[opensuse] Remote User Directory
by ka1ifq 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

I did some googling but did not find what I was looking for, probably not using the the right terms. I have 2 machines A) suse 10.2 B) suse 10.1, I would like to have an account on the B machine that uses / shares a home directory with an account with the same name on the A machine so I can be able to read my email from either. Both machines are on an internal network. I didn't really want to do a remote desktop..

[opensuse] suse10.2 and internet
by Geoff Davis 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

HELP, I am trying to install linux suse 10.2 on my computer. I Know nothing about linux but need to learn. The install went easy. However, suse will not recognise my adsl modem so I have no internet access. In windows there is a program to setup internet and tell the computer whether you have dialup or dsl etc... I do not see it in the suse system. I reloaded the software 3 times, in the install process it will not find my modem. I know the answer is probably simple but it is beyond me. Please help?

[opensuse] NTLM support for KMail
by spafbnerf 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi all, I can't seem to find a cyrus-sasl-ntlm package for OpenSUSE (10.2), which is necessary for KMail to have NTLM support. Why is it that this is absent from the main distro?- Patents? And from Guru/Packman?- Lack of interest? :( Best Regards, OpenSUSE Newbie ;) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bluetooth headset vs. SUSE 9.1 (!) Pro.
by pelibali 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi, Various reasons made me stuck with SUSE 9.1 Pro (kernel 2.6.5) on my laptop and I'm happy with it: except my BT headset everything just works! (On the same hardware, testing of openSUSE 10.x series was also done and e.g. with 10.2 it was just 5 minutes to get the very same Logitech BT headset work. In general it's linux and btsco-compatible.) To make my headset-installation story lasting several months short: works, but... On the latest official YOU-kernel I wasn't able to compile _any_ btsco-releases and through Google I found out that kernel-patches (and general bluetooth update?) will be needed. First alsa (packman), the bluez-libs and -utils were updated and then with a slightly modified btsco patch (for kernel 2.6.7; http://www.gargan.org/linux/snd-bt-sco/kernel-2.6.7-8.24-08-04.patch ) recompiled my complete kernel. Now the snd-bt-sco kernel module can be loaded and the BT-headset works now, but there is a crucial problem: only the btsco version 0.2 can be used, which takes the voice settings as 0x0040 and this makes the quality (extremely) bad. Btsco version 0.3, which in fact compiles and installs, but is not able to use the 0x0040 setting as defined by the kernel module; it rather says that 0x0060 should be used. With the older module loaded that particular 0x0060 setting doesn't let the BT headset emit anything:( Even no background noises, as it just had e.g. with the working btsco-0.2. So the whole stuff considered to be useless at the end. The readme on the above site stated that the patch should work with the "new" 0.3 version, but it didn't in my case... I'm confident, that after all of this there should be a way to get btsco-0.3 working as 0x0060 on my laptop, just having no further idea, how! My concern is that with the 2.6.7 patch I miss the steps "in-between" and simply some older components of my 2.6.5 kernel didn't get updated/fixed. I also read about bluetooth 1.1 and 2.x, which could cause the above 0x0040 working, but 0x0060 not anomaly; recently I started to look around for git-patches to investigate. I would specially appreciate, if anyone using such an old SUSE 9.x system with a working BT headset or simply knowing the bluetooth stack more would comment this. I'm sorry for the long post; skipped the complete (hardware) details to make it shorter and so general as it is just possible.

[opensuse] USB Mounting to Static Mount Points in 10.2
by Istvan Gabor 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hello all: How can I modify SUSE 10.2 automount so that USB drives would be mounted to static points (eg /media/USBdrive) ? There is an article at http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Mounting_to_Static_Mount_Points but it also says: "Mounting a USB stick to a static mount point (this does not work on >= 10.0 ):" It does not say what works in 10.1/10.2.

[opensuse] [Solved] Sound not working due to missing group membership
by Darren Freeman 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi all, I just did a fresh install to OpenSUSE 10.2 DVD, and found none of my applications could detect a sound output device, yet the config tools showed my card to be correctly set up and could output test sound. It turned out I wasn't a member of the "audio" group, and in fact many of the groups I was a member of in previous versions I wasn't a member of any more. Just add yourself to the "audio" group in YaST->Security and Users->User and Group Administration. Also add "audio" to the default groups, with Expert Options->New User Defaults, in the Secondary Groups field. Similarly with any other group you think you should be in but aren't. Have fun, Darren -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
