I used to have this hard drive in a different machine, but now I updgraded to a faster processor. The sound didn't work then either. I'm not gonna spend the money on a nice sound card for this box, because it mainly acts as a server for my lan, but it would be nice to be able to review some of the mp3's the various users upload to it. It's not something I absolutely need, but it would be nice.

But I'm still having some troubles. I'll describe better. I have a machine that haves the gcc 4.1 instaled, with these packages: gcc-info-4.1.0-28.4 gcc-c++-4.1.0-28.4 libgcc-x86-4.1.0-28.4 gcc-fortran-4.1.0-28.4 gcc-4.1.0-28.4 libgcc-4.1.0-28.4 I wanna compile a source that isn't compatible with FORTRAN95 (gfortran) and request for FORTRAN77 (g77) that is provided only by older versions of gcc. So I need to isntall g77 but w/o damage or uninstall the new compilers that is already installed. (may be isntall a cross compiler? I'm no sure.) I downloaded the compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64.rpm but when I try to install: denismpa@bachianas:~/compat-g77> rpm -ivh --test compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libc.so.6()(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4)(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4)(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libm.so.6()(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) is needed by compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.x86_64 So, I tried the source rpm: compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.src.rpm. with a rpm -ivh compat-g77-3.3.5-42.1.src.rpm I got the sources in /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/ created the directories: /home/denismpa/denismpa/g77/compiled cd /home/denismpa/denismpa/g77 /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/configure --prefix=/home/denismpa/denismpa/g77/compiled --with-local-prefix=/home/denismpa/denismpa/g77/compiled --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --enable-languages=f77 next: /home/denismpa/denismpa/g77$ make but I didn't have success. =( This is de last output lines of my make: gcc -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wtraditional -pedantic -Wno-long-long -DHAVE_CONFIG_H gcov.o intl.o version.o ../libiberty/libiberty.a -o gcov gcc -c -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -If -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/config -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/../include /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c -o f/bad.o /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c: In function âffebad_finishâ: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:387: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:391: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:395: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:399: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:437: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:492: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bad.c:496: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of âffebad_bufputs_â differ in signedness gcc -c -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -If -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/config -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/../include /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bit.c -o f/bit.o gcc -c -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -If -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/config -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/../include /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/bld.c -o f/bld.o gcc -c -g -O2 -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -If -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/config -I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/../include /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c -o f/com.o /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c: In function âffecom_char_args_x_â: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c:1938: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of âbuild_stringâ differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c: In function âffecom_constantunionâ: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c:10528: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of âbuild_stringâ differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c:10549: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of âbuild_stringâ differ in signedness /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c: At top level: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.c:11080: error: conflicting types for âffecom_gfrt_basictypeâ /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/f/com.h:236: error: previous declaration of âffecom_gfrt_basictypeâ was here make[1]: *** [f/com.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/denismpa/denismpa/g77/gcc' make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2 Please, anybody can help-me?

[opensuse] Getting rid of Zenworks
by Jim Sabatke 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I forgot to delete Zen from my 10.2 installation. Now whenever I add an update source, it takes about a half-hour to synchronize with Zen. Can I just delete Zen with Yast, or will I cause problems removing a functioning parasite?

[opensuse] Cannot shut down
by benang＠cs.its.ac.id 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, I've installed a new SuSE 10.1 with some additional packages that I've downloaded from the net. Now I can't shut down. I think it was all because I installed fuse 2.6.5 and ntfs-3g 1.516. Even in startup the kernel is marked tainted because of the fuse package. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance. Fare thee well, Bawenang R. P. P. ---------------- ERROR: Brain not found.

[opensuse] This is driving me crazy
by Jim Sabatke 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I can't seem to get a stable 10.2 system running on one of my boxes. I've tried both the 32 and 64 bit versions. Both seemingly randomly lock whenever I access my user's home directory. Also, there are random lockups of the taskbar. I'm about ready to go back to 10.0. I've been googling like crazy for the past 4-5 days and can't find anything close to my problem. Also, in the graphical mode, the keyboard keys become so touchy that I often get 5-6 repeats of the last letter I pressed. Am I the only one seeing this problem? Oh, maybe this will help; on the advice of this email list, I put an NVidia card into a slot because I couldn't get my ATI card to recognize my widescreen monitor, but the ATI remains in the box because it's built into the motherboard. BTW, this has taken me almost an hour to write because of that damn key repeating problem.

[opensuse] ksmarttray not checking for updates as regular user
by Sunny 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, I found this thread in the lists: <http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2006-07/msg00950.html> It's a little bit old, and for version 0.42 of smart. I'm using 0.51 from guru repo on opensuse 10.2, and still have this exact problem. I.e. following the advises from all the posts I could find on the topic, I still can not make ksmarttray to go and refresh(update) the channels. If I manually update the channels with smart update as root, then ksmarttray will display that there are pending updates. But it will not do it by itself, unless I run it as root. I found another post, which directs to execute SuSEconfig --module permissions, so ksmarttray receives a suid setting or so, but it did not help as well. Do I need to set ksmarttray suid manually? Is this a problem with the package itself? Or should I follow the workaround proposed by the author of the above mentioned post - to run a cron job to do smart update, and then let ksmarttray run as user, and only notify for updates? Or, changing the the permissions of /var/lib/smart tree, and make this belong to some (maybe wheel) group, so I can run ksmarttray as member of that group? Any suggestion what should be the safest approach?

MY IPS system has been warning me of regular - time initiated http messages to www.kde.org. These messages are auto sent 24/7 even by idle Workstations. I cannot test a gnome desktop, however I think they may not be auto sent. http://users.tpg.com.au/adslmi38/linux/kde04_Jul_17_2007_14_36_32.pdf Does anyone know 1. Their purpose 2. What is in the self initiated http traffic. NB These messages are not looking for updates as their appears no functional ability to download only KDE updates. Update messages ARE self initiated at a designated time, however these messages are sent every 2 then 8 minutes 24/7. Any Ideas.

[opensuse] Suspend to Disk in 10.2
by Christoph Bartoschek 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, I have just upgraded to opensuse 10.2 and have a regression regarding Suspend to Disk on my T42 thinkpad. With opensuse 10.1 everything worked fine. Now I have the following problems: 1. Suspend to disk does not synchronize with kde. After a resume I do not have to enter a password. The old version provided this feature. 2. The madwifi driver does not work after a resume. This was not the case with opensuse 10.1. Is there a way to get the old behaviour? Or to get both features running again?

[opensuse] Unable to Install OpenSUSE10.2
by arun murali 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hi, I wanted to try my hands on the SUSE 10.2 as my friends reported it quite stable. I downloaded the latest x64 version of the SUSE and it does not load yast. The system crashes after showing loading yast. My system Hardware is Processor : Core2Duo(4400) MotherBoard : Intel 965 Memory : 1GB. Is there any particular problem with Installing Open SUSE on this hardware? I checked MD5Sum after downloading and it seems to match with the one given in the site.

[opensuse] Cannot hear any sound
by Brandon Carl 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

Hey, I posted this about a week or so ago, and got no response, so I'll try again. I have a sound card built in to my motherboard, and for some reason I cannot get it to play mp3 files. I downloaded the correct driver for it, from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=23&PFi… and I used the installer script they provided and it seemed to work fine. But when I try to start amarok 1.4 to try and play a file, I get an error saying "xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers." When I try to do a "cat tst>/dev/audio" or "cat tst>/dev/dsp", with "tst" just being a text file, I get an error: "bash: /dev/dsp: No such device" and "bash: /dev/audio: No such device". I am running openSUSE 10.2 on the KDE gui. Also, when I go into "hardware>sound" in Yast, it shows the device as "not configured," but when I do a "quick automatic setup" it says: "An error occurred during the installation of 'VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller'. The kernel module snd-via82xx for sound support could not be loaded. The can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters." Does that mean I have to recompile the kernel? -Brandon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] mouse pointer jumping arround
by John R. Sowden 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

suse 9.3. all of a sudden, my usb mouse stopped working. it stopped when I swapped a suse 8.2/dos box with a vista box on my 2 channel kvm switch. I only found 2 ways to modify the mouse: yast to choose a model type and port, and the kde control to do a few items that are not of interest. I am able to get the ball mouse working thru or not thru the kvm switch-it's the same: as I move the mouse it jumps, like it is not tracking the speed or dots pet inch as I move the mouse. But, when I cycle the computer power, again the mouse does not work. 2 Q: 1: how do I get my usb optical mouse working? 2: how do I tweak the mouse settings so the ps2/ball mouse works smoothly? tia, -- John R.

[opensuse] Apache 2.2 auth and multiple providers

Hey, all -- Running apache 2.2 on a fully updated and patched opensuse 10.2 system. I'm trying to get apache auth set up, and I'd like to use multiple providers (ldap and flat file). Basically, the authentication logic should look kind of like this: If ((user is a valid LDAP user && user is a member of ldap group apacheAccess) || (user is a valid user in the flat file)) then allow access I'm having a devil of a time getting this to work, trying to follow the apache docs.

[opensuse] Stuck with Beryl

In an experimental mood, I installed Beryl according to the instructions at http://en.opensuse.org/Beryl It went OK, except that all my windows lost their title bars. Having fiddled around a bit with the display settings, I decided to back out. So I reverted to the KDE window manager, uninstalled all the beryl packages using YaST, that is beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-plugins beryl-settings emerald emerald-themes aquamarine leaving compiz and xgl. Unfortunately, nothing's changed :( My desktops are still on the faces of a rotating cube, my windows have no title bars, and my theme has reverted to KDE-standard. This behaviour survives logging out/in and even rebooting.
