[opensuse] ATI Remote Wonder range
by Sunny 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

Hi, I got ATI Remote Wonder USB remote control working in 10.2 x86_64. Actually the module is part of the kernel now, and everything works out of the box. I also tried the LIRC implementation - lirc_atiusb module. It works as well. I just hit a very weird behavior - the range in which the remote is accepted is like 2 meters. If I move the remote more than 2 meters away from the receiver, it does not receive signal. The problem is, that if I use the same device on Windows, the range is like 7-8 meters. I just can not figure out how this is possible, but these are the facts. I'll post this on GATOS project bug tracker, but I see there a lot of open cases, which are not answered in an year, so most probably this is not the right place to ask, as the driver is already part of the kernel. I'll also try the lirc mailing lists. So, if someone have any success with this device under suse, and can give some ideas, please do so :) Thanks in advance, Cheers -- 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] Yast bad manners
by Carlos E. R. 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Situation: 10.2, gnome. I fire up Yast, then software management (for instance). As I know it is going to take some time, I minimize it and continue typing elsewhere... and hey! Yast pops up un-minimized, grabbing the focus, and not yet ready, as it is loading catalogs. I minimize it again... and again it un-minimizes automatically. This did not happen with 10.1. Three times at least has Yast the bad manners of not staying put, minimized out of the way :-( Is this a bug? Is it intentional (aka feature)? Can I somehow tell gnome not to allow this pesky behaviour? To be sure, it is not the only app that does this - OO does similarly - but today I'm picking on yast O:-) - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFF2Y8KtTMYHG2NR9URAkhvAJ416eJ6/EiML/AT1mRLGBpERChgMACdFF1W g6AB56qUYSF6Z/4DzG8ryZA= =7/xL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Database Frontend for linux & Postgres
by Art Fore 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

Does anyone know of an opensource database frontend for Postgresql database along the lines of MSAccess? I have tried the following with no success Rekall Try to open a table or view or even properties thereof, and it crashes. This is on Suse 10.2 with its Rekall from the dvdk. Knode Cannot even do find/replace on fields, Menu items are there, but they don't work. ditto for OOoBase. PgAdmin Cannot do find/replace. The latest version has the menu options for that, but it does not work. Apparently Wxwidgets that is based on is broken. Cannot do lower case to upper case conversions that I could find without taking a course in SQL. Even Access has problems with ODBC, or maybe it is Windows. Open the postgres database on localhost using Access with ODBC and do the find/replace query, the convert 3 fields to uppercase. Close out Access, Change ODBC setup to look at remote host database. Open Access. It is still looking at the localhost database eventhough ODBC is pointing to remote host. Close Access, reboot WinXP (running under Parallels), then open Access again. Now it is finally looking at the correct database. Does not say much for Microsoft interoperability and they supposedly invented ODBC.

[opensuse] ports powered after shutdown
by Tom Burt 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

I have recently upgraded my kernel to 2.6.20-20070216143046-default. When I shut down my PC the light on my mouse stays on, and also the LED on my USB webcam stays on. This does not happen with 2.6.18.2-34-default which I still have, and didn't happen with 2.6.20 rc6 either, which I upgraded from. Does anyone have an idea on how to get those lights turn off when shutting down? My motherboard is an Asus M2N-E, mouse is a MS optical one plugged into a PS/2 port with an adapter, webcam is a Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000. Googling around I only found forum msgs referriing to BIOS settings but since my issue depends on kernel version (without making any changes in the BIOS setup), I don't think those are relevant. BTW all "wake up on event x" settings are off on my PC. Tom -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 10.3 Alpha 1
by Kenneth Schneider 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

Can someone tell me if the openSUSE-10.2GM_10.3Alpha1-DVD-i386.delta.iso will work with the 10.2 boxed set DVD or must it run against the 10.2GM that was downloaded? I'll try it if no one knows for sure. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi everybody, if I suspend to disk I loose the USB hub. I also tried to unload the related modules before suspending: SUSPEND_MODULES="button uhci_hcd ehci_hcd usbhid usbcore" The messages (see below) report an error related to uhci_hcd and HCRESET, I googled the problem but I couldn't find a solution.

[opensuse] Help
by Greg Smith 20 Feb '07

20 Feb '07

Hello all! My name is Greg Smith, and I have been fiddling with Linux for the last several years. I really like Linux, and am partial to the SuSE distro. I would really like to migrate all of my home computers to Linux, as I am (and have been for a long while) fed up with Microsoft's bullshit. But so far, I have had problems in this area. So......... Is there a resource out there that can explain Linux's ins and outs in layman's terms? I have no problems with trying to learn the ins and outs, but most sources I can find are either TOO basic, or way over my head. Can anyone recommend a good starting point for my education? I am certainly willing to learn, even if it takes a few years, to get up to speed on Linux. I am just looking for a course of action, and am lost. Any guidance would be appreciated! Thanks for your time and consideration! Best Regards, Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
