[opensuse] Fw: [Bug 1128204] retext crashes with core dump

by Dave Howorth

Hmm, I just got this message from Atri, who I've seen looks at this list. I haven't migrated my bugzilla account because I don't want to continue to use the old account name. I just tried to respond and it wants details I cannot supply (I don't know what username/password are - I've never needed them - my browser supposedly knows them but apparently can't reproduce whatever information is required to respond to the 'migration portal') But more fundamentally, I don't use TW. I use Leap and I'm still on 15.0.

[opensuse] OpenSUSE: simplest way to do a version upgrade

by Darryl Gregorash

Can a version upgrade be done entirely within YaST? Specifically: 1. amend all repositories from 15.1 to 15.2 2. use Online Update to do a "force update all" Also, can this be done from within a graphical session from a user account, should it be done when logged in as root, or should it be done strictly from a command line, but not logged into a graphical session? (Hopefully I've worded that so as not to be overly confusing ;) ) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Lacking a bootable partition?

by Michael Fischer

Hello all (and hopefully Andrei), While reading the recent thread (... Zypper dup renders 15.1 to 15.2...) I got curious about my own system - which had a reinstall (15.0) a few months ago, which went...poorly. It took several installs and boot attempts to get the thing to come up (which is really odd because it was a reinstall of 15.0 on top of the same 15.0 on seemingly perfectly good hardware) Now I see that perhaps my /boot/efi is not configured correctly? bootinfoscript doesn't even find/describe the disk where /boot/efi lives, (/dev/nvme0n1) for some reason. The guts of my system is $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/nvme0n1p2 233G 9.3G 212G 5% / /dev/nvme0n1p1 500M 5.1M 495M 2% /boot/efi /dev/sdb1 458G 97G 338G 23% /home There are a few data/backup/etc. disks attached, I ignore these for simplicity $ blkid /dev/nvme0n1* /dev/nvme0n1: PTUUID="c2d48243-da0e-456d-bd55-d3bee176dbec" PTTYPE="gpt" /dev/nvme0n1p1: SEC_TYPE="msdos" UUID="5591-235C" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI system partition" PARTUUID="f95c0606-ecaa-44af-8fd0-51f9980f26a9" /dev/nvme0n1p2: UUID="65da4abd-8d32-4a12-a6d3-5f237343714d" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="0c505856-c975-4f34-9119-7a9e70d78b2c" $ sudo fdisk -l /dev/nvme0n1* Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 238.5 GiB, 256060514304 bytes, 500118192 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: C2D48243-DA0E-456D-BD55-D3BEE176DBEC Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/nvme0n1p1 2048 1026047 1024000 500M Microsoft basic data /dev/nvme0n1p2 3147776 500117503 496969728 237G Linux filesystem Disk /dev/nvme0n1p1: 500 MiB, 524288000 bytes, 1024000 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/nvme0n1p2: 237 GiB, 254448500736 bytes, 496969728 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes $ ls -al /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse/ total 3600 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 8192 Feb 14 16:29 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 8192 Feb 14 11:07 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58 Feb 14 11:07 boot.csv drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 8192 Feb 14 16:29 fw -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 70464 Feb 14 16:29 fwupx64.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 155 Feb 14 11:07 grub.cfg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1060704 Feb 14 11:07 grub.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 123904 Feb 14 11:07 grubx64.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1158688 Feb 14 11:07 MokManager.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1208968 Feb 14 11:07 shim.efi (that `fw` directory is empty) For comparison, a simple one-disk system I have (also on 15.0) which "makes sense" > sudo blkid /dev/sda1: LABEL="ESP" UUID="4A08-2713" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI system partition" PARTUUID="bd98a04b-2b82-4a57-9652-75c0189aaf2a" /dev/sda2: UUID="b34af9ea-c375-4b96-9adb-5fc88bcdf2f1" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="be766a1e-c3de-4283-b18d-0fa489b74b1f" /dev/sda3: UUID="7716718f-9d03-470a-8a21-11e2aba10247" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="45b0ca46-3e31-4dbe-8475-bfb53ecb119c" > sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda [sudo] password for root: Disk /dev/sda: 931.5 GiB, 1000204886016 bytes, 1953525168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: 2E601350-1A64-4CD5-9D45-A9E7BB0C428F Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sda1 2048 1333247 1331200 650M EFI System /dev/sda2 1333248 5527551 4194304 2G Linux swap /dev/sda3 5527552 1953525134 1947997583 928.9G Linux filesystem > ls -al /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse/ total 3492 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 3 2018 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Dec 3 2018 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58 Dec 3 2018 boot.csv -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 155 Dec 3 2018 grub.cfg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1060704 Dec 3 2018 grub.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 123904 Dec 3 2018 grubx64.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1158688 Dec 3 2018 MokManager.efi -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1208968 Dec 3 2018 shim.efi I note that the md5sums of the files in the two machines /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse are all different (not sure if that means anything or not).

[opensuse] PDF printing question.

by Carlos E. R.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have a PDF document where some pages are portrait, and some are landscape. I printed using "document viewer" in XFCE, which is "evince" (3.26.0). It has printed all in portrait, resizing those page in landscape so that they fit, using only the top half of the page. How can I print them so that it switches automatically to the proper portrait or landscape mode automatically? Another PDF viewer does it properly? Just tried Foxit (proprietary), prints correctly. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Font strangeness in GTK apps. Sometimes 10 pt, sometimes 8 pt for tabs, menus, etc..??

by David C. Rankin

All, I have noticed something strange the past few days with font sizes in GTK3 apps. Like tonight, I started firefox and all the tabs, URL/Search entry, etc.. were all much larger than normal? (app doesn't matter, all GTK+3 apps affected) Checked for updates and I'm all up to date, restarted desktop KDE3, still too big, the rebooted and started firefox again and presto the fonts were all back to normal size.... Huh?? This is more a curiosity than a problem. What ever is happening ultimately clears itself up, but doing the same thing and getting different results with software is never a good sign. There are whiffs of undefined behavior swirling around when that begins to happen. So, has anyone else experienced GTK app font-size seeming to change randomly? If so, any idea of what to check? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

by cagsm

Sigh, yet another rant post with open/suse troubles giving me the creeps with such basic stuff as booting. And again with upgrading stuff. simple 15.1 zypper dup-ed to 15.2. reboot. grub_file_filters not found error message. going nowhere. looking around on the web it is literally everywhere, claiming some too new grub 2.04 or something is incompatible with files/config from earlier 2.02 or so on non-uefi systems? what the heck? can we please do better with opensuse development? thanks. how do I fix this dang thing from that emergency prompt of grub in bootup stage? thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 15.2 - Gimp 10 - has right-side Layers & Brushes dialog Turned Upside-Down from 15.1

by David C. Rankin

All, If you open gimp on 15.2, you will find the dialog to the right is flipped upside-down with the layers on the bottom and brushes/gradients on the top. This is quite awkward since for the past decade openSUSE has had the Layers on top and brushes/gradients on the bottom. Can this be fixed before release? It is very tedious for the user to try and rearrange that dialog into a familiar layout. -- David C.
