[opensuse] Printing from UnixWare to openSUSE cups fails Number 1
by Tom Wekell 04 Sep '10

04 Sep '10

Hello-- Printing from Oracle Forms or the cli to CUPS worked fine before the upgrade to cups-1.3.11. Since then all jobs must include the -o nobanner, else they fail to print and the access_log shows Create-Job client-error-bad-request. Any and all help will be appreciated.

[opensuse] Dolphin audio file preview work for anyone?
by jsa 04 Sep '10

04 Sep '10

In Dolphin, if you select an audio file the Preview window on the right shows a Play button and a slider. The play button appears active, but clicking it does nothing other than showing the button depress. This hasn't worked for me for the last many releases. What packages or configuration do I need to make this work? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

I found the suggested "Console" font and it works. Looks the same as Misc Console and startup speed has improved too, though it is still longer than KDE3 konsole's (3 sec vs. less than 2 sec). I had a short look at the links you gave and I see that these bugs are not new, they are 6 to 9 months old. As this font problem is not minor I find it strange it still hasn't been fixed.

[opensuse] Strange DATA Problems (Legacy DBF Files)
by Wayne Hammond 04 Sep '10

04 Sep '10

Since upgrading to 11.3 I have noticed a number of strange problems accessing or manipulating Foxpro DOS tables. This is of course a Samba Issue. I see a lot of issues with 11.3, I can't even operate an ssh login to run yast properly to get a version #. What I'd like to know from the community is which version of Samba or OpenSuse is most friendly with these legacy files. This is a typical configuration for Samba >> [mbd] >> comment = Management by Design >> path = /home/mbd >> force create mode = 0770 >> force directory mode = 0770 >> writeable = yes >> browseable = yes >> guest ok = no >> printable = no > [global] > workgroup = mbd > printing = cups > printcap name = cups > printcap cache time = 750 > cups options = raw > map to guest = Never > include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf > logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile > logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile > logon drive = P: > security = user > encrypt passwords = yes > ldap suffix = dc=example,dc=com > domain logons = no > ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap > ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers > local master = yes > oplocks = yes > level2 oplocks = no > passdb backend = smbpasswd > add machine script = > preferred master = auto > so_sndbuf = 14596 > so_rcvbuf = 14596 > wins server = > wins support = yes > netbios name = mbdserver -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] KDE Stable (4.4) to Factory (4.5)
by John Andersen 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Since 4.5 is getting good reports I think I will make this move from my relatively virgin 11.3 install. (unless someone jumps up and screams in horror). Do I Remove the stable repositories, leave them there with lower priority? Do I do this after or before updating? -- _____________________________________ At one time I had a Real Sig.

Not difficult. Available at Nvidia site, with instructions for openSUSE. i'm aware of that and tried it. half through the compilation process i got the message that the kernel driver couldn't be built. no further explanation (perhaps an error no. which i don't remember). and yes, i have kernel source installed. in the meantime i found in different forums & blogs people who claim that 2.6.36 nvidia drivers don't yet work -- whatever that may mean. -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] tracker
by Dave Howorth 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

I want to index the contents of a directory hierarchy. I decided to try tracker but am having difficulty understanding how it all fits together. Neither the docs at http://projects.gnome.org/tracker/ nor the man pages seem to give the information I'm looking for. Is there a forum or website where I can provide feedback and maybe get some answers?
