[opensuse] 10.3 Beta2 severily broken
by Art Fore 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Done a complete reinstall of 10.3 Beta2 as I could not get the Beta1 to Beta2 upgrade to work. The reinstall is a disaster. I downloaded and installed the 9639 nvidia driver successfully. Try running Sax2, it runs, but will not save the settings, (kills itself) or event test (again, kills itself). I says video driver does not support 3d, but I know it does as it did in 10.2 and 10.3 beta1. Screen comes up in 1024X768 instead of 1680X1050. Will not mount usb stick drive. Shows up in MyComputer as media:sdf1, but try to mount it, is says no such device sdf1 or device is busy. Also try mounting it manually, says no such device /dev/sdf1 Art -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Bluetooth not visible to phone on SuSE 10.2
by Andre Truter 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

After upgrading to openSUSE 10.2, my computer is not visible from my phone via bluetooth anymore. I can connect to the phone via OBEX and send files from the computer, but if I want to send files from the phone, it is not able to locate the computer when you search for devices on the phone. I tried it with the gnome bluetooth applet as well as the KDE bluetooth applet. I also recreated my bluetooth setup from scratch, but it still does not help. Any idea what might be wrong? I tried it with Nokia 9300 and N70 phones, both used to be able to see the computer when I ran SUSE 10.1 and earlier.

[opensuse] XEN Help Please
by Andrei Verovski (aka MacGuru) 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Hi ! I am in desperate need of Asterisk 1.4 and freePBX 2.3. Unfortunately, freePBX requires Apache to be run as user/group asterisk, what makes current server incompatible with any other web applications. The simplest solution seems to be to run Trixbox (preinstalled appliance of Asterisk, freePBX, CentOS 5, and some other utilities), straight on my SuSE 10.2 box under XEN. Trixbox comes as CentOS 5 based bootable CD to be installed on hard drive. I have Core2 Duo and low server load so virtualization penalty is really small. The question is - how to "virtualize" Trixbox under SuSE 10.2/XEN? Of course, I could install another PC dedicated exclusively for Trixbox, but there are already too much of this stuff, too combersome to manage. Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s).

[opensuse] Catalyst Control Center Linux Edition
by Francisco José Cadaval Arrola 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Hi all! I have installed latest version of ATI drivers on 10.2. Installation was ok and CCC (Catalyst Control Center) appeared on applications list. I tried to run it but a reboot was needed after drivers installation before be able to use it. The problem is that after reboot CCC doesn't appear in applications menu. 3D acceleration is ok, I'm sure about drivers are running but I wish to use CCC. Do you know how to launch CCC? Thank you, and excuse me for my bad English. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi Hans, I too had the same error and I followed the instructions in the error message: execute '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root.

[opensuse] Miniature desktop slideshow ?
by Francesco Scaglioni 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Hi, My son has just purchased a vista laptop (needed for college). Whilst vista looks and feels awfull the miniature desktop slideshow in the side-bar is pleasant. Does anyone know of a linux equivalent ? All the slideshow progs I can find seem designed to run full screen. In an ideal world one would be able to display images either by folder, or by tag.

Hi, trying to update a 10.1@x84_64 system with the latest KDE3 packages from build service i get a lot of conflicts between kdelibs3 and kdelibs3-32bit.
