[opensuse] xgl not working for 10.1 (Gnome)
by Jonathan Puthoff 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Hi! I am trying to get the 3D desktop working on a brand-new install of 10.1. The installation of xgl and compiz packages (fresh ones!) worked fine and so I did Control Center -> Desktop Effects -> Enable Desktop Effects. The display informs me that my card is supported, but when I restart the display (via a logout/login) my windows are messed up (lack titlebars. . .) and nothing seems to work correctly. Disabling the 3D desktop puts everything back just fine. I am using an Intel 945 GM card. . .is this perhaps the problem? jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] multiple proxies in kde
by Kostas Georgokitsos 26 Feb '07

I have 2 proxies in my network and would like to let smome applications use one and some the other, particularly with amarok. is there a general way to do that? Amarok had no special configuration option. Alternatively, setting no proxy at all for amarok would also be ok.

It's not meant to be much more than eye candy but still, it's cool. Vista's Aero can barely compete with that. Vista's Aero is eye candy as well but not meant to help much.

[opensuse] Bluetooth Mobile Phone Connectivity
by Andrei Verovski (aka MacGuru) 26 Feb '07

26 Feb '07

Hi, Anyone have been able to use mobile phone with bluetooth (i.e. Nokia 6310) on SuSE 10.2? Its seems like bluetooth services are running, but there is nowhere to connect to mobile phone. The questions are: 1) How to pair KDE bluetooth services with mobile phone? I have several dialogs in KBluetooth D, one of them seem to scrambled because of software bug, and I was not able to find something like "Discover & Connect". 2) Is there any program to send/manage SMS/MMS and address book that really works? Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

There is a bug filed for that.
