[opensuse] Remote desktop on 10.2
by Dan 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Has anyone got this working? I'm trying to remote in using windows/tighvnc client and I cannot get it working. I have gone into sax2 and enabled remote management but it will not connect. Is there somewhere else I need to enable something to make it work? I have a server at work running suse enterprise server and it works fine on there.

[opensuse] plotting ab results
by Martin Mielke 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hi all, maybe this is a little bit OT... anyway maybe someone here has already experienced with this before and can point me to the right source... Please, read this first: ---- ab is a tool for benchmarking your Apache Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server. It is designed to give you an impression of how your current Apache installation performs. This especially shows you how many requests per second your Apache installation is capable of serving. ---- so, I'm using this one to generate CSV values. Now some big boss wants statistics and graphs to be plotted and generate reports with a reasonable quality. From the ab --help: ---- -g gnuplot-fileWrite all measured values out as a 'gnuplot' or TSV (Tab separate values) file. This file can easily be imported into packages like Gnuplot, IDL, Mathematica, Igor or even Excel. The labels are on the first line of the file.---- Before attempting any implementation with gnuplot, I'd like to know if you know of a good graphing & reporting tool that can be feeded with those CSV files...

Hi Guys, I am trying to get my .nanorc to work, I looked for the nanorc.sample, but I don't see one in the /usr/share/doc file. I wrote my own .nanorc, but it not reading it. Where can I tell it to read it. I see that in man file something about SYSCONFDIR/nanorc, where is that file? -- -- Command, n.: Statement presented by a human and accepted by a computer in such a manner as to make the human feel as if he is in control. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] Error occurred while creating the catalog - Unknown error: unable to copy media directory
by robermann 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hi all, an update: as promised, I kept searching and... I buied a Linux journal with an OpenSuse DVD. This time, that worked! I again cannot understand what changed; the only reason I can see is the different media type. How can I make sure about the new DVD having the same content of my other DVD not working? Cross-checking the MD5 of all files (!) ? By the way: I updated my Suse 9.3 with OpenSuse 10.2. It seems all worked well, with the exception of printer settings (and Samba still works :) ).

[opensuse] umount automounted media
by Hans de Faber 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hello everybody, I have a little problem dismounting automounted media (CDROM). If a device is automounted within a user account I want to dismount it in the same useraccount. If I try to dismount the device I get the message "The device /dev/hdc is not in fstab and You are not root". Checking the properties of this device learns that the user is correct. Checking the umount command tells that the set uid property is set. What else can be wrong ??? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

I see the KDE print manager is gone in 10.2? Replaced by die "default" cups web-interface. Was there something wrong with the KDE one?

[opensuse] Losing Evolution passwords on 10.2
by Rich G 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Problem: Evolution constantly prompts for mail account passwords when retrieving mail - even though the setting is to remember passwords. Background: I had a fully functional 10.0 system with several email identities. Each identity has the Remember password box checked. I bought a new drive & installed 10.2 on it and copied my home directory from the old drive to the new one (drag-n-drop via Konqueror). Now, Evolution constantly prompts for each mail identity password when retrieving mail. I looked in my archives and did not see anything on this. Has anyone else seen this??

[opensuse] Printer issues
by Richard 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Epson Color Photo RX600, test prints fine, with colors, but output for every print job has solid black for all colors and grayscale. What am I missing? I tried looking at CUPS manager but did not see anything amiss, like a checkbox for no color. Most recent is Kontact calendar, prints solid boxes for all date lines, title boxes, and so on. Printer driver in YAST printer setup shows RX600 with simplified Gutenprint. I am sure it is something simple, which is good, as am I. Thanks for any guidance.
