http://localhost doesn't work
by steve 01 Apr '02

01 Apr '02

Hi everyone SuSE 7.3 with Apache and PHP4 When I type e.g. http://localhost/index.html.en, the browser asks me if I want to save or open the file. If I choose open it gives me a listing of the file rather than displaying it. Konqueror gives: 'could not create view for application/x-html. The diagnostics is:' and then a blank. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks, Steve.

RE: [SLE] apt-get for SuSE
by Mark Doucette 01 Apr '02

01 Apr '02

Actually I've just gone through the whole ximian scenario and I removed all of them..especially because the Mozilla.ximian was acting like crap. After removing them I removed the 'ximian' objective from the sources.list and did an apt-get install evolution again...it works due to the fact that there is a 1.0.3 rpm for it in the 'gnome' folder on the ftp which actually leads to the suse ftp. All is good now and no ximianized crap either. HTH On Sun, 2002-03-31 at 19:39, Glen Goldsmith wrote: > Well, hrm, don't know how to make it ignore the current dependency > situation.

SuSE7.3 boot process hangs at "Starting lpd"
by Juan Rayas 01 Apr '02

01 Apr '02

Hello, After installing version 7.3, I was finally able to get my USB OfficeJet printer to work (by reading the docs in /usr/share/doc/packages/hp-officeJet/). Once I had the printer working the way I wanted it to, I rebooted the system. Now the boot process hangs at the following message: Starting lpd At this point, the only thing that I can do is CTL-ALT-DEL. Can anyone offer any help? Thanks.
