Re: [suse-kde] KOffice-1.2.1

07 Apr '03

Using SuSE 8.0 with KDE3.0.5 and just upgraded KOffice using the rpm from KDE and run /sbin/SuSEconfig. However now none of the progs run and when run from console most show the same = relocation error : /opt/kde/lib/libkofficecore.so.2: undefined symbol static_QUType_varptr. Updated libart_lgpl to 2.3.10-92 but that hasnt helped. Still a relative newbie so help or directions would be much appreciated Jim MacLeod

kernel
by Hal Keene 06 Apr '03

06 Apr '03

I have down-loaded three kernel update files. In which order do I install them. The three are 1)kernel-source-2.4.19.SuSE-115.nosrc.rpm at 10.7 MB, 2) kernel-source 2.4.19 SuSE-115.i86.patch.rpm at 5.56 MB, And 3) kernel source.rpm at 32.9 MB. I plan to burn these to a CD and do the upgrade through YaST. Possible? Can anyone sorta give me an ABC on doing this? The kernel I have on my system that came with SuSE 8.1 is 2.4.19-4GB. I would upgrade through "YOU" but I do not have an internet connection yet. I am told this original version has problems with multiple IDE and raid devices. Thanks in advance, Hal Keene

Cut off in Kinternet
by Bill Wisse 05 Apr '03

05 Apr '03

Hi All I don't know if this is standard but my kinternet cuts off after a couple of minutes of no traffic. Is there a possibility somewhere to change this to a different time set or even to <no cut off> at all? Thanks -- Greetings from /bill still at 169 west , 19 south. My holy cow is a penguin.

By the way -f install was going to upgrade 6, remove 6, add ->new 13, of which libart-lgpl was one of the new. You could do it the old fashion way and just pull it down via ftp. :) ftp://ftp.gwdg.de:0/pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE… I can be found here. I think you might have to do an apt-get update to right your db files because the above directory on gwdg.de is where apt would be looking for this pkg. Of course I don't have funktronis in my sources file so I don't know what that provides. I'd go get the files manually.. should work fine then. Of course the devel pkg for this is in the dev directory...if your inclined to install that. -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org Tell me what you believe..

Re:[suse-kde] Dial-up settings
by Jim MacLeod 04 Apr '03

04 Apr '03

Apologies if I'm going over an old (though I'm a newbie) problem but it's become a real pain. Download speeds using Konqueror on a dial-up connection have never been better than 300b/sec whereas using Win98 (sorry) I can expect at least 2.5k/sec unless things are really busy. Trying to do a Yast update of 5.8Mb I gave up after 2.5 hours and I hadn't even got the first package downloaded. I hate to admit that I've used 98 to download most of the files for KDE3.1!! Changed mtu and mru in ppp/options file settings to 276 (believe these to be appropriate for dial-up) but when I connect it gets reset to 1500. Any help in tweaking settings so that I can get reasonable dowloads would be much appreciated. Thanks (and apologies again if I'm raising an old topic) Jim MacLeod

kinternet
by ovidiu pascui 04 Apr '03

04 Apr '03

Hi I installed SuSE 8.2 Pro with KDE3.1.1 . I have a modem (elsa fun serial) to connect to the internet; during the instalation the modem was detected and I could configure my providers and even do a first update. After rebooting when I start to dial using kinternet a bubble appears around the icon and this is it!Using wvdial I can connect without problems to internet, so I think is not a configuration problem of the providers. Could somebody help, or give me a clue?

Again: Xfree86 4.3.0 with font problems
by Tim Ruehsen 04 Apr '03

04 Apr '03

Hi, I tried out some things to get fonts working again. One of it has been updating to freetype2-2.1.4rc2 and rebuilding all font caches. Now I can see some of the fonts that where invisible before. But some (especially Fixed Fonts) are now invisible. I have SuSE 8.1, XFree86-4.3.0-17, KDE3.1.1-33. Does anyone have a 'working' combination with XFree86 and KDE 3.1.1 ? What software versions do you have. Can you display www.winehq.org (I can not see the normal text here at the moment, no matter which freetype2 version). Please help me out. Regards, Tim Ruehsen
