[opensuse-factory] Yast Printer Module dies on x86_64
by marc.mcswain＠academy.com 23 Oct '06

23 Oct '06

I had seen someone mention this before, but I can't find it now. Since Alpha 5 the Yast Printer module will not allow configuration of a printer. It gets to the point of Checking Database of Printers, and a new window pops up and says that the List of Printers has changed, and then it instantly closes the Printer Module. Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I did not see it when I looked. Marc McSwain --------------------------------------------------------------------- To … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] YAST2 printer module crashing

Trying to re-enable my printer, a HP device usually managed by hplip but currently not working, I noticed that the printer module of YAST2 is crashing while rebuilding the printer database: linux:~ # yast2 printer /sbin/yast2: line 267: 30827 Abgebrochen $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" "$Y2_GEOMETRY" $Y2QT_ARGS The ncurses interface is crashing at this point, too.

[opensuse-factory] Has anybody "smart --gui" running recently?
by Alex 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

I've almost given up hope on getting smart's GUI running for a period of longer than a few days. Usually it works a few days if following the factory builds, and then is broken again. Sometimes you have to delete stuff in /var/lib/smart, but this time even this doesn't help. For two weeks now it's like this: linux:~ # smart --gui Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/smart", line 194, in <module> main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/bin/smart", line 161, in main … [View More]

Hi, reading the discussions on this mailing list about the switch of the YaST2 icon theme and gathering some more information that I was not aware at when I made the decision, I'm suggesting the following plan: * Go back for 10.2 to the crystal icon set for YaST (the crystal icons were used in 10.1 and earlier) * For openSUSE 10.3: - figure out which icons are needed - take care that we have a complete set of tango icons for yast2 (there are still some missing which I didn't know … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] Printing From Java Applications: "No print service found."

Hi, I am unable to print from Java applications. Both jEdit (programmer's editor) and <oXygen/> (XML editor) report "No print service found." when printing is attempted (this is true for both the "Page Setup" and "Print" commands). Eclipse does not enable its Print command. I have configured a remote CUPS printer and can successfully print to that printer from other applications. I could find no tool for configuring a Java print service (I looked in the Java plug-in and JWS / JNLP … [View More]

[opensuse-factory] YOU vs Zen Updater
by Terje J. Hanssen 18 Oct '06

18 Oct '06

Maybe a little OT, but I think neccessary and useful to know for 10.2 as well. I just Configured Online Update with YaST and thereafter ran a larger YaST Online Update for 10.1. For some time the Zen Software Updater has showed 11 software updates (incl. Mozilla Firefox and Evolution). The difference now was that it was possible to install them with Zen after this latest libzypp update. Now I wonder what is the real use difference between YOU and Zen Updater?
