[opensuse] grub2-mkconfig fails with error 127
by John Pugh 29 May '18

29 May '18

Hi all, Not sure if my situation is unique to my hardware, but no matter how I try to install (from a live usb) open leap 15 I receive the same error when the install tries to configure grub2 The first lines are similar to grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Failed error 127 There are several lines where a os-prober issued blkid command not found and a final line where in /etc/grub.d/80-… btrfs is command not found. However I chrootted in to root and ran the same command with no error (and subsequently it now boots). Is this a known issue or have I stumbled upon a unique hardware issue? Thanks!

[opensuse] Leap 15 - How to fix FF 60 text box size (make smaller)
by David C. Rankin 29 May '18

29 May '18

All, On Leap 15 with FF 60, the text boxes/input boxes are twice their normal height which is pushing information off my weather page. In the screenshot below, all of the text display boxes were the *same height* as the [Reset] button in the middle with FF 52.8, http://paste.opensuse.org/6890226 but now the text boxes are all twice the normal size: http://paste.opensuse.org/95756919 How do I fix this? It literally effect every text or input box regardless of the theme I choose. -- David C.

[opensuse] btrfs-balance.sh locked my computer for 15+ minutes
by Aaron Digulla 29 May '18

29 May '18

Hi, So far I'm happy with Leap 15.0. The system felt stable in the last few days. But when I tried to login today, the system was very sluggish. It took me a couple of minutes to start atop and figure out what's going on. btrfs-balance.sh locked my computer for 15+ minutes I'm not sure whether this is a new script with Leap 15 or whether it was already in 42.3 or maybe disable. So I let it run once. When I started it again manually, it ran less than a second. But I would prefer it btrfs balance wouldn't freeze the system. Should I open a bug report with suse? Or on github (https://github.com/kdave/btrfsmaintenance)? Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a. Philmann Dark "It's not the universe that's limited, it's our imagination.

[opensuse] Leap 15 and Teamviewer 12 incompatibility
by Andrei Verovski 29 May '18

29 May '18

Hi ! I just found that upgrade from Leap 42.3 to 15.0 breaks Teamviewer 12 compatibility. Verified on 2 PCs. Teamviewer GUI simply fails to launch (in terminal "launching GUI" freezes forever). Anyone have a fix to this issue? Teamviewer 13 works fine, however, in this particular case this is not an option.

[opensuse] Leap 42 3 kernel update to 4.4.132 failed?
by David C. Rankin 29 May '18

29 May '18

All, I had not seen this one before, upon zypper up -r update, the update to 4.4.132 failed with: (36/49) Installing: kernel-default-4.4.132-53.1.x86_64 .....................................................[error] Installation of kernel-default-4.4.132-53.1.x86_64 failed: Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: warning: %post(kernel-default-4.4.132-53.1.x86_64) scriptlet failed, signal 2 Which left the box unbootable. Thankfully I still have the .126 kernel that was fine, so I booted 126 and reinstalled all kernel rpms, e.g. rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs --replacefiles (the list of noarch & x86_64 packages, devel packages and kernel sources. The install succeeded the 2nd time. What 'scriptlet' is it saying failed with signal 2? And what could cause such a failure? -- David C.

[opensuse] Claws Mail Menu Bar Missing
by Richmond 28 May '18

28 May '18

I have no menu bar with claws mail. I can get options up by pressing alt-f and then using left and right arrow keys. It says the menu bar is enabled. I have tried with Mate, Xfce, and Icewm, but all the same. How do I get a menu bar?

[opensuse] TW ntpd delays shutdown
by Felix Miata 28 May '18

28 May '18

I've seen this on multiple installations and just ignored the delay before, but it's seriously irritating that reboot can take more than 10 or so seconds to accomplish. Typically ntpd shows a 1.5m timeout, and often takes more than a minute to timeout and reboot to proceed. The only red I see in 'systemctl status ntpd' is restrict: ignoring line 52, mask '::' unusable. Lines 52-54 of /etc/ntp.conf: # Local users may interrogate the ntp server more closely. restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict ::1 Tail of /var/log/ntp: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/Factory/ntptail-TWdelay.txt What can be done to end this delay? -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.

[opensuse] 15.0 ping IPv6
by James Knott 27 May '18

27 May '18

I just noticed one difference with 15.0. The ping command now uses IPv6, if available. Previously, it was necessary to use ping6. It's now necessary to use ping -4 to force ping on IPv4. This is similar to Windows. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] zypper dup - systemd related endless timeouts for even more endless number of packages
by cagsm 27 May '18

27 May '18

There seems to be a moment while zypper dup (coming from 42.3) when apparently the system process or daemon seems to be getting replaced or something happens, that follwing package updates/upgrades try to trigger a restart or reload of systemd or its parts and always fail into a timeout for a very long time over and over again, thus delaying the whole zypper dup process to a multi-hour (last system I tried) endeavour. I was waiting to post this message to the list, to make sure a second system were behaving the same (annoying to my likings) way, and yes it does. I will probably wait and sit this out again, and this will take many hours here.... Is this the proper way? Is this happening for everybody? Is this the desired experience for us end-users? Is there no better way of handling this? I cant remember of these tens? hundreds? of packages all trying to communicate to or with systemd components, and failing timeouting in previous opensuse releases/upgrades. Has this never been tested? Dont seems right to me. Maybe I am too enthusiastic about all of this :( I get plenty of this kind of messages: ( 564/2995) Installing: wicked-service-0.6.47-lp150.1.1.x86_64 ..........................................................................................................[done] Additional rpm output: Failed to reload daemon: Activation of org.freedesktop.systemd1 timed out Failed to reload daemon: Activation of org.freedesktop.systemd1 timed out Failed to enable unit: Connection timed out Failed to reload daemon: Activation of org.freedesktop.systemd1 timed out Failed to try-restart wickedd.service: Activation of org.freedesktop.systemd1 timed out See system logs and 'systemctl status wickedd.service' for details.

Failed to try-restart logrotate.timer: Connection timed out See system logs and 'systemctl status logrotate.timer' for details. (many more.....) (I am zypper dup-ing from via a screen terminal, exchanges zypper repos (oss, update-oss, non-oss, update-non-oss) via yast from 42.3 as url address to 15.0 obviously before), and issued a zypper dup --download-in-advance, not updates zypper itself or anything else) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
