Install source

Im adding http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/suse/ to my install source. It takes forever..... After bit of sniffing I found that its downloading http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/suse/re… this file is 17M; after its done I click Finish and then it downloads the file again!!, and again when I open Yast Software Management, and again when I click on the Update Manager thingy on the Panel. This is way to much downloading of the same file. I did uncheck the Refresh flag on the source. Anyone else seeing this? E-Mail disclaimer: http://www.sunspace.co.za/emaildisclaimer.htm

How do I fix this for building an rpm?
by JB 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Hiya all, I'm trying to build an rpm of gpa, and I've got the src.rpm fine, but when I do: rpmbuild --rebuild <src.rpm> it ends with: checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.2.0... no *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why... *** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the *** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed. configure: error: Cannot find GTK+ 2.0 I tried exporting GTK to /opt/gnome/lib (which is where I think GTK+ is), but it didn't make any difference. Anyone got any ideas how I can get around this? JB -- "In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a brave and scarce man, hated and scorned.

I didn't know it compiles against a 2.6 kernel?? For more informations, have a look at http://www.dazuko.org (btw: DaZuKo comes from the german Word DAteiZUgriffsKOntrolle -> File Access control).

RipperX crashes when trying to build playlist
by Robert Fitzpatrick 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

I have a peculiar issue with RipperX installed via the suser-oc2pus source. Worked fine under 10.0, but now under 10.1 it seems if a cd has 10 or more songs, it crashes while building the playlist at the end of the burn resulting in a playlist.m3u file with 9 entries only. I can burn the first 9 songs successfully, but when I try to burn the next 9, it crashes without generating a playlist.m3u file. Any one seen this or know what could be happening? I am scratching my head on this one. I've tried removing/re-installing ripperX. Both 10.0 and my 10.1 now run KDE 3.5.4 via KDE latest updates source. -- Robert

'whois' not working in suse 10.0
by Arie Reynaldi Z 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

Hi All, After couple of times trying, i notice that 'whois' command in suse 10.0 not working as usual. Before suse 10.0, whenever i type 'whois', it will shows this: using whois-4.6.9-40.4 back1:~ # whois Usage: whois [OPTION]... OBJECT... -l one level less specific lookup [RPSL only] -L find all Less specific matches -m find first level more specific matches < ---- cut ----> And I can check domain from it. 'whois linux.com'. But in suse 10.0, it shows nothing. using whois-4.7.5-3.2 gwcbn:~ # whois linux.com gwcbn:~ # Has anyone had problem like this ? I really need to use whois, cause it's more easy and quicker then browsing thru web to check domain name. regards, -- Arie Reynaldi Zanahar reymanx at gmail.com http://www.reynaldi.or.id

Unable to load interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2
by Craig Millar 01 Sep '06

01 Sep '06

I have noticed that the earlysyslog, mdnsd, and nscd services are failing during boot. Trying to run them manually seg faults, as does netstat. The only logged information I have found is in dmesg: Unable to load interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2 I can't seem to find a satisfactory answer to this, most other occurrences of this that I found seem to suggest that the vfs has hit the max open files limit, for eg here: http://gnowledge.org/pipermail/linuxers/Week-of-Mon-20020114/029520.html The suggestion is to increase the value in /proc/sys/fs/file-max but doing so, even significantly, has no effect. Does anyone else have any troubleshooting advice? /lib/ld-linux.so.2 is linked to /lib/ld-2.4.so Thanks Craig

Not completely true: on digg.com they gave a hack, on how to FOOL sites to believe you have Flash 9 installed. http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/14/flash-9-for-xubuntu/ Basically, the idea is just to change the version stamp. If a site makes usage of Version 8 or 9 script commands, they will not work.
