[opensuse] KDE System Guard
by Mike McMullin 27 Feb '09

27 Feb '09

System is 11.1 i586. Problem when I open up KSystemGuard and look at the Process Table Tab, the info in the tab keeps flickering and there is no steady display of information on the current running processes. Any ideas as to how this can be fixed? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] gtk / gtk2
by Jay Mistry 27 Feb '09

27 Feb '09

On doing an online update through Yast, the "@System" repository shows that both gtk & gtk2 (Library for creation of Graphical User Interfaces, version 2) are present and updates are available for both. Are both gtk, as well as gtk2 required on the same installation of oS 11.1 ? Or, if gtk2 is installed, can gtk be uninstalled ?

[opensuse] Install from USB
by Bogdan Cristea 26 Feb '09

26 Feb '09

I am trying to create a bootable USB for openSuSE installation using this article: http://en.opensuse.org/SuSE_install_from_USB_drive The last step should be to run 'mksusebootdisk'. However, after installing 'syslinux', there is no such script. Could you advise how can I create a bootable USB ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Can't connect to wireless network
by Marcelo Magno T. Sales 26 Feb '09

26 Feb '09

Hi, folks I'm new to OpenSuSE (coming from Fedora) and I can't connect to wireless networks using NetworkManager/KNetworkManager. I can see my wireless network and configure a connection, but KNetworkManager does not even try to connect to it when I click the connection. I mean, KNetworkManager icon in the plasma panel remains as the little globe and does not change to the spinning gear that should appear when it's trying to connect. It works ok for wired network. My wireless card is an intel 3945 and its firmware is installed. Is there anything else I should check? By the way, KNetworkManager didn't ask me to use KWallet to save the password when I created the connection, but the password is saved somewhere. Where? Can't it use KWallet?

[opensuse] MySQL Remote Exploit?
by Randall R Schulz 26 Feb '09

26 Feb '09

Hi, I just noticed that for the past half hour I've been getting remote MySQL requests at a rate of one every two seconds. They're all coming from a host in Switzerland. I couldn't find anything on the Web about new or recent MySQL remote exploits, so perhaps this is new. Has anybody else noticed anything like this? I'll point out that the only reason I spotted it was the unusual blob of activity in the Internet monitor ("krell") in GKrellM, which I've configured to monitor ports 80 (HTTP) and 3306 (MySQL).

[opensuse] Issues with VNC 11.1
by Chuck Payne 26 Feb '09

26 Feb '09

Hi Everyone, I recently install openSuSE 11.1. In the past as part of the install I would tell it to turn on Remote Admin Access and VNC would be turn on. I did that this time, but when I try to connect nothing happens. I checked YaST to ame sure the firewall isn't blocking it, and it not. I did an nmap I do see the service open on the nic I am trying to reach. Now if I do a vncserver I can contect to the box. What do I need to look at so I can log into mybox.domain.com:0 or myboxdomian.com:1 and see XDM? -- ---------------------------------------- When a place gets crowded enough to require ID's, social collapse is not far away.
