[opensuse-factory] NTP Daemon not working,

Hi, I just encounter some problems with setting up the NTP daemon in Opensuse 10.3 I got the following errors while starting the daemon: >alf2:/etc # ntpd -d -D7 -4 >ntpd 4.2.4p3(a)1.1502-o Mon Aug 6 17:51:31 UTC 2007 (1) >adding new filegen >adding new filegen >adding new filegen >adding new filegen >adding new filegen >adding new filegen >addto_syslog: set_process_priority: Leave priority alone: priority_done is <2> >addto_syslog: precision = 2.000 usec >create_sockets(123) >addto_syslog: ntp_io: estimated max descriptors: 1024, initial socket boundary: 16 >setsockopt SO_TIMESTAMP enabled on fd 16 address 0.0.0.0 >bind() fd 16, family 2, port 123, addr 0.0.0.0, flags=0x89 >flags for fd 16: 0x802 >Searching for addr 0.0.0.0 in list of addresses - NOT FOUND >Added addr 0.0.0.0 to list of addresses >addto_syslog: Listening on interface #0 wildcard, 0.0.0.0#123 Disabled >addto_syslog: socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) failed on address ::: Permission denied >addto_syslog: unexpected error code 13 (not >PROTONOSUPPORT|AFNOSUPPORT|FPNOSUPPORT) - exiting My /etc/ntp.conf just contains those 2 lines which are not a comment >server 127.127.1.0 # local clock (LCL) >fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 # LCL is unsynchronized Is it a bug? Or do I make a mistake here? On a SuSE 10.0 I didnt had any problem set up the NTP daemon. Thank you all in advance for your hints! :) Best Regards Andreas Hoffmann --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

In case you don't have any update repository configured on your openSUSE 10.3 Beta2 installation, just add http://download.openSUSE.org/update/10.3/ or download the sax2 packages directly from that URL.

[opensuse-factory] Beta1 on VMWare requesting host clock rate change
by Vahis 24 Aug '07

24 Aug '07

VMWare server 1.0.3 build-44356 running on 10.2 host,10.3 beta1 as quest. Unfortunately I haven't installed any alphas this time so I don't know if this came with beta1 or before. Running Beta1 fills /var/log/messages on host with the following: kernel: /dev/vmmon[3561]: host clock rate change request 306 -> 348 The numbers change, the lines come every ten seconds. -- Vahis --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 10.3 Beta-1 on low-end machines?
by richard (MQ) 23 Aug '07

23 Aug '07

Earlier versions of SuSE / OpenSuSE ran (albeit slowly) on low-end machines - YaST installation detecting the lack of RAM and requesting swap before continuing. Tried 10.3 Beta-1 (KDE single CD) on one such (Pentium-1, 133 MHz, 80 M RAM, 2G HDD with swap already prepared - runs OSL 10.0 at present). Install (standard and 'safe settings' tried) aborts with a kernel panic 'out of memory' shortly after 'moving into tmpfs', no attempt to ask for swap. Is this expected / intended behaviour? - in which case it might be nice to warn potential users! Very little on the wiki about minimum spec... -- Cheers Richard (MQ) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] First opinions on a T60... suite
by James PEARSON 23 Aug '07

23 Aug '07

Hello again When I boot 10.3 b2, openSUSE Updater runs and after alot of hd activity the "openSUSE Updater window" pops up and sayes... Error building the cache database SQL logic error or missing database Disabling Repostory 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:10.3/standard' because of the above error ... This is most likely a bug because when I run openSUSE Updater and select "Add/Remove Update Sources" I see that 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:10.3/standard' is not enabled. Note : When I select Configure I can see "Backend : ZYpp Backend " In the end I selected the option "don't refresh on startup" or something like that and openSUSE Updater no longer appears in the Main Panel but I would like to know if there are any work arounds or alternative solutions/rpm that I can play with in order to get openSUSE Updater working better ? Question: What is the best (or recommanded or offical) in a beta sort of way of keeping up to date with the lastest factory rpms? Options are smart, yast2 with extra internet sources, zypper or ? please comment on which best applies here in a factory context. I ask because I normally use smart and add urls like this: smart channel --add "Packman 3rd Party Package Repository" type=rpm-md \ baseurl=http://packman.inode.at/suse/10.3 TIA Regards James --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Alpha 7 and others
by Donn Washburn 23 Aug '07

23 Aug '07

Hey Group; Console Yast2 and the Software Update process appears to not clear the previous /var/lib/zypp data. This was the cause of this system not finding anything new except about 10 old entries and finally a error message. I removed all of the data found in /var/lib/zypp. Leaving non DB data. Brought up Yast2 and it found hundreds of new files showing the installed versions and the one that could be updated. This took about 30 minutes - OK! I then selected various files to update (like open Office - I give up). At some point Yast2 selection check went out and states "Solving" in a GUI text box. Somehow I have become curious if it is working. There is no sign of anything. No spinning hour glass or progress bar. "top" seems to imply it is however, it has been about 1 to 2 hour and no change. A action bar would be nice. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb(a)hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb(a)arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
