Dear listmembers,
maybe you readily know, but anyway: if you still use xterm and have a high
resolution display (i. E. 3840x2560 like me) you will find that the fonts
available "off the shelf" are between hard to read and hardly readable.
In order to get this usable again (and you may use different approaches, I
like this one because it works for all users the same way ... please do the
following:
- install terminus fonts ...
zypper install zypper install terminus-bitmap-fonts
- edit /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/XTerm ...
- change as follows:
Replace the entries for VT100.font and VT100wideFont by
*VT100.font: -xos4-terminus-medium-r-normal--32-320-72-72-c-160-
iso10646-1
*VT100.boldFont: -xos4-terminus-bold-r-normal--32-320-72-72-c-160-
iso10646-1
Other than that: in order to improve the situation on TTY1 .... TTY6, please
modify /etc/vconsole.conf:
New: FONT=latarcyrheb-sun32.psfu
---
Old: FONT=eurlatgr.psfu
This will make the console fonts readable.
Best

I've noticed there have been some recent (March 13) changes to
Wireshark. Previously, when starting, it was necessary to enter the
root password. Now, no password is required, but it's no longer
possible to select an interface to monitor. This makes it somewhat
useless for capturing traffic. About all that can be done is read
existing capture files. If opened from a root terminal session, it
works normally. I then checked the application in the menu and found
the application command had changed from /usr/bin/xdg-su -c
/usr/bin/wireshark %f to wireshark %f, which runs it as a mere mortal,
in that useless mode. Why was this done? After restoring the full
command, it now works properly.

I'm running 15.1 & KDE. One thing I've noticed is swap use increases
through time, even though I'm not even using all the real memory.
Eventually, it gets to the point where my system bogs down and can
become unusable. At the moment, I'm running 13.6 GiB of 15.6 memory and
4.1 of 24 swap. Why should swap be used at all, when there's still a
significant amount of free memory?

I have installed the NVIDIA CUDA RPMS on Tumbleweed. Although they are
packaged by NVIDIA for Leap 15.1, they seem to have installed.
I am trying to build some neural network software
(https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/). It works quite well as just a
CPU-based program. However, I am hoping to use this to process many
10s of thousands of high-resolution images. So I want/need to build it
with CUDA/GPU support.
When running nvcc, I get a message that it does not support gcc
versions newer than 8. On Tumbleweed, I have gcc 9. As one does.
What is the best way to have two versions of gcc installed? I'm not
sure exactly which gcc components nvcc uses. So I guess it would be
the most of gcc8. Is it possible to install gcc8 in such a way that it
does not become the default compiler? I plan on using it only for this
purpose. The result should be a DSO library that I can then link
against in my applications when they are built with gcc 9 or whatever
the Tumbleweed default compiler is.
As an alternative, anyone know if the CUDA package
(https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3ABumblebee-Project%3AnVidia%3…)
in can be used in OBS? As it downloads things, I suspect OBS will not
allow this. No idea. I also would need the version of gcc that CUDA 9
requires. Then I could build the package there, and have a new
openSUSE package to boot.
Pros and cons of both approaches?

We are setting up a cluster of computers that will be connected via a
10 GB network.
The switch we are considering is something like
https://www.netgear.com/business/products/switches/smart/XS748T.aspx
The sales blurb says:
Up to eight 10-Gigabit Ethernet links can be aggregated into a
virtual 80‑Gbps connection
In openSUSE, would this be related to bonding slaves? I have never
used this. The goal would be that one computer (primarily a file
server type of thing) has a high bandwidth stream for reading and
writing data to the switch, where numerous other computers read and
write via their single cable. This server would have, say, 4 10 GBit
Ethernet ports connected to the switch. Ideally these would appear to
be a single network.
Am I thinking correctly? Anyone have any advice on this kind of thing?
We are targeting an openSUSE Leap system for this server.

Hello
I'm trying to setup an LDAP server on Leap 15.1
>From this document
https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/security/single-html/book.secur…
I ran
zypper install 389-ds
yast2 ldap-server
These commands do not exist
The 389 Directory Server is controlled by 3 primary commands:
dsctl
Manages a local instance and requires root permissions. Requires you
to be connected to a terminal which is running the directory server
instance. Used for starting, stopping, backing up the database and more.
dsconf
The primary tool used for administration and configuration of the
server. Manages an instance's configuration via its external interfaces.
This allows you to make configuration changes remotely on the instance.
dsidm
Used for identity management (manage users, groups, passwords etc.).
The permissions are granted by access controls, so users can reset their
own password or change details of their own account, for example.
Creating the 389 Directory Server Instance
You create the instance with the dscreate command. It can take a
configuration file (*.inf) which defines the instance configuration
settings. Alternatively, the command can be run in an interactive mode.
All the configuration/setup fail with
Details: No such file or directory - /usr/sbin/dscreate
or
/usr/sbin/dscreate
/usr/sbin/dscreate: No such file or directory
How do you setup LDAP when the tools are missing
Searching for dscreate only finds this
/usr/share/dirsrv/inf/dscreate.map
Any ideas? This must be a bug with the packaging of 389-ds
Regards,

Dear listmembers,
I am (AFAIK) bound to using KDM rather than i. e. using SDDM because I need
two in parallel X11 - sessions running on tty7 and tty8 in my case.
The disadvantage right now: because the resolution of my display is quite high
(3840x2160) the fonts and the graphics of the login display are *very* small
(too small for my old eyes :-))
Anyone having a solution on how to enlarge the size of the KDM login - window?
Thank you for looking into this,
take care
