Since I’ve upgraded to Leap 15 I’m greeted by this message on boot:

I haven’t those on Leap 42.3 (or any other Linux distro I’ve tried for that matter). No idea what can I do to fix it and have temp reading on the 2nd cpu working correctly.
Initially I thought it may be a borked update from 42.3 to 15. As I had other issues (some messed up configs and locales) I did a clean install - and sadly the issue remains.
Prior to doing clean install I’ve even experienced a hard crash:

- and I’ve noticed with sensors package installed powering off taken like forever.
It may seem trivial - but actually for my use case monitoring temps is important. I do quite a bit of 3d rendering and it is good idea to check cpus for overheating.
Any suggestions how to fix it are greatly appreciated.
It may help if you post your CPU model - does it really have 16 cores?
This was just fixed see bug 1097021. You need to install the obs kernel.
Thank you! Will it be populated through regular channels at some time (so I could just zypper up / dup)? Or does it require some procedure (adding repo etc - couldn’t find this info with a net search)?
@brunomcl: Yes, it does - it is dual Xeon E5 2670 workstation I use for rendering. At one time you could get those for like 40 bucks which was a stunning deal (if I remember correctly it was when FB was doing a massive hardware update and 2nd hand market got flooded with those).
Just add repository: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-15.0/standard/
Be sure to add the associated files (kernel-devel , default-devel, micros) besides the kernel as needed
But will those commits be included in one of the “official” patches? And how often obs kernel gets an update?
I’m asking as currently I have an nvidia driver installed “the hard way” (the one in the repos has been giving me issues a while back) and I’m a bit worried I’ll have to reinstall it too often (unless something changed and kernel update no longer requires reinstalling nvidia).
I don’t know when the changes will make it to update. I am using the nvidia repo rpms with no problems you might want to give it a try again
