[opensuse-factory] OpenSuSE 11.4 M5
Hey Group; openSuSE fixed two problems that I have recently reported . 1. Amarok no longer needs 'strace -o amarok.err amarok --debug" to start correctly. It now works correctly. 2. Tvtime is now working correctly. I think this was a fix to Yast2>Hardware/TV However, Blender and gpm(nor does gpm -m /dev/input/mice -t still don't work. And from some reason the Install program fail and locked up this machine during the night. I tried the cd NET load again and it worked but it did mention that the some files are missing. It also forgot to setup /usr/bin/Xorg as 4755. Which bring me to there is no /var/log/xorg.* in /var/log as reported by the Xorg error which shows up if /usr/bin/Xorg is 755 -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@comcast.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

The gpm problem has been found permissions on /dev/input/mice is to restrictive to work. And also ps ax shows tvtime is still running even thou it is off.
ps ax | grep tvtime 8761 ? D 0:00 /usr/bin/tvtime and it can't be killed

you need to read the man pages.

It means "Dead" but the problem is that it cannot be removed with killall or kill -9 and the only way to solve it is reboot. Kind of a Non Unix/linux type of problem. Question is - is it a tvtime problem. KDE4 or somewhere else. I was just letting folks know if they have a problem on the second start of tvtime it will error out and fail without a reboot. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@comcast.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

No, status 'D' doesn't mean Dead, it means "uninterruptible sleep". Normally, a process in state D is waiting inside the kernel for something to happen Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Any waiting process, unless it is busy waiting, waits inside the kernel. The difference is between interruptible and uninterruptible sleep. If you are sleeping uninterruptably, signals will be delayed until the task is awoken for other reasons. An interruptible sleep will be broken for signal delivery.
