[opensuse] After nvidia update I could longer load nvidia drivers
by Roger Dedrick 27 Dec '07

27 Dec '07

I expected to someone else post a message about this but maybe I am alone with this problem? I had been running 10.3 with a GeForce 7300GT video card with great success. A few days ago the updater applet included updated nvidia drivers in the list of available updates.After the update compiz started acting weird. I tried to restart the xserver but could not get it to start. I reset the video with Yast. I tried re installing the one click nvidia drivers but if I run the commands to run Compiz the xserver would run. So after a lot of reading a looking around realizing I am in over my head in understanding this and thinking maybe there is some baggage causing trouble and I would be further ahead (at least time wise) to do a clean install since my home is on another partition. That done I was in the same boat unable to get the drivers working and with a slow desktop and unable to run a few programs without the 3D. I looked around the nvidia site and found drivers dated from Sept. To install them I found that had to install the source files for the kernel first. Now all is well again running on the I assume an older kernel. So I guess this message is a heads up to anyone about to pull the trigger on that particular update. When I a started to write it I had not got things working yet.But I am still wondering what the heck happened here. -- roger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Compiz or not
by Jerry Houston 26 Dec '07

26 Dec '07

According to one of my books that's specific to SuSE 10.3, I've done all that's necessary to enable Xgl and Compiz, and the Gnome desktop effects module confirms that my graphics card is suitable, that 3-D is enabled. In KDE, I'm able to run the configuration tool, and it appears to be working. However, I can't get a Compiz session started. When I go to the appropriate place in personal settings to choose a session manager, only kwin appears, in a combo box that is grayed and disabled. Is there some extra step that's commonly overlooked, that makes Compiz show up in the session manager selections? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] Modem working on openSuSE 10.2

I don't think the line is busy since in windows I have no problem to connect through this modem. In kppp, the only issue is to change /dev/modem to /dev/sda1, which is the USB port on my PC where the modem is connected. However, it seems to me that I am not able to communicate with my modem.

[opensuse] keeping a copy of installed rpms
by Dave Plater 26 Dec '07

26 Dec '07

Is there a way of automatically keeping a copy of everything yast installs from online repositories? At the moment I have to download manually and restart yast after refreshing (createrepo) my local repo. Its very useful for people like me that are not only poor (limited cap ) and like to do dangerous things with their system. I run os 10.3 with some 11 alpha software as well. believe it or not I didn't have any problems with Beagle but I didn't use it so I've uninstalled it anyway.

I used it to get my RaLink PCI (rt6100) working in my desktop. Maybe it could help with your pcmcia card. http://linux.wordpress.com/2007/10/06/opensuse-103-and-ralink-rt2x00-based-… It is specific for SuSE 10.3 as their native rtpci would not work, no how, no way!
