[opensuse] FreeNX & Gnome
by Greg Freemyer 29 Dec '06

29 Dec '06

All, I want to get gnome working with NXserver and the FreeNX client. I'm not sure what I need to do but I have tried just selecting Gnome in the FreeNX config. With that setting when I try to login I get a large black window with a smaller white portion in the upper left corner. The white portion is about 1/9 of the overall screen. Any ideas?

[opensuse] easy kde/gnome/mono questions
by Greg Freemyer 29 Dec '06

29 Dec '06

All, I've been using SuSE with KDE for years but I don't really do any sophisticated GUI interaction. I pretty much just fire up a few terminal sessions and do my work from the command line. I now want to start experimenting with writing a Mono application. I get the impression that means I should switch to Gnome. Correct? If so, how do I do that? (I don't care about current settings / config / etc.) I can create a new login account if that would be easier. And then are there any special packages I should be sure to install? As a first step I just want to get the HelloWorld app they have to compile and run. http://www.mono-project.com/GtkSharp:_Hello_World Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Diff. between OpenSuSE and SuSE Linux Enterprise
by Mário Gamito 29 Dec '06

29 Dec '06

Hi, For years i was a SuSE Linux user, somewhere between 5.3 and 9.0, i believe. Then, i changed for reasons that doesn't matter now. I'm changing jobs and i'm going to work on Enterprise Linux. I'm already downloading OpenSuSE too see hop it goes now. My questions is what are the differences between OpenSuSE and SuSE Enterprise Linux ? Is something like RHEL/Fedora ?

[opensuse] DHCP reserved addresses
by James Knott 28 Dec '06

One nice feature that we could use in Yast, is a method to easily configure DHCP reserved addresses. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

You will find a lot of examples for your own perfect dhcp.conf. Some hours on a rainy day and you will have a working configuration an you will have learned a lot about dhcp and networks. In my opion it is not possible to build an easy to use tool for all combinations of possible configurations. ~~~~~~ Webmin is a pretty good tool for setting up DHCP. http://www.webmin.com ~James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 10.2 will not install
by Aaron Bridge 28 Dec '06

28 Dec '06

I have tried downloading using http, ftp, bittorrent, and get right. The downloads complete, but the install hangs. After the kernel loads the last thing that is printed to the screen is: NET: Registered protocol family 2 Then the curser just blinks under that. I even made a boot.iso disk, which had the correct checksum, and still had the problem. I am using a PIII with 512mb RAM. Downloading the i386 files. To be sure I didn't have a hardware problem I reloaded 10.1 without a problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
