If I was using osc locally for firefox-esr, that wouldn't be an issue, but I am only using build-service here. I didn't want to create a local osc build which duplicates the 200M+ source file both in the osc dir as well as in the firefox mercurial repository locally. I'll try and find a way to only transfer the .spec, but if you have any tips or help there, I'd appreciate it. This should really be something that should be easily handled with the web-interface alone. Thanks again. You have pointed me in the right direction. -- David C.

[opensuse] mozilla-nss update
by Dave Howorth 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

I just went to YaST Online Update and see a bunch of updates available. When I click on Accept, a box pops up advising me that an update to mozilla-nss has also been changed to resolve dependencies. I have 3.36.1-47.1 and it wants to install 3.36.4-50.1. What I can't find is how to see what dependency would be broken, or why this update is only listed as an 'automatic' one and not in the list of available updates, so I can't see what problems it is supposed to fix. How can I access that information? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Different UID's
by Frans de Boer 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Dear All, Can someone explain why there is such a difference in UID's as well as GUID's between leap 15 and Tumbleweed? I use multiple OSen, but all use the same data disks for none OS bounded data. For instance, I use one common data directory for use of Qemu with the group KVM. But under leap KVM is group 488 and under Tumbleweed 478, which makes it impossible to use the data sets without changing the GUID every time. This is just one example, there are many more. So, anyone...? Regards, Frans. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[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?

[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. 26 Jun '18

26 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.
