Hi Mike the answer is : recompile with -fPIC put this option (-fPIC) in every Makefile of this project as a CFLAG . In german you find the docu http://www.pseudonym.org/schauen.html, than look for mjpeg on this page.

Playing DVDs on AMD64 system
by larry_prikockis＠natureserve.org 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Has anyone managed to get any DVD playing software running properly under SuSE 9 for the AMD64? I've got an ASUS K8V Deluxe MB and an NVIDIA GF5200FX video card, for what that's worth. I've been trying, with little success, to compile a working version of the 'Ogle' DVD player, but am running into all sorts of dependency issues with RPMs, and missing library issues compiling from source. If someone else has gotten this working, I'd be interested in hearing exactly what RPMs/source files you used and what steps you followed. Thanks in advance ----------------------------------------- Real programmers confuse Christmas and Halloween because DEC 25 = OCT 31

32-bit drivers?
by robin damion 25 Nov '04

25 Nov '04

This is probably a silly question but, since I'm rather a newbie in most areas involved, I feel entitled to ask a few silly questions... In the absense (as far as I'm aware) of a 64-bit driver for my graphics card (Radeon X800 Pro), can I use a 32-bit driver? Robin. --------------------------------- ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Hello, we are getting error messages using our server process on Suse 9.1: >> kernel: afpsrv: 32bit quotactl not supported on 64 bit kernel Does somebody now if the quota 32 bit API cannot be mapped into 64 bit or is it just a missing translation. Helmut Tschemernjak

Sound problems after last kernel update
by Thomas Peuss 07 Nov '04

07 Nov '04

Hello list! After the update to kernel 2.6.5-7.111 (SuSE 9.1 Professional) I have problems with my sound hardware. After a reboot the soundcard is not accessible. When I remove the soundcard in YaST and readd it it works like before. There is no error in dmesg or /var/log/messages. The sound-hardware is 0000:00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce3 Audio (rev a2) Subsystem: Holco Enterprise Co, Ltd/Shuttle Computer: Unknown device a550 Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 3 I/O ports at d400 I/O ports at d800 [size=128] Memory at e8001000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2 Driver: snd_intel8x0 Any hint?

apache / php sessions.
by Roy F. Cabaniss 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

On my production boxes I am still running apache 1.3 / php and postgresql with no problems. I decided to start working with my amd-64 and have had grief. Using SuSE 9.1 it only has apache 2 on the dvd. (To put apache 1.3 on the box I reckon I would have to compile). Ok, I had a brief fling with 2 some time ago so it should be no problem. Get apache going and then the pages which used to work fine I now see the following: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: session_start() in /usr/share/php/includes/config.osca.inc on line 2 Fire up phpinfo and I don't even see sessions enabled anywhere. Did I miss something or were sessions disabled in what suse shipped? And if disabled, how can I enable (bet its recompile) --- Dr. Roy F.

map_user_kiobuf on 2.4.21-241 x86_64
by skumar 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

Hi Andi, I mapped /dev/raw/raw1 to /dev/hda2 and wrote this simple problem, which hangs immediately, Is this also because of zero filled pages ? Just need a confirmation. I would really appreciate if you could pass me the bug no and access to bugzilla.suse.com. #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> static char large_buffer[1024 * 1024]; void main () { int fd; fd = open ("/dev/raw/raw1", O_WRONLY); if (fd < 1 ) perror("failed to open him\n"); if (write(fd,large_buffer, sizeof(large_buffer))) printf("wrote something \n"); } Thx, Satish

NIS Client OK?
by Lennart Börjeson 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

I'm having trouble configuring my amd64 boxes as NIS Clients. The ypbind daemon can't connect to the server. x86 boxes on the same network can. All are running SuSE 9.1, in appropriate x86 and amd64 versions of course. I'm baffled. I've tried running ypbind -debug, but all it says is repeated "yp ping" of the NIS servers, which seemingly don't respond. As I said, only my amd64 boxes have this problem. Are there any known issues with NIS and amd64? I've tried following various troubleshooting guides I found on the 'net, but I'm no NIS expert and I might of course have overlooked something obvious. Any hints, please? /Lennart -- !++ ! Lennart Börjeson ! Partner, Developer ! Cinnober Financial Technology AB ! Industrigatan 2A ! S-112 46 STOCKHOLM !

new install on AMD64 x86 with "slight" X-windows problem
by ozymandias＠pt-cruiser.net 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Ok, so I finally got all the bits and pieces I wanted for my 64 bit box together and have run into a slight problem. My 19" Monitor is capable of displaying 1280x1024, but only @ 75Hz. Yast seemed to detect the correct frequency range while I was installing, but when X/KDE started up my monitor reported that they sync rate was out of range. I switched to a terminal and logged in then ran YAST in text mode, but seem to be unable to change the refresh rates reported that are probed. How can I change the default refresh rate that X/KDE uses? I amsume that there is a config file I can edit while logged into a terminal, but after (a very short) google attempt I could not locate an answer. thanks Lance

What is an equiv. nVidia card for the ATI 9000?
by Tom Emerson 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

well, after seeing several posts to the effect that ATI doesn't have 64 bit drivers while nvidia does, it seems it is time to switch alliances ;) I currently have an ATI 9000 ["powered by" rather than "built by"], and I'm wondering what the closest rough equivalent is in the nvidia line -- an unusually helpful Fry's guy tells me it would be about the same as a 5500 series card [seems he plays games too... :) ] Depending on brand, the cost seems to range from $90 to $150. They had one [returned] 5700 "LE" board for about $10 more, and then everything jumps to the 6800 series at $300 or $400 [with the higher price going for twice the memory at 1ghz memory speed vs. 700mhz] Since I've just upgraded to a 64 bit system, I'm a little hesitant to dump another $400 into this [kind of makes the overall cost of my upgrade sound less fantastic, since this will push it into the $1600+ range] I'd really like to stick with ATI, but if the drivers aren't there, well, it gets to be time to move on... :(
