Audacity not run
by Sunny 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

Hi, I'm running Suse 9.1. When I try to start Audacity, it fails with these errors: sunny@linux:~> audacity (audacity:8983): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkaccellabel.c: line 214 (gtk_accel_label_new): assertion `string != NULL' failed (audacity:8983): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkmisc.c: line 211 (gtk_misc_set_alignment): assertion `GTK_IS_MISC (misc)' failed (audacity:8983): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkcontainer.c: line 949 (gtk_container_add): assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed (audacity:8983): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkaccellabel.c: line 400 (gtk_accel_label_set_accel_widget): assertion `GTK_IS_ACCEL_LABEL (accel_label)' failed Segmentation fault So, I googled for it, but no resolution so far. I have ran it in debugger, so I'm attaching more info. Unfortunately I can not make use of that info :( Here is the output of the debugger: sunny@linux:~> gdb /usr/bin/audacity GNU gdb 6.2.1 Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Hi Allen, You're over discounting the incredible amount of work RedHat has contributed back to the community in many open source projects especially the kernel. The Suse products of today owe some thanks to Red Hat. Admitting this takes nothing away from Suse. Sean

External USB Harddisk ? Suse 9.2 freezes
by cbeynon＠bluewin.ch 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

Hi I?m using an external Harddisk (Western Digital External Storage 160 GB USB 2.0), formated with FAT, under Suse 9.2. The disk is recognized and mounted without problem. When I copy or delete a large amount of files to/from the external disk, the system freezes completly after 30 to 60 seconds (not constant). Copying/deleting individual files is not a problem. The external disk works perfectly under windows XP. Is anybody using the same disk without problem? Any Ideas? Thank you - Christopher

postfix and php on suse 9.1
by Chris W 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

I recently installed SUSE 9.1 and my php script that sent mail no longer works. It works fine on an suse 9.0 box. I was wondering if anyone can give me a hint as to what to look for to fix this. I understand there is some error in the PHP config that needs to be fixed. Can someone tell me where that config error is? Below is some of my error log from a send attempt. Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/pickup[30613]: 1EF48D587: uid=30 from=<wwwrun> Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/cleanup[31469]: 1EF48D587: message-id=<20041113175034.1EF48D587(a)aopro.com> Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/cleanup[31469]: 1EF48D587: to=<unknown>, relay=none, delay=0, status=bounced (No recipients specified) Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/cleanup[31473]: 2CA3DD5AF: message-id=<20041113175034.2CA3DD5AF(a)aopro.com> Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/qmgr[3547]: 2CA3DD5AF: from=<>, size=1833, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/local[31474]: 2CA3DD5AF: to=<root(a)aopro.com>, orig_to=<wwwrun(a)aopro.com>, relay=local, delay=0, status=sent (delivered to mailbox) Nov 13 11:50:34 WebServer postfix/qmgr[3547]: 2CA3DD5AF: removed Here is the simple mail script that I am using to test <?php $message = "This is a Test Message "; mail('1qazse4(a)cox.net', "test message", $message); ?> <HTML><BODY> Message sent. </BODY></HTML> Thanks for the help. -- Chris W Not getting the gifts you want?

SuSE 9.2, Xandros and WinXP
by Donn Washburn 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

Hey Group; A Linux friend has a 3 partition WinXP=hda1, /boot=hda2, Xandros=hda5 and SuSE 9.2=hda6. Each hda5 and hda6 are 30Gigs with /boot about 500 meg. (plus a swap=hda3 and /hda7 is spare) The problem is I have tried about every combination of hd#,# and can not get Xandros to boot with grub from SuSE9.2 Windows and SuSE9.2 boot just fine. However, Xandros which has its /boot on /dev/hda5 fails to boot. Has anyone seen a similar problem? menu.lst is on SuSE9.2=hda6/boot/grub. -- 73 de Donn Washburn __" http://www.hal-pc.org/~n5xwb " Ham Callsign N5XWB / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 307 Savoy St. / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / Sugar Land, TX 77478 /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ LL# 1.281.242.3256 Dump Microsoft Software - Stop virus email Email: n5xwb(a)hal-pc.org " http://counter.li.org " #279316

SuSEfirewall2 forwarding
by Hans du Plooy 01 Dec '04

01 Dec '04

Hi all, On a gateway I had SUSE 9.1 with SuSEfirewall2 forwarding terminal services and web traffic to a windows server behind it. The box developed hardware problems, and I replaced it with a different machine running SUSE 9.2. I noticed that /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 had some changes so I went through it by hand and set made sure all the options that exist in both are the same. The port forwarding part I copied and pasted directly from the old file to the new and looks like this: FW_FORWARD_MASQ="0/0,192.168.16.2,tcp,3389 0/0,192.168.16.2,udp,3389 0/0,192.168.16.2,tcp,80 0/0,192.168.16.2,tcp,443" when I try to open remote destkop to the windows box, it times out, and in the firewall logs I see this: Dec 1 10:07:17 mpost kernel: SFW2-FWDext-ACC-REVMASQ IN=eth1 OUT=eth0 SRC=165.146.110.238 DST=192.168.16.2 LEN=44 TOS=0x08 PREC=0x00 TTL=56 ID=17545 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=4686 DPT=80 WINDOW=5808 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (02040584) Does this mean that the forwarding does in fact work and that the windows box is not accepting or responding properly, or is my firewall not behaving as it should?

It got into the thread subject, because someone else was getting messages marked that way, and he then replied with it still in the subject. Apparently the problem was caused by spamassassin, at his ISP. It has since been corrected.
