[opensuse] Uninstall programs
by Chris Arnold 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

OK, i installed 10.3 (reinstalled) with kde instead of gnome. In gnome, i could not install apps that i did not want, like evolution, pan and mc and so on......But with kde, i am finding it is much harder to not install certain apps, like amarok, kde-kopete and konversation. During the install, i unchecked "autocheck" in the software section and unchecked these apps. Now that 10.3 with kde is installed, these flippin apps are installed!!!! I have used yast->software management to uninstall amarok but get slew of dependency conflicts: #### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2007-12-28 15:12:21 #### amarok-xine has missing dependencies There are no alternative providers of amarok == 1.4.7 installed for amarok-xine-1.4.7-37.4.i586 === amarok-xine-1.4.7-37.4.i586 === amarok-1.4.7-37.2.i586[openSUSE-10.3-Updates] provides amarok == 1.4.7-37.2, but it is uninstallable.

[opensuse] How To Enable JavaScript in Akregator?
by Randall R Schulz 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

Hi, Some of the RSS feeds I subscribe to use JavaScript (one won't display at all without it) and I can't seem to get Akregator to enable it for the Web pages it displays. There's no option in the Akregator settings themselves and JavaScript is enabled globally in Konqueror and there are no domain-specific restrictions defined. Is there a way to get JavaScript enabled in Akregator? I'm running SuSE Linux 10.0 / Akregator 1.2.5 / Konqueror 3.5.5 / KDE 3.5.5 "release 45.2".

Re: Success, but only for several minutes ==> Re: [opensuse] problems on setting wireless USB (D-Link) DWL-G122-revC
by Lincoln Rutledge 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

On some wireless chipsets, they have to be reset. If unplugging/replugging doesn't work, then do a rmmod <yourwirelessmodule>; sleep 10; modprobe <yourwirelessmodule>. That actually forces the kernel to reinitialize the driver for your unit, kind of like uninstalling/reinstalling a driver in winders. Except it takes 2 seconds instead of several minutes, and no reboots :) Linc Lincoln Rutledge Network Engineer OSC Networking 800-627-6420 >>> "Matt T." <Matt(a)boons.net> 12/27/07 12:31 PM >>> On Thursday 27 December 2007, Adinda Praditya wrote: > On Dec 17, 2007 9:39 AM, Matt T. <Matt(a)boons.net> wrote: > > - Install the rt2x00 module for your kernel; probably a reboot is helpful > > after that > > > > - do not load ndiswrapper, unload it if needed, and make sure it does not > > get loaded when rebooting.

I had to disable and enable again wirelss, or even to completely restart networkmanager, dunno anymore. However before I could investigate further, the problem disappeared. There is a chance that my regular upgrades to the latest SuSE released software, including the kernel, did make the problem go away without further effort :) Sorry to have no other advice, it just works and works.

[opensuse] Finding bugs in OpenSuse Bugzilla - Mime Type Errors in Konqueror
by Philippe Landau 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

This problem exists since years and thousands struggle with it in different distributions: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/mandriva-30/could-not-find-mime-typ… In Konqueror file associations are incomplete in OpenSuse 10.3, so i changed .flv handling adding VLC to open those files (right-click on file, Properties, click icon after "Type:"). Since i get this error message popping up every time i hover above a .html file: "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream" Is it possible to search OpenSuse Bugzilla for a phrase ? I get over 200 results: https://bugzilla.novell.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevan… Kind regards Philippe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

28 Dec '07

I am installing 10.3 and i do not want totem (i want to use mplayer). When i get to the "software" section during the install, i uncheck totem and it will create a bunch of dependency conflicts and that unchecks a bunch of need things for gnome.

[opensuse] Encrypted Root Partition
by Kai Ponte 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

I have been studying the article at http://en.opensuse.org/Encrypted_Root_File_System_with_SUSE_HOWTO as to how to encrypt the root partition when installing. I'm about to upgrade my main laptop from 10.2 to 10.3 and plan to encrypt both root and /home. I do have a live CD so I can use this instead of the method described in the article. Any ideas how I'd go about it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] MySQL GUI frontends

I've played around with MySQL on the command line, creating an addressbook database and importing some data. I'd like to use a GUI frontend to add/edit the data, but I'm not sure what's available in linux. Any suggestions?
