Works smooth as silk if I stop Setiathome, but remains unusuable if seti or anything cpu intensive is running. This in itself isn't so bad, except that I didn't have this problem under 8.1 and 8.0, where I had seti runing with nice=1 all the time and OOo was working smoothly. Just trying to understand this Thanks Hans

Permissions and K3b
by Kenneth Payne 19 Dec '03

19 Dec '03

Hi - I can't burn CD's in k3b as a user. I can burn successfully as root. It's obviously a permissions problem but I can't see where. If I look at k3b's error log it seems to be complaining about not having permissions for /dev/pg1 but I've set every permission possible on this device file but still I get the same error. Here's some details k3b gives the device as Samsung cd-r/rw sw-216b /dev/sr0 (0,1,0) interface generic scsi write modes sao, tao, raw raw/r96r permissions set are lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2003-10-29 22:28 /dev/cdrecorder -> sr0 brw-rw-rw- 1 root disk 11, 0 2003-09-23 18:59 /dev/sr0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root disk 21, 0 2003-09-23 18:59 /dev/sg0 crwxrwxrwx 1 root disk 97, 1 2003-09-23 19:01 /dev/pg1 Can anyone tell me what else I have to set? Best wishes - Ken

wine capi dependency needed?

Does anyone know why the latest wine rpm for suse9 has a dependency to libcapi20.so.2? It now means that capi4linux and i4l-base must be installed while I just remove them as I don't use isdn anymore. linux01:8 21:43:33 /ftp/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/9.0-i386/RPMS.wine $ diff /usr/tmp/rbos/wine-20031016 /usr/tmp/rbos/wine-20031118 --- /usr/tmp/rbos/wine-20031016 2003-11-20 21:43:33.000000000 +0100 +++ /usr/tmp/rbos/wine-20031118 2003-11-20 21:43:22.000000000 +0100 @@ -24,6 +24,7 @@ libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3) +libcapi20.so.2 -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless

Hi Folks, I can't seem to get any of the Screen Savers to start in Gnome, though they are all working in KDE... or are they only for KDE? They are in the Gnome menu:system Screen Savers. Thanks (i know they aren't so important)

CPU busy (again)
by Bill Wisse 04 Dec '03

04 Dec '03

Haia I noticed this morning on my SUSE 9.0 box that the CPU was busy ( around 40 to 50%) even when no program was running. I used >>TOP>> to check and System Monitor but there was no indication that a program was occupying the CPU. Is there another way to find out what is using the CPU? Two things I have done in the last days: I upgraded the kernel with the patch on "YOU". I printed some photo's on my HP2110 printer. Not sure if this is of any help but I put it here anyway. Can anybody suggest what to do? TIA. -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."

Which Cable/DSL Firewall?
by Stanley Keymer 03 Dec '03

03 Dec '03

On my Home network I am thinking of installing a Cable router/firewall. I have looked at the D-Link 604 and also the Linksys BEFsx41. Was wondering if anyone has had any experiences with these. And would they recomend them or not. And lost but not least, do they work well with Linux. I know they are WebBased configured. which should be OK with Linux. What iI need is: - Firewall protection - URL filtering, Controlled blocking for example Java, ActiveX etc - IPSec and PPTP - Logging - DHCP Server - NTP support - VPN Thanks Stanley
