[opensuse] Thunderbird 3beta/Lightning
by John Bennett 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

Has anyone got this successfully working in 11.2/x86-64 yet? Installed Thunderbird, tried installing lightning release - no luck. Found a Lightning pre1 here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/lightning/nightly/latest-co… but that was only for 32bit. Eventually found a 64bit extension here: http://www.zaera-holo.net/builds/lightning-1.0pre-linux-x86_64.xpi/. This installs OK, but only gives me a blank calendar, and doesn't pick up my existing calendar. (standard STORAGE.SDB)...? Anyone got any ideas? Thanks, John. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

It is still having fundamental difficulties, starting with this: I've installed 11.2 opensuse on my HP mini 110 and the installed inird kernet doesn't load, although it works for the install ram disk. I get an error message on boot "failed to get NUMA memory information from SRAT table"... then the screen over writes itself and I can't remember the rest. The system then loads up but it stalls on loading the devices after udev is loaded...it just sits there. I've worked on this for a while and I believe it is a bug at this point in the installation process. I tried to rewrite the initrd with mkinitrd, but that failed to work.

by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

Hello Mates, i'm trying to setup phpMyAdmin by using this documentation http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/Documentation.html#setup_script .. I've done: cd phpMyAdmin mkdir config # create directory for saving chmod o+rw config # give it world writable permissions And to edit an existing configuration, copy it over first: cp config.inc.php config/ # copy current configuration for editing chmod o+w config/config.inc.php # give it world writable permissions Next, open setup/ in your browser But in my Package an setup Folder doesnt exists If i go in the Browser: http://localhost/phpMyAdmin/setup he says "Object not found". If i go to http://localhost/phpMyAdmin/sonfig he says: "Access denied". Does anyone know what is to do? -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Member openSUSE Ambassador openSUSE Marketing Team openSUSE Build Service Web: http://saschamanns.gulli.to Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com ClaimID: http://claimid.com/saigkill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] OS11.2 x64 System Activity tool problem
by JC Francois 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

Hi, I just installed 11.2. Pressing CTRL+ESC brings up the System Activity tool as expected. However clicking on the column titles fails to sort the processes according to that column. Rearranging column order by drag and drop works. Anybody else seeing this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] SSHD is using Active Directory user accounts over local user accounts
by Anthony Simonelli 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

Currently I have a openSUSE server configured as a domain member of a Microsoft Windows 2003 domain. I have it set to "use SMB information for Linux authentication" enabled in the "Windows Domain Membership" YaST module, because I am running a Squid proxy and want the users to authenticate against Active Directory. I joined the domain, configured Squid for NTLM authentication and everything is working great. Windows Squid clients are authenticating using Single-Sign-On without having to enter a username and password, even with Firefox. However, whenever I log in remotely using SSH, the server always uses Administrator user from Active Directory rather than the local Linux user account 'administrator'. I only have a user 'administrator' and 'root' as users on the Linux server. It then tries to change to the directory /home/DOMAIN/administrator, which doesn't exist(nor do I want it to). This even poses a problem when logging in locally because GDM/GNOME won't log me in without a home directory! How do I configure PAM or whatever to check to use a local user credentials before it tries to use Active Directory? Would removing the "winbind use default domains = yes" from Samba fix the problem because then I would have to specify the domain before the user if I wanted to use the Active Directory Administrator? -- Anthony S. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] What is wrong with my NX server?
by Joop Beris 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

Hello listmates, I have recently installed NX server, after switching to openSUSE 11.1. However, I can't seem to log in. It used to work beautifully on openSUSE 10.3. What I did is the following: - First of all, to install the NX server, I added the following repository: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/RemoteDesktop/openSUSE_11.1/ >From that This resulted in the following packages being installed: - FreeNX - NX - freenx-client - libnxcl1 - After that, I ran nxsetup, which completed without errors. On the client, I installed version 3.3.0-6 of the NX Client for Linux from NoMachine. I chose this client because in the past, I have had bad experiences with the FreenNX client. The NoMachine client has always worked well for me. - Trying with the QtNX client, the client simply seems to freeze, without doing anything after starting the connection. - Up launching the NX client and entering the connection details, I start the connection. This takes a while, after which the client responds with: "Session startup failed". In the detail window, it says a lot more: NX> 105 /usr/bin/nxserver: line 1371: 13828 Terminated sleep $AGENT_STARTUP_TIMEOUT NX> 596 Session startup failed. NX> 1004 Error: NX Agent exited with exit status 1. To troubleshoot set SESSION_LOG_CLEAN=0 in node.conf and investigate "/home/<user>/.nx/F-C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/session". You might also want to try: ssh -X myserver; /usr/bin/nxnode --agent to test the basic functionality. Session log follows: Can't open /var/lib/nxserver/db/running/sessionId{8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C}: No such file or directory. mv: cannot stat `/var/lib/nxserver/db/running/sessionId{8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C}'NX> 1006 Session status: closed : No such file or directory NX> 280 Exiting on signal: 15 FOllowing the troubleshooting advice above, I have set SESSION_LOG_CLEAN=0 in /etc/nxserver/node.conf I also tried the command "ssh -X myserver; /usr/bin/nxnode --agent" to test the basic connection from the client. This gives me the following error on the console: NX> 1000 NXNODE - Version 2.1.0-72 OS (GPL, using backend: 3.2.0) NX> 716 Starting NX Agent ... Error: Aborting session with 'Server is already active for display 0 If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again'. Session: Aborting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:07:26 2009'. Session: Session aborted at 'Thu Jun 4 11:07:26 2009'. NX> 716 NX Agent exited with status: 1 NX> 1001 Bye. I find this odd, since to me this seems to be a problem with X authorization, not something to do with NX. I have confirmed that while X (KDE) is running, no one is logged into the machine at this point. I have also investigated /home/<user>/.nx/F-C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/session, to see if there is some more information there. There, it lists the following: NXAGENT - Version 3.2.0 Copyright (C) 2001, 2007 NoMachine. See http://www.nomachine.com/ for more information. Info: Agent running with pid '15613'. Session: Starting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'. Info: Proxy running in server mode with pid '15613'. Info: Waiting for connection from '127.0.0.1' on port '5000'. Info: Aborting the procedure due to signal '15'. Error: Aborting session with 'Unable to open display 'nx/nx,options=/home/<user>/.nx/C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/options:1000''. Session: Aborting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'. Session: Session aborted at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'. I enabled logging in /etc/nxserver/node.conf, and the same information is logged there. I am a bit stumped as to what to try now. Does anyone have any suggestions, please? I'll be grateful for any help or tips which help me solve this.

[opensuse] Digikam problem / question
by ka1ifq 13 Nov '09

13 Nov '09

I just did an upgrade to 11.1 after an hd crash (had 11.0). When I try and run digikam (digikam/ kde3 0.9.4)it does not recognise my camera ( Sony DSC- S90 ), ( also not even seen as a plugged in device, again it was ok in 11.0 ) before I picked something close and it ran without problems. What should I look at first?? I am downloading 11.2 to try on another machine and will test the camera there just in case...
