[opensuse] How many packages?
by James Knott 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

I've noticed that when the software updates installs packages, there may be more than one line about successful updates. For example there was just an update and the pop up box had 2 lines, one for 7 packages and one for 6. Why not just say 13 packages successfully updated? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] CVE-2019-11477 (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack = 1) ?
by David C. Rankin 21 Jun '19

21 Jun '19

All, Anyone know whether there is a planned fix for: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11477 related: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11478 https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11479 Suggested work-around: echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack (default is 1) From El Reg: With CVE-2019-11477, a string of TCP SACK responses will cause the Linux kernel to unexpectedly hit an internal data structure limit, triggering a fatal panic. The others affecting Linux will force the system to consume resources, thus slowing it down, as Red Hat explained in its technical summary (https://access.redhat.com/security/vulnerabilities/tcpsack) today.

[opensuse] leap15.1 - difference between libjpeg.8 and libjpeg.62 ?
by Per Jessen 20 Jun '19

20 Jun '19

I'm building some fairly old code which uses libgd, which in turn uses libjpeg. ldd /usr/lib64/libgd.so [snip] libjpeg.so.8 => /usr/lib64/libjpeg.so.8 (0x00007ff6f1c45000) When I link, I get this warning: warning: libjpeg.so.8, needed by /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/7/../../../../lib64/libgd.so, may conflict with libjpeg.so.62 This is in fact caused by the Makefile including "-ljpeg', which issuperfluous, but it made me curious - what's the difference between the 8 and the 62 version? Their package descriptions are virtually identical. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (19.5°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] MacOS on Tumbleweed
by Roger Oberholtzer 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM It works. The only issue was setting up the disk in the disk utility before choosing to install. Odd thing is that it's faster than my real Mac was when I had the latest MacOS on it (too little RAM). And be sure to install qemu-audio-pa in addition to the packages listed in the instructions.

[opensuse] where to report a bug in Gajim
by stakanov 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

Gajim complains about a problem with python (attribute error in line 275). I am unsure were to report it, is this other or gnome (if it should be part of the gnome desktop). Happens in TW and in Leap so that will grant two different entries (but I have the doubt it is Python related, not with Gadjim..).

[opensuse] Dell 1110 - Unable to print - 15.1

I have a Dell 1110 printer, which is a rebranded Samung ML-1710, IIRC. When I try to configure it in openSUSE 15.1, the drivers for ML-1750 are selected. However, even though the printer is ready, I can't print, getting an error "/usr/bin/lp: Not allowed to print". Any idea what might be causing this?

[opensuse] Virtualbox: Linux guest machine is hours out of sync
by Carlos E. R. 18 Jun '19

18 Jun '19

Hi, I have a Leap 15.1 guest machine under virtualbox, but the clock is days out of sync, after restoring from "saved" state. What is the correct manner to get it to sync? I thought the guest tools would take care of that, there is no point in running a daemon to discipline the guest clock. It should just read the host clock. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] How to rerun dracut?
by David C. Rankin 18 Jun '19

18 Jun '19

All, I have an old 42.3 laptop that is getting flaky (probably a capacitor) and apparently it had a hiccup during dracut running after a zypper up and it apparently caused problems with the modules config. I can boot the recover and chroot the system (and it is fine), but how do I re-run dracut so it finishes its configuration? (current problem is at the login: prompt, I can input username (or root) and pw, but then the system says unable to log in) So there are authentication modules that were not written that need to be written I suspect) -- David C.

[opensuse] Laptop frozen after suspend
by Mikhail Ramendik 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

Hello, A laptop I have (Lenovo Yoga 510, AMD A6 based) gets frozen after suspend. Mouse cursor moves but no response to anything. This happens on both OpenSUSE 15.1 (installed, with stock kernel and with 5.1.9 kernel) and Fedora 30 (live LXDE image). I suspected the amdgpu video driver. However, the only other driver I could start successfully is fbdev. With that, after suspend there is nothing on the screen and the computer does not react to anything except power-down. I also tried going into suspend mode from a virtual text console. After resume, the console responds. However, after switching to the X console I see it is no longer responding and I can not switch back. How do I debug and report the issue? The only guide I found is for Ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend . Is there a Fedoristic guide, and/or should I follow the Ubuntu one and create a Fedora bug report with the output recommended there? -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Leap 15.1 and Intel graphics driver question
by Bjoern Voigt 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

After having many stability problems with the xf86-video-intel graphics driver, I switched to the "modesetting" driver on my Lenovo IdeaPad U430 notebook (Intel i5-4200UCPU and graphics) on Leap 42.3 and Leap 15.0. Yesterday I upgraded to Leap 15.1 and KDE Plasma did not start (TWM and Gnome had no problems). To fix this, I removed the "modesetting" driver settings from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf: Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "modesetting" # Driver "intel" # Option "AccelMethod" "glamor" # Option "AccelMethod" "none" # Option "DRI" "3" EndSection Now KDE Plasma starts again with the Intel driver. My questions: - Does anyone successfully run the "modesetting" driver with Intel graphics? - Do I need an additional configuration for "modesetting" and Leap 15.1? - As I was running the xf86-video-intel some time ago, I decided to update the driver the Git-master. The Leap 15.1 xf86-video-intel driver seems to be updated last time on Sep 19 2018. Is this recent enough or should I update to make the driver more stable?

[opensuse] Laptop freezes after lid closing/reopening
by Mikhail Ramendik 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

Hello, In Leap 5.1 witj minimum X configuration (icewm) I close the lid of the laptop. Then when I reopen it I find the system frozen. The mouse cursor is still moving but no reaction to any clicks, nor to any key presses (including Ctrl+Alt+F1 and Ctrl+Alt+Backspace). How do I debug/fix this? Ideally I'd like the system to go into suspend-to-RAM on lid closure and then come back. If not possible, at least keep it on but don't freeze it. (Honestly I'm having too many hardware-related issues; I think I should try something more bleeding-edge like Fedora to see if these were fixed in the meantime?) -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Virtualbox: two guest Linux machines with the same IP. How do I change it?
by Carlos E. R. 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

Hi, I cloned a virtual machine, telling it to change the MAC address. But Linux Leap 15.1 refuses to recognize the change of MAC and thus it gets the same IP from the router as the original. I'm using "Bridged Adapter" mode, in order to get internet and connect via ssh to the machine. I don't like bridged mode, but I don't know another mode that gets me both things in virtualbox. The host MAC is 00:21:85:16:2d:0b The guests MAC is 00:08:27:44:87:3a - on both guests. How can I force different MACs and thus different IPs? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] thunderbird enigmail delete receive rule from already deleted key
by Simon Becherer 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

Hi, i have had receive rule for different emailaddresses. these rules worked fine. now after this keys are outdated, i deleted them in enigmail/edit_keys. after that i got new valid key for this email addresses. if i now try to send to one of this addresses, normally it should (also without specific rule) find the valid key. but it did not. i think the reason is the old rule. if i select manually encrypt, it opened a window where i could manually select the new key for this emailaddess. and very at the end of the key list i see the old entry for this emailaddress, but marked with a empty red square. here i have no option to delete this entry. if i go direct over the menue enigmail/edit_receive_rule/ (where i could delete rules) this entry did NOT exist. so how to delete this (somehow in background still existing) entry manually????? thanks, simoN -- www.becherer.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Setting up JACK?
by Mikhail Ramendik 17 Jun '19

17 Jun '19

Hello, I would like to set up my Leap 15.1 system so that one program (GrandOrgue) uses the JACK audio server. For Web browsers etc, I'd rather have PulseAudio working through JACK, so that volume control is available for them; but before I get to that I need to run JACK. And for now there is no PulseAudio on the system and no sound in browsers. There is ALSA, and aplay works. hw:1,0 is the proper output so I had to create /etc/asound.conf. However, by default JACK is off. I had to install QJackCtl. If I just strat JACK, it fails. But if I go to setup, select the card, then start JACK, it succeeds, and then GrandOrgue works with it. So, question one: how can I make JACK start by default, ideally even before user login, and with the right card (hw:1,0) selected? And also, GrandOrgue, when configured for JACK, complains that it cannot use real-rime scheduling (RR/5) (1: Operation not permitted). So question 2: how do I fix this? (In Fedora this one gets fixed if you add the user to the jack group, but I see no jack group in OpenSUSE). -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Ideally I'd want to keep Network Manager, but to have a default connection for my home wi-fi, and only start nm-applet if I want some other network or if I am experiencing problems.

[opensuse] Major delays (in IceWM, TWM) with most any GUI window?
by Mikhail Ramendik 16 Jun '19

16 Jun '19

Hello, It turned out that nm-applet was not the only thing that triggers major delays in icewm in my new installation. Starting yast or vlc or firefox also leads to response becoming delayed by seconds and sometines minutes. Stopping the application does not help, only Ctrl+Alt+Backspace does. If I switcht to a virtual text terminal and run top, I see no significant CPU load. xterm does not cause the issue. Nor does icem's built-in Help. Nor XScreenSaver preferences. But I installed qt-creator - and it does cause the issue. So it's not just a gtk thing. Then I tried a TWM session and the issue happened (with yast) in that session as well.

[opensuse] Banish amdgpu video driver
by Mikhail Ramendik 16 Jun '19

16 Jun '19

Hello, I am suspecting that the "long delays" issue I am having is caused by the amdgpu video driver. However, I can not even test this, because I can't find a way to banish it. I tried adding a file with modesetting to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d ; no luck. I tried adding "blacklist amdgpu" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf - no luck, the module still loads. How do I banish this driver to see if this resolves the issue? Also, the screen is a touch screen. So I suspect that with another driver I might lose the touch functionality. But first, I need to make sure whether this driver is at fault at all. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
