Installation is running now. I'll have to test the bios settings one-by-one to see which one was causing the problem. - Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Aisleriot Freecell and Solitaire will not run in 12.1
by Basil Chupin 01 Dec '11

01 Dec '11

Both Freecell and Solitaire are part of the Aisleriot package of games which are really for Gnome. However, I have been successfully running them for years under KDE[#] - until 12.1 :-( . I am not interested in Solitaire but I enjoy playing Freecell. Does anybody know, please, why Freecell, for one, will not run in 12.1 even though it installs successfully and without any dependency problems? Perhaps there is a version of Freecell for KDE (and NOT the one in kpat, thanks, which I consider to be primitive) which is not part of Aisleriot package? Anybody know? [#] I am using KDE 4.7.3 (but it won't run even under the default KDE which comes with 12.1) and kernel 3.1.1 on a 32-bit system.

[opensuse] Firefox or Chromium on tmpfs and contents of /dev/shm
by Roger Luedecke 01 Dec '11

01 Dec '11

I was looking up if and how to put the Firefox cache into a tmpfs, and found it was basically as easy as I thought. However, I saw one comment on the forum whom said that he used '/dev/shm' so he wouldn't have to make a new tmpfs. So, I looked into my '/dev/shm' and saw this "org.chromium.Chromium.shmem.libcef_2473405944504155357" among other things. Is Chromium already using this directory for its cache? I don't even have Chromium installed. -- Roger Luedecke openSUSE Ambassador Ind.
