Re: [SLE] Yast crashing
by Volker Manns 31 Aug '01

Hi John, check out the SuSe site for hardware (in-)compatability issues. I had similar experiences using YAST for a clean install of 7.1 on a host equipped with a Promise RAID ATA100 controller and a SCSI-drive hooked up to a AHA-2940 Adaptec (SCSI drive was destination for this install...)

KDE2.2 upgrade questions
by Cleary_Mike＠emc.com 31 Aug '01

31 Aug '01

I upgraded last night using the rpms from kde.org, and it went fairly well, but I have some lingering problems. First of all, the following packages had dependency problems, so I didn't install them (& I don't think it should matter): qtecasound-devel-0.1.2d1-87.rpm kdebindings-mozilla-2.2pre1-5.rpm kdepim-kpilot-2.2.0-7.rpm kec-0.6.2b-6.rpm kdelibs-cups-2.2.0-4.rpm 1. The biggest problem first: If I log out of KDE, and then try to restart (using "startx"), KDE will start up, but the screen is so dark it is virtually unreadable. If I reboot it will start up just fine. If I log out, do a ctrl-alt-bksp, and then "startx", it appears as if it is going to start up normally - the KDE splash screen appears but never gets past the first step and just sits there. Although a small square which says "click to connect to internet" (or something like that) appears - if I click on it, my modem starts dialing). The ONLY thing I did was install the new 2.2 packages, nothing else. Any ideas as to what might cause this? 2. When I tried to do a search in SuSE Help I got the following error message: "There appears to be a configuration error. You have associated Konqueror with text/html, but it can't handle this file type." If I remove html from the file types associated w/ Text in Konqueror Settings, then it will open the help file in a text editor as the html source file! ???? I have no idea what to do here...... 3. When I first started KDE after the upgrade, I got an error message about /dev/dsp (not being able to start the soundserver). I disabled aRts and that seemed to take care of it, but I get soundserver error messages when I start some applications (i.e. like the battleship game). All of the system sounds work (from both front and rear speakers). However, when I play a music CD using kscd, sound only comes from the front speakers, and not the rear. Any insights on this apparent soundserver weirdness?

SuSE eMail Server II (Error 554 Relay access denied)
by Mahesh Pillari 31 Aug '01

31 Aug '01

I had installed SuSE Email Server II with a Local IP 192.168.2.100 and mydomain.co.uk. I have no problem in Local Area Network (LAN) IP 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0 for send / receive emails to other domain names like user(a)aol.com or user(a)suse.co.uk. Our second office is connected to another office via Router having IP 192.168.3.0/255.255.255.0. Now the problem is in our second office, I'm able to receive all emails and can send emails to mydomain.co.uk. But I'm not able to send mails to any other domain like user(a)aol.com or user(a)suse.co.uk or any other domain. I get an error in Outlook Express while sending mails: The error is as follows: "The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'user(a)suse.co.uk'. Subject 'Test for Sending Email', Account: 'user(a)mydomain.co.uk', Server: '192.168.2.100', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '554 <user(a)suse.co.uk>: Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 554, Error Number: 0x800CCC79" I tried to put Second Office IP 192.168.3. in the access file under /etc/postfix/access and recreated database using commands "postmap /etc/postfix/access" and "postfix reload". This does not work. I also tried "mynetworks = 192.168.2.0, 127.0.0.0, 192.168.3.0" in the file "/etc/postfix/main.cf" This also does not work. Have I gone wrong anywhere?. How should I proceed!. Please Help me. Mahesh

Problem with LinNeighborhood
by Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. 31 Aug '01

31 Aug '01

This may, or may not, be coincidental. Hence the cross posting. Immediately after upgrading KDE2.2 on my 750MHz Duron/Suse 7.1 I find that LinNeighborhood will no longer establish a connection to the other machine in my 2 node mini-LAN. I successfully downloaded, compiled and installed LinNeighborhood-0.6.3. The LinNeighborhood log of the attempt to connect shows: GetSMBShare:smbclient -L IGOR -I 10.0.0.1 -U% -W FFC -d3 added interface ip=10.0.0.2 bcast=10.0.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Client started (version 2.0.7). Connecting to 10.0.0.1 at port 139 session request to IGOR failed (Called name not present) Connecting to 10.0.0.1 at port 139 session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Called name not present) I would appreciate suggestions to solve this problem Thanks in advance.

Solved: IMAP client connection problem
by Jyry Kuukkanen 31 Aug '01

31 Aug '01

Hello Silly me. I should have remembered better: imapd shiped/offered since SuSE 7.0 does *not* work properly with any/some Windows clients (Netscape, ImapNotifier). The solution is to remove current imap package (SuSe 7.1/7.2) and then install imap.rpm package from 7.0 and, naturally (!!) pop3.rpm (or is it pop.rpm). What's wrong with 7.1/7.2 imap.rpm when it comes to Win+Netscape or such? --Jyry C:-( C:-/ C========8-O C8-/ C:-( Chiquita: Tuemme "Puhdas elämä (suomalaiselle) lapselle" sekä "Paha elämä banaaninpoimijalle" kampanjoita
