I finally got around to ordering a ASUS MB, 3700 cpu, and 1gb mem. to upgrade one of my systems. I have 9.1 and was wondering if there are any pitfalls to watch out for during the first install. TIA Henry

Re: [suse-amd64] HPOJ Scanner does not work

Hi, I did all that but it does not work reliable. If I execute scanimage -L direct after reboot I get scanning to work. But then I can not print. After a reboot I can print but not scan. Doing a ptal-init setup again recognizes the printer but scanimage -L does not work, it seems to hang!? (it does not finisch and I have to stop it with ctrl-c) Any further suggestions? BTW, I used this all-in-one device on SuSe 9.0 32bit without problems. Raimund Am Dienstag, 1.

cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libjpeg.la'

Hi, I'm compile kmymoney on SuSE 9.2 x86_64, but get this error : /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link --tag=CXX g++ -O2 -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fexceptions -lxml2 -lz -lpthread -lm -o kmymoney2 -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -L/usr/lib/qt3/lib64 -L/opt/kde3/lib -L/usr/lib64 kmymoney2.all_cpp.o ./views/libviews.a ./converter/libconverter.a ./dialogs/libdialogs.a ./widgets/libwidgets.a ./mymoney/storage/libstorage.a ./mymoney/libmymoney.a -lkhtml -lkdeui -lkdecore -lqt-mt -lpng -lz -lm -lXext -lX11 -lresolv -lSM -lICE -lpthread -lresolv libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libjpeg.la' As you guessed, libjpeg.la is in /usr/lib64... The strange thing is that -L/usr/lib64 is in the arguments ! My configure command is : ./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt3 --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib/qt3/lib64 --prefix=/opt/kde3 --enable-final --enable-libsuffix=64 --with-extra-libs=/usr/lib64 Is there anything I can do before I make a bad and ugly symlink in /usr/lib?? Regards Charles

You can use bcm4306 with ndiswrapper, there is a 64 bit driver for that Wireless network card, I personally get it from http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/drivers.php I'm using it with ndiswrapper on my Acer 1513 lmi. Have Fun!! Josep Maria Macip >>> Alvaro Aguilera <alvaro.aguilera(a)gmail.com> 05/03/2005 21:35 >>> Hello, I downloaded the dvd image of S. 9.2 from the ftp site, and I installed it on and AMD64 computer. This computer has a network wireless card with chip bcm4306, that is not supported and I cannot run ndiswrapper on 64bits. There is no 64bits driver available for Windows so driverloader doesn´t work neither. How can I install with this dvd the 32bits version of Suse? And thus get the ndiswrapper working... if there is no other better solution non involving extra money.

Well, Which config would you like to know? >I have a compaq laptop, with amd64 and a broadcom wireless adapter and have been >having trouble. I have a Compaq as well. I bought the R3000 with the AMD64 3200+. It does have the Broadcom chipset for my wireless. I have the Nvidia 64 mb Geforce 440 Go video card with a 1680x1050 dpi screen. I downloaded the Nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia.com. The SUSE Nvidia drivers have worked for me on a couple of other Nvidia cards that I've installed on other machines. I just wanted to get the latest/greatest driver for myself. I'm running 64 bit SUSE solely on this machine. The only issue that I had was: 1. Configuring my wireless card with NDiswrapper. (Trial and Error, Goofing around with encryption and router config) 2. Firefox crashing. Visiting a java website before the updates. 3. Have not figured a way to get my two up/down volume buttons to work on the side? Other than that. Everything has been running solid since I've had this for 2 months now. JD

64bit CD Install: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
by Mark A. Garcia 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

Currently, I am attempting to install SUSE 9.2 64bit on a Dual Opteron 250 Sun v20z 8GB ram. I do not have a dvd-rom drive to boot from. I have an external dvd-rom attached via USB. But the bios is not capable of booting off the dvd-rom, only a floppy usb drive. So, I have opt'd to use the mini-install iso. When I boot off the CD I created, I get the menu for selecting "Installation", "Boot from Hard Disk", etc... and I have the F7 option as "64bit". I choose text-mode install. When I go forward with "Installation" I get a Kernel panic. Keep in mind, I chose text-mode install because I wasn't able to see anything while the system froze. --- BEGIN --- [...] Code: 0f 0b 9c 2f 36 80 ff ff ff ff 6b 00 48 89 e9 48 b8 ff ff ff RIP <ffffffff8012150b>{__change_page_attr+875} RSP <00000100fba81e78> <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! --- END --- Having googled this issue I came across a similar encounter regarding the Kernel panic (though not during an install) and it was attributed to a system that had 8GB memory and a bios related bug: http://www.x86-64.org/lists/discuss/msg05864.html What caught my attention was the use of a boot option "mem=4000M" to get past the bug and have a working SUSE install. This seemed errily similar to what I would have to do in the older linux days of get past the initial installer crashes by setting the amount of memory to be less than what was physically there. I tried the "mem=4000M" and viola, I am able to get past the kernel panic point and can do a real install. I haven't completed the install yet, but I will find it interesting to see if I have to set "mem=4000M" to boot a successfully installed SUSE 9.2 from the hard disk. So, my question to the list is, can this be attributed to a bug in the SUSE installer or should I investigate with Sun as a potential memory bios bug? I will report back later to see how well the install went, and whether I had to use the mem option going forward. Cheers, -.mag
