[opensuse] DVD player for good screencaps
by Felix Miata 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

Are there some keybindings for Kaffeine that don't show up in the menus or help? I can't find frame advance or frame reverse. If they don't exist, is there some other player that provides this basic standalone DVD player function? -- "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.

sorry, I just hit reply all without thinking about deleting the old messages. I meant to say isos didn't work but rpms came out. I tried to use the k3b rpms listed in packman and listed in openSuSE repositories. I had the same problem so I thought compiling might give me a different result. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Multiple Monitor Support
by Rohan NARULA 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

I am running 2 NVidia Geforce 7600 cards on Opensuse 10.2. I want to support four monitors but KDE just detects 2. I tried adding more monitors through the xorg.conf but there was an error there, possibly because the BusID for the device (Nvidia) that supports two monitors is the same, atleast that is what I thought. Anyone else has any suggestions? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] (incomplete) list of possibilities (and impossibilities) to play mp3 on SuSE 10.2

The point is that if an individual does not like the current policy then they are forced to abandon it or replace it with something better. What we are trying to accomplish here (before you so rudely broke in with irrelevant ranting) is to convince Zhang Weiwu that if he does not like the current mp3 out-of-box situation with Suse then he must figure out a solution that works for him or stop using mp3. My "personal choice" is to stop using mp3--- and I have. I am not in a position to force you to do the same, nor would I spend even a split second of time trying to convince you. However; I do feel that Ogg will eventually replace it as an open standard. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Kmail, groupware solution, what is recommended?
by Verner Kjærsgaard 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

Dear list and gurus :-) Say you have an organization (a school) with 15 teachers. All using SuSE10.2/LTSP4.2 and Kmail. Every teacher has his own list of contacts (E-mail adresses) in Kmail. This is not easy to handle. Can Kmail either self or indirectly make use of a remote, centrally managed adressbook or something? If not, any recommendations as to a good OpenSource groupware webbased thing? Other suggestions? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Peerguardian functionality wanted
by Jan Karjalainen 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

I'd like to know if there's a way to implement Peerguardian (http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/) type of funtion in Linux/openSUSE? What I want is to have a regularly updated blocklists from (http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/) and implement these rules (after converting them with Blocklist Converter) in the firewall/iptables. These lists tend to grow big, 5-6 MBs if all IP ranges are merged into one. Therefore I'd like to also know if there's any performance penalty during operation. During start I can understand if it takes longer, but it's the operational performance I'm interested in. As a sidenote, on WinXP the Peerguardian program with the above mentioned list shows as 0-1% in Task Manager, which is negligible. Is there any script/program out there that fills my needs, or do I have to study up on Bash scripting and iptables? /J -- "In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.
