[opensuse] Not sure what to make of this...
by Insomniac 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

I'm running 11.3 on one hdd and W2K on a second hdd. On both I have the app needed to play an online rpg (GemStone IV). On the linux hdd, the app works fine, but I can't get the 'extra' to work with it so I can use the maps (it's called 'lich'). On the winblows side, this all worked quite well at one time (nothing to do with this post). I happened to notice yesterday, that after I'd played a short while on the linux hdd, I decided I wanted to try the windows app, just to see if I could get it working again. I left all the 'settings' (fonts I use for the most part on the linux hdd app) as they were, of course. Logged out and restarted the system to get to grub and choose windows. No problem. I boot into windows, get dialed in to my ISP and then start the app. I was able to get online into the game, *but*, the app was using the linux fonts! I have nothing installed on the windows hdd except Warcraft III and this app, oh and Firefox. That's it. no new fonts other than what the w2k cd installed. So, I adjusted the settings on the app to 'tahoma 10 pt', logged out and restarted the computer. Got to grub and chose opensuse 11.3. I get dialed in online and open the app and lo and behold, the app has the 'tahoma' settings! How is this possible? I don't have anything installed on the linux hdd that should be changing anything automagically on the winblows hdd, as far as I know. I *can* go to the windows hdd using krusader or whatever and copying back and forth, but that's just simple file stuff I do, nothing like installing anything from one hdd to another, like an app or anything. It has me a little nervous, because it seems like this is an easy way to somehow get onto my linux hdd and 'do stuff', no? Is this something I should be worrying about or is it just a fluke of RAM or something like that? It sure is strange and a bit unsettling, at least until I understand what is happening. -- "Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived." -Isaac Asimov -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] printer ML-1710 no longer supported in 11.4?
by Carlos Frederico Lange 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

The small laser printer Samsung ML-1710 was supported until openSUSE 11.3 with a Foomatic gdi ppd. This printer is no longer listed under the CUPS+Gutenprint ppds for OS 11.4. Only 1750 is listed and it does not work with the older printer. Is there a way to use the old ppd?

In openSUSE 11.0, I could use an advanced option in Knetworkmanager notifications to run a script, when WiFi connected. I used this to run rdisc6 to get IPv6 info from the router. I don't see this option in 11.4.

[opensuse] Nvidia vs ATI
by Stan Goodman 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Since there is no available driver for the Intel HD Integrated Graphics card on the Intel MB I bought last week, I've inquired about supported PCI Express cards that I could install instead. My usual merchant carries cards of Ndivia and ATI, and has in stock ATI HD3650. A web search assures me that this card belongs to the Redeon series; <man ati> says that Radeon is supported, so I assume that this one is. He also has similar Nvidia cards. I am shying away from Nvidia because I have seen over the years so many discussions about difficulties, perhaps quirks in the available drivers, that make them seem like avoidable trouble. And yet I know that many buy and use them, so I am perhaps exaggerating the risk. I'd be happy to read any comment anyone has to offer about this. -- 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

[opensuse] chrony and hwclock
by Roger Oberholtzer 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

I am exploring changing the way our remote openSUSE systems (not connected to the internet) maintain proper time. We have GPS devices in these system, but have thus far only used the time for our own devious purposes. We have never tried to maintain the system time. The popular wisdom on the gpsd list (all things related to GPS access on Linux) is that one should use chrony (http://chrony.tuxfamily.org) rather then NTP for this purpose. The reason given is that NTP does not deal well with a time source that is perhaps seldom available. See http://chrony.tuxfamily.org/FAQ.html#question_2.1 In order to use chrony, hwclock must be disabled on system shutdown. This is because chrony would like to be the one that sets the clock when the system comes up - perhaps without a GPS time source - but keeping the time as close to correct as possible. If, on openSUSE systems, I disable hwclock on shutdown only, what madness might ensue? I don't mean 'Will the time be wrong?' I assume that chrony will take care of that. But perhaps there are some other system activities that are dependent on hwclock running at shutdown?

[opensuse] KMail + KDE wallet malfunction after upgrade to 11.4
by Myrosia Dzikovska 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

I recently upgraded to OpenSuse 11.4. I use KMail, and store my SMTP password using KWallet. But for some reason Kmail is having problems. When I start the system up, kwallet opens immediately, because I use it for my wireless password as well. This does not have any problems: the wallet opens, the I get the wireless connection, and it all works. The wallet configuration shows that KMail is always allowed access. But when I start KMail and try to use it to send email, it immediately pops up a dialog box asking for my SMTP password. I type it in, and click the option "store password". Kmail responds that KWallet is not available, and would I like to store it in plain text file? Then KWallet pops up a notification saying "There have been repeated failed attempts to gain access to a wallet. An application may be misbehaving." I tried going into KWalletManager and deleting all fields related to kmail, then saving the password from scratch. It did not help. Anyone experienced something like that?

[opensuse] Sage Math & OpenSuSE 11.4 Problems

Hi ! Anyone have tried to install latest Sage binary from http://www.sagemath.org/ ? I have tried Fedora and Ubuntu compiled binaries, both are basically dirs with all packages/binaries/libs complied inside. Sage starts and aborts with dubious Python errors. It should not relate to Python which ships with SuSE because Sage uses its own Python binaries. I have seen reports from other users trying to compile Sage on SuSE. It could be quite time consuming since Sage is huge - around 2 GB.

It's needed for production servers to get full performance; it yields roughly a 10% speed improvement.

This is not about interactive observation of time with commands that are run after login. We're talking about syslog timestamps that were made during boot, actually the exact timestamp in the syslog message that ntpd has been started. This timestamp is 2 hours off. In addition, specifically I have posted a series of steps to check proper working of /etc/init.d/boot.clock, to analyse the root cause of that wrong timestamp in the ntpd startup syslog message. This has nothing to do at all with any interactive commands. Roger's issue is definitively not a problem of user commands that are issued on any command line. syslog doesn't care about any TZ value, definitively; I hope we don't have to argue about that. Since the error already appears in syslog timestamps during system startup, any search for problems in his interactive command-line setup is misleading and distracts from his problem's real root cause. And thus I'm not 100% beside the point. $\qed$ ;-) Joachim -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joachim Schrod Email: jschrod(a)acm.org Roedermark, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Kernel - OOPS message appeared on desktop - What Happened??
by David C. Rankin 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

Guys, Today in 11.4, the screen went black for a second and then a little message, sort of like the thunderbird new mail notification, appeared and said that I had experienced a "Kernel Oops" and that I should report it to kernel.org. The dialog gave me the option to report it, which I did, and in a few seconds another similar dialog appeared telling me that I had successfully reported it to kernel.org. My question is where can I find what happened and what was reported? I'm running kernel-desktop-2.6.37.6-0.5.1.x86_64 and I presume the little dialog was the result of: kerneloops-0.12-41.1.x86_64 kerneloops-applet-0.12-41.1.x86_64 Before my 'rpm -qa | grep kernel' just now, I had no idea these things existed. Checking the logs, it looks like an iphone was plugged in and then the Radeon GPU locked up?? I am not the best at reading these things and if anybody can decipher it a bit more, I would welcome the help. My guess is that the information between the: ------------[ cut here ]------------ <snip> ---[ end trace 2eeba6386f2c0ac1 ]--- is what got reported.

[opensuse] LMMS on openSUSE 11.4
by Istvan Gabor 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

Hello: I want to install LMMS on 11.4. The package is lmms-0.4.11-1.pm.1.3 from packman, and when I select it, it autoselects the following packages: [Autoinstall] wine [Autoinstall] wine-32bit [Autoinstall] wine-gecko [Autoinstall] wine-mp3 Why LMMS requires wine? Is that normal? Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

"All the broken links"? I have only javaws as a broken link. Well, at my installation jre_1.6.0, jre_1.6.0_exports, jre_openjdk, jre_openjdk_exports remain links to 64bit openjdk, as I kept that for the sake of those openSUSE programs that want Java. >> It works very good, very few problems up to now.

But I checked in Yast and noted that > the x64 bit versions are installed and have no idea whether I need to > reinstall with the x32 bit versions? There are no 32bit versions that one can install properly. (Such packages would be named libtcnative-1-0-32bit etc.) Installing libtcnative-1-0.i586 was a no-go since it would pull in 32bit Apache via its dependency to libapr1. As I wrote, you have to make these packages yourself. Installing them forcefully breaks your system in a way that it would be better to install 32bit-PAE from the start, IMHO. > How far do I need to go in tracking > down what packages need to be switched to the x32 bit versions, now that > I have the x32 bit version of Java installed? Doesn't YaST (and the > packages dependencies check this for me, or is the packaging broken?) I use zypper, not YaST, but the dependency checks should be the same. So far, zypper recognized when a 32bit-version of some mandatory library was missing and either installed the respective package or complained about it, when it was missing. I have more the other problem, that zypper sometimes wants to install a 32bit library package and I have no idea at all what pulls in that dependency. An other issue, which resembles more your situation, is that YaST/zypper do these installations only for mandatory dependencies. Both libtcnative and libsvnjavahl are not mandatory; Tomcat and SVN-Java work without them. So, if no fitting packages are found, none are installed. So, to answer your question: You have to hunt down all optional JNI stuff or all JNI stuff that is used by software that you install besides the openSUSE packaging system. You probably have to make familiar yourself with creating local rpm packages or with OBS, since some of the needed packages are definitively not there. If that is too complicated or too much work, make an openSUSE 32-bit installation; that's my best advice I can give. >> mozilla-xulrunner20.i586 >> mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome.i586 > Yes, I had the x64 version of these installed also.. So decided to be > pre-emptive and switch them over to the i586 (x32) versions also. Again, > I have no idea how much I am going to have to chase down, in the > packages, to switch over to an x32 bit version... This is a case where you installed software (Eclipse) besides the openSUSE packaging software. How shall YaST know that Eclipse needs the Mozilla runtime in i586 architecture, to be loaded by JNI, when it doesn't know about the Eclipse installation at all? Here you are responsible to chase down the dependencies yourself. > This in part is why I > originally asked the question - Is changing from an x64 version of a > java vm to an x32 version supported in openSuSE? I would say that it is not is supported in openSUSE in the sense that it's certainly not a use case that any developper tested. (In a was, nothing is "supported"; this is a community distribution.) It's available for those who are willing to spend some time with their system setup, but they should preferebly be familiar with system setup and packaging beyond usage of YaST. > Or do I need to scrap > the installation entirely and see if I can re-install openSuSE for an > x32 architecture. This would be a REAL PITA!!! (I dunno/remember if the > installation even allowed me the choice, so much of this sort of > decision making has been automated these days.. Sigh... ) It is possible to install x32 on 64bit hardware. On the installation screen, there is some F? key where you can change the architecture. > (As an aside, I am apparently having troubles now with our Apache James > email server handling crypto communications with email clients. I kinda > suspect it may be related also to having an x64 version of some java > package installed, which should be an x32 bit version... SO will have to > try and track that one down also...) crypto is also not mandatory, IIRC. You'll probably need to install one or several of the x86_64 openssl packages whose names end with -32bit.

I appreciate you trying to save me from myself, but I'm not trying to do anthing complicated here. The driver required that the kernel-source be installed. So that isa what I did. Nothing more, nothing less. My second post was precipitated by the fact that after I found the proper kernel-source and installed it, when I tried to "make" the driver and got the "misdconfigured kernel" message. ( 2nd post) (misidentified as a bash command thru ignorance) Soooo.....You are the "C" expert. Can you help me out here? I just want to compile this stupid webcam driver.

[opensuse] Basket .... not working - HELP!

19 Jul '11

OUCH Earlier this week I tried using LXDE and messed up the windows decorations .... go back and see that thread :-( Recovery involved zapping ~/.kde4 And being flustered and botherated I forget to back up my baskets OUCH. So, with it all working again, I decided to move the basket storage out of ~/.kde4 and into ~/Documents/Baskets :-) and restored from two weeks ago. Now when I restart basket I get the one basket called "General" and it has nothing in it. In ~/Documents/Baskets are all the things I think should be there. ~/.kde4/share/config/basketsrc correctly points to ~/Documents/Baskets If I try importing I get error messages saying all the dozens of baskets are already there. But they are not displaying.

[opensuse] interest for scientific computing BoF for oSC?
by Andre Massing 19 Jul '11

19 Jul '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there! I just want to quickly check whether there is a general interest for a get together at the oSC of people working with scientific computing (SC) software and openSUSE. A motivation behind this is to discuss how to improve opensuse as platform for scientific computing. I am in general very satisfied with my shortterm experience of openSUSE, including tumbleweed, but I after my recent switch to this distribution I discovered that quite some packages which are interested in my SC corner are either outdated or not available in the *official* repos. Some of these are: openmpi outdated (1.2.8) libatlas (none) mayavi and enthought related packages (none) python-scipy (none) paraview petsc,trilinos, armadillo (none) netgen, tetgen, triangle (none) bullet (none) cgal, gts (none) scientific python (none) suitesparse? Some of these are spread over different projects like Science and Education, which results in a significant overlap of packages with different version numbers, possible incompatibilities etc. So an idea might be to talk about how to improve the situation, software which might be interesting to package (maybe even trying to start a unifying SC project) or about what else comes into your mind! As I said that are some first thoughts and I am looking forward to hearing any comment, suggestion etc. Cheers, Andre -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJOJFJuAAoJEA79ggnbq9dmZvAH/RnGBzM1Gxjhyo7fJJo2+gGC CJDzdg0T7OHcQUl588lQiVJrayFrUbs9mSddm0DG6XVrBIndJc2OTEuRZhBeBbka BtQbzdDKPLDyRSZ301OS4KCkDzdzEDuGunwtQ5svA5tOgEx7EDfjuwMSV9UmdQR/ 4qoTNG/du88YcKM3dk2odFBwOpm5lU6wEqA06Aw/CaR2TB8mIszilvNZdx/9Ic5y CYkz/TMXWvqGglQoy+y+12poJ9olZj0B3wAStfB78/9aLeNUT5YMWfW5ogo9cehW T7lAJZlJeITh7eico12BJNq5wBNzHmb6BE8NewGjbfCtaT/NieLJH7FnTvyqk2Y= =Y7Gq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
