TUMBLEWEED Poor performance in VMware Fusion can be a `search localdomain` issue

Posted by jpluimers on 2016/09/07

I figured this out, it turned out to be a DNS resolution issue. For some reason leaving ‘search localdomain’ in resolv.conf generates some slowness. I’m not sure if it’s because 127.0.0.1 isn’t mapped to ‘localhost.localdomain’ in /etc/hosts by default, or whatever, but taking it out fixes the performance issue.

Need help with OpenSuSE Tumbleweed `cd:/content: Invalid signature. Installation aborted.`

Posted by jpluimers on 2016/09/07

This succeeded: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/overview?distri=opensuse&version=Tumbleweed&build=20160901&groupid=1 installing the image from http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Current.iso.mirrorlist (for which the md5 and sha signatures match).

But I got this cd:/content: Invalid signature. Installation aborted. message:

After a few statements [WayBack] in the install shell:

mkdir /mnt/cd
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cd
cd /mnt/cd
gpg --import content.key
gpt --verify content.asc

Indeed the cd:/content didn’t verify as content.key wasn’t a trusted signature:

How to proceed?

“Yes/No” question with what kind of buttons? Indeed “Yes/Cancel” SourceTree for Windows installer – latest version.

Yes, people still do this: Screenshot 2016-09-07 15.59.24.png

This one is worse than the usual “Yes/No” questions missing one or more of the “Yes” or “No” buttons in that it actually mentions you can click “No”.

Load SSH Key?

Do you have an SSH kkey that you’d like to load now? If not you can click “No” and create one later if you like”.
