ZFS?
by James Knott 25 Feb '22

25 Feb '22

I've come across a video and article about ZFS. How does it compare with btrfs? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlBXXdz0JKA https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2020/05/zfs-101-understandin… BTW, I'm currently running ZFS on my pfsense firewall.

Blacklist pipewire from zypper dup (TW)
by Bengt Gördén 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

Hi, As the subject says, I'd like to blacklist pipewire from dup updates in tumbleweed. Do not misunderstand me. I like pipewire and look forward to it becoming standard, when it's ready for prime time. Unfortunately, this is not the case at the moment and I rely on professionally audio with jackd etc. Anyway. What's the correct way to blacklist pipewire from zypper dup, and is it even possible without destroying the setup? PS. This might be more appropriate on the factory list but I start here.

Packman and TW
by Simon Connah 18 Feb '22

18 Feb '22

Hi, I've got a fairly new install of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed but I'm getting stuck when trying to run sudo zypper dup as Packman hasn't caught up with the main repositories. I've had this problem before but normally the Packman repository updates fairly quickly so that it is back in sync with the main repositories. Has there been any news on this issue? Thanks. Simon.

Tiny fonts in Zoiper phone since 1 week
by Bjoern Voigt 17 Feb '22

17 Feb '22

Hello, I have the problem, that my Zoiper VOIP phone application is shown with tiny fonts since around one week. I remember only two configuration changes before this happened: * Latest Tumbleweed snapshot update * I updated the /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ directory with the current font files from Windows 10 and started "sudo fonts-config" afterwards. I did not updated Zoiper (already latest version 5.5.9). I use Xorg with KDE Plasma and the Nvidia driver 470.103.01 from the Nvidia repository. Only this single application is affected. All other applications are still good. My guess is, that the Zoiper application detects incorrect DPI or font size settings since latest Tumbleweed update. In the past Zoiper already had bugs with fontconfig. Any ideas? Is it possible to display the fontconfig default fonts? Here is a Zoiper screenshot with the tiny fonts: https://paste.opensuse.org/79fe4254 Greetings, Björn

Latest TW 20220212 fails to boot after dup - maybe an nvidia issue
by Michael Hamilton 14 Feb '22

14 Feb '22

Just a heads up to anyone using nvidia considering dup'ing to 20220212 with kernel 5.16.8-1-default. After upgrading I cannot boot, not even to run level 3. It may be because I'm using the nvidia proprietary driver. I've not seen it fail to boot to runlevel 3 before, so that's a surprise. The host is not reachable via ssh and it's NFS-exports are not available. I'm seeing the following errors in the journal (after booting back to 5.16.5-1-default). BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 233s! .. #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page ..

[oS-en] Thunderbird issue
by Carlos E. R. 14 Feb '22

14 Feb '22

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Since a recent update I notice something different in Thunderbird that I don't like (Using version 91.5.0 on Leap 15.3). I'm reading the subject lines in the top panel (I don't know its name). It shows the from, to, subject, date... I go up and down using the wheel on the mouse. I locate an email I want to read, so in the bottom panel I have the email. I want to browse it, so I poise the mouse over the panel and move the wheel... nothing happens. I have to click on the panel first, then move the wheel, then the mail read panel goes up or down the email. This did not happen before, the window would follow the wheel as soon as I move the wheel. On other programs it works, it is just Thunderbird that has changed behaviour. I thought I would get used to the change, so I have waited two weeks, but no, it is still a nuisance. Is there some configuration to change back to the old behaviour? Is this a bug? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
