[opensuse] kerberos authentication and pam help with 10.3
by Christopher Dick 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

I am trying to get my SuSE 10.3 machine to authenticate using Kerberos. There are pretty clear instructions out and about on how to do it with SuSE 10.2 and earlier. However, with the elimination of the pam_unix2.conf and such, those instructions no longer apply. Is there anyone who can help me make appropriate changes to the various files in /etc/pam.d to allow true Kerberos authentication? I have the kerberos client configured appropriately, because when I issue a "kinit" command, I do get a ticket issued. Any help is appreciated.

[opensuse] Compiz - Why are 16 desktop icons (13 "desktop 1" icons) in the taskbar?
by David C. Rankin J.D. P.E. 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

Sorry for the barrage of Compiz questions, But I have to ask one more. I have 16 small desktop icons in the taskbar with compiz running. They are directly related to the ccsm -> desktop -> General Option -> Desktop Size settings. The behavior of these setting does not make complete sense. Currently I have "Horizontal Virtual Size" set to 4 and "Number of Desktops" set to 4. (Yes, I can multiply) What does not make sense is that the icons in the taskbar tell you they represent desktops 1-4 (sequentially), and then you have 12 more "desktop 1" icons that follow? Huh? Setting "Number of Desktops" to 1 eliminates the 12 other "desktop 1" icons, but then just leaves you with 4 "desktop 1" icons. Setting Horizontal Virtual Size to less than 4 simply reduces the number of sides on your Desktop Cube accordingly. Horizontal Virtual Size = 1 eliminates the desktop cube altogether. What seems to be an unintended feature or bug occurs when you use the title bar context menu to "Move to Another Workspace". For some applications, Firefox in particular, moving the application seems to send it to oblivion never to be seen again. This all may be as intended, or it may be a bug in the interchange between the kde "move to desktop" and the compiz "Move to Another Workspace". For the compiz gurus, Is this how things are supposed to work, or does this look like something I need to file as a bug? I don't know enough to know, but I am happy to help and file the report if one is needed. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

[opensuse] How do I delete a programs and all it's configuration files?
by Aniruddha 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

What's openSUSE's policy in regards to config files? Does removing programs with yast/zipper also remove it's config files by default? And if not how do I achieve this? -- Regards, Aniruddha Please adhere to the OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] install source rpms via yast2
by Sebastian Brandt 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

Hi! I'm feeling kind of stupid ... have done more than a decade of linux, started with kernel 1.2.8, and I'm unable to install the source packages with yast2 (spm, src.rpm) Of course, I can download them, install them with rpm, build and install the binaries ... no problem ... but: Why the heck is there neither a possibility for me to check "sources" in the yast2 packages table, nor is the menu item "Package->Install sources" clickable, just grey? It doesn't matter which package repository I try, opensuse-ftp, packman, opensuse-update, etc. Added the src-repository, as well. ftp://sunsite.rwth-aachen.de/pub/linux/opensuse/distribution/10.3/repo/src-oss/suse/ Opensuse 10.3, updated from 10.2, yet I the problem was there already. Hope someone can help me ... Sebastian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] How do search and install rpm's from the commandline?
by Aniruddha 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

I wonder how do search and install rpm's from the commandline? I know I can run yast in curses mode but I am looking for something more basic. In other words what is the openSUSE equivalent for: Debian aptitude search $ (search in package names) apt-cache search $ (search package descriptions) aptitude install $ (install package) Gentoo emerge -s $ (search in package names) emerge -S $ (search package descriptions) emerge $ (install package) -- Regards, Aniruddha Please adhere to the OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] wpa problems
by Peter E Collier 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

I've a thinkpad T30 with a prism wireless chipset. It's a dual boot setup of win xp and opensuse 10.3.. Netgear wireless router. I can communicate ok using wpa encryption on xp (so proves that wpa works with this chipset) but not on suse. WEP communication is working on suse so wireless networking is set up ok but not if I try to use WPA. I've done a lot of googling for the past 2 days and tried a few vague answers, many which seem to suggest a manually written config file for the older distro versions, with no joy. wpa-supplicant gui or yast does not work. The nearest to success seems to be the readme file supplied with wpa-supplicant bit that fails on the last line of instructions. Does anyone have a link to a definite set of instructions, or could give advice howto get wpa to work?

Hi List, After spending lots of money for David Gilmour's new dvd I realised that I can't find libdvdcss to install. I have the Packman sources added in YaST and also googled a while, no luck. Searching in opensuse.org doesn't bring something really helpfull. What has happened with it?
