Looks sane. If you're running KDE you're missing an update for KPowersave. I am not sure if the online update is already available. But you can grab the packages at [1].

[opensuse] Can't see network printer
by Mike Adolf 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

I have an HP 5180 printer directly connected to a LAN port of my router. The router is set for dynamic ips. All machines booting to XP see the printer. After I went through the SUSE 10.2 printer set up (for network printer) and tried to test or print, I got an error message stating I was using a different spool. I don't really know what is going on.

RE: [opensuse] The smbfs/cifs fiasco in 10.2
by James D. Parra 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

What is the current thinking on the smbfs/cifs fiasco in 10.2? Like many other people, when I try to use smbmount I get the message: suillus:~ # smbmount //lactarius/ext-backup mnt Password: ERROR: smbfs filesystem not supported by the kernel Please refer to the smbmnt(8) manual page smbmnt failed: 255 smbmount worked just fine in previous releases. Some research told me that I should be using cifs instead, and I got this (from a root shell): suillus:~ # mount.cifs //lactarius/dext-backup.mnt mount error: could not find target server. TCP name lactarius/ext-backup not found No ip address specified and hostname not found ~~~~ Try the following; mount -t cifs -o username=yourusername,workgroup=yourdomain //windowsbox/sharename /mnt/yourmountname You'll be prompted for a password. ~James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Krdc Problem in 64Bit System
by Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

I have upgraded my linux machine to an AMD 64bitCPU running openSUSE 10.2. Krdc used to work on my 32bit system. In fact, it still does as long as I attempt to access the MS Win machine on my LAN. But when I attempt to access the Win XP machine at my office Krdc hangs on the establishing connection screen (I have to use xkill to stop it). Finally, I can access my office computer from the WinXP machine on my study LAN without any problems. I will be most appreciate of any assistance. thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Ripping a DVD
by Adam Jimerson 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

I need to know is there a good program that I can use to rip a DVD? I have K3B 1 rc 5 but every time I rip a DVD using that the end result is a video clip where the video and audio does not match up, usually due to when the video freezes within the first couple of seconds of play. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Lenovo Power Buttion doesn't work
by Lívio Cipriano 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

Hi all, I've a Lenovo Z60m and installed openSuSE 10.2. The strange thing is that when I press the power button to turn it off, it doesn't react. All other ACPI functions and buttons work: suspend to ram, to disk, working on battery and ac,etc. I've looking and change some the sysconfig variables, but the situation remains. Any suggestion? -- Regards, Lívio Cipriano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] opensuse-factory missing libxfcegui4-devel
by Horst G. Burkhardt III 04 Mar '07

04 Mar '07

Hi. I recently upgraded to -factory, because a) my box isn't production, and b) I like to have bleeding edge software so as to test it and thus better the community. Unfortunately, your bugzilla is refusing to let me sign up using my browser (links) and I refuse to use any other browser due to incredibly low memory. I have been trying to install xfce 4.4.0 on my system, to no avail. whenever I try to install xfce* from the -factory repository with smart, I get the following error message: error: Can't install xfce-mcs-manager-devel-4.4.0-5@i586: no package provides libxfcegui4-devel >= 4.3 This has been continuing for more than a week now, and I really believe it shoudl be dealt with. Before I start a DE flamewar inadvertently, let me state - neither KDE nor GNOME is acceptable for me, and twm/fvwm/mwm are not my cup of tea. I just find Xfce reasonable and comfortable. Any help in resolving my issue (preferably by someone fixing the package dependencies) would be greatly appreciated. -- /---"Horst G.

I installed 10.2 Sorry, but I have no idea what "a senior moment" means.
