[opensuse-factory] New NTP feature: rcntp addserver
by Silviu Marin-Caea 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

To add a NTP server I should run rcntp addserver ntp.somedomain.com Anything else? Because this alone does not work, no server is added to /etc/ntp.conf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Beta-5 PPC Boot media
by Richard (MQ) 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Finally got images for PPC with matching MD5 sums, and now I'm confused about booting. As suggested in various places, openSUSE-11.1-Beta5-NET-ppc.iso won't boot on my G3 iMac. Nor will openSUSE-11.1-Beta5.1-NET-ppc.iso - this was more of a surprise. I checked the hardware with the 11.0 version, that boots fine but install dies with the expected message about a locked storage subsystem. I saw the extra directory "11.1B5_PPC_Hotfix" but (a) is this relevant to my platform (neither Pegasos nor Efika) and (b) if so, how do I use teh files? I was so happy when I saw the image files and this is so frustrating... Alternatively, is there a way of using the 11.0 boot media, maybe by modbprobe-ing the relevant driver module? PS - Beta5 looks generally good on i586, though I see the same problems reported elsewhere -- 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] Proper way to install ATI drivers? 11.1 b5
by John Lange 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

I've just installed OpenSUSE 11.1 b5 and I want to test it with the proprietary ATI drivers in 3D compiz mode to see how things work. This is the first time I've run a beta version. In the past I've always either compiled the rpms from the ATI installer or done the one-click install (as per the instructions here http://en.opensuse.org/ATI). Neither of those techniques appear to be viable in this case and so I'm wondering what the "official" method would be?

[opensuse-factory] General Q - What is the purpose of a desktop folder?
by David C. Rankin 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Listmates, In KDE 4, I have this "Desktop Folder" in the middle of my desktop. Before I nuke it, I wanted to understand what its purpose was to make sure I'm not getting rid of something useful. So what purpose does this thing server? Is it safe to kill it or is it one of those things that is required like the old "Program Manager" group in win 3.1? -- David C.

[opensuse-factory] Compiz RPMS in XGL and Compiz have ABI Version Mismatch
by David C. Rankin 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Developers, There looks like there is a small problem with the rpms in both the X11:/Compiz/openSUSE_Factory/ and X11:/XGL/openSUSE_Factory/ repositories. I have removed completely and reinstalled completely from each repository and get the same failure from each set of rpms (I suspect they are the exact same, but I didn't check) The error is: 03:20 arete~> compiz (core) - Error: Plugin 'core' has ABI version '30080902', expected ABI version '20080828'. compiz (ccp) - Error: InitObject failed compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't activate plugin 'ccp' It looks like there is a simple typo where a '3' was put where a '2' should be.

[opensuse-factory] Compiz - App Switcher thumbnails stuck on screen & start menu disappears
by David C. Rankin 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

J, Another two small issues with compiz that may be related to the black-screen issues. Both are shown in the following screenshot: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_11.1/compiz-appswitch-stuck.jpg First, the application-switcher (alt+tab) thumbnails remain on-screen after the application switcher closes. Second, for some reason it causes the start menu (green lizard head) icon to disappear. I don't even have a guess why, but you can see both issues in the screenshot. (that was before I closed ksnapshot ;-) Again, no bug report and no post to the compiz list. -- David C.

No, its a Centrino-Notebook, therefore it has an intel-3945-ABG wlan- card. This is nearly a standard today and 11.1B5 does recognize it correctly.

[opensuse-factory] damn, BETA5 did screw up grub for my 11.0 install
by David C. Rankin 17 Nov '08

17 Nov '08

List, I was retiring from a good weekend of Beta 5 evaluation to get ready for work tomorrow and I went to reboot the Beta 5 machine to bring up my normal 11.0 install and I got that damb grub error 17 again. Somehow the 11.1 install borked grub and now 11.0 won't boot. So this doesn't get confusing, the 11.1 install has the hostname "arete" and the 11.0 install had/(hopefully has) the hostname "ecstasy". I use separate hostnames on separate install to keep from having to redo ~/.ssh/known_hosts for ssh use. The grub menu.lst on 11.1 is: # Modified by YaST2.

I don't have much experience with this dual monitor things, but about a couple of days I had to give an exposition and a program of KDE named 'KRandRTray' (I think is a front end) let me change resolutions between monitors, you should try it, it is great. -- Xavier Callejas --- Open Your Mind, Use Open Source. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] konqueror4 no longer able to click to right of filename to focus file?
by David C. Rankin 17 Nov '08

17 Nov '08

Listmates, Is this a bug or a regressive feature. In konqueror, I rely on the ability to click to the right of the file name in detailed view to place the focus on a file without launching or executing the file. In knoqueror4, no matter how careful you are, if you click anywhere to the right of the filename, even right up to the "size" column, the file is activated. What is going on with that? -- David C.

[opensuse-factory] System-tray icon corruption in KDE4.1
by Atri Bhattcharya 17 Nov '08

17 Nov '08

Hi! Is the problem with the system-tray icons being garbled in KDE 4.1 expected to persist through the final release of 11.1? I believe this is an upstream problem, but with the new system-tray (already a part of Beta5 that has now added the feature for hiding icons) one would have expected them to be gone. That however is not the case yet. It really spoils the appearance of the (otherwise nice) KDE 4.1 desktop. -- Atri -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Annoying "qt-subapplication" window pops up?
by David C. Rankin 17 Nov '08

17 Nov '08

Listmates, There is this annoying little "qt-subapplication" window that pops up ever few minutes and prevents the kicker panel from hiding until it is killed. The little window has black text on a dark back background and if you click the bottom a network configuration dialog appears. You have to right-click on the kicker icon and choose close to kill it.
