>From the press release, which is slashdotted right now. Note especially that it will release on June 9th, and that SuSE will be including it in future releases of the distro. ---------------------------------- Ximian Announces Ximian Desktop 2 to Provide Complete Enterprise Desktop for Linux Major Upgrade Offers Full Application Suite, Enhanced Usability and Robust Windows Interoperability to Enable Enterprise Adoption BOSTON, MA — June 2, 2003: Ximian, Inc., the leading provider of desktop and server solutions enabling enterprise Linux adoption, today announced Ximian® Desktop 2, a major new version of its popular Linux desktop software installed by over 1,500,000 users worldwide. Ximian Desktop 2 provides a complete productivity application suite, breakthrough usability features, and seamless Windows interoperability to enable organizations to easily and affordably deploy Linux desktops in mixed Windows/Linux environments. Innovations include an intuitive interface, the Ximian Edition of OpenOffice.org for Microsoft Office file-compatible documents, one-click Windows network navigation and easy printer setup to reduce training and support costs. Ximian will demonstrate Ximian Desktop 2 publicly at the Jupiter Media Enterprise Linux Forum in Santa Clara, Calif. on June 5 and 6. The product will be available for purchase and electronic installation the week of June 9. "Our goal with Ximian Desktop 2 has been to enable enterprise customers to cost-effectively adopt and support Linux desktops," said Nat Friedman, co-founder and vice president of product development at Ximian.

Stuck at 8.2 install and ... ??
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

Nowhere to go as to the list. But after the install stopped and the light from the HD went of and the cd did not show any activity any more I had nothing else to do as playing with my keyboard. With Ctrl Alt F3 I got following information: After a lot of prelimaries, Hardware probing finished There seems to be no floppy disk Got info from cmdline Looking for a SuSE Linux CD Checking CD: /dev/hdb Found CD in /dev/hdb Set font lat 1-16.psfu (map none) Setting up localhost ..... done going for automatic install mount: /var/adm/mount/boot/root: we need a loop device mount using /dev/loop0 rmmod usb storage starting/mount/inst_sys/sbin/inst_setup yast With Ctrl Alt F4 I also get some info but due to the fact that the story runs during install and retrying I did not catch the first info but the end is a repeat over and over from following sentences: all preceded by - june 2:21:31:56 (none) kernel: hdb: cdrom_decode_staus : status 0x51{DriveReady SeekComplete Error} hdb:cdrom_decode_status: error=0x30 Last Failed Sense 0x33 ATAPI reset complete #above sentences are repeated numerous times until it stops with# end_request: I/O error, dev 03:40(hdb),sector 1148036 lost async page write due to I/O error 03:40 I am completely lost as what is causing me these troubles. Above info does not help me much. Sombody can make sense out of it? Why is the install hanging after looking for a yast file? An usb scanner is attached, two 2Meg harddisks, two floppy drives and my PII with 400mHz had no problems with former installs. Is it possible that just the Yast file is on a damaged part of the cd? How can I check this and is there another way to install? I have not enough space on my HD to download the cd. But could CD1 sbe sufficient for a basic start and do I need all the files to copy on my hd or can I sort trough the files to copy the relevant files for a minmum setup?

IP in subnet whose packets are redirected to IP in another Subnet.
by SmR 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

Hello, my Notebook is connected to my LAN via VPN-tunneled WLAN. My problem ist, that it's IP is 172.16.1.xx and the LAN Subnet is 192.168.0.0. Most Connections like SMB, HTTP are no problem because my VPN-server machine routes the traffic, but some Programs like my Print-Server Driver look for other Clients (example Print-Server) only in their Subnet (Print-Server-Driver in 172.16.1.0, other programs running on LAN machines look only at 192.168.0.0). Is there a way to fake this programs? Is it possible to create an IP in one Subnets whose packets are redirected to the IP in the other subnet (PC 192.168.0.5 searches for Servers and finds the faked IP 192.168.0.10 whose IP packets are redirected from/to 172.16.1.2 (Notebook) )? Is using ipchains the right way to solve my problems? Thanks for help Enno

Apache & php on Suse 8.2 pro.. forms on web-pages don't work
by p_s 02 Jun '03

02 Jun '03

I have running apache (1.x) on my Susebox.. The web app I have uses postgreSQL database, but for some reason the forms don't work at all. Same app also does selects to the same database and those work ok, but the forms don't seem to work... any ideas... all the machines are on same domain on LAN. I also noticed that if I try to load /application instead of pointing that it is /application/ (a directory.. to actually reach /application/index.php in it..) i get error message... where to change this settings so that if file named /application is not found directory should be tried..
