Hi all,
My problem is shown in the subject. I just wanted to try whether our not
too young, not too smart TV can play mkv files. So I copied two videos
on a 8G FAT 32 USB stick. The TV could play both files, with sound. I
waned to add some more files from my laptop, but the drive is not
writeable any more. Not as superuser. I see the content and can play the
two video files on the laptop. I noticed that a new directory, called
DVR was created. What can I do besides reformatting?
Thanks, Albert
Hello,
So I have this Lenovo AMD A6 laptop with 4 Gb of RAM and an HDD (not
SSD). And under Windows 10 it is s-l-o-w, but my wife uses it and she
has one indispensable Windows application.
I would like to make this a dual-boot machine, so that if Linux proves
much faster, we could try that application under WINE, or try
VirtualBox with some very old Windows in it, or, finally, see if an
open source replacement can be made to work for her.
But it's a recent laptop so it has UEFI and Secure Boot and all that.
Also, no optical drive at all, of course.
So what can I do to make this into a dual-boot machine with OpenSUSE?..

Hi all,
This Asus laptop (with TW and KDE) was not used for ten days. Yesterday
evening I switched it on and saw I have >800 updates. I tried tio
install them with zypper dup. I failed, because root got full. This was
with 4.18.0 kernel. I managed to boot into 4.17.14 kernel (got some
complaints, but none showstopper) and manually remove all downloaded rpm
packages from /var/cache/zypp/packages with mc. Dolphin did not start in
superuser mode. All these deleted and having only the 0 and 1 snapshots,
I have less than 600 M in root from 40 G. And I have no idea where is
the rest of the space?
Can I get any help?
Albert
Something like invalid read or write on (hd0) and something about
ramdisk and you need to load kernel first or something.
What happened? Some dracut updates or whatever and and I needed to do
maintenance on my power supply here, and after the start up of this
system it is in this limbo state now.
Sigh :( Any helpers? What can I do?
I think I have pretty simple swap, / and /home three partitions, thats
all. Simple mbr disk.
What now? And even more interestingly, WHY oh WHY? :(
Is this some known issue with recent boot/disk related updates and patches?
I always do zypper ref zypper up
Eventually this system got itself a shutdown and now the boot up
attempt totally fails :(
Thanks for helping.

Am I correct in assuming that if I select the "drop" firewall zone and
enter a source MAC address, all frames from that MAC address will be
dropped?
tnx jk

I have to manage some projects and work groups on a openSUSE Samba
server. The project members are changing from project to project.
Minimal permissions are required, because of the "need to know"
principle, established during an external auditing process.
I often have the task to setup permissions like this for a project folder.
* a group A with write access
* an additional user B with write access
* a user C with read access
* new files and directories should get the same permissions as
existing files/directories
* sub-directories sometimes have more, less or other permissions
* optional, but may be required in future:
reporting of all permissions (for the auditing)
It is clear, that I need ACLs on the Samba server to fulfill the
requirements. On average I have to change permissions of around one
project folder (with many sub-folders and files) a day. In most
situations the project folders are in use. The Samba server and my
desktop PC run on openSUSE. The project members run Windows 10, but do
know nothing about Windows/Samba ACLs.
Which tool is best suited for the task to setup (and optional report)
Samba/Windows ACLs?
I already tested some tools and methods:
1. chown, chgrp and chmod
only possible directly on the server; not capable of ACLs another
than Unix standard (owner, group and others)
2. chown, chgrp, chmod, setfacl and getfacl (my current method)
works, but takes some time on usage; difficult; only possible
directly on the server;
can be scripted, if the tasks are comparable;
not very fail-safe (of course because of usage errors)
3. smbcacls
works, but is slow; difficult; needs a login for each execution; no
recursion
4. Windows file properties dialog, security tab
works, but I have to start a Windows VM extra for this task; no
reporting
5. Cacls (Windows)
works, but I have to start a Windows VM extra for this task; difficult
6. Winacl (FreeNAS)
Only for Samba servers on FreeNAS; only possible directly on the server
7. Local administration (mounted CIFS share) with "multiuser" mount option
even with the "multiuser" mount option owners, groups, permissions
and ACLs of the original files/directories on the server are hidden
on the client
Greetings,
Björn

Hello,
I tried to setup Mariadb-Galera before on Leap 42.3 but I was stuck on not
finding a well suited package for it.
Leap 15.0 comes with support to Mariadb-Galera, then I installed the
following packages
mariadb-10.2.15-lp150.2.3.2.x86_64
mariadb-galera-10.2.15-lp150.2.3.2.x86_64
libmariadb3-3.0.3-lp150.1.2.x86_64
mariadb-errormessages-10.2.15-lp150.2.3.2.noarch
mariadb-client-10.2.15-lp150.2.3.2.x86_64
When I tried to configure the wsrep_provider I could not find the file
libgalera_smm.so anywhere.
This file is used on this configuration file /etc/my.cnf.d/50-galera.cnf
...
# Full path to wsrep provider library or 'none'
wsrep_provider=%{_libdir}/galera/libgalera_smm.so
...
Is there another package with it or it was missed when the package was
built?
Best Regards

I am planning a Leap 42.3 => 15.0 upgrade along with new AMD B450/Ryzen
5 2400G hardware. After the upgrade I intend to install the 4.18 kernel
from kernel:stable to enable using the integrated VEGA graphics.
However, there are recent reports of the Leap install failing due to the
ccp kernel module locking up on a bug in the amd firmware. Apparently
this is not fixed in the most recent kernel.
A kernel patch was submitted only just yesterday that works around this
issue:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1534367485-4386-2-git-send-email-brijesh.singh…
I have no idea how to determine when this patch is applied to an
opensuse kernel, and which/where that kernel is.
Any help?
Thanks in advance!

I was just doing some checking with Wireshark and noticed Leap 15.0 does
not appear to use either DAD or gratuitous ARP on an Ethernet
connection. Gratuitious ARP is an older method of detecting address
conflict and DAD is newer. But it appears 15.0 does neither. Not only
do they detect address conflicts, but also let switches and other
devices know that the NIC is connected. Why is this not happening?
I'm running 15.0 with KDE and connecting with Network Manager.

My college wifi uses WPA2 Enterprise/PEAP. I am able to connect and authenticate (username and password are accepted) to the wifi network, but I don't get any internet. I know it's not a problem with the wifi because my Android phone has no problem using the wifi.
I have an ASUS K501UW laptop running Tumbleweed 20180828.
