[opensuse-factory] Version of FireFox in 11.0
by Dominique Leuenberger 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

Hi everybody, I was wondering if we ship 11.0 with FireFox 3.0beta5 at the end or if there will be an update to the RC release beforehand? I know it's rather late, but I thought FF was somehow in the position to be pushed.

[opensuse-factory] 11RC1 - no sound
by Basil Chupin 01 Jun '08

01 Jun '08

Just installed RC1 and do not have sound. Audigy4 card which worked perfectly under Beta3 but now, suddenly, no sound even though the card is recognised. Am I the only one with this hassle, please? Ciao. -- Vulgar language is the linguistic crutch of inarticulate brain-dead. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi again Larry > Yeah, I was thrilled when they annouced they were adding PPC support > back in the early stages of 10.0's testing. I've tried YDL, but it > didn't install right(would use my Adaptec card and drive for the > install, but then wouldn't boot for lack of the module.....weird). This sort of thing seems to be a common issue with YDL though I've not tried a recent release. > What model is yours? Blue & White? Cause that's New World and easier > to install.

It's a Blue and White G3 'new world' from late '99, 450MHz PPC cpu. I got a pair of 256M PC100 memory sticks on ebay and now it has 512M, that helps a lot. >> I have some pages on my personal site that I was thinking of putting on the >> OSL wiki, but I couldn't see anywhere obvious to add them? Maybe a link at >> http://en.opensuse.org/Hardware to an entry at >> http://en.opensuse.org/HOWTOs#Architecture_.26_Platforms ? Added as http://en.opensuse.org/Installation_on_G3_iMac_%28ppc%29 - needs some tidying up as so far it's not much more than a cut 'n' paste from my personal pages... > Couldn't hurt.

Hopefully, it will be more usable with a G3/400. The max > RAM limit of 128 isn't good though. Oh well. G3/450 is great with 512M RAM. I managed to install 10.2 (I think it was) on a Toshiba laptop with 144M RAM and a P100 CPU, but it was very painful. The key is to create a swap file in advance and manually activate it ASAP. I may try again with 11.0 on that machine which now has Damn Small Linux on it (and fairly usable too). I'm off now to test 11.0 RC1, as the download has finally completed... -- Cheers Richard. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] problem with reach of factory repo
by Tamas Sarga 31 May '08

31 May '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, It seems I can't reach the factory repo. I installed b3 two weeks ago. I haven't got the kernel update, and how I can recall absolutely no updates from factory. Packman repo give updates. I can't even install from factory repo, I have to download the rpm with a browser and install it by hand. If I start a check for updates with updater applet, it shows an error. If I start yum, and choose update if newer available, then nothing shows up. In addition I can't add more repos, I tried kde:backport, it also shows no reach error. By a browser I can reach the repos, so it's not a simple network error. How could I examine the problem? TIA.

[opensuse-factory] AIGLX
by Francis Giannaros 30 May '08

30 May '08

Users tend to ask about AIGLX quite a bit. Why do we not have this enabled by default, where possible? Xgl is nice and a lot of people prefer it (including myself), but a lot of people prefer using AIGLX too. Having it enabled by default where possible of course also provides the possibility of switching between compiz/kwin/metacity easier too. If not setting it up by default, perhaps we could consider having a script similar to gnome-xgl-switch for setting it up a little more easily for users. Any thoughts?

[opensuse-factory] Powerbook G3 & RC1
by Larry Stotler 30 May '08

30 May '08

Reposting because the attachement wasn't compressed. Fixed now. --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Larry Stotler <larrystotler(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, May 30, 2008 at 2:13 PM I've noticed a couple of things with the Beta/RCs that I probably should have posted before. They are not really bad, but they are different from my i386 install. 1. There are no green and black graphics on the graphical install. It's always grey. Not a big deal, and it probably is faster without them. 2. The new IDE-SATA driver that sets my IDE drive as sda in my thinkpad doesn't work on the Powerbook. So, it's still hda and hdc on the Powerbook for the hard drive and CD-ROM. 3. My Dlink 690TXD card(rtl8189) wasn't detected by the installer nor is it listed in lspci. There is an onboard 10Mbps BMAC controller, and it worked fine. The DLink card was detected just fine under the Thinkpad. Well, the update failed. I tried to see what packages were to be installed(it had added Aparmour.....which was set to taboo under Beta3......) and YaST crashed: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'zypp::Exception' what(): Cannot open file /etc/zypp/locks YaST got a signal 6 at YCP file /mounts/mp_0002/usr/share/YaST2/clients/packages_proposal.ycp:37 /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.call: line 480: 2229 Aborted (core dumped) $OPT_FBITERM y2base "$Y2_MODULE_NAME" $Y2_Mode_FLAGS $Y2_Module_ARGS $Y2_MODE $Y2_UI_ARGS *** An error occurred during the installation. I had selected the Pages option and then just selected Accept. I clicked on the agreements to agfa-fonts, flashplayer, java(both), and then ok for the additional packages. After that YaST crashed. I didn't change any of ther package options. The attachment includes all the files from the install's /var/log/YaST2 directory.

Re: [opensuse-factory] Powerbook G3 & RC1
by Larry Stotler 30 May '08

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the initrd and linux32 files on the DVD don't work. When I uncompressed them in MacOS with stuffit expander, both files extracted the same initrd file. I had to run Olaf's extract_inst32.sh script on the inst32 file to get files that would work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
