[opensuse] YaST Backup system
by Adam Jimerson 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

I need help figuring out how to get the YaST back up system be able to correctly back up my home partition. I had it set up and ran it, when the back up program finished I had two files one .tar and the other a .xml file. The thing that throws me off is that the .tar file is only 10 KB and the .xml file is 676 B when my home folder is 12 GB. By looks that does not look right, and when I run the System Restore and it complains about how the .tar file is not a correct back up file. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Where is xterm unreadable font?
by Carlos E. R. 07 Nov '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, In xterm the font size can be selected with ctrl + right click: Default Unicode-best Tiny Small Medium Large Huge I remember that a few versions back there was another one named "unreadable" because it was so small - but it was very useful when I wanted to select large text areas. How can I enable it back? - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFHMZM1tTMYHG2NR9URAjb5AJ4qxXjmZqTQ/iOOHzY4gtAMssPj1QCeLHmK CFRd/aCQ1c6WLbJ+m5y805k= =FbLT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] GTK2 updated for Evol 2.12
by Hans van der Merwe 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi all, last week I tried to update Evolution to ver 2.12 from the Gnome Stable repo. Unfortunately it didnt work because the required GTK2 upgrades are not installed (RPM not complete?) So I installed all the gtk2 stuff I could find until evol started working again. Now my question is, how do I get my gtk theme to look like KDE? The "GTK Styles and Fonts" in kcontrol is not working? I can set it to QT style (looks better), but "Use my KDE style in GTK" is not doing anything?

[opensuse] Scanner and 10.3
by Jason Craig 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

I recently upgraded from 10.2 to 10.3 and now my HP PSC2350 scanner no longer works. In GIMP, when I go to acquire, nothing happens. When I went to go check on settings in YaST, when I go to "Scanners" it leaves me with an error of "Cannot build driver database". Anyone have ideas? thanks, --Jason -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] cut .vob file
by drek 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi all, My brother made a DVD with some of our home-video's. In the DVD menu there are two chapters. The DVD consists of 6 .vob files (4 files of 1GB). The second chapter begins somewhere in the 3rd 1GB file. (I can see this when I open just this vob file.) Does anybody know an easy way to convert/cut these vob's into 2 separate movies? Just cutting on a particular time is enough. Regards, André -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bye bye opensuse...

After persevering with you for such a long time, I think it is time to let go and move on to better world of Mandriva or Ubuntu. A few problems I have encountered on the way and have not found any solution for those. My X server dying was the last straw. Good luck to the opensuse team and anyone else who uses it.
