[opensuse] CD burning options
by Adam Jimerson 21 May '07

21 May '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Right now K3B does not want to read my CD drives, may be the fact that I put the blank cds in them while the computer was still booting, I know that the computer is reading them because they are listing in the Hardware list under YaST. So until I can restart my pc is there a way I can manually get cdrecord or one of the other cd burning command line programs to burn my cds? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGUPP4vzjH9vp3ogsRAg/uAKC88WPlOy181EH7GzruwChH+pmDVgCdF4ZB rBA6GD3E8p1xKxSpOr73egg= =YjUs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] ndiswrapper
by Danesh Daroui 21 May '07

21 May '07

Hi all, I have problem with ndiswrapper. It used to work without problem. After I reinstalled OpenSuSE, I downloaded ndiswrapper and compiled it and installed ".inf" files from Windows driver. It also shows that drivers are installed, but my wireless card will never be activated. I re-compiled ndiswrapper and it still doesn't work. I also can not uninstall drivers, installed by ndiswrapper and they still are there however I re-compiled ndiswrapper. Can anybody help?

[opensuse] time command
by Herbert Georg 20 May '07

20 May '07

Hi all, I'm trying to use the command "time" to access information about a job, but without success. The man page tells me that I can use options to time, like: time -o output-file command command-args time -v command command-args time --help but nothing of this works. All I get is (in the last example): bash: --help: command not found real 0m0.001s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s I get the same thing in all option cases. Why doesn't it accept any option, and keep interpreting the options as the commands? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem loading GNOME session
by Bikram Chatterjee 20 May '07

20 May '07

Hi, I am stuck with problem starting SuSE 10.1. The distro is a x86_64. The system required a WinXp 64bit dual boot :((. The Linux was pre-installed. After installing WinXp the boot loader required repairing in order to have XP in chain loading. After that is done successfully, I am unable to load GNOME though Failsafe GNOME is loading. The error is telling me that there was session crash after less than 10sec of previous load, and the error is written at "~/.xsession-errors" it also suggested that after the error is fixed I can get the system back (no need to reinstall :) ). The said file has: --- paste start ---- /etc/opt/gnome/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp /etc/opt/gnome/gdm/PreSession/Default: running: /usr/bin/X11/sessreg -a -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l ":0" "root" /etc/X11/xim: Checking wether an input method should be started. INPUT_METHOD is not set or empty (no user selected input method). Trying to start a default input method for the locale en_US.UTF-8 ... There is no default input method for the current locale. ---- paste end ---- Can anybody please help me with right direction to fix this thing. Thanks for the help you are going to give me :). -- Bikram -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem with Krdc
by Stephen P. Molnar 20 May '07

20 May '07

Prior to upgradinb my linux machine to a 64 bit AMD plstform running OpenSUSE 10.2 I was able to use Krdc to logon to my MS XP machine at my office. In fact, I still can from the MS XP on my LAN here in my study. Now, however, Krdc hangs as soon as it starts 'Establishing connection...' Any help in solving this problem will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Recommended Video Card?
by Jerry Houston 20 May '07

20 May '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 That's probably a pretty big question, but one I could really appreciate some help with. I got the new Linux machine up and running last night, and it went fairly well. I had problems getting the 64-bit distribution installed (I think I recall a message about it's not liking SATA DVD drives, and the symptom was that during the installation, it couldn't mount my CD), so that made the decision for me to go ahead with the 32-bit distro, just to move along. In fact, it may be quite a while before I exceed 2 GB of memory on this box, so that may end up being the best, after all. I couldn't get Linux to recognize the onboard NIC, but I had plenty of unused 10/100 PCI cards from back before we went wireless here, and the Linux box is within four feet of my router, so that problem was easily solved. And the Ethernet connection is faster than our wireless anyway. The only remaining problem is that the onboard video really sucks, because it's running in default VGA mode. Perhaps with some research, I could find out how to get Linux to recognize it, but I figured that would be wasted effort if I'm going to install a 3D card of some kind anyway. So that finally brings me to my question for this esteemed assembly: What's a good idea for a graphics card for someone who's NOT a gamer, but simply wants good responsive graphic output? And will be well supported by SuSE 10.2? With my present monitor, it only needs to support 1280x1024, but I wouldn't want to box myself in, in that regard. I guess I'm looking for a recommendation of a "best buy" in this area, and it's not something I've had a lot of experience with. In my work, and at home, I've always had computers that simply came with adequate graphics cards to start with, so I've never been in the market before. What's a good card that Linux will find easy to work with? Thanks in advance for your suggestions! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGT99rdqy7mNl00FsRAtfIAJwImihQAJBoCr1+ZX5rz5OpLiO06QCgku2t EkoxBFFRaOvV3hHbYbpzjsA= =5ubO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
