Guttenprint 5.0?
by BandiPat 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Hey guys, Anyone using the new Guttenprint 5.0? Will it, can it replace the present libgimpprint file/s or just installed along side of, for the moment? I've only downloaded the source, but haven't looked it over, but thought maybe someone here might have bravely tried it already? I assume it will be part of openSuSE 10.2, since it is replacing gimp-print now? http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/ thanks for the info Lee -- -- KMail v1.9.4 -- KDE v3.5 -- SuSE Linux v10.1 -- Registered Linux User #225206 "Life is like a cigarette, smoke it to the butt!"

Online Update Config Errors and then ...
by Mike Dewhirst 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Here is a partial report of my experience installing SuSE 10.1 1. This was a clean install. 2. I noted during the install when I received a name lookup timeout error when it asked me to (I think) register my SuSE 10.1 with Novell for online updates and accordingly I responded "Later" ... I copied from the screen because it seemed important at the time "After running Online Update Configuration run rug refresh as root from the command line" 3. I had some screen resolution issues and have now dropped back to 1024 x 768 until I can figure out how to get 1152 x 864 4. In Yast I found Online Update Configuration and got the same name lookup timeout error two more times. Went to put the kettle on and left it trying again. Came back to the desk and it had successfully set me up with a mirror for updates. 5. Ran the rug refresh as per my handwritten reminder and it did its thang OK. 6. Opened Yast Online Update and saw a blank screen and sat for a while and meditated on the blankness. Then I noticed the [Back], [Cancel] and [Finish] buttons were enabled. This seemed strange. I knew I hadn't touched anything. Following some weird impulse I decided to cllick [Back] to see if I had missed something. It suddenly started downloading patches. I saved the session proceedings to a text file if anyone is interested. 7. I clicked [Finish] and it wrote the configuration settings to wherever it thought was appropriate. That's it for now. My next objective is to set up a samba share so I can transfer stuff between machines. I'm off to find docs. Mike

is there a way to disable kscreenlock?
by stephan beal 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Hiya! i've got a Suse 10.1 PC here on which my girlfriend and i are both continuously logged in to KDE. When switching between sessions, the KDE screen locker is almost always active (but not always - it is very inconsistent), and it is frustrating to have to enter my password 20 times per day. Is there a way to completely disable the screen locker? Many thanks in advance for any tips... -- ----- stephan(a)s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W. Watts

[SLE] yast online update aborting - SuSE 10.1

Folks, I have a strange problem after the last set up YOU updates. When I launt yast2 and clock on YOU, it immediately aborts. I cannot tell if the last update messed up or one of the updated packages was bad.

Is there a SuSE Development list?
by Samuel Partida 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Hi people, i've been searching for a suse-dev list but I can't see it. I would like to know if there are documents describing procedures on SuSE development. I'm now interested on knowing the procedure for the creation of the images that linuxrc loads (root, rescue etc...) because i'm on a project very related to SuSE, but I need to hack on the installation process. Thanks.

And an Open Source driver makes Intel succeed over the other companies! Congratulations and thank you for these information. Dominique
