[opensuse] Script '/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/autofs' exited with error status 1.
by David C. Rankin 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

Listmates, On my 11.0 i586 laptop, I am seeing NetworkManager errors in syslog and don't know whether this is a bug, misconfiguration or normal check/fail--service not available, issue. The log errors identify nm-dispatcher.action, and dbus- daemon as the unhappy processes. What gives? To prevent wrapping issues, I'll try to attach the small log snippet. If that doesn't work, the log snippet is at: (2.3k) http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_bugs/110/NetworkManager-error.… Let me know if this is something that is normal or something that needs to be bugged.

[opensuse] Panel bar problem in 11.1 install
by Jim Sabatke 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

I did a fresh install of 11.1 on a friend's computer. I backed up his home directory and deleted everything in it after this problem first appeared (then selectively restored things like .mozilla and .thunderbird, etc.) The problem that has happened through two new installs is: The system does not initially display a panel bar at the bottom of the screen (or anywhere else either), it only displays a very limited menu of a few applications on the screen. When I create a panel, I can add one applet, and only one applet. The applet is placed in the center of the panel and cannot be moved. If I add a second applet, it is displayed directly over the first applet. Accordingly, to display an application launcher menu and a digital clock, I have to create two panels. Also, when running programs are minimized, they disappear from view and cannot be reaccessed. Any ideas out there? I'm running KDE4 TIA, Jim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
