[opensuse] Anticipating switch to 12.1 with dialup modem
by mz 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

I'm anticipating moving from oS 11.3 to oS 12.1 (with xfce) with a clean install in a month or so. A problem for me since jumping into GNU/Linux with oS 11.0 has been configuring my external, serial/USB, hardware modem. Editing config files directly and/or reconfiguring options in YaST, which didn't always take, and/or the GUI dialer has been needed. I've searched for information regarding the use of a dialup modem with 12.1 to no avail. Could someone, please, tell me where I could find the answers to the following questions, or should I wait until oS 12.1 is released before searching? 1.) Will the modem config file still be the ifcfg-modem0 and will it still be located in /etc/sysconfig/network/? 2.) Will the GUI for the dialer still be qinternet?

[opensuse] Remote files using SSHFS without mounting
by Anton Aylward 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

I know about SSHFS. I know how to mount using FUSE and all that. This isn't what I'm asking about. I'm asking how to access a file on the command line without mounting. I can run $ scp localfile anton@remotesystem:remotefile What I want to do is that in a general sense, for example $ diff localfile anton@remotesystem:remotefile or $ tail anton@remotesystem:remotefile WITHOUT MOUNTING THE REMOTE FILE SYSTEM! Yes, I've googled and there is a tremendous amount of stuff abut mounting. I got tired of paging through it all. This strikes me as such an obviously and useful mode of operation, surely someone has met this before. -- What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite. --Bertrand Russell, _Skeptical Essays_ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] phpMyAdmin update
by Carl Hartung 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

Hi All, I'm drawing a blank here (creeping old age, I guess)... I noticed a new file while backing up and upon investigating here's what I've found under /etc/phpMyAdmin -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9912 Oct 27 10:51 config.inc.php -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9868 Oct 26 10:10 config.inc.php.rpmnew -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10031 Jul 4 23:12 config.inc.php.rpmsave system: openSUSE 11.4 x86_64 GNOME 2.32, all updates current phpMyAdmin is running fine I'm deducing the '.rmpsave' flavor is the one that YaST2 replaced during an earlier update (it was saved, not overwritten.) rpm shows phpMyAdmin was updated to 3.4.7-22.1 this morning at "10:51" which matches the active config file. What is the '.rpmnew' flavor and why would I want to keep it? Thx! Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] My Kmail2 does not get email
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

This morning as i left my computer for work, kmail2 was busy synchronizing email folder inbox. At least after the whole day it is still synchronizing and I cannot get my pop3 email. I have been able to sent four emails to trash but nothing new comes in. If I look into the inbox under .cur the four deleted emails have gone. In the .new there are a whole list of emails of today. What means this. Why are these emails not shown. Should I delete something to get kmail working again?

[opensuse] Cups error log
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 27 Oct '11

27 Oct '11

Trying to use one of my printers and in the printer setup I asked for printing a test page. The printer worked as if it was printing, moving the printersledge over the paper but it did not print anything. Inkt seems to be okay, no arning lights. The advice of the setup program was to /var/log/cups/error.log in order to find out what went wrong. This is what the log tells me but I cannot translate the text in something usable.

[opensuse] opensuse 11.3 DNS not working

Hi, I have a DNS server setup on a desktop machine thatis also my print and SAMBA servers. The DNS server is responding but Wireshark is reporting a DNS Server Error as the replies to what appear to be the DNS queries. **** WireShark output **** No. Time Source Destination Protocol Info 69 7.811350 192.168.0.50 192.168.0.12 DNS Standard query A samhaber2.sampathome.ca Frame 69: 83 bytes on wire (664 bits), 83 bytes captured (664 bits) Ethernet II, Src: Ibm_13:63:8a (00:11:25:13:63:8a), Dst: D-Link_07:7d:d3 (00:05:5d:07:7d:d3) Internet Protocol, Src: 192.168.0.50 (192.168.0.50), Dst: 192.168.0.12 (192.168.0.12) User Datagram Protocol, Src Port: 41883 (41883), Dst Port: domain (53) Domain Name System (query) [Response In: 70] Transaction ID: 0x0c06 Flags: 0x0100 (Standard query) Questions: 1 Answer RRs: 0 Authority RRs: 0 Additional RRs: 0 Queries No. Time Source Destination Protocol Info 70 7.811845 192.168.0.12 192.168.0.50 DNS Standard query response, Server failure Frame 70: 83 bytes on wire (664 bits), 83 bytes captured (664 bits) Ethernet II, Src: D-Link_07:7d:d3 (00:05:5d:07:7d:d3), Dst: Ibm_13:63:8a (00:11:25:13:63:8a) Internet Protocol, Src: 192.168.0.12 (192.168.0.12), Dst: 192.168.0.50 (192.168.0.50) User Datagram Protocol, Src Port: domain (53), Dst Port: 41883 (41883) Domain Name System (response) [Request In: 69] [Time: 0.000495000 seconds] Transaction ID: 0x0c06 Flags: 0x8182 (Standard query response, Server failure) Questions: 1 Answer RRs: 0 Authority RRs: 0 Additional RRs: 0 Queries *** End of WireShark output *** Also, very interesting is that I thought the DNS deamon was dnsmasq but when I turned that off in the Services menu I expected to get no response or at least something different but it is exactly the same Network traffic.

In KDE3, there was a "Session Manager" in the Personal Settings, which could be used to configure whether open apps in a session would be restored after logging out & in.
