Doug McGarrett composed in private mail on 2019-05-30 22:25 (UTC-0400): ... Are you really in eastern time zone? Your timestamps suggest not. In KDE/Plasma the default panel/toolbar is at the bottom with a clock at the right end and the menu starter at the left end, just like upstream. If you don't like the default menu format, right click the starter, click Alternatives, and select the other option. One is much like recent Windows, the other like ancient Windows and ancient KDE. In the menu, YaST is in the System Section, Administrator Settings. To open yast from a shell prompt or using Alt-F2: yast opens the text mode version. yast2 opens the GUI version. Its menu/toolbar icons look like this: https://en.opensuse.org/images/6/6a/Yast-new.png Commands in Linux are nearly always case sensitive. In openSUSE, package names are commonly mixed case, but the commands themselves are almost always lower case only. That comes in handy, for making command aliases with "same" names but with one or more upper case character to distinguish it from installed app names. I only setup a printer about once every 10-15 years, so won't try to provide help how that's done in YaST or any other way. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.

[opensuse] NoMachine install fails - 15.1
by James Knott 31 May '19

31 May '19

I just tried installing NoMachine! on openSUSE 15.1. It fails with an integrity check. It worked fine on 15.0. Anyone else experience this? https://www.nomachine.com/download/download&id=5 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Once again Alt-F2 # doesn't work - 15.1
by James Knott 30 May '19

30 May '19

Used to be, I could press Alt-F2 # to enter a command to get the man page for that command. It is once again broken. For example, if I try a command such as ls, nothing happens. If the command is fstab, then the man page opens in Firefox. But if the command is mount, something called Discover opens. I get different results, depending on the command I try to get the man page for. Why is something that used to work so reliably now so flakey? This is on a fresh install of 15.1. It also didn't work properly for me in 15.0. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] No Internet Access After 15.0 > 15.1
by Mark Misulich 29 May '19

29 May '19

Hi, I did a zypper dup from 15.0 to 15.1 this morning on my laptop. The process went without a hitch, but now that it is complete I can't connect to the internet anymore either with wifi or cable connection. I am using Leap 15.1 with KDE Plasma Version5.12.8, KDE Frameworks Version 5.55.0, and QT Version 5.9.7. I had a similar problem when I did a zypper dup from 42.3 to 15.0 some time ago, so I looked up what I did to resolve the problem then and tried it again. But it isn't working. Here are the two methods I tried: 1. -I switched network settings to wicked from Networkmanager -As root, I ran in terminal: netconfig update -f -I restarted the computer -I switched back to networkmanager Didn't fix the problem this time. 2. -In terminal as root, I ran: rm /etc/resolv.conf && rcnetwork restart Didn't work, so I tried separately: #rm /etc/resolv.conv #rcnetwork restart Didn't work. Anyone have a means to fix this problem? Thanks, Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

I'm downloading and sharing openSUSE 15.1 DVD through torrent. It works quite well thanks to PEX (peer exchange), but tracker.opensuse.org reports error "torrent not found".

[opensuse] Why can't I create partitions? - 15.1 install
by James Knott 28 May '19

28 May '19

I am trying to do a fresh install of 15.1 on a system that had been 15.0. In the process, I'm trying to switch to EFI partitioning. For some reason, I cannot add partitions to the initial EFI partition. There doesn't seem to be a button to add or any other way to do it. I've tried both start with current proposal and existing partitions. Regardless of what I do, I can't move on to create more partitions. If I try the Guided install, after creating the / partition, it moves on to NTP setup, etc.. What am I missing? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 15.1 - Memtest not on boot menu
by James Knott 28 May '19

28 May '19

I installed memtest in 15.1, but it does not appear in the boot menu. This makes it a bit difficult to use, as it is supposed to be selected at boot. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 15.1 - Oracle VirtualBox Extension Pack RPM?
by James Knott 27 May '19

27 May '19

In the past, I've installed an RPM for the Extension Pack. This time, all I can find is a package with a bunch of .so files and a few others. Is there no RPM now? How do I install all those files? tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SDB nVidia Bumblebee Article
by Andrei Verovski 27 May '19

27 May '19

Hi ! 1) Its seems there is a type in this article: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_Bumblebee Scrol down till section: "OPTIONAL: Install NVIDIA driver” -> “Leap releases" Below “Add the nvidia module to blacklist:" echo "blacklist nvidia" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf sudo mkinitrd IMHO it should be “echo "blacklist nouveau" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf”. Please correct if I’m wrong here. 2) Question about section "Additional steps for Leap 15.0”. create the symlinks inside them: cd /usr/X11R6/lib64/ ln -s /usr/lib64/libEGL_nvidia.so.0 libEGL_nvidia.so.0 ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1.0.0 libGL.so ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1.0.0 libGL.so.1 ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1.0.0 libGL.so.1.0.0 …… Is this still true for Leap 15.1 ?
