Hello, I installed opensuse 10.2, 32 bit OS in my laptop. I'm not able to connect it to the wifi network. Windows vista is detecting my wifi card as AR5007EG and is working fine. I don't have much knowledge about the OS, i just followed the instruction given in one of the forum: 1) Installed ndiswrapper that came with the dvd using yast 2) Installed the windows xp ar5007eg driver using the following commands: ndiswrapper -i net5211.inf // no error detected modprobe ndiswrapper // does not return any message iwconfig // displayed the following: lo no wirless detected Also configured the network devices in the yast. just done the following: Found no device in the network manager. Added the device type: wireless Configuration name: wifi0 Module name: ndiswrapper and configured to start at boot. no other changes. After done the following rebooted the PC, but of no use. "iwconfig" is returning the same message: lo no wireless detected I've attaced the forum page is referred for your reference. For your information, i've not even tried connecting to the network using ethernet. Please help me in solving the issue. Thanks in advance. regards, madhan. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-amd64] 64-bit Java
by Constantine 'Gus' Fantanas 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

Hello all. I am thinking about switching to 64-bit Firefox and use nspluginwrapper. (SuSE ships with 32-bit Firefox to ensure compatibility with binary-only 32-bit plugins, such as Flashplayer.) Perusing the SuSE repositories, I don't see any 64-bit Java plugin but googling around I see that many got their 64-bit Firefox working. I am not sure what they did about the Java plugin. Furthermore, I switched to the 64-bit OpenOffice; I installed it as rpm from the SuSE repositories. If I need to keep 32-bit and 64-bit Java environments, will that confuse OpenOffice when it is told to look for a Java environment? Thank you in advance for your time. c.f. -- Running 64-bit Linux on AMD64 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-amd64] 32bit qt libraries vs. 64bit qt libraries for Skype?
by Joerg von Frantzius 13 Aug '07

13 Aug '07

Hi, I've got a 64bit 10.2 system here and I'd like to run Skype on it. From what I have learned, I somehow need to install the 32bit versions of the qt libraries, as Skype comes as 32bit only. Currently I have the 64bit QT4 libraries installed. So my questions would be: 1. How to trick Yast or Smart or anything else into installing the 32bit qt libraries next to the existing 64bit ones? When I just try installing them using Smart, it gives me all kinds of conflict messages 2. Will I need to do anything special to make Skype "see" the 32bit versions of the libraries? Thanks for any hints, Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-amd64] RE: [opensuse] Re: upgrading Apache (Suse 10.0) help.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you for your instructions. This worked perfectly on our 32 bit server, but somehow apache won't start on our 64 bit box. We get an error of; # rcapache2 start Starting httpd2 (prefork) httpd2-prefork: Syntax error on line 116 of /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 24 of /etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/loadmodule.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib64/apache2/mod_jk.so into server: /usr/lib64/apache2/mod_jk.so: undefined symbol: apr_sockaddr_port_get The command line was: /usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork -f /etc/apache2/httpd.conf -DSSL failed Any ideas on how to fix this? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After poking around a bit more, I see that mod_jk_ap20 (tomcat5) is for Apache 2.0. Is there a repository for Tomcat and a mod_jk module for Apache 2.2?

( you may need to upgrade more stuff depending what other software in your system uses libapr* ) and no, you will not break virtual host configuration as it is backward compatible. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you for your instructions.

[opensuse-amd64] Changed support for pppoatm in Suse 10.2?
by Jogchum Reitsma 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Following the instructions on http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/suse/index.html to connect a friend's system with a revision 2 usb-modem, the result is that the presented bootscript #!/bin/bash modprobe pppoatm count=0 while [[ $((count++)) -lt 40 ]] do if dmesg | grep 'ADSL line is up' then pppd call speedtch exit 0 fi sleep 1 done echo "The SpeedTouch firmware did not load" fails because pppoatm.ko is not present. The only ppp*.ko files present at the system are /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/pppoe.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/pppox.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_async.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_deflate.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_generic.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_mppe.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_synctty.ko (the kernel mentioned here is from my own x86_64 system, which has undergone several updates from the suse-server and hence slightly newer than the system from my friend's system, which is a fresh install) Also there is no /proc/bus/usb directory, but I don't think that's a problem; usb-disks etc are seen correctly. Has the pppoatm support changed since e.g. 10.0? And if so, can you advice me about how to configure it, or where to find valid instructions? Thanks for your advice! regards, Jogchum --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help(a)opensuse.org

RE: [opensuse-amd64] Apache SSL not working after adding IP and p ort to listen.conf
by James D. Parra 13 Jul '07

There is no way for an IP address to be 258 you can't use anything higher than 255 and that is reserved for broadcasting. You might want to recheck your address. Each octect has a range from 0-255. Hope that is of help. SrA Dominick A. Obermeyer Okinawa, Japan ~~~ I feel so embarrassed. You're right that is the wrong address. Thank you for pointing out the obvious. I could make excuses, but what's the point. Thank you for your illuminating response.

[opensuse-amd64] Apache SSL not working after adding IP and port to listen.conf
by James D. Parra 13 Jul '07

13 Jul '07

Hello, I added a new ssl vhosts entry, using a template from a working ssl vhost and modified it appropriately or so I thought since the other ssl vhosts that are on the system are working correctly, however when I reload rcapache2 I get the following error; >From .../apache2/error_log; [error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Cannot resolve host name 10.50.40.258 --- ignoring! ~~~~ When I add the IP to listen.conf and attempt to reload, apache fails to load with the following error: <snip> rcapache2 reload; ... [crit] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: alloc_listener: failed to set up sockaddr for 10.50.40.258 Syntax error on line 25 of /etc/apache2/listen.conf: Listen setup failed The command line was: /usr/sbin/httpd2-prefork -f /etc/apache2/httpd.conf -DSSL unused <snip> This is a portion of listen.conf. <snip> Listen 80 <IfDefine SSL> <IfDefine !NOSSL> <IfModule mod_ssl.c> #Listen 443 Listen 10.50.40.258:443 <------Line 25 looks okay to me Listen 10.50.40.252:443 Listen 10.50.40.254:443 </IfModule> </IfDefine> </IfDefine> <snip> ~~~~~~ When I remove or comment out line 25, apache starts. Any ideas what is going wrong? I have two ssl sites that work fine on the same box.
