No can't start guest machine. After reboot I get the same error as at the top of this email. Tried again with /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup but still gives the same as above. Seems it's stuck here for some reason.

[opensuse] nfs, dhcp, dns and Kerberos
by lynn 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

12.1 server with 12.1 and win7 clients Hi The only way I can mount a kerberized nfs 3 or 4 share on a client is to hard code the ip's into /etc/hosts and have a fixed IP clients even though I have bind 9 configured for (and working with) dynamic dns updates. Windows clients are served Kerberized cifs via the same server. With dhcp, rpc.gssd reports that the correct entry is found in the client ketab, but the KDC reports that the same key , host/fqdn cannot be found. The mount fails with access denied. Reverting to fixed IP, the keys match and the mount goes ahead. Can I have Kerberized nfs with dynamic dns?

[opensuse] how to add users non interactively?
by Andreas 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi, is there a convenient way to add a couple of user accounts in a non interactive way? I'd like to have a scrpipt that does something like useradd user1 --p pass1 -G group1, group2 useradd user2 --p pass2 -G group2, group3 ... I'd rather have those passwords unencrypted in the batch file as I can make sure noone will see it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] choose keyboard layout
by lynn 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

12.1 LXDE Hi I use my usb memory stick install on Spanish and English computers. Is there a method I can use like in kde where you can choose the keyboard without having to be root? Or can anyone point me to the bit where it decides this? Thanks, L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Is it possible to do a Kernel downgrade on OpenSUSE 12.1?
by Carlos Xavier 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

Hi. I configured cluster with DRBD + OCFS2 + Pacemaker +Mysql on OpenSUSE 12.1. When doing some testes I may have found a bug at the kernel or DRBD. With the DRBD configured and running I started to stop and start it on the server, this triggers trouble that the machine so heavy loaded that it cant even be restarted. The kernel writes to the log messages a buch of lines reporting a bug.

[opensuse] Does dhcp on a bonded interface work?
by Per Jessen 25 Mar '12

25 Mar '12

$SUBJECT says it all - I'm trying to use dhcp on a bonded interface, but I'm not getting anywhere, i.e. I don't see any DHCP requests arriving on the dhcp server. According to this: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bonding dhcp on bonded interfaces does not work, but the text refers to SLES9 and is three years old, so perhaps it works now? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] how to trace strange seamonkey problem?
by Istvan Gabor 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hello: I have got a very strange seamonkey problem. It is on openSUSE 11.2 with KDE 3.5.10 and the newest seamonkey, version 2.8. Seamonkey is set so, that it opens all links in the same tab. On one computer 'go back' switches back to the the same view of the previous page where the page was left, while on another computer 'go back' always switches back to the top of the previous page, which is very annoying. This also applies when the same seamonkey profile is copied from one computer to the other. I have already asked about this on the mozillazine seamonkey forum but haven't got any useful response. For more detailed problem description please see http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=2445227&sid=556ed09c67df… How could I trace what the problem can be, so that I could fix it?

[opensuse] ATI proprietary driver, should I, and how? 11.4

23 Mar '12

I have seen about a dozen means to do it. The OSS driver is surprisingly good, but I want more performance for a couple games. First off, should I swith to fglrx? Secondly, why isn't there something simple like the NVidia repo?

[opensuse] Virtual Box won't connect to Internet
by Regis Matejcik 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

'm using a new installation of OpenSuse 12.1 - 64bit ... Recently installed "VirtualBox-4.1-4.1.10_76795_openSUSE114-1.x86_64.rpm" as downloaded from the VirtualBox site. The install seemed to go smoothly. I then installed "Openbravo-3.0MP8.1-x86_64.virtualbox.vdi" and used the recommended guest OS of linux 2.6. Again the installation went smoothly and the program seemed to run correctly. I then attempted to enable the "heartbeat" feature which requires the VM to connect to the internet. I got an error message: "java.lang. Exception: There was a problem establishing a connection to the internet. If you are behind a firewall or connect to the internet through a proxy, please make sure your settings are correct." I checked the router firewall and made sure ports 80 and 443 were open for the VM local IP address. Still no connection. There is no proxy server. I attempted using NAT - but OpenBravo won't run at all using the NAT option. After reading some forum posts, I also installed: Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.10-76795.vbox-extpack , still no connection. Any hints or suggestions on how this may be resolved are greatly appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Using YAST, how far back can I go to - automatically - get the community repositories ? I just tried 11.1 and 11.2, and YAST says the community repositories can not be found.

[opensuse] Intel Integrated Performance Primitives on openSUSE
by Roger Oberholtzer 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

I have been using the intel Integrated Performance Primitives on openSUSE for a while. I am now updating the libraries, and the install claims that my OS is not supported. When I query what the supported OS are, I get this list: - Red Hat Enterprise Linux* 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 (IA-32/Intel(R) 64) - Fedora* 15 (IA-32/Intel(R) 64) - SuSE Linux* Enterprise Server* 10.x, 11.0 SP1(IA-32/Intel(R)64) - Asianux* Server 3.0, 4.0 (IA-32/Intel(R) 64) - Ubuntu* 10.04 LTS, 11.04 (IA-32/Intel(R) 64) - Debian 6.0 (IA-32/Intel(R) 64) - Pardus 2011.2 (Intel(R) 64) The install lets you ignore this, and the RPMs install ok and I can build applications. Are openSUSE cooperating with intel in any way to ensure that it is on the list of OS supported by intel in their Linux products? The IPP are a very powerful set of libraries that offer substantial speed improvements for many things. See http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-ipp/, which unfortunately does not even come close to telling all this toolkit has. For one thing, it has what is probably the fastest jpeg implementation. I did some comparisons of various implementations, and IPP won hands down. Of course, IPP is closed source and not free. But it is so cheap that it deserves a look by any software developer.

[opensuse] XFCE does not show window borders only on local login
by Andre Truter 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hello, I have a very weird situation. My Dad is running openSUSE 12.1 with XFCE desktop. One day something went wrong and the windowing system stopped working. So if he opens an application, it has no window border, so it cannot be moved and focus cannot be changed between applications. I enabled the remote management in Yast and logged in via VNC, but remote management gives a second desktop session, not his running session. If I log in via vnc (port 5901), then everything works fine, even if we open a vnc session from his local session the desktopn in ghe vnc session works fine. So, why would a local xfce session to the screen not have the windowing system, but a remote session via VNC does have it. Does anybody know what the difference is? I expect that the VNC session does not load certain config files, or override some, but which? We also tried to remove the .config directory in his home, but that does not solve the problem.

[opensuse] Thunderbird 11.99-2.1 on oS12.1

Dear all, I have just updated thunderbird to version 11.99-2.1 (from repo Mozilla:Beta) and now I have no more sound notifications when new mail arrives. If I revert to the previous version (11.0-3.1 from the Mozilla repo), I have sound notification. The problem occurs with both system sound and custom sound. If I try to play the custom sound using the button near "Browse", I obtain no sound. Is this a known problem?

[opensuse] Restore MySQL lost ? pmadb and pma user ??
by LLLActive＠GMX.Net 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hi all, I just restored a MySQL database with phpMySQL. There are more databases sharing the MySQLServer, each with it's own prefix in the one Database. I made phpMySQL export of all databases to backup.sql. Oddly, my most important database and pmadb was not restored from the backup.sql file, but 4 other almost empty databases did restore. I then started checking the phpMySQL reports about the failing entries in the config.inc.php, and now only have to do the pma setups. I also created the pma tables with the script /scripts/create_tables.sql. I then imported the update script '/scripts/upgrade_tables_mysql_4_1_2+.sgl', then the settings for pma was recognised from the config.inc.php file. I saw with the import of the backup.sql that the max file size was set to 2.048 KiB. I set the option: $cfg['MemoryLimit'] string [number of bytes] as "$cfg['MemoryLimit'] = '16M';" The notes from the Documentation: Set the number of bytes a script is allowed to allocate. If set to zero, no limit is imposed. This setting is used while importing/exporting dump files and at some other places in phpMyAdmin so you definitely don't want to put here a too low value. It has no effect when PHP is running in safe mode. You can also use any string as in php.ini, eg. '16M'. Ensure you don't omit the suffix (16 means 16 bytes!) I rested "rcmysql reload" and "rcapache2 restart". The max fie size in phpMySQL remains at 2,048KiB in the GUI and also aborts the import. I can read the backup.sql and see the "most important database" named and all the tables in the file. What am I missing? .oOOo. .Dreiel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
