Does it matter for the public that is considering what distro to install, are they scientifics? Are they going to analyze critically the phoronic testing? No. I posted relevant examples of people with importance (technical magazines that are read by normal people), and you discard them... Ok, go ahead, bury your head in the sand.

[opensuse] moving /var from a prefailure disc to a new one, saving a kvm installation
by stakanov 25 Jan '19

25 Jan '19

Hi. I have long time ago on my TW system moved /var to a separate disc. This mainly because I have my virtualised disks on it, with kvm/quemu and I needed a lot of space. I also wanted to avoid them, exactly in the current scenario were I did brake the system and reinstalled. Now the situation: I am referring to what I did to https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-move-var-directory-to-another-partition I have /dev/sda1 (for boot/efi) /dev/sda2 (2 GB swap) /dev/sda3 (root) on a ssd (sda) then /dev/sdb1 (for old var - this disc shows in smart prefailure and old age, read errors and had to be changed urgently). It was worth 500 GB data and was mounted as /var (currently it is NOT mounted as var, as the installation was not possible to a problem with the partition) I have a former /home that was already migrated on /dev/sdc1 (with 2 TB of space now) and that will be attributed to /var I have a new /dev/sd1 drive with 4 TB of data for /home (the old went straight anyway...). The system on sda and with sdd1 as /home works perfectly. Now I want to save my kvm data. I did mkdir /mnt/oldvar mkdir /mnt/newvar then mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/oldvar mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/newvar I then issued # rsync -aqx --progress /mnt/oldvar/* /mnt/newvar and copied all the old unused var to the new location. So at least the kvm data is now save. Now, I would like of course to mount the /mnt/newvar as regular /var and I wanted to ask: can I do this, or is it necessary to rsync the /var of now to the /mnt/newvar and if so, how can I be sure that data that is not there (my old kvm) is not erased and that my content of /var of the current system is actually taken. Or can I simply to what is in the howto and mount the old var (as logs I would only loose the successful installation... but temp system files etc? As I have not experience to migrate /var in these conditions, I would be grateful for some insight. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] CIFS and missing files in directory listing
by Roger Oberholtzer 25 Jan '19

25 Jan '19

I have mounted a Windows 10 share on openSUSE 42.3. On the Linux side, all existing files are not shown. They exist on the Windows server, but they are not seen on the Linux side. They are accessible. But they do not show up in a directory listing. There is a description of what I think is going on here: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-cifs/msg14405.html I realize that 42.3 is long in the tooth. But I have no choice but to use it in the system of interest. Anyone know if this has been fixed in openSUSE? And if so, when and where? -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Firefox 60esr - New Tab, Howto Remove .outer-wrapper height: 100%
by David C. Rankin 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Tail end of 42.2. Moving from 52.9esr to 60.4esr the new tab for search page is radically different. After disabling all the cruft leaving the search and top-sites (as 52.9) the search bar and top sites are now centered in the page instead of providing a nicely formatted search at the top with top-sites below. Digging with the inspector, the problem is the css on: <div class="outer-wrapper wide-layout-enabled" data-reactroot=""> where you have: .outer-wrapper { display: flex; flex-grow: 1; height: 100%; <-- this is the problem, deleting fixes padding: 30px 32px 32ps; } Removing the `height: 100%;` restores the desired layout. How do I make this permanent in userChrome.css or userContent.css? What do I put there and which file does it go in? Asked on support.mozilla, but no response yet, so I thought I would ask here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1247523#answer-1190570 (screenshot of inspector output posted there) -- David C.

[opensuse] Syncing two imap accounts
by Carlos E. R. 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Hi, I use imapsync to sync my dovecot imap on my laptop to my desktop. From laptop --> desktop, never in reverse direction. Actually, for the reverse I use plain rsync to copy across all folders. Brute force. When updating it now, I notice this paragraph: «imapsync is not adequate for maintaining two active imap accounts in synchronization where the user plays independently on both sides. Use offlineimap (written by John Goerzen) or mbsync (written by Michael R. Elkins) for 2 ways synchronizations.» Has anybody done that, any thoughts to share? The goal is to keep laptop and desktop machine dovecot accounts in sync, in both directions. Even better, two laptops and one desktop. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Upgrading OpenSuSE and repos
by Marc Chamberlin 20 Jan '19

20 Jan '19

Hello - I am still trying to track down and understand why my attempt to upgrade OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 to OpenSuSE Leap 15.0 has failed. After using an OpenSuSE installation DVD, to do an in place upgrade, my system was working partially OK but there were some problems with the plasma widgets and tools and and I was advised to try and do a zypper dup to fix those issues. That worked until I tried to do some further installation of some additional software and then I lost the ability to do anything with KDE. Both the keyboard and mouse no longer work at the point the login prompts are shown. I can SSH in to the system, and from that perspective everything seems to be working OK, services I want to run are running etc. Using the QT version of YaST, from an SSH shell, I have discovered that the repositories that YaST is using are still pointing at the 42.3 versions, so I suspect I now have a mixed bag of software from both the 42.3 and the 15.0 repos. Doing another zypper dup simply tells me there is nothing to update however... So I am wondering, could/should I go in to /etc/zypp/repos.d and change all the BaseURL references for the repositories from 42.3 to 15.0 (or perhaps to $releasever )? Seems like I could, but I am guessing.... And then I would think doing a zypper dup (or zypper dup --$releasever 15.0 ) might insure I have a consistent system? And this all begs another question, why weren't my repository definitions updated when I used the OpenSuSE installation DVD to upgrade my system?

[opensuse] SuSEfirewall2-fail2ban
by Marc Chamberlin 18 Jan '19

18 Jan '19

I thought I would throw this out for discussion based on my recent experience with this particular package. I installed this in my new installation of OpenSuSE15.0. I thought initially this package SuSEfirewall2-fail2ban was a good idea for integration between these two applications. But based on my recent experience with trying to install it I got to say either this package needs to be tossed or fixed, as it stands it seriously breaks SuSEfirewall2 and it is not an easy thing to debug. Some of the problems I had, once it was installed were - 1. It forces the startup of the fail2ban service each time SuSEfirewall service is started, not something you might want sometimes, and not easy to figure out how to discover and stop this relationship. 2. It has/causes dependency errors in the systemd launcher that breaks the ability of the SuSEfirewall service from starting properly. (this problem is widely talked about in other distros as well with their versions of firewalls, bug reports have been submitted, and no fix is yet available) 3. It caused/forced my networks internal NIC card to be relabeled as an external facing NIC, which then caused me to have 2 external facing NIC's and that broke all sorts of other services I had running on my server. (which led me on many wild goose chases trying to track down errors that other services such as Apache2, Tomcat, Apache James and even Named were reporting.) Given all the headaches this package caused me, my recommendation is to get rid of it, it is not really necessary AFAIK and my system seems to be running fine without it. Want to have some fun? Try it yourself, install the fail2ban service and this package also. Then restart the SuSEfirewall2 service and watch it belly ache. If you have two NICs like I do, one ext and one int then you will also see what happens with the int NIC. Yarrg!

[opensuse] VirtualBox 6.0.0 Win7 guest (dir in cmd.exe takes 50% CPU)
by David C. Rankin 15 Jan '19

15 Jan '19

All, If any of you are running Win7 guest in virtualbox, I'm trying to nail down an issue and need some help. I basically keep a win7 guest on the server to access over the LAN with the --headless option to use to answer coding questions involving MinGW or VS. I have used this setup since Virtualbox 4. With the update to Virtualbox 6.0.0, the Command Prompt in the Win7 guest is rendered all but unusable. Something has changed that effects the ability to 'redraw' the terminal as lines are output (slowing output to that of a Dot-Matrix printer) Attempting to move the command prompt window (or PowerShell window) similarly results in artifacts left of the desktop which are slowly repainted to complete the move. I'm working the issue on the vbox-users-community list and I could use some additional input. With my setup I launch the Win7 guest while ssh'ed into the host server with: VBoxManage startvm Win7Pro_32bit --type headless (if needed I set the resolution for the guest with) VBoxManage controlvm "Win7Pro_32bit" setvideomodehint 1440 864 32 (I have done it this same way for years) With the install I have with vbox 5.2.22, there is no problem with the Command Prompt 'dir' listing in the Win7 guest. With 6.0.0 it takes 20.5 seconds to list 176 files (do you know how long 20.5 seconds is just waiting for a short directory list to complete is? -- it's really long) So does anyone else use Virtualbox to access headless windows 7 guest via their LAN? If so, open a Command Prompt and change to a directory with a 100 files or so and type 'dir' and let me know if it takes a painfully long time to complete while spiking the CPU usage by 40-50%. -- David C.

[opensuse] Firefox javascript debugger
by Dave Howorth 15 Jan '19

15 Jan '19

I'm obviously missing something pretty basic, but can anybody tell me what? I want to debug a javascript program on a web page. So I fire up FF, go to the Tools menu and select Web Developer and then Debugger. The developer area opens at the bottom of the window but it is blank. Then I repeat the process and the developer area contains some ASCII art style buttons and two areas titled 'Breakpoints' and 'Watch Expressions' both containing text that says they are empty. It's all black text on a white background. Oh and there's just the top of some box showing above. I pasted an image at https://paste.opensuse.org/49017814 When I look at the mozilla MDN pages, they show the debugger as multi-coloured text on a black background and say there should be three areas at the bottom, with the right-hand one divided into four parts. So completely different. What am I missing? TIA, Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] leap 15, Nouveau and kernel 4.12
by Frans de Boer 14 Jan '19

14 Jan '19

Finally changed the default kernel for leap 15. First 4.9.x and now 4.19.15. As expected, I got rid of tearing - mostly the bottom half of the screen - while using KDE zoom functionality. I guessed before that 4.12 had a problem with the Nouveau drivers so I changed to another kernel. Now finally I can use Leap 15 as my production environment. Strange, however, that nobody reported similar behavior before, at least not to my knowledge.

[opensuse] Anybody find a clean UserChrome.css addition for Rounded Tabs in FF60esr?
by David C. Rankin 14 Jan '19

14 Jan '19

All, Web sites are slowly intentionally breaking compatibility with FF 52.9esr, so I bit the bullet and went to 60.4esr (from the update repo), and I'm trying (valiantly) to make this GTK3 monstrosity look palatable. One of the awkward looking features is the tabs at the top are now just square boxes (that frankly just look ugly, not to mention 40% taller) I have found some rather extensive UserChrome modes on github, e.g. https://github.com/wilfredwee/photon-australis which look pretty good, but seem heavy just to try and make Firefox look somewhat like it did in 52esr (from July) Does anyone have a tweak (or shorter version of the UserChrome additions) that will restore some of the rounded tab features to FF 60esr?

[opensuse] Upgrading to OpenSuSE15.0 problems
by Marc Chamberlin 14 Jan '19

14 Jan '19

I am in the process of trying to upgrade one of my computers to OpenSuSE 15.0 and running into a number of problems. I first started with OpenSuSE42.3 x64 with the KDE/Plasma desktop, and I tried to do an in place straight upgrade. I will also mention that my OpenSuSE42.3 system had something broken with the network drivers so I did not have access to the internet directly from it. So I used my laptop to download the OpenSuSE 15.0 iso file and burned it to a DVD. I mention this because I am suspicious that this may be what is causing me some of the problems I am experiencing, though I do not understand why that should be the case. After my first attempt to upgrade my computer to 15.0 it failed to boot. My research lead me to discover that the installer had changed the grub configuration so that it was trying to make calls to linuxefi and initrdefi. I don't use the efi filesystem on this computer and have no desire to do so. (don't get me started on how much troubles I have had with efi. I use it on my laptop only because I am using solid state drives and it seems that I must use efi on it.) My BIOS in the computer I am trying to upgrade has EFI turned off and only uses legacy file management. So I manually edited the grub configuration file and removed the efi suffix of these calls, i.e. made calls to linux and initrd instead, and the boot up succeeded. However, that lead me to another mess, after logging in to my account, I discovered the KDE/Plasma desktop was not working properly. I had a few konsole windows that opened up (ones I had left open when I brought the system down) but the plasma part of the desktop was not there. No background, no kicker bar, no mouse activity or the ability to right click and bring up the pop up menu dialog etc. In other words almost useless, although all the services and background tasks I have configured to run started up fine. (things like Apache, Tomcat, Bind, DHCPD etc.) I don't know how to recover from this mess, I tried reinstalling all the KDE and Plasma packages but no joy, so I decided to try a different approach - My next attempt was to install OpenSuSE 15.0 into a new/separate partition but I cannot get past the partitioner. It appears it is trying to force me into using the EFI boot system. I don't allow the OpenSuSE installer's partitioner to decide for me (it's defaults) how to configure my system as it makes choices that I don't want. Instead I have it import all my mount points that I have defined in what was my OpenSuSE42.3 (now upgraded to a broken 15.0) system. That much works fine and I just move the mount point for / to a new partition so that the new OpenSuSE15.0 system will be mostly installed in a different partition and I can keep my old system for the time being. However when I tell the partitioner to accept all the new changes I get a complaint - "Missing device for /boot/efi with size equal or bigger than 256MiB and filesystem vfat." Why am I being forced into using EFI? My system/BIOS is configured to use the legacy boot loaders and explicitly turns off EFI! I cannot find any means of telling the OpenSuSE installer/partitioner to use the legacy method of boot loading either, so I am stuck. I have one other complaint about the OpenSuSE 15.0 installer/partitioner that I want to pass along as it almost destroyed my entire system, had I not caught it. After I told the partitioner to import all my mount points from my previous system, I fortunately observed that it had marked ALL of my mount point partitions to be formatted!!! That is just plain wrong, the user should NEVER have to opt out of having data destroyed, but have to opt in to having anything formatted. That modus operandi really needs to be reversed, formatting of any partition should never be done by default. I will listen to any arguments to the contrary but I feel pretty strongly that this should be reported as a bug and fixed. (I am willing to do so.) Appreciate any thoughts on how to install OpenSuSE 15.0 using the legacy boot loaders and not use EFI booting? Sorry for the long writeup and please forgive me if I didn't communicate this technically correctly, this is definitely not my area of expertise! ...

[opensuse] Prometheus woes
by Dave Howorth 12 Jan '19

12 Jan '19

OK, another silly question. Does anybody use prometheus? I just installed it but I'm not having much luck getting started with it. I installed it fromthe Leap 15.0 repositories. It runs and --version tells me: prometheus, version 2.1.0 (branch: non-git, revision: non-git) build user: abuild@lamb69 build date: 20180513-03:46:03 go version: go1.9.4 so at least it runs. I can't find any opensuse docs to tell me about anything specific (no man page in particular) so I'm relying on the 'Starting' section in https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/first_steps/ which is not brilliant. I first tried running as my own user and failed with lack of permission to create /var/lib/prometheus/metrics so then I tried as root, which seemed to work but seems a bit weird, so then I tried user prometheus and that worked too, so is probably right, but it would be nice if there was opensuse docs to say so, and/or something on the web page to indicate it. Anyway, I then fired up a browser and pointed it at http://localhost:9090/graph and got a display. But it doesn't seem to work like https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/first_steps/ says it should. I assume it means 'choose the "Console" view alongside the "Graph" tab' as opposed to what it does say. But it just says 'no data'. I assume that 'the expression console' is the text box at the top of the screen but nothing happens when I put the recommended string into it, and if I hit Execute, it says 'No datapoints found' Prometheus appears to log to the console where it was started, but apart from some messages saying it has started, there's nothing to indicate any problems. In /var/lib/prometheus/metrics/wal I have two files, one is 434K and the other is 256M so it's certainly storing something! What it is if not datapoints is beyond me. So anybody know what's going on? Or can point me to some better/more accurate documentation? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Recommendations for Markup syntax format
by Sébastien 'sogal' Poher 11 Jan '19

11 Jan '19

Hi all, I have a project that implies writing quite a lot of technical documentation. By "technical", I mean it will include: - list, numbered and unnumbered - a few tables - hypertext links of sources - a lot of footnote - excerpt of code and command lines - images - side comments (i.e. more detailed explanation about a word or notion that can't be included inline, so it won't break reading flow, but rather in side or foot notes) I already use Markdown (common markdown) a lot but I think it will be limited for my goal here. I consider using reStructuredText or AsciiDoc as I have heard that they are pretty efficient and standard format for documentation. I guess that some of you already use one of those. Do you have any advises about which one should I choose, any pros and cons of each ? Thank you in advance.

[opensuse] Problem with a soft raid on system with 42.3 - contrasting information in yast and cat /proc/mdstat
by stakanov 11 Jan '19

11 Jan '19

I have created a raid with two dics time ago. The raid is a softraid in linux with RAID1. For quite some time it worked well. But now something is really wrong. The user is sometimes presented a "wrong" home with an older version. This comes and goes without understandable rule. The information on the RAID does not appear to be consistent. Yast reports: Dispositivo: • Dispositivo: /dev/md/homeraid • Dimensione: 931.51 GiB • Cifrato: No • ID del dispositivo 1: md-uuid-d9640ee4:3a9d7b72:68fa6b80:1b61dc7d ID del dispositivo 2: md-name-any:homeraid • Usato da 1: RAID: • Tipo di RAID: RAID1 • Dimensione blocco: • Algoritmi di parità: File system: • File system: Ext4 • Punto di montaggio: /home • Etichetta: But it reports the disc sdc as unused (it shouldn’t be reported like this, it should be active in RAID1 (homeraid). Non used: / dev / sdd1 Linux RAID To make this more puzzeling for me I have: # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md127 : active raid1 sdc1[0] 976760640 blocks super 1.0 [2/1] [U_] bitmap: 8/8 pages [32KB], 65536KB chunk unused devices: <none> The whole problem did arise when the PC had a faulty PSU that did not start all device contemporaneously or at all, as it seams. So suddenly the user found her/himself with two expression of /home. One current, one old, somewhat odd looking (no background picture) of the same user. This has been repaired with a new PSU in the meanwhile. No smart errors, hardware seems all good. Now when restarting the machine, in 90% of the cases the right disc is used. When checking in partition manager of yast, you find that: when all is O.K. / dev / sdc1 is used as active. When things go South on you for unknown reasons, the active disc is sdd1 instead. Both should be the same….but aren’t. Sdd1 should not be named as unused in yast when sdc1 is used. And sdc1 and sdd1 should not flip within the RAID and should contain the very same information. What is wrong here? I do not understand. PS. in the BIOS both discs are AHCI on the same controller. RAID function of the BIOS is obviously not active, to allow the OS to do softraid. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] what's the best way to make charts of spreadsheet data?
by Dave Howorth 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

I just made a chart of some data in LibreOffice Calc and was disappointed both by the process (very slow) and by the results (apparent lack of ability to modify the view). I've used spreadsheets sporadically over the years to make calculations but wouldn't call myself an expert and I can't remember the last time I tried to make a chart. So I know nothing. I'm wondering if I've missed something in LO that would help me have a better experience with this chart, or if there are better tools to use to draw charts from spreadsheet data. I asked on the LO list but only got one reply that only addressed one small issue, so I suppose there is no solution in LO. I thought I'd ask here to see what other software there is that can draw line charts, ideally from .ods data, and ideally with a GUI to set up the chart. But I can export the data in some other format and I can write config files to drive the layout if necessary. I'm running Version 6.1.3.2 of LibreOffice (actually the openSUSE build for Leap 15.0). I'm running a machine with an i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz and 8 GB main memory. It's normally fast enough for whatever I want to do. My spreadsheet data is in columns. Hourly samples of temperature and humidity. Column A is dates and column B is the times of day. I've also created column C that adds A+B to get a single value. Then ten columns of humidity data and eleven columns of temperature data. There are currently just over 5000 rows of samples. Making the chart was extremely slow. Every time I changed the Name of a line of the chart I had to wait whilst it cycled through several steps to make the change. Initially when I removed some empty columns from the data range, it took an age to do so. etc. Now I've created the chart and got some reasonable lines across it, but what I hope are the dates and times along the X axis are just a mess and I've no idea how to make them display usefully. I haven't found any way to select individual points on the chart to display the detailed value of that point or all the values at that time (a cursor). Nor do I see a way to temporarily hide individual data lines to more clearly see other particular lines, for example. If there's any way to do these things with an LO chart, and to speed it up, I'd be grateful for any pointers. Or if there are better options out there that can read .ods or .csv and display charts, that would be very interesting. Google just wants to tell me about a lot of diagramming tools.

[opensuse] SAMBA, mounts and KDE
by Roger Oberholtzer 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

We are mounting some remote Windows 10 shares in a user's $HOME directory, using the automount capabilities in /etc/fstab. For example: //ladybug/LADYD /home/rst/LADYBUG/D cifs soft,credentials=/etc/cifs.creds.rst63,sec=ntlm,vers=3.02,rw,noauto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=60,nofail,_netdev,uid=rst 0 0 This is working fine. In these systems, the Windows computers are shut down via an rdesktop connection. This is also working fine. The problem is that when the Windows computers are shut down, the KDE desktop freezes for a minute or so. The mouse moves. But nothing else is possible. Our theory is that when the Windows computers shut down, the shares are no longer available. It takes a while for the Linux system to realize that this has happened. And KDE is checking these directories because they are in $HOME. And while it is doing this, all other KDE activity ceases. I don't think it is a SAMBA issue. More a general remote file system issue and KDE.

[opensuse] ZFS?
by Lew Wolfgang 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hi Folks, A couple of my users have decided to stand up a large data store machine (NAS?) with as many as 44-ea 12-TB disks. They've grown weary of my way of doing things and are thinking about using only one or two HBA boards instead of a RAID adapter. Then, they're looking at doing software RAID using ZFS. Does anyone here have any experience with ZFS? How does it compare with Btrfs? ZFS performance suffers when an array starts to fill up, how does Btrfs handle full arrays? How many disks can be configured with RAID6 (or equivalent)? In other words, is there some maximum number of disks in a single array that if exceeded will cause performance degradation? I've had as many as 23-disks in a single hardware RAID6 array and it seems to work okay. Thanks in advance for any words of wisdom, Lew -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] node-red, node.js, npm deprecated?
by Dave Howorth 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

I decided to play with node-red. I have no experience with it or with node.js or with docker. I gathered that the best way to install it was to install the other components from the openSUSE repositories, including npm, and then install node-red using npm. When I did, I got a bunch of warnings about deprecated modules/components/whatever (I don't know the correct terminology). Since I've no idea what I'm doing, I have no idea whether they matter, or how to fix them if they do. So I'm hoping that somebody on here is more familiar with this stuff than I am and can tell me whether I need to worry. This is the npm output: # npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red npm WARN deprecated mailparser(a)0.6.2: Mailparser versions older than v2.3.0 are deprecated npm WARN deprecated nodemailer(a)1.11.0: All versions below 4.0.1 of Nodemailer are deprecated.

[opensuse] Puzzling timeout for a non existing disc - how to find the culprit?
by stakanov 08 Jan '19

08 Jan '19

I am running a system with a single ssd (notebook). /etc/fstab is as follows cat /etc/fstab /dev/system/root / ext4 acl,user_xattr 0 1 /dev/system/home /home ext4 data=ordered,acl,user_xattr 0 2 /dev/system/swap swap swap defaults 0 0 So far so good. During startup I have a 1.30 minute job running for a disc that times out. This is normally sign that a) the disc denomination is wrong our b) double. I am not understanding were I have to search for the entry. Goes like this: Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by\x2duuid-69fb75a4\x2d7dc0\x2d4dbf \x2d9db> I looked in cat /etc/crypttab cr_sda2 UUID=cab3c018-394e-4ee8-83bc-82096111e4b2 cr_ata-WDC_WD10JPVX-22JC3T0_WD-WXW1A372PSED-part1 UUID=69fb75a4-7dc0-4dbf-9db4-724e35370033 this ata-WDC is not really understandable to me, as I have a samsung ssd. I think here could be the reason. Can I simply comment that out? I am puzzled as I do not even understand were this entry comes from. Could it be a non well unmounted encrypted external backup disk? _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

Hello, I have to install a embedded system with a touch screen with opensuse LEap 42.3.

[opensuse] using libnss-mysql in nsswitch.conf
by Per Jessen 07 Jan '19

07 Jan '19

I know this is likely a long shot, but never mind - I have a number of systems using libnss-mysql to facilitate users/groups/password being stored in a mysql database. This has worked fine for years, but I am just now setting a new box on Leap15 and now it seems to fail because a connection to the database (over the network) cannot be establisbed at start-up, ie. before the network is active. That makes perfect sense, but it doesn't seem to be established later on either? The other systems are all NFS-root, so the network _is_ active on boot, preventing this issue, but I don't understand why the database connection isn't being retried later? Comparing the config between system1 (leap15 on NFS-root) and system2 (leap15 on local disk), they are identical. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (3.2°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] influxDB
by Dave Howorth 06 Jan '19

06 Jan '19

I'm confused about the availability of influxDB for Leap 15.0 Does anybody use it? According to https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/introduction/installation/ There are RPM packages provided by openSUSE Build Service for SUSE Linux users: # add go repository zypper ar -f obs://devel:languages:go/ go # install latest influxdb zypper in influxdb But that actually produces: 'influxdb' not found in package names. Trying capabilities. No provider of 'influxdb' found. So a search revealed two opensuse mentions: https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=devel:languages:go&pack… only mentions 42.3 and factory whilst https://software.opensuse.org/package/influxdb advertises an official package for Tumbleweed and five experimental or community versions for 15.0 So which, if any, is safe/best to use? And why are there contradictory sources of information? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] To whom it might concern - amarok's wiki - functionality has been kicked by opensuse, starting with leap 15.0
by Dr.-Ing. Dieter Jurzitza 04 Jan '19

04 Jan '19

Dear listmembers, to whom it might concern: amarok is (starting with leap 15) not capable any more to display wiki entries (this is what made amarok so special and valuable to me ...) The root cause for this is a disabling of the wiki - support in kde4 what in turn rises the need to disable the integration of that exact feature from amarok. If someone would like to manually get this functionality back: just let me know, you need to build both kde4 and amarok on site with modified spec files.

[opensuse] chrome options?
by George from the tribe 31 Dec '18

31 Dec '18

I am working on setting up a new API in python, and part of getting it set up is that I need to authenticate using chrome and selenium. Here is a section of the authentication program that I am running into a headache with: options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() options.binary_location = "/Applications/Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome" chrome_driver_binary = "/usr/lib64/chromium/chromedriver" driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_driver_binary, chrome_options=options) This was originally written for a Mac OS, so I had to change the directory for the chromedriver binary to the correct location on my machine. However, I don't really know what to put for the equivalent of where to look for chrome options. Having never used selenium before or what it is really all about, I don't even really know what chrome options are, and I am hoping this is just a minor point to get past the authentication portion of the api. I don't plan on using selenium for any further development of the api, but it seems that I have to for this small portion of what I am working on. Anyone have an idea of what I need to do about setting the location for Chrome options here in openSUSE tumbleweed? -- George Box: 42.3 | Plasma 5 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: TW | Plasma 5 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: TW | Plasma 5 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Steam no longer working
by gumb 31 Dec '18

31 Dec '18

Problem with Steam on openSUSE 42.3, running with Plasma on an Intel NUC 5th generation with Intel HD Graphics 5500 (Broadwell GT2). This is the standard Steam package from the 42.3 OSS repo. Rather annoying occurrence on somebody else's machine. I bought them a game and installed Steam for the first time (not something I was ever familiar with before) when last visiting back in August. I'm there again now but only until tomorrow, probably many months until my next visit, and they've just told me that the game stopped working some time ago. I apply standard system updates via SSH but despite my pleas to always advise me as soon as there's any problem, they didn't, so I've no idea which of the hundreds of updates could have been responsible. When launching Steam, I get the initial window and splash with sound and animation, after which the message 'connecting to Steam account [username]'. And then nothing, it hangs. If I click somewhere in the window I get a sound effect but there's no visuals aside from the blue background. I need a quick fix as I only have a few hours before returning abroad. Any ideas? gumb -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Mini-Kernel for KVM
by Thomas Wagner 25 Dec '18

25 Dec '18

Hello! I do KVM based virtualization and have a lot of openSUSE Leap guests. With every kernel update, every machine needs additional 300 MB from my thin-privodiond disk space. As far as I understand most of the required disk space is due to modules for different hardware. However, the KVM guest sees only virtualized hardware and there no need for all the kernel modules. Therefore, I was wondering if there is something like a mini-kernel-rpm available for Leap, which has only those modules included that are required for running inside KVM. best regards Thomas Wagner -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

At the time tried for alignment, but now sure doesn't look like it. Oh well. Seems like it didn't recognize 4 or 10 -- 4 is the extended partition --odd that it wouldn't recognize that. Not sure why it would have a problem with sdc10's type. Also a bit odd that it tried to read SMART status from SAS disks and RAID controllers, though theoretically it could have red SMART status for the disks in sda+sdb as they are all SATA. Another thing I don't like is that I'm certain I saw linux recognize sdb as having 4k-physical (512B logical) (type 512e - 512 emulated). But I would like the kernel to know about it "again" so it would be more likely to flag a problem if things weren't on a 4k boundary. Anyone have any of those and had luck getting kernel to recognize the physical size? Anyone else use an LVM GUI ?

[opensuse] GCC-8.2.0 error?

Still I see that ld is being searched on the host instead of using the intermediate binaries. The search path directs the searches also first to the intermediate binaries. Because everything else goes well, I almost must assume that there is a problem with a Makefile. Maybe as a pointer: I try to follow the directives of the - albeit seriously outdated - CLFS project. But following other directives from elsewhere lead to the same issue. Has anybody stumbled across a similar issue with gcc-8.2.0.

[opensuse] DHCP client, static routes are ignored by Wicked
by Bjoern Voigt 20 Dec '18

20 Dec '18

I wonder why Wicked ignores static routes in DCHP client mode. I configured a Leap 15.0 vServer (KVM) with the IP 192.168.110.142. The IP address 192.168.110.142 is assigned (static) by the DHCP server. The vServer needs a route to the 10.99.0.0/16 network via 192.168.110.82. Unfortunately the static route is not set. Is this a bug or feature? (So see the ASCII "screen shots" please enable monospaced fonts.) samplevm1:~ # ip -4 route show default via 192.168.110.1 dev eth0 proto dhcp 192.168.110.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.110.142 YaST2 - lan @ samplevm1 Network Settings ┌Global Options──Overview──Hostname/DNS──Routing───────────────────────────┐ │ ┌General Network Settings──────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │Network Setup Method │ │ │ │Wicked Service▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒↓│ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ ┌IPv6 Protocol Settings────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │[x] Enable IPv6 │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ ┌DHCP Client Options───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │DHCP Client Identifier │ │ │ │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒│ │ │ │Hostname to Send │ │ │ │AUTO▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒│ │ │ │[x] Change Default Route via DHCP │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ [Help] [Cancel] [ OK ] F1 Help F9 Cancel F10 OK YaST2 - lan @ samplevm1 Network Settings ┌Global Options──Overview──Hostname/DNS──Routing───────────────────────────┐ │ Default IPv4 Gateway Device │ │ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒-▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒↓ │ │ Default IPv6 Gateway Device │ │ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒-▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒↓ │ │ │ │ ┌Routing Table─────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐│ │ │ ││Destination│Gateway │Netmask│Device│Options ││ │ │ ││10.99.0.0 │192.168.100.82│/16 │eth0 │ ││ │ │ ││ ││ │ │ │└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘│ │ │ │ [Add][Edit][Delete] │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ [ ] Enable IPv4 Forwarding │ │ [ ] Enable IPv6 Forwarding │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ [Help] [Cancel] [ OK ] F1 Help F3 Add F4 Edit F5 Delete F9 Cancel F10 OK Greetings, Björn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Anyway to preserve currently installed packages with 'zypper clean (cc)'
by David C. Rankin 20 Dec '18

20 Dec '18

All, Is there any way to use a zypper or rpm command to clean the current package and metadata cache of all packages EXCEPT the currently installed working set of packages? From the man page, it looks like you either clean all, packages or metadata or you are out of luck. For years I've used a script to move older packages out of the package cache (off the root partition) and over to a directory under /home while leaving the currently installed packages in /var/cache/zypp/packages. For example under /home/admin/dups I have: 22:08 wizard:/home/admin/dups> tree -d . ├── adobe ├── cinelerra ├── gnomeapps │ ├── noarch │ └── x86_64 ├── kde │ ├── noarch │ └── x86_64 ├── mozilla │ └── x86_64 ├── nvidia │ └── x86_64 ├── packman │ ├── Essentials │ │ └── x86_64 │ ├── Extra │ │ └── x86_64 │ └── Multimedia │ └── x86_64 ├── publish │ ├── noarch │ └── x86_64 ├── update │ ├── noarch │ └── x86_64 ├── videolan │ ├── noarch │ └── x86_64 ├── x11utl │ └── x86_64 └── x11wm ├── noarch └── x86_64 Which after a few days/weeks of insuring there are no surprises with the new packages, I can just delete. The remaining packages in /var/cache/zypp/packages can then be rsynced to a local update repo, etc.. (not nearly as important with broadband as it was on dialup...) The point being, I always like to keep a "working set" of rpms. Is there a way that zypper or rpm can do the purge all but the current rpms from the cache? If not, possible feature? Arch does this with 'pacman -Sc', which is quite convenient. (providing 'pacman -Scc' to remove all) It seems like zypper should be able to do this too. Or, am I just stuck with the scripts? -- 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] apparmor / nfs: RPC call returned error 13

I have just 30mins ago updated a webserver which is on Leap15 on nfs root on real iron. Now I'm seeing an increasing number of $SUBJ. Kernel is the latest, 4.12.14-lp150.12.28-default.

[opensuse] Corrupted video display (intel graphics)
by Carlos E. R. 16 Dec '18

16 Dec '18

Hi, I have another situation with my laptop: unbearable video flickering (Intel) occasionally (but fatal). It happens sometimes after using kodi, sometimes while using kodi in window mode, sometimes it starts later. Once it starts it gets worse and worse till I have to reboot. It starts by the video flickering on the top quarter of the window. If I maximize kodi it stops. Go back to window mode, continues. Then it starts to affect other windows on the system. Yesterday, I used kodi for some minutes, then stopped it, then in Chrome I started to view a video on Amazon Prime Video, and it was heavily affected, but also in window mode, not in full screen. If I casted the display to my Chromecast, this was not affected, but video mode degraded to low res. Then I noticed that "Web Content", the children from firefox (all of them) were at 100% cpu, so I existed firefox, then killed the children. Then the xfce terminals began to have terrible flickering and distortion, it was impossible to read logs. I was trying to see if there was a GPU reset event. Looking now, there wasn't this time. The machine is running now leap 15.0. There was no problem with 42.3 a month ago. minas-tirith:~ # hwinfo --gfxcard 16: PCI 02.0: 0300 VGA compatible controller (VGA) [Created at pci.378] Unique ID: _Znp.rCqQQ9NkN2D SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.0 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x2a42 "Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller" SubVendor: pci 0x103c "Hewlett-Packard Company" SubDevice: pci 0x3069 Revision: 0x07 Driver: "i915" Driver Modules: "i915" Memory Range: 0xd0000000-0xd03fffff (rw,non-prefetchable) Memory Range: 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff (ro,non-prefetchable) I/O Ports: 0x4110-0x4117 (rw) Memory Range: 0x000c0000-0x000dffff (rw,non-prefetchable,disabled) IRQ: 16 (192437 events) I/O Ports: 0x3c0-0x3df (rw) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d00002A42sv0000103Csd00003069bc03sc00i00" Driver Info #0: Driver Status: i915 is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe i915" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown 26: PCI 02.1: 0380 Display controller [Created at pci.378] Unique ID: ruGf.MfB3K+fOff2 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:02.1 Hardware Class: graphics card Model: "Intel Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x2a43 "Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller" SubVendor: pci 0x103c "Hewlett-Packard Company" SubDevice: pci 0x3069 Revision: 0x07 Memory Range: 0xd2400000-0xd24fffff (rw,non-prefetchable) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d00002A43sv0000103Csd00003069bc03sc80i00" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Primary display adapter: #16 minas-tirith:~ # minas-tirith:~ # hwinfo --monitor 22: None 00.0: 10002 LCD Monitor [Created at monitor.125] Unique ID: rdCR.eLo9pOY7oOA Parent ID: _Znp.rCqQQ9NkN2D Hardware Class: monitor Model: "N156B3-L02 LCD Monitor" Vendor: CMO "N156B3-L02" Device: eisa 0x1558 Resolution: 1366x768@60Hz Size: 344x193 mm Year of Manufacture: 2007 Week of Manufacture: 40 Detailed Timings #0: Resolution: 1366x768 Horizontal: 1366 1382 1416 1466 (+16 +50 +100) -hsync Vertical: 768 770 776 788 (+2 +8 +20) -vsync Frequencies: 69.31 MHz, 47.28 kHz, 60.00 Hz Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Attached to: #10 (VGA compatible controller) minas-tirith:~ # -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

[opensuse] identifying the toolkit an application uses
by Istvan Gabor 16 Dec '18

16 Dec '18

Hello: I don't know if the subject term correctly describes what I want. How can I identify the toolkit an application uses? For example how can I find out whether my pulseaudio or audacious program uses gt2 or gtk3, or my vlc uses qt2/qt3/qt4? For example if I want to change the look of pulseaudio sliders I have to know which theme to modify, gtk2/gtk3 etc. Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Q: Unusable Teamviewer V 13 & 14
by Andrei Verovski 14 Dec '18

14 Dec '18

Hi, I have almost unusable Teamviewer on a number of SuSE Leap 15.0 and Tumblweed PCs with MATE desktop. It freezes connections on random intervals (usually very short). As far as I remember, same happens with KDE. Disabled UDP connections as suggested by someone on the forum, didn't help. Tried versions 13 and 14, none work reliably. Tested different configurations, its seems happens ONLY when connecting to another SuSE desktop, in other situation, for example connecting from SuSE to Windows everything is fine. This is somehow related to SuSE, because with Debian 9 & MATE this problem doesn't exists. With old Teamviewer everything worked, unfortunately, Teamviewer 11 and older are incompatible with Leap starting from 42.3 or 42.2, I don't remember exactly (TW GUI won't start at all). Anyone have any clue how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

[opensuse] Plymouth animation with Nvidia's early KMS
by Oleksii Vilchanskyi 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

Out-of-the box after the installation of > nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default | NVIDIA graphics driver kernel module for GeForce 400 series and newerthe Plymouth boot animation doesn't work. That package owns two important files, > % cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf > options nvidia_drm modeset=1 and > % cat /etc/dracut.conf.d/50-nvidia-default.conf > install_items+=" /usr/bin/chmod /usr/bin/mknod /usr/bin/cat /usr/bin/echo /usr/bin/chown " > add_drivers+="nvidia nvidia-drm nvidia-modeset nvidia-uvm" > omit_dracutmodules+="plymouth" So I proceed to enable early KMS via the kernel parameter, since the required dracut modules are already specified: > % cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf > options nvidia_drm modeset=1 All's fine, KMS works, but the > omit_dracutmodules+="plymouth" line obviously prevents the plymouth animation. If I do (notice the 51-*.conf, so should(?) override 50-*.conf): > % cat /etc/dracut.conf.d/51-nvidia-default.conf > add_dracutmodules+="plymouth" then dracut -f still says that the module will be omitted. So, I ended up commenting this line out from 50-*.conf, and plymouth works just fine. Questions: 1. Why is plymouth disabled by default? Since the required nvidia modules are already added by this config, what can prevent plymouth from working? Aside from the nvidia-drm.modeset=1 kernel parameter? 2. How do I re-add dracut modules after they were omitted (instead of touching the default config)? I would like to use a separate file, because I assume this one gets overridden with every package upgrade, and it's generally sane to separate custom configuration from vendor configuration. -- Thank you, Alex

Just give a try, eg vice (the C64 emulator) package. How do you locate it in the result list?

Not very informative. The file it says to copy does not exist. Apparently there is an inconsistency with sda3 but does not tell me nothing, as I do not know what the system really calls sda3 now. (fstab is empty it seems?). which command (in rescue mode) can tell me what is sda3 (in terms of hardware / partition. In bios all discs appear, so it is not a cable.

[opensuse] mailx - s-nail provides better features and current development compared to heirloom-mailx
by David C. Rankin 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

Note to Devs going forward, Opensuse has always packaged heirloom-mailx as mailx. Historically this has been fine as heirloom-mailx was under reasonable development through SuSE 10, and 11. The current package for Leap 42.3 is mailx-12.5-25.4 (which I believe is a 2010 release) By contract s-nail (https://www.sdaoden.eu/code.html) derived from the same codebase and further extended is under current development with the current released version of 14.9.11. While s-nail is a drop-in replacement for heirloom-mailx, (meaning existing options are the same, etc..), it also provides notable improvements. Specifically the `-M` option that allows you to specify how to treat the Content-type for body text redirected on stdin. Heirloom-mailx provides nothing comparable instead relying solely on the MIME type for attachment content type. May be time to move from the 2010 command line mailer to the present day. Give it a look and compare and if it makes sense, send it over to the factory folks. -- David C.

[opensuse] Packaging my first programme
by Paul Groves 08 Dec '18

08 Dec '18

Hi everyone. I have written a programme in bash. :) It is working great but I would like to package and distribute the script as a programme and I have never done this before. At the moment I have to call it like this: bash /home/paul/backup_prog.sh --some_arg --some_value 123 I would like to call it like this: backup_prog --some_arg --some_value 123 and also be able to install from a repository e.g. sudo zypper in backup_prog or sudo apt install backup_prog for ubuntu So I guess what I am asking is how to make a repository to distribute to multiple distros and how to package a bash script as an executable programme. Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me and advice on what to search for?

[opensuse] BASH Script Relay Switch
by Paul Groves 07 Dec '18

07 Dec '18

Hi everyone. I bought one of these relay switches from ebay so that I can turn on and off the tape drive in the server room: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Intelligent-USB-Control-Switch-With-MCU-Microcon… If you scroll to the item description it gives you the data to send to the switch to control it. I wrote the below little bash script. To change what the relay does I simply change the 4 data values. #!/bin/bash function byte() { printf "\\x$(printf "%x" $1)" } { byte 0xF0 byte 0xA0 byte 0xNC byte 0x54 } > "/dev/ttyUSB0" However some of the values are 0xNC as you can see by my above example. Now when I run the script it works but I get the following output: paul@paul-pc:~$ bash relay2.sh relay2.sh: line 4: printf: 0xNC: invalid hex number Of course the data is obviously hexadecimal and NC is not a hex number. But seeing as there is an error this must not in my opinion be the correct method. Can anyone shed some light on a better way of doing this?

[opensuse] Leap 15.0 won't boot on a Lenovo T420
by 712＠vivaldi.net 07 Dec '18

07 Dec '18

Hello, I've installed Leap 15.0 on a Lenovo T420 laptop twice, and both attempts resulted in a non-bootable system. During the first installation, I used the Suggested Partitioning option (no other OS on the HD). The installation completed without any warning/error messages. After the restart, the system was stuck and showed exactly the screen shown in the first 8 seconds of this video (not mine and advance apologies for the music): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfr6OldZGVM Using Hiren's rescue cd, I was able to boot the system from the cd, then start Leap 15.0 from HDD0. I saw a short notice that GRUB2 was starting (never saw that when booting from the HDD), then Leap 15.0 was starting, and I could log in. Leap 15.0 appeared to be running fine from the HDD. Then I wiped the HDD, and reinstalled Leap 15.0 with the Guided Setup. I noticed a GPT entry in the proposed partitioning scheme, but I didn't touch that and didn't change anything else. Installation completed OK. After the restart it was stuck again just like in the video. At both attempts, I've changed the boot order and disabled network boot in the BIOS to no avail. I've tried *every* available boot option in the BIOS to no avail, including UEFI / Legacy Boot etc. This laptop has been running Leap 42.3 for months with none of above issues. Because I need a running OS on this laptop, I now installed Linux Mint, and it boots fine from the HDD. Just thought I'd bring this to your attention.

[opensuse] how can I control for variations of an rpm
by stakanov 06 Dec '18

06 Dec '18

Normally in yast you cannot see the history if not installed. I have to control before install for a patch (fixed bug) that was declared 6 month ago as solved. But I did not see the patch in the changelogs. Now I would check in the history of the current package. The package is trusted-grub. I asked the bug-owner but I think he is busy or did not see. Do not really want to bother further and check myself. Is there a way?

[opensuse] Leap 15 install "bios_boot" partition?
by Michael Fischer 05 Dec '18

05 Dec '18

Trying to install Leap 15 over prior partitions: # Leave rust disk with swap and /home alone # reformat and install onto old / # format new SSD as new /home I *thought* I had that set up via expert partitioner, but then I got the message "Missing device with size equal or bigger than 2 MiB and partition id bios_boot". Google handed me: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/533410-Warning-about-missing-bio… which seems spot on, but not *quite* helpful? I have the old /boot/efi partition, which I told the partitioner to leave alone, and at 500GB, it is more than big enough. The current 42.3 was the original SuSE install, so I have no recollection of how that partition got there (i.e. if SuSE said to have one, and I accpeted, or if that was there from Windows and I left it alone, having some notion that it was needed, or...?) Also, do I need to explicitly tell the partitioner to set /boot/efi as a mount point on that old partition? So, is it that I need to be fussier with the bios boot selection when telling it to boot from the USB drive (with Leap 15 ISO on it), and insist on "UEFI" or do I create some "Bios Boot" partition somewhere, or ignore it all? Unfortunately, I cannot affort do screw around with this reinstall, as it is on my main/only workstation machine. Lots of TIA.

[opensuse] tumbleweed fails to boot hangs on initrd
by George from the tribe 05 Dec '18

05 Dec '18

So I ran the distribution upgrade for tumbleweed, the latest one being as of yesterday, Nov 30. It will not boot on the current kernel, which is 4.19.4-1. It also will not boot on kernel 4.19.2-1, the last upgrade a week ago, which is when this problem started. I was hoping that the new upgrade, which I did yesterday, would fix the problem, but it didn't. However, it will boot on kernel 4.18.15-1, and that is what I am on at the moment. Watching it boot, it hangs at around 30-35 seconds on the following line, right after it says "[ OK ] Reached target Initrd Root Device.": [** ]A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (35s / 1min 30s) I think that device number is the device number for the initrd, because it does not show up on my device list when I run ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid. On either of the first 2 kernels, it hangs there and will not get past that line. It actually does not even create a boot log for the attempted boot, and there is seemingly no way to get around it. The boot log for booting into kernel 4.18.15 shows this around the time it is working with that device: ------------ Sat Dec 01 03:44:57 CST 2018 ------------ 6e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (12s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (13s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (13s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (14s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (15s / 1min 30s) < the start job line is repeated many times with new time stamps as time passes > [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (1min 29s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (1min 29s / 1min 30s) [** ] A start job is running for dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device (1min 30s / 1min 30s) [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by\x2duuid-d3224276\x2d28fa\x2d44ad\x2db96e\x2dcd3d84fd2e6e.device.

I was assuming it was the initrd, so I ran mkinitrd again, and rebooted, but it did not fix the problem.

[opensuse] FTP to a box
by stakanov 02 Dec '18

Hi, I wish to ftp "within the first seconds of boot" of a fritzbox router in order to check for the hw revision. Idea is, that, since EOL, a flash with openwrt is indicated and could revive the box. I am on leap15, which ftp program would allow this in the most appropriate and easy way? I guess it would be good to switch of the firewall or to use "trusted" zone for the eth when I do it. Did anybody do this in the past and could give some hint?

Hello, I have an OpenSUSE 42.3 system. now fully updated with zypper up. Network time sync is enabled. The timezone is Dublin. which should be GMT.

I have right-clicked the clock and selected "Digital Clock Settings" and the timezone is correct, Dublin. I tried adding a Moscow rime zone, now on mouseover I get "GMT 11:50 MSK 14:50", even though actually it's GMT 13:50 MSK 16:50 - and the GMT in the command line is correct! How can I fix this?

Apparently this is done with cgroups, about which I know close to nothing. First I see: <https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/ht…> but I do not understand how to make use of it, except that I want to change memory.swappiness of the process. But I do not see where is that virtual file for the clamd process, if it exists. The examples there do things like: ~]# echo 1G > /cgroup/memory/lab1/memory.limit_in_bytes but they have a "lab1" entry for the particular process they are managing. I don't know how that entry appears. This is what I have: Telcontar:~ # ls /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ cgroup.clone_children cgroup.sane_behavior memory.limit_in_bytes memory.move_charge_at_immigrate memory.pressure_level memory.swappiness notify_on_release cgroup.event_control memory.failcnt memory.low_limit_in_bytes memory.numa_stat memory.soft_limit_in_bytes memory.usage_in_bytes release_agent cgroup.procs memory.force_empty memory.max_usage_in_bytes memory.oom_control memory.stat memory.use_hierarchy tasks Telcontar:~ # So I continue googling.

[opensuse] Q: MySQL 5.7 for Leap 15.0
by Andrei Verovski 29 Nov '18

29 Nov '18

Hi ! For accounting system we need old MySQL 5.7, and NOT newer. Is it available anywhere in repositories (may be private) for Leap 15 ? I looked here, and through software search, not found anything. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/database/openSUSE_Leap_15… mysql-community-server RPMs here built for very old SLES 11 and can't be installed on leap 15 due to missing library dependencies. https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=468312 Thanks in advance Andrei -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] DVD playback in Leap42.3
by Jon Cosby 29 Nov '18

29 Nov '18

I have some collections of shorts on DVDs. After the first short, VLC and GNOME video players lose the audio. Dragon doesn't respond after loading the DVD. I've tried MPlayer, which has always been reliable, but can only get the Spanish translation. libdvdcss is installed, along with the standard codecs. Full-length DVDs aren't any problem. I have GNOME 3.20.4 and KDE 5.8.7 on Leap 42.3. Can someone help me troubleshoot this?

[opensuse] cannot mount a LUCKS encrypted usb3 hdd - disk broken or software error?

I am having a WD disc as external usb3 backup. In the past no problems, but for some time I did not backup. Wanted to do so today but: Before I had it in ext4 but the file system seems not to matter. Currently running the system with the system kernel but the kernel seems not to matter. error message in dolphin, the error is the same whether 4.12 or 4.19 and no matter if XFS or EXT4: "Si è verificato un errore durante l'accesso a «Disco fisso da 931,5 GiB», il sistema ha restituito: L'operazione richiesta non è riuscita: Error mounting / dev/dm-4 at /run/media/entropia/7e04d0f8-bffc-41ae-91c6-509c7a9d2f151: Command-line `mount -t "xfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/dm-4" "/ run/media/entropia/7e04d0f8-bffc-41ae-91c6-509c7a9d2f151"' exited with non- zero exit status 32: mount: /run/media/entropia/7e04d0f8- bffc-41ae-91c6-509c7a9d2f151: can't read superblock on /dev/mapper/cr_ata- WDC_WD10JPVX-22JC3T0_WD-WXW1A372PSED-part1." dmesg: [ 4891.969438] device-mapper: table: 254:5: adding target device sdc1 caused an alignment inconsistency: physical_block_size=4096, logical_block_size=512, alignment_offset=0, start=2097664 [ 4891.969443] device-mapper: table: 254:5: adding target device sdc1 caused an alignment inconsistency: physical_block_size=4096, logical_block_size=512, alignment_offset=0, start=2097664 [ 4903.245763] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, no debug enabled [ 4903.248318] XFS (dm-5): Mounting V5 Filesystem [ 4906.141502] scsi host7: uas_eh_bus_reset_handler start [ 4906.144372] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#1 uas_zap_pending 0 uas-tag 2 inflight: CMD [ 4906.144378] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#1 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 ff ff 00 00 01 00 [ 4906.225425] usb 1-1.1.2: reset high-speed USB device number 7 using ehci- pci [ 4906.379346] scsi host7: uas_eh_bus_reset_handler success [ 4917.603989] XFS (dm-5): Ending clean mount [ 4955.156691] XFS (dm-4): SB validate failed with error -5. journalctl -r nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse udisksd[2583]: Error performing housekeeping for drive /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/> 0000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .....> 0010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .....> (g-io-error-quark, 0) nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: reset high-speed USB device number 7 using ehci-pci nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#0 CDB: Read(10) 28 00 00 00 ff ff 00 00 01 00 nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#0 uas_zap_pending 0 uas-tag 1 inflight: CMD nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: scsi host7: uas_eh_bus_reset_handler start nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#1 CDB: ATA command pass through(16) 85 06 20 00 00> nov 29 15:38:33 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] tag#1 uas_eh_abort_handler 0 uas-tag 2 inflight: CMD with EXT4 was: journalctl -r nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sdb: sdb1 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't sup> nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 43 00 00 00 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 4096-byte physical blocks nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 1953525168 512-byte logical blocks: (1.00 TB/932 GiB) nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver uas nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access ASMT 2105 0 PQ: 0 ANS> nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: scsi host6: uas nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse mtp-probe[5670]: bus: 1, device: 6 was not an MTP device nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse mtp-probe[5670]: checking bus 1, device 6: "/ sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0> nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: SerialNumber: AC0000000001 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: Manufacturer: Generic nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: Product: USB3.0 Device nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=1 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=174c, idProduct=1053 nov 29 14:33:30 roadrunner.suse kernel: usb 1-1.1.2: new high-speed USB device number 6 using ehci-pci But when trying to access data or the disc "I am not authorized (password correct and root also, the disc shows constantly "accessing drive" before giving up.

[opensuse] additional open ports in Leap 15.0 firewall
by Istvan Gabor 29 Nov '18

29 Nov '18

Hello: In previous openSUSE versions I could add/open additonal ports to/in the firewall in yast / firewall / Allowed Services / Additional Allowed Ports / separate lines for TCP, UDP ports. How can I do the same in the firewall configurator of Leap 15? I guess I have select a zone then choose ports tab and click add button. But I don't know which zone to select from the many: dmz, external, public, work? I guess the configuration should be permanent. permament - survives reboot runtime - doesn't survive reboot. Is this correct? Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] visited links' color in firefox quantum
by Istvan Gabor 28 Nov '18

28 Nov '18

Hello: I have set openSUSE list visited color link in userChrome.css as: @-moz-document domain("lists.opensuse.org") { a[href]:visited {color: #990000 !important;}} This works perfectly in Pale Moon browser. Recently I installed firefox quantum 60.3.0esr and added the above code to its userChrome.css but is has no any effect. I snipped the code to a[href]:visited {color: #990000 !important;} and it has no any effect either on visited links' color. I googled but could not find anything relevant. What would be the correct code in firefox quantum? Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] login screen changed after tumbleweed dup
by Simon Becherer 28 Nov '18

28 Nov '18

Hi, since about 2-3 month, after a tumbleweed dup on my desktop computers (5 identical) (now on actual tumbleweed 20181122) the kde-xorg (ssdm?) - login screen has changed. graphic is opensurce drivers, card is amd (radeon pro wx 4100) it was exactly the same update, on a laptop with nvidia graphic card, (and opensurce driver) the kde-xorg login screen has not changed. a other different is, the laptop normally has only one screen attached, the desktop always 2 screens. and the laptop was about one year before updated from opensuse 13.1 (or so) to tumbleweed, the desktops has been installed one year before clean tumbleweed. - but both have made a lot of "zypper dup" before this happends. the "normal" and now only on laptop login screen i have here: http://susepaste.org/2005638 and the "new" "unwanted" loginscreen on desktop i have here: http://susepaste.org/94134292 i was always hoping it will change again back to normal, but up to now no. i checked in kde: systemsettings / loginscreen and laptop and desktop show both "breeze for opensuse" -> and this looks like it should, but as mentioned, it is on desktop not like this. so maybe there is a fallback to the unwanted login screen? how to found the problem to get the "normal" login screen back? simoN -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] FYI: important news for all those users (that recently complained about Okular), you should read this.
by stakanov 27 Nov '18

27 Nov '18

Andrew Crouthamel did publish today: We will be holding a Bug Day on November 27th, 2018, focusing on Okular. Join at any time, the event will be occurring all day long! You can read the announcement here: https://andrewcrouthamel.wordpress.com/2018/11/21/kde-bugsquad-okular-bug-d… He particular states: This is a great opportunity for anyone, especially non-developers to get involved! Links are provided on his page. So, this is a word no? Instead complaining about not using adobe why not make yourself a home. I thought that you would enjoy this news. ;-) _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] Question on "backintime" - user experience needed.
by stakanov 27 Nov '18

27 Nov '18

I tried to set up a "back-in-time" installation for my friend. She is running opensuse Leap 42.3 currently. I did attach a usb3.0 disc to the machine. On it, I have the backup, created manually the first time in superusermode. Now, first the setting to do incremental backups automatically when branched the disc fails (seems a permission problem). I think it has to run as superuser. Question: If I set it up in a GUI session in root, does this work also when the system starts normally or do I have to set up in CLI via a startup script? Does anybody has a similar setup? The program should do a differential backup of all /home users, no matter which one is logged in, preferentially. It should of course honor the settings of the rest of preferences. Currently I had the issue that, when I do not activate checksum, it does run through with "nothing to do". So I think back in time needs checksum to be activated. I do not want to have "full rsync compatiblility" because I wish the backups to be read only. Is it possible that leap attributes a different path to an external usb3 disc although it has not been unplugged? In case this is so, is it possible to force it to give it a static path? P.s. I will not be able to put your advice into practice at once, but I am gathering input now, so that, when I will have occasion, I can try to set it up this time. Thank you in advance. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] VLC 3 and Chromecast
by Carlos E. R. 25 Nov '18

25 Nov '18

Hi, according to places, VLC 3 can send to a Google Chromecast device, but it does not work for me. <https://www.howtogeek.com/269272/how-to-stream-from-vlc-to-your-chromecast/> My problem is that VLC doesn't see the chromecast device. Google Chrome does, same computer, and I can play things "fine". Well, its version of fine. I have VLC 3.0.2 on openSUSE 15.0. I go to "Playback/Renderer" and the only option is "local". "Scanning" is greyed out. Preferences (Advanced mode)/Stream output/Access output has "Chromecast stream output" selected. Ideas? (VLC from a tablet or phone (Android) does work. Unfortunately, with the video files I'm interested on playing it plays audio, no video at all. Probably needs conversion on the fly - which is why I'm trying the computer instead, with no luck so far.) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.0 (Legolas))

[opensuse] Installation display resolution - Leap 15
by Gustav Degreef 23 Nov '18

23 Nov '18

Hello folks, I need to increase the text size of the install screens on a fresh Leap 15 install. Laptop is a new HP Spectre 360 which I bought for my partner. The installation screens have extremely small text because of the very high monitor resolution. I've searched Google high and low (OS forums, documentation, etc.,etc) and can't find the answer. Various opensuse documentation say to hit F3 or other Function keys at the Grub2 boot screen before the installation starts, but that produces absolutely no effect. I ran a Leap 15 KDE live USB and pretty much everything works nicely and I can adjust the screen text size on the desktop. Since I have serious vision problems, having very small text size on the installation screens is a very big problem for me. Any help is appreciated, Gustav.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

I don't understand the rationale. In my opinion this is an example of abusing secure protocol, not to mention that older browsers and wget cannot access the site.

[opensuse] Shared experience with a Sat-TV card and Tumbleweed (Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-5525 HD 6 in one Hybrid TV Card) - (nearly) flawless
by stakanov 21 Nov '18

This is only of interest if you are in Europe I suppose. If you are meditating to buy a new card or your first one, you may wonder what is compatible with opensuse: So, the card is a PCI-e 1x card. I do obviously not use the "bill gates memorial software" that ships with it. It offers standards: DVB-S (satellite) DVB-S2 HD, DVB-C, DVB-C, DVB-T and analog TV (pal/secam) and EPG. Comes with a IR remote control. Deceivingly it is not able to walk over waters or to do other wonders. (SCNR) Seriously: tested with opensuse TW and Kaffeine 2.0 using DVB-S and DVB-S2 and a centralized satellite dish. The card is branched to a floppy disc current plug of the powersupply to reinforce the signal (that was previously not necessary for users of PCI but PCI-e 1x cards may need it). Drawbacks: With TW it does not (!) run out of the box. The reason is that, although tumbleweed does deliver an astonishing amount of firmware in /lib/ firmware, the card necessitates of two firmware fw files (one for DVB-S one for DVB-C/T function) of the OpenELEC firmware tree. It has to be downloaded and copied just into /lib/firmware. The link can be found in LinuxTVorg. Second problem: Once done and rebooted the system, the card resulted perfect in all functions with the exception(!) of the remote control. I tried to install kremotecontrol and LIRC in TW, but although the file was recently updated, it seems that the program is out of support for KDE and at least for this card remote control, it does neither work in TW, nor does the kremotecontrol does show up in the tray or in settings. Otherwise the card offers flawless registering, watching TV and HD TV and listening to HD radio. So it may be a good choice for Tumbleweed user, especially if they have a migratory life style and change often vector. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

[opensuse] Is there any thought to offer TOTP (yubi-key or nitrokey) for bugzilla and other sites of opensuse?
by stakanov 21 Nov '18

21 Nov '18

I am using this for my email and discovered that it is not only very save but also very comfortable if you do not want to put your passwords in some cloud. Either one uses very long or complicated passwords and do not change passwords (or you cannot even remember them). And you should use a different one for every site. With the token I have to remember a PIN of 4 numbers, it gives me a token and that is all about it. You just have to physically protect the token. The kernel developer use this (AFAIK), it is optional in the site I use it, so people do not mandatory have to take the expenditure. Would this be an idea for opensuse? Just to know your thoughts about it. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

You may think so, and I do, but many people do not agree. In fact, I always install with a separate "/home" partition in order to be able to do just that: format "/" during fresh install if/when needed leaving "/home" with all my valuable data intact. I almost always upgrade instead, but if the upgrade crashes beyond repair, it is nice to have the alternative. > Like always, anyone ignoring this advice will at least be notified in > the partitioning screen of the installer what is happening to their > existing partitions before anything happens.

[opensuse] converting pdf file to an image containing pdf file

[opensuse] trouble with ssh connecting
by George from the tribe 18 Nov '18

18 Nov '18

I use ssh to sync my 2 laptops. I have all my keys in place, so it normally connects without a problem or having to enter a password. Until recently it worked fine, but now here is what I am dealing with. On laptop #1, I connect to laptop #2 with the following: ssh -X george(a)192.168.1.169 It connects fine without any trouble. On laptop #2 I connect to #1 with the following ssh -X george(a)192.168.1.180 I can connect to myself from laptop #1 to laptop #1 by running the same command ssh -X george(a)192.168.1.180, and it works no problem. So I think the port is open on that computer. Until recently this had no problem connecting. Now it just hangs. No error given, it just sits there. Maybe after 5 or 10 minutes it will say the request timed out, but sometimes it doesn't do anything except sit there until I hit ctrl-c to break the request. I can ping the other computer no problem, but cannot connect by ssh.

Hi, Upgrade 42.3 -> 15.0 again brought me few troubles. Network was up and and down in endless cycle. Quick check revealed, that networking was switched to wicked, which conflicted with Gnome/MATE NetworkManager applet (latter tried to configure networking on its own in a timed interval).

[opensuse] 'mv' a read-only directory doesn't work...why not?

The settings on file1 and dir1 for 'read-only' should affect the file and the directory, right? So why is moving 'dir1' from 'a' to 'b' disallowed? Shouldn't the move only look at the rw permissions on 'a' and 'b'? To "emphasize the point": 1) I can do a 'cp -a a/dir1 b/' which works. Since they are on the same device, even hardlinks will be duplicated. 2) I can then follow-up with 'rmdir a/dir1', which also works (no warning like when removing a file): > rm a/file1 rm: remove write-protected regular empty file 'a/file1'? I.e. the exact same actions 'mv' would do if I was copying between devices. So could someone explain why move doesn't use the parent directory permissions?

[opensuse] Can not send email using postfix on Bell, probably port 25 blocked.

Hi, I can no longer send email "normally", I get: status=deferred (connect to mail.gmx.es[212.227.17.174]:25: Connection timed out) on all mail accounts. My guess that suddenly Bell figured out it should block me or port 25 outgoing. Stupid! :-( So I told Thunderbird to send without using postfix, and that apparently works (if you see this, it works), but I want to keep using postfix. TH is using port 465, SSL/TLS, and password.

[opensuse] A start job is running for dev-sda9.device
by Istvan Gabor 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Hello: I have the following problem in my openSUSE Leap 42.3 system. I have an old IDE drive but I don't have IDE connector on my motherboard. I have inserted a PCI-IDE card into the motherboard. The card is recognized when I turn on the computer and the IDE drive attached to the card is also recognized. Grub is started correctly and it starts booting the OS. But soon booting stops with the following few lines at the end of message stream: [OK] Reached target Remote File Systems (Pre). [OK] Reached target Remote File Systems. [OK] Reached target System Initialization. [OK] Reached target Basic System. [..] A start job is running for dev-sda9.device (...min ..s / no limit) sda9 is the root partition of the OS and it seems the boot cannot find it and stops. In my fstab sda9 is defined as: UUID=97b17a79-12e8-4222-8702-972d121b9c9b / ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 1 I suppose the culprit might be the initrd, maybe sda9 is hard coded into it, but I am not sure. Anyway, how could I trace what the problem is and fix it? If I remove the IDE hard drive attached to the PCI-IDE card, the system boots normal. Some additional questions regarding the boot message stream: How can I read the lines scrolled up, that is scrolling the screen? Which is the point (what message) in the message stream where the booted OS takes the job from initrd? Another queston regarding initrd/initramsfs: How can I uncompress the initramfs to a temporary directory in Leap 42.3? None of the answers I found for linux general worked (gzip -dc, cpio -i).

Hitting ENTER many times eventually produces "Welcome To OpenSuse".... and a login prompt which works normally.

[opensuse] missing fonts on upgrade to TW
by George from the tribe 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

So on my laptop that I had Leap 15 installed on, I decided to try upgrading to tumbleweed by means of zypper dup. It worked well on my other laptop, so I tried it on this one. After I replaced all the repositories with TW repositories, I ran the zypper dup and it downloaded everything just fine. Then in the middle of the installation, it lost internet connection, and then could not run the script from fetchmsttfonts to download microsoft fonts available on sourceforge.

[opensuse] apcupsd Configuration
by Paul Groves 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

Hi everyone I have 3 servers. Let's call them A B and C Server A has an APC BR1500GI connected via the APC RJ50 to USB cable. I wish to set up apcupsd so that when the power goes off, Server A tells server B and C to shut down. Once they have shut down then server A should shut down. So effectively Server A is the 'master' and B/C are 'slaves' I understand this is possible but I have never had to do this before. Has anyone got a similar setup? I also understand that it is possible to have the UPS shut down automatically after the apcupsd 'master' shuts off and then the UPS will turn back on automatically when the mains power is restored. If so this would be ideal because then I can just set the BIOS on the servers to turn on after power is connected and have everything come back on automatically too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hello: I installed texstudio in openSUSE Leap 42.3 with KDE 3.5 desktop. I downloaded the rpm packages from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jsundermeyer/openSUSE_Leap_… and http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jsundermeyer/openSUSE_Leap_… Both versions (qt4 and qt5) freezes KDE 3.5 desktop. There is no any error or other message in the terminal window when I run the program in konsole. I still can switch to other terminal windows by ctrl+alt+F(1-6). How could I fix this or at least find out what the problem is?

[opensuse] ghostscript + gv / epstopdf problems after recent update
by Boris Gaensicke 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

Hi, I'm on LEAP 15.0, and a recent update of ghostscript (gs) to version 9.25 broke some functionality in the interplay between gv / epstopdf and ghostscript. The attached simple eps file displays find in gs, but loading it in gv, or trying to convert it to pdf reports the error listed below. Maybe it's some incompatibility between the new version of gs, and gv / epstopdf which call gs, but I'm not sure how to test this on my system. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

[opensuse] Qt Creator
by Dave Howorth 09 Nov '18

09 Nov '18

Does anybody use Qt Creator? I've just installed it on Leap 15.0 (V4.6.1 from the standard repositories) but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I've got the main window coming up and went to the first tutorial 'Help: Build and Run Examples' (Grr! another annoying program that won't allow me to select text!). Clicking on that brings up a web page <https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-build-example-application.html> and that says I should go to an example, but there appear to be no examples installed. In that case, it says to check what Qt versions are installed and clicking on that link takes me to <https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-qmake.html> and that says to 'Select Tools > Options > Kits > Qt Versions > Add' but the Tools menu has an Options... button and when I select that I get (a modal WTF!) window with lots of possibilities but none of them is Kits. Oh, and those weblinks are to Qt Creator Manual 4.7.2 so there's a possibility that the documentation is wrong because it's a different version. So what am I missing? Has openSUSE packaged it wrong so I'm missing some package or other, or is there a bug in Qt Creator, or do I have finger trouble?

[opensuse] display managers, startx
by Michael Fischer 05 Nov '18

05 Nov '18

I may have missed the story, and google didn't help (perhaps I used the wrong incantation) Questions: 1) Is the *only* reason for deprecating `startx(1)` the setuid bit requirement? If not, what are the other reasons? 2) I have various xset, xrdb and other commands in my ~/.xinitrc prior to the exec of the windowmanager. In the display manager scenario, are these still run? If not, what is the recommended way to have them executed? I wonder if this is the right idea? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/47359/what-is-xsession-for and moving the commands from ~/.xinitrc to ~/.xsession? I suppose the exact spot is DM-dependent? FWIW, I use fvwm2, specified in ~/.xinitrc: ``` export WINDOMANAGER=/usr/bin/fvwm ... various xset, xrdb, etc.. commands ... exec $WINDOWMANAGER ${1+"$@"} ``` 3) If I want to swap LightDM for SDDM, what is the recommended procedure?

[opensuse] Scanner settings?
by James Knott 04 Nov '18

I have an Epson scanner and have been using it for years with sane. However, the software that comes with openSUSE does not have any means to save settings. So, every time I want to scan a document, I have to select source and then choose mode, resolution and set the boundaries, even though I use the same settings virtually every time I scan. Is there any way to save those settings? Perhaps a better app? I have Skanlite installed, but it has the same issue. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] python question

I am looking to get started on learning python. Any python programmers out there? My number 1 question is, what is your preferred IDE? I am looking at a medium sized project (for my experience) and I expect I will need some good troubleshooting tools that also give syntax help. I have read that Eclipse is a really good IDE for python, even though it is mostly used for java, and that PyDev adds lots of features to Eclipse. But there are other recommendations also. Anyone have any thoughts on what you have used and prefer? Advantages and disadvantages? -- George Box: 42.3 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: TW | Plasma 5.13 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 15.0 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] eric the python IDE
by George from the tribe 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

So as I am starting my education in python, something comes up here that tells me I need to know more about how opensuse packages things... On my bigger laptop in which I am running tumbleweed, I see that eric6 is available from the regular repositories as an official release. However, in leap 15, only eric5 is available. Eric6 has not yet made it into the official repositories. On the opensuse package search, I can see that eric6 is available as an "experimental" package (and it is one version higher than the tumbleweed version of eric6 - tumbleweed has released eric6-18.09, but the experimental packages have released eric6-18.10. There are also 2 "community" packages available for eric6 - one is 18.09 and the other is 18.10. Then there are also some builds of eric6 that are available from the build service that didn't show up in the package search. So I am trying to decide what would be better - to download someone's community version they have made available, or the experimental package? Thoughts out there - what do you all prefer in situations like this? Do you all prefer a community package that a user has put together, or do you prefer something that comes from opensuse? What also would be your reasons for your preference? -- George Box: 42.3 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: TW | Plasma 5.13 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 15.0 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] [SOLVED] LibreOffice Calc 6.1.x Scrolling Crash
by Andrei Verovski 01 Nov '18

Hi, Today made a spreadsheet with a several 3D bar graphs and found that scrolling in LibreOffice Calc results in sudden application shutdown without any error message and loss of unsaved changes in document. Tested on different Linux distributions (SuSE Leap 15.0 and SuSE Tumblweed) and various hardware (nVidia GeForce and Intel GMA). Crashes were so often that app could be considered close to unusable in this particular case. After some tweaking problem was solved. Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice -> View -> Graphics Output / Use anti-aliasing should be off. Changing hardware acceleration option within LibreOffice doesn't affect this crash.

[opensuse] Questions about name resolving using /etc/hosts
by Marc Chamberlin 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

I am running OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 on a machine with 2 NICs. I am also running a Bind DNS server on the same system. I did an experiment in order to assign a unique hostname to each of the NIC interface cards by simply editing my /etc/hosts file as shown below: (sorry, I am not sure how to format this for a newsgroup.) bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost # added for each nic 192.168.10.100 bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com bigbangInternal 10.10.10.100 bigbangExternal.mydomainname.com bigbangExternal ::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback fe00::0 ipv6-localnet ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts My host.conf file is configured to look at the hosts file first when resolving names: bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/host.conf ## file comments deleted for brevity... order hosts, bind multi on My nsswitch.conf file is also configured to look at the hosts file first when resolving names: bigbang:/etc # cat /etc/nsswitch.conf ## file comments deleted for brevity... passwd: compat group: compat hosts: files mdns_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns networks: files dns services: files protocols: files rpc: files ethers: files netmasks: files netgroup: files nis publickey: files bootparams: files automount: files nis aliases: files After editing the /etc/hosts file I flushed the name service cache: bigbang:/etc # systemctl restart nscd.service and when I test things out I get the following "surprising" results which appear at first glance to show that the name resolving order specified in nsswitch.conf is not being honored. But something else even deeper is going on as well that really has me baffled: bigbang:/etc # ping bigbangInternal ping: unknown host bigbangInternal ??? I didn't expect that! bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.10.100 bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com bigbangInternal 10.10.10.100 bigbangExternal.mydomainname.com bigbangExternal that looks good... bigbang:/etc # getent hosts localhost ::1 localhost ??? I am a bit surprised by this as I did not enable IPv6 addresses in YaST bigbang:/etc # getent hosts bigbangInternal bigbang:/etc # getent hosts bigbangInternal.mydomainname.com ??? no response! why not? bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 10.10.10.100 10.10.10.100 mydomainname.com ??? huh? Why did I get my dns domain name? bigbang:/etc # getent hosts 192.168.10.100 ??? no response! My guess is that these attempts to resolve these names and ip addresses is being done by my bind dns server and not by looking things up in the /etc/hosts file. But I don't understand why given that I am specifying that the order of lookup is to be done first via the /etc/hosts file and then by the bind dns server if the lookup in the hosts file fails. What am I missing and/or not understanding? Thanks in advance for any guidance/clues as to why I am seeing these results.

[opensuse] ls or find on directories with millions of files ?
by Per Jessen 01 Nov '18

01 Nov '18

This might be file system dependent, I'm not sure. I've been doing some tidying up and got stuck on a few directories with millions of files in them. 3+ million per directory. Doing a 'find' takes a very long time and also essentially chokes the system. I ended up writing a small utility using getdents() instead, much faster and the system remains operational. I was just wondering if e.g. 'find' or 'ls' had some options that would limit the scope ?

[opensuse] help for downloading xpi from addons.mozilla.org site

Hello: I would like to download (not to install) screengrab xpi with seamonkey web browser because I want to have the xpi file with its original name locally. When I visit the download page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/screengrab-fix-version/versi… with my seamonkey web browser I cannot find any download link to the xpi files. I see only big green buttons with the message "Only with Firefox — Get Firefox Now!", and these buttons direct me to firefox download page. What I want is to save the xpi for later use.

[opensuse] Why doesn't firewalld start at boot?
by Dave Plater 29 Oct '18

29 Oct '18

Hi, I first did a google and a word search in this list and the support list and the only mention of firewalld not starting at boot didn't have any replies. I did a bug search but found nothing, in fact it seems that people want to stop it at boot not start it. My Leap:15.0 laptop has it starting at boot, the only difference is that the laptop uses network manager and this pc uses wicked. I haven't bothered with this until now because kde connect doesn't work without the firewall running. Why doesn't firewalld start at boot suse firewall did.

[opensuse] The D in Systemd stands for 'Dammmmit!' A nasty DHCPv6 packet can pwn a vulnerable Linux box • The Register
by James Knott 29 Oct '18

29 Oct '18

I just came across this article. However, as this quote shows, whoever wrote the article doesn't really understand IPv6: "Thus, a rogue DHCPv6 server on a network, or in an ISP, could emit specially crafted router advertisement messages that wake up these clients, exploit the bug, and possibly hijack or crash vulnerable Systemd-powered Linux machines." Router advertisements are sent via link local addresses, which means only the router on the same network can cause this, as link local addresses are never passed by a router. Also, SLAAC is often used, not DHCPv6 for clients. You won't see any DHCPv6 clients on the local network, unless specifically enabled. The WAN side might be vulnerable, but that would require an ISPs router to be compromised. I doubt most ISPs would be running Linux on their network. They tend to go for high end Cisco gear or equivalent. There are some Cisco models that run on Linux, but they're not high end. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/10/26/systemd_dhcpv6_rce/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Question re rsync backup and hard links
by Carlos E. R. 28 Oct '18

28 Oct '18

Hi, I just did a backup of my main laptop using rsync: rsync --archive --acls --xattrs --hard-links \ --sparse --stats --human-readable --checksum \ --link-dest=/mnt/backup/previous/home \ /mnt/home/ \ /mnt/backup/current/home The idea is that files that exist in the previous backup are hard-linked into the current backup, saving space. But how much did I save? How many files and how many bytes are hardlinks? Maybe the info is in the rsync output, but I do not see it clearly: > Number of files: 252,287 (reg: 237,101, dir: 14,772, link: 375, special: 39) > Number of created files: 29,678 (reg: 28,379, dir: 1,283, link: 16) > Number of deleted files: 0 > Number of regular files transferred: 32,447 > Total file size: 257.29G bytes > Total transferred file size: 16.85G bytes > Literal data: 16.85G bytes > Matched data: 0 bytes > File list size: 4.91M > File list generation time: 0.004 seconds > File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds > Total bytes sent: 16.87G > Total bytes received: 648.53K > > sent 16.87G bytes received 648.53K bytes 2.22M bytes/sec > total size is 257.29G speedup is 15.25 > > real 126m33.023s > user 27m19.699s > sys 10m16.830s Maybe the clue is total size 257G vs sent 16.8G I know that summing up all the files in the backup disk (XFS) they take 1105G (by mc), but "df -h" says the disk is 932G, 648G are used, and 248G are free, so indeed there is saved space. And after erasing the home backup (I did it twice, so I deleted one copy), which takes 245370M bytes, df reports: Legolas:~ # df -h /media/Erebor_2/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdb1 932G 617G 315G 67% /media/Erebor_2 So one home backup uses 648-617 = 31GB, and about 214G are hard links. But it is a roundabout manner of finding out... (I have doubts about what GB units are the tools using, too) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.0 (Legolas))

[opensuse] Adding existing encrypted partition in YaST after installation
by Jan Ritzerfeld 27 Oct '18

27 Oct '18

Hey, the day before yesterday, I have finally managed to upgrade to Leap 15. The system works fine! My home partition is fully LUKS-encrypted and while installing Leap 15, YaST asked me to provide the passphrase. I did not provide it because I always install new versions in parallel and migrate the home directory later after having configured the system and tested it. After doing so, I wanted to add the encrypted home partition using YaST. However, I did not find any way to open the encrypted home. I am pretty sure that YaST of Leap 42.3 and before provided the possibility to do so. Could anyone confirm this?

[opensuse] Leap 15 fails to boot after kernel update today
by David C. Rankin 26 Oct '18

26 Oct '18

All, Last line is Mounted filesystem with ordered data mode Opts: null and the boot hangs. Any ideas? Note, booting prior kernel works just fine, so it is something specific to new -19 kernel that came out in the past day or two. This is running in virtualbox. All prior kernel updates have been just fine. This one completed fine, but as soon as it got to the point of invoking wayland, it just locks. Using Yast to remove the latest kernel solves the problem. Booting with the -16 kernel works great. -- David C.

[opensuse] Filesystem Hierachy - Correct Mount Location

26 Oct '18

Hi All, I have a single 1TB disk on a server at the moment mounted at root (/). I have run out of space so I have installed a 4TB hard disk along side the existing one. I will name this new disk media so it will be /mount-location/media I am trying to work out the correct location to mount this disk. It will contain data to be server to the network e.g. music and videos. So data will not change often. I though /mnt but that is apparently for temporarily mounted filesystems. perhaps either /var or /srv Where would best practice indicate I should mount this disk?

[opensuse] orca ate my CPU and typing speed
by ken 25 Oct '18

25 Oct '18

Since updating the kernel earlier this week, my keyboard has been really slow. I mean I could type faster than the characters would appear onscreen. This happened everywhere, in web pages, in emacs, even at a shell prompt in a terminal window. So finally today I checked some things and found (using "top") that "orca" was using 100% of a CPU (this laptop has 8 CPUs). "orca" was first a child process of "gkrellm" the first time I looked in "ps"; but when I looked (again in "ps") just a couple minutes later, "orca" was a child process of some "de-dup" process. That wasn't the entire name of the "de-dup" process, but only what of it I can remember. So I killed the "orca" process. I haven't noticed anything changing in the functioning of my system... except that my keyboard is now back up to speed; the characters appear onscreen as I type them, as they should. So I can say, "it's fixed." But I was wondering if anyone else has seen this problem. And what the heck is "orca" for...? why do I even need it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Strange SCSI problem
by Paul Groves 25 Oct '18

25 Oct '18

Hi all. anyone come across this before? I have the following devices connected to the internal SCSI bus: Adaptec ASC-29320ALP U320 SCSI card. (Termination is on). HP Storageworks Ultrium 448 HP Sotrageworks Ultrium 1760 Built-in Terminator on cable When the server boots the Adaptec BIOS comes up first and scans the SCSI IDs. The problem is, whichever tape drive is the first ID on the SCSI bus. The scanning for IDs gets stuck on this drive for a while, about 2-3 minutes and the tray that takes the tape into the drive goes click click click for about a minute with the drives Ready LED flashing. Eventually it stops flashing and clicking and the SCSI card continues to scan IDs without a problem. When it gets to the second tape drive and so on it doesn't make it go click click flash and wait for ages. If I swap the SCSI ID jumpers over the problem also swaps. As I said it is whatever the lowest SCSI ID number is. Any clue what this might be? When the server boots the tape drives both work fine. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Asus M5A97 EvoR2 and logitech keyboard/mouse wirless with Leap 15. No wake up of USB HID after suspend to disc.
by stakanov 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

I have since leap 15 the following problem: The computer goes to sleep, after it is possible only to wake it up with the power button. Fair enough, that is expected. Then, they plasma desktop comes up, but the mouse and the keyboard have any functionality. I tried everything, included to by a ps/2 to usb adapter and try the ps2 support. Nothing. Prior to leap 15, it was straightforward, you would wake up the system that way and all worked like charm. As the system is AMD, I tried also the workaround with amd_iommu=on and immo=soft in boot parameters. No difference, once the system did suspend to disc, no way to get usb support back. I therefore think this is either kde related or kernel related. What did change in Leap 15 in the way it handles usb that makes logitech hardware unusable after a wake up?

[opensuse] Intel 82574L NIC Problem
by Paul Groves 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

Hi all, I am having a major problem on one of my systems with a network controller. The system has the Intel DQ77MK motherboard. This board has dual NICs. The first NIC, an Intel 82574LM works fine and is called eno1 The second NIC, an intel 82574L is the problem. The second NIC is called rename3, or sometimes rename2 / rename6 or rename7 etc.. It keeps changing. Whenever I try to apply any configuration to this NIC it changes name again, therefore I have no network connection. So I change the name in the config and the NIC changes name again. I have never seen a NIC called rename before. What is this trickery?!?!? The system is running ubuntu 18.04. Now I have probably confused you by posting on the OpenSUSE list, but the fact is I have posted on the Ubuntu forum and it has been 4 days and I have had no reply what so ever. It is still Linux after all, so hopefully one of you might be able to assist? Ubuntu 18.04 uses netplan to manage the network configuration. I intend to set up an bond in balance-rr mode as I have done on another system without issue. How can I go about diagnosing this? This is the first time I have every had a NIC not work in any linux distro (apart from broadcom wifi drives cough cough..) so I have literally no in-depth knowledge of networking in linux. so basically...

Hello everyone, The installation of Opensuse 15.0 was done in a diferent language than mine. After installation I changed the packages to my language.

[opensuse] Broken menu titles in okular
by Bob Williams 21 Oct '18

21 Oct '18

Some time ago I was fiddling with okular's settings [Configuration/Configure Okular]. I'm not sure what I did, but since then the 'File', 'Configuration' and 'Help' menus have had their titles replaced with the words 'No text'. 'Edit', 'View', 'Go', 'Bookmarks' and 'Tools' are unchanged. The menus still work. If I knew where these variables were stored I could remove that file and re-install okular. Removing and re-installing doesn't work, which means the changes I made are persisting, which is annoying. -- Bob Williams System: Linux 4.18.12-2.ga880bd8-default Distro: Desktop: KDE Frameworks: 5.45.0, Qt: 5.9.4 and Plasma: 5.12.5

[opensuse] Wired Internet Gone
by Mark Misulich 19 Oct '18

19 Oct '18

Hi, last Thursday evening my DSL signal to my house went dead, and didn't come back. Today the repair man came and replaced a connection module in the box on the wall outside of my house. Voila, DSL signal tested good up to the modem next to the computer inside the house. But the DSL modem didn't show that there was a signal. So the repairman replaced the DSL modem with a new modem with integrated wifi, and I was able to log on to the internet in Win7, WinXP, but not openSuse. He left, and I thought that I just had to configure something in yast to make it work. But it's not working, and the settings seem to be correct for the network. I can't connect to the internet on any computer using openSuse with a wired connection. I can connect using wifi with my laptop, but even it won't connect with a wired connection to the internet. I'm using opensuse leap 15.0 with KDE Frameworks 5.45.0. I will need some help to resolve this, so thanks in advance.

[opensuse] Apache Redirection
by Paul Groves 18 Oct '18

18 Oct '18

Redirect permanent / https://www.mysite.com/ or RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.mysite.com RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent] So these are two different ways of performing a redirect. I have always used the former in my config. I notice that the latter method using the Rewrite engine is automatically generated by certbot. So which is better? What are the pros an cons of each method? Why does certbot choose to use the Rewrite engine? Can anyone please enlighten me?

[opensuse] Two HP devices - compatibility question
by Radule Šoškić 17 Oct '18

17 Oct '18

Hi, I wander about Leap compatibility of these two devices: - HP LaserJet Pro MFP M28nw (T6B80A), or - HP LaserJet Pro M452nw (CF388A). Is there anyone on this list who can share some user experience? The first one is multifunctional and I wander very much about scanning part. Never used scanner on network before. Vendor pages are not clear on Linux support, neither on printing nor on scanning side. The second looks like more serious hardware. It's just printer (no MF) and vendor pages suggest that OpenSUSE is supported. I checked on https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Hardware, and found nothing about these devices. Can anyone confirm that any of these teo work on Leap? TIA & best regards, Radule

I should have thought of that. No, I thought of that because I made myself that question some time ago ;-) And I also wonder what would be the keyword if anybody wants the ntfs kernel driver instead. But maybe that one has been abandoned. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

[opensuse] What changed in the 10/2/18 updates to grub2 causing unwanted os-proper to run?
by David C. Rankin 17 Oct '18

17 Oct '18

All, Updates dated 10/2/18 in /etc/grub cause os-prober to run when it has not run in the year prior adding a windows entry to my grub.cfg? This is completely unwanted behavior. What changed? os-prober was installed automatically when Leap 42.3 was installed, but has been well-behaved up until these 10/2/18 updates. Why was this changed? Is it better to rpm -e os-prober? Or, can /etc/default/grub be trusted not to be overwritten so that GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true" will be respected going forward? -- David C.

[opensuse] Media playing via local network.
by Carlos E. R. 16 Oct '18

16 Oct '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Ok, I have a small computer that I use as home file and media server. So I can use it to play files stored on it using Kodi. It also has an Apache server. So I try to watch movies on my tablet, served from my home server. I select a file using the default web brower, tap on it, choose play directly with VLC, and it plays directly without downloading the file in full first. It works fine. I can also select a point of the movie at random and go from that point. But I can't do the same on my laptop, it can't cope despite having much more power. Intel video. First I try with "kodi". Kodi can add video sources: I try "http" and "ssh". Both work, but after a bit the audio gets out of sync with the video. Same problem if I select ssh source (actually sftp). CPU load seems to be 80..90%. So I try vlc: vlc "http://Isengard.valinor/.../file.avi" It plays, but also here the sound gets out of sync, and frames seem to be missing. So I download the file with wget, then play it directly with VLC: plays fine this time. Local play. Then I try another type of remote "download": sshfs cer@Isengard.valinor:/ ~/fusermount/ which mounts the remote system at directory ~/fusermount/, and videos play fine. CPU load seems to be lower, around 60..70% Most of the problems happen with videos recorded from digital tv stream (mpeg). But the same videos play fine when I use fusermount instead of telling VLC to do the downloading. Kodi using fusermount with the same video file gets out of sync. What should I look at? I can not increase the power of the laptop, and anyway, the tablet seems to handle the situation much better. Well, it is also a somewhat smaller display... Ideas? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] OT: RGB Video Conversion
by Paul Groves 16 Oct '18

16 Oct '18

Not strictly open SUSE, but technically kind of related as I will be using an openSUSE PC in this set up. Does anyone have any experience with Extron RGB devices? I have some games consoles and a dvd player which all use either Composite / S-Video / YPbPr / RGsB / RGBS and also a PC with a VGA output which is RGBHV. I intend to connect all these devices to an Extron MVX 84 VGA A switch. The first problem is than not all of these signals are RGB. Extron have suggested the DVS 304 which they say will take all the above signals from my switch and convert them to either RGBS or RGBHV. This is great because I have two monitors I can use. One accepts RGBHV (VGA Monitor) and the other accepts RGBS (CRT TV). The problem I have if you may have spotted it is that I have two different sync signal frequencies. The PC being VGA is 31KHz H-sync (meant for VGA) and all of the other devices are 15.6KHz (meant for RGB TVs). So what I want to know is; can I use a device such as the Extron DVS 304 to convert all of the input sync frequencies to either 15.6KHz or 31KHz so that I can use one of my two available monitors? Any advice will be appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What is your favorite Dropbox replacement?
by Albert Oszkó 16 Oct '18

16 Oct '18

Hi all, Probably many of you got a warning from Dropbox that from this November it will only support ext4 filesystems (from the linux world). Unfortunately my two most used computers have XFS filesystem, so I am in a bit trouble. Before moving - to my regret - to something other cloud storage, I would like to ask your opininon: how do you manage this question. Google drive would be an obvious choice, but I still do not know of a decent linux client. Albert
