SuSE support for shfs? lufs?
by Jerry Westrick 20 Nov '04

20 Nov '04

Hello all... I really could use shfs in my development environment, if it is stable, and would not break after each YOU kernel update. Does anyone have any experience with shfs? Is it stable? Can I get rpms? From SUSE? if not how can I go about compiling it so that it don't break with each kernel update? Thx Jerry

9.2 Weird monitor problem
by Joe Polk 20 Nov '04

20 Nov '04

I have a TFT450 Flat Panel and occassionally I get squiggly-screen. It seems to happen when I come out of YaST. Sometimes it will quit after a while. It looks like it doesn't like the refresh rate, to be honest. But for 1024 I can't change it, it's locked on 75 though somehow it did read 71 once. I've used this monitor since 9.0. I'm stumped. -- <<JAV>>

As many others I start thinking to change Linux distro. Eight years ago when i installed my first SuSE was less problems than now. Every day new problems: today new one with mozilla which doesn't want to open some web pages (konqueror does) - www.fchn.org for example. Real Player still doesn't work if i run as user, still xset: bad font path element (#72), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax I have everything same as before but... ...and today some new (i didn;t change nothing): ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:563:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken pipe ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:563:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken pipe ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:563:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken pipe kmix: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such device kmix: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such device kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::insertKAccel( kaccel = 0x82463f0 ): KAccel object already contains an action name "del" kmix: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such device kmix: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such device ...and to the end: whenever i sent an email to suse-linux-e(a)suse.com my email come or it doesn;t after one, two hours.

RE: [SLE] Cups, router with DHCP problem
by Khanh Tran 20 Nov '04

Well, you can still use fixed IPs on all the computers if you like, but I'd suggest at least putting a fixed IP on the CUPS server. Some routers even have the ability to assign the same IP to a DHCP client every time, essentially making it fixed.

I bought the router so I did not have to leave the server with the dsl connection on all the time.

log files for Kinternet
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 20 Nov '04

20 Nov '04

Running SuSE 9.1 with KMail 3.3. Having run in a small problem with kinternet I would like to look at or to make a logfile where I can see what is going wrong everytime I want to connect to my ISP or the internet. Kinternet has the possibility to show a log file which they call "the complete log". What I am looking for is not part of that log. Problem: Using KMail with the first connection with my ISP via dial up after a certain wait I get the info "could not connect to host xyz" Using Konqueror I get a "The requested URL was not found on this server." If I confirm the error message in KMail or reload the URL in Konqueror I am in business. What I want to catch in a logfile is the conversation between my pppd and my ISP. Looked into man pppd and such but need now a solution in plain English.

Umounting HD

Hi all, I have just installed SuSE 9.1 (waiting for 9.2) with KDE 3.2 desktop manager. Once I mounted a device it is impossible to umount it from KDE. I have to umount the device by command line umount -l /dev/device (umount -f fails). Any hint? Topic already discussed? Saludos emilio

Hi. I have a such webcam and SuSE 9.0. this cam worked fine with SuSE 8.2, but in 9.0 doesn't work. in SuSE 8.0 there was a module named ov518_decomp this module don't exist in 9.0. the /proc/bus/usb/info shows information about the cam, and the module ov511 seems to load without errors, but xawtv claims that not /dev/video0 available. permisions for /dev/video* gandalf:/usr/src # ll /dev/video* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2004-08-31 00:47 /dev/video -> video0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root video 81, 0 2003-10-02 22:46 /dev/video0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root video 81, 1 2003-10-02 22:46 /dev/video1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 171, 16 2003-10-02 22:46 /dev/video1394 crw-rw-rw- 1 root video 81, 2 2003-10-02 22:46 /dev/video2 crw-rw-rw- 1 root video 81, 3 2003-10-02 22:46 /dev/video3 output for xawtv gandalf:/usr/src # xawtv This is xawtv-3.88, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.21-243-athlon) can't open /dev/video0: Function not implemented v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway v4l2: open /dev/video0: Función no implementada v4l2: open /dev/video0: Función no implementada v4l: open /dev/video0: Función no implementada no video grabber device available output fo lsmod gandalf:/usr/src # lsmod Module Size Used by Not tainted ov511 76800 0 pwc 44656 0 (unused) i2c-algo-bit 7944 0 i2c-core 15492 0 [i2c-algo-bit] snd-pcm-oss 49728 0 (autoclean) snd-mixer-oss 15576 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss] nls_iso8859-1 2844 0 (autoclean) appletalk 22124 1 (autoclean) ax25 45556 1 (autoclean) ipx 18116 1 (autoclean) videodev 6272 1 (autoclean) [ov511 pwc] usbserial 20924 0 (autoclean) (unused) parport_pc 28648 1 (autoclean) lp 6304 1 (autoclean) parport 25608 1 (autoclean) [parport_pc lp] nfsd 83568 4 (autoclean) isa-pnp 32712 0 (unused) ipt_TCPMSS 2392 1 (autoclean) ipt_TOS 1048 9 (autoclean) ipt_state 568 58 (autoclean) ipt_LOG 3384 62 (autoclean) powernow-k7 4033 0 (unused) snd-ali5451 14308 1 snd-pcm 74148 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-ali5451] snd-page-alloc 6676 0 [snd-pcm] thermal 6180 0 (unused) snd-timer 17024 0 [snd-pcm] processor 8312 0 [thermal] snd-ac97-codec 45400 0 [snd-ali5451] fan 1472 0 (unused) button 2380 0 (unused) snd 40388 1 [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-ali5451 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-ac97-codec] battery 5600 0 (unused) soundcore 3940 0 [snd] ac 1696 0 (unused) ds 7212 1 yenta_socket 10784 1 pcmcia_core 47328 0 [ds yenta_socket] st 29680 0 (autoclean) (unused) sr_mod 14616 0 (autoclean) sg 35232 0 (autoclean) keybdev 2156 0 (unused) mousedev 4340 0 (unused) joydev 5440 0 (unused) evdev 3840 0 input 3488 0 [keybdev mousedev joydev evdev] usb-ohci 20104 0 (unused) usbcore 64332 1 [ov511 pwc usbserial usb-ohci] raw1394 18288 0 (unused) ieee1394 188260 0 [raw1394] af_packet 13192 1 (autoclean) 8139cp 14344 1 mii 2640 0 [8139cp] ip6t_LOG 3736 2 (autoclean) ip6t_REJECT 1528 3 (autoclean) ip6table_mangle 2744 0 (autoclean) (unused) ipt_REJECT 3288 3 (autoclean) iptable_mangle 2168 1 (autoclean) iptable_filter 1708 1 (autoclean) ip_nat_ftp 2992 0 (unused) iptable_nat 16366 1 [ip_nat_ftp] ip_conntrack_ftp 3920 1 ip_conntrack 18084 3 [ipt_state ip_nat_ftp iptable_nat ip_conntrack_ftp] ip_tables 11328 10 [ipt_TCPMSS ipt_TOS ipt_state ipt_LOG ipt_REJECT iptable_mangle iptable_filter iptable_nat] ip6table_filter 1804 1 (autoclean) ip6_tables 12224 4 [ip6t_LOG ip6t_REJECT ip6table_mangle ip6table_filter] ipv6 227456 -1 (autoclean) [ip6t_REJECT] key 70456 0 (autoclean) [ipv6] ide-scsi 11056 0 scsi_mod 101236 4 [st sr_mod sg ide-scsi] ide-cd 32416 0 cdrom 29216 0 [sr_mod ide-cd] lvm-mod 65508 0 (autoclean) ext3 88552 5 jbd 52480 5 [ext3] any help appreciated Greetings.
