Yast2 BUG
by kevin.wilson＠comtrol.com 30 Apr '02

30 Apr '02

suse v8.0 KDE desktop Yast2 utility Bind Apache (all additional services most likely affected) When installing Bind and Apache using Yast2 the appropriate service entries were not put in the inittab file that will allow the services to be automatically started after the machine is rebooted. Suggestions of how to get these services to be auto-started after boot under the new v8.0 scheme would be appreciated. Thanks, Kevin

8.0 and reboot option problems...YAST problem???
by Tom Nielsen 30 Apr '02

30 Apr '02

I just installed 8 Pro last night. It didn't go quite as smoothly as I had hoped. 7.3 installed without a problem. I guess I tweaked it too much. When I do a logoff/reboot there's a drop down menu which should give me the option of going into Windows (dual-boot machine). But nothing is in the dropdown menu. The only option I have is the reboot the machine and sit by the system unit LILO pops up. I used to adjust this in YAST1, but I can't figure out how to get to it. Anyone know how to solve one of my two problems? Tom Nielsen Neuro Logic Systems 805.389.5435 x18 www.neuro-logic.com

8.0 - Personal or Professional?
by Jannik Lindquist 30 Apr '02

30 Apr '02

Hello, I would very much like to move from Windows to SuSE. I am using a Toshiba Satellite (S1620CDS) and I use it almost exclusively for office-work. In other words: I am neither a developer nor a system administrator. But I am concerned about compatibility. For this reason I ask: Should I choose SuSE Personal or Professional? Best regards, Jannik Lindquist

Hello, They are very nice drives, unfortunately there is a significant problem with the SuSE 8 dvd and these dvd drives.

check my webserver scheme, and advice...
by Scheme Loh 30 Apr '02

30 Apr '02

It's a light use webserver. I was thinking about using a 40GB IDE drive as the system disk and a 3ware 45GB IDE raid as the data drives. I would like to set it up so that Linux runs off the 40GB drive, but web sites, mySQL databases and so forth are kept on the raid. Any set-up tips on how I should approach this set-up in general. IDE drives will be fine for the load. thanks... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Health - your guide to health and wellness http://health.yahoo.com

RE: [SLE] SuSE 8, Nvidia and limited resolution
by Cleary_Mike＠emc.com 30 Apr '02

I have the exact same problem: I had it in 7.3, and now with a clean install of 8.0. After getting all the updates via YOU, I ran Sax2. I could pick 1600x1200, but when I started the X server to test it, the highest res was 1280x1024. Sax2 decided to totally lock up the machine (had to do a hard reset) at this point so I've quit messing w/ it for now. BTW, my card is a GeForce2 MX 400 (AGP) If I figure something out, I'll be sure to pass it on!

I always run at 1600x1200 (as I have a big montior) and have done as long as I've been using SuSE and a Nvidia graphics card (Geforce 2 GTS). I've made sure the monitor freq settings are correct for my monitor, but no luck. Anyone had similar problems? Solution? Ideas?
