Tumbleweed can't get amavisd to start
by Curtis J Blank 26 Jun '24

26 Jun '24

Hope this is the correct place to post this. New to Tumblewed not new to openSuSE New install of Tumbleweed on new server. Can't get postfix to deliver mail it gets a 421 when trying to talk to port 10025 I don't think it's firewall related because amavisd fails to start with: Insecure directory in $ENV{PATH} while running with -T switch at /usr/lib/perl5/5.38.2/Net/Domain.pm line 173. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.38.2/Amavis/Conf.pm line 1038. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.38.2/Amavis.pm line 27. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.38.2/Amavis.pm line 27. So is that indicating there are two distinct errors? PATH and Perl? Logged into the server checked all the directories I see in the PATH all are 755. This same postfix conf (older version though) is running on another openSuSE server and for the life of me I cannot find what is different so I'm stumped at the moment as to why.

need help with transferring files from Android
by Daniel Bauer 23 Jun '24

23 Jun '24

Hi, I am traveling with my laptop with OS 15.5(KDE and should copy large files from my phone to the laptop. I have sshelper on the phone. But I forgot to copy the rsync command I use at home and didn't find out (google doesn't help). I can connect via console to the phone with ssh, but all my rsync trials failed (the parameters and/or path are wrong). So I thought I use bluetooth. The connection between phone and laptop can be established, but when I want to send a file from the phone I get the message: "laptop-name doesn't accept receiving files". Googling only brought up to install KDE-connect, I did on phone and on laptop. But it doesn't find another device to pair... (Don't know if it has to do with the kind of internet connection I use: My phone is connected and I use it as a hotspot to which I connect the laptop). So, if you can help me find a way to get files from Android phone to laptop, that would be great. I don't care how. - how to make my laptop accepting files via bluetooth? - or how to make kde-connect finding phone/laptop, - or how should the rsync command in sshelper look to copy photos from phone to laptop, - or any other idea?

ssh public key authentication in Leap 15.6
by Rick Smegal 22 Jun '24

22 Jun '24

A local server I used to regularly use to logon to with public key authentication in Leap 15.5 now reports: 92.168.33.2: Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive) in Leap 15.6 using the same configuration within ~/.ssh of both distros. Obviously, the IdentityFile is unchanged. Any obvious suggestions on where I look for the change in Leap 15.6?

troubleshooting nvidia
by Paul Neuwirth 21 Jun '24

21 Jun '24

Hello list, I am struggling to troubleshoot why the nvidia proprietary driver doesn't work anymore (after some kernel updates previously). The G06 driver worked fine, including cuda some time ago... reverted to nouveau then, but now I need the proprietary driver working again with 3D acceleration and so on... I followed the instructions in the SDB. GFX card: 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1) Subsystem: eVga.com. Corp. Device 6593 Kernel modules: nouveau when starting the display manager service, after a long wait I get a very reduced GUI, with only one of three monitors working. neither the nvidia module nor nouveau gets loaded (at least the blacklisting nouveau seems to work...). But there are no Xorg logs created in /var/log/, which where my main resource for troubleshooting in the past. there's nothing in dmesg or lsmod to see about the nvidia modules... how to continue troubleshooting? finally: # rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia | sort kernel-firmware-nvidia-20230724-150500.3.9.1.noarch kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06-545.29.02-150400.9.15.1.x86_64 kernel-firmware-nvidia-gspx-G06-550.90.07-150500.11.29.1.x86_64 libva-nvidia-driver-0.0.12-lp155.2.1.x86_64 nvidia-compute-G06-32bit-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-compute-G06-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default-550.90.07_k5.14.21_150500.53-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-gl-G06-32bit-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-gl-G06-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-video-G06-32bit-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 nvidia-video-G06-550.90.07-lp155.23.1.x86_64 openSUSE-repos-Leap-NVIDIA-20230804.41e41a9-lp155.2.6.1.x86_64 pcp-pmda-nvidia-gpu-5.2.5-150400.5.6.3.x86_64 thank you and regards, Paul Neuwirth

Yast bootloader fails to start after 15.5 upgrade
by Paul Neuwirth 20 Jun '24

20 Jun '24

Hello list, I upgraded from Leap 15.4 to 15.5 and now "yast bootloader" fails to start. I get following messages in the ncurses UI: Probing file system with UUID 406791e3-4103-4da5-8235-aa35ed5be74c failed Unexpected situation found in the system. Click below to see more (English only). Continue despite the issue? After selecting "Continue": Error YaST cannot configure the bootloader because it failed to find the root file system. "Details..." reveals just: "referenced" not found the UUID 406791e3-4103-4da5-8235-aa35ed5be74c belongs to the partition used for the root filesystem (btrfs). Anyone knows how to fix that issue? I would provide y2log if necessary, but there's much information I needed to strip.. Just wanted to change some command lines in grub. I hesitate to do that manually, because I do not want end up unable to boot... Thank you all and regards, Paul Neuwirth

Computers don't remember them, you have to do this; In /etc/openvpn, 1. edit the client.conf as follows; auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/pass.txt 2. make pass.txt with; user-id password ※ Both are required for ipvanish-DE-Frankfurt-fra-c09.ovpn Now, openvpn will automatically load the user-id and password at startup.

ipvanish?
by Bill Swisher 16 Jun '24

16 Jun '24

Are there any experts on how to get this to work under openSUSE? Specifically I'm running Leap_15.5 at the moment. I could use to guidance. I can use sudo to start openvpn, pass it a configuration file, userid/password and get it running. But am unable to get past that to get it started at boot/login.
