[opensuse] STL c++ - what is wrong with private declaration 'void addSources(const std::list<Source*>& inList);'
by David C. Rankin 20 Jul '12

20 Jul '12

c++ gurus, All, I am having fits with a new gcc'ism (4.7.1) throwing and error on a STL declaration that I cannot figure out. The source is TDE/kima and the error is: In file included from kima.moc.cpp:9:0: ./kima.h:179:24: error: 'list' in namespace 'std' does not name a type ./kima.h:179:29: warning: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'parameter' with no type [-fpermissive] ./kima.h:179:33: error: expected ',' or '...' before '<' token I have put the header file up at: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/tde/err/kima/kima.h.txt The primary "error: 'list' in namespace 'std' does not name a type" seems like it would have an easy fix of the type http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/51696/ but it is already in the proper form/syntax/semantics, etc.. The error implies that somehow that list isn't namespace qualified, but it is. It is like gcc/glibc doesn't know what a STL list is any more. Anybody have a take on this one. It's probably simple, but I can't find it :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Changing Yast behaviour
by eddie 19 Jul '12

19 Jul '12

I decided to try out mplayer2. There was also mplayer2-as-mplayer which adds "mplayer" symbolic links to mplayer2. When installing these two, I noticed that get_iplayer which has a mplayer dependency was also removed. When I tried to reinstall get_iplayer not only did it fail because it could not find mplayer but all other successful downloads where not installed also. The action of Yast not to install all other packages because one fails I find extremely annoying. Is there a way the to counter this action? I can understand why some may think this is a good idea but I honestly hate it. If one program fails to download it is enough just to be informed about it so that I can seek a solution but to stop all other installations whether or not they are related to the failed download is really not necessary and irritating. I have managed to install get_iplayer without mplayer and it works fine. However, everytime I start Yast it nags that there is a dependency issue with get_iplayer. Is there a way to turn this off too? Any help on how to change the behaviour of Yast would be greatly appreciated.

[opensuse] Open SuSE 11.4
by Carl Spitzer 19 Jul '12

19 Jul '12

at the login screen in the lower left corner there are two items: "Secession Type" and "Menu" and no mention on www.opensuse.com how to edit the first one. I have both kde4.x and the better KDE 3.5.10 and wish to add my choice to the Secession Type menu. I found nothing on the web either on this. Where do I find this item and edit it??

[opensuse] Wrong colours in flash videos viewed in Firefox 10.0.3
by Rodney Baker 19 Jul '12

19 Jul '12

Hi all. Running Firefox 10.0.3, flash player 11.2.202.236-17.1. Red and blue are swapped for video playback on web pages (esp. YouTube) in Firefox. Yes, I do mean that - red and blue are swapped. Whatever is supposed to be blue shows as red and vice versa (with corresponding effects on other colours containing either red or blue. The only colours not affected are purple (128,0,128) and green (0,255,0). They're fine in google chrome. NVidia GeForce 9400GT running the NVidia driver version 290.10 on kernel 3.1.0. Has anyone else seen this? Any suggestions (other than sticking to chrome for youtube etc.)?

[opensuse] openSUSE flaunting GPL
by Linda Walsh 18 Jul '12

18 Jul '12

Seems like openSUSE doesn't bother to include sources anymore for building their packages. Since no one seem to care about the bug in the spec-file for samba-3.6.3 causing it's build to fail, the fact that perl5.14.2 doesn't build is become evidence of a pattern. The spec file has a requirement on a package 'db-devel', yet there is no such package. Presumably it would include the necessary /usr/include/db.h file that defines the dbm_open call needed for perl5 to build as well. Doesn't this violate the GPL that allows suse's software to be licensed under the GPL? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

12.1 with vb 4.1.18 Hi everyone Backing up a 16GB vdi to USB via rsync takes over 30 minutes, even though I have changed only one file within the VM. I realise the VM is one file, but is there a way of syncing it without doing the whole vdi each time?

[opensuse] Why does the 'apper' app not show what it is downloading?
by OddBall 18 Jul '12

18 Jul '12

Hi, I have used 'apper' for the 'updating', several times now. It shows an enormous window..... with nothing in it.... just a moving bar.. So why doesn't it show what it does, like zypper, and yast? Or is it not finished yet, and we have to wait for the update that it shows what it does? Regards, Rob. -- Have a nice day, Oddball.
