Unable to play music CDs with SuSE Pro 9.2
by Kelly J. Morris 30 Jun '05

30 Jun '05

After a clean installation, I'm unable to play music CDs on my system with SuSE Pro 9.2. I have an Audigy SB0090 sound card, OPTORITECD CW5205 CD-RW drive, and a SONY DVD RW DRU-710A DVD RW drive. I can listen to web radio stations with no problem. I have tried to use gnome-cd (the default) and xmms. YaST says the sound card is running. gnome-cd appears to be working but no sound comes out of the external speakers. I'd appreciate any guidance. YIA. Kelly -- Kelly J.

I have recently been encountering some strange problems on a SUSE SLES 8 system. One symptom is that my backups are taking much longer to complete. I have also recently found the following messages in /var/adm/messages. I would appreciate any help that is available. Jun 30 08:49:16 linux kernel: i8253 count too high! resetting..

3D/GL Nvidia Problem (weird)
by Andrei Verovski (aka MacGuru) 30 Jun '05

30 Jun '05

Hi, I have SuSE 9.3 with nVidia driver 7167 succesfully installed with SuSE fetchnvidia script. I have, of course, reconfigured X with SAX to enable 3D support. However, 3DDiag gives the following: Verifying driver installation: nvidia ... done. Tests for X.Org configuration: Config File /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... done. Driver ... done. Extensions ... done. Options ... done. Checking GL/GLU/glut runtime configuration: GL/GLU ... done (package xorg-x11-Mesa) glut ... done (package freeglut) It seems like my system uses MESA instead of nVidia GLX. I have tried to reinstall kernel, nvidia driver again, but it did not helped. I am trying to run Command&Conquer Generals Zero Hour, and it is hell slow (absolutely non-usable, to say precisely) without real hardware 3D support. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s) Andrei

Mythtv

Hi, I'm trying to build a PVR using a Pundit-R, the hauppauge pvr-350 and SuSE 9.3 The card can tune channels, the remote works, but I can't use the tvout. The card is well supported through the ivtv driver, although it's not supported by SuSE, they provide the rpm packages. To enable the tvout function of my pvr-350 I need to load a kernel module named "saa7127" with some parameters. The problems is that some parameters doesn't work. For example: List of supported parameters: gardenia:~ # modinfo saa7127 filename: /lib/modules/2.6.11.4-20a-default/extra/saa7127.ko description: Philips SAA7127 video encoder driver author: Roy Bulter license: GPL vermagic: 2.6.11.4-20a-default 586 REGPARM gcc-3.3 depends: i2c-core srcversion: 4E514F920A6EE78E468B895 parm: test_image:test_image (0-1) (int) parm: debug:debug level (0-2) (int) parm: force:List of adapter,address pairs to boldly assume to be present (array of short) parm: ignore_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr triples not to scan (array of short) parm: ignore:List of adapter,address pairs not to scan (array of short) parm: probe_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr triples to scan additionally (array of short) parm: probe:List of adapter,address pairs to scan additionally (array of short) parm: i2c_enable:which 150/350 cards to activate the saa7127, conflicts with cx25840 or pvr150 (1-8i) Loading the module without parameters works: modprobe saa7127 But loading the module with the test_image as parm fails: gardenia:~ # modprobe saa7127 test_image=1 FATAL: Error inserting saa7127 (/lib/modules/2.6.11.4-20a-default/extra/saa7127.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) In dmesg: saa7127: unsupported module, tainting kernel. saa7127: Unknown parameter `test_image' saa7127: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones load_module: err 0xfffffffe (dont worry) Why if the parameter is correct the module can't be loaded? Can someone try to load it with the same parameter and see if it loads correctly? Has anyone configured mythtv with suse 9.3? Thanks! -- Oscar Curero - Linux user: 306877 -- GPG keyID: 0xE0EA0B24 --

Hi! Exists any installer tool in SuSE like apt-get or yum (fedora)? I would like to use other package repositories for example packman, not only suse mirrors. Thanks! Bye TesterLnx

Can the 9.1 installer resize an NTFS partition?
by Paul W. Abrahams 30 Jun '05

30 Jun '05

I just attempted to install SuSE 9.1 on my new Dell Inspiron 1000 laptop. When I got to the point of trying to resize the Windows partition (NTFS), I was prevented from doing so because it was mounted. So I removed the mount point and tried again. This time the resize operation did nothing -- no response when I pressed Alt-S. So I tried using a custom partition, and I got a message to the effect that this type of Windows partition could not be resized. The odd thing here is that several people reported in an earlier thread on this subject that they succeeded in resizing the NTFS partition. So I'm wondering why I got a different result than they did. Fortunately I have a way around it by using Partition Manager, but it would be nice if I could use the provided SuSE tools without having to resort to that. Paul

pppd options error
by Regis Matejcik 30 Jun '05

30 Jun '05

Everything seems to work fine on this new install of SuSE professional 9.2 - except.... Dial up will not work. I installed a specifically linux compatible modem. It shows up as configured in Yast, and the Kinternet icon is in the system tray. When I click the icon it momentarily shows a little connecting graphic then returns to normal. The log output shows: Status is: disconnected trying to connect to smpppd connect to smppd Status is: disconnected Status is: connecting Status is: disconnected pppd[0] died: pppd options error (exit code 2) The pppd man pages say that the exit code 2 is "An error was detected in processing the options given such as two mutually exclusive options." I've checked the modem configuration options, and they appear to be fine. Are there options to be set in a config file for pppd? All comments are appreciated, Regis Matejcik
