Mic doesn't work
by DC 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Can anyone tell me how to get a microphone to work in SuSE 8.0 or 8.1? I have two machines each with integrated sound and I cannot get a mic to work on either system. I'll admit I am totally ignorant when it comes to mm. I have attached a .png screenshot of the hardware info from YAST2. Any help will be appreciated. - -- D.C.

SuSE support
by Gedi 26 Feb '03

Does anyone else find SuSE support to be a waste of time or is it just me. Out of the 10 or so questions I have mailed, I have only ever had a reply to 1 of them.

Correct me if I am wrong, but Kylix has nothing to do with C++.

Do you use sftp in konqueror?
by John Lamb 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

sftp works in konqueror, but... From home (ISDN) I can download from work but downloading fails for anything over about 60Kb. Command line sftp has no problems. Both machines are using SuSE 8.0. Any suggestions to make life more convenient? -- JDL

Maintaining a local install/YOU mirror
by Tom Emerson 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

I've just finished installing yet another computer which in all likelihood will replace my current server [just have "a few more tweaks" to make] As this one has LOTS more disc space than my current server, I'm thinking of making it a source for future installs. From what I've read here, I *think* I just need to copy all of the CD's to "some location" that can be shared somehow [samba/nfs/ftp] I'm thinking I should also mirror the YOU site so that in addition to installing new systems, I can immediately update them to be "current" as well. I wonder, however, if I were to place the "update" files from the YOU server in the same location as they were originally on the CD, would the "installation" process automatically install the latest version, thus cutting out the extra "update immediately" step? [or am I smoking something you can't buy at the corner drugstore?] Also, during the copy, a few files failed to read from the CD -- some were trivial [like the DOS utilities on the first CD] others were more significant [like k_smp...] In theory, I should be able to download the current version(s) from the suse site to replace those that couldn't be copied locally, right? [I've done enough installs with this set of CD's that scratches are a very good possibility, hence it is not surprising to see some unreadable files...] Is it possible to "rsynch" the ftp directory that SuSE provides as an installation point with what I've just copied to get those files? Likewise, could/should I rsynch the "patch" or "new version" files from the YOU servers over their originals, or should I try to set up the "patch" files as another area of the install directory? [if I'm not making sense, I'll blame it on having a cold...] -- Yet another Blog: http://osnut.homelinux.net

Network connection
by Oliver Ob 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

Given an example network of for instance 3 computers: 192.168.17.64 ---- 192.168.17.65 ------- 192.168.17.67 A B C Question #1: ------------ #A uses #C as router for wvdial+internet -> works fine #B imports NFS shares from #C -> works fine also But: #B does not see, nor ping #A properly. Error is as follows: Ping........ >From 192.168.17.65: icmp_seq=x Destination Host is Unreachable But why? #A and #C DO see each other without problems It is one and the same cable! If it WERE the cable, #A and #C would also report errors. What logs or so do you need to help me? Where should I take a look?

Versapoint RF Keyboard
by Robert Robinson 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

Has anyone has any success using the Interlink Electronics Versapoint RF keyboard ? It uses radio frequency transmission from a keyboard to a USB connected receiver. There is no response to pointer commands. "Enter" functions as if the command has been typed 4-5 times. Linux seems to be receiving input data, but the codes may be garbled. Robert Robinson
