[opensuse] Cups compatibility
by Ansgar Esztermann-Kirchner 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

Hello List, having recently upgraded by 42.3 machine to Leap 15, I've noticed my cups client does not talk to the (ancient) server anymore. When I look at other machines, cups seems to have changed from 1.7.5 to 2.2.7, so maybe something changed so drastically that compatibility is impaired? My cups knowledge is sketchy, so I do not really know how to debug this problem. Any hints? For what it's worth, I see E [25/Jun/2018:14:23:45 +0200] cupsdReadClient: 20 IPP Read Error! in the server's error_log while the client reports lpr: bad request My /etc/cups/client.conf is unchanged from previous versions (i.e. it's still working for Leap 42.3 and earlier): ServerName our_cups_server.mpibpc.intern/version=1.1 Thanks, A. -- Ansgar Esztermann Sysadmin http://www.mpibpc.mpg.de/grubmueller/esztermann

[opensuse] Attempting to boot Windows 10 from an external disk
by Carlos E. R. 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hi, I got a small Lenovo Yoga 300-11IBR laptop, that came with Windows 10 installed on a rotating rust 500GB hard disk. After two days of playing with it, I removed the original internal hard disk and replaced it with a 250 GB SSD and installed openSUSE 15.0 on it, which is working fine. The original hard disk I placed on an USB 3 enclosure for extra storage, and possibly to boot Windows if needed. Alas, W10 does not boot. It tries to, I see the rotating dots patterns characteristic of Windows, then it stops and boots Linux instead. I don't think it is a license issue, it would say so. It is not that important to boot Windows, but as I have it, it would be nice to have double boot. There is one setting that I apparently can only adjust on Windows, the battery charge limit. Ideas? Grub creates this entry: > > ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### > menuentry 'Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sdb1)' --class windows --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-efi-CE88-C933' { > insmod part_gpt > insmod fat > set root='hd1,gpt1' > if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then > search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd1,gpt1 --hint-efi=hd1,gpt1 --hint-baremetal=ahci1,gpt1 CE88-C933 > else > search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root CE88-C933 > fi > chainloader /efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi > } > ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### External disk layout:> > sdb sdb 512 0 0 465.8G disk 0 > ├─sdb1 sdb1 512 0 0 260M part vfat SYSTEM_DRV EFI system partition CE88-C933 f8cc1b03-845f-495d-afb8-8763d362576a 0 > ├─sdb2 sdb2 512 0 0 16M part Microsoft reserved partition b580048b-b412-4280-8628-4f5a642bf3f3 0 > ├─sdb3 sdb3 512 0 0 426.4G part ntfs Windows Basic data partition EE688AB5688A7C59 7448c205-37a2-4258-870e-52feebabcd15 0 > ├─sdb4 sdb4 512 0 0 25G part ntfs LENOVO Basic data partition 9C6E39116E38E5A4 c31e105b-60af-4f4c-869a-2eaf69a562a3 0 > ├─sdb5 sdb5 512 0 0 1000M part ntfs WINRE_DRV Basic data partition 5EF039DCF039BB5B 9a6c9c26-7de4-4715-b71c-0d3ee9abac5c 0 > ├─sdb6 sdb6 512 0 0 12.2G part ntfs LENOVO_PART Basic data partition 08F43CF0F43CE21C 1be4dcd8-b6e9-4f4a-8c22-c5b0d4b0d764 0 > └─sdb7 sdb7 512 0 0 1000M part vfat LRS_ESP Basic data partition 64A5-5D54 c879d40e-fb2e-4a36-8cd9-1e38edfd32c9 0 Disk /dev/sdb: 465.8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 33553920 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: 3596C2CC-16C3-4FA6-9665-89D0C78548B0 > > Device Start End Sectors Size Type > /dev/sdb1 2048 534527 532480 260M EFI System > /dev/sdb2 534528 567295 32768 16M Microsoft reserved > /dev/sdb3 567296 894713855 894146560 426.4G Microsoft basic data > /dev/sdb4 894713856 947142655 52428800 25G Microsoft basic data > /dev/sdb5 947142656 949190655 2048000 1000M Windows recovery environment > /dev/sdb6 949190656 974725119 25534464 12.2G Windows recovery environment > /dev/sdb7 974725120 976773119 2048000 1000M Lenovo boot partition bootinfoscript output (contains all relevant boot information) here: <http://paste.opensuse.org/3587437> -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] Baffled by shell script
by Joseph Comfort 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

A script that has worked for many generations of openSuSE fails under the LEAP 15 installation. The script ('ted') is located under /usr/local/bin. It reads: #!/bin/sh # Script for EDT look-alike ED v1.5.9 eddsk=/usr/local/ED-159 $eddsk/edc $eddsk/vt200.ed $eddsk/ed.setup 0 0 -1 -u $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 It is used for text editing. A command such as: 'ted filename' gives the error message /usr/local/bin/ted: line 7: /usr/local/ED-159/edc: No such file or directory But the file exists. The command 'dir /usr/local/ED-159/edc' yields -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 214104 Sep 10 2006 /usr/local/ED-159/edc The directory chain and permissions are as they need to be. I have tried numerous variations and tests, but must be missing the one that will work. Yes, the code and script are pretty ancient. Was there some peculiar change to the shell (bash) code?

[opensuse] No touchpad and keybord after upgrade to kernel 17.2
by Albert Oszkó 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hi all, I am just interested whether those on oS also met the problem in the subject. After about 2 weeks I switched on my ASUS K 501U laptop with TW and saw there were a massive number (nearly 3000!!) updates. It was not smooth to install them because in the meantime root got full. I deleted the elder snaphots (sudo snapper delete ---sync #snapshot) and installed the remaining more than 300 updates. Finally I tried to reboot, but neither touchpad nor keybord works on the 17.2 kernel. I could log in with the virtual keyboard and the mouse. Now I booted with 16.2 kernel which just works fine. So anybody met this, and has a remedy? Thanks, Albert

[opensuse] Network manager does not restore same connection
by Carlos E. R. 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, On return from hibernation, Network Manager doesn't restore the same connection that was active. I have two eth network configurations: one automatic, which is the default one, and one fixed, in which I define the address and other things. I'm using "Fixed", but if I hibernate and restore I get "wired connection 1", ie dhcp. I'm going to the undefine "wired connection 1" the setting "connect to this network when available", but then maybe it will not connect to anyone. [...] Confirmed, then I get "no connection". I may try to set both as default, see which one gets it... [...] Well, it was the "Fixed" one. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Enabling an external display on a laptop that shows disconnected.
by don fisher 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

I am trying to discover how to enable an external monitor that I plug into my laptop. I am trying both 42.3 and 15. When I execute the xrandr command by itself is shows HDMI-2 disconnected. My laptop screen sometimes comes up as LVDS-1 unknown connection, where it certainly knew the connection when I started the system (should be connected primary) I have tried various xrandr commands advertised to work, the simplest being sudo xrandr --auto. After many hours on google I always find the xrandr --auto solution. The Opensuse system settings widget only shows one display and no options to probe for others. If I boot the system with the display attached it comes up correctly, so the monitor and cabling are good. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

At work, we have an instrument for measuring RF leakage that displays on an tablet or phone. Watch some videos. I have a couple of apps for checking WiFi. Video chat. Lots of things. Until recently, I could use them to program my PVR, but Rogers broke that. I hear some people even use them for something called "Facebook". ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
