From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

(Solved) Signature-Error when updating OpenSuse Tw (discuss.tchncs.de)

Since this evening I have some problems with my OpenSuse Tumbleweed installation. I'm kind of a noob and everything I tried didn't work out.

When I try to update my system with "zypper dup" I get an error that the signature-check failed and if I still want to proceed:

>Signaturecheck for file "repomd.xml" from repository "repo-oss" failed<

I downloaded the GPG-Key from the OpenSuse Website, deleted and reimported the new key. This didnt help.

When I deleted the key and didnt import a new one the system imported it itself when running zypper dup. Fingerprint was the same as before.

I had the same problem with an other repository but reimporting the key worked for now.

Can someone help me on this? Can this be some kind if temporary problem?

--- Update ---

I tried everthing for 2 hours.

Now the error isn't there anymore and I can update without problems

Sounds like a temporary problem.

Why does this say solved but there's no update?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I think I wasnt clear there. I added the last two sentences when it finally worked on its own again and marked it as solved.

Why would you post a screenshot of a neofetch. Just why

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Because the number one question on literally any Linux related tech question is: "What are your specs?" And a neofetch covers big parts of that.

Pretty normal to give basic informations about the system when asking questions about said system.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

For sure but taking an image of text just itches me, also neofetch includes unneeded stuff and doesnt include infos about a specific package.

I wrote a script called sysinfo but the plasma 6 version is incomplete

Like I said I am kind of new to linux and this was the way I knew to share some basic info. Btw it was fastfetch

Got a better idea to share basic Info? Please share it with me.

I will try to fix my sysinfo script and will update you when it is ready

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oy could you let me know when the plasma 6 version is done? This seems like a great tool.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Yeah I am in the process of just using kinfo and putting additional info (like GPU RAM etc) after and the package search before that.
