[opensuse] Printer on LTSP client
by Andre Truter 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

Hi All, I have a ltsp server and a thin client that works. Now I need to connect a USB printer to the client and make that work. I have googled and followed the documentation, and different variations of it, but I cannot get it to work. This is what I have in the lts.conf file: [00:20:ED:79:00:BC] PRINTER_0_TYPE = U PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/usb/lp0 I have also tried /dev/usblp0 When I telnet to port 9100 of the client, it connects and then disconnects immediately the first time. If I telnet again, I get a Connection Refused. If I leave it alone for about 10 minutes, I can telnet again to get connected and disconnected again. I have set up a printer in cups as an IP printer to port 9100 on the client, but it does not work. The ltsp server is running SUSE 10.2 and we use ltsp 4.2 Any ideas how to get this working? -- Andre Truter | Software Consultant | Registered Linux user #185282 Jabber: andre.truter(a)gmail.com | http://www.trusoft.co.za ~ A dinosaur is a salamander designed to Mil Spec ~ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] compressing files
by Art Fore 01 Sep '07

01 Sep '07

OK, needed to compress some files into a zip achrive. Highlight the files in Konquerer as usual, select compress, zip (has to be windows compatible), says compressing, then never finishes. Have done this before. What is the problem with Suse 10.2 all of a suddent?

[opensuse] Mobile e-mail solution? [Was: creating a PDF from firefox?]
by Greg Freemyer 31 Aug '07

I not to sure though, its been a > while sense I used Thunderbird. > I use gmail because on a daily basis I check e-mail from my house PC, my office PC, and my cell (Mot-Q). I toyed with Squirrelmail once as a company solution and decided against it at the time. I am running a linux desktop at work now for the first time, so I could conceivably setup a small single user e-mail server for myself and then access it locally at work and remotely as needed. Are there any solutions that would truly be easier than just continuing to use gmail.

[opensuse] opensuse 10.2 on acer system
by Ron Eggler 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, Last week i went to buy a new PC. I decided to get an acer aspire ASE700 which comes witch a Quad Intel 6600 Processor, 2 GB RAM and 500GB Harddrive. It seemed to be a pretty good deal for the price they had offered it. Anyways, after playing around with Windows Vista, I would have liked to really use my system and install Suse 10.2 on it. Okay, i downloaded the single CD to install from the net. booted from it - black screen after LILO. Okay I thought, it maybe the CD. I downloaded all the ISOs, burned em and now: The bootmanager comes up, when I select "installation" and "Text Mode" it loads the kernel and gets stuck on "ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)" I have no idea what this means but above this it says: "your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings ACPI: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs. ACPI: corrected configuration. ACPI: Interpreter enabled ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)" Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work anymore Okay, Power-off, Power-on This time I selected "Installation--ACPI Disabled" (and text mode) "loading kernel" seems to be fine but it gets stuck on a screen saying: "PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:02.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:03.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1a.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1c.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 0000:00:1c.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:01.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:02.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:03.0 PCI: Found IRQ 5 with 0000:00:1a.0 NET: Registered protocol family 2 Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work anymore Okay, Power-off, Power-on This time I selected "Installation--Local APIC Disabled" (and text mode) "loading kernel" seems to be finebut it gets stuck again, this time the screen says: "ACPI Interpreter enabled ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)" So i really don't know further. Does anyone know any of above messages? I've also tried to boot with following commands: acpi=off acpi=oldboot pci=acpi pci=noacpi acpi=noirq pci=routeirq acpi=force acpi_irq_balance acpi_irq_nobalance apic noapic lapic nolapic but it's all been unsuccesful. May anyone help me to get it installed? It would so much be appreciated! I've asked in alt. os. linux.suse but nobody was able to help me from there... I'm getting desperate... :o Thank you!

[opensuse] 32b compiled program not running in 64x environment - open SuSE 10.2
by Vahe Avedissian 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hi, I have open SuSE 10.2 32 and 64 bit installed on the same machine. I compile a small matlab example under 32b (either by booting 32b linux or -m32 compiler flag) and run under 32 and 64 bit linux. The code compiles under both environments. However, the code runs normally under 32b linux, but the 64b linux runtime causes an error condition and the sample code exits. I have the 32 bit environment loaded under the 64b installation. Yet, there is a subtle difference which is causing this problem. I've checked the shared libs used in each case and they are identical. I cannot figure out what is causing this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated! Vahe ____________________________________________________________________________________Ready for the edge of your seat? Check out tonight's top picks on Yahoo!

[opensuse] Apache Require Group and Lotus Domino LDAP
by Dale Schuster 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

I am using mod_auth_ldap on Apache 2.0.54 and SuSE 10.1. I have things configured to authenticate to an LDAP source running on IBM Lotus Domino directory. Authentication works fine. If I configure the <Location> to require a valid-user things work fine. But, when I "require group cn=groupname" things fall apart. I don't get any messags in the apache logs telling me there was an authentication failure or anything, just that the login box pops up over and over again when accessing the site. I can do ldapsearch to find all the attributes I'm using for authentication and authorization. I just don't know exactly what is happening behind the scenes. I don't know what sort of debug levels I can increase and hopefully gain more information in the apache logs, etc. This project is a joint effort between me and the Notes administration team here at work, so I have very limited access to any Domino logs. However, we did get IBM involved, and we were told that Domino Dirctory Services is setup correctly. ~Dale -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] creating a PDF from firefox?
by Greg Freemyer 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

All, RE: Opensuse 10.2 as my desktop As you can see I use gmail for my e-mail system. I just sent an e-mail that I want to save on my local disk. Gmail does not offer a way to do that I know of, so I thought I would print the e-mail to a PDF. I was kindly informed of the "kprinter" option in DIA a couple weeks ago that allowed me to select a PDF printer. I don't see a similar way to invoke kprinter from firefox. Is there a magic incantation that I'm missing so far? Is there another way to get firefox to create a pdf?
