Is there a time frame for having lightning available for thunderbird 3.x on 11.2? (32 and 64 bit) Thanks for all the hard work and oh, by the way KDE is looking better and better. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] no xserver and invalid repo in opensuse 11.2
by xPol 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

I have just tried to install 11.2 on my hp tc4200 laptop (intel 915 graphic card), but no luck. I have restarted network intallation from my usb stick a couple of times, ending with the same 'black screen' and login prompt. Starting sax2 from the cli, both times, i see the program terminating because 'it cannot find the pcidata module'. I have no idea about the meaning of that. Moreover, starting yast2, i am warned that the non-oss repo url is invalid and that it cannot find a temp file in /var or something like that. I am wondering whether the two facts are correlated. Anyway, after inspection, the 'non-oss' repo seems quite similar to the 'oss' one. Those lines have been set by the installation procedure. How could they be wrong?

[opensuse] Network Manager does not set Route or DNS servers
by John Andersen 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Where do I tweak KNetwork manager to get it to set the dns servers and default route when I boot my machine on WIFI. This seems very error-prone, working some times, and failing the next. Switching from wired to wifi mostly works, but booting directly to wifi seems like its 50/50 chance of leaving me with no default route and no DNS servers.

[opensuse] local repository maintenance scripts updated
by David C. Rankin 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Listmates, The helper scripts have been further optimized to reduce the search and remove duplicate calls made that does a good job speeding up the process. The process time is down to less than 60 seconds excluding the actual rsync time for copying packages from the client to the server. Updated scripts at: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE/pkgmanage/pkgmanage.tar.bz2 If you plan to have multiple 11.2 boxes, it would be a good idea to set up a local update repository to hold all the downloaded updates (official updates - and- buildservice updates). That way you only have to download the files once, but can update any number of machines from the packages saved on your local box. (downloading full kde updates can be > 500M) Note, the scripts still default to 11.0, so either change the default or make sure you pass 11.2 as the version option. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[opensuse] Opensuse 10.2 nice, but second problem
by Paul Ollion 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Hello, it's me again My new Opensuse 11.2 connected to the internet automatically, I had never yet seen that since SuSE 6.4, The mail was very easily received, but unfortunately I cannot configure the outgoing mail properly. I use SMTP, but I always get the same error message 5.7.0 Error : authentication failed. It is the same with Kmail, my usual mailer, But I get a similar result with Thunderbird. Both work fine on reception, using POP. That is why I must reboot to 10.2 every time I have to send a message, which is not very convenient. I suppose there must be a configuration file which Yast could not write properly, but I do not know which one it can be. Could any of you shed a bit of light on this question, please ? -- Paul Ollion Proud Linux user SuSE 10.2 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

I have just installed 11.2 and can't figure out how to add applications to the task manager. In 10.3 there was an add widgets forf a non-kde application. That doesn't seem to be available in 11.2, nor did google turn up anything.

[opensuse] 11.2 configure tablet
by lists＠iisys.com.au 17 Nov '09

17 Nov '09

Hi, I have an Asus R2Hv umpc upon which I have installed 11.2. All is fine, display & intel 915 adapter is detected correctly (11.1 didn't). However, the device has a Panjit touchset device which is not configured correctly. It is detected by X, but tries to load the synaptics driver rather than evtouch. I have installed evtouch but don't know how to get it up and running. The umpc is not a choice in sax for tablet (although others do use evtouch). I have previously had this running fine under 11.0. Here are the lines from xorg.0.log (II) config/hal: Adding input device PANJIT PANJIT TouchSet Digitizer (II) LoadModule: "synaptics" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules//input/synaptics_drv.so (II) Module synaptics: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.6.5, module version = 1.1.3 Module class: X.Org XInput Driver ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 4.0 (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 1.1.3 (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/event8" (**) Option "SHMConfig" "on" (**) Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0" (--) PANJIT PANJIT TouchSet Digitizer: no supported touchpad found (EE) PANJIT PANJIT TouchSet Digitizer Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
