[opensuse] UUGH! New MozillaFirefox-3.0-1.1 adds tons of crap to your bookmarks.
by David C. Rankin 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

Listmates: I hate it when any browser company thinks they know what I want in my bookmarks more than I do. The new firefox add reams of crap to your bookmarks plus new "Bookmarks Toolbar" you can't delete from "organize bookmarks". Shame on you Mozilla. Now I have to go figure out where to delete that obtrusive toolbar. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

[opensuse] Imaging mobile phone memories.
by Rikard Johnels 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

Hello all! Is there a way to mount a mobile phone, or any other PDA type device to image the memory map onto an image file? I need this for a recovery/forensic project i am looking into. Today i use several brand specific software running under windows to recover lost data from damaged or othervice unavailable phones. I would like to do this in Linux instead, and prefarably in a generic way so i dont have to use gazillion different softwares for the different brands out there. Any clues, pointers or trix i can look into? /Rikard

[opensuse] 3G Cards And Vodaphone South Africa

Hi People Maybe some of you can help me here. I got a e220 Huawei Modem 2 days ago and would like to use it. My first problem was that when I plugged it into the computer it picked it up as a CD ROM. Basically Vodafone packages the drivers as a sort of Autoplay function for the windoze people. I installed a "device" rule which allowed me to see the Modem. I ran Kppp setup the modem and used the modem terminal to actually talk to it. I could successfully send my pin number and check signal strength. So far so good.... then I setup the account. When I connect with Kppp it connects then dies with an error stating Protocol-Reject for 'Compression Control Protocol' (0x80fd) received. I phoned the helpdesk. Waited 15 minutes and was told that Vodafone does not support Linux. So armed with this I just went through the account settings and made sure that everything is fine. Well my account is setup correctly and my modem is responding. Anyone out there have any ideas?

[opensuse] Any way to get suse built 4.0.5 packages
by Ben Kevan 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

With the new way the KDE build services are setup will there be a way to get 4.0.5 (supported or unsupported) onto openSUSE 11.0? The previous methods used for the build services would allow this under the stable build (which is now being used for only the life of the version of kde that shipped with the distro).

[opensuse] A critique of openSUSE 11.0 GM
by Basil Chupin 22 Jun '08

22 Jun '08

Well done to the team who put v11.0 together. The release installs quickly and with minimum of hassles - at least the 32-bit version with both KDE3 and KDE4 installed (only possible problem is my HP Photosmart 8450 printer which I am yet to configure). Congratulations to all!

Marcus Meisner is a SUSE employee who posts on this list.

There are also ways of removing criminals from society without locking them up in very small rooms made of concrete and steal...but we still do it anyways, because it's the best solution for the problem.
