[opensuse] New Samba acting up
by Anders Norrbring 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hiya.. I got a new Samba for my SUSE 10.1 x86_64 by automatic update last night, and now all of a sudden my Vista workstation won't connect to the shares automatically. I have the machine as a domain controller with LDAP backend, and it's been working flawless until the new update to samba-3.0.22-13.32. My log.smbd shows this as the workstation logs in, and asks for username/password, which it has NEVER done before: [2007/07/20 10:31:25, 0] smbd/server.c:main(805) smbd version 3.0.22-13.32-1354-SUSE-CODE10 started.

[opensuse] openSUSE 10.2 Update package store location?
by Hylton Conacher (ZR1HPC) 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hi, I would like to reload the entire system from scratch but do not want to have to re-download all the patches I have already downloaded. What I would like to know, is where openSUSE stores its updates and how those same updates can be used again. What would I need to do to have them stored in a different location? I ask this as I want to add a 2ndry HDD into my system and use it as an install source. I would think that all I would need to do is copy the DVD into a partition on the new HDD and cut and paste the updates that I have already downloaded and applied. Comments or should I raise an RFE? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] kdewallet forgets kmail password
by Daniel Bauer 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hello, I made a new email account in kmail. I say "remember password" wherever I find this option, but kdewallet forgets it after user log out . How can I tell kdewallet to please remember that password? Thanks for hints Daniel -- additional details: When I open kmail for the first time after login, it asks me for the kdewallet password. After entering it, a dialog appears, asking me for the pop password of the said new account. To see what happens I opened kdewallet: after clicking "ok" in the password dialog ("remember password" checked) a new account-number is added into the kmail tree within kdewallet and I can see the correct password. But as soon as I log out as user and log in again, that account number is not existent anymore. All other accounts/passwords work, just the new one gets forgotten every time. I use Suse 10.0 fully pached today, KDE 3.5.7 "release 56.1", kdewallet 1.1 -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com erotic art photos: http://www.bauer-nudes.com/en/linux.html Madagascar special: http://www.fotograf-basel.ch/madagascar/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Upon driver load, it goes nuts and takes a few Ethernet devices down at the same time. First, I need to boot w/ "noapic" or the system will hang during boot. The hangs occur when the drivers for the other devices (that it shares interrupts with) load. The LSI BIOS sees the SCSI drives w/o problem.

[opensuse] Whither the KDE3 Repository for 10.0?
by Randall R Schulz 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Hi, Today I ran YaST Software Management for the first time in a few weeks. It failed to update one of my repositories: <http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.0> It gave a 404 error, so I used a browser to try to see what was up. As I stepped down from the root, <http://software.opensuse.org/>, through the directories in that URL, I found that when I added "repositories" I ended up back in "download." Then I noticed there's a KDE: directory there, so I figured one level was removed from the directory structure. And sure enough, if you just remove that segment of the URL I was using you get this: <http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.0> Which does appear to be a repository. However, when I configure this as an installation source, I get an alert saying: "There is no product information available at the given location ..." What should I use to access this repository?

[opensuse] how to change login screen?
by Daniel Bauer 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Hello, How can I change the login screen? (if this is not the correct name: I mean that screen that appears when booting is cmplete or when you log out as a user, where you choose which user to use and enter the password). I am on Suse 10.0, just updated KDE to 3.5.7 - and now I have the new blue Suse login screen, but I'd prefer to have my old one... I had this problem once before and I know I must just change something in a file - but I forgot what and which file and googling didn't help. I hope you will :-) thanks Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com erotic art photos: http://www.bauer-nudes.com/en/linux.html Madagascar special: http://www.fotograf-basel.ch/madagascar/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problem with kmail composer
by Adam Jimerson 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I have Kmail 1.9.7 installed on my openSUSE 10.2 box, when I am writing a message with kmail and I get to the end of a line I can tell that wordwrap is working but composer only moves the slider bar half way so it cuts off some of the text at the start of the line. Is this something that can be fixed by playing around with Kmails settings?

[opensuse] Filesystem becomes read-only
by Tim Donnelly 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I am using Suse 10.2 on two different machines. One is a new Dell Poweredge 2970, the other is an older (2002) "no-name" server. Both have experienced a strange and severe problem since I installed Suse. Basically the file system is put into a read-only state. While the OS and all apps are still running and I can log in a view files/logs etc. nothing can write to the disks. Obviously this causes all kinds of problems. The only way to get the filesystem into a more interactive state is a hard reboot. The first two times this occurred, there were messages in the /var/log/messages file relating to megasas, however as soon as the system was restarted, these warnings disappeared. I believe the file was not actually written to the disk when the system freaked out so once logging resumed those entries were lost. The messages are somewhat similar to these that I found via a Google search: sd 1:2:0:0: megasas: RESET -286287 cmd=8a megasas: [ 0]waiting for 12 commands to complete megasas: [ 5]waiting for 12 commands to complete megasas: [10]waiting for 12 commands to complete megasas: [15]waiting for 12 commands to complete ... megasas: [170]waiting for 12 commands to complete megasas: [175]waiting for 12 commands to complete megasas: failed to do reset sd 1:2:0:0: megasas: RESET -286287 cmd=8a megasas: cannot recover from previous reset failures sd 1:2:0:0: megasas: RESET -286287 cmd=8a megasas: cannot recover from previous reset failures sd 1:2:0:0: scsi: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery Saturday the problem happened on the Dell server, although this time there is no mention of megasas in the logs files. A search of this list did not find any reference to megasas and all too many unrelated results for a read-only filesystem :). System Specs: Dell PowerEdge 2970 Opteron 2.0GHz 64-bit 4 GB memory 3x 73GB Hard Drive (RAID 5) PERC 5i "No-name server" Dual P3 1GHz 1GB memory Dual 36GB hard drives (no RAID) I appreciate any help.

[opensuse] Is this a bug of SUSE? Cannot load autoyast profile from harddisk,
by Da Shuang He 19 Jul '07

I make a bootable disk, and I can start to install the SUSE, but when it tries to find the autoyast file, it can't find it, and I write the kernel parameter like this : title SUSE 10 Installation root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/linux root=/dev/sda1 ramdisk_size=8192 install=hd://sda1/SUSE autoyast=device://sda1/autoinst.xml splash=silent showopts initrd /boot/initrd When I try autoyast=device://sda1/autoinst.xml, the error is , "An error occurred while fetching the profile: File /tmp/Yast2-02878-KeDBUh/tmp_mount/autoinst.xml cannot be found" And when I use file:///autoinst.xml and default, the error is, "An error occurred while fetching the profile: Reading file on /var/adm/mount//autoinst.xml failed. Reading file on /autoinst.xml failed. Reading file on CD failed. Path /tmp/Yast2-02878-KeDBUh/tmp_mount/autoinst.xml" And when I try to use hd://sda1/autoinst.xml It tells me hd is unknown protocol, Can someone tell how should I write the parameter for autoyast, or do you know somebody else can help me on this ?
