by Roman 05 Mar '09

Hi all, Has anyone been able to view other documentation using the Help Index in KDE 4.2 such as "Lessons for Lizards" ? I remember being able to viewing it in the Help Index in KDE 3.5.10. Cheers!

[opensuse] WARNING - Please Confirm: ATI fglrx 9.2 driver Completely Broken for 11.0 Radeon x1300
by David C. Rankin 05 Mar '09

05 Mar '09

Listmates, After having built and installed every fglrx driver since November 2007, the install of the new 9.2 driver left me speechless. It is totally broken and causes my machine to "REBOOT" as soon as kdm/xdm is started. I completely wiped the driver and did a complete step-by-step reinstall twice on my laptop just to confirm I wasn't messing something. Same result. John A., Stephan B., anybody else, can you please confirm what you see with this driver so I can have that info in hand before I write another (apparently worthless) ATI Linux Driver Feedback ticket. You can download the driver here (same driver installer for x86 & x86_64) ( A bloated 80M download now ): https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-drive… The logs from dmesg & /var/log/Xorg.0.log from my failed attempt to install the driver are available in the bzip2 file (16k): http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/ati/9-2Notes.bz2 What a disappointment -- ATI. Very, very disappointing. Oh well, back to the working 8.9 driver. If you are running Virtualbox, don't forget to either rebuild the driver with 'rcvboxdrv setup' or disable it from loading 'chkconfig vboxdrv off' (it has an annoying 5 min. timeout) after you install the 9.2 driver. Then don't forget to rebuild it, and enable it, before the final reboot with your working fglrx driver. (I've never had to do this before on a driver install???) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[opensuse] Sharing Printer With Vista
by Rick Friedman 05 Mar '09

05 Mar '09

My wife has purchased a laptop which is running Vista. I need to know how to share the printer which is attached to my desktop. The desktop is running openSuSE 11.0, KDE 4.2. Can someone give me step-by-step instructions (or guide me to them on the web) for sharing the printer on my home network so my wife can access the printer on her Vista laptop? Any help is greatly appreciated. Rick -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Errors after update: /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so
by Anton Aylward 04 Mar '09

04 Mar '09

Earlier today I applied couple of updates. Working from memory ... * one was to some rc files to fix what was supposed to be a typo, * one was a kernel patch and there were a whole pile of KDE4 updates. On the next boot I saw and found in the logs lots (64) of ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored. Well it does so exist and is a valid file # ls -l /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9458 Mar 4 05:28 /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so # file /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert* /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, not stripped As it happens, the /usr file system is a separate file system so I can understand it being unavailable as part of the boot sequence. But why now?

[opensuse] New OpenOffice.org releases vs. SUSE 10.0/9.1
by pelibali 04 Mar '09

04 Mar '09

Hi, recently my wife asked for a new(er) OpenOffice.org and when instal- ling, I realized quickly that neither the 2.4.x, nor the 3.x series work on her openSUSE 10.0 desktop. I downloaded the stuff again, did install from this newly downloaded .rpm collection directly from the official OOorg distribution site and the result was the same. No error messages visible, nothing printed into the konsole, simply doesn't work. Finally I also tried the same software on my SUSE 9.1 Pro, still no fruits. Any idea please, what to check and how to figure out, why OOorg in its latest releases doesn't work here? Maybe there is someone running these new versions and giving me some hints...
