[opensuse] KDE 4 strikes again
by Curtis Rey 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hello list. I posted this earlier and did what was suggested to no avail. If I issue the command /usr/bin/firefox in any desktop other than KDE 4.4 I get a fully functional browser. However, the minute I do this in a KDE 4.4 evironment I get the following. #/usr/bin/firefox: line 128: 5965 Segmentation fault $MOZ_PROGRAM "$@" So then I have a look at /usr/bin/firefox and find the following: #cat firefox ---snip--- if [ $moz_debug -eq 1 ]; then tmpfile=`mktemp /tmp/mozargs.XXXXXX` || { echo "Cannot create temporary file" >&2; exit 1; } trap " [ -f \"$tmpfile\" ] && /bin/rm -f -- \"$tmpfile\"" 0 1 2 3 13 15 echo -e "set args ${1+"$@"}\nrun" > $tmpfile echo "$moz_debugger $MOZ_PROGRAM -x $tmpfile" $moz_debugger "$MOZ_PROGRAM" -x $tmpfile else $MOZ_PROGRAM "$@" fi exitcode=$? exit $exitcode Seems to revolve around the debug protocols/code in the program or the incompatibility with KDE 4.4 debug/environ.... I did earlier try to install themozilla-xulrunner192-buildsymbols-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-gnomevfs-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-devel-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-devel-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-translations-common-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-kde4-0.6-0.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-translations-common-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-translations-other-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-gnome-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 lastest XULrunner due to suspicions that it was the culprit.... I have multiple versions install (which seem to make no difference because the browser runs fine in every other desktop). The following for reference: #rpm -qa | grep firefox mhtml-firefox-0.5-2.3.i586 #rpm -qa | grep Firefox MozillaFirefox-branding-upstream-3.6.0-1.2.i586 MozillaFirefox-3.5.7-1.1.1.i586 MozillaFirefox-theme-oxygen-1.4.92-10.1.noarch #rpm -qa | grep xulrunner mozilla-xulrunner192-buildsymbols-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-gnomevfs-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-devel-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-devel-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-translations-common-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-kde4-0.6-0.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-translations-common-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner191-translations-other-1.9.1.7-1.1.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner192-gnome-1.9.2.0-2.1.i586 mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-1.9.0.17-1.3.i586 Again, it only fails in KDE 4.4. and it seems to make no difference if its FF 3.5, 3.6, 3.7. I realize their may be a conflict between MozillaFirefox-branding- upstream-3.6.0-1.2 and MozillaFirefox-3.5.7-1.1.1 - YaST suggested this and did not complain during installation. Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA, Curtis. -- BEWARE! Spammers will be shot, survivors will be shot again!

[opensuse] Skype problem?
by Jim Hatridge 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hi all! I just had a odd thing happen. I let Skype run all the time my system is on. About an hour ago, out of the blue a girl in Canada started a chat with me. I know that it was a scammer, but I like to play with them. So i chated back. Anyway she asked me to add her to my contact list. I did and she suddenly disconnected. My question is: is there any thing that they can do to my system by being on my Skype contact list?

[opensuse] directory time stamps on mounted DC
by Istvan Gabor 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hello: I have another question related to mounting CDs in linux. I have a CD that I burned years ago. If I mount it in openSUSE 11.2 the directory dates on the CD are all set to '1970-01-01 01:00'. File dates look correct. But the directory dates look correct in MS Windows. Why is this difference? How could I get the correct directory dates in linux? (If I make an iso image from the CD using k3b, the directory dates are also correct in the image.)

[opensuse] applications looking drastically different under GNOME vs KDE
by Boris Epstein 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hi all, I've got an OpenSuSE 11.1 box on which I used to log in under KDE 4 for quite some time. Now I tried GNOME... and some things, like Yast2, for instance, look drastically different. Why would that be? Is there a good rationale (or any rationale, for that matter) behind that practice? By the way, GNOME seems to be more responsive than KDE 4 though there are still some issues to be worked out. Does anybody else feel that way - or is it just me? Any comment on the above much welcome. Thanks. Boris. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

04 Feb '10

Hi all, When I try to use jDownloader I get this error: JDownloader not responding on http://localhost:9666/flashgot! Please check your firewall settings. Would someone tell me how to check my firewall settings? I don't think I even have the firewall turned on.

[opensuse] KDE4 Bug/Feature - Dolphin Still No man:/ pages -- only Preview?
by David C. Rankin 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

KDE Devs, I know originally dolphin could not read man pages. Trying again in 4.3.4, dolphin shows the man page in the preview pane, but doesn't show anything in the main windows. What dolphin did was call konqueror to open the man page, but konqueror to 100% of the CPU displaying it. I know the 100% CPU isn't right, but what about dolphin and man pages? Is this still right?

I > think that you would need Konqueror for this. > So why kde people quit full effort on konqueror to create dolphin?? Now we have two poor solutions, One is konqueror lacking manpower to keep it updated (11.2 konqueror 4.3.1 lacks almost all SSL features...) Two is dolphing while almost reaching 100% filemanagement of konqui hurts it on the navigator role distracting developers... Then you have gwenview that is becoming almost dolphin (they are pretty similar) , maybe a bit ahead on image stuff... meanwhile, you can see firefoz KDEized (it was really neccesary?) just to sum up another good product to the disparate experience KDE 4.X is showing us. Instead of working on more specialized views to integrate in konqueror, it seems the work is spread here and there without too much sense... Yeahh! the new concept desktop is here, someone should explain us again because we, poor base users still dont understand whats going on.. Ive been an advocate of KDE from the very begining on RH and ive been a happy openSUSE user from the last 5 years.. but the current SUSE/KDE philosophy is drivinig me nuts!! Dont tell me im wrong , just see the maillist, this feeling is not going to stop.

[opensuse] Webyast problems
by Gordian Klein 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hello, i upgraded from openSUSE 11.1 to 11.2 and wanted to try out webyast. So i followed the install instructions from http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Web/Installation . When i then start the webyast server with rcyastws start and try to connect to localhost:4984 to see the "“pure” web page that shows the available modules which can be used via the REST interface" i get this error "500 - Internal Server Error". So i looked into the error log of webyast and found the following: 2010-02-04 14:42:00: (log.c.97) server started 2010-02-04 14:42:03: (mod_fastcgi.c.2494) unexpected end-of-file (perhaps the fastcgi process died): pid: 18224 socket: unix:/srv/www/yastws/tmp/sockets/fcgi.socket-0 2010-02-04 14:42:03: (mod_fastcgi.c.3325) response not received, request sent: 891 on socket: unix:/srv/www/yastws/tmp/sockets/fcgi.socket-0 for /dispatch.fcgi , closing connection 2010-02-04 14:42:04: (mod_fastcgi.c.1768) connect failed: Connection refused on unix:/srv/www/yastws/tmp/sockets/fcgi.socket-0 2010-02-04 14:42:04: (mod_fastcgi.c.2956) backend died; we'll disable it for 5 seconds and send the request to another backend instead: reconnects: 0 load: 1 2010-02-04 14:42:07: (mod_fastcgi.c.2494) unexpected end-of-file (perhaps the fastcgi process died): pid: 18233 socket: unix:/srv/www/yastws/tmp/sockets/fcgi.socket-0 2010-02-04 14:42:07: (mod_fastcgi.c.3325) response not received, request sent: 891 on socket: unix:/srv/www/yastws/tmp/sockets/fcgi.socket-0 for /dispatch.fcgi , closing connection I guess something is wrong with fastcgi, but i have no idea what the problem might be.

[opensuse] dnssec-keygen problem in opensuse 11.2, including the genDDNSkey script
by Dan Kopparhed 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

Hi, I ran into a problem that I suspect may be a bug in dnssec-keygen. Can someone confirm this? I was trying to generate keys with the genDDNSkey script, but the script just freezes. So I had a look at the script and discovered that the problem occurs when calling dnssec-keygen. It sleeps, seemingly stuck waiting 4-ever (well, I honestly only tried for a few minutes). Actually, when trying this over and over again, it succeeded once out of something like 15+ attempts. I changed nothing between trials. In opensuse 11.1, latest bind update, running this command immediately generates private and public keys Ktest.* /usr/sbin/dnssec-keygen -a HMAC-MD5 -b 512 -r /dev/random -n USER test In opensuse 11.2, fully patched, the same command just falls asleep until killed.
