I usually take the newest openSUSE kernel (from repository
Kernel_stable). But since some month I have a DVB T2 HD card, which
requires a patch (see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194171).
So I need to compile kernels myself. I have a working compilation path.
But the current path has 12 steps! It takes some time. I wonder, why it
is so complicated to configure, compile and install a Kernel under openSUSE.
Is there a better/easier/automated way to configure, compile and install
a Kernel under openSUSE?
I know this blog article. But the article uses Vanilla kernels and also
needs 6 steps. With additional patches (4 steps), third-party modules (2
steps) and cleanup (1 step) the article would also need 13 steps:
Compiling the Linux Kernel, the SUSE way
https://www.suse.com/communities/blog/compiling-de-linux-kernel-suse-way/
This is my Kernel configuration, compilation and installation path:
1. Update kernel-source and kernel-default from Kernel_stable repository
2. Save kernel-source: cp -a /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-...
/usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my
3. Apply my patches
cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my
patch -b -p1 < ~myuser/.../my-kernel-patch.patch
4. Copy standard configuration:
cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my
cp -v /boot/config-4.11.4-1.gcba98ee-default .config
5. Edit .config:
remove CONFIG_LOCALVERSION, CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, CONFIG_EXPERT
remove some hardware-dependent settings
6. edit configuration interactively:
Disable CONFIG_EXPERT and CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, because otherwise
"make binrpm-pkg" creates huge kernel binaries.
make oldconfig
[...]
Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) [] (NEW) -my1
*
* Configure standard kernel features (expert users)
*
Configure standard kernel features (expert users) (EXPERT) [N/y/?]
(NEW)
Kernel debugging (DEBUG_KERNEL) [N/y/?] (NEW)
make menuconfig
Do some additional configuration.
7. Compile kernel
(-j4 for four processor cores, ionice and nice to reduce the load,
binrpm-pkg for RPM without source-RPM)
make clean
nice ionice -c idle make -j4 binrpm-pkg
8. Install the kernel RPM package
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-4.x.y_my1-....x86_64.rpm
9. Install necessary symbolic links for "dkms"
cd /lib/modules/4.x.y-my1
ln -sv /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my source
ln -sv /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my build
10. Update third-party modules (e.g. Nvidia driver):
dkms install -m nvidia -v 375.66 -k 4.x.y-my1
11. Cleanup
cd /usr/src/linux-4.x.y-my
make clean
12. Select Grub configuration and reboot
grub2-once --list | less
grub2-once 2
reboot
Greetings,
Björn

I just tried to attach an iPad to my openSUSE 15.0 system, via USB. I
think I've done it before, but this time it fails. Dmesg has:

Hi list,
speaking about software raid, not hardware controller based.
I am trying to go for some local OpenSuse machine and adding some
storage to it. Was considering Raid6, and now reading about a bit and
people left and right scaremongering about the larger the disks these
days in the double digit terabyte capacities even, the more likely it
is that during a reconstruction of a raid subsequent errors would
occur.
I would absolutely like to keep my data consistent, and I am not
thinking about double digit terabytes either, would stick to 2TB or
4TB disks, with Raid6 thats at least 4 physical drives.
Now I am wondering if it possible to use a good robust file system
that can add some more parity or check blocks or redundancy on top of
the hardware disks, to absolutely be able to always read my data.
I can't add multiple machines or like those high availability stuff
like clusters and what not I read about DRBD (Distributed Replicated
Block Device), or maybe I am just too scared by those technical terms
or consider myself to be just a simpleton and wanting to keep it
rather simple.
My use case here is also not constant availablity, when a disk needs
to be replaced, so be it, but I don't want to lose my data that I can
not ever read certain parts of it again or such stuff.
The thing that came to my mind was, if there is some file systems that
would add redundancy and robustness onto the mdraid system of the
linux kernel?
Anyone with some useful insights? Roughly speaking, I was considering
some simple pcie esata interfaced controller card and an external case
enclosure with esata port and portmulitplier stuff inside, that can
present at least 4 physical disks as JBOD, just a bunch of disks, so
that the Linux can seem them all separately.
Speed and rebuild times are not my concern, but data persistence and
data integrity. Not even number of physical disks, I could live with
even one of those 8 bay device enclosures and cases that are out there
on the market.
Thanks for any help and hints.

The disk is indeed smart capable and it works fine, as long as I call
smartctl with "-d sat,16", which I do:

I'd like to create a live 15.1 on a USB stick. Are there any official
procedures? Please note, I want to create a usable system, not an
install system. I already have one of those. A search turns up some
procedures for Windows, but not Linux. I'd rather use Linux.
tnx jk

Hi,
when I use "ctrl-shift-U" at KeepPassX to perform autotype of my
login/pass at a site, subsequently KeepPassX minimizes and goes to the end
of the tab list.
How can I stop that? It is a nuisance.

Hi,
i am wondering about how / where kde will cache desktop symbols,
because it will show them even if the original source picture is removed:
i have a "virtual-machine-management1" desktop entry.
with "Icon=yast-vm-management"
it shows a monitor and some tools
it seems, that this picture was in some update (i use tumbleweed)
removed.
because if i open properties it will show a other symbol (a white animal at green background).
i have more than one computers installed similar, an at one
of them also on desktop there is now (i have no idea why) shown the symbol which
i see when i open with right mouse click "properties" (animal)
in properties, there should normally shown the same symbol i see at the desktop.
but at all except one computer i see the old symbol at desktop and the animal
symbol at properties.
see here:
https://paste.opensuse.org/83344057
so my questions are:
1)
why is the old symbol still shown even if it seems to be removed
(i could not find it actually on my computer by searching for
"*yast-vm-management*" in /usr and in /home
2) where is it stored ?
3) how (what symbol) did kde assign a other symbol if the original is removed
with other words, when in the desktop entry file is a "non existing" name
of a symbol.
