[opensuse] CANBus experience
by Roger Oberholtzer 16 Aug '18

16 Aug '18

Anyone using a CANBus card with openSUSE? We will soon have a MobilEye device that we want to test integrating with our system. And it speaks CANBus. We are on our own to provide the CANBus card. So something that is known to play nice with Linux/openSUSE is what we are looking for. So any suggestions or experiences are welcome. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What means this on Yast?
by Carlos E. R. 14 Jul '18

14 Jul '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I manually added repository packman on Leap 15.0 (by URL). I then tried to change priority from 99 to 98. Yast warned: Repository 'Ext_Packman' is managed by service". Your manual changes might be reset by the next service refresh! What on earth is that!? Note: The string «service".», I guess that '"' was '"', but I can not actually make it out what it was, too tiny. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] MSI GE63 7RD : No openSUSE Leap 15?
by Markus Egg 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

Finally after a long search my selection for new laptop is the MSI GE63 7RD. Several internet tests were quite positive and -most important- it is very silent. Also the Ubuntu community said that these MSI laptops are quite "standard" stuff, only few tweaks, Optimus seems to be one thing to tweak. But: after having bought this machine I have to realize that openSUSE Leap 15 does not seem to be ready for this laptop (although amazon.de lists this machine since July 3rd 2017). There is a bunch of error messages when booting it up from USB after setting Secure boot to off and fast boot also. The worst one seems to be "NMI watchdog : BUG soft lockup CPU4 stuck for 22s!" afterwards SuSE15 seems to be stuck and I have to turn off by switch. I also tried tumbleweed on a USB stick - same error. Actually I was able to install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with a tweak of bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi under Windows 10 because otherwise the grub boot manager is not shown. Everything else seems to work after doing that tweak with nVidia which is described in internet all over. Does this mean I have to say goodbye to SuSE on my Laptop? After approx 28 years using SuSE? :-/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Boot problem after latest TW dup
by Ken Schneider - openSUSE 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

Old HP computer so possible hardware issues. I had issues during the dup to 20180628 and need to use the rescue system to repair grub. I cannot find an email I had with steps including 'bind -o' in them so if some kind soul could sent the procedure I would appreciate it. I've already repaired the filesystem but need to repair grub as well. Many thanks. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] weird error on opensuse site following an advert: new encryption only on suse?
by L A Walsh 02 Jul '18

02 Jul '18

I followed an opensuse advert for selling data storage for body-cams to police. It went through some redirects on google, then went to www.suse.com, where I prompt got some weird error I can't reproduce because google is serving up a different advert, and I don't know the URL because google encrypts the SSL stream (recently upgraded my squid and have yet to pop in a new local cert to decode it). This is a perfect reason why I hate needless encrypting of webpages -- as now I can't even find the URL I was on let alone reproduce the problem from it. However, I get a different but similar error if I try to goto the website directly. The connection was interrupted The connection to www.suse.com was interrupted while the page was loading. The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Pale Moon is permitted to access the Web. ----- Before, when I got the error, in my proxy log I got: +5.86 0ms; 0 (0/-) NONE/000 <Athenae [NONE error:transaction-end-before-headers - - -] +0.00 0ms; 0 (-/-) NONE/000 <Athenae [NONE error:transaction-end-before-headers - - -] +11.37 2038ms; 39 (3.0/19.0) TUNNEL/200 <Athenae [CONNECT www.suse.com:443 - 130.57.66.10 -] +34.72 2044ms; 39 (1.0/19.0) TUNNEL/200 <Athenae [CONNECT www.suse.com:443 - 130.57.66.10 -] --- After most of the suse connects, I see the weird message in my squidlog that I've never seen before "error:transaction-end-before-headers"... I get the same message going to the opensuse network forums webpage. I have a feeling it has to do with the new encryption as I'm using an older browser by default So far, opensuse is the first site that I've hit this on. I know it isn't the proxy, as it opens in another (newer browser (opera)). So the claim is that open suse is doing this because google is forcing it. Then why am I not having the same problem with other web pages -- including google? This new encryption (if that's what it is and if it was done right) seems to be only present on opensuse systems at this point (maybe more will pop up later). But the part I find to be the most strange is that the sites that the ad was on, had no problem, I have no problems any google site (youtube, plus, etc). Just suse.com and opensuse.org. I don't have the problem on download.opensuse.org (which defaults to http for me), nor the https version used on that site. So why is opensuse causing problems for some browsers, but no one else seems to be (including download site)?

[opensuse] SuSE 42.3 on laptop?
by Markus Egg 30 Jun '18

30 Jun '18

Hello, my trustful laptop had it's final shutdown after 11 years. There are currently 2 choices for my usage (watching videos, doing 3D printing, usenet, dual ethernet). Dell Inspiron 7577 ( 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, 16GB) Acer Aspire VX5 ( 512GB SSD + 1.000GB, 16GB) All of them are missing a DVD Writer (or even BluRay player). So which combination of USB (3.0?) Bluray player/DVD writer can I use with the above laptops to install SuSE 42.3 from DVD beside that Windows 10 (dual boot)? Also I need a 2nd Ethernet. I was using PCAMCIA/Cardbus up to now which worked fine, now I have to dump this working hardware also. :-/ Which USB-Ethernet dongles do you suggest? Is there any other better combination?

[opensuse] Combined wifi bluetooth RTL8723DE on an HP 15 laptop has bluetooth only.
by Dave Plater 30 Jun '18

30 Jun '18

Hi, I've bought an HP 15 laptop where neither blue tooth or wifi works under both 42.3 and Leap 15.0. Of course it works perfectly under windows 10. I googled and found that Larry Finger maintains a git hub repository of such drivers and I checked out rtlwifi_new which has my RTL8723DE driver src but it fails to build most probably due to the Leap:15.0 kernel being altered. Can anybody help, I'm currently stumped. Thanks Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
