[opensuse] QGIS and OSM from OBS
by Roger Oberholtzer 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

Is anyone using QGIS with Open Street Map data? Specifically with the QGIS version available from OBS. Although I am interested in oS 12.3, experiences on any oS release are welcome. In my case, none of the built-in OSM functions/ICONS are appearing anywhere. -- Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer Ramböll RST / Systems Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer(a)ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

I _suspect_ the problem is in the yacc/bison compatability feature (bison -y) or the lex/flex compatability -l option no longer doing something it should be. Drastically changing the code is not an option for me. I am lex/yacc ignorant (intensionally) and would rather stay that way. I think/hope it's a bug in one of those two things mentioned above. Maybe they will fix it if it is. Probably been a long time since those 2 things were tested.

[opensuse] SuSE Linux release version search
by Mark Hounschell 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

I have an executable that works but am now unable to build it from source. I'm currently running 12.3 and I've gone back as far as 10.3 to no avail. It is a lex/yacc thing and I am lex/yacc ignorant. I can tell from the executable which gcc and glibc were used. I'm looking for the SuSE release that came with that particular version of gcc/glibc. #strings -a executable_ELF_file | grep "GCC: (" GCC: (GNU) 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux) . . and #strings -a executable_ELF_file | grep -i "GLIBC" GLIBC_2.1 GLIBC_2.0 /usr/src/packages/BUILD/glibc-2.3.2/csu /usr/src/packages/BUILD/glibc-2.3.2/csu /usr/src/packages/BUILD/glibc-2.3.2/csu . . Not sure how to go about finding which release had these versions. Anyone?

It was actually the flex and yacc/bison packages I really needed the info for. I was going to install the 8.2 to find out. This is much easier. Thanks again.

[opensuse] Classic music
by Kaare Rasmussen 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

Hi I've failed before but I want to try again after having purchased a copy of Verdi's complete works. The task is to rip all my classic cd's, organize them and make it easy to play. Now, AIUI most audio players know about songs, or tracks, and albums, or cd's. Classic music needs a little bit more control. A piece of work can span several cd's (as most operas do), or two complete opposites can share a cd (I have one with Beethoven's Pastorale symphony and Tjajkovskij's Pathétique. What I want is a way to just find a piece of work, e.g. a recording of Don Giovanni, 3 cd's and play it, or just listen to the cavatina from the same opera, having the choice from all the recordings I have. So I wanted to try Amarok. I tried to rip a cd containing Carl Nielsen's 3rd and 4th symphonies (Espansiva and Inextinguishable) but immediately ran into trouble. The composer wasn't recognized, and I want to classify the genre as well. Best as two levels (classic/symphony), but there seemed to be no way to tell Amarok that. Sure, there is an option to edit information about the tracks, but all fields (Genre, Composer, etc) were disabled. Not sure that is the way to do it either. Any best practice advise for that, or for any other player? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] problem connecting with vsftp (12.3)
by jdd 06 Nov '13

06 Nov '13

Hello, I have unexpected problem connecting to my 12.3 server using ftp. I nearly never use ftp to connect to this server, but wordpress install needs it. I have vsftp running and need to login using root account (I know...) the problem may (or not) come from the fact the server is a virtual machine ports 20 & 21 are forwarded by the host to the same on the guest (host and guest same 12.3) root was removed from /etc/ftpusers and the vsftpd service restarted when I ftp root(a)server.tld, I *can* log, issue a pwd command (->/root) or a cd command, but ls immediately close the connection. same, ftp root@... with dolphin opens the connection but give a "can't read" message. my old config file (11.4, working) write_enable=YES dirmessage_enable=YES nopriv_user=ftpsecure ftpd_banner=Bienvenue sur le ftp de Dodin.info ls_recurse_enable=YES local_enable=YES local_umask=022 anonymous_enable=YES anon_world_readable_only=YES anon_umask=022 syslog_enable=YES connect_from_port_20=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd listen_ipv6=YES ssl_enable=NO pasv_min_port=30000 pasv_max_port=30100 the new 12.3 config file: write_enable=YES dirmessage_enable=YES nopriv_user=ftpsecure ftpd_banner=Bienvenue sur le ftp de Nemo. local_enable=YES chroot_local_user=YES anonymous_enable=NO anon_world_readable_only=YES syslog_enable=NO connect_from_port_20=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd listen=YES ssl_enable=NO pasv_min_port=30000 pasv_max_port=30100 anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO anon_root=/srv/ftp anon_upload_enable=NO chroot_local_user=NO ftpd_banner=Bienvenue sur le ftp de Nemo idle_session_timeout=900 log_ftp_protocol=NO max_clients=10 max_per_ip=3 pasv_enable=YES ssl_sslv2=NO ssl_sslv3=NO ssl_tlsv1=NO (last line was YES, but YES or NO do not change my problem) If I simply copy the 11.4 file to the new server, the vsftp start hangs.. any idea? thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
