[opensuse] Project management software question for project managers
by Ted Byers 29 May '24

29 May '24

I am looking for project management software I can install on my Suse box. Alas, there are quite a number of prducts that claim to be suitable project management products, but I am hoping to obtain a little help separating the wheat from the chaffe. Basically, when I open the project management software, I want to be able to choose from among a number of projects that are under way, and then see the relation between a client's wish list and the functional requirements specs, and then how these specs relate to the UML diagrams that have been created, and from there, what tasks have been defined for each requirement and the identity of all persons involved, the developers and their managers, and the person who designed the code that supports the requirement. And with that, I want to be able to see the project's timeline, the related bugs, &c. I would even want to be able to open the source code files and examine the code that was actually written. Here is my wish list: 1) a web application that stores data in either PostgreSQL or MySQL. 2) easy integration with UML tool (or has it's own UML tool that supports round trip engineering) 3) resource management (e.g. computers, and development tools, that can be used, personelle assigned to each task) 4) documentation of relation between functional requirements specs to specific tasks and specific unit and integration tests. 5) time/effort tracking 6) bug tracking, including data relating the existance of the bug, and effort required to fix it, to the person who wrote the original code, the person who supervised him or her, and the person who designed the 'feature' in question, the time taken to complete the original task, and the technologies used (to imprrove accountability as well as to determine retraining and continuing education needs (people aren't disposable, so instead of taking a harsh aproach to problems identified, I prefer to use education as a corrective, but I can't design corrective instruction without knowing precisely what the need is). I also need to know if a developer has a higher than normal bug rate simply because he doesn't take enough time to ensure the job is done right, or because I haven't adequately trained him, or because of a poor choice of tools, or somethng else that may be my fault. 7) use of task effort tracking history to generate provisional effort/cost estimates from new project's functional requirements 8) easy integration with open source ERP products like OFBiz (which may make trakcing resources and manpower easier, as well as connect real production data to the enterprise's accounting systems) 9) easy integration with CMS products, like Wordpress (especally for production documentation, includng degin documentation and user guides and reference manuals) 10) easy integration with verion control systems such as subversion. If there is a decent product that supports all of this, great (and language used to implement it doesn't matter), but if I have to write code to add missing requirements, then I am limited to those implemented using Perl or Java (and running on Tomcat). I don't know PHP well enough, and I don't know Ruby at all; and I really don't want to think about implementing this sort of thing in C++ (though I could if absolutely necessary). If you have project management experience, and use tools that are available for Suse Linux, what software product(s) did you use, and with what result? While I await relies, I will continue to review web documentation for those products I have found so far, to see if any of them are a) suitable for use in production and b) to see to what extent they support the features I am after. I have seen a number of products so far in my search, that deserve to be nameless, because they provide no way to relate cost estimates to one's team's track record, or to the details of the design, and seem satisfied with production of a pretty gantt chart (which is why I have formed the view that there is a whole lots of chaffe in the set of applications that call themselves project menement software - I have yet to find anything that really has the potential of being labelled wheat).

Sorry SuSE: 9.1 is Waste of time and money!
by Terje J. Hanssen 17 May '24

17 May '24

I am sorry to conclude that my upgrade from SuSE 9.0 Pro to 9.1 Pro has been waste of time and money for me, so far. The same I have to say about the free SuSE "Installation support". The reason is that my SuSE 9.1 installation only detects 1 of my 3 SCSCI devices (as I wrote in another subject on this forum: http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2004-May/3254.html) Yamaha 4416S CDRW recorder detected HP DVD Writer 100i NOT detected Epson 1640SU scanner NOT detected It's rather stupid. I have installed 9.1 using the DVD disk just in the HP DVD drive, but after the installation of 9.1, the KDE/Konqueror /media/recorder cannot access it and YaST2 cannot install additional software from it. Only one "Cdrecorder" is found in My computer and that is the Yamaha 4416 drive, which the KDE/Konqueror file manager assign as /media/recorder11. I am sure 9.1 is the reason, as I hadn't this problems with 9.0. I have tried both an update and two several new installation of 9.1. Neither SJDS nor Windows on the same multiboot PC have problems to detect these devices. In my opinion SuSE should therefore debug 9.1 better and longer, and not leave the problems to the customers. I see SuSE notes on their web saying that they know SCSI scanners are not detected in 9.1. But regarding my HP DVD writer problem, the SuSE support (as usual) don't take the responsibility and argue that this problem (a combination of IDE disk and SCSI devices) isn't included in their free installation support! This sounds remarkable, and I have never had a modern PC of so simple model or configuration that it has fitted the limited rules for the free installation support. Terje J. Hanssen

Yesterday, I finally got sound going on my Linux setup. I downloaded RealPlayer G2 and it worked beautifully. Today, RealPlayer run but no sound coming out. All other sound functions still work. I can still play my CD, have system sound BUT no sound when I run RealPlayer. /var/log/message said kernel: Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? but KDE sound still work. I have re-installed RealPlayer 3 times now, still no sound when I run the RealPlayer. Any help is appreciated.

[opensuse] Kernel compilation the openSUSE way?
by Bjoern Voigt 28 Nov '21

28 Nov '21

I usually take the newest openSUSE kernel (from repository Kernel_stable). But since some month I have a DVB T2 HD card, which requires a patch (see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194171). So I need to compile kernels myself. I have a working compilation path. But the current path has 12 steps! It takes some time. I wonder, why it is so complicated to configure, compile and install a Kernel under openSUSE. Is there a better/easier/automated way to configure, compile and install a Kernel under openSUSE? I know this blog article. But the article uses Vanilla kernels and also needs 6 steps. With additional patches (4 steps), third-party modules (2 steps) and cleanup (1 step) the article would also need 13 steps: Compiling the Linux Kernel, the SUSE way https://www.suse.com/communities/blog/compiling-de-linux-kernel-suse-way/ This is my Kernel configuration, compilation and installation path: 1. Update kernel-source and kernel-default from Kernel_stable repository 2. Save kernel-source: cp -a /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-... /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my 3. Apply my patches cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my patch -b -p1 < ~myuser/.../my-kernel-patch.patch 4. Copy standard configuration: cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my cp -v /boot/config-4.11.4-1.gcba98ee-default .config 5. Edit .config: remove CONFIG_LOCALVERSION, CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, CONFIG_EXPERT remove some hardware-dependent settings 6. edit configuration interactively: Disable CONFIG_EXPERT and CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, because otherwise "make binrpm-pkg" creates huge kernel binaries. make oldconfig [...] Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) [] (NEW) -my1 * * Configure standard kernel features (expert users) * Configure standard kernel features (expert users) (EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW) Kernel debugging (DEBUG_KERNEL) [N/y/?] (NEW) make menuconfig Do some additional configuration. 7. Compile kernel (-j4 for four processor cores, ionice and nice to reduce the load, binrpm-pkg for RPM without source-RPM) make clean nice ionice -c idle make -j4 binrpm-pkg 8. Install the kernel RPM package rpm -Uvh /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-4.x.y_my1-....x86_64.rpm 9. Install necessary symbolic links for "dkms" cd /lib/modules/4.x.y-my1 ln -sv /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my source ln -sv /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my build 10. Update third-party modules (e.g. Nvidia driver): dkms install -m nvidia -v 375.66 -k 4.x.y-my1 11. Cleanup cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my make clean 12.

[opensuse] Raid, Raid6, what file system for good fault tolerance?
by cagsm 21 Dec '20

21 Dec '20

Hi list, speaking about software raid, not hardware controller based. I am trying to go for some local OpenSuse machine and adding some storage to it. Was considering Raid6, and now reading about a bit and people left and right scaremongering about the larger the disks these days in the double digit terabyte capacities even, the more likely it is that during a reconstruction of a raid subsequent errors would occur. I would absolutely like to keep my data consistent, and I am not thinking about double digit terabytes either, would stick to 2TB or 4TB disks, with Raid6 thats at least 4 physical drives. Now I am wondering if it possible to use a good robust file system that can add some more parity or check blocks or redundancy on top of the hardware disks, to absolutely be able to always read my data. I can't add multiple machines or like those high availability stuff like clusters and what not I read about DRBD (Distributed Replicated Block Device), or maybe I am just too scared by those technical terms or consider myself to be just a simpleton and wanting to keep it rather simple. My use case here is also not constant availablity, when a disk needs to be replaced, so be it, but I don't want to lose my data that I can not ever read certain parts of it again or such stuff. The thing that came to my mind was, if there is some file systems that would add redundancy and robustness onto the mdraid system of the linux kernel? Anyone with some useful insights? Roughly speaking, I was considering some simple pcie esata interfaced controller card and an external case enclosure with esata port and portmulitplier stuff inside, that can present at least 4 physical disks as JBOD, just a bunch of disks, so that the Linux can seem them all separately. Speed and rebuild times are not my concern, but data persistence and data integrity. Not even number of physical disks, I could live with even one of those 8 bay device enclosures and cases that are out there on the market. Thanks for any help and hints. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Spec'ing a 50 TB dedicated storage subsystem and room to grow?
by Greg Freemyer 22 Feb '19

22 Feb '19

All, I bought a used iSCSI based Drobo in 2016 with 50TB in it. It works great, but it isn't fast by today's standards. (100 MB/sec absolute max). And I never got it to work from openSUSE (Windows and Mac did work). I now need to buy something similar, but with fast I/O and Linux support: 10 Gbit Ethernet and fibre-channel may be my only options? Or are there point-to-point SAS external racks I should consider? Also, I will likely want to put a SSD based cache in the mix at some point. It could be integrated into the storage subsystem, or I could use something like bcache and have the SSD be in the server,. It just needs to be reliable and fast. Recommendations? (I'm thinking used and $10K at the high-end for the subsystem including PCIx cards and switches, if needed.) == details I need to buy a server with 50TB usable disk for a production environment. A high speed disk subsystem is critical. And the project may scale up over time. It doesn't need to be a fail-over cluster, just a single server. I'm looking at used equipment most likely. I was thinking one with 4 CPU sockets would let me start with 2 CPUs and then expand to 4 later on. Lots of RAM capacity would also be great. My first thought was to get a Dell R920 and throw a bunch of disks in it. https://goo.gl/images/x3Rfj2 24 disk slots! But then I looked at what size drives are available for those slots: 2.5 inch. I only see 2TB drives max. I'm hoping to use a Dell server because it's the preferred brand at my (new) job. Unless I'm missing something a standalone rack mount Dell won't work. So, now I'm looking at a used R820 most likely and some sort of disk subsystem to support it. I picked it because it is only a 5-year old design and it has 4 CPU sockets I can expand into as the server demand increases over time. Also 3TB max ram is way above what this will require, even long term. https://media.adn.de/media/DE/DocLib/Poweredge_Easy_Matrix.pdf A used, barebones R820 can be had for under $2K. Just add CPUs and ram. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Trying to adjust the swapiness of clamd
by Carlos E. R. 30 Nov '18

30 Nov '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm trying to force the clamd process to swap agresively, because by default it eats 500 MB of my limited memory even when it is doing nothing but waiting. Sorting process list in "top" by "RES" column shows that clamd is the 5th process using most memory in my system: top - 14:21:12 up 7 days, 14 min, 1 user, load average: 0,60, 0,70, 0,74 Tasks: 532 total, 2 running, 529 sleeping, 0 stopped, 1 zombie %Cpu(s): 5,8 us, 1,6 sy, 0,0 ni, 91,0 id, 1,7 wa, 0,0 hi, 0,0 si, 0,0 st KiB Mem: 8174528 total, 7765124 used, 409404 free, 24892 buffers KiB Swap: 25165820 total, 5177256 used, 19988564 free. 1970388 cached Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR SWAP S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 7098 cer 20 0 4249152 1,415g 61572 392760 S 0,000 18,15 295:54.17 thunderbird-bin 7494 cer 20 0 3040184 839476 51296 256248 S 0,330 10,27 155:16.49 Web Content 7341 cer 20 0 2858436 746840 41012 202296 S 3,300 9,136 74:35.03 Web Content 5221 cer 20 0 10,139g 740952 137364 464756 S 1,650 9,064 134:50.52 firefox 12020 vscan 20 0 711128 552372 1660 0 S 0,000 6,757 0:00.00 clamd ... Apparently this is done with cgroups, about which I know close to nothing. First I see: <https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/ht…> but I do not understand how to make use of it, except that I want to change memory.swappiness of the process. But I do not see where is that virtual file for the clamd process, if it exists. The examples there do things like: ~]# echo 1G > /cgroup/memory/lab1/memory.limit_in_bytes but they have a "lab1" entry for the particular process they are managing. I don't know how that entry appears. This is what I have: Telcontar:~ # ls /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ cgroup.clone_children cgroup.sane_behavior memory.limit_in_bytes memory.move_charge_at_immigrate memory.pressure_level memory.swappiness notify_on_release cgroup.event_control memory.failcnt memory.low_limit_in_bytes memory.numa_stat memory.soft_limit_in_bytes memory.usage_in_bytes release_agent cgroup.procs memory.force_empty memory.max_usage_in_bytes memory.oom_control memory.stat memory.use_hierarchy tasks Telcontar:~ # So I continue googling.

[opensuse] Can not send email using postfix on Bell, probably port 25 blocked.
by Carlos E. R. 14 Nov '18

14 Nov '18

Hi, I can no longer send email "normally", I get: status=deferred (connect to mail.gmx.es[212.227.17.174]:25: Connection timed out) on all mail accounts. My guess that suddenly Bell figured out it should block me or port 25 outgoing. Stupid! :-( So I told Thunderbird to send without using postfix, and that apparently works (if you see this, it works), but I want to keep using postfix. TH is using port 465, SSL/TLS, and password. So, in "/etc/postfix/sender_relayhost" I change this entry: robin.listas(a)gmx.es [mail.gmx.es] to this: robin.listas(a)gmx.es [mail.gmx.es]:submission And then I get this on the log: #<2.6> 2018-09-19 19:55:09 Legolas postfix 2044 - - SMTPS wrappermode (TCP port 465) requires setting "smtp_tls_wrappermode = yes", and "smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt" (or stronger) So I do what it says, then I get this on the log: <2.6> 2018-09-19 20:21:50 Legolas postfix 4065 - - C9A36E309E: to=<opensuse(a)opensuse.org>, relay=mail.gmx.es[212.227.17.174]:587, delay=13119, delays=13118/0.5/0.47/0, dsn=4.7.5, status=deferred (Cannot start TLS: handshake failure) <2.6> 2018-09-19 20:21:50 Legolas postfix 4068 - - SSL_connect error to mail.gmx.es[212.227.17.184]:587: -1 <2.4> 2018-09-19 20:21:50 Legolas postfix 4068 - - warning: TLS library problem: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number:ssl/record/ssl3_record.c:252: <2.6> 2018-09-19 20:21:50 Legolas postfix 4068 - - 8AEF1E309F: to=<opensuse(a)opensuse.org>, relay=mail.gmx.es[212.227.17.184]:587, delay=12654, delays=12653/0.7/0.45/0, dsn=4.7.5, status=deferred (Cannot start TLS: handshake failure) So what can I do? it seems a bug in a library, right? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] Login weirdness
by Michael Fischer 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

Leap 42.3 Haven't encountered this on previous installations, nor prior to a few weeks ago on this box. On a reboot, where it wold normally prompt for login, login: <typing anything here is not echoed back to the screen> Give Root Password for Maintenance (or press Control-D to continue) trying to log in normally just keeps having the terminal behave strangely, re-outputing some version of the above. hitting CTRL-D just sends it into a shutdown sequence. Hitting ENTER many times eventually produces "Welcome To OpenSuse".... and a login prompt which works normally. I find the following in journalctl: Oct 30 15:19:42 blinkenlights login[946]: gkr-pam: error looking up user information Oct 30 15:19:43 blinkenlights login[946]: pam_unix(login:auth): check pass; user unknown which I think comes from the botched efforts while it was saying """ Give Root Password for Maintenance (or press Control-D to continue) """ I recall seeing an error message about tty1 on the screen when I was in the midst of the failed logins and reboots, but I do not find it in journalctl. Suggestions for fixing/debugging, etc.?? journalctl _does_ show: Oct 30 16:50:25 blinkenlights smartd[929]: Device: /dev/sda [SAT], 16 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors Oct 30 16:50:25 blinkenlights smartd[929]: Device: /dev/sda [SAT], 16 Offline uncorrectable sectors Not sure if that is pertainent.

[opensuse] Epson L805 , anybody?

Hi, Any experiences with Epson L805 on this list? Compatibility, qualty, economy - pro et contra, please. Currently, I know there is some level of support for Linux (generic driver and utility SW available at http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/searchModule). It's all very new (25.10.2018). It seems that CISS/ITS technology takes economy to next level comparing to older ink-jets and lasers, and that's what attracted me.

[opensuse] python question
by George from the tribe 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

I am looking to get started on learning python. Any python programmers out there? My number 1 question is, what is your preferred IDE? I am looking at a medium sized project (for my experience) and I expect I will need some good troubleshooting tools that also give syntax help. I have read that Eclipse is a really good IDE for python, even though it is mostly used for java, and that PyDev adds lots of features to Eclipse. But there are other recommendations also. Anyone have any thoughts on what you have used and prefer? Advantages and disadvantages? -- George Box: 42.3 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: TW | Plasma 5.13 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 15.0 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Questions about name resolving using /etc/hosts
by Marc Chamberlin 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

I am running OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 on a machine with 2 NICs. I am also running a Bind DNS server on the same system. I did an experiment in order to assign a unique hostname to each of the NIC interface cards by simply editing my /etc/hosts file as shown below: (sorry, I am not sure how to format this for a newsgroup.) bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost # added for each nic 192.168.10.100 bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com bigbangInternal 10.10.10.100 bigbangExternal.mydomainname.com bigbangExternal ::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback fe00::0 ipv6-localnet ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts My host.conf file is configured to look at the hosts file first when resolving names: bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/host.conf ## file comments deleted for brevity... order hosts, bind multi on My nsswitch.conf file is also configured to look at the hosts file first when resolving names: bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/nsswitch.conf ## file comments deleted for brevity... passwd: compat group: compat hosts: files mdns_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns networks: files dns services: files protocols: files rpc: files ethers: files netmasks: files netgroup: files nis publickey: files bootparams: files automount: files nis aliases: files After editing the /etc/hosts file I flushed the name service cache: bigbang:/etc # systemctl restart nscd.service and when I test things out I get the following "surprising" results which appear at first glance to show that the name resolving order specified in nsswitch.conf is not being honored. But something else even deeper is going on as well that really has me baffled: bigbang:/etc # ping bigbangInternal ping: unknown host bigbangInternal ??? I didn't expect that! bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.10.100 bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com bigbangInternal 10.10.10.100 bigbangExternal.mydomainname.com bigbangExternal that looks good... bigbang:/etc # getent hosts localhost ::1 localhost ??? I am a bit surprised by this as I did not enable IPv6 addresses in YaST bigbang:/etc # getent hosts bigbangInternal bigbang:/etc # getent hosts bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com ??? no response! why not? bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 10.10.10.100 10.10.10.100 mydomainname.com ??? huh? Why did I get my dns domain name? bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 192.168.10.100 ??? no response! My guess is that these attempts to resolve these names and ip addresses is being done by my bind dns server and not by looking things up in the /etc/hosts file. But I don't understand why given that I am specifying that the order of lookup is to be done first via the /etc/hosts file and then by the bind dns server if the lookup in the hosts file fails. What am I missing and/or not understanding? Thanks in advance for any guidance/clues as to why I am seeing these results.

[opensuse] ls or find on directories with millions of files ?
by Per Jessen 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

This might be file system dependent, I'm not sure. I've been doing some tidying up and got stuck on a few directories with millions of files in them. 3+ million per directory. Doing a 'find' takes a very long time and also essentially chokes the system. I ended up writing a small utility using getdents() instead, much faster and the system remains operational. I was just wondering if e.g. 'find' or 'ls' had some options that would limit the scope ?

[opensuse] help for downloading xpi from addons.mozilla.org site
by Istvan Gabor 30 Oct '18

30 Oct '18

Hello: I would like to download (not to install) screengrab xpi with seamonkey web browser because I want to have the xpi file with its original name locally. When I visit the download page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/screengrab-fix-version/versi… with my seamonkey web browser I cannot find any download link to the xpi files. I see only big green buttons with the message "Only with Firefox — Get Firefox Now!", and these buttons direct me to firefox download page. What I want is to save the xpi for later use. Why doesn't the addons page allow the download of the xpi files with different browsers? How can I find out the xpi download links?

[opensuse] Why doesn't firewalld start at boot?
by Dave Plater 29 Oct '18

29 Oct '18

Hi, I first did a google and a word search in this list and the support list and the only mention of firewalld not starting at boot didn't have any replies. I did a bug search but found nothing, in fact it seems that people want to stop it at boot not start it. My Leap:15.0 laptop has it starting at boot, the only difference is that the laptop uses network manager and this pc uses wicked. I haven't bothered with this until now because kde connect doesn't work without the firewall running. Why doesn't firewalld start at boot suse firewall did.

[opensuse] The D in Systemd stands for 'Dammmmit!' A nasty DHCPv6 packet can pwn a vulnerable Linux box • The Register
by James Knott 29 Oct '18

29 Oct '18

I just came across this article. However, as this quote shows, whoever wrote the article doesn't really understand IPv6: "Thus, a rogue DHCPv6 server on a network, or in an ISP, could emit specially crafted router advertisement messages that wake up these clients, exploit the bug, and possibly hijack or crash vulnerable Systemd-powered Linux machines." Router advertisements are sent via link local addresses, which means only the router on the same network can cause this, as link local addresses are never passed by a router. Also, SLAAC is often used, not DHCPv6 for clients. You won't see any DHCPv6 clients on the local network, unless specifically enabled. The WAN side might be vulnerable, but that would require an ISPs router to be compromised. I doubt most ISPs would be running Linux on their network. They tend to go for high end Cisco gear or equivalent. There are some Cisco models that run on Linux, but they're not high end. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/10/26/systemd_dhcpv6_rce/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Question re rsync backup and hard links
by Carlos E. R. 28 Oct '18

28 Oct '18

Hi, I just did a backup of my main laptop using rsync: rsync --archive --acls --xattrs --hard-links \ --sparse --stats --human-readable --checksum \ --link-dest=/mnt/backup/previous/home \ /mnt/home/ \ /mnt/backup/current/home The idea is that files that exist in the previous backup are hard-linked into the current backup, saving space. But how much did I save? How many files and how many bytes are hardlinks? Maybe the info is in the rsync output, but I do not see it clearly: > Number of files: 252,287 (reg: 237,101, dir: 14,772, link: 375, special: 39) > Number of created files: 29,678 (reg: 28,379, dir: 1,283, link: 16) > Number of deleted files: 0 > Number of regular files transferred: 32,447 > Total file size: 257.29G bytes > Total transferred file size: 16.85G bytes > Literal data: 16.85G bytes > Matched data: 0 bytes > File list size: 4.91M > File list generation time: 0.004 seconds > File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds > Total bytes sent: 16.87G > Total bytes received: 648.53K > > sent 16.87G bytes received 648.53K bytes 2.22M bytes/sec > total size is 257.29G speedup is 15.25 > > real 126m33.023s > user 27m19.699s > sys 10m16.830s Maybe the clue is total size 257G vs sent 16.8G I know that summing up all the files in the backup disk (XFS) they take 1105G (by mc), but "df -h" says the disk is 932G, 648G are used, and 248G are free, so indeed there is saved space. And after erasing the home backup (I did it twice, so I deleted one copy), which takes 245370M bytes, df reports: Legolas:~ # df -h /media/Erebor_2/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdb1 932G 617G 315G 67% /media/Erebor_2 So one home backup uses 648-617 = 31GB, and about 214G are hard links. But it is a roundabout manner of finding out... (I have doubts about what GB units are the tools using, too) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.0 (Legolas))

[opensuse] Adding existing encrypted partition in YaST after installation
by Jan Ritzerfeld 27 Oct '18

27 Oct '18

Hey, the day before yesterday, I have finally managed to upgrade to Leap 15. The system works fine! My home partition is fully LUKS-encrypted and while installing Leap 15, YaST asked me to provide the passphrase. I did not provide it because I always install new versions in parallel and migrate the home directory later after having configured the system and tested it. After doing so, I wanted to add the encrypted home partition using YaST. However, I did not find any way to open the encrypted home. I am pretty sure that YaST of Leap 42.3 and before provided the possibility to do so. Could anyone confirm this?

[opensuse] Leap 15 fails to boot after kernel update today
by David C. Rankin 26 Oct '18

26 Oct '18

All, Last line is Mounted filesystem with ordered data mode Opts: null and the boot hangs. Any ideas? Note, booting prior kernel works just fine, so it is something specific to new -19 kernel that came out in the past day or two. This is running in virtualbox. All prior kernel updates have been just fine. This one completed fine, but as soon as it got to the point of invoking wayland, it just locks. Using Yast to remove the latest kernel solves the problem. Booting with the -16 kernel works great. -- David C.

[opensuse] Filesystem Hierachy - Correct Mount Location
by Paul Groves 26 Oct '18

26 Oct '18

Hi All, I have a single 1TB disk on a server at the moment mounted at root (/). I have run out of space so I have installed a 4TB hard disk along side the existing one. I will name this new disk media so it will be /mount-location/media I am trying to work out the correct location to mount this disk. It will contain data to be server to the network e.g. music and videos. So data will not change often. I though /mnt but that is apparently for temporarily mounted filesystems. perhaps either /var or /srv Where would best practice indicate I should mount this disk?

[opensuse] orca ate my CPU and typing speed
by ken 25 Oct '18

25 Oct '18

Since updating the kernel earlier this week, my keyboard has been really slow. I mean I could type faster than the characters would appear onscreen. This happened everywhere, in web pages, in emacs, even at a shell prompt in a terminal window. So finally today I checked some things and found (using "top") that "orca" was using 100% of a CPU (this laptop has 8 CPUs). "orca" was first a child process of "gkrellm" the first time I looked in "ps"; but when I looked (again in "ps") just a couple minutes later, "orca" was a child process of some "de-dup" process. That wasn't the entire name of the "de-dup" process, but only what of it I can remember. So I killed the "orca" process. I haven't noticed anything changing in the functioning of my system... except that my keyboard is now back up to speed; the characters appear onscreen as I type them, as they should. So I can say, "it's fixed." But I was wondering if anyone else has seen this problem. And what the heck is "orca" for...? why do I even need it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] IPv6 RDNSS not working 15.0

I just tried an experiment by turning off the DHCP server on my firewall. This means that DNS info can only be obtained by RDNSS in the router advertisement. With OpenSUSE, while I get an address and domain name, I do not get a DNS server address. With the same computer, running Windows 10, I get a DNS server and host name lookup works fine. RDNSS also works on my Android tablet. Why not on OpenSUSE?

[opensuse] Strange SCSI problem
by Paul Groves 25 Oct '18

25 Oct '18

Hi all. anyone come across this before? I have the following devices connected to the internal SCSI bus: Adaptec ASC-29320ALP U320 SCSI card. (Termination is on). HP Storageworks Ultrium 448 HP Sotrageworks Ultrium 1760 Built-in Terminator on cable When the server boots the Adaptec BIOS comes up first and scans the SCSI IDs. The problem is, whichever tape drive is the first ID on the SCSI bus. The scanning for IDs gets stuck on this drive for a while, about 2-3 minutes and the tray that takes the tape into the drive goes click click click for about a minute with the drives Ready LED flashing. Eventually it stops flashing and clicking and the SCSI card continues to scan IDs without a problem. When it gets to the second tape drive and so on it doesn't make it go click click flash and wait for ages. If I swap the SCSI ID jumpers over the problem also swaps. As I said it is whatever the lowest SCSI ID number is. Any clue what this might be? When the server boots the tape drives both work fine. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Asus M5A97 EvoR2 and logitech keyboard/mouse wirless with Leap 15. No wake up of USB HID after suspend to disc.
by stakanov 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

I have since leap 15 the following problem: The computer goes to sleep, after it is possible only to wake it up with the power button. Fair enough, that is expected. Then, they plasma desktop comes up, but the mouse and the keyboard have any functionality. I tried everything, included to by a ps/2 to usb adapter and try the ps2 support. Nothing. Prior to leap 15, it was straightforward, you would wake up the system that way and all worked like charm. As the system is AMD, I tried also the workaround with amd_iommu=on and immo=soft in boot parameters. No difference, once the system did suspend to disc, no way to get usb support back. I therefore think this is either kde related or kernel related. What did change in Leap 15 in the way it handles usb that makes logitech hardware unusable after a wake up?

[opensuse] Intel 82574L NIC Problem
by Paul Groves 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

Hi all, I am having a major problem on one of my systems with a network controller. The system has the Intel DQ77MK motherboard. This board has dual NICs. The first NIC, an Intel 82574LM works fine and is called eno1 The second NIC, an intel 82574L is the problem. The second NIC is called rename3, or sometimes rename2 / rename6 or rename7 etc.. It keeps changing. Whenever I try to apply any configuration to this NIC it changes name again, therefore I have no network connection. So I change the name in the config and the NIC changes name again. I have never seen a NIC called rename before. What is this trickery?!?!? The system is running ubuntu 18.04. Now I have probably confused you by posting on the OpenSUSE list, but the fact is I have posted on the Ubuntu forum and it has been 4 days and I have had no reply what so ever. It is still Linux after all, so hopefully one of you might be able to assist? Ubuntu 18.04 uses netplan to manage the network configuration. I intend to set up an bond in balance-rr mode as I have done on another system without issue. How can I go about diagnosing this? This is the first time I have every had a NIC not work in any linux distro (apart from broadcom wifi drives cough cough..) so I have literally no in-depth knowledge of networking in linux. so basically...

[opensuse] Broken menu titles in okular
by Bob Williams 21 Oct '18

21 Oct '18

Some time ago I was fiddling with okular's settings [Configuration/Configure Okular]. I'm not sure what I did, but since then the 'File', 'Configuration' and 'Help' menus have had their titles replaced with the words 'No text'. 'Edit', 'View', 'Go', 'Bookmarks' and 'Tools' are unchanged. The menus still work. If I knew where these variables were stored I could remove that file and re-install okular. Removing and re-installing doesn't work, which means the changes I made are persisting, which is annoying. -- Bob Williams System: Linux 4.18.12-2.ga880bd8-default Distro: Desktop: KDE Frameworks: 5.45.0, Qt: 5.9.4 and Plasma: 5.12.5

[opensuse] Samba en TW

Just updated TW with the latest packages (zypper dup ---no-rec) only to find that Samba is not working anymore, see below: systemctl start smb.service Job for smb.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status smb.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. pws1:~ # systemctl status smb.service ● smb.service - Samba SMB Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/smb.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2018-10-19 22:09:58 CEST; 6s ago Process: 8913 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/smbd --foreground --no-process-group $SMBDOPTIONS (code=exited, status=255) Process: 8912 ExecStartPre=/usr/share/samba/update-apparmor-samba-profile (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 8913 (code=exited, status=255) Oct 19 22:09:57 pws1 systemd[1]: Starting Samba SMB Daemon...
