[opensuse] Dell Precision workstation + nVidia Quadro FX 4600 + 3007WFP == No Xgl?
I've searched the archives, and can't find any reference to this combination, so that probably explains why it doesn't work, but I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask. Anyway, I have a shiny new Precision 490 workstation with the nVidia Quadro FX 4600 video adapter, and the 3007WFP (30" wide format) panel here. OpenSuSE 10.2 installed and working fine. Installed nVidia drivers, no problem. Set resolution to 2560x1600x24-bit colour, no problem. But, I can't enable Xgl / Desktop effects. :-( When I try, I get: Video card: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 019e (rev ...) 3D Acceleration: Enabled Desktop Effects: Disabled Your graphics card is not supported. Furthermore, your colour depth and/or resolution is not within the allowed range (1024x768 - 1920x1200 resolution, 24-bit color). If you fix this, you may be able to run Xgl. So, two problems. First would be getting the Quadro FX 4600 to be a supported card. Who do I contact about getting it added to the list? I'd be happy to test or try whatever is needed, since I'm assuming the developpers can't own every possible video board out there. Second, is there a way to get Xgl to take higher resolutions? I really don't want to drop down to only 1920x1200 here. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

disable xgl if you can use native nvidia.

forget about that. you don't need xgl. install xorg72 from http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/opensuse/repositories/xorg72/openSUSE_10.... install latest beryl from http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/opensuse/repositories/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_1... and then do it this way: http://en.opensuse.org/Beryl#Beryl_with_nVidia_drivers_-_no_Xgl.2FAIGLX http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=77030

when you removed xgl none of these questions are relevant any more. with native nvidia everything works. -- einen schönen Tag noch, & bitte kein TOFU (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOFU) DI Rainer Klier Abteilung IT - Entwicklung ECOLOG Logistiksysteme GmbH Bauernstraße 11, A-4600 Wels Tel. ++43/7242/66200 Fax ++43/7242/66200-200 mailto:kra@ecolog.at http://www.ecolog.at Fb-Nummer 171431f Landesgericht Wels A member of TGW LOGISTICS GROUP -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Hi all. Pls, help me correctly create OpenSuse 10.2 updates repo on the server for local network. 1. What programs should I use for this? 2. And how to sync it in the future with public updates server? Thanks.

1. Create a rsync cronjob. Something like that: I'm using a user rights to do so. 40 4 * * * rsync -tvrl --exclude=rpm/ppc/ --exclude=rpm/src/ --exclude=rpm/x86_64/ --delete ftp.gwdg.de::pub/suse/update/10.2/ /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ #repo: update As u can see I rsync the files into that local folder /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ 2. Then create a createrepo cronjob. Something like this: 5 5 * * * createrepo /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ #createrepo 3. Add the local folder to Yast. In my case it's /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ You need rsync and createrepo installed. Enjoy NB: - with rsync you can query the all available folders of the particular server. check the rsync man pages. - using webmin will easy the cron handling. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Why is createrepo necessary here? The update directory already has valid repo information. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Right, the the update repo won't even probably work with createrepo. It's so because of the .info files included and needed for patching diffs. Am I right? Thus createrepo will work with any repo but the update one. At least I didn't manage to create those .info files all by myself´ and w/o them I couldn't apply patches. For any other repo, one can use the repodata folders from servers but I found out that there is sometimes a substantial time lag between uploading rpm's and updating repodata folders. Thus I create my own repodata's. Cheers Jan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
