[opensuse-factory] Open SuSE 10.3 alpha 2
by Donn Washburn 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Hey Group; I have had a problem with some of the latest versions of SuSE after a complete loaded at the reboot time. It seems SuSE has setup Yast2 to need Xwindows already setup. Due to this on atleast two systems with older video cards Yast2 after boot fails to come up. This has happened on a Voodoo3 and Intel 82C8## systems. This cause Yast2 not to get to the part about setting up "root"'s password. Furthermore just <enter> after it fails and dumps you at a login prompt fails. It is set to password - god only knows. Next - I have for year known of a way to break the root password so as to rescue a forgotten or lost password. Knoppix, chroot and something about an "x" in /etc (enough said). However, in these days of security, security, security and security it no longer works. The only way to recover now a days seems to be reload (shades of Redmond). If you know of a better way please email me direct if you desire. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb(a)hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb(a)arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?

JVM do'nt works anymore after the last update seven days ago. I see that the directories in /usr/lib/java are empty, and now are a new redirecting option in /etc/alternatives but it not works, or the problem is with the browser plugin. How can I verify the rigth installation and settings? I have installed java 1.4.2 and 1.5.0. Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
