[opensuse] No sound from apps M Audio 2496 on 11.4
by michael norman 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

On a new installation of 11.4 64 bit KDE desktopn with an M Audio 2496 soundcard I am not getting any sound output from any apps. neither do system sounds work. I have checked the mixer settings which are ok. and I can play a volume test from Yast and sound examples from the multimedia section of KDE system settings. The same box also has 11.3 installed and the sound is OK there. Whether Pulse Audio is enabled has no effect neither does running as root or another user. Grateful for views as to what might be the problem Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Source? The relevant part is as follows: class data(c.Union): _fields_ = [("b", c.c_char * 20), ("s", c.c_short * 10), ("l", c.c_long * 5)] class XClientMessageEvent(c.Structure): _fields_ = [("type", c.c_int), ("serial", c.c_ulong), ("send_event", c.c_int), ("display", c.c_void_p), ("window", c.c_int), ("message_type", c.c_int), ("format", c.c_int), ("data", data)] (...) k = data() k.l = (0, # CurrentTime 0, # REQUEST_DOCK self.winId(), # window ID 0, # empty 0) # empty ev = XClientMessageEvent(33, #type: ClientMessage 0, # serial 0, # send_event dpy, # display managerWin, # systray manager XInternAtom(dpy, "_NET_SYSTEM_TRAY_OPCODE", 0), 32, k) I receive the following error: X Error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) 2 Major opcode: 25 Minor opcode: 0 Resource id: 0x0 Seems that the script somehow transfers 25 instead of 0 in the second field of k.l. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

A python application that should display its icon in system tray, shows its icon randomly on screen instead and has a button on taskbar. How should I modify the script to make it show in tray? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Looking for two RPMs for 10.3
by Roger Oberholtzer 03 Apr '11

03 Apr '11

I need to backport some software to openSUSE 10.3. As luck would have it, the only 10.3 system I can use has slightly newer versions of two packages than came with the original 10.2 distro. I need runtime/development RPMs for: glibmm2-2.16.1-19.2 libsigc++2-2.2.2-4.1 I looked at the suggestions in http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Mirrors#EOL_Mirrors but these specific versions were nowhere to be found. I would also be happy with source RPMS for these versions and I could make my own installables. I see that they were built in the build service. So maybe there is hope someone has a copy. So, I am wondering if anyone just happens to have these RPMS hiding somewhere.

[opensuse] How can one list available OpenGL extensions?
by Joachim Schrod 03 Apr '11

03 Apr '11

Hello, I would like to know which OpenGL extensions are supported by an installed system. Is there a program that lists them? I've googled, but found only the proprietary glview that's not available for Linux. The background of my question is that I'm replacing an older 11.1 workstation where VMware's 3D accelaration does not work since two OpenGL extensions are missing. I want to check on the new system if they are available with the onboard Intel graphics card and 11.4, or if I need to order an additional graphics card.

[opensuse] Kmail preview pane
by Stan Goodman 02 Apr '11

02 Apr '11

I am using this laptop for mail for the first time since installing 11.4. In Configure Kmail > Appearance, I have checked "Show message preview pane beneath message, but it doesn't show anywhere. Checking "Show message preview pane at the side" causes the Message listpane to expand and replace the Message pane completely, and a new pane to open at the right, in which the MESSAGE is displayed. The preview information still appears nowhere. In other words, there is no way that I can see a preview, and no way that I can view any HTML attachment, which I sometimes need to do. How to make a more rational layout? -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
