MPlayer Plugin hangs
by John Bailo 09 Jul '05

09 Jul '05

I installed the MPlayer plugin so I could play WM in Firefox. However, when it starts, it seems to load ok, but stops and says "buffering 0%". Has anybody got this working in 9.2 ?

java-1_4_2-sun vs java-1_5_0-sun
by Carlos E. R. 08 Jul '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I just noticed there are two version of java in SuSE 9.3. Why? I have the 1_4_2 version installed, ¿should I install 1_5 instead? Also, the new version has other packages, like java-1_5_0-sun-alsa and java-1_5_0-sun-jdbc, that do not exist in the previous version. The description for all rpms is exactly the same, so I can't know what they are for. Should I install all of them? Nice "descriptions"... :-( - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFCzXcPtTMYHG2NR9URAsERAJ47h1MsQEXK4qpPOGohU3+V2z0mxQCggX3L BXtRVdHf+PqkWhjs4Zzy8vI= =bYNA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

SUSE 9.3 install - TightVNC & Firewall
by Frank Bax 08 Jul '05

08 Jul '05

During 9.3 install, I selected both options for "SSH" and "Allow Remote Administration". Firewall config was setup to allow SSH, but not TightVNC - why is that?

evolution started to crash in suse 9.3
by solenoid (lists) 08 Jul '05

08 Jul '05

I've used evolution mail client for all my mail, and it worked ok for a long time. (Suse 9.3 stock, system and KDE fully updated via YOU). Now, it started to crash every time when I try to add new account, at the point where server type has to be chosen (e.g. imap)... I tried to update, with no success. Then, I renamed my evolution folder, in order to hide the user data, then uninstalled and reinstalled program via Yast, again with no success. My account does not exist anymore, so the initial wizzard pops up now every time I start the program, asking me to set up new account. It crashes at the same point as before...It happens whatever the server typ I choose, not only for imap. Is there anybody on the list to give a suggestion what to try next? Remember, program *was* working correctly. Some change in system (and it was out of evolution directory) disturbed it, and I am not aware of which one it could be. All changes to original 9.3 installation were done only by yast and YOU. TIA and best regards, solenoid

Hello gentlemen I'm geting order new server. My supplier advises to use RAID LSI LOGIC MegaRAID SATA 150-6 http://www.lsilogic.com/downloads/downloads.do?product=2529 Is this controller supported by SuSE 9.3 in install mode? Which version 32 or 64bit must I install in a case of useing Xeon2.8(800MHz)? As far as I know this is 32bit processors with 64bit extensions. Does the SuSE use this extensions in a case of 32bit install? Thanks in advance -- Best regards Alexandr R. Ogurtzoff { UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are }

Hi, I'm using SuSE 9.3 gl0:/home/zls # uname -r 2.6.11.4-21.7-smp How can I check if rtc is compiled in this kernel? Better still, if it is , how do I remove it? I need to load zaptelrtc and the README says: ************************************ zaprtc, getting zaptel timing out of your realtime clock ======================================================== Make sure that you _dont_ have rtc support compiled into your kernel! *************************************** TIA, Zoltan

Routing problem in SuseFirewall2 on Suse 9.3
by linux2＠opc.com.uy 08 Jul '05

08 Jul '05

Hello: We have a Headquarters to Branches network over frame relay with a router. The local network is 192.168.1.0/24, the branch´s networks are 192.168.x.0/24. The traffic going outside 192.168.1.0 is sent to a Suse 9.3 (the default gateway of the internal network) where is a rule in /etc/sysconfig/networks/routes indicating the frame relay router is in 192.168.1.240. >From the Suse 9.3 we can ping everywhere, but from any other point in the internal net, pings didn´t work. If we stop the firewall, everything started to run correctly. If after that, firewall is started, everything continues to work OK. So, it seems to be a broadcast-ARP failure when internal machines try to figure the physical router´s address. Firewall´s log is plenty of lines like this: - SFW2-FWDint-DROP-DEFLT IN=eth1 OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.1.243 DST=192.168.2.10 LEN=278 TOS=0x00 PRE C=0x00 TTL=127 ID=38915 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=512 SEQ=49432 - SFW2-INdmz-DROP-DEFLT IN=eth2 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.5.1 DST=192.168.5.255 LEN=248 TOS=0x00 PREC =0x00 TTL=64 ID=285 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=138 DPT=138 LEN=228
