I just returned from a three-week vacation (which was really necessary), and I still try to catch up with everything. Sorry for leaving without notice! Boy, you people post like mad :) I have more than 2.600 messages in this folder. So bear with me, until I have caught up a bit. I hope, there were no serious problems in the meantime. See you soon!

I'll post it on the list when it is tried and tested on all browsers I have at my disposal. And I was wrong to suggest an upgrade. Point taken. :) Which, brings me to the point of WAP phone surfing... What qualities of web site design should I include to cater for Mobile surfing?

[SLE] manpath
by rhughson＠home.com 25 May '00

25 May '00

I am using suse 6.4 and other than my sound card not working properly, I have one problem. Every day a process starts called manpath (uder ktop, lists it as, in tree format as 'sh...security-contro...security-contro...sh...csh...manpath') and it runs forever hogging the cpu. I figured I would let it run to see if it would ever end on it's own but it never does. Matter of fact, I went away for a few days and came back to find five seperate instances of it running and that it had been running for days. I read the man pages on manpth to find out what it is doing but can't figure out why it doesn't finish. Any suggestions? -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Hello again, I recently upgraded to Real Player 7.0 since 5.0 gold won't work with realaudio or realvideo files. It dosen't work properly. It loads in the data (or seems to) but won't play it. (My sound support is through Alsa). Anyone else have problems with Real Player not working for them ? -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

[SLE] mp3 "magic"
by jmgrant＠primenet.com 25 May '00

25 May '00

Anyone taken a stab at making "magic" entries for mp3 files? I'd like to be able to do a "file cool.mp3" and get back something like: cool.mp3: 44.1 kHz 128 kbps j-stereo MPEG1 LayerIII Maybe also something about the copy/ecc header bits. Failing that, anyone know a good console utility that'll parse just the header like that? I'm not looking for something that dumps 10 lines/file, or any of the author/genre/album/etc stuff. Just as much of the mpeg details as will fit comfortably and concisely on one (perhaps longish) line of a console. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

[SLE] SuSE 6.4 & RAID1 again
by linuxsys＠pinefields.com 25 May '00

25 May '00

[I'm still looking for some input on this issue - how about it? At least this asking about SuSE and RAID1 and not RedHat...] Basically, has anyone gotten RAID1 to work under 6.4? I can get RAID0 to run but RAID1 collapses with a "bad superblock magic" error message when I run mkraid. I've tried a couple of different devices, more schemes from more HOWTO's and FAQ's than I can keep straight, and the results are invariably the same. Worse, the raidtab I built for this effort will run RAID1 under RedHat 6.2. I asked on linux-raid about this problem and the general consensus is that the SuSE 6.4 implementation of the 2.2.14 kernel won't work with raidtools 0.90, the current rev for raidtools (or is there a better choice???).

[SLE] Mixer(s)?
by irisinc＠gci.net 25 May '00

25 May '00

Suse 6.4 became available for me to purchase about a week after it was announced for distribution in Europe. I rushed home from CompUSA and spent the better part of an evening setting it up on a 20 Gb HD. Was I ever pleasantly surprised. Everything went as advertised and installation was fairly easy. That either means that suse had done a good job, I have finally learned something about nix, or all of the above. I have a SB Live Sound Card. The card set up with the OSS driver and worked fine. I made the "soundon" entry in /sbin/init.d/boot.local and everything worked fine. I have used Yast and SuSEconfig from time to time and I suspect that something has gone wrong. I no longer have the entry in /sbin/init.d/boot.local. I have no OSS files anywhere on my hard drive and when I try to install the OSS driver I receive a message that I have the kernel configured with a sound driver and OSS can't load. In addition, dmesg says that the driver emu10k1, is loaded but I get no sound. When I try to open a mixer, any mixer, their all the same response, from the multimedia menu in KDE, I get a message that either says one of two things; Can't open mixer, or you may not have permission (I'm running as root) chmod a+rw. I have written chmod a+rw four times and nothing changes. I reinstalled all of the mixer packages. The permissions are crw-rw-rw the owners are; root audio. What do I have to do to get sound working again besides a reinstall? Any help is appreciated.

Has any-one mnaged to poll a groupwise message box via fetchmail?? Would be a coup if I could manage it and would at least avoid me having to put up with small at the it dept who keep muttering about doing the same thing as all the others. Any help much appreciated.
