[opensuse] Android print solution?
by David C. Rankin 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Guys, With the iphone we were able to configure good print function via CUPS/Avahi, is there anything similar that can be done with an Android tablet? Looking, it doesn't appear that there is any basic print capability provided by Android (3.2 Honeycomb). I would like to print to by openSuSE server in the same manner I do from iOS. Anybody found a good solution? I have found PrintBot, but that isn't a solution because it cannot be used legally where confidentiality is required. (data is transferred to a 3rd party server before printing). I need to find a direct print solution. What says the braintrust? -- David C.

[opensuse] What is it with this behaviour in 12.3?
by Basil Chupin 31 May '13

31 May '13

In another thread I mentioned that when I switch on my external 2TB USB WD HDD, Dolphin accesses it and displays its contents to me; but then when I go to use mc (Midnight Commander) this device is no longer mounted in /media as it has been in past many years but now is found in /var/run/media/<username>/<devicename> [in this case the volume name is WD]. Quite by accident a few minutes ago ('cause I am having another hassle, to be describe later) I discovered that the device is ALSO mounted in 'run/media/<username>/<device>'. (How many times is such a device 'mounted' and where else may I find it?) Has anyone else found this to be the case?

[opensuse] Clone SSD via rsync?
by MarkusGMX 21 May '13

21 May '13

I tried to clone the windows files from /windows/C on a 128GB SSD, NTFS filesystem to a 256GB SSD, which was formatted NTFS on a SATA<->USB Adapter, via rsync. That was ok, but when I list the files I get /media/M4SSD256/Windows/SysWOW64/config/systemprofile/Vorlagen -> /windows/C/.NTFS-3G/C:/Windows/System32/config/systemprofile/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Templates What is this ".NTFS-3G"? Does the NTFS driver for SuSE 12.1 create some intermediate directories? (the 128GB SSD works ok all the time). I did not replace the 128GB with the 256GB up to now...

12.3 I want to run a script every hour. I put it in /etc/cron.hourly Surely it can't be as simple as that. Is there a gotcha? Thanks, L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

I was using LXDM to login to xfce and raised this issue on the xfce mailing list, but it turned out not to be a desktop issue. See this thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-xfce/2013-03/msg00012.html There's a couple of bug reports I linked to in that thread, but there's no fix and no action on them for some months. As a consequence, I recently just tried changing to LightDM and I can logout/login okay. I was using LXDM previously because it had working language selection, but that has now been fixed in LightDM too.

[opensuse] Using # with F2
by James Knott 04 May '13

04 May '13

For many years, I have pressed F2 to run stuff such as man, by entering #<command> in the pop up box. For some reason, this has now broken. When I do that, Seamonkey opens, which does not know how to handle those commands, instead of Konqueror. Firefox is set as the default browser. Any idea on how I can get this to work properly again? I'm running openSUSE 12.2 & KDE 4. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] FTP Server
by Paul Groves 03 May '13

03 May '13

Hi all, I have been trying to set up an ftp server using vsftpd. I am trying to set it up so that each user has their own ftp folder and when they log in they access only this folder by default. Sounds simple enough, but I have come across two problems: * The $user environment variable does not seem to be recognised by vsftpd (i.e. set the authenticated users folder to /srv/ftp/$user). * vsftpd does not appear to be recognising acls -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
