Thunderbird-Compact-Now-Message:

Hi, my question for you is that I continue to receive a 'Compact folders', (message while using Thunderbird). It's annoying, and I am not certain if I should go ahead and confirm this. I have attached a screenshot to openSUSE paste to show the exact message here: -> https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/d52cd4e0bc35 Your suggestions would be very helpful. -Thanks

openSUSE:slowroll:
by Paul Graff 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Any more word on openSUSE slowroll? Everything seems easy enough as far as swapping the repositories out. My concern would be doing that on a fully patched Tumbleweed machine right now. I do have a backup solution tested and ready to be implemented if need be. Would it be better off to just start from scratch and implement slowroll repositories instead of on a current updated Tumbleweed? Would it cause problems with the nvidia G05 driver currently in use here? Thanks

Sound support not loaded
by Marc Chamberlin 14 Jan '24

14 Jan '24

Hi, My new Dell XPS 15 9530 laptop is unhappy because it's sound system is not working under OpenSuSE 15.5 x64 with the KDE/Plasma desktop. When I tried to "configure" the sound system I got the following error message - The kernel module snd-sof-pci-intel-tgl for sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. The YaST2 hardware info tells me the following about my sound system - 44: PCI 1f.3: 0401 Multimedia audio controller [Created at pci.386] Unique ID: nS1_.PrPWIztnFa0 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.3 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:1f.3 Hardware Class: sound Model: "Intel Multimedia audio controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x51ca SubVendor: pci 0x1028 "Dell" SubDevice: pci 0x0beb Revision: 0x01 Memory Range: 0x62892a0000-0x62892a3fff (rw,non-prefetchable) Memory Range: 0x6289000000-0x62890fffff (rw,non-prefetchable) IRQ: 16 (no events) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d000051CAsv00001028sd00000BEBbc04sc01i00" Driver Info #0: Driver Status: snd_hda_intel is not active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_hda_intel" Driver Info #1: Driver Status: snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl is not active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Is there a sound guru around who can help me make my poor laptop make noise when I want to watch/run my favorite YouTube/Netflix/Zoom/Clementine apps? Thanks as always, in advance, for your time and patience with me... Marc

I'm about to install Leap 15.5 on a machine with an nVidia GTX 1650 card, but am confused over which of the G04, G05 or G06 driver sets I should be using. Any words of guiding wisdom would be welcome. -- Robin K Wellington "Harbour City" New Zealand

OT- semi and demi - Old and Older hardware - iso DVD active partition not found
by joe a 10 Jan '24

10 Jan '24

ASUS A7V733-c. Created DVD's from ISO images (Tumbleweed, a few days old) and get "active partition not found". Round and round . . . tried some older Knoppix, Mint, Windows rescue DVD's (R) and they boot fine. Thinking "These new DVD, Staples labled, are, umm, less than good", burned another on an older SONY blank. Same error. Seems no ISO images of recent vintage want to boot. Tried USB bootables, but the BIOS only knows USB FDD and USB ZIP, so, no boot either, just blinking cursor upper left corner.

Konsole issue
by Marc Chamberlin 10 Jan '24

10 Jan '24

Hello OpenSuSE, I have recently encountered an annoying problem on - marc@wa7pxw:/etc> more os-release NAME="openSUSE Leap" VERSION="15.5" ID="opensuse-leap" ID_LIKE="suse opensuse" VERSION_ID="15.5" ... KDE Frameworks Version 5.103.0 Qt Version 5.15.8 (built against 5.15.8) marc@wa7pxw:/etc> with Kconsole that I am unable to figure out how to fix. The "Input Cursor" (I don't know what it is called) is being shown at a wrong location. Initially it is shown at a position that is quit a ways from the end of the line's title (the stuff before the '>' prompt. As I type in characters on a line the "Input Cursor" gets further an further out front at away from where characters are actually inserted in the line. I will try to show what is happening visually below where 'I' is the location of the "Input Cursor" - marc@wa7pxw:~/bin> I marc@wa7pxw:~/bin> a I marc@wa7pxw:~/bin> aaaaa I I hope this survives the text reformatting that is done after sending this to the group via email. Can anyone tell me what is going on, where I might have screwed the configuration for Konsole up, or if an update clobbered me? I have search as many of the font and icon setting tools that I know about, (System Settings, QT5 settings, QKT6 settings) perhaps there is yet another tool I should be using? As always, many thanks in advance to helping me solve this issue! Marc

VPS providers who provide TW as a default option?
by Simon Connah 09 Jan '24

09 Jan '24

I've found lots of VPS providers who offer Leap but I haven't found any that offer TW. Does anyone have any recommendations? I know you can do it by using your own images or some other method but I'd rather just have it already done. I normally use Linode or Vultr.
