[opensuse] upgraded 42.2 to 42.3, now have black screen.

by Per Jessen

With 42.2 having gone EOL last week, I figured my office test system ought to be upgraded to 42.3 too - not much chance of anything being fixed on 42.2 anymore. So I ran a 'zypper dup' which seemed to go fine - except a) nfs mounts don't work. I can't mount them manually either. b) instead of a GUI login screen, I get a black screen with a mouse pointer. I can probably figure (a) out in time, but I'm a little stuck with (b). I'm using the Nvidia drivers, they worked fine on 42.2. Suggestions on how to proceed with (b) much welcome. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] These packages need to be selected to install?

I have just started a fresh 42.3 install on my test desktop - I know I can't deselect grub2, but now I get this message: > These packages need to be selected to install: SuSEfirewall2, ntfs-3g, > ntfsprogs > Please manually select the needed items to install.

[opensuse] Leap 42.3 old TeXlive, old Circuitikz 0.6

by SFseis .

Hello, my first question to the mailing list: I just installed Leap 42.3 and noticed that my Latex files won't compile anymore because of an outdated Circuitkz 0.6 (2016-6-6), current is 0.8.3 (2017-5-28) and I need at least 0.8.2 (2017-5-1). What can I do? Can I just install Texlive from TW repository? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] zypp repo types

by Felix Miata

Author of http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::12155 claims following instructions on https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/OpenSUSE_Trinity_Repository_Installation_In… fail. I responded at http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::12160 I noticed that in my own TDE repos, one is type rpm-md, the other type yum. What exactly are the differences among the possible zypp types? "No manual entry for repos.d". Looking at https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Zypper_manual_%28plain%29 the type yum on the instruction page seems maybe not to be a valid type??? -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.

[opensuse] YaST Problem

Does anyone has any idea where this may be coming from, and how to solve it, as YaST won't work...

[opensuse] openSUSE 42.3 on AWS

by Mark Petersen

Back in August of 2017, it was announced that Leap 42.3 would be available in the AWS Marketplace. https://news.opensuse.org/2017/08/22/opensuse-leap-42-3-cloud-images-become… Since then I have periodically checked, but there is no Leap 42.3 AMI available. Support is ending for Leap 42.2 at the end of this week. I was able to upgrade a Leap 42.2 instance to 42.3 and it does seem to work, but I get nervous that at some point a kernel update will render the instance unbootable. There is very little activity on the opensuse-cloud list, so I don't see much use in joining and posting to it. So, does anybody have an idea of who to "bump"? Thanks.

[opensuse] Tumbleweed on VMs

by Tom Kacvinsky

I have need to set up Tumbleweed on a VM. I am using Parallels for macOS (that's my daily driver for administrative tasks, from there I jump to my Linux boxes, or use a VM). What I find is that I can log in as root, but as myself, it accepts the password, but does not log me in. I checked the usual files (/var/log/messages, dmesg output, /var/log/audit/audit.log, and the Xorg log file), but didn't see anything why the GUI wouldn't fire for me. Any ideas? Has anyone seen this with KVM? Just trying to narrow down if it is a problem with Tumbleweed on VMs in general, or just Parallels.

[opensuse] Sugared foods forbidden in Andalussian schools

by Carlos E. R.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The regional governement of Andalussia (Spain) has forbidden sugared drinks and food (like coca-cola and donuts) from being sold at any school cafeteria in their territory, under fines reaching 250000€ (or closing the place temporarily). At last! :-) And they must offer free water. The list of regulations I read in the article is complex and I don't understand all the implications and how they are going to do it, but I suppose there will be oposition. To put in context, the party governing there is socialist (not communist, more like liberals) and has been in power maybe since the first regional elections, if memory servers right, so maybe not :-) <http://www.publico.es/sociedad/andalucia-prohibe-vender-coca-cola-bollycao-…> - -- Cheers Carlos E.
