[opensuse] KDE bug
by Maura Edelweiss Monville 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

I have convinced you ... maybe you can forward my snapshot to all the other Linux/SuSE gurus who think that I've been drinking ... actually I am teetotaller (no alcohol at all). I tried to report the bug but it's taking too long at filling out all the questionnaire .. I leave it with the experts .. I'm just a user. ANyway, I am surprised that this malfunctioning has not been detected yet. Usage of portable memory is quite common. Please, let me know about a patch or workaround. Thank you so much, Maura Maura Edelweiss M. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SuSE 10.3 Cannot see USB memory stick nor the CD drive ...
by Maura Edelweiss Monville 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

I am desperately trying to figure out why SuSE 10.3 cannot see either the USB memory stick nor the CD drive. As root I have read the last 100 lines of the /var/log/messages file when I plug my memory stick into the USB drive. I'm copying it in the end of this messge Appearantly it is detected but I cannot access it from my desktop. No icon is generated nor entry in SuSE "Computer" panel. Please, can someone help me with that ?

[opensuse] Making sysfs values persist across reboot
by Marlier, Ian 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hi, all -- I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to get a setting made in the sysfs tree (in this case, /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource) to persist across reboot. Under opensuse 10.3 using a xen kernel, the default value in this node is "xen". However, there is a bug that causes the machine to lock up if using that value, and so it needs to be changed to "jiffies", which is accomplished by doing echo "jiffies" > /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource I can add this command to an init script (boot.local, for example). But I'm wondering if there's any alternative, such as the sysctl.conf file that controls the settings under /proc/sys Anyone know of one? Thanks!

It is obvious that there is no many with Canon Pixma MP830, but without more details people that know how to setup printers can't say what might be wrong, or help you to troubleshoot problem. For instance it would be helpful to turn printer on and run: dmesg | tail -n10 to see what kernel is doing. Is registered any activity on USB port. Then command: hwinfo --printer can give some information.

[opensuse] Canon Pixma MP830 problem
by Dennis J. Tuchler 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

I just set up the printer, self-test worked, connected the printer to a USB port on my Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop. Yast spotted both the printer and the scanner. The printer test failed. I checked and found that the printer was listed as a parallel printer connected to lp0. I changed the setting to USB printer only to get the message, "No USB devices found. It seems that your USB bus is not properly configured" I changed the connection to a USB connection that works with an external storage device. Same message. What do I do now? -- Best regards, Dennis J.

[opensuse] ksensors does not display harddisk temperature
by Eberhard Roloff 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hi, I am using 10.3/32bit and my toolk for monitoring cpu temp and speed, fan speeds and the like is lm-sensors with the KDE frontend ksensors. Up to SuSE 10.2 this used to also display the temperature of my harddisk if I had hddtemp installed. Now I have hddtemp installed, but for the life of me I cannot get ksensors to display my harddisk temperature. Anything else from lm-sensors is there. I am using ksensors 0.7.3 from packman. Any hints how to get my harddisk temperature into ksensors to be displayed on my desktop are appreciated?

[opensuse] display freezes on "log out" OK on shutdown. What to check?
by David C. Rankin 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Mates, Suse 10.3, kde, compiz. The screen freezes on log out and will not return you to the login prompt. You can see the text screen from boot flash just for a second before kdm tries to restore the login. The the screen goes blank. (not totally black like off, the display is still active, it's just black) The system is hardlocked and must be hard reset. ctrl+alt+[either del or backspace] has no effect. Lockup occurs regardless of whether the WM is kwin or compiz. The logs are empty. What should I check or what link can I read to start to sort this out? thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

[opensuse] Blogger Party, Microsoft & OpenSUSE Mission
by Masim "Vavai" Sugianto 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Well, this is not about technical stuff. Just an intermezzo ;-). Last week (October 27, 2007), the Indonesian Blogger created their event called PestaBlogger 2007 (Blogger Party, http://pestablogger.com) This is the first and biggest national blogger events in Indonesia. After short discussion with my friend of mine in Indonesian OpenSUSE Community (http://www.opensuse.or.id) we get a plans to take this event as an opportunity to promote OpenSUSE by providing CDs and brochure. I contacted one company based on Bandung, Indonesia (Paris van Java :-) ) and got their support by providing 1000 CDs OpenSUSE with pre-printed Geeko logo. What's the interesting point is the party list of sponsors. PestaBlogger chairman told me that one of the main sponsors is Microsoft Indonesia. He said that the committee would not be accepted our request to attached the CD as one of the audience gifts but he provided another way, distributed CD without officially attached. We (me and some OpenSUSE-ID member) tried plan B. We brings the CDs onto the party. I met some bloggers (about 500 bloggers around of Indonesia) and the mission getting started, distributed the CD with one or two introduction words. The mission completed successfully with a good response. We got another advantages because Microsoft provided only about 10 DVD of Windows Vista and Office 2007 compares to 1000 CD of OpenSUSE 10.3 :-). Maybe in the next blogger party, OpenSUSE-ID and Indonesian Linux Community receive the equal opportunity to get listed as main sponsors :-). Next event is Bandung Comtech and Indonesia Linux Conference in the end of November 2007. Indonesian OpenSUSE Community officially invited by the committee and we hope we get better idea to promote this nice distro. I posted this story at my personal blog : http://www.vavai.net/index.php?/archives/22-PestaBlogger-2007-Blogger-Party… Note : Indonesian OpenSUSE Community launched at July 23, 2007.

[opensuse] Stupid Compiz questions
by Bob S 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hello SuSE people, Running 10.3 64 bit with KDE. I installed compiz-fusion. I find it locks up some applications and some other things don't work so I want to turn it off until I have more time to play with it. It starts automatically at boot up. Stupid question #1. How do I turn it off ?? SQ # 2. How do you close an app without going up to the menu bar "File" and then choosing quit from the drop down list? SQ # 3. How do you minimize an app? or resize the window? There's more but I just want to turn it off for now.

[opensuse] Installing windows last

Hello, I have openSUSE setup right now on my machine that has 2 mirrored 80gb disks. I just got another disk 80gb disk but I would like to install windows on it. My question is, is it possible to install windows on that new disk without it taking off my grub? I know most multiboot setups that include windows always say install windows first then install linux so it can auto detect your windows partition and setup grub accordingly but in my case I already have linux setup and want to install windows while keeping suse's grub menu. Is this possible and how? Thank you, - Jake -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

I've heard so many complaints about ATI cards, that is my first guess. personally, I've had nothing but trouble with ATI on linux, to the point where I won't use it on a workstation. On my own desktops, I either use built-in intel video, or nvidia. and those have worked quite well for me.

[opensuse] 10.3 and VMWare Server 1.0.4
by John 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

Hi, after installing 10.3 (another story!) I tried to run VMWare server 1.0.3 and it didn't work. Downloaded the latest (1.0.4-56528) and installed and all seemed to be working OK. After running for a while, the virtual disk corrupted (XP - no snapshot :-( ). Have since reinstalled, and it seems very unstable - breaks KDE (no mouse/keyboard input) and corrupts the virtual disk. Anybody else experienced this, and if so, any ideas? Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] KDE update on 10.3
by Roger Oberholtzer 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

I have been trying, on 10.3 via YaST, to update KDE from the build service. When doing so, it will not install kdegraphics3 because of problems with qpoppler. It is trying to install kdegraphics3-3.5.8-2.4.i586. It claims that poppler-qt-0.5.4-100.i586 provides libpoppler-qt.so.1, but it is scheduled to be uninstalled. I have tried locking it, but that does not help. Anyone else having this interaction? I did a google search and a bugzilla search at novell. No mention. I has been like this for a week, so others should have seen this by now. The install has been kept up-to-date with the build service. I know there can be issues. But I do not think I am doing anything odd where I should be the only one to see this. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.

I am having kmail connect to my pop3 mail account, I know the server is up because I am able to ping it, but it could be having trouble (sadly it happens a lot with my ISP).

It doesn't lock up or anything because all the menus and buttons responded, its just not communicating with the server.

[opensuse] DHCP Problem
by Kai Ponte 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

My openSUSE 10.2 laptop has been on the corporate network since being upgraded from Vista in May (a week after I got it). Suddenly yesterday, I cannot connect to anything. I checked and found that my network - eth0 - is on but that I'm connected to a 'default' network of 169.254.x.x, which I'm told is a Microsoft network. My network admins (who work for me) are not able to help since none know Linux. We recently switched from an NT 4.0 Domain to a new AD setup. That switch was three weeks ago, so I can't imagine this issue is related. In googling, I found that there apparently is no GUI tool for configuring or renewing DHCP leases. I dropped down to the command line and have tried both 'service network restart' and 'dhclient -r eth0' In both cases, the network releases and then comes back. Ideas? This is too weird. -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Unclean shutdowns in 10.3
by Myrosia Dzikovska 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

I recently upgraded to 10.3 from 10.0 on a Sony Vaio PCG V505DP laptop. My 10.0 setup was very stable, but I am experiencing a serious problem in 10.3 with unclean shutdowns. Every so often (once in 5 times, maybe) my KDE refuses to shut down - some windows, like KNotes, stay on screen, but nothing happens. My keyboard works, so I can switch to text console, manually kill all processes and then re-boot with ctrl-alt-del or reboot. However, the system refuses to shut down cleanly. It goes through all the normal stages without any error messages, gets to the point of unmounting the file systems and then goes oops - cannot umount /: device or resource busy And then it halts immediately. When I run it again, there is always a ton of transactions to be replayed (I am using ReiserFS). I looked through /var/log/messages and /var/log/XFree86.0.log, but neither seems to have any error messages. I checked my hardware status with smartctl, and it reports being fine. How could I begin to trace this? Myrosia -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] DOT gconf & gconfd
by Carl Spitzer 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

I am trying to restore the ability to bring up the browser of my choice when clicking a link in Evolution mail. I backed up all the directories I thought could matter: .gconf .gconfd .gnome .gnome2 .gnome2_private then removed them logged out and back in. Evolution could not find the existing DOT evolution directory and my mail. I tried to restore .gconf/apps/evolution but that was not enough. as evolution still could not find the mail. so I restored all of that and logged out and back in. Now it works but the clicking of links goes no where. which file do I hack to make it work. ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Anyone else having rpm2cpio trouble?
by Bryen 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

When I run rpm2cpio (packagename) I get a very scrambled output, and when it returns to the prompt, the prompt is scrambled too, as well as anything I type. Only way out of this is to close the terminal and restart. Another symptom, rpm2cpio --help works before I actually run an rpm2cpio process. But after I run the process, if I attempt rpm2cpio --help, it hangs. Even after having closed the terminal and restarting it. I'm not seeing rpm2cpio in ps aux or top, so not sure where to clear out rpm2cpio, other than by a reboot. Anyone else have this problem in 10.3? -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

And the one closed regarding the repair issue on the ISO on the release was closed with a rather expedient 'we'll release a patch' rather than 'oops, let's replace the iso before too many people have downloaded it and it spreads'.

[opensuse] gimpshop overtakes gimp after being removed
by Gavin Chester 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

running opensuse10.2 and using smart to manage packages: I wanted to evaluate gimpshop for the sake of a friend who was uncomfortable with native gimp. So I removed gimp (as required, though you may say otherwise) and installed gimpshop from packman repos. It didn't perform as well as it was supposed to and gave an error when trying to open almost any graphic file type (eg, jpg, png, bmp) saying "unknown file type". So I removed it and reinstalled gimp. Funny thing was the gimpshop splash screen persisted and so did the failure to open any file. Did a search on my drive for any gimpshop components, found nothing telling, so I upgraded to gimp-unstable just for the hell of it. Same thing. Downgraded to gimp 2.2.13 from suse repos and same thing. I've no idea how to clean my system of the gimpshop scourge and get gimp working again (it did work just fine before this). Any ideas?

Hello! I am a Linux and openSUSE rookie so please tailor your response to my non-existent experience level. Thanks much. Problem using: gnome - YaST Control Center - Hardware - Printer icon While trying to install an old parallel printer, connected through a USB-to-parallel converter, I received the following messages in a pop-up box having the title of "xmessage" while trying to do a test print: ** (gtk:2594): WARNING **: Markup parse error 'Error on line 1 char 845: Element 'p' was closed, but the currently open element is 'P'' ** (gtk:2594): WARNING **: Markup parse error 'Error on line 1 char 828: Element 'big' was closed, but the currently open element is 'BIG'' (the second line above is then repeated 2 additional times) Since I am using yast to try to install the printer, I am not myself directly editing or entering any 'markup', which I assume means an xml file, so what are these messages related to?

[opensuse] Evolution 2.12 on 10.2
by Hans van der Merwe 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

Hi, I have spent the morning trying to upgrade to Evol 2.12 from the GNOME: repo on the build service. The evolution packages installed fine - but I had to upgrade gtk2 "by hand" to get the rest of the dependencies in a row. (Im using Smart). Is this right? Is the Evolution packages dependent on the latest gtk2? (if so, why didnt the dependencies get picked up by Smart?) or did I do something wrong?

Hi, I am running opensuse 10.3 (with kde) and this morning I lost the title bars on all the open windows. I restarted the machine and X server would not start on my machine. Trying to run sax2, I am getting the following error : xc : sorry could not start configuration server xc : abort I am attaching the log file SaX.log. Can you please advise what needs to be done to get my machine to work? TIA.

Re: [opensuse] yum repos and zypper update

I guess the next step is to investigate creating patches so things can be more automatic.

[opensuse] Wifi Install Problem
by Donald D Henson 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

I've been trying to get wifi to work on my Inspiron 1501 laptop. Aside from the "normal" problems associated with a wifi install, everything was going smoothly until I tried to install an "Invalid Driver!" using ndisgtk. I found another driver to try but discovered that ndisgtk will not remove an invalid driver nor will it install another driver on top of the invalid one. My problem is that I don't know how to remove the driver using the CLI. I was going to remove the *.inf file but I can't find it. I will be eternally grateful to anyone who can tell me how to remove an invalid wifi driver.

[opensuse] How do I manage kernels in opensuse
by Aniruddha 01 Nov '07

01 Nov '07

I would like to try out the realtime kernel but I have problems getting my Nvidia drivers working. I have the kernel-source installed. I wonder: -How do I manage kernel symlinks in openSUSE? -How do I get the Nvidia driver working? In Gentoo I would switch the kernel symlink to the rt kernel and reinstall the Nvidia driver then reboot in the new kernel. What is the openSUSE way? -- 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
