In other words : at this moment there is not yet KDE 3.1.4 for Suse 8.2 available. Anyone does know how can we notice SuSE about this ? Is anyone from suse reading this mailing list ? stefan --- Mads Martin Joergensen <mmj(a)panther.mmj.dk> wrote: * Ben Rosenberg <ben(a)whack.org> [Sep 25. 2003 03:11]: > Wow!

NIS automounter
by fsanta 25 Sep '03

25 Sep '03

When a user logs on they request a mount from the server. Where is that mount? Is it physically copied to the client or are bits of it it NFS'd from the server each time he does something with it or is there a link to it on his machine. . .? We've been getting some very slow progress just recently, with open office under kde and especially as the file count grows on the server. SuSE 8.2. PIV server with 1024Mb and 40Gb IDE. 18 off PII 450 clients. 3 daisy chained switches. Any bottlneck help much appreciated. Steve.

Hi guys, Im confused. So once again: Are the new KDE packages from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.2/ good or not ? Still under 'base' there is qt3.1.2 instead of 3.2.1 ! I think they should provide the new qt library under base too ! Right ? stefan --- Jose Thadeu Cavalcante <thadeurj(a)terra.com.br> wrote: I found a qt3-3.2.1 rpm in ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/adrian/beta1 Thank you Adrian -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com

reiserfs prob after YOU update
by oguz eren 25 Sep '03

25 Sep '03

Hi, Yesterday i used YOU on my SuSE 8.2 Prof.Ed. for the first time. I installed patches without any problem. But since then i can't boot my laptop anymore. The last part of boot msgs are as follows: ---begin--- Loading module reiserfs... Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB/kernel/fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.o reiserfs: found format "3.6" with standard journal reiserfs: enabling write barrier flush mode reiserfs: using ordered data mode reiserfs: checking transaction log (ide0(3,2)) for (ide0(3,2)) Using r5 hash to sort names vs-7000: search_by_entry_key: search_by_key returned item position == 0<4>zam-7001: io error in reiserfs_find_entry ---end--- I guess it's sth with the kernel patch, but i don't know how to solve it. I can boot my laptop on safe mode, or with knoppix. Any help is appreciated, espacially the detailed ones, since i'm not a good shell-user :-)

xine
by Tom Allison 25 Sep '03

I was trying to run xine and it seems that it isn't configured from the install. Furthermore, there is not xine-config script as mentioned in the docs. So what are you supposed to do in order to get xine running?

Newbie -- New Motherboard -- this was easy
by mark bannister 25 Sep '03

25 Sep '03

My motherboard just went on my new SuSE 8.2 setup. Since this is my file server I had to get it up running quickly so I ran out and bought a new Asus P4P80-VM motherboard, new P4 chip, and new memory. Put it all back together, booted from the hard disk and it all came up nicely. KDE detected new video, reconfigured 1Gig NIC (OK it hung there but restarted and was happy), found new IDE controller but Yast2 decided it couldn't configure anything. This is great!!!! Now, should I reinstall SuSE from scratch just to make sure everything is kosher? I had a few warnings at startup but they were minor things like the extra parallel port. If I do reinstall SuSE I of course want to keep all my configuration settings for Samba, Cups, etc. What's the best way to do this besides saving off each config file one by one? Any advice would be great. Thanks Mark B.

nVidia
by Fred A. Miller 25 Sep '03

The latest nVidia driver that one is to install from nVidia after the kernel update just posted and installed by YOU, is NOT usable and WON'T install!! I hope SuSE is working on this, as 3D is "GONE" because of this error. Some have very slow systems now. Fred -- Planet Earth - a subsidiary of Microsoft®.

Hi, For you digital camera users out there I have put a new libgphoto2 2.1.2 RPM on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/meissner/gphoto/2.1.2/8.2/ This brings especially Canon and PTP drivers up to a good working state, so if you had problems with those cameras, feel free to try. Ciao, Marcus

daisy chain and krells
by fsanta 25 Sep '03

25 Sep '03

Krells no problem. Forgot about that one! You can change screen res on the fly under X. It's ctrl+alt +or- in the numeric keypad. Here is the reply to the switches: The ideal setup with switches is to have one as the "master" that the other switches and servers plug into. This should also be the best switch that you can afford.
