[oS-EN] Found firefox feature tab unload
by Carlos E. R. 07 Feb '25

07 Feb '25

Hi, I just discovered a "new" firefox feature. I have a low power tiny computer which I use as server and to display videos. It often runs a firefox window with maybe five tabs, each on one youtube link that I follow, so to easily watch the next video in the series when I am on the mood. Problem: each tab eats a significant amount of CPU power. Solution: open a tab with "about:unloads" and click the "unload" button several times, to unload from memory the tabs using most resources. … [View More]

YaST .../wizard/style.qss - font-size: 10.5pt makes the interface much more readable (like installation.qss)
by David C. Rankin 07 Feb '25

07 Feb '25

All, YaST gui in TW for software management had fonts that made it look awkward. I picked around and found the .qss theme files and the installation.qss contains: * { font-family:"Source Sans 3",sans; font-size: 10.5pt } But the default style.qss has no font size and the fonts are much larger. I suspect if you have current KDE or have the Gtk version installed on a Gtk desktop then current desktop theming may provide a font size setting for YaST, but for other desktops, YaST … [View More]

Tumbleweed - Old Friend (man bashbuiltins) Not There ??
by David C. Rankin 15 Dec '24

15 Dec '24

Devs, Since I can remember, suse/opensuse has provided the convenience of collecting the bash builtin functions in a separate man page: $ man bashbuiltins On Tumbleweed, that results in: $ man bashbuiltins No manual entry for bashbuiltins Possibly, man page is not installed, try online at: https://manpages.opensuse.org/bashbuiltins It was there up though Leap 15.4. Anybody know what happened to it? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

No base modules for kernel-longterm
by Dennis R. 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Hi - I've been playing with MicroOS and plan to use it as a base for my home servers. I've installed kernel-longterm and k3s. Then I wanted to add longhorn, so I installed the pre-requisites and ran the environment_check.sh script which threw an error regarding a missing kernel module iscsi_tcp. Modprobe returned an error that the module could not be found. Checking the available kernel packages I saw that for kernel-default there is kernel-default-base which holds base modules. After … [View More]

Tumbleweed not booting: SDDM and kwallet crash
by Christoph G 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Since yesterday I can no longer boot my Tumbleweed. I updated to yesterday's and today's snapshot. I only see a black screen with a movable mouse pointer from SDDM. I checked journalctl and saw a crash with a stacktrace from SDDM. I then removed SDDM and installed lightdm. I could enter my password, but when the plasma session (both Wayland and X11) started, kwallet crashed. I assume some Qt or KDE library is broken. What details do you need to investigate further?

mbox mail viewer
by Istvan Gabor 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

Hello:I need an mbox file viewer GUI program for openSUSE. A program I can use for opening mbox email files in a local directory. Thunderbird, Evolution, Clawsmail all can open/import mbox files, but they require setting up an email account which I don't want. I only want to open local mbox files and possibly manipulate them (view, save, copy to other folder). Pine/alpine can do this nicely, but it is a terminal program. I need something similar that is GUI and can show attached images. … [View More]

Suggested repo to install the libdvdcss library in Tumbleweed?
by John Magolske 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

Hi, I'm trying to play DVDs with vlc. My understanding is that the libdvdcss library needs to be installed for this to work. Could someone suggest the best repo to add for the purpose of installing libdvdcss? And also the `zypper` command to do so? I want to make sure adding an additional repo doesn't end up creating issues in conjunction with other repos. The repos I have installed at this point are: Education download.opensuse.org-non-oss download.opensuse.org-oss download.… [View More]
