[opensuse] KDE4 Beta4 Wallpaper
by kbboykin＠comcast.net 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

Hello, I have dl'd KDE4 Beta4 from openSuSE Factory repo onto my 10.3 installation and have got it working pretty nicely. Looks good!. I had the Beta4 LiveCD and it had a nice desktop wallpaper. The CD actually got me wanting to start testing KDE4. However, the desktop wallpaper is black. How do you add wallpaper to this? I tried to dl an oxygen theme from KDE-Look, but couldn't get it to install. Any help appreciated. -- Keith Boykin You are what you think - so always think positively! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SuSE 10.3 problems with java : R GUI won't install
by Maura Edelweiss Monville 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

I have installed R (http://cran.at.r-project.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.6.0.tar.gz) and followed the installation instructions: "put it in /usr/local/bin and then unpack, and just say "./configure", then "make", then "make install" inside the R-2.6.0 directory" R runs fine but just from command line. I am also using R on Windows where it has a nice GUI. I was directed to dowload and install R GUI for Linux ( http://rosuda.org/JGR/down.shtml) I folowed the instructions for SuSE10.2 although I have 10.3. I istalled java 1.6 as required. But the R GUI won't work on SuSE10.3. In the following I'm pasting the fatal error I get. R has its own mailing list where I have posted my problem. All people who tried to install R GUI on SuSE 10.3 experienced the same problem that is unanimali regarded as a SuSE 10.3 problem. Dr E.A. Catchpole <e.catchpole(a)adfa.edu.au> wrote: "This is a known problem with Suse10.3 --- lots of things that use Java (e.g., Matlab) produce the same error message. I'm currently trying to fix this upon my machine, but haven't succeeded yet. Josh Triplett suggested the following: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6532373 This seems to have helped several people. But it didn't work for me. A sure fix is going back to Suse10.2!" I know many of you (in this forum) have all the knowledge and expertise to suggest the workaround. I would appreciate your help.

[opensuse] Sound problem
by Dennis J. Tuchler 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

After my SUSE 10.3 supplied Firefox began acting up and finally refused to appear at all, I installed a Mozilla-origin Firefox. Now, when I click on any sound on a site, I hear nothing. I am operating under KDE. The volume on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 8600) is set all the way up. KMIX is on. I had no trouble with this under 10.2. What do I do to fix this?

[opensuse] video card changed
by Lorenzo Cerini 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

Hello, i changed my video card, i removed the ati, and wanted to use the intel i810 integrated on my mb. Actually my pc starts, and even X starts, just my card is treated as a framebuffer. Via Sax2, i noticed now, is no more possible to change the video card, so now i can't have the 3d back again, and i can't configure the card as i would like to. Any idea? I've already tried via xorgconfig, and is not working. tia. -- Lorenzo Cerini Info.era srl Trieste tel. +39040.67027360 fax. +39040.67027363 ---------------------------------------------- Le informazioni trasmesse sono da intendere solo per la persona e/o societa' a cui sono indirizzate, possono contenere documenti confidenziali e/o materiale riservato.

[opensuse] Kopete not connecting
by Rui Santos 03 Nov '07

Hi all, I'm using Kopete 0.12.7, KDE 3.5.8 release 21.2 on openSUSE 10.2. I have two MSN accounts on it. Kopete doesn't even seems to try to connect to the accounts. I already tried to delete the ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete folder and it did nothing to improve my situation. Anyone having this same behavior ?

Sorry about > the lame request. w3m <some-site> H that's a capital/upper-case h or ? that's a question mark will give you the commands available ~~~~~~~~ Going from vi to emacs was intuitive enough. Have found the H command in w3m. Still trying find how to download files, webmin rpm for example, without just getting the php file downloaded instead of the whole rpm. Fun stuff.
