[opensuse] C++ IDE
by Danesh Daroui 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Hi all, Is there any famous, robust and efficient IDE for C++ under Linux (SuSE)? I have used gcc for a long time without using an IDE but I need an IDE for C++ which I think is supported by gc++ (I am not sure). I am using GNOME, so I need something else than KDevelop...

[opensuse] Anyone with working WinTV PVR350?
by Yas say 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

I guess I was in this list 10 years ago when it started. Unfortunately although I used Linux more than a decade it still eludes me mainly because I hate computers in general. The question that lingers in my mind is: why does Linux still have the same bugs that existed years ago coming back again and again? One problem I have at boot: ****************************************************** * Warning: The dma on your hard drive is turned off. * * This may really slow down the fsck process. * ****************************************************** I put PIIX module in initrd, compiled custom kernel, googled all around to no avail. Also changed PIIX=y in .config file. hdparm -d1 /dev/hdb works a minute and dma changes to (0) by itself. 2nd problem: Everything seems fine with my Hauppauge WinTV 350 board but TV never works. ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== ivtv: version 0.8.0 (tagged release) loading ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.18.2-34-default SMP mod_unload 586 REGPARM gcc-4.1 ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info between ivtv: the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines, along with ivtv: any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist. ivtv0: Autodetected Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 card (cx23415 based) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (262144 bytes) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw firmware (262144 bytes) tuner 0-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tuner 0-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #0) saa7115 0-0021: saa7115 found @ 0x42 (ivtv i2c driver #0) saa7127 0-0044: saa7129 found @ 0x88 (ivtv i2c driver #0) msp3400 0-0040: MSP4448G-A2 found @ 0x80 (ivtv i2c driver #0) ivtv0: Encoder revision: 0x02050032 ivtv0: Decoder revision: 0x02020023 ivtv0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG ivtv0: Registered device video32 for encoder YUV ivtv0: Registered device vbi0 for encoder VBI ivtv0: Registered device video24 for encoder PCM audio ivtv0: Registered device radio0 for encoder radio ivtv0: Registered device video16 for decoder MPEG ivtv0: Registered device vbi8 for decoder VBI ivtv0: Registered device vbi16 for decoder VOUT ivtv0: Registered device video48 for decoder YUV ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg firmware (155648 bytes) ivtv0: Initialized Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350, card #0 ivtv: ==================== END INIT IVTV ==================== lsmod | grep ivtv: ivtv 175248 0 firmware_class 14080 1 ivtv cx2341x 15108 1 ivtv tveeprom 18448 1 ivtv videodev 26880 1 ivtv v4l1_compat 16388 2 ivtv,videodev v4l2_common 26240 6 msp3400,saa7115,tuner,ivtv,cx2341x,videodev i2c_algo_bit 12808 2 ivtv,i2c_i810 i2c_core 25216 7 msp3400,saa7127,saa7115,tuner,ivtv,tveeprom,i2c_algo_bit degan:# xawtv /dev/video This is xawtv-3.95, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.18.2-34) /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway no way to get: 384x288 32 bit TrueColor (LE: bgr-) no way to get: 384x288 32 bit TrueColor (LE: bgr-) degan:# v4l-conf v4l-conf: using X11 display :0.0 dga: version 2.0 mode: 1024x768, depth=24, bpp=32, bpl=4096, base=0x48000000 /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support I tried to open any TV application but can't open /dev/video. however, ls -l /dev/vi* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video -> video0 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video0 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 16 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video16 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 24 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video24 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 32 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video32 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 48 2007-03-18 15:56 /dev/video48 and several other problems with a dualboot system that works 100% under Windows XP.

[opensuse] Problem with Firefox Finding JRE
by Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

I am running Firefox 2.0.2 on a 64 bit openSUSE 10.2 system (the package is part of the OS distribution). JRE is installed in the defualt subdirectories /usr/java/jrel.5.0_11. Whenever I have to access an application that requires java I get the message: 'Additional plugins ar required to display all the media on this page.' Then Firefox tells me that the following plugins are available Java Runatime Environment but the Plugin Service Finder tells me that JRE is not available and we go around and around in a circle of diminishing radius. Whst do I need to change? Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Recent Radeon without fglrx driver
by Hans du Plooy 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Hi guys, When I installed SUSE 10.1/10.2 it setup my notebook's Radeon m200 (X300 in marketing speak) RV370 with the radeon driver (from X.org). 3D definitely did work - not very fast, but it did work. I loaded the binary driver for various reasons (performance and some shortcomings), but for some reason, as soon as I load the fglrx driver, I cannot ajust the brightness of my screen anymore, which is bad for battery life. I want to switch back to the DRI drivers, but I don't have a backup of my xorg.conf. I seem to have 3D working (I'm getting the right FPS with glxgears), but something is missing because glxinfo still says DRI is disabled and apps like Google Earth don't even get as far as complaining about OpenGL. Is there anyone who has 3D working properly on a newer Radeon with the DRI drivers (*not* the ATI binary drivers)? Would you please send me your xorg.conf and X.org.0.log?

[opensuse] Failed to load nvidia kernel module on Xen Kernel
by Jeffery Fernandez 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Hi, While running the default kernel on my OpenSuse 10.2 I have my nvidia graphics card working with the nvidia libraries I have installed. But when I reboot into a Xen Kernel, I get the error message saying: "Failed to load nvidia kernel module" and I cannot start X. I know that it means the X config says to use the nvidia drivers but the nvidia drivers are not loaded into the Xen kernel. Now my question is how can I load the nvidia drivers into the kernel? Do I have to re-compile the Xen-kernel to do so? Or is it just a matter of loading the drivers through a command? I don't want to disable the nvidia entry in the X config as I need the graphics card to work properly to do my work. cheers, Jeffery -- Powered by openSUSE 10.2 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.18.8-0.1-default KDE: 3.5.5 "release 45.2" 11:38pm up 0:13, 5 users, load average: 1.48, 1.45, 1.03

[opensuse] Clone an existing webserver into a virtual machine
by Johannes Nohl 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Dear list, I have a webserver with SSH access only (no physical access). I want to try changes in configuration. I think the easiest way would be setting up a test system, rather than trying on a production system. I'd like to use virtualbox setting up a clone of the webserver. But how do I do? How do I copy the whole files while running the system? How to get the bootloader to my virtual machine, at last? Any ideas?

[opensuse] SUSE 9.0 iso images?
by Ben Rosenberg 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the iso images for SUSE 9.0? I have to do some testing and one of our production platforms still uses this version. I don't have the disks or iso images because this machine existed prior to me joining my current group at work. And of course they don't have them either. Any help would rock.

[opensuse] public and private key locations
by Carl Hartung 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

Hi All, I created a GnuPG key pair a few years ago on my SuSE 8.2 box. I've since upgraded, added/reconfigured drives and partitions and reinstalled SUSE countless times and I *thought* I'd managed to save the key pair, under ~/.gnupg/, by copying the entire directory to a backup location and copying it back to my home directory, as needed. Now I'm trying to use the *private* key in another application... I'm supposed to be able to browse to and select it... but it seems I'm only able to locate the *public* key. Where is the private key supposed to be stored? TIA & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
