SIM/smart card reader
by Dave Howorth 24 Jun '22

24 Jun '22

I've bought a generic USB-based SIM/smart card reader to see if I can read a SIM. It came without any useful instructions or software. I have no idea about the infrastructure of such software/hardware on linux. I've discovered and installed pcsc-lite and pcsc-ccid and pcsc-tools When I plug in the reader, it's reported in the journal: Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse kernel: usb 3-9.4.4.4: new full-speed USB device number 12 using xhci_hcd Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse mtp-probe[2189]: checking bus 3, device 12: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-9/3-9.4/3-9.4.4/3-9.4.4.4" Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse kernel: usb 3-9.4.4.4: New USB device found, idVendor=2ce3, idProduct=9563 Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse kernel: usb 3-9.4.4.4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse kernel: usb 3-9.4.4.4: Product: EMV Smartcard Reader Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse kernel: usb 3-9.4.4.4: Manufacturer: Generic Jun 24 16:46:32 acer-suse mtp-probe[2189]: bus: 3, device: 12 was not an MTP device pcscd is running but pcsc_scan just says Waiting for the first reader... Anybody know anything about these devices and can advise or point me to good documentation?

Well I can confirm that the 15.4 installer is working now onto this specific system. Thanks everybody for helping. On 6/24/22 12:47, George Pappap wrote: > That was about 15.3.

Synaptics Touchpad - Not Optimally Configured with xinput, xf86-input-synaptics needed
by David C. Rankin 24 Jun '22

24 Jun '22

All, After the 15.4 update, my touchpad was slow and I couldn't program a 0.5 second disabling of the touchpad when a key was pressed resulting in problems typing and my palm contacting the touchpad. I have always used syndaemon to disable the touchpad while typing, but it was nowhere to be found. synclient also provides a number of features not available with xinput. Both syndaemon and synclient are in xf86-input-synaptics. Installed, and copied the 70-synaptics.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and restarted X and presto, my touchpad is zinging away again and syndaemon disables the touchpad while typing (but not for control or control+key combos). If your touchpad is a synaptics device, installing xf86-input-synaptics provides a great deal more in configuration. You can check your touchpad with `xinput --list`, e.g. $ xinput --list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Microsoft Microsoft 3-Button Mouse with IntelliEye(TM) id=9 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Generic Mouse id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP HD Webcam [Fixed]: HP HD Web id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP WMI hotkeys id=14 [slave keyboard (3)] My synaptics touchpad has id=13. synclient -l will provide a detailed list of capabilities and options (and to a lesser extent 'xinput --list-props 13' will provide the options reachable through xinput) -- David C.

I can't see mails I send to this list?? Only replies. I never know if the mails I send make it.
by David C. Rankin 21 Jun '22

21 Jun '22

All, Since my crappy ISP started blocking mail from opensuse to my suddenlinkmail.com account I have had to switch my account to gmail. The problem is I never see the mails I send, not my original post or my replies to the list. Anybody else using gmail know how to fix this? I also can't use the hyperkitty mail interface because my account still has the suddenlinkmail.com address as my e-mail and when I attempt login, it "sends a verification e-mail..." to my suddenlink address which of course bounces and I never get it. Suggestions? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Vagrant + libvirt: question about removing boxes
by Nicolas Kovacs 21 Jun '22

21 Jun '22

Hi, I'm running the Vagrant/libvirt combination on an OpenSUSE Leap 15.4 box. It's running nicely and performs way better than the Vagrant/VirtualBox setup I've used before. My user (microlinux) is a member of the 'libvirt' system group: $ groups users libvirt So far I've added three boxes to my system: $ vagrant box list roboxes/centos7 (libvirt, 4.0.2) roboxes/oracle7 (libvirt, 4.0.2) roboxes/rhel7 (libvirt, 4.0.2) These boxes are stored in ~/vagrant.d: $ find .vagrant.d/ -name *.img .vagrant.d/boxes/roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-centos7/4.0.2/libvirt/box.img .vagrant.d/boxes/roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-oracle7/4.0.2/libvirt/box.img .vagrant.d/boxes/roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-rhel7/4.0.2/libvirt/box.img $ du -sh .vagrant.d/ 2,4G .vagrant.d/ After initializing and running the boxes, they seem to be copied to /var/lib/libvirt/images: # cd /var/lib/libvirt/images/ # ls *box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-centos7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-oracle7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-rhel7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img Let's say I want to remove these boxes, here's what I would do: $ vagrant box remove roboxes/rhel7 $ vagrant box remove roboxes/oracle7 $ vagrant box remove roboxes/centos7 The boxes are effectively wiped from ~/vagrant.d: $ du -sh .vagrant.d/ 56K .vagrant.d/ $ find .vagrant.d/ -name *.img But their copies still remain in /var/lib/libvirt/images: # cd /var/lib/libvirt/images # ls *box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-centos7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-oracle7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img roboxes-VAGRANTSLASH-rhel7_vagrant_box_image_4.0.2_box.img So here's my question: is there a way to get 'vagrant box remove' also wipe the images in /var/lib/libvirt/images?

The end of pop3 on gmail?
by Gustav Degreef 21 Jun '22

21 Jun '22

Hello, I've searched on google for a solution but from what I've read, it seems like thunderbird will no longer be able to access gmail accounts using pop3. I received a notice from google, that after May 30 I will no longer be ale to retrieve mail using username/password. Oauth 2.0 apparently is only available for imap and not pop3 and 2sv with app passwords is not possible with thunderbird. Is there an alternative way to keep using thunderbird with pop3, so as to not have to leave mail on google's servers?
