[opensuse] No NetworkManager-applet connected icon in Xfce notification area
by Markus Kolb 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

Hey, I'm running Xfce on Leap 15.1. In the notification area panel is the NetworkManager-applet. But there is only a visible icon if network is disconnected or during connecting there is an animation. In state connected there is only empty space in the panel and no visible icon. That's a little bit ugly. Do I miss any package? Do you know the cause?

[opensuse] Migrating 42.3 o 15.0 using zypper
by Anton Aylward 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Migrating 42.3 o 15.0 using zypper I've cloned the set of /etc/zypp/repos.d and updated them to to point to the 15.0 repositories. What I'm looking for is a zypper dist-update --use-repos /etc/zypp/15DOTZERO.repos.d but I don't see an option like that, pointing to another set of repos. What am I missing? -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Help! 15.1 System unusable due to KDE freezes
by Daniel Bauer 11 Sep '19

11 Sep '19

Hi I write from my laptop because my desktop computer has become unusable all of a sudden. It is OS 15.1 with latest updated KDE, with an Nvidia-Card. I had similar problems before, but then I thought I found the solution changing compositor version - but the fun only was for 7 days (in which I didn't reboot). This morning, after entering the password in the creen that comes after a while of inactivity, the desktop froze. I logged out and the password page showed completely scrambled. After logging in it froze again. I rebooted several times, always the same result. I let the computer down for half an hour, booted, and happily enjoyed it - for some time. Now, it's frozen again... Mouse doesn't move, keyboard is dead, but I can SSH to it from the laptop. Immediately after logging in as root via SSH I typed "dmesg" and copied the result. I didn't shorten it, because I don't know from when those messages are and which are important. I also copied /var/log/messages since the last boot: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/div/dmesg.txt https://www.daniel-bauer.com/div/mesages.txt Right now the computer - my only working place - is unusable and I hope somebody can give me a hint on what happened and what I can do. Thanks a lot!

[opensuse] Setting Chromium flags via Plasma app launcher
by Oleksii Vilchanskyi 09 Sep '19

09 Sep '19

I cannot set Chromium flags in a way so that when I press the icon "Web Browser (subtitle: Chromium)" in Plasma Application Launcher they actually are applied onto the application. What I have tried: Attempt 1: Context menu -> Edit application -> application -> command -> "chromium --disable-font-subpixel-positioning %u" Attempt 2: Context menu -> Edit application -> application -> command -> "chromium %u --disable-font-subpixel-positioning" Attempt 3: Context menu -> Edit application -> application -> advanced options -> run in terminal -> terminal options -> "--disable-font-subpixel-positioning" None of it works. This is insane. What does work: $ export CHROMIUM_USER_FLAGS="--disable-font-subpixel-positioning" $ chromium&| If you look at /usr/bin/chromium, you'll see why it works. Even when I export this variable in user's zshrc (yes I did relogin) and "run in terminal" is ticked, the envvar is _still_ ignored. Makes me wonder under which user the application launcher is launching applications. So, how do I make it work in the application launcher?

[opensuse] leap 15.1 - unable to stat pan - GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name news.pan.NZB was not provided by any .service files
by Per Jessen 09 Sep '19

09 Sep '19

After upgrading (I believe), pan has become faulty, see $SUBJ. Which upgrade I cannot say, except that pan worked in May this year. I've googled $SUBJ, and seen some suggestions that removing ~/.pan2/tasks.nzb would alleviate the problem, but it did not. I am hesitant about removing ~/.pan2 completely, I'd like to keep my settings. Any other suggestions? thanks Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (18.1°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] Encrypted swap with random key no longer working in Leap-15.1?
by Josef Wolf 09 Sep '19

09 Sep '19

Hello, For many years, I am using encrypted swap partition with a random key to avoid typing the password at boot time. Now I reinstalled openSUSE Leap 15.1, and this no longer works. I always have to type the password when booting. This is well documented in crypttab(5) and I am using it like this: raven:/ # grep swap /etc/crypttab cr_ata-ST3250310AS_6RYB6W7W-part7 UUID=a71035e1-abe3-4cb0-bee9-af42787c40cf /dev/urandom swap raven:/ # Any ideas/suggestions how to track this down? -- Josef Wolf jw(a)raven.inka.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
