CDMA connection via NetworkManager
by Terje J. Hanssen 30 Mar '10

30 Mar '10

Hi, I wonder if anybody has got 'CDMA Connection' to work via NetworkManager? I have a D50 USB wireless modem. The driver package, cmotec-qtmodem 1.6 rpm, installs a program, D50 Modem Manager. http://kickback.no/redirectly/5866/228/2004403?dest=http://www.ice.no/UserF… Network Manager get a CDMA Connection line, but NM doesn't seem to be able to connect with the modem. Trying to start the D50 Modem Manager, also this hang without any connection. Rgds, Terje J.

Yes, that would get you exactly to the milestone release and not to the state of factory - which is the same at the day of the release but moves forward until the next milestone comes out, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj(a){novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

That one is used for testing of updates. The oss repository is updated with each milestone so that you update with zypper dup from one milestone to the other, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj(a){novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Hi, Is every piece in place to start testing 'nouveau' on 11.3 M4? A simple setup procedure would be neccessary.

Which distribution - how to upgrade to 11.3 M4?
by Terje J. Hanssen 29 Mar '10

29 Mar '10

Hi all, 1. Which developer version is really installed/running? Initially I installed 11.3 Milestone 1 from DVD iso, and thought I had seen later upgrades to M2 and M3 after several upgrades with 'zypper dup' several times. But now I became unsure which distribution (Milestone) I really have: cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 11.3 Milestone 1 (x86_64) VERSION = 11.3 cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.32-3-desktop (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.4.2 [gcc-4_4-branch revision 155802] (SUSE Linux) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT 2009-12-04 00:41:46 +0100 Can this really still be Milestone 1 after all package upgrades? How can we verify exactlly which developer distro (Milestone) we currently have? 2. How to upgrade to 11.3 Milestone 4 ? Looking at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3-Milestone4/ there is no 'repo' available, just 'iso' and 'delta' Isn't it possible to use 'zypper dup' to upgrade from a previous Milestone to M4? If not, what is the recommended way to upgrade to M4? The M4 delta DVD iso isn't bootable so that one can run an update installation from there (according to my attempt). Rgds, Terje J.

Ricoh xD-Picture Card Controller
by Terje J. Hanssen 22 Mar '10

22 Mar '10

Hi, From what I can see, the card reader in my hp8710w laptop is a Ricoh xD-Picture Card Controller: # lspci | grep Card 02:06.0 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev b9) 02:06.1 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev b9) 02:06.6 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 10) Entering a 4GB SDHC card in the reader, automatically mounts fine in 11.3 M3 Gnome (similar like a removeable usb disk). But rebooting the system with the card in the slot, freezes the system before reboot really starts, so that a cold start is required. Any similar experience or what the reason can be? I expect this is a bug somewhere? With 11.2 however, the SDHC card doesn't mount at all. Any tip how this possiby can be done in 11.2, lack of driver or other reasons? Rgds, Terje J.
