Zip drive and HFS
by FromName 10 Mar '02

10 Mar '02

Does anybody know how to access/mount a zip drive (in hfs format) when in non-root status (i.e. as a normal user)? Currently I have to switch to root ('su root'), but its quite boring, as I'm not the only user of my linux box, and I don't want that other can do damages!

[AUDiO] Rebirth Player somewhere?
by Oliver Ob 08 Mar '02

08 Mar '02

Locations: ========== www.propellerheads.se www.steinberg.de Program: ======== ReBirth 338 1.0 ReBirth 338 2.0+ Question: ========= I have searched the entire Propellerheads' homepage and other sources. I have exchanged mails with M.Zetterquist, one of the programmers and still do. I need a KDE (or even better: CONSOLE) player for the audio RB format, I was able to locate format descriptions on the above pages, but even the programmers do not know of a Rebirth Format player (.RBS file ext) under Linux environment. ("devzone" on the HP above) Now the ?: Is there any of you capable of programming such a thing? Maybe you know one of that kind. Please PM me, I am in contact with Propheads for Linux support anyway. So far I have found similar analogue synth programs for Linux, but none of those I know does support the ingenious .RBS Format.

XFree86-4.2.0
by Tony Jones 06 Mar '02

06 Mar '02

Does anyone have any idea on when SuSE will, if ever, put XFree86-4.2.0 on their online update? Also, I use online update on a 56k and it seems to take upwards of 30 minutes to download the patch definitions. any ideas on how to speed that up? I use SuSE 7.3, 333mhz, GeForce MX 400 64MB, 352MB RAM. Tony Jones

Thanks for all the great feedback. Wasn't sure I'd have to recompile the kernel or since it is a Microsoft product there would be some kind of incompatibility issue. Cheers!

NVidia GeForce 2 MX400 PCI
by Lion Queen 05 Mar '02

05 Mar '02

Still having trouble with my GeForce2 MX400 PCI video board. Here are the symptoms. I try a full install of Suse 7.2 (also tried my old version of RedHat 6.1) and I get a message at boot that the video board is recognized and it seems to get everything right. The first install screen comes up and I choose the full install. A little sub window comes up showing the kernal loading and then black screen, nothing at all. I am getting a signal to the monitor because the green light stays on and the yellow blinking never occurs. I have waited up to 15 minutes, thinking that it's just working, but screen is still black. I also can't seem to press any keys that get me to something resembling a prompt. Why is this happening and is there something I can do to fix the problem? Maybe something in the BIOS. I have tried every list I can find and help site, but can't find any answers. Thanks in advance Andy _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Apache will not start...
by Christoph Starkmann 04 Mar '02

04 Mar '02

Hi! I guess that this is not quite the appropriate list, but the only SuSE-list I'm subscribed to right now. Perhaps someone can give me a hint... I was trying to install Typo3 (WCMS) and therefor ImageMagick, GDLib and Freetype. After having some problems it seems as if I have smashed the apache webserver... BUT the only errormessage I get is while booting a plain "failed". Can I get further information on what is wrong somewhere in my system? I'd really like to fix this. I already tried to uninstall and then reinstall Apache, to no extend. I reinstalled manually from the sources(config, make, make install) as well as with the package manager... I do not really want to reinstall the entire system ;| Cheers and thanxalot, Kiko ----- It's not a bug, it's a feature. christoph starkmann mailto:kiko@nfq.de http://www.fh-augsburg.de/~kiko ICQ: 100601600 -----

Help with ALSA
by Peter Cheney 04 Mar '02

04 Mar '02

Greetings all, Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong or show me what to do to get sound to work using the ALSA driver? I play CD or MP3 via XMMS and no output. Searched for "sound' on sus.com and found article titled "Installing a soundsystems from scratch" and followed this with no problems. Sound on my workstation works OK with W2k and RHL7.3 but I have decided on SuSE 7.3pro due to more multi-media options. Harware detection of sound card (Intel 820) during install was OK. Here is last part of modules.conf: -- options snd-card-intel8x0 snd_index=0 alias char-major-14 off # Alsa sound support. # Warning: please don't modify comments over aliases 'snd-card-#' alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_cards_limit=1 snd_major=116 # W60f.Kwq_E7BMZmF:82820 820 (Camino 2) Chipset AC'97 Audio Controller alias snd-card-0 snd-card-intel8x0 # YaST2: sound system dependent part # alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-11 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss -- I can delete/add the card in YaST2 and no errros. When configure sound in KDE Config, changing from "Auto Detect" to ALSA and stop/start the sound daemon I get a thump in the speakers. All help and comments would be greatly appreciated.
