install fails with "/dev/ram2: unknown fs type"
by Rene Salmon 17 Apr '05

17 Apr '05

Hi list, I have a strange problem. I have an IBM e325 server with two opteron chips on it. We installed SUSE 9.1 on this machine with out any problems and it works great. We just purchased SLES 9 and now we are trying to install SLES 9 on the machine but the install fails. The machine boots and starts the install and gets to the point where it start to load the RAM disk with this message on the screen. "Loading data into Ram disk 57950 KB" Then on the console I see this message Loading image "/var/adm/mount/boot/root" /dev/ram2: unknown fs type mount: /dev/ram2: no such device and right after this I get put on the "Main Menu" of the install program and can not continue from here. Any ideas why Suse 9.1 installs with no problems but SLES 9 does not? We are really happy with SuSe 9.1 but we have to switch to SLES 9 in order to get support from IBM. Thank you for any help on this. Rene

[Announce] 9.2 AMD64 Install CD with New Kernel
by Andreas Jaeger 23 Mar '05

23 Mar '05

I'm currently uploading to ftp.suse.com (will soon be also on its mirrors) at: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/PatchCD The ISO is called: SuSE-9.2-PatchCD-1-RC3-CD1.iso If you have experienced installation problems with our 9.2 DVD, then download this CD and boot from it. It will ask you then for "CD1", and just insert the DVD at that point. During installation it will load packages from CD1 several times... This PatchCD has two advantages: * Installation with a new kernel. If you had problems installing with the DVD, please try it this way. * All the updated packages are installed directly. You can also download the CD and start "PatchCD" in YaST to only install the updated packages. Note the packages and the kernel are from before Christmas, so we have some more updates out since then... Hope this helps, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj(a)suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Hi Mike the answer is : recompile with -fPIC put this option (-fPIC) in every Makefile of this project as a CFLAG . In german you find the docu http://www.pseudonym.org/schauen.html, than look for mjpeg on this page.

SCSI Problem on Tyan S2882 Motherboard
by A N Saravanaraj 17 Mar '05

17 Mar '05

Hello Everybody, I have been running SuSe 9.1 pro (installed all latest updates) for AMD64 on my S2882 motherboard with two opteron processors for a long time (8-months) without any major problem. The system hard drive is an ide drive. I have a promise sx6000 external raid array attached to the on-board SCSI on chanel A and a VXA2 tape drive on chanel B. Last thursday night the machine ran into trouble with the scsi part. The scsi devices were not accessible and the kernel put out the following in the messages file. Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: scsi0: At time of recovery, card was not paused Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dump Card State Begins <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: scsi0: Dumping Card State at program address 0x11 Mode 0x33 Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: Card was paused Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: HS_MAILBOX[0x0] INTCTL[0x80]:(SWTMINTMASK) SEQINTSTAT[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: SAVED_MODE[0x11] DFFSTAT[0x33]:(CURRFIFO_NONE|FIFO0FREE|FIFO1FREE) Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: SCSISIGI[0x0]:(P_DATAOUT) SCSIPHASE[0x0] SCSIBUS[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: LASTPHASE[0x1]:(P_DATAOUT|P_BUSFREE) SCSISEQ0[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: SCSISEQ1[0x12]:(ENAUTOATNP|ENRSELI) SEQCTL0[0x0] SEQINTCTL[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: SEQ_FLAGS[0xc0]:(NO_CDB_SENT|NOT_IDENTIFIED) SEQ_FLAGS2[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: SSTAT0[0x0] SSTAT1[0x8]:(BUSFREE) SSTAT2[0x0] SSTAT3[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: PERRDIAG[0x0] SIMODE1[0xa4]:(ENSCSIPERR|ENSCSIRST|ENSELTIMO) Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: LQISTAT0[0x0] LQISTAT1[0x0] LQISTAT2[0x0] LQOSTAT0[0x0] Feb 26 04:08:35 raid1lac kernel: LQOSTAT1[0x0] LQOSTAT2[0x0] .................. .............. ........ The system works fine after I reboot the computer and the raid array. I am not sure wether the scsi card is going bad or is it the raid array going bad. Could anybody tell me what is exactly happening here or how I should go about figuring our what has went bad. Thank You -Raj

9.2 & Asus A8V-E deluxe install
by Carl Zeilon 28 Feb '05

28 Feb '05

I'm trying to install 9.2 x86_64 into my new machine. It's configured with a single SATA drive & the BIOS is set to treat it as an IDE drive. I also have a NV6600GT PCI express video card. I'm attempting a network FTP install. The install always hangs just as YAST is activated. I see the floppy drive light come on for a moment, the system speaker beeps once, & then blank screen. The virtual consoles (ctl/alt/F1-F6) work & show the YAST started message. Ctl/alt/del reboots the machine as well so the machine is not hung, just the installation. I've tried the 32 bit as well with the exact same result. Knoppix runs OK with the hard drive mounted properly and all, so I don't think it's an issue with the hard drive configuration or my Samsung LCD. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

nvidia driver?
by David Lazanja 28 Feb '05

28 Feb '05

Cheers, I have an NVidia GeForceFX 5200 / 256MB AGP card. It's identified as NVidia 0x0322 (nv) by Yast->Graphics Card and Monitor (sax2). I'm using SuSE 9.2. The open source driver, nv, works great. I downloaded and installed the nvidia driver with YOU. It works but there is one problem. It will not use the 1280x1024 native resolution of my 17" flat panel. When I tried to reconfigure the card, it allowed me to select the 1280x1024 resolution (and all lower resolutions were chosen as well). However, when I restart the X server I can only get 1280x960. This of course doesn't look so hot and a flat panel that natively does 1280x1024. The nv driver correctly uses the 1280x1024 res. Instead of configuring with sax2, I also tried to use the original xorg.conf file for the nv driver and replace "nv" by "nvidia". That still didn't correct the resolution problem. I wanted to know if anybody else had a similar situation with nvidia and if there's a simple quick fix. Thanks David -- # Department of Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics # Columbia University

PearPC
by Edwin Heath 28 Feb '05

28 Feb '05

Hi all, Anyone out there tried using PearPC? I would like to be able to compile 32 bit binaries for it on my 9.2 AMD64 box, I tried all sorts of combinations but the best I could get was a segfault :( using: espresso:/home/eheath/Downloads/pearpc-0.3.1 # CFLAGS=-m32 espresso:/home/eheath/Downloads/pearpc-0.3.1 # export CFLAGS espresso:/home/eheath/Downloads/pearpc-0.3.1 # echo $CFLAGS -m32 espresso:/home/eheath/Downloads/pearpc-0.3.1 # linux32 ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib --enable-cpu=jitc_x86 --enable-ui=sdl make make install It runs pretty well if I copy a 32 bit binary from a 32 bit box but I'm having issues with networking and want to try a few different builds from CVS. Any pointers would be much appreciated. Cheers Ed

32 bit libavc on 64 bit SuSE?
by Alex Angerhofer 28 Feb '05

28 Feb '05

Hi List, I am trying to get mainactor to behave on on my SuSE 9.2 64 bit system. The only missing link I have is now libavc1394. It is installed per default in its 64 bit form. Mainactor is a 32 bit application and will need to have access to the 32 bit form of libavc. My question is this: If I pull the rpm from the 32 bit SuSE version and install it on top of my system, will it work? Will other things break? Best regards, Alex.

Yast2 online update differs from command line online_update?
by Miroslav Ruda 28 Feb '05

28 Feb '05

Hello, I was checking command line online_update tool and I have found that list of proposed updates is different from list proposed by yast2. Using online_update -dsV |grep "^I" I have got pretty long (~50lines) list of installable patches, including several on security level, for example: I iptables (Security): IP Paketfilter-Administration However, when I use Yast2 and online update tool there, after last update I see only four optional patches (wireless drivers). For example, for iptables I see version 1.2.11-4.2 and I'm not able to find version 1.2.11-4.3 proposed by online_update tool. On the other hand, command line online_update propose also to install fetchmsttfonts.sh (Optional): Download Microsoft(r) TrueType Core Fonts which I just installed using yast2! I'm using Suse 9.2 (x86_64), updated from 9.1 using ftp edition. Both tools are using the same ftp server, online_update reports: Types of patches to be installed: security recommended patchlevel Server URL: ftp://mirrors.mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de//pub/linux/suse/suse Server Name: User-Defined Location Directory File: Path 0: ./i386/update/9.2/patches Any idea? -- Mirek Ruda

ACPI and ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
by Torsten Foertsch 27 Feb '05

Hi, I have got 9.2 running on a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe board. Everything works fine but /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature reports ALWAYS: temperature: 40 C My hardware vendor says that cannot be correct. Is there a way to get the correct value? Do other owners of that board also see this behaviour? Thanks, Torsten

Did your installation automatically configure this, did you have to manually load the thermal module, or have I just missed a section in Yast? I'll investigate the thermal_zone over the weekend and report back. I notice that CPU throttling works nicely, so I'd be amazed if the temperature really is a constant 40 C.

Problem with Obex over Bluetooth
by Detlef Grittner 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

I have installed a 32bit and a 64bit (AMD) Version of SuSE 9.2 on different machines. On both I have a working bluetooth connection. But if I send calendar entries as .vcs file to the 32bit machine a dialog pops up on KDE and asks me where to save the .vcs file. On the 64bit machine I don't get this dialog, although the sending devices tells me the file has been transferred. My problem is, that I can't find the file on the 64bit system. Where has it gone?

Playing DVDs on AMD64 system
by larry_prikockis＠natureserve.org 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Has anyone managed to get any DVD playing software running properly under SuSE 9 for the AMD64? I've got an ASUS K8V Deluxe MB and an NVIDIA GF5200FX video card, for what that's worth. I've been trying, with little success, to compile a working version of the 'Ogle' DVD player, but am running into all sorts of dependency issues with RPMs, and missing library issues compiling from source. If someone else has gotten this working, I'd be interested in hearing exactly what RPMs/source files you used and what steps you followed. Thanks in advance ----------------------------------------- Real programmers confuse Christmas and Halloween because DEC 25 = OCT 31

Giant honking great big .x.err file in /root
by jerry bookter 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Hi folks-- I've been noticing my system acting funny lately. Last night apps started closing themselves, requiring a reboot. Sometimes cntrl-al-del won't work; after closing down X the same debug information flashes past on the screen endlessly, as if the machine can't quite manage shutting down all processes. Reach for the reset button..... However the system comes back up and functions fine for a while. Tonight VMware started complaining it was out of disk space, though I have about 70Gb allocated to / and should be nowhere near out of room on the drive. So I poked around and lo & behold I found a file named .x.err that was 33.6Gb(!) Obviously I've got something seriously wrong with X... I just freed up about 13Gb in / by moving some stuff over to one of my FAT32 partitions, but I'm afraid to even try to open this huge file. Is it safe to delete it, then wait a day or so to open it when it recreates itself? Then I can post what it says and work on getting X fixed. I'm tempted to just reinstall from the ground up, but I hate to have to go through all the tweaking and configuring of my setup again. So, is it safe to delete this file? TIA.....!

Empty Files appearing all over file system
by Joel Wiramu Pauling 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

I first noticed this a day or so after install of suse 9.2 amd64, and now 2 months down the track I have noticed the same thing happening all over my filesystem. It only occurs on my 64bit workstation, my 32bit laptop is fine. What it is is an empty file with the name simply '2' appearing this appears in home directorys, / /vol and a seemingly random assortment of places... Deleting the offending file removes it but it comes back after a while... I've tried looking through logs etc and stat on the files they always have one of the systems users creation uid and group. But are created at seeminly random times. Anyone know what service/program thing that may be causing this behaviour?

hotplug SATA drives
by Rene Salmon 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi list, Can some one point me to a how to or have any experience doing this? I added a new hotplugable drive to our SATA disk array. The disk array assigned the disk a new LUN. The LUN assigned to new drive is LUN 1. So as far as hardware is concerned everything is working fine with the hot-plug. Now on the Linux server I need Linux to rescan the SCSI bus and pick up this new device so here is what I did, /root# echo "scsi-qlascan" > /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1 This got the qla2xxx device driver to scan the SCSI bus for new LUN/drives. Here is the syslog message for this. Feb 22 14:02:41 kernel: qla2300 0000:03:03.0: Scheduling rescan for new luns.. Also if I cat the /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1 i see that the qla2xxx driver did detect the new LUN LUN 1. /root# cat /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1 SCSI LUN Information: (Id:Lun) * - indicates lun is not registered with the OS. ( 0: 0): Total reqs 4015, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0, 0:0:00 00 ( 0: 1): Total reqs 0, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0*, 0:0:00 00 Now I do not know what the next step is. How to I get Linux to assign a /dev/sdXXX to this new LUN? Any ideas? Thank you for any help on this. Rene
