[opensuse-factory] Where's real SCSI hiding?
by Felix Miata 27 Jun '07

27 Jun '07

I have one Factory box with 26 partitions on /dev/hda, and 9 partitions on /dev/sda on sym53c8xx. In 10.1 on the same box the latter all mount as traditional /dev/sda* devices. The problem is that there is no /dev/sd*, nor is there anything in /dev/disk/* that refers to these partitions. How does one recover access to SCSI partitions in Factory? -- "Respect everyone."

[opensuse-factory] 10.3Alpha5
by Donn Washburn 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Hey SuSE; So far Alpha 5 has very welcome new feature. That is - during a install the install script request to setup the Network before off loading files.rpms from the DVD. It is good because something is missing from the DVD/CD Yast will go look for it before stating the file is missing. It did miss getting a copy of the latest Release Notes. However, a set of Release Notes did showup after setting up "User" info. First reboot the VGA= information was not supplied based on my original setup. I noted a KDE Updater effort to upgrade the same file that the Setup update did. already update. Problem!! when I went back to a F2 - F6 tty session the LCD just flashes. F7 or F8 fail to return to KDE. Further more the machine is lockup. I have not set the runlevel options yet. This machine is a LapTop HP NC6400/Intel 945 GM/512M memory- SuSE SLED worked correctly. I set it via SaX2 from SuSE's setup 24 bit to 16 bit and so far it is working. -- 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?

[opensuse-factory] http install
by Hans Witvliet 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Hi, Just re-installed a little via-box with 10.2. After booting, i tried to add the option: install=suse.a-domani.nl/10.2, my local install & update server. It looks like during install, IPv6 is not recognized. Neither by name, nor by adres can the installationsource be reached. After (DVD-)installation, i can set my installation-source without any problem to suse.a-domani.nl/10.2 and update.a-domani.nl/10.2, which are ipv6-only websites Is this intentionally, or a possible enhancement ;-) Hans -- pgp-id: 926EBB12 pgp-fingerprint: BE97 1CBF FAC4 236C 4A73 F76E EDFC D032 926E BB12 Registered linux user: 75761 (http://counter.li.org) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Integration of external repositories
by Rafał Miłecki 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Andreas Jaeger mentioned over month ago that openSUSE 10.3 will provide better integration of external repos: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-announce/2007-05/msg00002.html I use openSUSE FACTORY version and can not see any nice method of adding Packman or Guru in YaST. Is any team doing something about this? I think openSUSE needs some easy way of adding 3rd party repositories. -- Rafał Miłecki

[opensuse-factory] Modules.dep file
by Juan Erbes 25 Jun '07

25 Jun '07

Yesterday I update to OSS alpha 5, and got the problem with the grub (Bug 283709), after reinstalling the kernel, it has removed the previous kernel version. After trying to restore the grub with a boot cd from OSS 10.2 beta (I do'nt has any cd of OSS 10.3 alpha), and it replaced the actual kernel 2.6.22 with the 2.6.18, and it do'nt work. How can I create the initrd and the modules.dep files for the kernel 2.6.22 (OSS 10.3 alpha5) without his cd boot? One initrd file was created using the restoring option with a cd of OSS 10.2 beta2, but I do'nt know if it's right. Someone can send me the file modules.dep for an Athlon XP system? Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] C++/g++ compile problem
by Donn Washburn 23 Jun '07

23 Jun '07

Hey Group; SuSE 10.3Alpha4 rpm -q = gcc-4.1.3-46 updated with Yast2 I think I have tracked out a problem with gcc 4.2 and c++. Two different programs that require C++ are dying at the "c++ -V" test. If I try it directly "C++ -V" it states it needs a argument I tried "c++ -V somegarbage". c++ reported a error stating that it could not find i586-suse-linux-gcc-somegarbage. locate find no "i586-suse-linux-gcc-". However, /usr/i586-suse-linux is there. Anyone else seen a problem of this type? -- 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?

[opensuse-factory] Re: [opensuse-ux] Liberation fonts as default

What's wrong with DejaVu? Why has the default desktop to use MS metrics? I see sense for using it in office documents but desktop/application interfaces? Also when people here had a look at this first Liberation version they noticed several broken characters iirc, and if Novell/SUSE would decide to fix them it would have afaik to fork and give it a name according to Liberation license.
