"This video cannot be played"
by Douglas McGarrett 27 May '22

27 May '22

I have received a number of messages from various sources with a video attached, but across the face of what must be the first screen, is the message, "This video cannot be played." I'm curious--what kind of video is being sent that cannot be player, and why? --doug

by James Knott 26 May '22

26 May '22

In openSUSE 15.1, memtest, as installed, would not work with UEFI. Has this been fixed in 15.2? There is a version on the memtest website that will work with it. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

OS install on USB-C disk on a laptop
by Cyrus 18 Mar '22

18 Mar '22

Hello!, I have a work machine I cannot reinstall (comes with Windows), Latitude 5420. Given it has only one M2 slot, I'm exploring using a Sabrent nano USB-C external disk to run opensuse from it, but I'm wondering if it will work properly in a laptop scenario (suspend/resume). Can anybody share their experience with similar setups?. Regards, Cyrus.-

[opensuse] Bug in usb drivers? "Not enough bandwidth for new device state"
by Markus Egg 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

SuSE Tumbleweed with newest updates and upgrades. 5.7.1-1-default #1 SMP Wed Jun 10 11:53:46 UTC 2020 (6a549f6) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Just recently started to give error messages when plugging in e.g. USB Headsets, Arduino Uno into some Exsys USB 3.0 hub. This was working fine in Tumbleweed before and in e.g. SuSE 13.1. The error message is e.g.: [...]usb 2-1.4.3: new full-speed USB device number 10 using xhci_hcd [...]usb 2-1.4.3: New USB device found, idVendor=2341, idProduct=0043, bcdDevice= 0.01 [...]usb 2-1.4.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=220 [...]usb 2-1.4.3: Manufacturer: Arduino (www.arduino.cc) ...serialnumber... [...]kernel: usb 2-1.4.3: Not enough bandwidth for new device state. [...]kernel: usb 2-1.4.3: can't set config #1, error -28 This error message started on Jun 04, after making an update (zypper up) on June 3rd. A USB3.0 stick is working on the Exsys Hub. The Arduino is working on some other USB 3.0 Port of another hub. Regression? Any hints how to get this away? Found only another occurrence of this bug: http://opensuse92.rssing.com/chan-20813128/all_p1407.html Best regards -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Searchable database on the web?
by Simon Connah 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

Hi, This is probably an idiotic question but is there a searchable database of all OpenSUSE Tumbleweed packages available on the web at all? I'm used to Ubuntu, where I can go to https://packages.ubuntu.com/ and search the package list. I know I can do that using YaST, but sometimes I find it more convenient to do it using a web browser. Thanks. Simon.

Strange problems with browsers and thunderbird
by Markus Egg 27 Feb '22

27 Feb '22

I installed SuSE Tumbleweed 20220202 snap since I read about some problems with SuSE Leap 15.3 . Installation failed to adress the online repositories but installed anyway. Afterwards I tried the installed firefox which constantly fails for certain webpages like www.suse.com www.nvidia.de github.com Funnily enough other sites like www.fosshub.com are working ok, there is no network problem since Windows 10 on the same machine and a laptop with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on the same network are doing just fine. Thunderbird refuses connections to email servers which are working fine on my Ubuntu Laptop. Then I tried chromium from the repos: same problem. Opera from the repos: same problem. I also tried the Mozilla version from here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/97.0.1/ and the Mozilla version of thunderbird from here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/91.6.1/ Still the same problem. Started firefox with a complete new ~/.mozilla : no change. What is wrong with Tumbleweed nowadays? Do I have to say goodbye to OpenSuSE after more than 20 years? :-( BR

running an ARM domu under xen?
by Per Jessen 27 Feb '22

27 Feb '22

I'll just throw it out here, you never whom I might hit - for compiling/building stuff for small ARM boards, I have a dedicated machine with a qemu-arm "system" set up, to run on an openSUSE jeos ARM image. This works really well, but it's a little cumbersome. I got wondering if it might be possible to run a virtual ARM guest too, on xen? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.1°C)
