[opensuse] What happend to the suse-sles-e mailing list?
by Robert Scheck 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Hello all, today I noticed that the suse-sles-e mailing list, normally reachable via suse-sles-e(a)suse.com, disappeared silently. Or said with more unfriendly words, the list was dropped - but why?! Even the archive at http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-sles-e/ isn't there, because http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-sles-e/2007-Oct/0068.html ends just in error 404. E-mails to suse-sles-e(a)suse.com seem to be dropped, no reply, no failure, simply nothing. As I'm subscribed to that list I would have expected at least a short mail before this list got killed or a notice about the replacement. Can a SuSE respectively Novell employee please tell me something about this at all? If possible, please avoid any openSUSE/SLES mixtures or kinds of Novell flames in reply mails as this was already and unfortunately done by several people at IRC on freenode's #suse - thanks. I'm still looking for a SuSE Linux Enterprise Server mailing list, because openSUSE can't help with SLES issues or problems/bugs which only exist in SLES and not in openSUSE. And as SLES is Enterprise (at least I'm thinking so - feel free to correct me, if I'm wrong), I prefer a separate nice list to keep further on apart what has to be separated...

[opensuse] Cannot Enable Community Repositores on 10.3 KDE Live CD
by Jeremy Wahl 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

When I try to enable the Community Repositories in YaST2 Control Center on the 10.3 live CD, I get "No product URL defined to download list of repositories from." This the first thing I did when I booted the live CD. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 10.3 chainloader
by Jose 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Hi Everybody, I have this suse 10.2 machine as the master distro installed, sitting on a hda partition, along with a couple of more distros on the same drive, I have another sdb drive (SATA) with a few more partitions, I have chainloaded from the 10.2 booter a couple of distros, one of them fedora and the other 10.3, Fedora would boot up if selected, but 10.3 will not, both have rootnoverify as an option, and I have both installed with their own grub booting from within their own root partition, so I am not sure why 10.3 is not working, if I put the DVD and select to boot the 10.3 install it works. Any ideas, I have seen lots of issues with SATA, but nothing as the way I am doing it Thanks in advance for your help Jose -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Suspend/Hibernate fails in 10.3, worked in 10.2 and before.
by Carlos E. R. 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I can not hybernate the machine. The system is 10.3 fully up to date. There is no powersave anything in Yast, so I can not configure or enable the thing. I get no option in kpowersave to hybernate or suspend. Pressing the "power" switch (my usual method to hybernate) produces a complaint in the log: Nov 4 02:36:12 nimrodel powersaved[5044]: WARNING (suspendToDisk:474) ACPI S3 state not available Command line 'pm-hibernate' hibernates and restores just fine. So the machine and the system can hybernate, it just "thinks" it can't. If in Gnome Power Management Preferences (which I have to call from the command line, I can't find the menu entry for gnome-control), General tab, Actions, I change "when the power button is pressed" to "Hibernate", now when I press the power button the machine starts to hybernate (I get the screen blanker) but doesn't go further. Later in the log, I find this: Nov 4 17:06:44 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) Hibernating computer because the power button has been pressed Nov 4 17:06:46 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) Resuming computer Nov 4 17:06:46 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) hibernate failed It prompts for my password, and then I see a half hidden window on the bottom right, tittled "Sleep Problem", that says "do not show this again" "Visit" - the rest is hidden by the plastic edge of the monitor; I mean, the message is off the screen. It doesn't say what the "problem" may be. However, if I press "Visit", firefox opens in <http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/>, Hal Quirk Site. It mentions an "quirk-checker.sh" script, that I download and run: nimrodel:~ # quirk-checker.sh Checking your system... CRITICAL ERROR: No supported distro So... what do I do? Where/how do I configure this in Yast, as I have no module for it? How do I convince both gnome and kde to hybernate, as they think it is not possible, when it is? Where is the real configuration of this thing? The directory tree under "/etc/pm/" contains no files. The directory tree under "/etc/powersave/" contains things, but it is said to be obsolete and ignored - however, Yast touched all files in there and they have recent dates. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFHLfrRtTMYHG2NR9URAjY2AJ0chr0vs4+OrZT93SSfFLmTesKj0gCdFtyg qzA351hJ5vgvO5WkHPAU4yw= =3vxr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem with media device in Amarok
by michael norman 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Running 10.3 with KDE 3.5.8 release 21.2 and Amarok 1.4.7-111.pm.7 i586 I find that I cannot, as I could before, add other formats (ogg, flac, wav for example) to the list of formats I can add to be transferred to my iAUDIO player. In the dialogue box if I try to enter say ogg it appears as "&ogg" and does not retain the setting. The device is recognised in all other respects and I have always to configure this feature in previous versions os SUSE/KDE/Amarok. It also works in Slackware 12.0. Is this a know problem ?
