[SLE] KDE and debian
by kar＠webline.dk 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

Once and again this topic emerges. I have yet to find out what's it about. Debian says that QPL is incompatible with GPL. Case seems clear cut, but then the KDE guys say that it's not true. And SuSE and others include KDE with their distrobution. I expect SuSE to have lawyers going trrough license terms, so how come that SuSE can distribute KDE and Debian can not? Can this matter be answered without any flame? Can it be answered in a simple manner so I can understand it? -- 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/

In this case, a Cirrus Logic CS4236B. According to the ALSA Sound Card Matrix, it is supported natively with the snd-card-cs4236 module from the ALSA package. After you have isapnp configured (try `pnpdump -c > /etc/isapnp.conf' to get started), you should be able to use alsaconf and it should work. -- -=|JP|=- "Why, oh, why didn't I take the blue pill?"

make sure sound is included as module - should be all that is required.

[SLE] dual boot installation...weirdness
by Daniel_Casey＠mail.jbhunt.com 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

I'm sure everyone is sick of seeing posts like this, but this is unusual. Unusual because I didn't have these problems installing Red Hat and didn't expect anything but normal with SuSE. I've got an 18gb with one 8gb Windows98 partition and the rest _had_ Red Hat on it. I say _had_ because after booting from the SuSE 6.4 CD and going into Custom Partitioning and removing the RH partitions, it couldn't see any available space over and above the 8gb Windows paritition. So, I booted a Win98 boot disk, ran fdisk wiped the non-Dos partition off the drive and created a second partition, which was my D: drive and it worked, no problems. Then I booted the SuSE CD again, and tried to have it overwrite the the new D: partition and install itself, but this didn't work either. It appears to only be seeing space between cylinders 1019 and 1026 as what's availabe, that's it. For some reason, it can't see the rest of the empy space on drive. I also did an fdisk /mbr...I thought that might be messing things up, but it didn't fix the SuSE installation problem.

[SLE] Re: In the poll
by mike＠e-volution.com 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

Are you _sure _ about that? I guess it was that it reached a SuSE linux mailing list, and massive votes came. Don't you find it a bit serious to accuse an employee like that? I'm sorry but I think that the attitude is _absolute_ abuse to remove one item (and what it means). The hole poll should have been closed, and if what you say about the SuSE employee, you could have made it public, I doubt however that this could be possible, or that this has been handled in a responsible, mature way. Thanks, for answering, and sorry for the situation, but I belive it is important that you know some side effects (or should I say direct?) about this kind on thinks. Mike.

[SLE] integrated sound
by Daniel_Casey＠mail.jbhunt.com 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

Would the scanpci show who/what/where about the the integrated sound on my system? I run scanpc and I also cat /proc/pci try to see if it's in there, but I don't see anything looks like a sound device. I'm trying to get all information needed to configure the sound. I've been told that a standard SB driver will work, but I guess I need a little more information than that.

[SLE] problem compiling under 6.4
by ZephyrQ＠worldnet.att.net 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

Could someone help with this: I have been trying to fix this problem for several days--everytime I try to compile something that requires GTK, I get this: checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.3... Headers vs. library version mismatch! no configure: error: Please check that gtk-config is in path, the directory where GTK+ libraries are installed (returned by 'gtk-config --libs' command) is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent variable and GTK+ is version 1.2.3 or above. or checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.6... *** GTK+ header files (version 1.2.7) do not match *** library (version 1.2.8) no configure: error: Cannot find GTK: Is gtk-config in path? Yes, gtk-config is in the path. Yes, I've uninstalled/reinstalled gtk+, I've even checked both copies of gtk-config to make sure they are the same file (it wasn't initially--but fixing this didn't help). Yes, I've checked the paths. Am I missing something simple? Or do I need to edit a header file somewhere (and, if so, where?) Specs: SuSE 6.4 with helix-gnome + icewm (yes, I updated with helix's versions of GTK and Glib).

[SLE] USB printing
by stardatecomputers＠eircom.net 28 Jun '00

28 Jun '00

Hello all, Has anyone been able to set up a USB printer in SuSE 6.4 I have tried everything to get my HP Deskjet 895Cxi to work but to no avail. The nearest I came is by configuring with yast2. It autodetects my printer as "unknown by Hewlett Packard", when I tell it which model it is and run a test print all I get is garbage. If I tell yast2 it is a laserjet, I get about 1/8 page and then garbage. Any help would be appreciated.
