[opensuse] Conflict of interest
by Basil Chupin 30 Oct '07

30 Oct '07

The smart package updater wants to upgrade amarok plus a couple of other applications but when it tries there is an error message which then stops all processing in its track. The error message is: file /usr/bin/reset from install of libmtp-0.2.3-2.1 conflicts with file from package ncurses-5.5-42 Can anyone suggest a way out of this problem? (I tried taking libmtp out of the equation but then other dependencies are affected :-( .)

[opensuse] Google earth. Does it work?
by Dennis E. Slice 30 Oct '07

30 Oct '07

I am helping someone learn about computers who wants to use Google Earth. I am unfamiliar with the program, but a linux .bin downloaded and seemed to install cleanly. Starting it, however, only produces a Splash Screen, an "Intializing" message in the toolbar, and massive amounts of unending CPU usage. Are there any secrets to get this to work? Is it supposed to open a browser or something? Not at all sure what to expect. IBM Thinkpad T41 SUSE 10.0 Firefox 1.5.0.6 (if it matters) TIA, ds -- Dennis E.

[opensuse] mount.ntfs-3g eating substantial CPU
by David C. Rankin J.D. P.E. 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

Listmates, What is it that causes mount.ntfs-3g to run at what seems like random times. When this occurs, it will eat 17-30% pf the CPU running for several minutes also creating a lot of hard drive activity. Is this something like beagle that I can just shoot in the head? -- David C.

[opensuse] compiz --replace ccp & AND libIndirectGL.so.1- Conundrum
by David C. Rankin J.D. P.E. 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

Listmates, I am narrowing down the reason that compiz will not autostart on my Toshiba P35 laptop running openSuSE 10.3. There seems to be a mutual exclusion between being able to do manual start with "compiz --replace ccp &" and having compiz start at all with "libIndirectGL.so.1" present in /usr/lib. To get compiz to start on my system, I must manually rename the link for libIndirectGL.so.1 or compiz will refuse to run (period). For starters, when my desktop loads, it looks like it is trying to start compiz, the deep shadow behind the cursor is there, but then it loads kwin. Under control center -> sessions manager, there is no way to select compiz or any other desktop manager. kwin is present, but greyed out. To then start compiz, I must manually run fusion-icon. Running fusion-icon Compiz starts just fine. Why compiz-manager doesn't run or complete running fusion-icon on start is a standing question. If the libIndirectGL.so.1 link is present, fusion-icon will not run or start compiz. I can't explain why. Renaming libIndirectGL.so.1 allows fusion-icon to run. However, trying a manual start with "compiz --replace ccp &" fails if libIndirectGL.so.1 is not there. That is the conundrum. There seems to be a "catch 22" on my system between having, or not having, the libIndirectGL.so.1 link present. What can we test or try to solve this problem? Any thoughts? -- David C.

[opensuse] Audigy LS and asoundrc file.
by Hugo Espresati Serrano 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

Hi, I'm trying to emulate 5.1 for mp3, 2.0 videos, etc. I'm using a .asoundrc file. It works but I only can play a sound at the same time: I can hear music, but, while I'm doing this, I can't hear a video. I have been looking for a solution and I think that the problem is in *dmix*. I don't know how to modify the asoundrc file, any chnage make Amarok crash! This is my sound card: (hwinfo --sound) 28: PCI 507.0: 0401 Multimedia audio controller [Created at pci.301] UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_1102_7 Unique ID: mO1u.WCfr2+peI1A Parent ID: WL76.vuIf6LvchL4 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/0000:05:07.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:05:07.0 Hardware Class: sound Model: "Creative SB Audigy LS" Vendor: pci 0x1102 "Creative Labs" Device: pci 0x0007 "SB Audigy LS" SubVendor: pci 0x1102 "Creative Labs" SubDevice: pci 0x100a Driver: "CA0106" Driver Modules: "snd_ca0106" I/O Ports: 0xa000-0xafff (rw) IRQ: 17 (54561 events) Module Alias: "pci:v00001102d00000007sv00001102sd0000100Abc04sc01i00" Driver Info #0:Driver Status: snd_ca0106 is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_ca0106" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Attached to: #18 (PCI bridge) And this is my .asoundrc file: ################################################## ####### #This is the standard setting (see: "!default") #This profile, the default loaded, upmixes stereo sound to 5.1. pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "surround51" slave.channels 6 route_policy duplicate } ################################################## ###### #This is the normal spdif output profile (optical, toslink). pcm.!spdif { type plug slave.pcm "hw:0,1" } ################################################## ##### #This is what one could call the "factory default setting", in other words, it only plays the actual channels. so if you fx want to watch a 5.1 movie, on the analog output, this is the option you want. pcm.analog { type plug slave analog_slave; } pcm_slave.analog_slave { pcm surround51; format S32_LE; } ALSA gives poor information about how to configure this sound card... ¿Any one has a asoundrc that works fine?
