Hello Andres, we updated the Linux installers for the serverless Messenger, now we have: - Debian 2x (etch and sarge) - Linux installers with script (suse etc) - Autoinstaller script see the forum for linux threads http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=618174 and the releases you find in the download developers section http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=178712&package_id=206… As the new installer image of sugar will be delivered in 6 days, can you have a look, if it installs on sugar? If there are any questions, don´t hesitate to contact the projectfounder and main coder at: drbob7[[at]]users.sf.net think this offline and serverless messenger with mail, channels personal and group chat is quite good for the olpc project.

by Alexey Eremenko 05 May '07

05 May '07

There is a short how-to: http://en.opensuse.org/OpenVZ_virtualization Unfortunately I can't get this thing start: I can't compile a kernel with openvz because this fails. Oneone has any idea about how-to get this stuff working ? This link above is written by someone. Who is it, and how-to find him ? As for my problems, they are well discussed (but unresolved) here: http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=tree&goto=12562&#msg_12562 I really want to revive this thing for openSUSE. -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] opensuse 10.2 auto updates
by John O'Gorman 05 May '07

05 May '07

Hi I installed 10.2 several weeks ago. Since then it does not seem to have applied any updates. When I click on the little globe icon, it invariably says 'There are no sofware updates available' This does not seem credible. 1. How can I find out if any updates have in fact occurred? 2. If none has, is this something I have botched, or is there a bug in the auto-update process? regards John O'Gorman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Radeon X1050 3D Acceleration HOWTO
by M Harris 05 May '07

05 May '07

hi folks, My latest machine adventure has led me to a new Radeon X1050 card--- which "surprise" is really an old RV370 chip--- like the X300, X550, X600. (I digress) So, the card works fine under normal ops... sax2 identified it correctly as an rv370, and loaded the "radeon" driver. The problem is -- no 3D acceleration. The 3D accelerate check box in sax2 is grayed out (cannot be selected)... and of course none of the 3D openSUSE games will play... the ones that require 3D that is. So, I've been doing some snooping around and wondering which path to go down first. Is 3D acceleration possible with the default ati "radeon" driver that ships with openSUSE 10.0? Are there some options I can select that make this work? Do I need to download the latest ATI proprietary driver from AMD/ATI? (looks like a PITA, but I'm game) TIA -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Why is package libpcap 0.94 contains library 0.93 !?!
by Alexey Eremenko 05 May '07

05 May '07

I have a one little question: WHAT THE HELL !?!? openSUSE 10.2 contains package called "libpcap-0.9.4-30" but internally it has a library of a previous version ! "/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9.3" !!!

[opensuse] bluetooth dongle hints
by Dave Howorth 04 May '07

04 May '07

I'm planning to buy a bluetooth USB dongle and would be grateful for any specific recommendations (models/chipsets etc) or things to watch out for. Or useful URLs. I'm planning to connect a Nintendo wiimote but I may also use it with my phone and/or headset etc. I'm presently running 9.3 but may switch to 10.2 or 10.3 soon.
