by Paul Cornford 02 May '09

02 May '09

Hi list, Ever since I reinstalled the operating system and switched to KDE 4.1.3 from KDE 3.? yesterday I can no longer access my USB flash drive. It registers in My Computer but when I click on it nothing happens. Right clicking doesn't give me the mount option. As far as I know all the updates have been installed. My details are as follows: OS: Linux 2.6.27.21-0.1-pae i686 Desktop: 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) "release 4.10.4" Any help is appreciated. pcor. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Firefox 3.0.9 Crashes & Beagle Plug-In
by Randall R Schulz 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Hi, I just installed the latest Firefox updates to version 3.0.9. Two successive restarts ended in a segmentation fault crashes while restoring the previous session using Tab Mix Plus's session manager functionality. I was going to downgrade back to version 3.0.8 when I noticed that I'd left the Beagle plug-in installed following the eradication of Beagle during the original installation of openSUSE 11.1. So I decided to remove the Beagle Firefox plug-in instead of downgrading Firefox. Following this, Firefox 3.0.9 started up and restored its previous session successfully.

Yesterday, there was an update for Firefox, which I installed. Now, Firefox will not start. When I try it from the command line, I get this error message: "Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.9 and 1.9.0.9." I'm running 64 bit OpenSUSE 11.0, but installed the 32 bit Firefox. Any ideas? tnx jk -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Cups network printers stuck with URI /dev/null
by Andre Truter 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

I have a client with a network of SUSE 11.1 machines. Printers are physically connected to a number of the workstations. CUPS is set up so that all machines can see all other printers. Normally it works good. But then something went wrong on the one machine. Two of the remote printers on it is stuck in the configuration and I cannot remove them. Basic scenario: Server1 : workstation1 : printer1, printer2 workstation2 : printer3, printer4 So, normally Server1 lists printers1-4 in it;s cups and it can print to them. But now, we have on server1 the following: printer1, printer2, working pritner3: Listed, but URI=/dev/null printer4: Listed, but URI=/dev/null. pritner3@workstation2: working printer3@workstation2: working If I shut down the CUPS on workstation2, the two printers with @workstation2 disappears from Server1, but the other two are still there. We even tried to reboot the server, and changed workstation2 to not advertise the printers, but the two printers with URI /dev/null are still there. Server1 is a LTSP server and the local users have one of the defunct printers are default, so this is a bit of a problem, because all thier print jobs disappear into the void. Any idea how I can remove the two remote printers from the server's cups config?

[opensuse] ATI woes
by Roger Oberholtzer 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

I just updated my 11.1 system to the latest, and I get this when I try to start X: X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//extensions/libdri.so undefined symbol: atiddxMiscDixLookupPrivate It seems that the update did mods to my xorg,conf file. I put an earlier one back, but no go. I did see that one thing that was updated was an ati driver for xorg. I am guessing that is the problem, but I am not sure. The rpm that caused this might have been x11-video-fglrxG01-8.582-2.1, as it was newly installed. I also updated the kernel at this time, so there is a new ati-fglrxG01-kmp-pae-8.582_2.6.27.19_3.2-2.1. It that matters. The system is freshly booted after the updates. Anyone else see this? I did a google and a Novell bugzilla search on atiddxMiscDixLookupPrivate and got 0 hits. Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
