Hi there, In my last post I left out a couple of details - sorry about that. Here's the real deal: I recently downloadad and installed junkbuster rpm -i junkbuster.rpm However, after boot I get the following messages: Starting Name Service Daemon /sbin/init.d/rc2.d/S84junkbuster: /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: No such file or directory Master Resource Control: Failed service in runlevel 2: junkbuster I checked to see if any of the files mentioned on this list are where they're supposed to be and they are: /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K09junkbuster /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K09junkbuster /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S84junkbuster /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S84junkbuster /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S84junkbuster /etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K09junkbuster /etc/rc.d/init.d/junkbuster /etc/junkbuster/aclfile /etc/junkbuster/config /etc/junkbuster/forward /etc/junkbuster/trust However, the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions doesn't exist.

[SLE] Retrieving source packages
by abrahams＠valinet.com 03 Mar '00

03 Mar '00

How can I retrieve a particular source package (in this case, the .texinfo sources for the Gnu utilities)? I know that they are in package zq, but Yast 1 at least doesn't seem to have any way I can see of retrieving files via their package. (I'm running SuSE 6.2).

Hello all, I haved a laptop running on my home network and I would like to run x windows on my laptop from my suse 6.1 server. What telnet client should I use to do this....After this, do I need to set up XF86config for the monitor on my laptop or will it use the values found on the server. In other words What steps do I take to get X through a telnet client on my laptop?

Anyone know where I could find a list (and their meaning) for all the radius messages that pour out? radius[455]: could not cache client datum for host portmaster.domain.com For example, what is a datum?

RE: [SLE] Video Problems with SuSE 6.3
by tduggan＠dekaresearch.com 03 Mar '00

Hi Jerry, One question since you mention Yast2 also has the problem. Are you running a frame buffer? Yast2 uses a vesa frame buffer Xserver and your card will need to be vesa 2.0 compliant in order for it to work properly. I ask because I have a similiar card that is not (IIRC it's vesa 1.2) and my first run in with Yast2 on that machine was not pretty. Removing all traces of frame buffers and booting CD2 fixed the problem. That's all I can think of for now.

Hi Nadeem, Hi everyone. Yes, I know. But I have libgimp-1.1.so.14 already. Basically we need a way of having libgimp-1.1.so.11 installed at the same time. Maybe there is some way but Yast certainly will not let us. Or maybe there is a later SANE package that will run with .so.14. Hopeless. Best wishes, Steve from Steve at FeF, Spain.

Hi, You could set up a link for libgimp-1.1.so.11 that points to libgimp-1.1.so.14. It should be alright since you have the newer lib. It's not pretty but it might work.

Yes, I know it has been discussed many times. Yes, I already checked the archive. Yes I already checked in deja news. The problem: I can play CD audio with this card but I cannot play any .wav files nor I can have any system sound in KDE. This is what I get when I do a wavplay /usr/share/sounds/wav/gong.wav Pathname: /usr/share/sounds/wav/gong.wav Sampling Rate: 11025 Hz Mode: Mono Samples: 143343 Bits: 8 Invalid argument: Audio block size (64 bytes) In the archive I found that someone else had this problem (system sounds in KDE) and he said that he could solve it but didn't post the details. If someone knows how to solve this problem (I can play CD audio but I cannot play wav files) ...

RE: [SLE] question about launching program as regular user
by Rik.Dunphy＠motorola.com 03 Mar '00

There is no need to install a full copy of staroffice for every user. If you install staroffice (as root) to a directory which is accessible by other users they need simply run the setup in the bin directory of the installation. In your case /progs/Soffice/bin/setup It should then ask the user if they wish to do a full or workstation install. A workstation install typically uses 5-6Mb. The user should rerun the same setup program to uninstall. Well, this is how I did it with the CD version, not too sure about the one that comes with SuSE?
