Re: [opensuse] setting up SMB printer using Yast - Suse 11.1

Is "most of the time" just your personal experience or could you provide information about possible reasons why it does not work "most of the time" - i.e. what changes from time to time so that it does sometimes work but most of the time it does not work. I ask because I am not in a Windows-like environment so that I like to learn what I must have in mind when I re-implement it. If it does not work I would like to show a meaningful error message to the user instead of leaving the user alone with an empty list of remote SMB printer shares. I am not talking about autodetection of the actual printer "behind" a remote SMB printer share. I only like to autodetect the values of remote SMB printer shares i.e. SMB host name, SMB printer share name, SMB workgroup.

by kanenas＠hawaii.rr.com 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Is there a repository where i can find a version of oo that can actually do a text to columns import? that would be for suse 11.1, 64 bit. This "upgrade" nonsense has really taken it's toll on me for the past year or so, almost everything linucs has been coming out with basic functionality issues. conspiracy plots anyone? tia. d -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] package repository copying
by Roger Oberholtzer 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

I have one machine that usually has set up the specific set of package repositories that I want to use. It is not uncommon that I want this exact same set of repositories on a few other machines. To date, I have edited the list for each system in YaST. Yes, a real time killer. How are others doing this? I would expect there to be an export command that makes something that can be imported on another system. I have not found it. For example, the zypper command (that I know about) to list the repositories does so in a way that cannot be imported elsewhere.

[opensuse] Three different browsers can't access website, fourth can
by Stan Goodman 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

A few hours ago a specific website <http://www.jpost.com> became inaccessible in Firefox, and began to behave as if unrecognized by the DNS. Calling its URL caused my own home page to be displayed instead (this is what happens when a non-existent URL is entered in the navigation field). When this continued for so long as to become suspicious, I logged into WinXP in VirtualBox, and found that the same website is accessed normally, so there is nothing wrong with the website, which made me think that I needed a new profile. The new profile is also unable to access the website. The same thing happens on Opera and on Konqueror, so the problem has nothing to do with a specific browser. There is also no problem with other websites. I am behind two separate firewalls (hardware in my router and openSuSE software. I am out of ways to diagnose the problem. Does it make sense to anyone? -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Postfix: masquerade_domains does not work
by Rainer Blaes 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Dear all! We are using a SLES 10 SP2 system where we installed a Mail Server according to this tutorial: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/16264.html Everything is running fine except for the Masquerading feature. For instance the e-mail sender should have this "user(a)example.com" form but it appears as "user@mail-s. example.com". Here is now the relevant /etc/postfix/main.cf entry: ............... ............... masquerade_domains=ldap:/etc/postfix/ldapmasquerade_domains.cf ................. ldapmasquerade_domains.cf has this content: # This file was created by yast2-mail-server. Please do not edit it! server_host=localhost query_filter=(&(objectclass=suseMailDomain)(zoneNa me=%s) (suseMailDomainMasquerading=yes)) search_base=ou=DNS,dc=example,dc=com timeout=20 result_attribute=zoneName bind=no server_port=389 scope=sub # By using "masquerade_domains=example.com" in the main.cf file, the sender is now as we want to see it ie. "user(a)example.com". Any idea what's wrong with the ldapmasquerade_domains.cf configuration?

[opensuse] Anyone successfully using Philips SPC 620 NC webcam?
by Malte Gell 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Hi there, the video part of this webcam works fine with the uvcvideo driver. But, the USB sound part may be totally broken, maybe broken firmware, it was already discussed with people form pulseaudio and ALSA. But, to be sure, I would like to know, is there anyone using this webcam *successfully* with its USB audio microphone? I know there are successors, the SPC 900 and SPC 1000, their USB audio may work better, but I don't know.

[opensuse] setting up SMB printer using Yast - Suse 11.1
by James D. Parra 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Hello, Noticed and interesting change when setting up an SMB printer in Suse 11.1. There is no printer lookup function in the UI so you need to know the name of the printer and the manufacturer before you can set it up. In Suse 10.3 you can select 'Look Up' to get a list of printers hosted on the Windows server. Is there a way to get the functionality in Yast in Suse 11.1? Thank you, James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
