Trash Broke on 3.4
by Steven Pasternak 01 Jul '05

01 Jul '05

Hi! I use SUSE 9.3 kde 3.4.0, and my trash protocol broke. When I say 'move to trash', the move window freezes, and konqueror pretends to be loading forever when I go to trash:/. I deleted ~/.kde/share/config/trashrc, but it didn't help. How do I fix this? Thanks! -Steven

setting multiple user id to 0 (zero) is bad ! Why?
by Chadley Wilson 01 Jul '05

Greetings, Friends, I am in a situation with my one clients who use - (Yes that one again!!), uucp. Now their previous techies set all the user id's for the system to 0 (zero) Oh! and all the GID's as well. Now I have come in and had to fix this, but I get resistance. I have only one good reason why not to right now, with uucp on one site all the files are transfered but not removed from the queue, only when I set the user id to 14 (IIRC) and the GID to 512, and of course changed all the on the relevant configs and files, would it clean the remote queue. This reason however has been flawed as we have other sites that work properly with all the UID's and GID's set to 0 (zero). I need more reasons, explaining how this affects the system integrity, and functionality, the trick here is they don't give two hoots about the security aspect. So to win my case professionally and cleverly, I ask for real opinions and reasons. Could you please assist. -- -- Chadley Wilson Production Line Superintendant Pinnacle Micro Manufacturers of Proline Computers ==================================== Exercise freedom, Use LINUX =====================================

pcHDTV HD-3000
by Donn Washburn 01 Jul '05

01 Jul '05

Hello; I have a temporary loan on a pcHDTV HD-3000 HD Tv card. Running SuSE 9.3 is it possible and/or worth the effort to setup? It does come with a Linux Software disc. Even better there is NO support disc for Windblows. -- 73 de Donn Washburn Hpage: " http://www.hal-pc.org/~n5xwb " Ham Callsign N5XWB Email: " n5xwb(a)hal-pc.org " 307 Savoy St. HAMs: " n5xwb(a)arrl.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador LL# 1.281.242.3256 " http://counter.li.org " #279316

Azureus UDP port 6881
by Paul Cartwright 01 Jul '05

01 Jul '05

I am trying to run Azureus, and I got a new message saying I need to open UDP port 6881 for this to work correctly. Is this a good idea ? If so, how do I enable port 6881 ? Under YaST firewall, I can't find any config area to add ports. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 X-Request-PGP: http://home.comcast.net/~p.cartwright/wsb/key.asc
