I'll echo that. JPilot works better in my opinion than kpilot. Like Ben, I have used it for well over a year with my visor platinum. It syncs well via usb. Best, Bye! Keith B.

It turns out that the library is in GAL.RPM. It was in the SuSE library. Sorry dj tuchler

disabling UPnP port 5000
by zentara 07 Feb '02

07 Feb '02

Hi, I have had a port scan of my SuSEFirewall2 done at grc.com, they reported everything is stealth, except port 113(ident) and 5000(UPnP), which are closed. I can see where 113 is controlled in the firewall script, but I can't figure out where UPnP 5000 is controlled. Where do I disable that? -- $|=1;while(1){print pack("h*",'75861647f302d4560275f6272797f3');sleep(1); for(1..16){for(8,32,8,7){print chr($_);}select(undef,undef,undef,.05);}}

SuSe's Inadequate Gnome Library

Once again, SuSE provides rpm files that need libraries not anywhere to be found in any SuSE Gnome library. Nor can I find this file at Gnome or Ximian Gnome. libgal.so.18 Where can I get it? Thanks dn tuchler

Netscape .pdf-plugin
by David List 07 Feb '02

07 Feb '02

I have a problem opening .pdf-files from Netscape. The .pdf-plugin for Netscape (nnpdf.so) doesn't work anymore. It used to work right after the system installation (SuSE Linux 7.3). I have since updated the system with YOU. I have tried reinstalling both Netscape, the Netscape plugins and Acroread. That didn't help. I get a message saying "Could not load the plug-in 'nnpdf.so' for the MIME type 'application/pdf'. Make sure enough memory is available and that the plug-in is installed correctly. The system has 768 MB memory, and there is plenty available! How come this problem suddenly occurs? Best regards, David List

Canon BJC-5100 under SuSE 7.3
by Ken Hughes 07 Feb '02

07 Feb '02

I've got a cow-orker here who recently picked up a copy of SuSE 7.3 to try out. Problem is that he's got a Canon 5100 printer that he's trying to get working. I understand that this is a GDI or "WinPrinter", but I figured I'd see if anyone here has, or known anyone who has, gotten one working on SuSE.

Update of 7.1 to 7.3
by John Janmaat 07 Feb '02

07 Feb '02

Hello, I have been attempting to update Suse 7.1 to Suse 7.3 with little success. I have tried a network update (ftp), but the network I am on does not respond to the bootp request sent by yast. I have also downloaded the 7.3 directory from a mirror of the Suse site (ftp.crc.ca) using wget. I can get yast to see the directory with the files in it, but it tells me that my system is up to date, relative to the downloaded files (from 'Update Entire System' in yast). Any suggestions? Thanks, John. -- ========================================== John Janmaat Department of Economics Acadia University, Wolfville, NS, B0P 1X0 (902)585-1461 All opinions stated are personal, unless otherwise indicated.

I wanted to take a look at the above, so I installed it via Yast2 from the 7.3 disks. Installed OK except for one thing. Where dies it install to? I can't find or run it, even after rebooting. Any ideas? Harry G
