[opensuse] With 15.2 test builds, do we zypper dup to next build or zypper up?
by David C. Rankin 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

All, I should know this, but the old gray matter is showing signs of wear. If I install 15.2 for testing, and an additional test build is put out, can we zypper dup to the current testbuild or do we need to zypper up. IIRC it is dup, (but we will look before we Leap here -- no pun intended -- well, sort of...) -- David C.

[opensuse] Theme(s) for Thunderbird and Firefox
by Basil Chupin 11 Mar '20

11 Mar '20

A short while ago I saw Firefox on a Windows machine and was most impressed by seeing the pages BLACK with text and pix from websites displayed in their proper colours (ie as they normally appear on a "normal" FF with its all white background colour). Well, if you prefer not to have your eyes staring at a white background all the time then you can (in the Tools>Addons) the theme called DARK READER. Also, the same applies to Thunderbird -- you can have the same black background to look at which is more comfortable on the eyes. The theme fo TB is called DEEP DARK. FYI.

[opensuse] HP Device Manager
by Ken Schneider - openSUSE 10 Mar '20

10 Mar '20

I want to use HP Device Manager to set up my HP M277dw device that requires an HP driver but openSUSE has disabled the ability to install the driver from HP. This prevents me from setting up the printer with all of it's features and difficult to setup and use the scanner function. Does anyone have a work-around for installing the proper driver for this printer? Or how-to to undo a "feature" that paranoid people thinks is "unsafe in the HPlip package. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Tumbleweed and NVIDIA's drivers
by Roger Oberholtzer 09 Mar '20

09 Mar '20

A couple weeks ago, an update of the kernel in Tumbleweed caused problems if one was using the NVIDIA drivers. I now find that I need to start using those drivers (NVIDIA GPU code that I need to use). Has the problem been resolved? That is, will the NVIDIA drivers and a current Tumbleweed play nice together? Since there has been so little discussion, I suspect that all is working as expected. I have been happily using the Nouveau driver. But I guess I cannot do so any more... -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Running Tumbleweed. And Firefox. For a while, I was able to get FF to open in Google, but now it has reverted to the OpenSuse screen. This is a PITA! When I click on the FF icon, I want it to open in Google, because right after I click on the icon, I start typing the question, and it turns out that the Suse screen doesn't know anything about that and I have to type it over again. How do I get back so the icon opens in Google? Thanx--doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Tumbleweed yast partitioner
by Michael Hamilton 07 Mar '20

07 Mar '20

I've noticed that the Tumbleweed yast partitioner doesn't complete all operations before exiting when finished is press. I can see the cryptsetup and mkfs running as a processes after it exits. In my case this would be for making a encrypted ext4 or xfs whole disk partition and file system on an external USB drive. Is it supposed to work that way? If so, perhaps it should tell the user not to do anything like unplug the drive before checking that all associated processes have completed.

[opensuse] CUDA versions on Tumbleweed
by Roger Oberholtzer 06 Mar '20

06 Mar '20

I am trying to set up a CUDA ecosystem that includes building CUDA based programs. I am targeting Tumbleweed. I have sorted out the details of getting CUDA 10.2 to compile stuff. I am now trying to get the run environment set up. I know that this is a known fun area. Anyway, I have some questions: CUDA 10 requires NVIDIA drivers >= 410.48. For Tumbleweed, this is satisfied for the G05 drivers (cards > 600). Unfortunately, the G04 drivers for older cards (which I have in my development system) is 390.132. When I try to run my shiny new program, I get: CUDA Error: CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runtime version Which seems about right. As it turns out, in the CUDA development repo (http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/opensuse15/x86_64/) there are newer G04 versions. However, these seem not to be specifically for Tumbleweed's 5.5.6 kernel. I am guessing that installing one of these will mess everything up. The Legacy info page at NVIDIA (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/legacy-gpu/) says that older cards are supported in the 390 series of drivers. But they seem to supply a newer version in the CUDA development area. Question 1: Why might NVIDIA not be supplying the latest G04 drivers in the Tumbleweed repo? It seems the drivers do exist. Anyone know why they are not the versions provided? Question 2: Has anyone installed a newer G04 (>= 410.48) driver on a current Tumbleweed? If so, how? Just installing the RPMs seems iffy. I am not certain there is a .run install with the newer G04 drivers. Or at least not that I can tell. I am guessing that I should just get a new NVIDIA card and skip all this nonsense. But where is the challenge in that? -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

And when I have a dongle I extract it, wait for 30 seconds to be sure it unloaded and plug it. It is possible that windows sets the BT hardware in a non recoverable undocumented energy saving state.

[opensuse] Leap 15.1 transactional server, temporarily remount volumes rw
by Paul Neuwirth 06 Mar '20

06 Mar '20

Hi, I like that idea/concept with the transactional servers very and I am currently testing it. Especially during setting up everything, it would be a great help to remount the current mounted snapshot with write access, so you could use a package manager with UI, like yast. It leads to many reboots, to find out, there are other packages necessary, etc. The shell command of transactional-update is a big help, but in that chroot environment, many tests cannot be done (complexer software/services, kernel modules, etc etc). So is there any way to get the current system (temporarily) r/w? mount -o rw doesn't work, even the command seems to succeed, but it still says "Read-only file system" on opening a file with write permission. If it is currently not possible, would it be hard (or discussable) to implement?

[opensuse] switched fabric using qla2xxx pci card (fwd)
by Paul Neuwirth 05 Mar '20

Hello group, I am trying to evaluate use of fibre channel switched fabric. But I am not able to get it working (openSUSE Leap 15.1). I would appreciate, if anybody knows something or where to find (working) instructions. All instructions I found refer to old/or proprietary drivers/methods (kernel 2.6 or older). I use following hardware: -HP branded (AE312 - 60001) QLogic Corp. ISP2432 4G HBA PCIe -IBM branded (2005-B16) Brocade 200E 16 Port FC switch -DS14MK2 Disk Shelf All of those products are EOS and I am not able to get proprietary drivers or firmware updates. According to switch config everything looks fine, I even put all devices into one zone. According to switch configuration, all the targets should be accessible by the initiators: https://www.swabian.net/extern/opensuse/fcaccessibility.png Having set up following options for qla2xxx module ql2xmaxqdepth=16 qlport_down_retry=10 ql2xloginretrycount=30 ql2xextended_error_logging=1 I get plenty of messages I do not understand, but it contains matching WWPN's of the fabric: [ 1050.235686] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28d9:2: Async-gnlist WWPN 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:d6 [ 1050.235688] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28da:2: Async-gnlist - OUT WWPN 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:d6 hndl 0 [ 1050.235692] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28d9:2: Async-gnlist WWPN 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:47:4c [ 1050.235693] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28d9:2: Async-gnlist WWPN 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:46:e5 [ 1050.235694] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28d9:2: Async-gnlist WWPN 22:0d:00:0a:33:48:14:36 [ 1050.235695] qla2xxx [0000:01:00.0]-28d9:2: Async-gnlist WWPN 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:47:3b [and many more] I uploaded the dmesg output from rmmod && modprobe: https://www.swabian.net/extern/opensuse/fcdmesg.txt some information about used firm/software: HBA (shown on boot): HPAE312A PCI Fibre Channel ROM BIOS Version 3.29 Subsystem Vendor ID 103C Copyright (C) QLogic Corporation 1993-20 Firmware Version 8.01.02 Switch: > version Kernel: 2.4.19 Fabric OS: v5.1.0b Made on: Fri May 26 23:48:35 2006 Flash: Sun Dec 3 12:44:30 2006 BootProm: 4.5.3 Switch > zoneinfo [...] Effective configuration: cfg: testzoning zone: fc_zone1 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:b4 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:d5 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:d6 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:dd 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:de 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:45:e1 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:46:e2 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:46:e5 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:47:3b 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:47:49 22:08:00:0a:33:0c:47:4c 22:08:00:0a:33:12:62:aa 22:08:00:0a:33:12:64:33 22:08:00:0a:33:12:64:3f 22:0c:00:0a:33:48:14:36 22:0c:00:0a:33:48:14:37 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:55 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:57 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:d5 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:d5 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:b4 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:b4 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:d6 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:d6 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:dd 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:dd 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:de 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:de 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:45:e1 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:45:e1 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:46:e2 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:46:e2 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:46:e5 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:46:e5 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:47:3b 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:47:3b 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:47:49 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:47:49 22:0a:00:0a:33:0c:47:4c 22:09:00:0a:33:0c:47:4c 22:0a:00:0a:33:12:62:aa 22:09:00:0a:33:12:62:aa 22:09:00:0a:33:12:64:33 22:0a:00:0a:33:12:64:33 22:09:00:0a:33:12:64:3f 22:0a:00:0a:33:12:64:3f 22:0d:00:0a:33:48:14:36 22:0e:00:0a:33:48:14:36 22:0d:00:0a:33:48:14:37 22:0e:00:0a:33:48:14:37 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:54 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:56 1,16 1,17 1,18 1,19 > switchShow switchName: fcsw1 switchType: 34.0 switchState: Online switchMode: Native switchRole: Principal switchDomain: 1 switchId: fffc01 switchWwn: 10:00:00:05:1e:03:d8:ae zoning: ON (testzoning) switchBeacon: OFF Area Port Media Speed State ============================== 16 0 id N2 Online L-Port 9 public, 7 private 17 1 id N2 Online L-Port 6 public, 10 private 18 2 id N4 Online F-Port 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:56 19 3 id N4 Online F-Port 50:01:43:80:04:c5:9e:54 20 4 id N4 No_Light 21 5 id N4 No_Light 22 6 id N4 No_Light 23 7 id N4 No_Light 24 8 id N4 No_Light 25 9 id N4 No_Light 26 10 id N4 No_Light 27 11 id 2G No_Light 28 12 id N4 No_Light 29 13 id N4 No_Light 30 14 id N4 No_Light 31 15 id N4 No_Light Thank you and regards, Paul -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] OS LEAP on a USB stick
by David T-G 05 Mar '20

05 Mar '20

Hi, all -- I have a media server stuffed full of hard drives, and I have to date been using Knoppix with a Casper partition on a USB drive to run it. The idea was that 1) replacing the boot media should be easy (and I clone the stick to another every once in a while) and 2) upgrading should be easy (by just whipping up a fresh stick with the latest version and comparing my persistence partition files with the new fresh versions) while 3) maintenance should be simple. It's worked well enough so far, but ... I'm about to bring another server in-house, and I maybe want just a bit more than Knoppix, although I still won't have disk slots to spare. I need the simple stability of LEAP, which will of course get updates regularly anyway, and wonder about running on a thumb drive in the same way. This one will run MySQL/Maria, probably run a web server, and will handle email and need at least a basic forwarding MTA if not the real thing. I imagine that I'd want to run without swap (*gasp* yes, that discussion again ;-) and figure I'm stuck with content changes right in the live OS rather than in an overlay volume. Does that sound right, or is there a LEAP live image (no, I haven't gone looking yet) that can UNIONFS on top in the same way?

[opensuse] ext4lazyinit - must I wait?
by Daniel Bauer 03 Mar '20

03 Mar '20

I just inserted a new hard disk (6TB) in my Desktop-Computer and made a new encrypted partition using Yast. Now ext4lazyint runs and runs and runs... I read it is a background process that has to do with inodes. My questions are: - can I already use that disk (exactly to rsync 3TB of data to it) or must/should I wait until ext4lazyinit has terminated? - can I shut down the computer while this is still running? Or shouldn't I? Thanks.

[opensuse] Housekeeping functions
by Ianseeks 01 Mar '20

01 Mar '20

Hi For ordinary lazy users like me who are not interested in or capable of system admin as a daily chore, should there not be the possibility of a section in Yast2 or Systemsettings where some standard user friendly housekeeping functions (e.g. flushing tmp folders, vacuuming journals etc) could be activated/configured to run at startup/shutdown rather than have to scour the net for solutions. For many like me, the computer should be doing more work with stuff that could be automated. I've just hit the "system disk full" message when running "zypper", it would have been better if a "disk getting full" message was displayed at login so i could have dealt with it.

[opensuse] freezes on 15.1/KDE
by Daniel Bauer 29 Feb '20

29 Feb '20

Hi, since yesterday I have some freezes of approx. 20 seconds: the mouse pointer disappears or stays unmovable, the keyboard doesn't react. The rest of the computer seems to run normally (gkrellm shows movement, radio continues playing). This began yesterday. Today I updated the system and rebooted, same problem. As I don't know much about systems I typed "dmesg" and what fell into my eyes are the following messages: [ 1561.359808] perf: interrupt took too long (2502 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 79750 [ 2054.192856] perf: interrupt took too long (3446 > 3127), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 58000 [ 3561.599163] perf: interrupt took too long (4317 > 4307), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 46250 [ 7297.201895] perf: interrupt took too long (5417 > 5396), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 36750 Where can I search, and for what?

[opensuse] setup delay on network and browsers problem
by jdd＠dodin.org 29 Feb '20

29 Feb '20

I have no idea of the reason of the problem, but since some weeks, my Leap 15.1 computer (three of them, actually) get a long time to connect to the net. same with wifi or ethernet. Looks like a dhcp problem (all are setup as dhcp, but they IP never changes) like 20-30s after I can type on the keyboard. In the mean time, all my applications launch, Firefox, Chromium, Falkon, Thunderbird. then all send error messages "server not found". I have to stop them and relaunch them to get the web. this "problem" with Firefox is very old, but since recently I had rarely to launch it before connection. any idea? thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Leap 15.1 - Nvidia Graphics driver = grub2 does not boot anymore - help very appreciated
by stakanov 26 Feb '20

26 Feb '20

I have the problem of a machine with a broken Grub post Nivida driver update. This is nothing new that Nvidia is crap, but I find myself in the situation that I will have to coach over the phone how to repair the grub to a user with limited knowledge (no way to go down to Italy right now, for obvious reason) and honestly: never did the procedure and have no idea about it. The error message: after booting into the /sda1/gub-efi fat partition the system stalls with: Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions. So, what do I have to do and what do I need? Thank you. (The user currently should have only a installation DVD. So I suppose - without knowing it - that this shall be a case for live usb or for a rescue disc? Else?) _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

But I'm having trouble getting it to consistently occur. When it occurred in the same session I also saw popups concerning a kwin reset. So perhaps it is linked to compositor or window management issues. Or perhaps due to me switching to a text console to run htop. I now have a power monitor on the PC's wallplug so that when it happens I will return to see the power consumption at 125 W instead of the expected 65 W. Have you tried getting the locker to do less by setting a plain colour and or turning off the clock? When I set a plain colour I thought I'd fixed it, but it's more likely due to me logging out and logging in which would have reset kwin and the compositor. At the moment if I run the locker with no arguments its working fine with any settings I care to try: /usr/lib64/libexec/kscreenlocker_greet I wonder if there was some junk in a config file somewhere that all my playing has cleared. I noted you other message about it being a known fixed bug that may not actually be fixed. As the bug seems to be related to openGL, I might try the Display and Monitor - Compositor - Rendering backend options to see if that shakes things up a bit? That might cause more trouble I suppose. I'm totally grasping at straws here I'm afraid. I'm willing to try other experiments if it would help. Sorry to be the source of false hope.

[opensuse] intel opengl
by jdd＠dodin.org 24 Feb '20

24 Feb '20

Hello, I want to use a proprietary software (DaVinci Resolve). My ASUS N550JK is an optimus computer, but I never could make bumblebee work more than 10 mn long (during these minutes, resolve worked 5x faster than kdenlive, the reason why I would like to use it). Resolve works on a much less powerful computer with intel graphics and no optimus. On the ASUS, it ask for "an openCL interface". As far As I understand, Mesa openCL (and lib openCL) is installed. Is it possible to to hide completely the nvidia video part? Is there a chance intel driver can provide openCL? Note: I can't make bumblebee work right now, neither in openSUSE nor in ubuntu or the native resolve distro of choice centos, so using it is not a reasonable choice for the moment thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Obsolete entry in fstab stalls booting
by zb4ng 22 Feb '20

22 Feb '20

Please note, that the problem at hand is already solved, but the underlying issue gets in my way from time to time, so I wanted to tell (or rant 😉) about it. Two days ago, I wasn't able to boot my system (LEAP 15.1): X-Server didn't start and I could only log into maintenance mode with no network either. First, I suspected a botched update, but the kernel-firmware was updated a couple of days before and I had successfully booted in the mean time. So, I was dumbfounded, but then I remembered to look into /etc/fstab and found an entry of a USB drive that I had plugged in and removed. I deleted said entry and LEAP booted just fine. My point is: maybe the maintainers could help to avoid this situation: Please, don't break the boot process if some malfunctioning but unimportant entry in fstab doesn't work! Or at least, make it easier for the user to find out what is going wrong. I had similar issues multiple times over the past years and sometimes it took me quite a time to figure them out.

[opensuse] TW observations
by Per Jessen 21 Feb '20

21 Feb '20

I have not installed a new Tumbleweed in years. Today I was prep'ing a new machine for our datacenter console, and decided I might as well use Tumbleweed. In yast ncurses, I was surprised to see - a) to change to wicked I have to tab into the option, it is not available with keyboard shortcuts under Change->Network Config. b) that predictable interface names were used by default (easily changed, I know). c) at the end of installation, a pop-up window with no timer ? That one meant a bit more exercise for me - I saw the installation drawing to a close, so I left my office to walk to the datacentre and see the box boot-up. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.2°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What process/program handles file system use?
by Istvan Gabor 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

Hello: In the thread of my previous question on "usable free space on an ext4 file system" I wrote that I could not fill the available free space with one big file. In openSUSE 13.1 I can not copy one big file to fill the available free space. I found that in openSUSE Leap 15.1 I can copy the same file to fill the available space, using the very same partition. When I want to copy the file the system says there is no space left on the device. Some file is copied partially. In this case df reports that the available space is 0. If I umount the file system and mount it again, df reports that the available space is 55K. I find it srange. Maybe it is a silly question, but I would like to know what process or program handles file systems and their use (used space, available space). Is it the kernel or mount program or somethging else?

[opensuse] browser and passwords and RSA, oh my.
by Roger Oberholtzer 20 Feb '20

I have a very unusual situation. I am trying to log in to a web site (https://www.zf-laser.com if you are curious) from either Firefox (72.0.2) or Chrome (79.0.3945.130) on Tumbleweed. I enter the password, but it is not accepted. Both browsers change the password I have entered into a long string that starts with "rsa:". I am guessing this is what they send. And, when Firefox offers to keep the password, I see that it is this same altered string, not the one I entered. I can log in to other sites (e.g. OBS). But not this one. I have no idea what is happening. Especially since both browsers do the same thing. Any ideas? A Google search did not seem to me to show anything related to this.

[opensuse] Referring to the FWUPD 1.3.8 (mentioned on Phoronix)
by stakanov 15 Feb '20

15 Feb '20

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Fwupd-1.3.8-Released There they give the command: cat /sys/class/block/sd*/device/model to be run and report the result. I am puzzled about what the information would be (in case all goes well). For me, I have a Samsung 850 Pro (with obviously another firmware than the other Samsung SSD 850 EVO. Now one would expect to get a list of: firmware version, serial number etc. Instead the result with me is: cat /sys/class/block/sd*/device/model Samsung SSD 850 Oops, this does not even make clear which 850 SSD this is, EVO or PRO. Is this intended? If yes, I do not have twitter. Do you happen to know by chance how to report back? (the link is obviously in English, nothing exotic). _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] Does LUKS volume info survive upgrade
by Michael Fischer 15 Feb '20

15 Feb '20

To be more specific, I have a LUKS volume on /dev/sda3. I am about to reinstall LEAP 15.0 on /, which is on an entirely different disk. I will only redo /, and leave /home, etc. untouched. Question is: will the "passphrase", etc. continue to work after the reinstall of the OS on /, or which of the following steps, (copied from SDB[0]) cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sda3 cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 my_secure_partion Will need to be done? Or will I need to back the partition up and redo it from scratch? Thanks.

[opensuse] Memtest version
by James Knott 15 Feb '20

15 Feb '20

The version of memtest, included with 15.1, does not work with UEFI drives. I downloaded the proper version and installed it on a USB stick and it works fine. Will the version included with 15.2 work with UEFI? Given that the world is moving to it, I fail to see the point in keeping a version that doesn't work with newer computers. Perhaps both versions could be provided and selected as appropriate. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Is it possible to branch a pinter with ethernet in a way that I can reach it with my notebook via bluetooth? Is there a special printserver maybe?

[opensuse] Latest big upgrade garbled up TW
by oszko＠chem.u-szeged.hu 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

Dear all, In the last few days there was a big TW upgrade with more than 1300 items. I am glad, I could reboot. But... My laptop says it removed thunderbird. Well, then let's reinstall it. It says it is already installed and nothing to be done. Then let's remove it. It says there is no such software. I tried to change from CLI zypper (zypper -f did not work either) to Yast, I failed, because neither Yast nor Yast2 worked, missing some modules. I tried to save some documents, it insisted to put them in temp. I tried to run zypper dup several times, with minor success. these processes always began with trying to remove cyrus* packages that could not be done because they are not installed - said zypper. i use TW with KDE Please help, where should I begin to tidy up things?

[opensuse] Printing a PDF from Libreoffice and from Ocular
by Basil Chupin 10 Feb '20

10 Feb '20

What is the trick to be able to successfully print a PDF file from (a) Ocular and (b) from Libreoffice? The question really relates to the the selection of page numbers when printing a range of pages. For example, I opened a PDF file in ocular and selected a range of pages to print --eg, 53 to 85 but the printing started from page 42 (I watched as the pages were being printed so stopped the job before too many pages [and ink] were wasted. The same happened (but with a different PDF file) when the file was opened in Libreoffice. At the bottom of the displayed page it shows the correct page number as the start page for the pp range I want to print but the printing begins from a different page (similar to the experience with Ocular). I also notice that with Libreoffice the left hand column displays a 'slideshow' page number but using these page numbers produced even mare wasted paper. The question therefore is: is there a "trick" in selecting the correct starting/ending pages to be printed when a PDF file is opened in either Ocular or LibreOffice? All help most appreciated.

[opensuse] Problem with Btrfs - it thinks disk is full
by Vojtěch Zeisek 10 Feb '20

Hi, I installed twice new TW system (once after replacement of disk) using TW snapshot 20200205 image. Installation went fine, but on running system I repeatedly run into problems with 'df -h' showing no space available, but 'sudo btrfs fi show /' correctly showing plenty of space. The answer is in 'sudo btrfs fi df /' showing I'm (nearly) running out of space of Metadata: $ df -h Souborový systém Velikost Užito Volno Uži% Připojeno do devtmpfs 12G 0 12G 0% /dev tmpfs 12G 111M 12G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 12G 1,7M 12G 1% /run tmpfs 12G 0 12G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% / /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /.snapshots /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /boot/grub2/x86_64-efi /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /opt /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /boot/grub2/i386-pc /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /root /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /usr/local /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /tmp /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /var /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /home /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren 3,5T 759G 0 100% /srv /dev/sda1 300M 8,1M 292M 3% /boot/efi tmpfs 2,4G 0 2,4G 0% /run/user/65534 tmpfs 2,4G 16K 2,4G 1% /run/user/1000 $ sudo btrfs fi show / Label: 'korinek' uuid: df8db051-fb0b-4d70-b4cb-3126d757f544 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 758.09GiB devid 1 size 3.48TiB used 760.03GiB path /dev/mapper/pocitac-koren $ sudo btrfs fi df / [sudo] heslo pro root: Data, single: total=757.00GiB, used=755.49GiB System, single: total=32.00MiB, used=112.00KiB Metadata, single: total=3.00GiB, used=2.57GiB GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=0.00B The numbers keep changing, so it's not super up-to-date, but I hope the problem is obvious. Fix is possible by using 'sudo btrfs balance start /' - it usually enlarges limit for Metadata.

When it was only 10Gb, I could cope with it. of course I can simply use the web interface, but the kde integration is so good I would like to keep it. is it possible to setup the Nextcloud client so that it only keep a link to the server (like the android client does) and download only on demand? thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Boot failure after kernel update
by Josef Wolf 06 Feb '20

06 Feb '20

Hello, today, I did a "zypper update" (after a long time) This upgraded my kernel to vmlinuz-5.5.1-4.g267811a-default After that, I was no longer able to boot: - At the prompt to typing LUKS key, the USB (cherry) did not work. - using a PS2 keyboard, I could type the LUKS key, but the LUKS volume could not be accessed. Investigation showed, that mkinitrd failed to add a lot of modules to the initrd image. This is the message from mkinitrd: Some kernel modules could not be included This is not necessarily an error: dm_crypt dm_mod dm-cache dm-cache-mq dm-cache-cleaner sr_mod scsi_dh ata_piix hid_generic ehci-hcd ehci-pci ohci-hcd ohci-pci uhci-hcd xhci-hcd yenta_socket scsi_dh_rdac scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh_alua usbhid hid-apple hid-sunplus hid-cherry hid-logitech hid-logitech-dj hid-microsoft firewire-ohci pcmcia usb_storage hid-hyperv hv-vmbus sdhci_acpi virtio_blk virtio_scsi crypto_LUKS sg Update bootloader...

[opensuse] Virtualbox - heads up - no support for Linux 5.5 kernel (yet)
by David C. Rankin 04 Feb '20

04 Feb '20

All, Just a heads up if you rely on virtualbox guests. I've run into issue with updates surrounding the 5.5 kernel that prevent guest from starting even after a downgrade of the kernel itself back to the prior working version (there are other files updated to support the 5.5 kernel that come into play -- I have yet to solve this) Virtualbox is aware of the changes needed to the kernel, but I suspect there will be more involved. I'm not sure of the latest python changes, but on my to check list is that package.

[opensuse] IPv6 address used to be MAC now random - Leap 15.0
by James Knott 02 Feb '20

I've been running IPv6 on my notebook computer for years, using NetworkManager to configure the networking. The consistent IPv6 address had long been based on the MAC address, but now it's a random number. How did this happen and what do I do to go back to the MAC based address? As always, the temporary privacy addresses are random. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] trying to run installer.exe in wine

Hi, obviously something does not work when I try to run an installer in whine (it works in virtual box/win 10, so there is nothing wrong in the exe itself).

[opensuse] Hardware failure or software problem? Swap fills up, system unresponsive and dmesg is flooded
by stakanov 01 Feb '20

01 Feb '20

I did create a paste in https://paste.opensuse.org/22334414 I am not good enough to understand what the system actually complains. I do not think it is a memory problem, could be related to the OS instead. The swap fills although the memory remains free. If you sudo swapoff -a the swap turns into memory, the system turns responsive. sudo dmesg reveals a flood of entries (disregard the martians, these are due to a vpn.) I do not understand if, and if which, hardware is failing. Memory does nor reveal errors. Sometimes I get a complaint about CPU3 should not be sleeping. This is all I know. Thanks in advance if somebody understands (and maybe can a bit explain) the output. Why does the swap not return to memory once memory is abundantly available? _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] a stupid sudo question

If I am attributing the system "secure rights" in yast. If I am activating group wheel for sudo. If I am taking off sudo rights for everybody else who is not wheel. If I plug now in an usb device, is the user still asked the password for root to mount the device? Or is he now unable to root any usb device (given secure settings)? Is there a way to avoid hat (if you have three users working, only he last open one is presented with the password request for opening an usb device (this is actually very annoying because if you work in one user you do not want to switch to another, to cancel the request, to to have finally the pop up coming up in the right place..... _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] 15.1, plasma desktop doesnt load any more for certain user
by cagsm 29 Jan '20

29 Jan '20

Hi openSUSE list, I had a post with no replies on support suse list: <https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-support/2020-01/msg00123.html> meanwhile I have discovered that this test machine has come rather a longer way with upgrades from previous opensuse releases. Everything worked fine until a few weeks ago. With some zypper dup update, a normally working plasma desktop user was unable to log into plasma ever after. Some extra local linux user accounts, whom had never used the gui login before and thus not created any plasma related config files and never logged into plasma, tried yesterday, still work fine and happily log into plasma. plasma for these users looks rather new and the menu looks more stylish than I remember it from that other user that is currently blocked from logging into plasma. Maybe as that older user has used plasma for a long period of time. Anyhow, how would I make that one blocked user be able to login into plasma again? what config files can I look at, edit or whatever I need to do? I dont have actual real personalisation or specials for that user, only some xterm or konsole was running and always been restoring upon logon to that plasma desktop, thats basically all. IceWM and KWM or those simplistic desktops do work for that plasma affected user as well. Help?

[opensuse] CIFS on Tumbleweed
by Roger Oberholtzer 29 Jan '20

29 Jan '20

In the past week or so, an update to my Tumbleweed has resulted in me no longer being able to mount CIFS columns from a Windows server (a company server, not my own). I now get this in the system log: [ 2203.773170] FS-Cache: Netfs 'cifs' registered for caching [ 2203.783492] Key type cifs.spnego registered [ 2203.783495] Key type cifs.idmap registered [ 2203.784007] CIFS: Attempting to mount //serammmarst01-a.XXX.ramboll-group.global.network/data2 [ 2214.047746] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation. [ 2214.047774] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -2 No idea why. I do not think that the server has changed. And if it has, some IT guy in some cupboard is the only one who knows and he's not telling. So I am starting with the assumption that something has changed in Tumbleweed. I have tried with ver=1 and var=3. The command is: mount -t cifs //serammmarst01-a.XXX.ramboll-group.global.network/data6 /media/mma-sql-1/data6 -o soft,vers=3.0,credentials=/etc/cifs.creds.ramse,workgroup=RAMBOLL,rw,noauto,uid=roger This also fails when systemd automount tries to mount it. But if the mount command does not work. The /etc/cifs.creds.ramse file is correct and unchanged from when it worked. It makes no difference if I put the items in that file on the command line. The error is the same. I have tried ver= 1.0, 3, 3,0, 3,1,1 and default. No difference. I tried adding -vvv to the mount command to get more debugging. But that did not work.

[opensuse] Zypper up negative repository

Yes, I know, I've asked before, SUBJ="How to exclude sites from Zypper?" I'm fed up with single digit KiB/s rates where I can't even download a new kernel overnight! Patrick has described here how to add lines to a /etc/zypp/repo/<file>.repo to give specific repository sites to use. baseurl=<LIST OF REPOSITORY SITES> That's all well and good IF AND ONLY IF you have a positive site to list. I seem only to run ones that are slow. Oh, they ping close enough, but download slow. I can see them using netstat to find what I'm being connected to. So I can learn what NOT to connect to, what the slow servers are, regardless of geolocation. Past correspondence on this subject ended up with: >> The official procedure is to report that mirror to the admin at >> opensuse. > > It's certainly worth a try, we have had issues with the geolocation, but > we can't do much about lack of bandwidth or peering.

[opensuse] Using grub2 in a separate boot partition outside of the btrfs volume to boot the opensuse.
by Hongyi Zhao 27 Jan '20

27 Jan '20

Hi, I installed the latest opensuse leap 15.1 with the default btrfs filesystem. But I want to boot it from outside the btrfs volume with grub2 which is located on a separated boot partition. I tried many times, but still cannot figure it out. On the other hand, the refind boot manager can automatically detect the opensuse and boot it. Any hints / notes for my issue? Is it possible to boot opensuse on the btrfs with grub2 outside the btrfs?

[opensuse] Migrating software mdraid Raid1 data partition only to larger physical disks?
by cagsm 26 Jan '20

26 Jan '20

Hello fellow lists dwellers, trying to plan and make decisions about migrating a simple, currently two disk sata Raid1 with only a single data partition on it. Created during initial install time of some openSuSE early leap or even earlier times, some years ago in the past. I am not booting off that Raid1, mdraid that is, md127 or something got created by some opensuse installer back then. Methinks I even read about some bugzilla entries at opensuse about why it was called md127 instead of md0 and md1 and such low numbers. Never gotten fixed or settled or I never cared about its name. Also, no LVM here or that kind of stuff, never managed to wrap my head around it, dont know if its even state of the art or necessary for my basic needs. Need data redundancy for a simple data store for files. Found some nice article: <https://zedt.eu/tech/linux/migrating-existing-raid1-volumes-bigger-drives/> System is currently on Leap 15.1 level. Is it advised to use built-in means to go about such a task? Does yast partition and disk tools support adding these things and migrating data over to larger physical disks etc at a sufficient technical level so that everything works fine? I also read in various other articles about partition and data alignment woes, about partition identifiers and whatnot, and wonder if built-in stuff of Leap 15.1 suffices for my basic needs and expansion idea of my physical disks? Thanks for any further pointers and ideas or suggestions what to take into consideration?

[opensuse] How Much Swap for 512-GB of RAM?
by Lew Wolfgang 20 Jan '20

20 Jan '20

Hi Folks, Back in the old daze we used to allocate swap space three times as large as the installed RAM as a rule of thumb. But I've got two new servers with 512-GB of ECC RAM and now I'm wondering, How Much Swap? The motherboard has two-each 1-TB NVMe M.2 PCIe modules, it's tempting to use one for the operating system and the second for swap. Data will be stored on hardware RAID6 arrays and so aren't a part of this calculation. Any thoughts? 1-TB of swap on one M.2 for .5-TB of RAM?

[opensuse] Windows 10 apparently destroyed my bootloader
by Marc Chamberlin 19 Jan '20

19 Jan '20

I have a dual boot system for both OpenSuSE 15.1 and Windows 10 and it looks like some freaking Windows update has destroyed my bootloader (I believe it was EFI Grub 2 but I am not sure) Anywise now my system will only boot up Windows 10 and I no longer have the option to boot up OpenSuSE. What is the best way to restore the boot loader on my system so I can get the GRUB menu back to select what operating system I want to boot up? Thanks for any advise and help...

[opensuse] Any progress on susepaste reporting failed when it actually succeeds?
by David C. Rankin 17 Jan '20

This came up a month or so back, susepaste reports that it failed on the command line, but the paste actually succeeds. I believe it was a curl issue at the time and there was a recommendation on changing the script from http to https to make curl happy. Well, it still continues to report failure even though the paste succeeds, e.g. $ pst "ptr2array-3" ptr2array3.c c Dec 25 02:38:00 - "ptr2array-3" ptr2array3.c Paste failed :-( expires: Wed Jan 22 02:38:02 CST 2020 Paste happily made it: https://paste.opensuse.org/70684135 but I still get the "Paste failed :-(" message. http/https makes no difference.

[opensuse] urgent desaster recover - need to revive a system or reinstall, still have access to etc and config files
by cagsm 16 Jan '20

16 Jan '20

Hi fellow lists participants, I have a hardware breakdown of an old HDD, and I need to revive a system/functionality really quick. I am a noob unfortunately when it comes to backuping/restore suse in simple ways especially with keeping config, users etc. I can still read kind of okay the old /etc/ and basically the root partition. I have already a new SSD at hand so I could quickly setup a clean leap 15.1 but how to make use of old config files instead of configuring all over again. especially keeping network interfaces information, some dhcp server config, some usernames. Cloning/rescuing the whole old HDD currently is estimated via clonezilla for another 3hours or more, so thats why I am wondering if i could just make use of the /etc/ folder and maybe others you guys hint that I would need. Can leap 15.1 installer make use of /etc/ and other dirs when they would be present even if the system would be incomplete Thanks for urgent help. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] A Problem of Permission, Groups and Backintime
by stakanov 15 Jan '20

15 Jan '20

Good day to everyone. I have a comprehension problem of permissions, groups and "back in time". Following situation: user A permissions 700 user B permissions 700 both users belong to group "users" now: A (and only A!) should be able to backup the data of A and B. This to avoid confusion of the user and make sure he/she it does not log out the user before the process of backup has finished. The account A is also an account were no "surfing" or "games" and so on are taking place, thus it is somewhat more valuable than B. Backintime should be configured to run residential. It should recognize when the external disk for backup is attached by the user and should do then a backup (if criteria are met in terms of time and changes). B should not be able to do this. Thus when (while user in B) a hdd is attached, the resident process should not start the backup. (This is the desired setup). Both user should stay however in the situation of 700 to each other (as I cannot exclude that in future there will be a third account that shall not have access rights to neither A nor B. One though I have was that I could define a group e.g. backintime so to be able to use backintime you would be necessarily a member of it. But that does not resolve me the problem of different access rights for A and B for what is the functionality of backintime. I do not think that I could make that new user without being part of "users" because I suppose a lot of scripts are taking for granted that you are part of users. Am I mistaken here? And how would I have to define access rights? If I give backintime root access, this would be unnecessarily wide as it should not run as root, it only hat to do a backup of the two home directories. So in short: how to define two users A and B in order to give A access to the files to B in order to backup them, not give that rights to B, not to work as root. And maintain (if possible - at least for B) the mutual no access thing). So if necessary A can be able to read B. B shall not be able to read A. Any new user created should have access neither to A nor B. Was that clear of did I loose you completely here? _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

This may be OT, but I don't know where to direct it otherwise: I had, up until a few days ago, an icon that led me to Langenscheidts dictionary that allowed a word in either language to be translated into the other.

[opensuse] Problem with a Canon Selphy 740

This is an older photo printing machine. It is now supported by gutenprint drivers and is also offered in yast. The problem I face: I have activated cups and cups browsed (as it is an older printer). When I list it in lsusb I can see the selphy correctly seen as usb device. However, when opening yast, the printer is not seen, so I cannot install any driver. I shortly thought about an apparmor problem but deactivating tentatively apparmor does not change a thing. I am stuck because in substance: I do not understand why a device that is listed in lsub is not seen in yast. Maybe it is not correctly seen as print device? How could I determinate this?

[opensuse] systemd and dhcp clients
by Roger Oberholtzer 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

I have a number of Ethernet devices that obtain their configuration via DHCP. I would like to start a system service when a device has obtained an address. For example, I have some GigEVision cameras that can synchronize time using PTP (a variation on NTP). We use the openSUSE packages for this. There are two systemd services that should start when a device comes on line. In another situation, I have a LiDAR scanner that gets an address via DHCP. I want to start a daemon that manages remote access to the LiDAR scanners. In both cases the service that should run is on the server after the remote has gotten an address. The services are not running on the client that obtained the address. I do not know if there is a way, in the context of a systemd service starting, to sense that a device has gotten a DHCP address. Of course I do not have to use systemd. But we are trying to do things on openSUSE the openSUSE way.

Automatic method on both IPv4 and IPv6 gives this situation, as does Shared to other computers on IPv4. On IPv6, I have also tried Automatic (Only addresses). Is there any mode that passes IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, from the LAN to the client device? I don't even see any changes on the command line, which shows a 10.a.b.c address on IPv4 and link local on IPv6. Is there any info anywhere on how this is supposed to work? It would be nice if there was a bridge mode that would pass both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to the device. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi Folks, My 13-year old HP desktop is still working fine, but it's obviously time to retire it before it permanently dies. Also, my wife recently found a bit of luck at the casino and this is the perfect time to upgrade. So I have a couple of questions about hardware compatibility with openSUSE. It looks like the AMD Ryzen cpu's have a bit of an edge over Intel, but has anyone seen compatibility issues? And what about high-res monitors? I'm looking at a UHD (3840 x 2160) monitor, any issues with Leap 15.1? And how about those really wide/curved monitors?

Hi, looks, like https://ftp.gwdg.de having some issues in syncing with https:// download.opensuse.org, but I'm still referred to ftp.gwdg.de for some reason. Compare https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/frispete:/blender/ openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/ with https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/home:/frispete:/blender/ openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/ Isn't this a flaw of mirrorbrain, that should cope with such situations properly? Is there anything, that could be done on my side to avoid ftp.gwdg.de for now?

[opensuse] Azp-2-It problem
by Doug McGarrett 06 Jan '20

06 Jan '20

I use Zap-2-It to find TV programming in my area (11778) on Cablevision of Hauppauge. Up to now, when I installed the app, I put in my zip code and my cable supplier, it always came up with a channel list in numerical order, and so on for my cable provider. Now when I start the app, it comes up with ABC, CBS, NBC, no channel numbers, etc. I can reset it by selecting "Change provider or time zone" and then inserting my zip code, and then selecting my cable provider from a list of four. It does not keep this setting--every time I start it, I have to go back to the setup routine. Does anybody know how to get back to the old permanent settings and keeping them?

[opensuse] Recommend laptop keyboard
by ken 05 Jan '20

05 Jan '20

The first laptop I ever owned had a fantastic keyboard, made typing a pleasure. Since then the quality of keyboards has gone ever downward... to the point where I don't think people even know what a good keyboard is. Reviews I've read on laptops over at least the past ten years don't even mention the keyboard. The laptop I have now is only a couple years old, but I'm looking to replace it because the keyboard is so horrible. Anyone know of a laptop with what they consider to be an excellent keyboard? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] despite override, mythbackend still requires mysql
by Per Jessen 03 Jan '20

I have two new mythtv backend systems.

I added this override: # /etc/systemd/system/mythbackend.service.d/extra.conf [Unit] After= After=network.target Requires= I've done a 'daemon-reload', yet when I stop mysql, mythbackend is still stopped and when I start mythbackend, I also still get mysql started.

[opensuse] DNS/Bind9 - success resolving 'XXX' after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets
by David C. Rankin 03 Jan '20

03 Jan '20

All, This is more a general question about a rash of DNS resolution issues that seem to be on the increase on my ipv4 network lately. They basically have to do with Bind 9 trying to resolve names with EDNS (and I guess the default UDP package size of 4K) I don't handle ipv6 at all. In my named.conf I have: listen-on-v6 { none; }; But regardless, I end up with a slew of messages, e.g. error (network unreachable) resolving 'gateway.discord.gg/A/IN': 2001:630:0:9::14#53 success resolving 'gateway.discord.gg/A' (in 'discord.gg'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets I don't understand why I'm seeing the attempts to resolve the ipv6 address to begin with? However, the same issue seems to effect normal ipv4 addresses, even opensuse.org, e.g. Dec 30 22:03:48 nirvana named[15060]: success resolving 'www.opensuse.org/A' (in 'opensuse.org'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets Dec 30 22:03:54 nirvana named[15060]: success resolving 'nshou1.novell.com/A' (in 'novell.com'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets Dec 30 22:03:54 nirvana named[15060]: success resolving 'nshou1.novell.com/AAAA' (in 'novell.com'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets Dec 30 22:03:54 nirvana named[15060]: success resolving 'opensuse.org/A' (in 'opensuse.org'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets Dec 30 22:03:54 nirvana named[15060]: success resolving 'opensuse.org/AAAA' (in 'opensuse.org'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets From Bind9ARM, I have set the EDNS UDP packet size to 512, but I'm still having the problems. I have included: edns-udp-size 512; and I still do not eliminate the "success ... after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets" messages that are logged. The EDNS resolution is working, but only for 512 octets (the related posts seem to indicate this is a problem largely to do with misconfigured load-balancing and failover configurations of the target machines. I don't recall seeing much of this before a month or two ago -- so I don't know if it is at all related to the DNS over http growing pains or what... Has anyone else run into this problem -- or have a solution? The time it takes for Bind to try from UDP size of 4096 (default) to 512 on some sites with 50 linked domains can be quite noticeable. -- David C.

[opensuse] A 16TB hard disk drive is on sale for far less than you'd think
by Anton Aylward 01 Jan '20

01 Jan '20

A 16TB hard disk drive is on sale for far less than you'd think 16TB HDD for just over $400 <https://www.techradar.com/news/a-16tb-hard-disk-drive-is-on-sale-for-far-le…> Storage giant Seagate unveiled two new hard disk drives with a 16TB capacity earlier this year and for once, it was not all about data centers. The Exos X16 and the IronWolf/IronWolf Pro targeted two different audiences (data center for the first and NAS users for the second) and feature SATA or SAS interface only for the first one and SATA only for the second model. Provantage is selling the _Exos_ <https://www.provantage.com/seagate-st16000nm001g~7SEGE1K1.htm> (ST16000NM001G) for just over $400 while the _IronWolf_ <https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-IronWolf-16TB-256Mb-7200Rpm/dp/B07SNW9W48/re…> one (ST16000VN001) retails for just under $500 from Amazon. Both have nine platters, use Helium technology and have a five year warranty (the IronWolf has three); they also share the s same spinning speed (7200RPM), idle power (5W), average latency (4.16ms) and cache (256MB). The Exos range carries a MTBF (mean time before failures) at 2.5M hours and boasts a higher sustained transfer rate at 261MBps; the IronWolf Pro and the IronWolf reach 250 and 210MBps respectively. Note that the IronWolf Pro also comes with bundled Rescue Services, great for data recovery. * These are the best cloud storage <https://www.techradar.com/news/the-best-cloud-storage> of 2020, great to save your files online. * We also compiled the list of best cloud backup services <https://www.techradar.com/best/best-cloud-backup> * It is advisable that you keep a local copy of your files, so check out our best NAS <https://www.techradar.com/news/the-10-best-nas-devices-reviewed> Toshiba announced the 16TB _MG08_ <https://www.techradar.com/news/toshiba-unveils-new-16tb-enterprise-capacity…> series in January 2019 but we have yet to see any stock in the channel. Western Digital also shipped its first 16TB hard disk drives as well but based on MAMR rather than HAMR technology - as used by Seagate. While SSD prices have been falling, they are still far more expensive than their hard disk drive counterparts. At about $2800, Micron’s 9300 Pro <https://www.connection.com/product/micron-15.36tb-9300-pro-pcie-gen3-x4-nvm…> is nearly *SEVEN* times more expensive although this gap has all but disappeared for sub-1TB capacities. * _Cloud storage vs external hard disk drive: which one is better?_ <https://www.techradar.com/news/cloud-storage-vs-external-hard-disk-drive-wh…> *Source: https://www.techradar.com/news/a-16tb-hard-disk-drive-is-on-sale-for-far-le… ================================================================================ <AJA> I see mention that the gap between HDD and SSD prices has "all but disappered for sub-1TB capacities" which is interesting. The basic Linux OS as a healthy instlation can fit on under 500MB never mind 500GB, probably less. Let's not forget that memory is cheap and you probably can manage without swap unless you are doing something intense like photediting.

No, wait! My current generation Dell box is heavily RF shlded. It's far removed from some of the 'white box from Tiawan' PCs chassis I have in my basement in this regard. Not that my neighbours ever complained about my PC (or, in times past, my radio HAM equipment) interfering with their TV (whihc was probably cable anyway). So I wonder how well sheilded our compters are? How easy it is to do?

Hello: I installed mozilla seamonkey 2.49.5 (64-bit) on openSUSE Leap 42.2. When I try to access https://www.google.com site, it takes ~90 seconds for the browser to load the site. This consequently occurs every time after a browser restart. It occurs to a fresh seamonkey profile too, and it occours only to seamonkey. Firefox loads the site immediately. I tried to search for it but couldn't find anything. Any idea on what causes the error and how to solve it is welcome!

[opensuse] generally accepted that rpm version numbers are not guaranteed to collate properly?
by L A Walsh 30 Dec '19

30 Dec '19

Had 2 versions of a package where a script I had tried to delete the older package when the newer one was downloaded to replace it. But in this case, comparing Printrun-2.0.0~rc5.1522069560.e0ee40a-2.5.x86_64.rpm against Printrun-20170720~pre.1494969671.f54b6f9-1.1.x86_64.rpm The 2.0 version is the latest, but the rpm-ver compare seems to look at numeric v. non-numeric fields and ends up comparing '2' to 20170720 -- and comes up with 2 < 20170720, so '2' is older. Seems like there really is no way to compare rpm versions that are like this, with the only result being that the distro-downloader needs delete older version when it installs a new version, which can be a pain if there was some change between the two that you might want to compare or back out. Admittedly, as a % of packages downloaded, it is a VERY small number where that happens, often 0. But it seems like more often, some new version of something breaks something that used to work, so it seems prudent to keep those things around. Probably little can be done about this, just a matter of adapting to a bogus environment.

[opensuse] How can I share photos in intenrnet, with control?
by Carlos E. R. 29 Dec '19

29 Dec '19

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'd like to share some photos and videos with few persons, but only with those persons. I'm using Google Photos. With that, I can share with a person; but what google does is send him the link, but once the link is known everybody in Internet can see the photos. Yes, it is a long and obscure link, but still... I do not feel "safe". A spider might find it, right? So looking at alternatives. Some other service out there? (gratis preferably) Maybe Google drive, perhaps? I might host them myself. I have a minimal Linux server accessible from Internet. Now, what software, just Apache? Maybe too much work, maybe there is already something out there for the job. Apache has a complication: I have to differentiate the internal LAN web from Internet web. And I think it has to be based on the port. Why do I say that? Look, how ssh from internet is seen on that machine: <4.6> 2019-12-28T12:39:27.676655+01:00 Isengard sshd 7941 - - Accepted publickey for cer from 192.168.1.1 port ... ssh2: RSA SHA256:...

[opensuse] can't open remote X display
by Dave Howorth 29 Dec '19

29 Dec '19

I have a Raspberry Pi with a display and I'd like to run a program on my openSUSE PC but display the results on the pi's display. At the moment I'm running everything from the keyboard on my openSUSE box (i.e. the pi is just a display, no input). So I have opened an ssh session to the pi and disabled access control: $ ssh -X pi@RpiBplus pi@rpibplus's password: Linux RpiBplus 4.19.57-v7+ #1244 SMP Thu Jul 4 18:45:25 BST 2019 armv7l [etc] pi@RpiBplus:~ $ DISPLAY=:0 xhost + access control disabled, clients can connect from any host pi@RpiBplus:~ $ but if I then use another session on the openSUSE box to try to use the remote display, it fails: $ DISPLAY=192.168.1.22:0.0 xeyes Error: Can't open display: 192.168.1.22:0.0 and just to confirm the address: pi@RpiBplus:~ $ ip address list ... inet 192.168.1.22/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global noprefixroute eth0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever ... Does anybody have any idea what might be preventing this connection?

[opensuse] SLES / T umbleweed
by suse＠a-domani.nl 27 Dec '19

27 Dec '19

Hi all, I'm thinking about making (for one of my projects), the step towards "Tumbleweed". Main reason is, that each time after the official release, we need too much time to make our systems up-and-running again. The hope is, that with a rolling-release, the steps from week-to-the-next-week, will be significant smaller. However, I'm dependent upon packages** only made for SLES / RHEL / Ubuntu. Is it worth trying, or can you tell me that it will be a waste of time. **those packages are: openvpn-NL, Smartcard drivers by AET, and Citrix-client.

[opensuse] mirrors not carrying current versions
by L A Walsh 24 Dec '19

24 Dec '19

filed a bug under bugzilla #1159688 <https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1159688>, under networking, because I didn't see a section for mirrors. But I have a feeling that networking isn't the right place either. I'm assuming the right way to report a bug in the mirror system is to file a bug, but should there be a section called mirrors, or is networking the right section because the network mirrors are messed up? How can I download from 'download.opensuse.org' and not get shunted off to some random mirror that may or may not be up to day. One would certainly think a mirror could have downloaded a release from the 16th (this being the 20th).... Sadly, I don't see how this wouldn't affect the non-rolling release as well, but probably not as often as it doesn't update as often. Though it seems updates might be released as often as tumbleweed releases(?), so maybe it does affect it as often? Dunno. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Tbird different reader pane font -- driving me nuts -- SOLVED
by David C. Rankin 21 Dec '19

21 Dec '19

All, This little nit has been driving me nuts since the dup to 15.0. In Thunderbird, for some strange reason, some list messages would rendering in a good and readable font, others would render a couple of points smaller (now a problem the older I get) I always read/write in fixed-width fonts. It turns out it is an encoding problem unicode versus western, etc.. Picking through the config editor, there are two keys that control the rendering: font.size.fixed.x-unicode font.size.fixed.x-western Setting them both to the same value (11 here) did the trick. Thought I would pass it along. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] How to set paper size in both Libre Office page format and printer?
by Carlos E. R. 19 Dec '19

19 Dec '19

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have envelopes of 174 mm horizontal by 120 mm high. It is approxximately size DIN B6 (175*125) I want to set the exact same size in both page format and printer settings. If they are not the same, it does not print right (it prints out of the paper this moment). So, in page format I can set the exact size, no problem: width 17.4 cm height: 12.0 landscaope tray 1 (manual) Now, go to File printer setup. Options: change paper tray from printer settings to [ ] Properties: Tray 1 (manual) landscape Size: There is no B6, and no manual settings. On File/Print menu, Options, I unset: [ ] Use only paper size from printer preferences. Still, it says it is going to use #8 Monarch, 191mm wide by 98 mm heigh. The text overflows a bit to the left, out of the envelope (I'm testing with paper cut to size with scissors instead). Still, the printer dialog doesn't show the page size I wrote in Page/Format, nor the one in printer/properties. How can I create a manual page size for the printer dialog? Not in CUPS: http://localhost:631/printers/ I think that both page format and printer dialog have to match sizes for printing to work right.

[opensuse] mythtv - Lost connection to MySQL server during query
by Per Jessen 19 Dec '19

19 Dec '19

Not exactly on-topic, but someone might have an idea - I am migrating my mythtv setup to the latest version. This involves an upgrade of database schema too. It is done with the mythtv setup program. It detects the schema version and does updates as required. Unfortunately, mine keeps failing with $SUBJ. Right now, I'm on the fourth attempt. I have asked on the mythtv list, but it's not very responsive. The query is UPDATE recordedseek SET starttime = CONVERT_TZ(starttime, 'SYSTEM', 'Etc/UTC') ORDER BY starttime Table 'recordedseek' has some 54mill rows, so it will take a while. I'm wondering if there is a timeout setting I can tweak, on the client side? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.2°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] The fetchmail trap

Not receiving mail any more since Thursday, 12 December, I found out that the mail is still fetched from the provider's server and destroyed there, but no more put on /var/spool/mail/<user>. No idea where it finally arrives, probably on /dev/null. I do not know which patch I have installed on last Thursday, but I'm convinces it is a patch, because I observe the error on all three of my computers, which I updated all at the same time, unfortunately. For getting mail again, I do no rely on the fetchmail daemon any more, which has become a trap, but I use the direct POP3 mail server access of Firefox. It's a pity.

(I've reported on SourceForge) I'm curious if anyone is building and has fixed the open issue with the latest patch. If not, I'll probably just manually add the difference between patch 2 and patch 3 and find the issue that way.

AM runs roughly 500 KHz to 1.5 MHz. As for your neighbour, unless they're operating on the 160 M band, their transmissions will be at a higher frequency than AM. This means the problem is either the AM radio is unable to tolerate the strong signal, which indicates a flaw in the radio, or there is external mixing going on. If there was a fault with the transmitter, it would generate harmonics, which are even further from the AM band. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Auto engines produce nowhere near the interference they used to. One of the first steps to reduce it was the resistor spark plugs, which have an internal resistor. Also, the frequencies generated by cars, motors, etc. are fairly low, so by the time you reach the VHF spectrum, they're gone. This is not the case with data over power lines. As I mentioned, they symbol rate for 100 Mb & Gb is 125 M symbols (baud) per second.

[opensuse] Software Defined Radio

I need to find the source of some radio interference. So I've ordered an RTL-SDR kit and now I need to find some suitable software. I don't know much about radio - I could just about explain the difference between AM and FM :( So if anybody can suggest places to look for info or specific packages that are good for locating interference and also easy to use for a noob, I'd be very grateful.

[opensuse] Determine which Firefox tab from PID
by ken 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

I have a couple Firefox windows open and with multiple tabs open in each window. One of the webpages in one of those tabs is misbehaving, running the CPU up to 100% (and heating up this laptop). I have determined which Firefox PID that is causing the problem, but how do I find out which Firefox tab corresponds to that PID? Running "ps -Fp [pidnum]" gives a lot of info, but not which window and tab, or the bad webpage's URL, or anything else helpful. (Note: Yes, "kill [pidnum]" works, but I'd like to know the URL that is misbehaving.)

[opensuse] a puzzle for the last week up to Christmas
by Per Jessen 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

For the last couple of days I have I been trying to install leap15.1 on a small Zotac Nano, a fanless mini PC. It is destined to become my new livingroom mythtv client. Until this morning, I was stopped at trying to make it boot after installation. It reads in the kernel and the initrd (afaict, judging by the time it takes) then it fails to mount the root device (/dev/sda2) and halts immediately. "unknown block device 0,0" (or some such). I have assumed it somehow does not load the right modules to access the SATA drive, and I been rebuilding the initrd with all kinds of variations. (force load modules etc). The Zotac does not have a serial port, so capturing all of the output isn't possible. I have tried with a USB-to-serial converter, but couldn't get it to work. afaict, netconsole also only loads later? Hmm, may have to try that one again. This morning, I decided I would copy the kernel and initrd to my tftp server and boot them with pxe. I had no expectations that this would produce any better result, just pure desperation. It worked!!! So here is the puzzle - why would a kernel+initrd boot from PXE but not from disk? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.8°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Sure, I'll be happy to share. There's no black magic or trade secrets, my setup goes back to 2006 :-) No apache involved btw. Only tftpd and dhcp. You can run the tftp daemon from xinetd or just permanently. I run it permanently, but it doesn't matter. I use /srv/tftpboot as my main directory.

[opensuse] Python 2 EOL
by Roger Oberholtzer 14 Dec '19

14 Dec '19

In a short while, Python 2 will officially no longer be supported. As one would expect, distributions will no longer be making software packages based on Python 2. What is the plan for openSUSE Leap? When QT4 was no longer supported, packages were removed as part of keeping the system up-to-date. Unless one locked the various packages, they were gone. Will the same happen with Python2 packages? Should any users who rely on Python 2 lock all the needed packages? Or will they be left alone for a while? My biggest concern is the Trac package. We rely on this very much. I do not want to risk that the packages needed to keep it running get removed. I will be happy when Trac is finally running on Python 3. But it seems it (and many 3rd party plugins) are simply not there yet. Is there perhaps an rpm command that one can run to get a list of all packages that require python2? One cannot assume that the package name will always indicate this. I would prefer to errr on the side of locking a package that I might not need than risk loosing functionality. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] running a tcsh script on a bash system
by Jones De Andrade 12 Dec '19

12 Dec '19

Dear all. I'm having an issue with something I though would (or should) be a really dumb problem. I have a long tcsh script (which I won't adapt to bash) to run on a bash system (which will not be modified into a tcsh system due to other scripts needs). It would also be nice that the script runs with a syntax as simple as "./script_name.x". So, I've thought about doing something as simple as writing: #!/bin/tcsh at the beggining of the script. However, since it failed, I tested and discovered that: #!/bin/tcsh echo $SHELL Would still tell me I'm in bash. What am I missing here? Wasn't it supposed to work?

[opensuse] Microsoft Teams for Linux - it's a thing

It is the first part of Office365 for Linux. Teams will replace Skype for Business, which will be defunct in about a year. As my company has swallowed the MS line, hook and sinker, this is interesting to me. Unfortunately... It actually seems to work. As much as I have tried it. https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/ms-teams/ There is a complaint about the repository signing. But I plodded past that. I am guessing that one should encourage this activity. You know, in the real world. I was looking around in https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/ and there seems to be a bit of openSUSE/SUSE activity.

[opensuse] SymLink bug in tcsh
by Wolfgang Mueller 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

I use tcsh under Leap 15.1. When I type "ln -s" followed by some characters and hit the tab key for getting a completion, the tcsh answers "<link_name>" instead of completing the file name. Without the parameter "-s", i.e. for a hard link, the completion works correctly. When a new patch comes, I always hope there is a correction of this boring bug, but in vain. Since the tcsh users are a neglectable minority compared to the large bash user community, I am perhaps the only one that observes it.

[opensuse] Trouble with samba, may be related to Windows 10 ?
by Per Jessen 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

At home, I run samba for sharing e.g. photos and printers with my wife who works mostly on Windows or Mac. Also for my son on Windows, for printers. This has worked very well for years, but has recently (in the last year or so) begun to wobble. My son can't access the printer, can't even see it. The printer is run via cups on a central print server, then shared out via samba. I run a samba locally on my workstation, for sharing photos. My wife can't see it anymore. Machines involved - File&print server - samba 3.6.12 - seen by my wife's Win10, not seen by Mac. (need to double check that). Not seen by my son's Win10. My workstation - samba 3.0.26a. Shares not seen anywhere, anymore. New fileserver - samba 4.9.5+git.176.375e1f05788. Not seen anywhere. Clients - Windows10, macOS, a couple of Linux laptops (no problem with them). Last night I started doing some research, but didn't make it very far. Some issue about which smb protocol version to use? Does that mean anything to anyone? "min protocol", "max protocol" ? I feel very reluctant to start debugging this, it'll only take hours and hours, and leave me with less hair than ever. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (2.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SSD disks
by Dave Howorth 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

I've just bought my first SSD disks (Crucial MX500). I plan to install one on my desktop, replacing the DVD player which I'll move to USB, and use one with an RPi I have. With the one on my desktop I plan to install 15.1, probably as a fresh install, and then make some links to connect it to my existing data on the rotating rust. That way I'll still hopefully be able to boot the existing 15.0 off the rust if necessary. Does that sound like a reasonable plan? I'm currently stuck at the first step (well actually the second, I've managed to put one of the SSD into a USB enclosure and connect to it) - namely how should I format it? My 15.0 system has BtrFS with lots of subvolumes, which is another reason to do a new install. Are there any reasons to prefer particular filesystems on SSDs, like with SD cards, or do I just treat it the same as HDD? What do people use? A final question. Crucial have a Windows-only program for updating the firmware on the drive. Anybody know the Linux way?

[opensuse] Missing device for /boot/efi ???

I created a %0 GB btrfs partition on one of my new SSDs, in preparation for a test install of 15.1. I used YaST and it said: "Warning "The system might not be able to boot: "Missing device for /boot/efi with size equal or bigger than 256 MiB and filesystem vfat Do you want to continue?" It's just said it again as I'm preparing to reformat a Windows data partition the machine came with so I can make use of the space. What is this all about? The machine has /dev/sda1 vfat 96M 56M 41M 58% /boot/efi and has previously booted well. Why should creating a partition on a new disk or indeed reformatting a previously unused partition on an existing disk cause trouble for booting? A quick search turned up something on the factory list during 15.0 beta, but I didn't read because presumably whatever the issue was it was fixed? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SD cards quality - short follow-up
by Per Jessen 05 Dec '19

05 Dec '19

This isn't really very on-topic, but I though should add this quick follow-up. I'm not sure there was actually anything wrong with the Kingston card (16Gb, maybe 2 years old) I almost threw away. I put it aside and started working with a new Sandisk card, also 16Gb. After a little while, copying stuff to and fro, booting the nanopi, changing something etc - sudenyl it also developed some I/O problem. Odd messages in the kernel buffer, and unable to mount, then unable to even fsck. Partition table cannot be read .... This all happened with my Lenovo laptop. I began to have this gnawing doubt, and thought I would try an older Toshiba laptop. Hmm, same problem - then it occurred to me I had been in the very same situation maybe a year back. Solution - put the SD card in my Nikon camera (immediately complains the card needs formatting), format it - et voila!, no problem any more. Did the samne with the Kingston card, also works now. The difference between the two laptops - in the Lenovo the SD card is available as /dev/mmcblk0, in the Toshiba as /dev/sdb. (via USB). The difference in behaviour between the two interfaces is bad enough, but what is really weird is that it takes a 3rd device to "reset" the card. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.3°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] I should know this ... how to resume boot after emergency shell?
by Per Jessen 03 Dec '19

03 Dec '19

I have Leap 15.0 running on an ARM board and something got screwed up a couple of days ago. Boot-up fails : [FAILED] Failed to start udev Coldplug all Devices. I am not sure it is related, but after this, four other services or devices fail: [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-ttyS0.device. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Serial Getty on ttyS0. [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-mmcblk0p1.device. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for File System Check on /dev/mmcblk0p1. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for /boot/efi. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Early Kernel Boot Messages. [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by\x2dlabel-SWAP.device. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for /dev/disk/by-label/SWAP. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Swap. and I am given the emergency shell over the serial interface. It seems odd that "dev-ttyS0.device" times out - as I am using it :-) Even after mounting /boot/efi and adding swap, and I hit Control-D or type "systemctl default", the system will just hang. Is there a better/correct way? While in the emergency shell, I have even re-built the initrd, sort of just in case, but that only made things worse. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.2°C) member, openSUSE Heroes. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Good morning, all! ...and then tomas.kuchta.lists(a)gmail.com said... % ... % The install summary page is where you can enable disable % firewall/openSsh/changeSW/runlevel/etc. The next install step is the actual % install, I think. I played with a few installations before finally committing. I of course had to go and add various patterns and packages (yes, including those deprecated tools :-) to get the system I want, but that part all went well. I also got sshd up and happy even though I don't really know my firewall yet. I *thought* I had DHCP beaten by, before actually installing, going into Network and setting the host name and IP address. The first time I did that she stopped hard, so the next time I also included routing & nameserver info, and she continued, so I figured I was in good shape; yay. But ... she grabbed an address from the DHCP server instead of using the one I specified! Arrrrgh. Now that I'm installed and don't particularly want to start over, what's the best way to switch to a static IP address (since I don't have a DHCP server I can configure to hand out specifics that way)? And, for future reference, what should one do at the summary stage to actually ensure a static IP?

[opensuse] kde, removed desktop symbols (picture) cached
by Simon Becherer 01 Dec '19

01 Dec '19

Hi, i am wondering about how / where kde will cache desktop symbols, because it will show them even if the original source picture is removed: i have a "virtual-machine-management1" desktop entry. with "Icon=yast-vm-management" it shows a monitor and some tools it seems, that this picture was in some update (i use tumbleweed) removed. because if i open properties it will show a other symbol (a white animal at green background). i have more than one computers installed similar, an at one of them also on desktop there is now (i have no idea why) shown the symbol which i see when i open with right mouse click "properties" (animal) in properties, there should normally shown the same symbol i see at the desktop. but at all except one computer i see the old symbol at desktop and the animal symbol at properties. see here: https://paste.opensuse.org/83344057 so my questions are: 1) why is the old symbol still shown even if it seems to be removed (i could not find it actually on my computer by searching for "*yast-vm-management*" in /usr and in /home 2) where is it stored ? 3) how (what symbol) did kde assign a other symbol if the original is removed with other words, when in the desktop entry file is a "non existing" name of a symbol. simoN -- www.becherer.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] adobe reader 9.5 in Leap 15.1
by Istvan Gabor 29 Nov '19

29 Nov '19

Hello: I still need occasionally adobe reader. I installed it according to the description at this github site: cho2/Adobe Reader https://gist.github.com/cho2/79964a49a4f5f545853d3ebdfd1efe73 I followed the instructions of msohni (commented Jun 2, 2019) with slight modifications (different old library dir name). Now adobe reader / acroread runs without any error or even warning messages. Unfortunately the program print window doesn't see any configured printer, only "custom" is available. I copied libcups.so.2 (32 bit) from Leap 42.3 as the github site suggests but still no printers shown. There must be something else, maybe something trivial I missed. Any idea would be appreciated on how to solve it. Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] xfs planed to be used for root soon?
by L A Walsh 28 Nov '19

28 Nov '19

I was wondering if opensuse was planning to use xfs for its root again, soon? xfs formally has reflink copying and can automatically perform some types of deduplication. It's 1 better than using a hard link since only the data is currently dedupped and 2 copies of the same file can be owned by different people, even though the data is linked. They also have COW, so if you change bytes in the middle, only those bytes need to be written, like 2-1GB files were equal, copied 4k of 1's into the middle of one of the original two files. The space on disk went up by 4k for the new file and its sectors were deduped from the other file. No one would claim perfection, but given the frequent problems with BRTFS, it might yield lower problems. Forgive me if this has already been discussed, but it seemed cool! 'cp' even has support for doing reflnk copies or not. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] ssh without password
by Wolfgang Mueller 27 Nov '19

27 Nov '19

In "man ssh" I read: The user creates his/her key pair by running ssh-keygen(1). This stores the private key in [...] ~/.ssh/id_rsa (RSA) and stores the public key in [...] ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (RSA) in the user's home directory. The user should then copy the public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys in his/her home directory on the remote machine. The authorized_keys file corresponds to the conventional ~/.rhosts file, and has one key per line, though the lines can be very long. After this, the user can log in without giving the password. I followed these instructions. But the remote system still continues asking for a password. Only root can login without specifying a password.

Was very weird -- never had seen such a thorough clean. For me, Nov 01 backup was tainted and I skipped back to my Oct 01 full backup where I could recover the missing 35G. Certainly skipped a heartbeat or two until I fund a substantial backup. I have yet to go through any of the sub-backups in Oct but also don't know if anything else might be missing -- doesn't *seem* to be the case -- so was wondering if there were any scripts that might have been having a bad day running on my system, though that would seem to be a bit of a stretch. Certainly not thinking of any deliberate actions by anybody, since except for the build-configurations, most of it would have been downloadable from kernel.org and rebuilt. Just weird. Versioned-backups really are a life saver sometimes... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

LS, Just want to give some inside because of the outdated software in openSUSE 15.1. Just fear that 15.2 will not be much better as to up-to-date software. I hope there will be a hybrid someday between the cutting edge (sort off) Tumbleweed and the stable distributions based on very old software.

Alas, under openSUSE 15.1 - with it's mostly antiquated software -, which is their newest "recent" stable distribution, does the test "check_clamav" fails. This applies both to clamav-0.102.0 and .1.

[opensuse] Minimal autoyast file not working on Tumbleweed
by Jim Fehlig 23 Nov '19

23 Nov '19

Hi, I'm trying to cook up a minimal autoyast file that I can use while adding openSUSE support to the CentOS CI for the various projects in the (lib)virt ecosystem [0][1]. The attached file works fine for everything except Tumbleweed, where I get the following error None or wrong base product has been defined in the AutoYaST configuration file. Please check the products entry in the software section. Following base products are available: openSUSE-MicroOS (openSUSE MicroOS) openSUSE (openSUSE Tumbleweed) But I can see that 'base', 'minimal_base', and 'yast2_basis' are included in the large list of patterns available to a Tumbleweed installation. Has something changed that would prevent installing Tumbleweed with this small list of patterns? Is there a better autoyast <software> configuration for a minimal system that works across Leap and Tumbleweed?

[opensuse] Fail To Boot After Update to kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.82.1 ??
by David C. Rankin 22 Nov '19

22 Nov '19

All, Devs, On a virtualbox install, zypper up to kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.82.1 on 15.0 left the VM unable to boot - it hangs part way though the boot. Downgrade to kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.79.1 works just fine. Attempts to rebuild the init with: # dracut -fM --kver 4.12.14-lp150.12.82-default completes successfully but does not solve the problem. I have removed (zypper rm'ed) kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.82.1 and the system boots fine on the kernel-default-4.12.14-lp150.12.79.1 kernel. What to check as to why update to the new kernel failed? There is no persistent journal to check. -- David C.

[opensuse] Jstar: how to get ctrl-left and ctrl-right keys working, solved.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, It has been a long standing nuisance that ctrl-left and ctrl-right do not work in jstar. I got, by chance, a hint on nntp:alt.os.linux. There is this paragraph on the man page: «Unfortunately, there is no standard way to get the keysequence given by the terminal emulator when you hit Ctrl-Right Arrow. Instead you have to determine this sequence yourself and enter it directly in the joerc file. Some examples are given for Xterm and gnome-terminal. Hit ^Q Ctrl-Right Arrow within JOE to have the sequence shown on your screen. Note that Putty uses Esc Esc [ C which will not appear with ^Q Right Arrow (also Esc Esc is the set bookmark command, so you need to unbind it to do this in Putty).» - From there I got the sequences: ^right [1;5C ^left [1;5D Looking at both /etc/joe/jstarrc and /etc/joe/joerc (the mentioned paragraph in the man about Xterm is only in plain joe), I finally found how to do it.

[opensuse] zypper dup 42.3 -> 15.0 loses all LibreOffice Templates/Settings, KDE Plastic/Keramik styles not available?
by David C. Rankin 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

All, After having done several full installs of 15.0 and 15.1 with no notable issues, I did my first zypper dup --downloadinadvance after having done a zypper clean and zypper ref. The zypper dup went well (even with the NVidia drivers and cinelerra repos). However, I have two frustrating problems that are not present in the fresh installs of 15.0 and 15.1. First with LibreOffice, all templates, settings and dictionaries are gone. Nowhere to be found in the menus. Next, I use Keramik as the KDE3 style (in both 15.0 and 15.1 fresh installs), but after a zypper dup, the Plastik and Keramik styles do not show in the menus. The versions of the packages are exactly the same between the working 15.0 fresh install box and this box. The only styles shown available are CDE, Windows 95, Platinum and SGI (yuk). None of the core KDE widget styles are listed in Appearance->Style. kdeglobals still has my widgetStyle=keramik, but it displays as CDE (first in shown list I guess) The library files are all there: $ find . -type f -name "*keramik*" ./share/apps/kwin/keramik.desktop ./share/apps/kstyle/themes/keramik.themerc ./share/doc/HTML/en/krec/krec-keramik.png ./lib64/kde3/kwin3_keramik.so ./lib64/kde3/kwin_keramik_config.so ./lib64/kde3/kwin3_keramik.la ./lib64/kde3/kwin_keramik_config.la ./lib64/kde3/plugins/styles/keramik.so ./lib64/kde3/plugins/styles/keramik.la ./lib64/kde3/kstyle_keramik_config.so ./lib64/kde3/kstyle_keramik_config.la I have run kbuildsycoca --noincremental to eliminate a cache issue and restarted the desktop, no joy....

[opensuse] A slightly complicated permission problem with kvm/libvirt and an existing disk with images
by stakanov 19 Nov '19

19 Nov '19

Hello to all. I had to reinstall my TW these days. I have a separate disc mounted as /kvmimages where I hold the images of the OS. When I check, all is O.K.. The images are effectively present and they are owned by root:root. Now my user is called entropy. Entropy is member of the groups kvm and libvirt. As a matter of fact, he can start and connect kvm/qemu and then you can choose "new" - virtual machine - choose from existing images. When I try to do so, unfortunately I do not see anything because there seems to be a permission problem. This puzzles me, because while being entropy member of kvm/qemu he should be able to read them, even when owned by root. Am I mistaken? In this setup (see above) and respecting the security issue of not wanting this /kvmstorage be world readable, what permission do I have to set to / kvmstorage in order to be able as "entropy" to import the existing images. Thank you. P.S. PAM solutions are also highly welcome (as long as you are verbose enough and I shall be able to understand them fully). _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

If you want to turn it back on again, substitute the word on after the /h. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

by Doug McGarrett 17 Nov '19

17 Nov '19

[somewhat OT, but useful] When you disable Windows hibernation, you can then, using File Manager Super User, copy a file and paste it in a Windows directory. (There has been a lot of misinformation about this, but a file I just received today (from a Windows forum) tells you oaw: (see attachment) This allows you to download some Windows app while you're in Linux and paste it directly into a Windows directory.

[opensuse] syntax to download opensuse metalink4 with aria2c
by stakanov 16 Nov '19

16 Nov '19

I am getting stupid with the aria2c syntax. I did write aria2c --check-integrity=true --max-connection-per-server=4 --dir=/home/ entropia/Downloads M=https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_… But it fails saying: 11/16 16:05:09 [NOTICE] Download GID#412df6dcfe401aab not complete: Riepilogo scaricamenti: gid |stat|avg speed |path/URI ======+====+=========== +======================================================= 412df6|ERR | n/a|n/a Legenda degli stati: Errore. What am I doing wrong? I tried to set also x=1 (or max-connection-per- server=1) but nothing changes. What am I doing wrong. 我是太郁闷了！！！！ _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.
