Hi all,

I have a linux box with Leap 15.2 installed.
It is joined in a Active directory domain.

I want one specific domain user to be able to get privileges to launch Yast or other programs from GUI. I setup sudo no problem from terminal to use sudo commands with the user password ( disabled targetpw )

Everything is working fine, except I cannot gain privileges in the GUI , if I launch Yast ( for example ) , the OS is asking for root password and I don't want this. I have an ubuntu setup joined with sssd configured and in that case adding the domain user to the adm and sudo group was enough to get all working. Is there a way to have the same results in opensuse ?

Best Regards,

Simo

Every time I log in to my desktop I find some of the settings have changed. Specifically, the keyboard layout is no longer English UK (eg @ and " are reversed, and no £), the wallpaper is changed to plain black not an image and the icons changed from horizontal layout to vertical and large size.

I just open Desktop configuration and change to the correct settings which are then OK for the rest of the session. Then next time I log-in they are changed back.

What can I do to ensure the correct settings are retained and used each session? This is becoming tedious.

Hi all,

I have a linux box joined to an active directory domain.
My problem is that I want to browse the local network and enter the shared folders with the same account I have logged in my linux box with my Leap 15.2 .

So I enter my linux box with my user@domain.com , after that with dolphin browse the network and enter the network folder directly without having to insert my login credentials again ( of course in the shared folder where I already have my rights to enter ). This usually works in other linux OSes that are joined in my network but not with Suse. Do I have to enable samba domain configuration and sssd configuration at the same time?

This is not happening and I cannot understand how to solve this. My configuration is based on the Suse tutorials, I joined the domain using yast User Logon Management ( sssd ) and selecting active directory domain. Everything else seems to work quite well, except for some GUI root privileges I cannot manage for domain users but this is in another topic I already opened.

any idea?

Best Regards,
Simo

Hi guys!

I'm writing this post to help another people with this problem, but also to understand a little more with you guys, if possible.

After uptading to kernel 5.11.15 my wireless device stopped, but I changed to the previous kernel version on boot and ignored it. Today I made zypper dup and my functional kernel was removed, resulting in neither, 5.11.15 and 5.12.4, working with my wireless device.

My wireless device is a Atheros AR9485 as you can see on lspci:

Code:

1c:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

The dmesg output with dmesg | grep -E 'ath|cfg80' showed:

Code:

[    5.449501] cfg80211: Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates for regulatory database

[    5.449692] cfg80211: Loaded X.509 cert 'sforshee: 00b28ddf47aef9cea7'

[    5.814081] ath9k 0000:1c:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)

[    5.822338] ath: EEPROM indicates we should expect a direct regpair map

[    5.822338] ath: Country alpha2 being used: BB

[    6.066413] ath9k 0000:1c:00.0 wlp28s0: renamed from wlan0

Looking around I learned that could be a missing or wrong country code. I live in Brazil, so I create a file on /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf:

Code:

softdep ath9k pre: cfg80211

options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=BR

Unload and reload the module:

Code:

modprobe -r ath9k

modprobe -v ath9k

After this the wireless is working again!

But this was a "luck guess". How could I track this change from the last working kernel to my current kernel version?

Previously I had PostgreSQL 13 installed. I just removed it by:

Code:

> sudo zypper rm 'postgres*'



> sudo zypper rr PostgreSQL



> sudo rm -rf /usr/local/var/postgres

Then I install PostgreSQL 12 by instructions here:

Code:

> sudo zypper addrepo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:database:postgresql/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ PostgreSQL



> sudo zypper ref



> sudo zypper in -f postgresql postgresql-server postgresql-contrib



> sudo zypper in -f postgresql-plperl postgresql-plpython postgresql-pltlc



> sudo systemctl enable postgresql



> sudo systemctl start postgresql

But the database status is faulty:

Code:

> sudo systemctl status postgresql.service

How can I install PostgreSQL 12 and get rid of PostgreSQL 13 database files?

Using KDE Partition Manager to format USB flash drives: NTFS succeeds with no problem. But the same drive formatted ExFAT it claims to have succeeded, and KDE thinks it's a valid drive, until it tries to write to the drive, then it fails. Windows considers those ExFAT drives to be unformatted. Both Windows & OpenSUSE will work with the ExFAT drives after Windows formats them as ExFAT. Repeatable 100% of the time.

Using OpenSUSE 15.2 KDE on AMD 64 bit system. Multiple flash drives tested, mostly SanDisk.

Any suggestions?

I'm trying to build a project using OBS.

So far I have managed to fetch the sources from github, and extract the .spec file. I've managed to define dependencies to EPEL and other OBS projects. However it doesn't look like OBS attemts to build the specfile. The builds are marked succeeded, but the logs are empty and no packages are generated, except for the ones defined in _aggregate. rpmlint log is also empty.

Building locally goes much better (see logs below), but it still fails. Likely seems due running in an unpriviledged container. Even if there are issues with the build, I would expect OBS to output a build log, when a build is triggered.

Any suggestions to why OBS doesn't seem to attempt to build the spec file here?

TUMBLEWEED Intel i915 framebuffer broken in Kernel 5.12

May 28, 2021, 2:01 am

≫ Next: TUMBLEWEED Reinstall in a multiboot system

≪ Previous: Spec file build not triggered

Hi

Hardware = Lenovo Laptop Z70-80

Code:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 5500 (rev 09)

The problem with kernel 5.12 is that during boot at the point it switches to the framebuffer, my screen starts to shimmer / or wobble as though it's slightly out of sync

This works fine with kernel 5.11-16-default

The only way I've found to get rid of the shimmer in 5.12 is to turn off modesetting

ie in /etc/grub/default

Code:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.modeset=0"

Unfortunately this seriously degrades graphics performance, so you get video tearing

inxi -Gay tells me:

5.12.4-1-default (with the fault, modesetting enabled)

Code:

Graphics:

  OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel HD Graphics 5500 (BDW GT2)

I'm fully up-to-date with all zypper dups just having to use the 5.11-16 kernel

There was as similar (ish) problem fixed with the i915 and kernel 5.12 reported here:

Code:

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1185601

but that doesn't seem to have fixed all the i915 problems

Any thoughts?

≪ Previous: TUMBLEWEED Intel i915 framebuffer broken in Kernel 5.12

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life! :)

I have openSUSE installed alongside Windows 7, Debian Testing and Fedora 34 in an UEFI system with legacy BIOS enabled. Without going into details, I want to reinstall because of some issues. Thing is, I'm not sure how to proceed because I don't see openSUSE in Debian's Grub, Debian's listed in openSUSE's, but Fedora is not, likewise, openSUSE's not in Fedora's while Debian is. Is it because of Fedora and openSUSE both use BTRFS? Windows 7 is in all of them. AFAIK, and as I've done before, I would need to delete a distro's partition from another one using something like partition manager, then update grub and that would be it, but I'm not sure if that's how I should do it this time, because of what I said above, or is it? Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your answers. :)

Hey,

I have gotten a new Fujitsu Lifebook U7411 for testing purposes and want to create a proof of concept regarding the system compatibility. I have been trying to install Leap 15.3 and Tumbleweed here. But after choosing the boot medium USB, I get the following weird message and 3 sec. later, the system turns off.

Instead of GRUB, I get the following console message:

Code:

get_second_stage() failed: Invalid Parameter

Something has gone seriously wrong: shim_init() failed: Invalid Parameter

I have never seen that before with other devices.

I have been trying:

Secure boot - on/off
TPM on/off
Different USB pens
Tumbleweed and 15.3 NET installer image
Tumbleweed and 15.3 DVD installer image
Verified installation media and iso checksum
"dd" to creating the USB pen
openSUSE "imagewriter" to creating the USB pen
Ubuntu and ArchLinux --> can boot from the same USB pen
15.3 DVD installer pen can boot onto another device

Hopefully there exists one more idea/chance. :)

Best and thanks a lot!

prjconf Release + OBS-DCH-RELEASE = 💥; if statement in prjconf not working as expected

≫ Next: LEAP 15.2 Leap 15.2, File Transfer

≪ Previous: LEAP 15.3 USB Installer not working - get_second_stage() failed

In our prjconf we do the classic:

Code:

Release: %%{?release_prefix}.<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>

Now we are building debs and do

Code:

OBS-DCH-RELEASE = 1

in the dsc to get the same effect (`DEBTRANSFORM` was very buggy so we can’t use that until the github issues I created are solved)

The problem now is that w/ the `Release` bit in prjconf is that the debs lose the

Code:

<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>

.

If we take out `Release` bit from prjconf the debs are fine but the RPMs lose the

Code:

release_prefix

To solve this, based on the %{debian} entry in the table at https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bui...ribution_howto we tried this:

Code:







%if !0%{?debian}

Release: %%{?release_prefix}.<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>.cpanel

%endif

That behaved as if %{debian} was not true when it tried to build the debs (i.e. the RPMS were fine but the debs were missing

Code:

<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>

.

Is there a way to have projconf’s `Release:` only apply to RPMs and not apply to debs?

Or is there any other way (besides RPMs in one project and debs in another project, may have to do that but would require a lot of changes to tooling and consumers) to get both RPMs and debs to have release prefix and

Code:

<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>

?

TIA!

LEAP 15.2 fstrim command and LUKS ?

≪ Previous: LEAP 15.2 Leap 15.2, File Transfer

Hi there,
I have to admit, never cared much or read about fstrim and SSDs....

I have / on a LUKS encrypted nvme device. /home/ is on a mechanical hdd.

So I thought the root system / could be used with fstrim.

Now I tried to use fstrim with --dry-run just to see what fstrim would do.

Code:

# fstrim -A -v --dry-run

/mnt/windows: 0 B (dry run) trimmed on /dev/nvme0n1p3

/boot/efi: 0 B (dry run) trimmed on /dev/nvme0n1p1

/boot: 0 B (dry run) trimmed on /dev/nvme0n1p4

As you can see, fstrim does not touch the root file system / it completely skipped /

This makes me wonder, does fstrim automatically skip LUKS devices?
Should LUKS encrypted SSD (nvme in my case) not get trimmed?

One other thing that caught my eyes is, that systemd fstrim.timer is disabled on my system, I never touched fstrim.timer.

How do you handle your LUKS SSDs? Do you trim?

This broke somewhere in the 4.x kernel series. I saw some discussion on it, regarding part being moved to userland with a suggested quirks fix, but that didn't work for me. Here's what's in dmesg:

Is there any way to omit file downloading in PackageKit meson build system? I see, I can disable manual pages, but I not sure it's good. And also, on OBS packages with PackageKit does not disables downloading manual pages.

Maybe can I download files manually and put it somewhere?
I known, I have many questions, but I still learning, how to package software.

I tried something like -Dlocal_checkout=false, but this do not help.
