[opensuse] How do I upgrade 10.3 Beta1 to 10.3 Beta2
by Art Fore 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

I am not having any luck upgrading Beta1 to Beta2. I download the openSUSE-10.3-Beta1_Beta2-DVD-x86_64.delta.iso (via Ktorrent which is as slow as Christmas) and try to burn it with K3B. K3B comes up that it is not an iso image. Burn it anyway. Sure enough, it will not boot. Try doing online update configuration. Will not work, there is a bug on this. Looked at the tar.gz file, no info on how to impliment the update fix that I could find. The details CGI leads to dead end. Doing sofware management in Yast, it comes up with db locked. Delete the /var/lip/zypp/db folder and try again. It updates and comes up with the same error. There is no full iso for the beta2 that I could find, so cannot even do a new install. After doing all of this, I insert a blank dvd in the dvd drive, hald no longer comes up with a dialog box asking what to do with it. So, any suggestion on howto update Beta1 to Beta2?

[opensuse] Getting rid of annoying first-time dialogs
by Jan Engelhardt 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hi lists and Novell, as I set up a diskless boot, I am facing a rather desktop-oriented problem. Have a look at this screenshot: http://jengelh.hopto.org/GFX0/ohnoes.png what we see here is * opensuse/novell registration * “wanna configure your network card?” Is there a simple way to disable these annoyances globally? I really do not think a user should configure around hardware! (In the past, similar dialogs have popped up asking _regular_ users to configure hard disks. What for? They do not even have the privileges for it.) Jan --

[opensuse] Troubleshooting Apache mod_auth_ldap
by Dale Schuster 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

I am trying to authenticate Apache against a Lotus Domino directory via Ldap groups. It's not working. I don't have much access to the Domino logs. Is there a way to turn on more verbose logging within Apache or something which will record the LDAP conversations, etc.? I have followed the module documentation as well as I can. Authentication works fine with "valid-user" as a requirement, but when I add "require group" it fails. I just don't know where to go next. Thanks for any input. ~Dale -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Adding a radio stream to Amarok
by Clayton 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

I listen to a radio stream which comes from here: http://stream2.netro.ca/984capitalfm This stream works fine in a browser using the MPlayer plugin. I am wondering though if there is any way to get this stream linked into Amarok. It is an ASF stream.... so maybe not... Anyone have any thoughts or ideas?

[opensuse] nvidia driver
by Bob S 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hello SuSE people, Downloaded the latest nvidia driver last night. (100.14.09) RPMs from the Nvidia repo. Installed OK, but, GLXgears shows only about 2900 FPS. Shouldn't it be much faster? I get the nvidia spalsh at bootup amd my xorg.conf shows nvidia as the driver. Doesn't appear to be right. Any suggestions?

[opensuse] VirtualBox error
by hans.linux＠igi-alliance.com 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

I installed VirtualBox SOE v1.4 from opensuse repositories. But when I try to run it, this error shows up : VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Re-setup the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root. VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED). Result Code: 0x80004005 Component: Console Interface: IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45} the re-setup suggested /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup doesnot exist. What is wrong then? Before that, I upgraded my kernel to 2.18.8.0-3. Is that because of upgrade kernel??? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] 32b compiled program not running in 64x environment - open SuSE 10.2
by Vahe Avedissian 29 Aug '07

29 Aug '07

Hi Marcus, I have checked my matlab installation and I can launch standalone matlab under both 32 and 64 linux. The code snippet from Mathworks is: /* * Start the MATLAB engine locally by executing the string * "matlab" * * To start the session on a remote host, use the name of * the host as the string rather than \0 * * For more complicated cases, use any string with whitespace, * and that string will be executed literally to start MATLAB */ if (!(ep = engOpen("\0"))) { fprintf(stderr, "\nCan't start MATLAB engine\n"); return EXIT_FAILURE; } ... Under 32b linux the program continues and executes sample commands. Under 64b linux, the return code from engOpen is *not* zero and I get the can't start matlab engine error.

[opensuse] OpenSUSE 10.3 and dazuko
by Yuriy Lalym 29 Aug '07

29 Aug '07

In "/usr/src/linux-2.6.22.1-14/include/linux/dcache.h" extern char *__d_path(struct dentry *, struct vfsmount *, struct dentry *, struct vfsmount *, char *, int, int); In "dazuko-2.3.3/dazuko_linux26.c" #ifndef WITH_LOCAL_DPATH extern char * __d_path(struct dentry *, struct vfsmount *, struct dentry *, struct vfsmount *, char *, int); #endif The last parameter is lost. In "dazuko-2.3.3/README.linux26" If your kernel is SMP then you should _not_ use Dazuko's copy of __d_path(). You can disable Dazuko's local copy of __d_path() by configuring Dazuko with: $ ./configure --disable-local-dpath Result Compiling the dazuko kernel module is completed with an error. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
