The right wing boss of Madrid closes down 2141 hospital beds till October first, while patients in the waiting list has increased in 13000 people. I told you. The right wing intentionally makes the health service works badly. Then they create private hospitals instead. https://www.elsaltodiario.com/coronavirus/ayuso-cierra-mas-de-2000-camas-es… Meanwhile, Madrid is vaccinating 24 hours a day. Yes, nights too. They have a million vaccines not used. And, they are going to use private companies next to inject them. They are that inept. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.2 (Legolas))

Bluetooth pairing, Leap 15.3/KDE-Plasma
by Peter McD 05 Jul '21

Hi, My USB-Bluetooth adapter can't pair with my bluetooth headset. It worked in Leap 15.2. The bluetooth assistant, i.e. the bluetooth applet searches for the headset, but doesn't find it. hwinfo (below) outputs much information, I hope I found the interesting bit. Any ideas?

grup screen wrong rotation
by Daniel Bauer 04 Jul '21

04 Jul '21

I installed OS 15.3 on a Lenovo Ideapad Duet 3. One problem is that the grub menu, all boot messages, the decryption passphrase and the KDE-login screen are shown rotated (instead of up to down the lines go left to right). I put fbcom=rotate:1 and also tried video=efifb fbcon=rotate_all They have no effect. What else can I try? -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Málaga https://www.patreon.com/danielbauer https://www.daniel-bauer.com

Sound card configuration problem
by Wolfgang Mueller 03 Jul '21

03 Jul '21

I recently installed Leap 15.3 on my computers "hp" and "se" Configuring the sound cards by yast worked on "se" only, whereas on "hp" the following error message appears: ================================================================= An error occurred during the installation of GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller The kernel module snd-hda-intel for sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. ================================================================== The same for the other sound card, called "Cannon Lake PCH cAVS". How can I correct the kernel module snd-hda-intel and provide correct module, IO, or IRQ parameters? Thank you in advance for your help. Best regards, Wolfgang

Upgrade from Leap 15.1 to 15.2 Desktop Failure
by Jim Flanagan 30 Jun '21

30 Jun '21

Greetings, Just did an upgrade from my stable Leap 15.1 install to 15.2. I downloaded the DVD and did the upgrade from booting that. It asked me if I wanted to used the online repos as I have an internet connection so I said OK. Everything seemed to go well and booting into my KDE desktop. But clicking the gecko start menu gives an error. "Error loading QML file:file///sur/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kicker/contents/ui/main.qml:27:1: module "org.kde.plasma.private.kicker: is not installed" The system is running and I see my desktop widgets doing their thing. But I can't do anything. I can get to tty1 and login as root but I don't know what to do from there. I tried running yast in tty1 but get errors when I try software management. This system was first installed with Leap 15.0, upgraded to 15.1, now to a partially broken 15.2. Any suggestions most welcome. Jim F

encrypted Ideapad: passphrase asked twice/device descriptor read
by Daniel Bauer 30 Jun '21

30 Jun '21

So I installed OS 15.3 o my new Lenovo Ideapad Duet 3. It went ok (later I will open new threads for different smaller prolbems). I let the installer overwrite all former partitions and used "encrypted system" within the installer. So I have /dev/mmcblk0 116.48 GiB mmcblk0p1 0.5 GiB Ext4 /boot/efi mmcblk0p2 29.47 GiB Ext4 / (encrypted) mmcblk0p3 78.94 GiB Ext4 /hme (encrypted) mmcblk0p4 7.57 GiB Swap encrypted When I switch on the device I get: Attempting to decrypt master key... Enter passphrase for hd0, gpt2 (hex nmber) I enter the passphrase I takes 50 seconds until the grub menu appears, ten it shows Started Plymouth Boot Screen. Forward Passworëto Plymouth Directory Watch. Reached targets Paths. Found device /dev/disk/by-long hex number Found device /dev/disk/by-long hex nmber Found device /dev/disk/by_uuid/hex number Starting Cryptography Setup for cr_root... Starting Cryptography Setup for cr_swap... Please enter passphrase for disk cr_swap:: [6.974882] usb 1-5: device descriptor read/64, error -71 I enter the passphrase again, and it boots. Something is wrong. Passphrase should be asked only once and the 50 seconds after the first enter are loooog. What can I do? (I can repeat install if necessary as I have not copied any personal data nor did any settings until now) Thanks for hints. -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Málaga https://www.patreon.com/danielbauer https://www.daniel-bauer.com

cannot install OS on Lenovo Ideapad Duet 3
by Daniel Bauer 30 Jun '21

30 Jun '21

Hi, so just bought a small Lenovo Ideapad Duet 3. I want to replace Win with an Operating System, so I downloaded OpenSuse15.1 iso (15.1 because I have it on the other computers, to have the same). I used Suse Studio Image writer to write that ISO to an USB stick. - Start the pad so that the "Novo Button Menu" menu appears - select Boot Menu - select the stick, called "EFI USB Device (Philips USB Flash Drive)" - Opensuse Menu appears - Select Install - it says "Loading Kernel - loading initial Ram Disk" then a scrambled page filled with random characters appears after a while this disappears, the screen gets black, and nothing more happens :-( I tried with enabled and disabled secure boot. I cannot disable UEFI. How can I continue? Thanks for your help! Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Málaga https://www.patreon.com/danielbauer https://www.daniel-bauer.com
