be an issue with oom or process limits, but I have no idea how to nail this down. My work habbits have not changed, meaning compared to when I was running Leap 42.2 I have a many browser tabs open as before, a lot, and as many terminal and editor windows open as well, again, a lot of those. The symptoms I am seeing are - systemd-coredump process running off and on and when it runs it sucks up 100% cpu - I get "no more process" errors when trying to open a new terminal window - Rhythembox appears to be the mos frequent victim and it gets killed or dies dmesg does not have any "trace" information, but there is a message pointing to some kind of trouble: [178155.684433] Corrupted low memory at ffff880000004000 (4000 phys) = 002777f2 Anyway, the whole thing is annoying and I'd sure like to figure out what's going on. Thoughts? Thanks, Robert -- Robert Schweikert MAY THE SOURCE BE WITH YOU Distinguished Architect LINUX Team Lead Public Cloud rjschwei(a)suse.com IRC: robjo

[opensuse] rename wlan1 to wlan0?
by Mikhail Ramendik 17 Sep '17

17 Sep '17

Hello, After changing my active wireless card, I found that while everything works, I have a wlan1 and no wlan0. How do I change the name of the interface to wlan0? Yast does not seem to offer a change in Network settings.

[opensuse] logrotate
by Peter Suetterlin 17 Sep '17

17 Sep '17

Hi list, looking through my disk usage I realized /var/log uses 2GB :o and what do I see? woodstock:/var/log # ls -lh zypper.log -rw-r----- 1 root root 1.6G Sep 13 14:23 zypper.log why isn't it rotated/compressed? Ah: this is now handled by systemd instead of cron, and disabled by default :( woodstock:/var/log # systemctl status logrotate ● logrotate.service - Rotate log files Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/logrotate.service; static; vendor preset: disabled) Not sure if that is a sane choice for a TW system that typically has several 'zypper dup' per week. The 1.6GB is the logs from just one year... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] "My Thinkpad, Nouveau and Me"
by Basil Chupin 17 Sep '17

17 Sep '17

I am the proud owner of a Thinkpad model T530 on which I boldly installed Leap 42.3. The installation naturally installed the nouveau driver for the graphics nVidia chip soldered onto the motherboard. However, I want to install a proper nVidia driver to replace the 'nooovooo' driver but I am totally perplexed about which driver I should use. I tried installing the latest 384.69 driver but somehow this did not go down well (no hassles with installing it on the Desktop...) and ended up having to re-install 42.3 from scratch. The chip on the Thinkpad has mysterious numbering on it such as GF108M, NVS 5400M and Ivybridge Mobile. I have looked up 'giggle' for info but I only got more confused. I know that there is one person on this list who is a guru re Thinkpads and I would dearly love to hear from him re my "problem" or from anyone else who may be of help to moi.

[opensuse] google-chrome and keys
by Mikhail Ramendik 16 Sep '17

16 Sep '17

Hello, I can't get normal updating to work again, "trust relationship not present". So I ran zypper up and got: File 'repomd.xml' from repository 'google-chrome' is signed with an unknown key '1397BC53640DB551'. Continue? [yes/no] (no): I googled chrome keys and tried to get them in: wget https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub # rpm --import linux_signing_key.pub I still get the same problem. How do I make zypper see the right key? -- 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] Reading LTO cartridge memory
by Paul Groves 16 Sep '17

16 Sep '17

Does anyone have a clue how to read the cartridge memory from an LTO tape? Surely there must exist a command to do such a thing. I want to add into my script the ability to read the serial number / cartridge usage to be included in my log files. Also, how do I set the barcode tag on the cartridge? I would also like to do this in a script. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
