Netscape Error
by David Johanson 29 Mar '02

29 Mar '02

When bouncing back and forth between mail folders, I often get this error message: Warning: XmlGrid:messageList: SelecTypeArea() - bad position. box title is: Netscape: subprocess diagnostics (stdout/stderr). What does this mean, is it important, and how do I get rid of it. tia, dave -- David C.

Remote Update of Linux Applications
by Ron Cordell 29 Mar '02

29 Mar '02

Hi all, I have a project in which I need to remotely update my application. I was thinking that I could package up the application as an RPM, and place the RPM in a place where a cron job could check periodically. However, the cron job would need to kick off a process to install the RPM as root, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable. Can anyone suggest a method that already exists to do this sort of thing? Am I going down the right path? Thanks, -ronc

HI.. In /boot there is vmlinuz and vmlinuz.suse as well as some others.. The default boot is vmlinuz bot could someone tell me the difference between that and vmlinuz.suse which I assume is the failsafe option in the bootup screen ?? Regards Ted Wager

Java2
by Mark Doucette 29 Mar '02

29 Mar '02

Hi all, Small problem is driving me nutzo. I've looked through the archives and it seems no solution was given for this. I can't install a newer version of Mozilla/Netscape6 without having Java2 installed..can't install java2 without unixODBC. I installed unixODBC, unixODBC-devel etc..verified the libs were there, yet java2 still complains that it has these as unsatistied dependencies. I can force it yes, but then apt-get complains of a system with unmet deps and I'd really rather have it figured out. Hopefully it's something stupid Ive missed.

Re: [SLE] KDE picking up GNOME settings?
by Clayton Cornell 29 Mar '02

29 Mar '02

Yah, I know, but I am a bit puzzled why a GTK theme would be applied in KDE when I was messing with it in GNOME. I didn't turn it on in KDE... I didn't really want it in KDE. It just appeared without my consent. I wan't using any apps... just looking at the WM. I am a long time KDE user and not familiar with GNOME. I wanted to try out GNOME. Not impressed though if WM settings like themes that I apply in one WM carry over to other WMs in some automagical way. C.

kde3-beta: kdebindings is missing libs
by Paul W. Abrahams 29 Mar '02

29 Mar '02

Has anyone succeeded in installing kdebindings from the kde3 packages on the SuSE website? It appears to be missing three libraries, and those libraries aren't in any of the other base files: pwa@suillus:/usr/local/packages/kde-b3> rpm -i --test kdebindings3-2.91-2.rpm error: failed dependencies: libkfile.so.4 is needed by kdebindings3-2.91-2 libkssl.so.4 is needed by kdebindings3-2.91-2 libksycoca.so.4 is needed by kdebindings3-2.91-2 pwa@suillus:/usr/local/packages/kde-b3> ls arts-devel-0.7.1.2002022512-4.rpm kdenetwork3-devel-2.92-7.rpm kdeaddons3-2.92-9.rpm kdenetwork3-lisa-2.92-7.rpm kdeadmin3-2.92-6.rpm kdepim3-2.92-7.rpm kdeartwork3-2.92-9.rpm kdepim3-kpilot-2.92-7.rpm kdebase3-2.92-7.rpm kdesdk3-2.92-7.rpm kdebase3-devel-2.92-7.rpm kdesdk3-devel-2.92-7.rpm kdebase3-devel-doc-2.92-7.rpm kdetoys3-2.92-7.rpm kdebase3-ksysguardd-2.92-7.rpm kdeutils3-2.92-6.rpm kdebase3-nsplugin-2.92-7.rpm kdevelop3-2.1beta2_for_KDE_3.0-6.rpm kdebindings3-2.91-2.rpm kdoc3-2.91-41.rpm kdebindings3-mozilla-2.91-2.rpm qt3-3.0.2-9.rpm kdeedu3-2.92-7.rpm qt3-devel-3.0.2-9.rpm kdegames3-2.92-6.rpm qt3-devel-doc-3.0.2-9.rpm kdegraphics3-2.92-5.rpm qt3-devel-doc-rsync-10.rpm kdegraphics3-devel-2.92-5.rpm qt3-devel-rsync-10.rpm kdegraphics3-kooka-2.92-5.rpm qt3-devel-tools-3.0.2-10.rpm kdelibs3-2.92-7.rpm qt3-devel-tutorial-3.0.2-10.rpm kdelibs3-artsd-2.92-7.rpm qt3-extensions-3.0.2-10.rpm kdelibs3-devel-2.92-7.rpm qt3-man-3.0.2-10.rpm kdelibs3-devel-doc-2.92-7.rpm qt3-non-mt-3.0.2-10.rpm kdemultimedia3-2.92-8.rpm qt3-rsync-10.rpm kdemultimedia3-devel-2.92-8.rpm qt3-static-3.0.2-7.rpm kdenetwork3-2.92-7.rpm qt3-static-rsync-11.rpm pwa@suillus:/usr/local/packages/kde-b3> rpm -qlp * | grep "so\.4" /opt/kde3/lib/libkonq.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkonq.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libDCOP.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libDCOP.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkab.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkab.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdecore.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdecore.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdefakes.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdefakes.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdefx.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdefx.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeprint.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeprint.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeprint_management.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeprint_management.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdesu.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdesu.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkhtml.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkhtml.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkio.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkio.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkscreensaver.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkscreensaver.so.4.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib/libkspell.so.4 /opt/kde3/lib/libkspell.so.4.0.0 I posted about this once before and someone thought the problem might be that I needed kdelibs3, but kdelibs3 doesn't have the libfiles either.

It's definitely the best for copying alone, though a little pricey. As I said, Easy CD Creator is much more comprehensive. You can do everything you need with it and it's very easy. I'm not knocking the linux tools, but I'm waiting for one that has all the bells and whistles. John
