15.4 - chgrp of files I own "Operation not permitted"?? chmod setgid must be root after chgrp?? Apparmor??
by David C. Rankin 16 Jun '22

16 Jun '22

All, I am totally bewildered at the behavior of setting basic file permissions and ownership on 15.4. I cannot change the group on files I own. (WTF?). I cannot set or unset setgid on directories on directories I own with octets (I can with the g+s syntax) Is this apparmor or some other security setting? It wasn't this way with 15.0. Take for example a directory I own and have full write capability to: 00:02 wizard:~/tmp> l -d ./ drwxr-xr-x 10 david david 4096 Jun 15 23:01 ./ Now let's create a new directory named "foo": $ md foo $ l -d ./foo/ drwxr-xr-x 2 david david 4096 Jun 16 00:03 ./foo/ So far so good. Let's change the group to "skyline" of which I'm the sole member, e.g. $ grep skyline /etc/group skyline:x:1000:david $ chown david:skyline foo chown: changing ownership of 'foo': Operation not permitted Huh?? What gives? Why can't I change directory ownership of "foo" to "skyline". That's really bad. Why would I have to be root to set group ownership on a directory I own? But I do: $ sudo chown david:skyline foo $ l -d ./foo drwxr-xr-x 2 david skyline 4096 Jun 16 00:03 ./foo Alright, can I at least set it setgid now so that the files created within it will have the proper permissions: $ chmod 2755 foo $ l -d ./foo drwxr-xr-x 2 david skyline 4096 Jun 16 00:03 ./foo What? Why didn't that work? Can I at least use 'g+s'? $ chmod g+s foo $ l -d ./foo drwxr-xr-x 2 david skyline 4096 Jun 16 00:03 ./foo What? Do I have to be root to do that? What gives? $ sudo chmod 2755 foo $ l -d ./foo drwxr-sr-x 2 david skyline 4096 Jun 16 00:03 ./foo Damnit! This is going to get old quick. I've never had to be root to set group ownership before. There are no ACL's set, so that's not it either. Is there an apparmor rule or something that is doing this? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

If it's plugged-in it should sound
by bent fender 15 Jun '22

15 Jun '22

Over 30 years of computing and it's in Leap-15.3 that for a first time I see something done the right way: with a guitar fx-board output plugged into my soundcard's 1/4" Line-In jack I can actually HEAR it *even before logging-in* (pulse is used). Interestingly enough this feature is not there in bleeding-edge Tumbleweed :-))) QUESTION: Is it detactable if some instrument is actually plugged into the sound card? If it is then this is the way to go, I mean if I plug something in it's because I want to hear it and it should be default, no? Would be nice to see this in TW as well all the same, even if it's an unintended bug! -- Artificial Stupidity will never be competitive.

tcsh does not work
by Wolfgang Mueller 15 Jun '22

15 Jun '22

Today at 13:00 my other computer suddenly became dark in KDE under Leap 15.4, recently installed. Then I opened a console and found out that tcsh does not work any more. I prepared three very simple scripts for testing purposes: -rwxr-xr-x 1 wolfgang 28 Jun 14 15:41 script.tcsh -rwxr-xr-x 1 wolfgang 27 Jun 14 15:57 script.sh -rwxr-xr-x 1 wolfgang 29 Jun 14 15:45 script.bash script.tcsh, consists of these 2 lines: #!/bin/csh echo 'Hi, world' script.sh, consists of these 2 lines: #!/bin/sh echo 'Hi, world and script.bash, consists of these 2 lines: #!/bin/bash echo 'Hi, world' Invoking them directly fails, yielding the error messages: script.tcsh: Command not found. script.sh: Command not found. script.bash: Command not found. When I invoke one of them specifying "tcsh", i.e. tcsh-prompt> tcsh script.tcsh the script hangs and has to be dropped with CTRL C. The same for tcsh-prompt> sh script.sh and tcsh-prompt> bash script.bash. The only way to make the scripts work is invoking them in a bash session. Now bash-prompt> tcsh script.tcsh hangs again, but bash-prompt> sh script.sh and bash-prompt> bash script.bash work correctly, producing the output Hi, world But even in a bash session, it is not possible to invoke the scripts directly. Anyway, I urgently need tcsh, having a lot of scripts working under tcsh or csh only. Thanks in advance for your help, Wolfgang

Leap 15.4 Darktable doesn't start
by Peter McD 15 Jun '22

15 Jun '22

Hi, Updated from Leap 15.3 to Leap 15.4 today. No problems so far, except(!) Darktable doesn't work anymore. I have been using Darktable 3.8 with Leap 15.3. After the upgrade there was Darktable 3.6, which is standard in leap 15.4. Neither Darktable icon nor console as user could start the program. console printed: peter@lux-2:~> darktable darktable: error while loading shared libraries: libdarktable.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Something is missing.

SAMBA open is very slow
by Roger Oberholtzer 15 Jun '22

15 Jun '22

I have a 15.3 system that uses SAMBA to share file systems between a couple systems. I have used that in 15.1 and it has worked very well. On 15.3 clients, I see that file open calls can be extremely slow, like taking a minute to complete. Later access is ok. It is the open that takes so long. Or so it appears. I have not changed the share or mount options from 15.1 when it was working okay. The systems were upgraded recently via zypper dup, so I expect that my original settings are the same. I see that it is the open call via strace on the programs that are accessing the files. They are doing a simple open() call. Nothing specific to SAMBA. Just a simple open. I'm not sure where to look. Google didn't provide much help. Maybe my search keys were bad. Anyone see this behavior on openSUSE? I'm running the default (I hope): 4.13.4+git -- Roger Oberholtzer

15.4 - When I switch drives, what is rewriting the grub menu? os-prober? How to turn it off? (remove it?)
by David C. Rankin 14 Jun '22

14 Jun '22

All, One annoying quirk of 15.4 is it rewrites the grub boot menu when I change drives. I don't want it to do that. I just stuck the windows drive in, and it wiped out the 15.0 chainload and boot. How do I stop this from happening? Remove os-prober (if that is what is doing it?) Or does 15.4 use something else to rewrite the grub menu when disks change? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
