Hi all,
I updated my 10.3 server to 11.0 (using retail purchased DVD) and that
seems to have broken my postfix install. Postfix is/was set up to
send/receive to/from my own domain and has been working mostly fine
for a few years. After the update I can send, but receive is not
working. I THINK inbound emails are getting in, but no new emails are
showing in the inbox. (I had to temporarily subscribe to the opensuse
list to see any replies). AFAICT inbound emails are not bouncing, at
least not until the queue gets full.
The upgrade seemed to go fine, the machine boots OK, but the new
install is not the default in grub. I can fix that. I do get the
following in messages:
------
May 3 07:54:24 cammee postfix/master[5788]: fatal: 0.0.0.0:smtps:
Servname not supported for ai_socktype
May 3 12:55:26 cammee postfix/postqueue[5924]: fatal: Cannot flush
mail queue - mail system is down
------
I note that the time for postfix shows to be off by 5 hours. Not sure
how to set the timezone for that, and unsure if this is the sole
problem. My clock is not set to UTC, but this has not been a problem
until now.
I googled " fatal: 0.0.0.0:smtps: Servname not supported for
ai_socktype" and found only one thread related to that, but its in
German which I can't read. The google translator wasn't too
accurate......
On initial reboot I did see some screen message about postfix error,
something related to either main.cf.SuSEConfig, or maybe
master.cf.SuSEConfig being present, but can't find that in the logs.
It should be in there somewhere.
Postfix did not start on first boot, but it does start manually, and
now on reboot. ClamAV and freshclam are updating themselves, according
to the logs, which is not completely pertinent, but it tells me the
system is MAINLY working OK. Apache is up too. I did have to change
/etc/imapd to allow plaintext passwords. That's the only change I've
made so far.
Any pointers most welcome. Thanks.
Jim F

Greetings!
On OpenSuSE10.3, with Truecrypt 6.3, when a truecrypt volume is
mounted and the system is going to hibernate, it hangs at or
immediately after "suspending tasks...".
This only occurs when I forget to unmount any truecrypt volume before
hibernating the system.
There doesn't seem to be any scripts associated with
suspend/hibernate. Is there another way to automatically get truecrypt
volumes unmounted before suspend/hibernate?
TIA

Hi all,
I have a Dutch friend that I converted from M$Win on his Asus EeePC to
openSUSE 11.2
All the years I saw the documentation being installed when I installed
the distro, but only used it in the beginning.
Now I need a newbie type of handbook for my friend in Dutch, from the
very basic to guide the user around the KDE 4.x and how to use and install programmes etc.
The first SuSE systems had a nice users manual, and an admin manual in
the box. A printable version was also in the installed system.
Is it still done? I have not tracked it down yet.
Does something like that exist with the newest versions? A PDF will also
be OK, then I can print it out. He needs a book at the moment, as he is
almost 70 years old and likes to have a paper copy ... he is eager as H-ll to learn openSuSE 11.2.
Some Dutch book suggestions will also be welcome.
TIA

Dear all,
I have Firefox 3.6.3-1.2 from buildservice installed including as I suspect
the correct version of xulrunner: 1.9.2.3.
I keep getting the following error:
"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can
stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script:
file:///usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.3/components/nsExtensionManager.js:623"
If I try to stop the script the error shows up again.
Any ideas please?

I recently tried out the latest PCLinuxOS release, and noticed
something... in their KDE4 build, the systray icon for the WiFi is the
familiar graduated bargraph style... it's very readable, easy to see
signal strength on etc. Back to the openSUSE KDE4 builds, and we've
got that useless circle thing that's basically unusable as a visual
reference to see WiFi signal strength etc... it's just a white and
blue circle... and the microscopic signal strength bar on the right
is... well.. microscopic.
What's the trick to enable or use a more "normal" and readable WiFi
systray icon in KDE4/KNetworkManager?
I've been poking Google and various forums, but haven't turned up
anything useful yet.

Hi all,
This is maybe out of topics but I want to ask if someone here uses
open source authoring tools and can share the experience.
My friend use CourseLab (which is free but not open source) to produce
SCORM content for LMS. It has very good function but only run on
Windows. Is there any Linux based alternatives to it?
Any thought really appreciated.
regards,

My first thought would be to find out the name of te package that
gives the bar graph. Find te source code for it and build it on
opensuse.
Linux code in PCLinuxOS should be able to be used in any other distro.

Hi all,
It appears that while under openSUSE the Thunderbird's files go into
$HOME/.thunderbird in Ubuntu the are stored in
$HOME/.mozilla-thunderbird . Not only that but the content appears
somehow different - linking or copying content to the correct folder
does not work.
So, does anybody have any idea what all of this is about? What I am
trying to accomplish is manage things in such a way as to allow users
to use Thunderbird the same way whether they log into their account
from a SUSE machine or an Ubuntu one.
Thanks in advance for any insight into this mess.
Boris.
