[SuSE Linux] qt 1.40
by elw＠ellijay.com 02 Sep '98

02 Sep '98

Are there any rpms for qt 1.40 for Suse 5.2 yet? I've tried to compile the source and get errors after about 10 minutes into make. Someone better step up and lay out standard libraries for diff. linux distro's or else linux is bound to fail. ( as a newbie to linux<about two monthes> i'm already disgusted with every program asking for a trip to the ftp world for another lib file.) I'd like to see distributions let you upload your source and config file.......compile your binary and send it back to you. Maybe i'm just wishing for to much from linux...but joe smo will NEVER download a new lib everytime he wants to try out a new program.

YaST presented me a list of drivers. With this in mind, are you able to get your system booted up and get YaST running? 2) If YaST is indeed running, does it ask you what type of CDROM you have? The proprietary Creative Lab CDROM drive is a Matsushita/Panasonic CDROM drive and there is a driver specifically for it. It looks like SuSE supports it as I see a reference to this CDROM drive on the bottom of page 194 in the SuSE 5.2 manual. That section of the manual deals with all of the configuration settings for a Linux kernel. Obviously that section isn't any help until you have a working Linux system installed and you want to configure and compile your own kernel. This leads me to believe that SuSE must support this CDROM and it's just a matter of getting YaST to load the appropriate CDROM driver I think. 3) I went back to the original set of kernel driver modules from my original SuSE 5.2 install. This has a kernel version of 2.0.33 and it does include the Sound Blaster CDROM driver. The name of the driver module is "sbpcd.o" 4) I did run YaST and I went into the menu option where I selected a CDROM drive. I looked at the list of CDROMs that are available and the "Sound Blaster Pro", "sbpcd", is listed in the list of CDROM drives. I believe that's the driver you want.
