[opensuse] openSUSE 10.3 not detecting SATA HD
by Nathaniel Dube 09 Oct '07

09 Oct '07

When I boot up the openSUSE 10.3 DVD it takes about 30 seconds or more to load the sata_sis driver. So I'm wondering if that's broke. I've tried acpi=off, which didn't work. I've tried turning off ACPI in bios and acpi=off which didn't work. I tried the Kernel Safe Settings, which didn't work. I tried brokenmodules=sata_sis, which didn't work. I have two HD's. The primary one is PATA which is where I install the OS. The secondary HD is a SATA which I store /home. As I write this I'm on openSUSE 10.2 and all my hardware is working fine. What would change in 10.3 that would make SATA all of a sudden non responsive?

I am looking for recommendations on what books I should have for SuSE Administration. I would like an advanced book that will cover everything from command line to YAST administration. I would also like a book on securing SuSE.

Dell Inspiron E1505/6400, ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 Most everything is working fine. Had to generate a dist-specific driver rpm for the ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. Removed bug-buddy and now Sun java 6u3 jdk / Netbeans 5.5.1 working fine. Front media control buttons work! Enabled text Anti-Aliasing / Freetype / Subpixel Hinting One-click install of Compiz-Fusion One-click install of media apps / codecs. Switched my bootsplash from the default green to the dark black-grey... sweet -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Ktorrent crashes
by Regis Matejcik 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

With all of the promising comments about 10.3 I thought I'd give it I try. I'm using SuSe 10.0 and the Ktorrent (1.1 I believe) that is packaged with 10.0 I started trying to download 10.3 with Ktorrent on Saturday. It seems to do fine for a while then after about 30 to 90 minutes it just disappears. No client, no process, nothing. When I re-start, it seems to work fine, and it picks up the download where it left off, but then will die again in 30 - 90 minutes. Any thoughts on what could cause this or how to correct it? Thanks, Regis Matejcik -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problems configuring Nvidia MCP51 soundcard
by Aniruddha 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

I installed openSUSE 10.3 on my gfriends laptop and I have problems getting the Nvidia MCP51 soundcard properly configured (it ran fine in PCLinuxOS and Gentoo). Audio playback 'hangs' causing a loop of irritating noise. I have tried reinstalling the card through yast2. I als tried configuring the card with alsaconf. Both to no avail. According to lspci have a Nvidia MCP51 soundcard, yast2 calls it a 'V6133CL' How can I can solve this? Thanks in advance!

In 10.2 I used to use kino for video editing, but I can't find it in the OSS/non-OSS/Packman repositories for 10.3. Anyone know where I could find it, or another, similar program? -- Bob openSUSE 10.3, Kernel 2.6.22.5-31-default, KDE 3.5.7 r72 Intel Celeron 2.53GB, 2GB DDR RAM, nVidia GeForce 7600GS -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] To all people who have JAVA problems, please read

I had Java problems too, until I updated my system with the KDE install disk and started using KDE as default. Java problems are caused because of bad integration with Gnome.
