RE: [opensuse] Microsoft claims software like Linux violates its patents - May 28, 2007
by James D. Parra 18 May '07

18 May '07

This is a good article; http://www.itwire.com.au/content/view/12212/53/ "Even if hypothetically there are patent infringements in the Linux kernel, then the open source community would do the right thing and remove the offending code and, because open source development moves so rapidly, that means Linux would no longer be infringing before it even got to court. So even if Microsoft did have a case, by the time it got to court the case would be gone and whatever damages that they were able to ask for would be very minimal." ~James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Hey All, I can't seem to find how to change my default file manager to konqueror from nautilus in gnome. Everything I try in my gnome configuration files kills my ability to login.

[opensuse] LightZone on SuSE10.2
by Verner Kjærsgaard 17 May '07

17 May '07

hi list, - in the latest edition of Linux Format (pg 11) an article talks of a Photoshop/GIMP compeditor, now available for Linux. And free as in beer, not speech. Named LightZone. - I downloaded the sw and had it running in a matter of seconds...on SLED10, ahem. I got it from http://sonic.net/~rat/lightcrafts. So, I repeated the download to my SuSE10.2 (main) box, and I can't get it to run. It's started through a shell script from whereever you put it. It comes with its own JAVA environment - and that's where the trouble is. I've not been able to detect where the script breaks in its effort to run LightZone with its own JAVA system. The programme, al beit being non-free, looks very interesting, at least from the point of view of a photographer. Has anyone in our community succeded in getting it launched on SuSE10.2 ? Anyhow, if one has got 5 minutes spare time, give it a whirl :-) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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] SMTP (Port 25 and Black List)
by os＠dcowan.net 17 May '07

17 May '07

I am using SprintPCS as my ISP. I have my own email server. I would like to send my email through my own smtp server. Sprint has Port 25 restricted so i will have to use their smtp server. I was for a while sending email directly with Sendmail/SMTP from my linix machine then sprint caught on and submited all their residentail IP address range to the Black list so no user can send mail directly as it gets stoped by the firewall/Server who checks against the list. I then opened up a gmail account so I can forward my mail through Gmail they shut down that port as gmail doesnt use port 25. So now I am forced to submit all smtp traffic through sprint I get charged $0.25 for every email I send. I signed a two year contract with sprint for this mobile broadband card and i cant upgrade so i can get unlimited usage. I am working on tunneling my traffic through SSH directly to my server does any one have a better Idea. Donald Cowan
