In 10.1 you had to install the package "ksynaptics" for this option to appear in the menu. -- Carlos FL Who is General Failure, and why is he reading my disk? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Disabling system accounts from proftpd
by Jake Conk 20 Nov '07

20 Nov '07

Hello, I have proftpd configured to query my mysql database for its users and quotas but its also allowing users I created in my /etc/passwd file which I do not want. Is there a way to configure proftpd to not read in the users from my passwd file and only authenticate users from the mysql database?

[opensuse] Update Tomcat + Apache install help for Suse 10.3
by Hugo Garcia 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi Is there an updated install page for Apache2 + Tomcat 5.5 + SuSE 10.3? The following link in the wiki doesn't help much: http://en.opensuse.org/Tomcat_HOWTO since it is for 10.2 and 10.3 does supply the correct mod_jk connector from Yast. If anyone has Tomcat + Apache working then can you please help? I got tomcat running but would like to have the apache/tomcat bridge working. -H -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Disable horizontal scroll on touchpad
by Henk te Sligte 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi guys, I really love the feature that opensuse added to my touchpad, the vertical scrolling. However, when I installed opensuse 10.3, all of a sudden, when I moved my finger on the bottom part of the touchpad, Firefox detected it as horizontal scrolling, and went a page back in history. That is really annoying, my touchpad doesn't have a horizontal scrollbar, and I don't want Linux to act like I have. I tried disabling it with KSynaptics, but that works only temporarily. After a reboot, it happens again. YaST lists 3 mouses for me, a Synaptics Touchpad, an IBM TPPS/2 TrackPoint and a PS/2 Generic Mouse. Disabling one of these doesn't help, after disabling it and returning to the Mouse Model configuration page, they are all enabled again. But I am quite sure it's possible to disable it, opensuse 10.2 didn't act like this. Do you guys know a solution to disable this annoying feature? Thanks in advance, Henk te Sligte -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] update problems
by Sergey Mkrtchyan 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi List! openSUSE updater shows that there are 4 updates available, but when I try to run them, the following error occurs: 2 Problems: Problem: No valid solution found with just resolvables of best architecture. Problem: java-1_5_0-sun-plugin cannot be installed due to missing dependencies Problem: No valid solution found with just resolvables of best architecture. With this run only resolvables with the best architecture have been regarded. Regarding all possible resolvables takes time, but can come to a valid result. Solution 1: Make a solver run with ALL possibilities. Regarding all resolvables with a compatible architecture. So it seems that there is some problems with java plugin, but it's Solution 1(make s solver run with all posibilities) doesn't seem obvious to me. Does anybody of you have the same?

by Sunny 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

I just filed this case: <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=342755> Does anyone else experience the same? Cheers Sunny P.S. Content of the bug: Hi, after the last update of gtk2 breaks mysql query browser (mysql-query-browser-5.0r12-56). Downgrading to gtk2-2.12.0-5.2 solves the problem. Description of the problem and steps to reproduce: 1. install gtk2-2.12.0-5.4 2. start mysql query browser 3. connect to a database without specifying default catalog 4. after the connection is made - click on any catalog listed on the right hand side. Expected result: to open the catalog, changing the icon from (db sign) to an arrow, so one can open it and list the tables Actual result: freeze of the application. Have to be closed. If you replace step 3 with: 3. connect to a database, specifying a default catalog Expected result: the application to be started, and the selected catalog displayed Actual result: No user interface is opened at all. In the process list mysql query browser is listed as running. Reproduce how often: always. -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Open SuSE 10.3 still locking up
by Clive Rogers 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi, Any one come up with why the system still locks up ? I have tried everything that I have seen on this list to stop the lock ups and tried what I have seen on the internet. I did a test on the last lock up. I inserted a data DVD in to the DVD draw and the system came up with the data on the DVD but I had no control. Neither mouse nor keyboard would bring the system back to me. I had to press reset to get back into the system after a reboot. Looks like the system has a problem with the mouse and keyboard for some reason but what I have no idea. -- Kindest regards, Clive http://homepage.ntlworld.com/c.rogers/ Fighting for darker skies.

[opensuse] Canon MP830 found but won't print
by Dennis J. Tuchler 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Strange doings: The Canon PIXMA MP830 was spotted by Yast and a test page was printed. A day later, I sent a fax successfully. Now, the damned thing won't print -- not even a test page. It prints self-test pages. When I send a document to the printer, I hear the printer whirr and make other noises. Oddly, the KBJobViewer notes a docuiment with n bytes but 0 pages! Has anyone "out there" any idea of what is going on? The people at Canon have no idea about Linux. -- Best regards, Dennis J.

[opensuse] openSUSE remastering HOWTO
by Daniel Antonio Peraza Cedrez 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi everybody. Knoppix community has a HOWTO about remastering Knoppix and how to install it on a USB key since a long time ago. I have a 20 GB laptop hard disk with an USB adapter (I can plug it through any USB port instead of an IDE connector), and I wonder how could I install openSUSE-Live-CD-kde on it, and how to build a remastered version in order to have LAMP software installed on it by default (which might be better than having a poor LAMPPIX distro without dhcp support and running under XFCE). Any suggestions? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
