problems with DHCP and Samba
by KI 31 Jan '04

31 Jan '04

Hi! I started to use Suse 9.0 a few weeks ago. I try to build up a simple network in my office with Suse as the file server (with Samba) and WinXP clients. For the first time, I used my Ericsson ADSL modem/router, which is also an DHCP/DNS server and the whole network was working. Then I tried to use the network without the ADSL modem/router, but I was not able to reach the network at all. I tried to set up the DHCP server in Suse, I did it, and it seemed to be working, but I still was not able to reach the network. I was thinking about setting up the named server, but I am not sure, if it was the reason of the problem or not. The network is still not working... Where could I find some solution? Best regards: KI

(This will set you back approx $50 US, or you can find them used for less.)

annoying kscd pop-up
by Alex Angerhofer 31 Jan '04

31 Jan '04

Whenever I put an audio cd in my CDROM kscd pops up. I find this annoying as I don't always want to use it. This seems to be a behavior that the system has since installing 9.0. Is there a place in kde where this can be regulated? Thanks for any pointers, ALex.

SuSE 9.0 support for SATA sil3114
by Martin Cordova 31 Jan '04

31 Jan '04

Does anyone know where can I find a driver for the SATA controller Silicon Image 3114. This is a very popular controller, but SuSE 9.0 Pro can't detect the SATA harddisk using this controller. VIA is OK, but no luck with sil3114. Any help will be very appreciated. Regards, Martin _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

MOBO recommendation?
by Chris Carlen 31 Jan '04

31 Jan '04

Id like to build a new system, probably with AMD. I usually get Asus boards, but am open to others as I have had increasing failures with Asus boards. Also, I'd like to use SATA in the near future, so one that will have a compatible SATA controller would be good. I prefer no integrated sound, LAN, and or course video. Comments appreciated. -- _____________________ Christopher R. Carlen crobc(a)earthlink.net Suse 8.1 Linux 2.4.19

Mozilla 1.6 versus Mozilla 1.4
by John Boyle 31 Jan '04

31 Jan '04

To All: First of all what real difference is there between the two? Does that difference make enough to go through the trouble of installing? Has anyone asked SuSe-Novell if they are going to update Mozilla as part of their Linux? :-)

One in "/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf" the other in "/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf" "/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf" is in the Root Directory of postgres on my system so that's the one the system was using. I thought the system was using the other one: "/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf", the only one I knew about. Thank you for helping me figure it out, Jerome

Mouse problem
by Greg Dickinson 30 Jan '04

30 Jan '04

Hello All, I have an HP Pavillion 6355 upon which I have installed SuSE 8.1. Everything goes fine during install, but when I boot up I no longer have a mouse. The cursor won't move at all and none of the mouse buttons click on anything. I have tried the original PS/2 mouse, a Logitech 3 button serial mouse and an USB mouse. None work. Can someone please help me out here? I am not a newbie to Linux and I have installed this same disks on a Gateway Machine at work. Everything works fine there. You can email me at bassman(a)sdf.lonestar.org or at Gregory.Dickinson(a)colorado.edu.
