I kinda cheated to do this one - I scanned in the label in question and traced over it in GIMP. Using multiple layers, I just fit the images in where I wanted and saved as a PNG, then printed it from whatever was handy (I hadn't played around with gimp-print at all). Took a couple of test prints to get everything lined up properly, but it worked out quite well.

Some days ago you could find every package needed for an openSUSE 11.0 installation in the BuildService, especially in the home:appleonkel:EEE repository. Unfortunately this temporary is broken with the latest kernel- Update for 11.0 and two driver aren't available from Factory anymore, so that they cannot be linked from there. So, the best you can do now is to stick with the 2.6.25.16 kernel and take the latest compiled packages from the home:appleonkel:EEE. > I'm trying to install them now. Is 1.1 out? I just downloaded the DVD > 2 days ago. openSUSE 11.1 is in beta. You can try to install it, but if you want a stable system, you should stick with 11.0. I will make an installation of 11.1 Beta3 next week but only on a SDHC card for testing. > I'm not sure how to install the madwifi driver.

You need the madwifi-ng package. Herbert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Text missing in Application Browser after trying compiz
by Lance Drager 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

I'm on opensuse 11.0, using Gnome. After trying (unsuccessfully) to get compiz working, the application browser (under the "Computer" menu, "More Applications...") shows the icons for the applications, but no text labels. The section headings are there. I've uninstalled all the compiz stuff. Can't figure out how to fix the application browser. Any suggestions?? Thanks. Lance Drager

sudo zypper in rpmfile.rpm Or you can add the VirtualBox repository. sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization:/VirtualBox/openSUS E_10.2_Update/ VirtualBox then do sudo zypper in virtualbox Note: openSUSE 10.2 is almost end of life, you should consider upgrading to 10.3 or higher. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you Ben.

I want to install openSUSE 11 from a bootable fash drive and I can't seem to find any documentation on how to do this. I'd like to use the openSuSE 11 DVD for the x86 32 bit platform which I have downloaded. Does anyone know how I can turn the flash drive into a bootable install disk?
