[opensuse] upgrading KDE in Leap
by stakanov 16 Jul '18

16 Jul '18

Is it possible to upgrade KDE in Leap? Does this require also an upgrade of QT? Does this upgrade also akonadi? (as akonadi/kontact in Leap 15 is getting a serious problem - system overheat, memory leak, crash on restart of Kontact). If somebody has experience with the procedure I would appreciate a trace of: - what repos - what zypper command - experiences with the current kde version regarding kontact/akonadi _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] video4linux
by Dave Howorth 15 Jul '18

15 Jul '18

So I just tried to build the current video4linux (266752) for opensuse Leap 42.3 and it fails. It starts by issuing a bunch of warnings and finally an error because openSUSE has backported a changed kernel API for get_user_pages that doesn't match its stated kernel version, which v4l uses to try to compile against a variety of kernels. Does anybody know what that is all about? Also, would upgrading to Leap 15 solve the problem and let me compile v4l, or would it just leave me even more frustrated? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] preventing programs from accessing the net
by Dave Howorth 14 Jul '18

14 Jul '18

What's the best/easiest way to stop a program accessing the net? I want to run a program (actually 'make') that may in turn run other programs and some of which might try to access the net. I'd like the access to be stopped and me given a meaningful error message (i.e. what part of what program tried to access what net resource). Ideally, I'd then have the choice of aborting or allowing it to continue. Searching throws up various possibilities, some of which are not in the standard repositories, and I'm not sure what the best approach is. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

A little off-topic, but could you tell us the name of this UPS unit which is happy to beep when wall power fails, but which cannot protect your motherboard? Some UPS's include insurance. Does yours?

[opensuse] /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
by Dave Howorth 14 Jul '18

14 Jul '18

Where does /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build come from? Or alternately, what should its value be? It is apparently needed to build kernel modules, but is not present on my system in /lib/modules/4.4.138-59-default/ I do have kernel-default-devel, kernel-devel, kernel-source and kernel-syms installed. I see various suggestions on the web but the answer appears to depend on the distro and version (which is 42.3). -- 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

-----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] how to get dbus-launch working?
by L A Walsh 13 Jul '18

13 Jul '18

When I login now, I see messages like: Unable to register terminal service: /usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch requested, but X11 support not compiled in. Cannot continue. So I make sure /tumbleweed/dbus-1-x11-1.12.6-1.1.x86_64.rpm: Preparing... ################################# [100%] Updating / installing... 1:dbus-1-x11-1.12.6-1.1 ################################# [ 50%] update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/dbus-launch.x11 to provide /usr/bin/dbus-launch (dbus-launch) in auto mode But now I get: Unable to register terminal service: /usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon ??? I thought it was supposed to launch dbus for me? -- that being what dbus-launch was for? I am guessing dbus-launch doesn't really mean dbus-launch? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Osm2mp on opensuse
by stakanov 12 Jul '18

12 Jul '18

Hi everybody. I am trying to install osm2mp a converter program for openstreetmap (vs garmin) on opensuse Leap 15. The page of osm gives following advice (that does not tell me a lot about what they do there) and I would like to know if somebody tried it, has any experience with it, knows whether the indicated way is viable for leap: Indications are: OpenSUSE Open terminal app and enter following commands: su zypper in perl-YAML perl -MCPAN -e "install List::MoreUtils" perl -MCPAN -e "install Text::Unidecode" perl -MCPAN -e "install Data::Dump" perl -MCPAN -e "install Math::Polygon" perl -MCPAN -e "install Inline::MakeMaker" perl -MCPAN -e "install Math::Geometry::Planar::GPC::Polygon" perl -MCPAN -e "install Math::Polygon::Tree" perl -MCPAN -e "install Tree::R" Does this still work in leap 15? (seems to be just a collection of perl scripts? _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] CUPS LDP printing and queue, confused
by Istvan Gabor 12 Jul '18

12 Jul '18

Hello: I would like to configure two network printers in yast as LPD/LPR printers. One is a HP Laserjet, the other is an Epson all-in-one. The add LPD printer dialogue in the printer connections wizard insist that I enter a print queue name which I don't know. (Yast dialog says: "Queue Name (see the printer's manual) ) I also tried to add the printers in CUPS web configuration tool and it also expects that the queue added, like: Add Printer Connection: lpd Examples: lpd://hostname/queue or in the CUPS help pages (http://localhost:631/help/network.html): lpd://ip-address-or-hostname/queue What is the value of this queue? Where can I find it? If I understand correctly this is not the same as the "printer queue name" or printer name I specify when I set up the printer queue. I searched both printer's manuals for queue but could not find mentioning of queue in ip address. Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
