I wasn't what you can call happy when i found out this little software
was removed from factory (and even less so when after reopening it 3 or
4 time the bug was marked as private). No real explanation given.
This was by far the easiest and quickest way to get the Nvidia driver up
and running and i demand explanation. WONTFIX, build it in the BS. WTF!
there is no use to the package if its not right on the cd ...
Now if you don't wanna include it in the default selection this is
totally understandable, but why totally rip the package off ?

We cannot change tools developed outside of the opeSUSE community.
But we do want to unify the wording for tools we develop like YaST,
zypper, opensuse-updater, etc.

Boards that use the Intel P965 chipset have another chip for PATA
support since no IDE support is included on the P965 chipset. On the
P5BD (and some other boards), this chip is a Jmicron chip.
If the Jmicron (there's a separate setting for the ICH8) is set to
"AHCI" in the BIOS, CD1 will be recognized (if it is in a typical IDE
CDROM drive on the PATA port), and the installation will start. However,
it will soon be unable to find the CD it was reading from a moment
before, and ask you to insert CD1 repeatedly.
The fix is to back up to the menu choice that allows loading IDE drivers
and load the pata_jmicron driver. Once that's done the installation will
proceed normally.
HTH someone...

Hi,
I have several volumes displayed on my desktop. But when I'm trying to
access one, I'm getting a dialog box saying:
Cannot mount volume.
Error org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy.
Details say:
hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000
This is on an Itanium workstation (IA-64 architecture) running up-to-date
openSUSE Factory. Is this a (known) bug or are they corrective actions I can
try?
I don't know if it's related but I can see an error message at boot time
about udevd not being able to lookup the disk group.
Cheers,
Émeric
Trying to start a Cad system, results in the following error message on
10.1 as a first installation attempt:
error while loading shared libraries: libdpstk.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
As far as I know this be located as /usr/X11R6/lib/libdpstk.so.1
Where can I find libdpstk.so.1 for 10.1 and 10.2, i386 and x86_64?
And shouldn't this X11 library be part of the standard openSUSE
installation?
Rgds,
Terje J. Hanssen

In KDE Control Center, screensaver is disabled, and display power
control is enabled to standby at 60 minutes. Yet, every few minutes with
no screen activity, the display goes blank. This occurs whether or not I
comment away Option "DPMS" in xorg.conf. Where's the bug, or what
additional setting is keeping KDE from being obeyed?

I just booted in order to update to the latest factory ftp tree. I
opened YaST to check and see which installation source was set, because
I already found out that my usual mirror is out of sync.
Couldn't do it. zypp-updater was running and preventing access to the
DB. So, I killed zypp-updater and tried again. Now Yast is stuck
downloading God only know what files, when all I wanted to know was what
installation source was set.
Simply ludicrous software management system.

How to change the size of a partition, fi /home?
Partitions can only resized if not mounted...
@volker:
we seem to be part of the competition, since we are sold, but that
doesn't matter..
The partitioners we have are inferior, you have to admit that.
In this time, it is possible, to graphicly resize, move, delete or
create partitions, and the real changes are made in between shut down
and start-up.
Why shouldn't this be possible for linux?
Why should we, in this time, stil calculate, by hand, for half an hour,
or an hour, to get it right, with all the risks to loose the data you do
not want to loose?
