[opensuse] Excellent news: VirtualBox full virtualization OSS solution for Linux!
by Alexey Eremenko 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

hi susers! At last ! The virtualization revolution in Linux happens ! Until now, Linux had no quality virtualization available. At least no OSS solution existed, that is also user-friendly. Yesterday the world changed with the introduction of Innotek's VirtualBox (dual-licensed under GPL and proprietary license). This solution feels like professional VirtualPC/VMware Workstation: allows full integration of guest OSes (mouse pointer, etc...), works with Linux and Windows 2000/XP guests and hosts, and has a nice Qt3-based GUI. And it's Free ! Unfortunately AMD64 arch and Win9x OS are not supported at all. Not host and not guest. This solution is *much* more stable than Qemu/Xen/Bochs whatever the OSS world has today. (through it's still less stable than MS Virtual PC 2004) It is also *very* fast: Windows 2000 Guest installed & run faster than under VMware/VirtualPC. So please try it, if you like VMware and emulators in general. I seriously want this solution to be included in the main repository for openSUSE 10.3. Such high-quality OSS software, developed by a commercial company is a real rarity and a big asset for our community. First commercial/OSS x86 emulator for Linux - VirtualBox 1.3.2 !!! http://www.virtualbox.org/ http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualbox_fedora_centos_opensuse http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Guest_OSes benchmark VirtualBox vs Qemu+KQemu vs VMware http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=56 What do you think of it? -Alexey Eremenko. 7.2.2007. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SubDomain REJECTING ... messages
by Peter Bradley 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

I'm getting the following messages in /var/log/messages, and I notice that phpinfo() now cannot recognise any of the installed extensions (like MySql). Is it something to do with AppArmor again? Either way, can anyone advise on what I should do? Many thanks.

[opensuse] Disappearing KDE panel after installing patches
by Jerry Feldman 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Yesterday after installing some patches via Zen, my KDE panel disappeared. I've had this occur before after a KDE patch was installed, and normally I restart the window and display managers (ctrl-alt-backspace, init 3, or logout) and things usually com back. This did not work, so I deleted by ~/.kde. Once I logged back in through the session manager, the panel returned, and I configured it the way I wanted, set up my 4 desktops with separate backgrounds, and loaded my applications that I normally keep running in my desktops. While I'm not 100% sure of what is killing the panel, I was just wondering if anyone else had seen this. I don't have time to debug it until the weekend, but I will try to configure the desktops and panels, but not run the applications, then go step by step. By default, kde tries to load what was previously loaded, but the first step would be to set up an empty home session. My desktops are: 1: claws && firefox 2: jpilot 3: empty - normally Xemacs 4: 2 KSSH sessions to the Boston Linux servers. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf(a)blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9

by Nikolay Derkach 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hello, Does anyone managed to configure spell checker in opera on _64bit_ system? For me it seems opera/aspell(?) bug on x86_64. The corresponding bug #232937 was filed. Also any testing on x86_64 systems is welcome: just install aspell, aspell-32bit, aspell-en(or any other dictionary). Thanks for any feedback. -- Regards, Nikolay Derkach

[opensuse] Kaffeine is being annoying
by Jay Smith 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

So my kaffeine is acting weird. It has something to do with the Xine Engine. When I activate it, Kaffeine crashes. I can use all other non-xine functions of Kaffeine when when I try to change the parameters or start playing a movie, crash. Any ideas? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Suse 10.1 and Hearbeat stopping resources
by Rejaine Monteiro 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi, This is not a Suse discussion, but maybe you can help me with this.. I'm using Suse 10.1 and heartbeat-2.0.7 with older ha.cf method config (not using xml files) All works fine... My only problem, is when a service fails to start (or stop) For example, if apache2 fails, all the other services will be stopped too. Simulation: #My haresources: server1 192.168.0.1 drbddisk::home Filesystem::/dev/drbd0::/home::reiserfs apache2 spamd clamd cron #My ha.cf: debugfile /var/log/ha-debug logfile /var/log/ha-log logfacility local0 keepalive 2 deadtime 20 warntime 10 initdead 20 udpport 694 baud 19200 auto_failback on node server1 node server2 respawn hacluster /usr/lib/heartbeat/ipfail The problem: My apache2 is misconfigured and fail to start. So, all others services in haresource will be stoped by heartbeat and server1 go to foreing mode: #ha-log Filesystem[15478]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 INFO: Filesystem Success ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 info: Running /etc/init.d/apache2 start ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 ERROR: Return code 1 from /etc/init.d/apache2 ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 CRIT: Giving up resources due to failure of apache2 ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 info: Releasing resource group: server1 192.168.0.1 drbddisk::home Filesystem::/dev/drbd0::/home::reiserfs apache2 clamd spamd cron ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:52 info: Running /etc/init.d/cron stop ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:40:03 info: Running /etc/init.d/clamd stop ResourceManager[14765]: 2007/02/15_14:39:53 info: Running /etc/init.d/spamd stop heartbeat[14593]: 2007/02/15_14:39:58 info: Local Resource acquisition completed.

However, all other services will be stoped too and server1 goes to standby mode. What can I do to ignore apache2 (or others services) failures? I can't I can't leave my server down just because apache2 (or others less important services) failed to start... I used Suse 10.0 with heartbeat 1.2 and don't have this problem ... Any tips? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

No Microsoft would never ever, or at least not for a while, make it to where Linux and Microsft were 100% compatible. I meant on a server side. It is hard for businesses to have a Linux and Windows server and some don't have the time to learn SAMBA that some of us would. Hence companies like Centeris existing. I think the virtualization thing is a stretch for both MS and Novell but we'll see how it happens. I find it interesting that they opt to use XEN Instead of like, VMWare. > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Couldn't print to shared HP DeskJet 3745
by Adrianus Wasis 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi, In my office network, there is a HP DeskJet 3745 connected at a windows XP workstation. I am using Opensuse10.2 on my P-III PC. I have succesfully add that printer in my suse. But, when I print a file, no print out result, printer seems to receive data but then no printing. In my opensuse I use driver for HP Deskjet 3740, becasue no driver for 3745 at the list. Is it because of unproper driver? I have succesfully connected and print out to HP LaserJet 6L which is at a remote Windows98 workstation. Thanks.
