10.3: kernel panic after online update
by Rudolf Schuh 23 Nov '07

23 Nov '07

Hi, since update from 10.2 to 10.3 I have got a lot of trouble. A view days ago after an online update my external usb disk did not work anymore. The only solution I found was do install 10.3 anew. After that anything worked without problems until the next update to new kernel 2.6.22.12-0.1 -586. After that update I've got the following message during boot: EIP (<f0a60f35>) sony_pic_irq+0xfa/0x15a (sony_laptop) SS:ESP 0068:efc85ea0 Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exeption in interupt that was it. The only way to start the laptop again was with Failsafe and to go back to the original kernel from the dvd.

[10.3] Dell Latitude D830: Ctrl-F5++ not working in KDE
by Martin Schröder 22 Nov '07

22 Nov '07

Hi, my shiny new Dell Latitude shows a curious problem: Although I have configured 12 workspaces in KDE, I can only switch to the first four with Ctrl+F<n>; Ctrl-F5 and higher are ignored. The functions keys work: Crl-Alt-F7 does the usual thing. I'm currently using "XkbModel" "latitude". Any idea how to fix this?

MySQL und JDBC mit OpenOffice, 3D-Grafik
by Siegfried Heim 18 Nov '07

18 Nov '07

Hallo Liste, Habe openSuse 10.3 auf meinem Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pa1510 installiert (Neuinstallation in root-Partition auf der vorher 10.2 war, die home-Partition und eine Krypto-Partition wurden nicht formatiert, um die Inhalte zu erhalten). Fast alles funktionierte "out-of-the-box" bzw. war mit wenigen Anpassungs-Handgriffen erledigt (ati-Grafiktreiber, wlan, bluetooth, rfcomm, verschlüsselte Partitionen). Bleiben 2 Probleme, wo ich keine Ahnung habe, was los ist: 1. Die meisten 3-D-Programme und Spiele (Google Earth, Second Life, Tuxracer, Tuxracer, AlephOne, BilliardGL ...) laufen problemlos. Einige andere lassen sich nicht starten oder brechen an bestimmten Stellen vor dem eigentlichen Spielbeginn ab - z.B. meldet FlightGear nach dem Laden des Flugzeugmodells einen "Speicherzugriffsfehler" und stürzt ab. Das Ati-Catalyst-Controlcenter startet zwar ohne Fehlermeldung, es erscheint jedoch nicht auf dem Bildschirm. Die Ati-Treiberversion ist 8.42.3-2.1 aus dem Ati-repository. 2. Ich betreibe einen MySQL-Server mit einer (über den MySQL-Administrator problemlos ansprechbaren) kleinen Datenbank. Eine dazu passende Formular und Reportoberfläche existiert als OpenOffice-Base-Datei. Die MySQL-Datenbank ist über den Java-JDBC-Treiber angebunden (alles aus dem openSuse-repository) Starte ich die ODB-Datei und verbinde mich zur Datenbank so erhalte zunächst korrekt das Datenbank-login und nach Eingabe des richtigen Passworts beim Laden des Formulars die Fehlermeldung "Die Dateninhalte konnten nicht geladen werden - unknown type '246 in column 38 of 47 in binary encoded result set". Der SQL-Befehl, der hierzu führte ist ein ganz einfaches SELECT * FROM _datenbank._tabelle ORDER BY _feld1 ASC, _feld 2 ASC (Lesen aller Inhalte einer einzigen Tabelle, wobei 2 Felder aufsteigend sortiert werden). In der eigentlichen Datenbank sind alle Daten vorhanden, die Nutzer-Berechtigungen und Passwörter sind über den MySQL-Administrator angelegt über den auch das Backup der Datenbank ohne Fehler eingespielt werden konnte (der Fehler tritt auch mit älteren Backup-Dateien auf). Vielleicht hat ja jemand einen Tipp zu diesen beiden Problemkreisen. Danke dafür schon jetzt.

LG S1 MDGDG C2D T7200

Hi all, Last year I bought the above LG Notebook. I'm running it with SuSE 10.2 and it works fine so far, except I have a problem with my WLAN access point at home. But there's no problem with other access points. Last week I tried to install SuSE 10.3 and was disappointed. 1) The graphic chip is not supported (ATI Mobility Radeon X1600), but it was on 10.2 2) The cable network interface doesn't work (Agere Systems ET-131x PCI-E Ethernet Controller), but it did with 10.2 3) I still have the same trouble with my accesspoint, even without encryption. (Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG) Am I doing something wrong? Is it possible 10.3 has less hardwaresupport than 10.2? Thanks for any hint. - Werner - -- ALC Computertechnik GmbH - Kaiserstr. 100 - D 52134 Herzogenrath phone: +49-2407-9581-15, fax: +49-2407-9581-39, web: http://alc.de Handelsregister/Registered at: Amtsgericht Aachen: HRB 3714 UST-ID Nr: DE 811345640 Geschäftsführer/Manager: Werner Modenbach, Wilfried Renkens, Christoph Wieners --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-mobile+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-mobile+help(a)opensuse.org

IBM R50e and CPU-frequeny
by Rainer Krienke 12 Nov '07

12 Nov '07

Hello, I have an IBM R50 E with a Intel Celeron 1.4 Ghz processor installed with 10.3. Recently I discovered that simply loading the module p4_clockmod scales down the CPU-frequency to about 170MHZ and as needed scales the freq up. This helps saving battery power. What I would like to do is to set a lower limit beacuse sometimes the interaction feels quite slow because of the very low initial frequency. So what I would like to to is to say: Use eg 500MHZ as a lower limt for downscaling the CPU and scale up as needed. On my P4 Desktop I once had such an option where I could say eg: echo "500" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq to get this done but in 10.3 there is no such proc entry. Any other way to get this done?

Missing Menus and Folder Icons
by "Jürgen R. Plasser" 11 Nov '07

11 Nov '07

This may be off topic, but I am using OpenSUSE on my laptop so I have some an excuse for posting here :) After upgrading from OpenSUSE 10.2 to 10.3 i386 on my old Thinkpad A30 I am missing my menus for suspending (disk or mem) and shutting down the system. How do I get them back (because suspending to disk worked for me)? You can see a screenshot here: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2388/1878036871_da3d03ae42.jpg (in German) - shows only logout ... Kpowersave is running and working. BTW, how can i setup my power button for shutdown? This worked in 10.1 and I never got it running again. I did not find any answers: Some time ago I tried to change the icon for folders in KDE, but now I do not have any icon for a folder which is very disturbing. Where do I setup a default folder icon? Well, all not major glitches but if working very useful for my everyday work ...

After working for several times suspend to ram breaks completely
by Detlef Grittner 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Hello! I have installed OpenSUSE 10.3 i386 on a Gericom EGO notebook, which is basically an MSI 1003. After installation and all upgrades I was able to suspend the machine with s2ram and the options "-f -a 1 -v", "-f -a 3 -v", and even "-f -p -m" worked. But after using this several times, the machine now hangs on resume. A complete reinstallation can solve the problem, which is really strange. The machine has an ATI Radeon 9700 Mobility and I am using the open source driver. I have installed no proprietary drivers, if not the installation program has. Are there any hints what the problem could be?

Acer Travelmate 4002 und Suse 10.3
by Jürgen Jentsch 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

Hallo, bei mir läuft das Acer Travelmate 4002 WLMI unter Suse 10.2 ziemlich zufrieden stellend. Was leider nicht geht, ist suspend to disk und suspend zu RAM. Da mir die 10.2 bis auf diese zwei Punkte (noch) reicht, mal die Frage an diejenigen mit gleicher (ähnlicher) Hardware. Geht suspend unter der 10.3? Viele Grüße Jürgen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-mobile+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-mobile+help(a)opensuse.org
