I have 256M memory and want to set 512M (us usially in unix) in SWAP partition. YaST is say me: "Linux is only able to maintain 128 megabytes a swap partition. It is recommended not to use a swap partition bigger than 128 megabytes". But why? Is it a feature?

Is there a way to download the pictures in to SuSE? It comes with a USB and serial connector if that helps. Or is there a better digital camera out there that will work with SuSE? It seems to use my scanner software that is on win95 to get it's pictures but my scanner won't work on linux at all.

qt.changes note raises question...

The Oct 31st comment says that an 'ugly' patch was added to fix uic for KDE, but that it broke the qt-designer. I am assuming that still broken, seeing that qt.change file didn't mention a fix. I have QtFree 2.2.2 installed and compiled it it works great when run from KDE2. I have tested uic and it compiles my qt dialogs to produce c++ files. So, I am not going to install the qt rpms from SuSE KDE-2.0.1 release. Does anyone (Adrian?) see any problems with this route? BTW, Adrian, anyone who is "to drunk to drink more" and still put out KDE releases is some awesome coder! ;-) JLK ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Dec 1 00:29:50 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - added rpath for uic/kdelibs and fixed uic fix .. to drunk to drink more ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Nov 30 11:31:36 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - fixed dif ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Nov 30 00:33:26 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - added fix for uic and qiconview ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Nov 29 11:33:51 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - fixed build on ppc ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Nov 21 09:31:40 CET 2000 - ro(a)suse.de - spec fix ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Nov 17 14:57:54 CET 2000 - ro(a)suse.de - fixed neededforbuild: += libmng-devel ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Nov 13 21:40:29 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - new version 2.2.2 added qpngio fix from waldo ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Nov 10 00:57:39 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - fixed static config for <6.4 distris (no libmng) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 31 13:45:29 CET 2000 - adrian(a)suse.de - split the qt package in qt qt-devel qt-extensions qt-man qt-static Added an ugly patch to get an uic with KDE support.

"There appears to be a misconfiguration. You have associated konqueror with text/html, but it can't handle this file type." I think the message is pretty straight forward, however I don't understand why. I used to be able to view these pages in the Beta releases.

SuSE KDE2.0.1 rpm questions
by jerrykreps＠jlkreps.net 06 Dec '00

06 Dec '00

From: Jerry Kreps <jerrykreps(a)jlkreps.net> Date: Wed, 6 Dec 2000 08:51:16 -0600 Message-Id: <00120608511603.06798@JLKreps> Subject: SuSE KDE2.0.1 rpm questions SuSE, I've just downloaded the KDE 2.0.1 bug fixes on the SuSE ftp site. I had previously downloaded and compiled QtFree 2.2.2 from the TollTech site. It includes the designer, etc, and was compiled dynamic. I also turned on the graphics switches for jpg, png, mng and gif, which were NOT in the the previous SuSE KDE2 install, rendering Konqueror and several other graphic apps unable to display jpg and other formats. I have a few questions: 1) Unlike the previous SuSE KDE2 release, there is no script to run and no indication that any particular order of installation is desireable. Order doesn't matter for this bug fix? 2) Would installing SuSE qt-devel rpm disable my qt-2.2.2 installation? 3) What does qt-exten add? Wouldn't I already have it since I downloaded and installed the entire qt-2.2.2 tar ball from TollTech? 4) What does qt-freebies add? Wouldn't a complete install of QtFree 2.2.2 have installed these? 5) Since I had previously downloaded and installed QtFree 2.2.2 from TollTech, and compiled for dynamic access, I don't think I should install qt-static... Yes? No? 6) TollTech's latest release of QtFree is 2.2.2. Your version of qt, under xdev1, is labeled qt-2.2.2-1. Does this represent an upgrade released by TollTech or patches by SuSE? If patches by SuSE should I install them? If they are static and not dynamic this would blow my qt install away. No doubt others on this list will have the same questions. Please advise.
