[opensuse] Hostname??
by John E. Perry 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

I installed 11.0 a couple of days ago. I don't recall the installation program asking for a hostname; I suppose if I had thought about it, I would have assumed it would pick up the old hostname somehow. In fact, it assigned an arbitrary set of characters, linux-1pkh, which has of course made a mess of my home network. How can I fix the hostname? I hoped to find a way in yast, but I haven't yet. I know where to assign external hostnames, both by hand and in yast, but I can't find a way to assign my laptop's original hostname. I don't mind reinstalling, if that's necessary (which I can't believe!), but I still don't know where in the installation to set the hostname, so that hardly seems likely to improve the situation. How can I fix this? John Perry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Opensuse taken over by Microsoft?
by Daniel Bauer 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Hello, since I updated my 10.3 to the latest kernel there are nothing but problems. The behaviour of my labtop reminds me of the terrible times when I had to suffer from Win98, although at the moment I wished I had such a great and stable stystem like Win98 compared to that junk now "running" here. I cannot shutdown, logging out as a user takes ages, after logging out /home partition is still in use, now seamonkey blocked and I cannot kill the process, not even as root. I logged out as user, tried to kill that process as root, logged in as user again, the process is still here: seamonkey cannot start anymore. So if this is what opensuse is now, then my time with opensuse will end the very first moment I am at home and able to install another system. I wouldn't even care what system - *any* crap would be far better than what I actually have here!

[opensuse] how to reisferfsck enrcypted / ?
by Daniel Bauer 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Hello, I'd like to riserfsck my encrypted root directory, but of course / is in use so that I cannot remount it to read-only. I guess I'd need to download a bootable CD with reiserfschk and the decryption tools needed to mount the encrypted partition. Can you advise me how and where I can find the smallest bootable CD that can do the job? Or is there an easier way? thanks Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Barcelona professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com erotic art photos: http://www.bauer-nudes.com Madagascar special: http://www.fotograf-basel.ch/madagascar/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Yeah, I'm kinda thinking that if I purchase a replacement drive, I'll get one that's either a single drive (instead of two drives spanned) so I can pull it out of the enclosure, or get one that has a SATA interface on it. I know one of my machines has SATA on it, and I think actually one I just bought used also has it. Not sure if they have external connectors or not, will have to check that out.

[opensuse] Firefox 3 and some GIF images
by Sorin Peste 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Hello, I have openSUSE 11.0, KDE 3.5.9 and Firefox 3.0. I'm experiencing some weird issues with certain GIF images. For example, go to http://www.fark.com (safe for work / family / etc.) and look at any image - on my system all look "fuzzy". On the top left logo the issue is clearly visible; however if you view the image directly (http://img.fark.net/images/2007/site/farkLogo2.gif) it shows up fine. No such issues with Konqueror or Opera or (the best I remember) Firefox 2.x. Anybody else have this problem?

[opensuse] Calling Firefox from Thunderbird
by Basil Chupin 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Apologies for asking this question. Not too long ago someone had a problem of Firefox not being executed when s/he clicked on an URL mentioned in a msg in Thunderbird. The answer on how to resolve this problem was provided. After checking all places I could think of, I cannot find what the solution to this hassle is. Could someone please either give me the answer or provide the link where the answer is provided. (I've had TB and FF running now for years but they have been my own installations, ie directly from Mozilla and installed in my home directory. Last night I decided to use the Firefox as installed by openSUSE 11.0 -- and the wheels fell off :'( : I cannot 'call up' FF from TB.)
