[opensuse-factory] [Factory] Thinkpad T43p - Kernel panic
by Rolf Offermanns 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Hi, during the last 3 days I got multiple kernel panics (frozen KDE4, blinking caps-lock LED). Nothing in /var/log/messages, netconsole not possible because ipw2200 driver does not support polling. Does anybody else experienced this? How can I help track this down?

Re: [opensuse-factory] RealPlayer dropped from openSUSE, why?

If I remember correctly (I once had an IRC chat with someone with Real), the Windows codec licence provider (Microsoft?) requires that the download of every copy is recorded. That happens if you go to the Real / Helixplayer webpage and click "download": You get a unique URL for downloading it. Thus one seemingly cannot put the Real Player a normal FTP player. There might be additionally a per-copy royalty problem, I don't know. In principle, it should be possible to create a package which does not the Windows codecs, but one can also simply drop the package on the openSUSE side and every user can download it (also as RPM) from: https://player.helixcommunity.org/2005/downloads (Using the real.com site is also possible.)

I don't think that's the problem - I have not found the Linux version very intrusive (contrary to the Windows version) and most code of the Real Player is also released under the GPL (except of the core: The codecs, which would arguably most useful under an open source release). I hope that with browsers such as Firefox and Opera supporting HTML5's <video> and <audio>, the OGG/Theora format will get more widely used by content providers; currently one has essentially only the choice between MP3, WMA/WMV, Real, Quicktime or Flash - which have all licence or codec availability problems. Fortunately, at least OGG audio files/streams have already got some market share.

[opensuse-factory] [Factory] Canon IP5200 not working
by Rolf Offermanns 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Hi All, I am not able to get Yast to install a driver for $SUBJ USB printer. It used to work 11.0. It is not autodetected on plug-in and I am not able to install it manually in Yast since no drivers are found and I did not find a button for manual driver selection. Any hints?

[opensuse-factory] bad clock
by Felix Miata 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Can anyone confirm that the time zone offset bug is back again in 2.6.27.4-2 beta 4 & KDE3? I'm in EST, where offset is -0500 currently. Every time I boot, the clock shows a net offset of -1000, even though the local time correctly stored in the BIOS is @ -0500, and /etc/adjtime contains LOCAL on last line. I configured my clock by right click on KDE3 Kicker clock to use "set date & time automatically". It put no uncommented pool servers in /etc/ntp.conf, but even when I add server 0.pool.ntp.org and 1.pool.ntp.org either manually or using YaST2 date/time config the wrong behavior remains. -- "Love is not easily angered.

[opensuse-factory] Crossover - IE kills dualhead
by Christian Boltz 01 Nov '08

01 Nov '08

Hello, I'm not really sure what the correct place to ask this is - but since my system is running on 11.1 beta3, I'm at least not completely off-topic ;-) To sum up my problem: - I use a dual-head setup (laptop display + external monitor) - I have installed Crossover (hey, they gave it away for free ;-) - Inside Crossover, I installed Internet Explorer 6 (unfortunately some sort of must-have if you create websites - at least I must be able to check what IE breaks this time) - to make it secure, Crossover runs as another user I ssh -X into The result: - IE works without problems (or should I say "shows it usual bugs"? ;-) - When I close IE, it changes my X config (!) to only use the laptop display instead of dualhead. I guess this is done via some xrandr call. - for comparison: Running notepad.exe within Crossover doesn't change the X config - after logout / login, I get my dualhead setup back Now my question: - how can I avoid that IE changes my X config when I close it? - is there a better place for my question? - what is the correct call to setup a dualhead environment using xrandr? I tested a bit, but didn't find the correct commandline. Regards, Christian Boltz -- Bei mir setzte Yast eben $LANG auf de_DE@euro.
