(there are others too). Yeah, that is my thinking too, but so far it has not worked. I'm not intimately familiar with how those aliases work, am I right I thinking I need to match those against the information in these?: find /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/ -name modalias I am not sure, but I think the issue might be that the BMC that ipmi_si wants to talk to is not sat on the PCI bus, but on the SMbus. </pre> Per Jessen 2013-06-18T06:10:34 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.suse.general/338241 <pre>Hello: I see there are plenty of messages on this list related to systemd, and systemd related issues. For me this fact indicates that systemd is not matured and stable enough to be included in a RELEASE as default and standard. To include a question too, I thought that post 12.1 openSUSE versions come with systemd and do not offer sysvinit as an alternative. Still I read here that some users are using or trying to use sysvinit on openSUSE 12.3. So, do openSUSE 12.2 and 12.3 offer sysvinit package(s) similarly to 12.1 which can be exchanged for systemd? Thanks, Istvan </pre> Istvan Gabor 2013-06-17T15:57:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.suse.general/338223 <pre>I'm starting a fresh thread following some comments I posted recently in http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2013-05/msg00791.html I don't want to keep hijacking that as my own issue isn't strictly related. I'm trying to resolve long-running radeon issues (a laptop with a Mobility Radeon 9700, based off the 9600, RV350), going back to around the introduction of KMS in openSUSE 11.3 (i.e. years ago). On fresh installs of all openSUSE versions since then, things run fine for maybe a few days, then I get an issue where the screen momentarily blanks and comes back but everything's frozen. Occasionally other weird artefacts like the whole display gradually changing to rainbow vertical lines occurs. Only a Magic Keys reboot can get me out. Effectively, after it has crashed the first time, subsequent reboots usually result in the same happening again much sooner, as though there's some corruption in memory somewhere.

I have some OSS machines that use Samba for AD integration. Whenever Samba is updated, libwinbind* all get updated. Prior to OSS 12.3, I could just restart services that used files that had been updated and everything was good. Now, however, systemd appears to use libwinbind* and I have no idea how to get systemd to use the new libwind. I cannot figure out how to restart systemd without a system reboot. Any help is appreciated. </pre> Moby 2013-06-16T00:20:06 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.suse.general/338094 <pre>Hi, look at this: Is systemd calling "/usr/sbin/spamd $SPAMD_ARGS -r /var/run/spamd.pid" without expanding "$SPAMD_ARGS"? I edit the line, replacing the contents: #ExecStart=/usr/sbin/spamd $SPAMD_ARGS -r /var/run/spamd.pid ExecStart=/usr/sbin/spamd -d -c --max-children=6 -r /var/run/spamd.pid Then restart the service: So indeed, the variable was not expanded, because me editing it works.

OK, it's called target now but YAST shows an empty dropdown list in the expert-view of the service manager where one used to chose the default runlevel.

Then I installed postgresql 9.2.4. The pg service starts with default config. As default it has only 24 MB shared_buffers. I need it way higher like 4 or even 8 GB. As soon I change those 24 MB to something higher PG won't start anymore. I had the same issue back with openSUSE 12.1 and it was solved when I switched from systemd back to sysvinit. How can I get more memory for PG on openSUSE 12.3 ?
