[opensuse-factory] Bug in clock application...
by Nathan Moschkin 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

There's a bug in the clock application, I've noticed, for the GNOME system (I like GNOME, KDE doesn't really tickle my fancy) ... at any rate ... it doesn't let me add more than 3 locations ... I want five locations on that screen... So far, I've got Tampa, where I live, then I have London and Chiang Mai Thailand. I want to add Honolulu and Tucson, Arizona... but I can't add any more than 3. Is this a compiled-in limitation? Does anyone else know of this bug? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Why no KDE3 LiveCD?
by Larry Stotler 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

Considering that fact that KDE v4 isn't quite as mature as KDEv3.x, why did the devs decide to make the LiveCDs with just KDE v4? After installing from the live cd and then trying to remove KDE v4 in favor of KDE v3.x, I was hit with way too many dependencies. I know that some of the KDE v4 packages have been incorporated into the KDE v3.x system, but there was no way to remove it. I had asked for CD media, and a KDE v3.x live CD would at least help out in that regard. But having to keep the full KDE v4 isn't something I would want to do on a lower resource system, so the LiveCDs are basically uselss to me. And, since v4.x will probably be in better shape for v11.1, I imagine that there are no plans for a KDE v3.x live CD? This isn't a rant about KDE v4. I just don't care for it, and if the current look is what we will be expecting in the future, I may have to look at other window managers. (not a Gnome fan either) Thanx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

How can I enable hotplugging for my bluetooth headphones (that's #1) ... and #2, how can I get openSUSE to recognize my headphones, when I can actually get that far? (Avec le rire, pour Vincent): /Comment peux je permittre avec le Hot-Plug mes écouteurs dispontifs BlueTooth (#1), et #2, comment que je peux gagner l´OpenSUSE identifier les écouteurs aprés lointain?/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Hello, I usually have my own local ftp archive. But the /pub/suse/distribution/11.0/repo Seems a bit lacking. When will it all be available?

[opensuse-factory] Firefox error...............
by Fred A. Miller 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

I've been working all day, updating systems from 10.3 to 11.0. I must say, that this is the FIRST time I've done a bunch of systems - UPDATE ONLY - and all is well!!! Good job, boys and girls!! However, I have a problem on one of my boxen, and it's NOT the fault of 11.0 really, as I was having problem before with update FireFox errors. However, now it won't come up. I tried to remove it via Yast and get the following. I know I'm tired, but what am I missing?

[opensuse-factory] Can I copy repository list from one box to another?
by Doctor Who 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

I want to use my list of repositories that I've currently got setup on one box to another (so I don't have to do all that typing). What do I need to copy over from one machine to another so that I can use machine #1's list of repos to update machine #2? Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 11.0 installed but not without problems.
by Nathan Moschkin 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

It is not recognizing repositories from the main download site (even though I look myself and the packages are clearly where it said it was looking for them). I ended up downloading rpm's by hand to install extra software that I wanted. ... and rpm tells me that there's some file called /var/lib/gdm/.gvfs that I don't have permission to read or write to ... even though elsewise rpm works. There's a few bugs hanging around here. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Incomplete path breakage in software installation
by Silviu Marin-Caea 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

I'm trying to install additional stuff from the repositories that openSUSE itself defined during installation. This is the error: Download failed: File './noarch/OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-en-20060111-55.1.noarch.rpm' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0/repo/oss' The problem is that between repo/oss and ./noarch there should be a "suse". So was this forgotten somehow? If I open the path in a browser, I can download and install the file manually with rpm. The packman repository does not have this problem, because there is no "suse" intermediary directory. I also tried zypper in the CLI: home:~ # zypper in OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-en-20060111 Reading installed packages... The following NEW package is going to be installed: OpenOffice_org-thesaurus-en Overall download size: 4.0 M. After the operation, additional 20.6 M will beused. Continue?
