[opensuse] How to edit entries in the "Run Command" menu.
by Terry Eck 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Using 12.1 version of OpenSUSE. Right mouse button allows selecting the "Run Command" (ALT-F2 also selects this command). Can someone tell me where the command entries are stored? I have several entries which need to be deleted.

I ask because when I enter routes into yast-network > devices-network settings-routing, I lose all connectivity to that server. Those are simply different ways of setting routes. With Yast, the routes are stored in /etc/sysconfig/network/routes. You can manually add routes with the route command, as shown in that article. However, if you use the route commands, the routes will disappear when you reboot, so you'd have to include them in a script that runs at boot. When you save the routes in the routes file, they get loaded automatically as part of the boot up process. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Silly little text file editing question............
by Duaine Hechler 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Since I've been out of the mainframe world for about 13 years, what happened to the mainframe style "full screen" text editors being standard in Linux. Like, XEDIT, KEDIT, ISPF. And I know about vi, kate, and kwrite BUT these are NOT full screen "text" editors - these are full screen "line" editor. Unlike, XEDIT, where you can move, copy, insert, delete, etc - easily - "blocks" of lines I know versions of these exist, like the "THE" editor. However, why haven't these become the "standard" ? (Even XEDIT, starts basically in character basic "console" mode (no graphics capabilities needed), which could be run in a Linux console session) Having a "system programming" background, I just don't understand why anyone would put up with a "line" editor.

[opensuse] Kmail, conflict resolution
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Using kmail for years and are still a more or less happy user. One thing I do not like is the pop-up telling me that there is a "Conflict Resolution" to attend. This pop-up shows up at the most unexpected times and is not always visible. Does somebody know how to let this thingy do its job without human interference. As I over the time never found differences between the left and right one I standard pick the left one. If that could be done automatically it would be of great help. -- Linux User 183145 using KDE4 on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 12.2 (i586) Kernel: 3.4.28-2.20-default KDE Development Platform: 4.10.00 "release 550" 19:55pm up 8:13, 3 users, load average: 0.75, 0.48, 0.68 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Help with Static Routes
by Chris Arnold 01 Mar '13

I know what you all are going to say, "this is not the SLES forum" but i have meet a dead-end at the SLES11 forum so i thought i would ask here since opensuse and SLES are suse based. I have a SLES11 SP2 server with multi-nic's and i was having a problem described here: http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7000318 So i followed this TID and everything is working the way i expect it to work. The problem is, these entries/routes do not survive a reboot and i have to manually type them in again. So is there any way to have these routes static? In other Linux distro's, you put these entries in a script located in /etc/sysconfig/networkXXX/XXXX. Where does one put static routes in a suse based OS? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] opensuse 12.3 RC | starting LSB... and freeze
by Luis González 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Hello, I'm installing the opensuse 12.3 RC and I noticed an issue before the installation finished, and after reviewed several times I realized the error (laptop freeze completely) occurred when starting LSB. /var/log/messages not shown relevant info boot.log said Failed to start Network Manager, and of course I do no have network devices. When a launch yast and go to Network Devices, the error occurred again detecting devices... systemctl status NetworkManager.service said Active: failed status = 1/FAILURE What can I do to fix this issue? Can I look in other log files? Any suggestions? thank you! -- Luis González @ GMAIL -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
