[opensuse] kde 4.5.4 - most system settings dialogs windows don't fit the contents - any headway.
by David C. Rankin 03 Dec '10

03 Dec '10

Guys/kde4 devs, What is the story with the initial size of the dialog windows that pop up for just about everything in system settings? (power management, etc..) The biggest problem/annoyance I see is the contents don't fit in the initial window size and I'm forever forced to stretch, pull and resize the system settings dialog windows just to see all the contents. I could see one or two stragglers that haven't been worked yet, but we are talking 50%+. This is on the old standard 1280x1024 res. How are the initial windows being sized? Anybody working on this? I just did a full fresh install on my son's computer and went through all the settings getting him set up. Appearance wise, most everything looks great. But going through all the setup dialogs -- one thing really struck me -- nothing fits in the initial window/dialog size that pop up after you press a button in system settings :( -- David C.

SOLVED [opensuse] 11.3 on EEE PC 901 with LiveUSB
by Myrosia Dzikovska 01 Dec '10

A friend of mine had a 901 and installed openSUSE > on it multiple times (he was experimenting a bit before committing his > main machine) and he didn't have issues.. *except* the first USB stick > he used caused him problems. Oops - my solution turned out to be embarrassingly simple. Turned out that when I plugged the USB stick into a different usb port, on the other side my eee pc, everything worked as expected. It's a bit strange, because certainly all USB ports on that laptop work fine for reading that same USB stick, but not all of them will boot with it. Don't necessarily understand why, but that's beside the point now: I learned that hardware problems on boot can come in interesting ways ;-) Myrosia -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] LVM: Another thread is handling an event. Waiting...
by Bujdosó Sándor 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

Dear list! I did my full system backups up till now on site. This time however i was not able to visit my remote server, so i thought no problems, lvm snapshots to the rescue. So i snapshotted all my lv-s and started the full backup on a slow-is ADSL-line. It is running for 6 hours now, (approx. 5 horus left.) On to the questions: ever since the creation of the snapshots i get theese messages in the system log: [date] host lvm[24978]: Another thread is handling an event. Waiting... It comes in waves, 8-10 messages every 10-20 minutes. The pid is allways the same. *everything* _seems_ to be normal, no problems, or abnormal activity. My question is: . shall i worry? . is this normal operational messages? . any suggestion? (system details: Opensuse 11.3. Up to date. Kernel 2.6.34.7-0.5-pae lvm2-2.02.67-4.1.1.i586 ext3 on top of lvm on top of md-raid1 snapshot creatued using lvcreate -s -L 4G -n "$i"snap /dev/sys/$i ) Thanks in advance! -- ----------------------------------------------- Bujdosó Sándor <sandor.bujdoso(a)gmail.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] KDE 4.6 in KDE:Distro:Factory
by Will Stephenson 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

As previously announced, with the start of the KDE 4.6 release cycle, we have shifted the codebase in KDE:Distro:Factory in the openSUSE Build Service to KDE 4.6beta1. That means if you want to continue to use KDE 4.5 and have not yet done so, you have a matter of hours to switch your repositories to KDE:Release:45, where stable KDE 4.5 releases will be provided for the medium term. Otherwise you're joining us for the 4.6 stabilisation ride!
