TUMBLEWEED Table crontab does not launch works.

$
0
0
Hi!
I have the Tumbleweed version 20210330.
I have always launched applications and commands from crontab tables on opensuse and other systems.
However, now I can't get crontab to work. I've tried to launch from the crontab present in the / etc / crontab folder and also in / var / spool / cron / tabs /.
The crontab service is active and running on Yast.
This is my crontab:

#
#
* * * * * date >> / home / eragontux / testedate

I usually use this line to do the test and it has always worked. I don't know, but it seems that the crontab tables are not being taken over by the cron system. Will be?

Any idea?

Thanks.

LEAP 15.2 how to clear boot section lines

Build using python based waf build system

$
0
0
Hello everyone and I wish you a nice morning/day/evening/night.

I am currently working on a package inside my test OBS repo which uses the python based waf build system and I have two problems:

1)

I already checked the packaging guide for python and experimented with the macros like:
Code:

BuildRequires %{pythons}
and to run the waf script using:

Code:

%python_exec waf configure build
and so on.

But it seems the waf script only works with python 2 and the macro pythons will add python 3.8 and also the execute will run stuff with 3.8 cuz it is the latest python in the tumbleweed repos I guess.
How do I tell it to use a certain version python instead of using switches based on the python flavor which was chosen by the build system?

Like:

Code:

%if "%{python_flavor}" == "python2"
Requires: python2-enum34
%endif

Instead I want it to use python2 in the first place.

I circumvented this issue by not using any macros at all and to run the waf script directly as:

Code:

python waf configure build
But I already know this is bad practice and at least when I try to submit the packages to the games repos I will need to change this in any case before it gets approved.

Could someone point me to some spec files where the python waf build system was used or some documentation so I might get the required info from there? :)

2)
My 2nd issue is that the project which should be build using waf does not compile nicely with gcc10 and gcc9 can be used at max.
I talked to the devs already and he was able to reproduce my compiling issues I am facing due to this with gcc10 as well and suggested me to try running waf as follows:

Code:

"CC=gcc-9 waf configure build"
My question is now: How do I properly set environment variables in a spec file and how to properly use the waf build system overall?

Since as described above I had some issues with %python_exec waf ... due to it picking python 3.8.8 which fails to run the waf script.


I appreciate any form of help which may lead me to the solutions I need :D

Thank you very much in advance and I wish you all a very nice day.

LEAP 15.2 Crypttab not found!...

Installed Leap 15.2 on a new machine using XFS / LVM with 4HD's, 3 were already encrypted from another machine using RHEL8 XFS.

openSUSE does not handle auto mounting encrypted disk anymore? I've done this before, so I'm using the current build is the problem. I'm using gnome-disk-util (Disks) in trying to get this to work, but I keep the messaging about the "crypttab" not found. How is this done now in Leap?

The error we get on my wife's laptop is 'malfunctioning repo opensuse leap 15.1 repo' not identified.
It does not say which Leap 15.1 repo!

Problem is I can't find any reference to Leap 15.1 in the repo list in YaST.
Just the standard opensuse things, packman, google, and saurland's repo for the WiFi dongle in her machine

Where do I start looking for any reference left on my wife's laptop relating Leap 15.1?

LEAP 15.2 Evince side panel does not go away.

Hi,

In earlier versions, Evince had a button to hide the side panel. But in LEAP 15.2, that functionality has disappeared. Is there a way now to hide the side panel? There is a button to hide the contents of the side panel but it continues to occupy space on the screen. I want to hide it to make space for other application windows. Suggestions are most welcome.
Thanks & Regards,

TUMBLEWEED OpenFOAM's Paraview Compilation "VTK undefined reference"

$

Hi all,
I am a new OpenSUSE Tumbleweed user. I came from Arch/Ubuntu to OpenSUSE as it has both the rolling system and official support to OpenFOAM. I compiled OpenFOAM v2012 successfully, but the issue arises for the paraview part.. at over 50% of compilation, it throws a bunch of "undefined reference" errors related to VTK and stopped.
here is the starting of issue
Code:

vtkProbeOpenGLVersion.cxx:(.text._ZN30vtkRenderingOpenGL2_ModuleInitD2Ev[_ZN30vtkRenderingOpenGL2_ModuleInitD5Ev]+0x5): undefined reference to `vtkRenderingOpenGL2_AutoInit_Destruct()'
i tried searching online and did suggestions regarding installing VTK libraries.. but it failed.. whereas when i was in Ubuntu, i compiled it properly. I followed the official guide for compilation
this link is for dependencies https://develop.openfoam.com/Develop...equirements.md

this link is for official instructions https://develop.openfoam.com/Development/ThirdParty-common/blob/develop/BUILD.md

and here is the log file of compilation https://filebin.net/nnes8fm6h1f1rwbc
i cannot find a way to attach the file in here, hence used filebin..

i tried compiling VTK (of suggested version) as well, it threw a similar error and its log file can be found at https://filebin.net/uc2t6wizryypb8sa

i have been trying this over a couple of weeks now.. please help me if u figure out something

Thank you in advance and be safe!

I have problems connecting my computer via LAN through a vodastation router to the internet. The vodastation works (I am sending this message through its WLAN-access channel). Here are my settings for the network/LAN with the following subsections:

global: Wicked service; hostname=AUTO; standard route via DHCP

overview: 82579LM Gigabit network connection (Lewisville) ip-address=DHCP device=eth0

hostname: TL-WR80in2N; domain name=BG; attach hostname to loopback and set hostname via DHCP yes: eth0; nameservers 192.168.0.1 + 192.168.2.1

routing: standard ip4 gateway=192.168.0.1 (obtained from vodastation settings as gateway ip-address

I also checked the entries in nsswitch.config. They are a bit strange:
hosts: mdns_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns
networks: files dns

Thank you for your comments, BGliss

OTHER VERSION OS get frequently stuck, with intensive HDD activity

$

Hello!

I have a notebook HP 250 G6, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD SATA 5400rpm on which I installed OpenSuse Leap 15.0.

Almost always, after few minutes from startup, the entire system get freezed: no mouse movement, no keyboard input, and the HDD starts an intensive work with distinct noise from both HDD and cooler fan.

The problem can last for several minutes, sometimes I get impatient and make a hard reboot. Then it runs well, until the next time.

There's no way I can work smoothly for more than half an hour without either reboot (by power button) or have a break to let it "calm down".

What are the applications running when the system get stuck? Essentially only Firefox, or sometimes two instances of Firefox.

Mi problem is very similar to this one https://forums.opensuse.org/showthre...ht=freeze+disk but with some differences: I have a btrfs partition.

I put here below the output of the commands you requested to the fellow user.

TUMBLEWEED EFI System Partition: Using it as /boot versus /boot/efi

$
0
0
This is a more generic Linux question. As I have an EFI motherboard with Secure Boot I need an ESP partition: I have one mounted as /boot/efi and it works fine on this installation. But I was wondering; Is there any disadvantage to making the entirety of /boot my ESP? That way I can make better use of the 4GB I assign to it, having it store grub and the kernel images too... they're all loaded temporarily as part of the boot process so it makes sense to use this one little partition for everything! As long as it's fat32 there shouldn't be anything breaking the configuration right? Especially on a machine where I don't plan to dual-boot, only one OS installed on the main drive so there would be no kernel image conflicts.

Just in case though I wanted to ask for opinions: Does anyone else place the entirety of /boot on the EFI partition instead of just /boot/efi? Does it work well for you, do you find it more optimal this way? As a bonus question; Is exfat (fat64) a newer and better partition format to use, or is it still a good idea to stick to fat32 exclusively for the ESP else the BIOS might complain?

I got the system up, after the upgrade install and I have two monitors (same two I started with), and I can't set the resolution to the "VGA" monitor to anything beyond 1024x768.

So I did a xrandr:

720x400 70.08

I went to yast2 and did a search for nouveau and saw that mesa-dri-nouveau is prohibited (something I did to 15.1 so that the monitors would be correctly recognized and the system would use the non-generic drivers).

Before I force nouveau off my system -- am I about to cause more problems? The card I have shows to be a GeForce GT 730 and with 15.1 it allowed both monitors to display with the same resolution (they are the same physical display sizes but one is Lenovo and the other Samsung). I really need that back as the VGA monitor displays a "window" off the top sides and bottom if I drag it from the DVI monitor.

Thanks in advance for replies. It will be a while before I get back to this -- problems with work systems I do know how to work on (mainframe stuff) . :)

Hi All,

I have LEAP installed on a 480gb SSD (sda) but I also have a 680Gb sdb which is an LSI Logical Volume - I want to set this up so I can share data with other devices in my network (mainly windows). Only think is I am not used to "Partitioner" so not sure how to go about it.
