Upgraded kernel - 10.0 won't boot
by B Stia 27 Feb '06

27 Feb '06

Hello SuSE people, Did an upgrade with apt on my 10.0 last night. Mostly KDE stuff but included a kernel upgrade. I watched as apt installed everything and saw the kernel installed mk_initrd and lilo called. It did a couple of SuSEconfigs during the process also. At the end I did another mk_initrd, lilo, and Suseconfig. Rebooted and it won't boot. Gets way into the boot process and then just hangs with a flashing cursor after either of these 3 following commands; starting powersaved (accessing ACPI events over acpid) starting SSH daemon starting SMPPPD I have no idea what to do about this. Don't even know if it was the kernel upgrade or the rpm upgrade. I booted to the DVD and tried a "Repair System" It complained about the package database, listed about 15 packages starting with /var/lib/rpm,offered to repair, said it did, gave me an error message,"Changing environment to target system was not successful", and then dumped me out of the repair process. Same condition. Then tried the "rescue" system from the cli but I couldn't mount my system. Probably don't remember how to do it and wasn't sure what I would do except to try and rebuild the rpm database. Can somebody give me a clue here? Please? Bob S.

Running Installation/Safe Install from CD gets as far as looking for hardware then gives error of no hard drive found, it does not get as far as offering to auto partition the drive.

Hello List, i'm trying to backup an old apple harddisk. After adding amiga-partition-type to the kernel my OpenSuse10.0 can read the partition table. But the content of the partitions, named as idh0 and 1, is still unreachable. Which kernel-module I have to load for this? Greetz Franz

Frontpage redesign - call for proposals.
by Peter Flodin 27 Feb '06

27 Feb '06

Are you looking at putting your personal touch on this community? Do you want to help capture new visitors to opensuse.org? And make it easier for us all to find information on the opensuse.org pages? Create your ideas of the new front page and add a link on: http://en.opensuse.org/Frontpage_redesign We also need everybody to provide constructive criticisms of the proposals. As propsosals become more mature, some translations would also be good, especially if the original is not in English. Peter 'Pflodo' Flodin.

I tried to go through bugzilla, but was said to try here. below is a letter I received today from an important french user group (sort of LUG federation). To sort out such things, The french community (and I beleive this is true for all the countries) need a contact _in Novell's local company_ I already drop a word on this subject, with no answer. Of course I can write directly to Novell France, but it would definitively be better if there where an uniform practice on this subject. I can translate the text if needed thanks jdd -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [aful] [Contact] Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 22:42:19 +0100 From: M.-A.

Voici notre réponse : * Sur la première page de http://www.aful.org/ on ne peut pas lister toutes les distributions GNU-Linux disponibles. * Mandriva est une distribution francophone de référence pour sa facilité d'utilisation par les débutants. De plus Mandriva offre des prestations de support que nous estimons susceptibles de faciliter la migration des utilisateurs vers les postes de travail équipés de logiciels libres. Il est important pour nous de montrer que les logiciels libres sont accessibles à tous et il ne faut pas qu'une première expérience avec les logiciels libres soit négative. * Nous privilégions les membres de l'AFUL (personnes physiques ou personnes morales - entreprises ou associations) ou les structures qui relaient notre communication, co-signent nos communiqués de presse ou nous aident dans nos actions. C'est le cas de Mandriva avec notamment la co-signature du communiqué de presse sur les journées Detaxe 2005 : http://www2.aful.org/sections/presse/journees-detaxe-2005 * Debian de son côté est la distribution de référence de la communauté du logiciel libre côté développeurs, de par son modèle de développement, sa philosophie et son antériorité historique dans ces domaines. * Enfin, et c'est aussi important, nous ignorions un peu jusqu'à récemment la qualité des distributions Suse et leur facilité d'utilisation pour les débutants. Aussi nous sommes prêts à modifier les pages suivantes pour autant que vous nous donniez toutes les informations nécessaires (par exemple en nous envoyant un nouveau code source XHTML) : * http://www.aful.org/presentations/ecrans.html * http://www.aful.org/faqs/minifaq Si Novell et/ou des structures liées à Suse adhéraient à l'AFUL et/ou co-signaient nos communiqués de presse, une plus grande place serait faite pour cette distribution sur notre site. > nous avons aussi mis un lien vous concernant > > http://fr.opensuse.org/Communiquer#Les_associations_francophones > C'est bien noté.
