Where does my renamed output go if I choose to remove the original image on a batch resize? Can't find it in any predictable location. 10.1 Cheers, Steve.

[opensuse] can't update using zmd
by Marc-Andre Vallee 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Hi, I've update my suse pro 9.3 to opensuse 10, then 10.1 now, with 10.1, I can't get online updates anymore. The zen tray wan't showing anything, until I found the solution on opensuse.org now, it shows me 294 updates todo, but fails when attemting to resolv dependecies saying : Establishing script:libzypp-patch-zmdrestart.sh-2-1533-1.noarch[SUSE-Linux-10.1-Updates] This would invalidate script:libzypp-patch-zmdrestart.sh-2-1533-1.noarch[SUSE-Linux-10.1-Updates]. Marking this resolution attempt as invalid. I think the problem is related to librairies incorrectly updated, but how to solve this ? rpm -aq | grep libz libzypp-zmd-backend-7.1.1.0-40 libzio-0.1-15 libzypp-0.0.8-154 Thanks Marc Marc-Andre Vallee, CLE9, CLE, CLP, CNA Conseiller, Integration et technologies Complys technologies inc.

Cuz the "Create New-" option on the right click menu> in Konqueror is disabled.> I didn't follow this thread from the beginning so I apologies if this has already been talked about, but how about trying to create a file in a terminal. The reason I'm asking is because I had a similar problem with a directory. I'm not able to create new file or new directories in it, but has no problem with any subdirectories of it. I'm also able to copy existing files into that directory, but not create new. Wonder if the problem you're having is the same as mine.xz _________________________________________________________________ Share your special moments by uploading 500 photos per month to Windows Live Spaces http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwsp0070000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://ww…

firefox starts 2 times after upgrade
by Cor van Haastregt 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Hi all, I am using SuSE 9.3. Today i updated firefox from 1.0.8 to 1.5.0.6-1.4 (using YaST) After the update, as soon as i click the shortcut on my desktop firefox starts 2 times. The first is very quick available, but you can see that it tries to load a second time, which fails. I can use firefox normally after this. When i start firefox from the "start" button and then the internet -> web browser function, it starts normal. When i make a new shortcut to firefox, and click it, again it tries to open it 2 times. When i look in the properties of the desktop shortcut (which is the standard icon/setup), firefox is started with the command firefox %u The firefox shortcut from the "start" menu starts with the same command. The first time i started firefox after the update (using the desktop shortcut) it started normal. All further attempts try to start it twice. This happens for all users, and on two different computers. What went wrong and how do i correct this?

razor problem
by Gaël Lams 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Hi all, I'm configuring an smtp gateway with spamassassin and a few plugings: DCC, pyzor, and razor (SuSE 9.3). When I finished the installation, I become a normal user and type "razor-admin –create". Here is the error I get lams@barracuda:~/.pyzor> razor-admin -create Insecure dependency in mkdir while running setuid at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i586-linux-thread-multi/Razor2/Client/Config.pm line 265. Running this as root works, but I'm not sure of the consequence it can have. Any advice? Regards, Gaël

mount question
by Istvan Gabor 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

Hello all: I have backed up an ext3 filesystem. Now I would like to mount it on another system where I have different user name. I would like to avoid working as root with the mounted system. Can I define the user id/name (practically my other user name) who should be the owner of the newly mounted files in the case of ext3? I could not find an option for this in the man page. Thanks, IG _____________________________________________________________________ FotoMarket - digitális fotókidolgozás már 25 Ft-tól. http://ad.adverticum.net/b/cl,1,6022,99786,162268/click.prm

Is there an automatic hacker block available?
by Ronald Wiplinger 26 Sep '06

26 Sep '06

I see on all machines available on the Internet a permanent login try via ssh with all login names you can imagine (or even not anymore). I would like to set-up something, that temporary closes access from this IP address for 5 minutes, if a wrong password was provided. Is something like that or even better available???? bye Ronald
