OpenSUSE Hardware :: Cash Drawer Only Opens For Root User?
Aug 15, 2011
I am putting together a DIY Point Of Sale (POS) system using openbravo pos as the software and openSUSE 11.4 GNOME as the operating system. I am running into difficulty with the cash drawer. It's a UPOS 2020 USB cash drawer and is fully recognised by openSUSE.
My problem is that after I put in the config into openbravo POS is doesn't work. Out of curiousity I decided to run the program as root, redo the config and it now works fine. how I can have my normal user use the device. It's on /dev/ttyUSB0 btw.

Prelude: OpenSUSE 11.2 (2.6.31.8-0.1-desktop), installed Novell client 2.0 SP2 (novell-client-2.0-sp2-sle11-i586.iso).
I found that if any usual user is logged into a NDS-tree, then _local_ root has full access to user's network shares, including the user's home directory located on remote Netware-server. Is it by design or
have I missed something? Nevertheless in windows local admin has no access to network resources mounted of any other user. If you runas shell (as admin) then admin in principle can't "see" network shares which were mounted (connected) by other users - they are accessible ("visible") per session.

I got the mozilla FF4, extracted, copied to /usr/lib/firefox, changed the old one to /usr/lib/firefox-3 (I had the 3.03 or something like it) Now,I just can make it work... but just as root! If I am in Konqueror, super user, and click over the firefox it opens Firefox 4, as root. If I open another X, as root, I just need to click the old firefox icon and it opens. As user, there is no way I compared the files from /usr/lib/firefox, the new ones with the old ones in /usr/lib/firefox-3, and the permissions are THE SAME. I even tried to replace the firefox and the run-mozilla.sh, the only difference is that then I can get the update window to appear, but it does nothing and just crash. I didn't touched the /usr/bin/firefox, since it just point to the /usr/lib, and in fact, since it is working as root, in user space and in root KDE,it is OK. I tries first,of course, to get a slack one, but at linuxpackages there is only the FF4 for the newest slacks.

I am trying to run a script that automatically opens Nautilus as root for a certain directory.
# cd /home/abby/Desktop
# gedit go2html.sh
cd /var/www/html
su -c "nautilus ./ &"
# chmod u+x go2html.sh
# ./go2html
The script appears to run but the foreground process closes unexpectedly.

Akonadi can't run when log as user root due to mysql protection :
Code:
[akonadiserver] Found mysql_install_db: "/usr/bin/mysql_install_db"
[akonadiserver] Found mysqlcheck: "/usr/bin/mysqlcheck"
[akonadiserver] Database process exited unexpectedly during initial connection!
[akonadiserver] executable: "/usr/sbin/mysqld"
[Code].....
So how to configure Kmail to read and delete local mail sent by other users or by system or apps ?

I cannot see what the problem is here. I have installed MySQL 5.1.36 via YaST on my openSUSE 11.2 (32-bit) system.I can log in as root. I can "create user MY_user identified by 'my_passwd';" and a new user is created. But I cannot log in to the database using that new user name. I keep getting the message:
Code:
> mysql -b -u MY_user -p
Enter password:

I want to run zypper without being asked for the root password. So I added the commands to the sudoers file:
Code:
# User alias specification
User_Alias ADMIN = XXXX #note: this is not real username.
# User privilege specification
root ALL = (ALL) ALL
ADMIN ALL = NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/vpnc ,/usr/sbin/vpnc-disconnect ,/usr/bin/zypper ref ,/usr/bin/zypper up
But I'm still being asked for password. I should note the the vpnc commmand is working as expected.

I would like to allow normal users to run some root scripts (e.g the sound subsytem [alsa]) in cases sound is stuck. What is the best way to allow this to happen in opensuse? There are many ways to do that (and I do not know how to use any of them ) and I am not sure which one is more suse all right.

I've installed BOINC for first time (from suse repos). I'm worried about running BOINC as root. How can this be avoided? I'd first like to exhaust all options with the official opensuse repo version of BOINC. If I am unsuccessful, then I'll try the version from Berkeley website.

So I'm attempting to get my system to not require the root password while still requiring some form of authentication. My current issue is getting yast2 and its components to ask for the user's password and not the root's.
Is there a way to have these tools ask for user's password instead of root's?

I recently got a new external drive and backed all my files up on the new external: movies, music, docs, etc. Now all my files have permission rights to the root only. I was able to change this by open up nautilis from a terminal in root and change the permission on the whole drive to my current user so I can access the files, copy & delete the files. I wanted to change some music file information in Kynamo this morning and was not able to since all the individual files still belong to the root. How can I change this permission issue without having to change each individual file?

this is a strange one. running 11.2 pae 32 bit kernel with all the most recent updates and gnome. This is a fresh install. I built the machine, and then installed all my repositories and software, and used the machine for about 2 days, and now when I log in it hangs on logging into gnome. it's strange because the wireless notification about available wireless networks is in the top left corner of the screen, and nothing else happens. I can log in as root.I also had this issue before I formatted the machine (that's why I formatted)

Although I can perfectly mount any usb device (stick or disc) as being root, as a user I am not allowed to perform any such action! I have modified the corresponding fstab entry to look like:
Code: usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto,user 0 0 and I have also made sure that the user is a member of the disk group, but without any luck. My system is OpenSuSE 11.2 (with KDE 4.4, but the problem is the same regardless I am attempting to mount the usb device via the GUI or through the text (c/k)onsole).

I've got a somewhat anemic box, resource-wise, set up in the office where any authorized user plus a guest account can log on. Guest is tightly restricted, but we get a lot of people passing through who need one-time or occasional access - this isn't the big problem. What's causing me problems is that a user will log in, walk away or go to the john and the screen locks. Next user (or this one comes back) and winds up doing another login. At the end of a week or so, I may have a couple of dozen sessions listed when I ask for "users". Since some of these session contain open applications they eat up an awful lot of a marginal amount of available memory. How do I kill the entire session (as root) for a user? Gotta be simple but it's not obvious to me.

there is a way to mount, encrypted partitions as a normal user and not as root so that i may copy files into it using the file manager itself? even in the case of normal partitions other than /home, i can't seem add any data in them. the mount points i used are seperate directories within the /home partition?? also, is there a way to create partitions in such a way that it can be accessed, just as how windows partitions are accessed in linux?

I came across this issue today and it changes everything I know about file permissions in linux. I created the following files in my system :
Code:
/tmp> ls -lad /tmp/testperm/
drwx------ 2 sagi users 4096 Apr 12 20:23 /tmp/testperm/
/tmp> ls -lad /tmp/testperm/file.txt
-rw------- 1 sagi users 12 Apr 12 20:23 /tmp/testperm/file.txt
[code]....
One more thing, as you can see I also set that only the owner of the directory (which is me again) can read and cd (the execute bit) to the directory. how come user 'root' can read the content of the file ?
Code:
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
# cat /tmp/testperm/file.txt
Hello world
[code]....
