[opensuse-factory] How to get rid of underline in konsole, xterm, etc.?
by Sid Boyce 23 May '08

23 May '08

Can't say what caused it to suddenly happen, under KDE3 using konsole, xterm or gnome-terminal, the characters are underlined. This causes password failures using su or sudo. I can get into root using ssh from other boxes. I would like to know if there are any escape sequences that can be used to reset it. Checked through desktop config, but could find nothing.

[opensuse-factory] Remember password
by Vahis 23 May '08

23 May '08

I wonder if there's a way to get rid of the ticked option "Remember password" Every time YaST GUI is launched? It's really annoying me to have to remember to untick it every time. -- Vahis --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] eclipse crashes with sun jdk
by Putrycz, Erik 23 May '08

23 May '08

Unless I set eclipse to run with IBM's JDK then it crashes within minutes. I get either the gnome crash dialog or otherwise I find a jdk dump... I believe someone mentioned this may have something to do with xulrunner but out of the box, eclipse doesn't work.

[opensuse-factory] New approach, or test?
by Oddball 23 May '08

23 May '08

Hi, Kick-off contains links to many YaST2 mobules since version '19.1'. They are found in the apps tab, under new apps. Is this going to stay this way, as new configuration approach for new users, or is it timed to go away after a while? (when they are not new anymore?) I must say that it looks very open, not hidden behind a wrench anynore. Besides that it looks faster, to directly enter the module one needs. Room enough in kick-off anyway.... And a complete YaST also still exists so only gain.. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)

[opensuse-factory] Does PolicyKit-kde really require kdebase4-runtime < 4.0.60 ?
by Kevin Valko 23 May '08

23 May '08

Just tried to update from factory, and PolicyKit-kde is throwing up a mess of dependency errors, due to me using KDE4/UNSTABLE. The current version 0.0.svn786716-11 installed fine, but now 0.0.svn786716-14 has dependencies for kdebase4-runtime >= 4.0.4 and <= 4.0.60, which conflicts with KDE4/UNSTABLE. Anyone know if this is a packaging error that I can ignore, or is there a real incompatibility with KDE 4.1? Any assistance appreciated...

[opensuse-factory] Beta3 in vmware, no screen resize, and no mouse release
by Sunny 23 May '08

23 May '08

Hi, I installed 11.0 Beta 3 (32 bit) as guest in vmware virtual machine. Everything went OK. After the installation, in SOftware management it suggested to install vmware-kpm-pae package, which contains various vmware modules. After restart, it used vmnet for the network card (as expected). X is using the vmware driver as well. The problem is, that it does not resize the screen when I change from normal to "QuickSwitch" or FullScreen mode, as it does if I install vmware tools from vmware (I did not try on beta3, but thats how it worked on 10.3 and other guests). Also, X by default uses the standard mouse.ko module, but not vmmouse.ko, which prevents the "auto-release" functionality, i.e. I need to hit Ctrl-Alt in order to release the mouse pointer from the vm. Changing the mouse driver in xorg.conf to vmmouse solved this problem. Does anyone knows how to enable the auto-resize feature, and how to make the clipboard work between the host and the vm?

by Andreas van dem Helge 23 May '08

23 May '08

Installed 11.0 beta 3, kde, 64-bit and then ran then updater. When I did that I rebooted and not it says "file not found" right after selecting to boot SuSE. FWIW normally after a kernel upgrade it will show both the new and old kernel version in the list but not in this case I only have "openSUSE 11.0," "Windows," and "OpenSuSE 11.0 Failsafe" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
