[opensuse] Compiling an app from source has now changed?
by Basil Chupin 17 Mar '13

17 Mar '13

I need Cinelerra for 12.3 but it's nowhere in sight so I downloaded the source code and am trying to compile it using the instructions in the package. However, when I try to use './configure' I get the one finger salute telling me that there is no such thing as ./configure. (Yes, I do have autoconf 'installed' in YaST.) Has something changed that makes it not possible now to compile from source? (I haven't compiled an app. for years but the instructions in the Cinelerra package are only a (?)year or so old.) Any advice appreciated.

[opensuse] phpMyAdmin Configuration Issue on 12.3
by upscope 17 Mar '13

17 Mar '13

Can anyone tell me which config.inc.php file is used, the one in /etc/phpMyAdmin or the one in /srv/www/htdocs/phpMyAdmin? On 12.3 GM both are the same, no link between them, on 12.2 they are different (parameters). phpMyAdmin work on 12.2 but not 12.3. I can log in as user on 12.3 with no password but not as root. went thru resetting root password on 12.3 and still cannot log in. error says server is configured wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[opensuse] 12.3 -- why USB HDD not being seen by Midnight Commander?
by Basil Chupin 16 Mar '13

16 Mar '13

I have an external SATA3 2TB Western Digital HDD which is formatted (at the moment) in ntfs. When I switch it on Dolphin opens this HDD and I can see all the files it contains. But unlike what I got in 12.2 when I start mc (Midnight Commander, my much preferred file manager) mc doesn't 'see' this HDD. In 12.2 it used to be mounted in /media/<name of HDD> . In /etc/filesystem I have 'ntfs' as an addition to the list of file systems. So, why isn't the HDD mounted in /media as in the past? Any clues, please? BC PS The HDD is also recognised in XP and accessible by all file managers (which I have in XP). -- Using openSUSE 12.3 x86_64 with KDE 4.10.1 & kernel 3.8.2-2 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Opensuse 12.3 - device manager
by ianseeks 16 Mar '13

16 Mar '13

hi Since installing 12.3, everytime i logon, device manager pops up and presents me with a 0B removable media (has floppy disk icon) and 3 options on how to deal with it. I don't actually have a floppy disk drive but i think there is a socket on the motherboard for one if i decided to regress.... Its not a problem but its a little annoying - does anyone have any ideas how to stop it happening? regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] can't install 12.2
by Joe Zien 16 Mar '13

16 Mar '13

I have opensuse 12.2 on a dvd from Linux Format magazine issue DVD 164 and am trying to install on a ThinkPad T60 without sucess. 1- keep getting error 1008 and 3030 when suse tries to format the drive. 2- I keep ignoring this error and finally, it starts the installation but locks up sometimes, running out of space, 50GB on laptop. 3- Why can't I select a partition that I formatted using kde partition manager? 4- If I use all the default settings, suse sets the root part 16GIG and the remaining space for the home part, on my laptop, 50GB, on my tower over 500GB. 5- Is there a way to select my own formated partition, suse insists to format partitions and I continue to get error 1008 and 3030. I installed many distros on this laptop and never get those errors when I format and chose what partition to install. jozien17 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] terminal oddity
by Robert Schweikert 15 Mar '13

15 Mar '13

Hi, After moving one of my machines to openSUSE 12.3 from openSUSE 12.2 my .cshrc file is no longer sourced when I start a terminal. I use XFCE and tested the behavior with an xterm, gnome-terminal, and xfce terminal, all behave the same way. THis does not occur on other machines I have upgraded. I already went fishing for ideas on the XFCE list, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas where I need to poke around to get this fixed?

Today I've tested the latest network installation CD's. I can not find an option to select the source and the proxy server. Did I miss something? Has this been removed?

[opensuse] updaters to 12.3 be aware
by Patrick Shanahan 14 Mar '13

14 Mar '13

Check services that you start automagically. After updating to 12.3 this AM I found lm_sensors and apcupsd no longer running. Further checking showed that they were not enabled. Simple solution: systemctl enable lm_sensors.service systemctl start lm_sensors.service same for apcupsd. apcupsd need updating (update just issued) as script wants /usr/sbin/apcupsd now where previous was /sbin/apcupsd -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
