[opensuse] Windows problem wiki page
by jdd 09 Jan '08

09 Jan '08

Having spend two days booting and re-booting my computer, I find udefull to write a page about Windows on our wiki. http://en.opensuse.org/Windows_problems I quoted at the top of the page: "This page is not a place to write about solving Windows usage problems, but only to write about problems that openSUSE may give to your Windows installation and the way to fix them." and I invite you to give your advice about this, to go to the page and fix what ever fix you think necessary. I beg many of you did have such (bad) experiment with W and could verify if they experience is the same as mine and complete the page accordingly. thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse] shutting down only one alias interface

After a bit of testing I observed the following: e.g. do a: ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig eth0:0 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig eth0:1 10.10.10.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig eth0:2 10.10.10.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig eth0:3 10.10.10.13 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig -a shows me all the configured interface. when I do a ifconfig eth0:1 down then only the eth0:1 disappears, but when I do a ifconfig eth0:0 down then all aliases disappear. This behaviour is not bound to the name eth0:0. It is the first configured alias for eth0. When you name the first alias eth0:6 and then create more aliases for that interface, then when removing eth0:6 all other aliases will disappear. I tested this on 10.1, 10.2. 10.3, SLES10SP1, and observed the same behavior on all of them. I'd say it is a bug, but because it is so consitent working for all tested suse version, I wonder whether this is a "feature"? If its a feature, what is the reason behind it, i've no idea? kind regards Sebastian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] 10.3 x86_64 bit Install - GPG check on RPM failing for some packages
by Brown, Jordan 09 Jan '08

09 Jan '08

Hello Everyone, I'm trying to install openSUSE 10.3 on an Intel Core 2 Duo 64 bit computer. (Dell OptiPlex 755) I am using a DVD I burned from downloading via bit torrent. I am using the 64 bit installation media. I did an MD5 sum of the iso, and it matched. I did the media check, during the first steps of the install and it said it was ok. During the actual copying of the packages, I get errors for about 1/3 of the packages that the package is corrupt, and the GPG key for the RPM isn't valid. I pressed skip a few times, thinking it would go away. However when it asked to skip kernel packages, I became concerned. I tried burning the DVD again, thinking that I had a bad disk (even though the check said ok), but I got the same result. So, what am I doing wrong? Has anyone seen this before? Sorry to bother everyone with this question, but I couldn't find the answer by searching. I could have missed it though... Thanks.

Re: [opensuse] About offtopic posts
by Stevens 09 Jan '08

I suppose the reason that OT posts are made here is that no one reads - or subscribes to - the OT list. Besides, the subject says OT, so a reasonably decent filter should flush any OT message for those who detest OT posts. While on the subject of mail, I use kmail. Opensuse has its own folder and anything to do with opensuse gets put there. I then scroll through the messages, scanning the subjects until I see something interesting - to me -. I scan the contents on those that I choose to read and, of those, I keep a few tidbits that might be of help later. Everything else gets flushed. It takes damn little time to go through the hundred-odd messages a day. I don't use message threading, so top posting, bottom posting, comments in the center, none matter to me whatsoever. No one's posting style has raised my blood pressure, but there are a few anal retentives here who need to take a deep breath, get away from the puter and go get laid. Just my 2 cents worth.
