[opensuse] Tracker Search Tool
by Philippe Andersson 19 Jan '11

19 Jan '11

Hello list, Just tried the "Tracker Search Tool" (OS 11.3). It seems to index MS .doc and .xls files, but to completely ignore ODF files. Is this behaviour expected, or have I missed some configuration item ? TIA Cheers. Bye. Ph.

[opensuse] Install of openSuSE11.3 to external USB disk drive fails
by Marc Chamberlin 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

Perhaps this is a little off the beaten path, but I just tried to install openSuSE11.3 x64 onto an external USB/eSata hard drive (Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex external hard drive) for my laptop. I am running Windoz7 on the main drive. Things seemed to go pretty well, (I downloaded the ISO version and stuck it on a DVD from which I booted my laptop and did the install) until I tried to reboot the laptop. GRUB reported it completed stage 1.5 and then gave an Error 21, which internet searches revealed means GRUB could not find the disk drive. So, how do I configure GRUB to find the USB/eSata drive? (I am using a dual USB/eSata port on my laptop, and the USB/eSata drive is using the eSata interface. The BIOS is configure so that the boot sequence is first from a CD/DVD drive, then from a USB drive, then from the internal hard drive.

[opensuse] Disable window maximizing when pulled to the border
by Josef Wolf 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

Hello, In opensuse-11.3, a new functionality seems to have been added for KDE. Whey I move a window close to a border of the screen, a small frame around the screen appears. When I release the mouse-button while this frame is shown, the window is popped up to full-screen-mode. I find this new functionality very annoying and would like to deactivate it, but I could not find where and how. Anybody can give me a hint how to deactivate this? Thanks! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] mingw32 cross compiler from OBS
by Roger Oberholtzer 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

I am using the MinGW cross compiler from in windows:mingw in OBS to make on Linux binaries that run on Windows. It really works great. But would I only share that bit of good news? Naah. I have a small issue and am curious if I am alone: the binaries that are produced are not expanding command line wild cards. A bit of background: on windows, the good old command.com (or cmd.exe) does not expand file name wild cards. They are passed to the application unchanged. Microsoft VC++, for example, lets you link with a runtime startup module that performs this expansion before main() is called. As I understand it, the MinGW compiler should be doing the same. In fact, if I understand correctly, it should be the default behavior. Alas, it is not happening. Is anyone else using this cross compiler? Is anyone else getting it to expand wild cards properly?

Yes, I'm also thinking about sending the card back :(. I don't want to wait until someone comes up with driver fixes. I found one other guy on a Mandriva forum with the same problem back in April 2009, with no solution since then. The TeVii S470 is out of question for me, I only have a PCI slot in my PC. Maybe the S464 would work. Does anyone on this list have experience with that card? Does it work reliably? Also with DVB-S2 channels?
