[opensuse] R packages
by Vojtěch Zeisek 08 Apr '13

08 Apr '13

Hello, Fedora has very nicely packaged contribution packages for R (http://www.r-project.org/), try to browse https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/ and they have tools to do it, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:R We have http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/ but it is practically empty. :-( Well, it would be very nice to have all the tones of R packages from mirrors like http://cran.r-project.org/ , http://www.rforge.net/ or http://www.bioconductor.org/ It is possible to install R's packages using R's tools, but very often it has to be compiled, which can be very tricky. Now, there is now way how to do it easily - just see logs and from errors guess which libraries are required... And sometimes I find, that it requires unavailable packages. Like recent upgrade of RGoogleMaps requiring libpng14, which I didn't find for openSUSE 12.3... But it's just small example... Well, is there any hope, that we could see R packages in openSUSE in near future? ;-) Last note: If I'd be able to do it, I'd do it. ;-) Have a nice day, Vojtěch -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux http://www.opensuse.org/ http://trapa.cz/

[opensuse] [12.3 64Bit KDE]-Any Safe Method To Slow Down CPU?
by Jesse Palser 08 Apr '13

[12.3 64Bit KDE]-Any Safe Method To Slow Down CPU? Hi, Running openSUSE 12.3 64Bit KDE on a ridiculously fast desktop. I am a video game software developer and was wondering if it was possible to safely under-clock my fast CPU so I could test game engine performance? Fast desktop has an AMD FX 3.5GHz(4GHz Max Turbo) 8-Core CPU. Was just wondering if there was some safe method to under-clock this CPU through some openSUSE command? (was hoping to clock the CPU to about 1GHz) For now, I've been using my Internet box with an Intel Atom 1.8GHz CPU. Would prefer using the other fast desktop though. (rarely have the want to play Half-Life 2 in WINE and the Atom CPU can't run it) Let me know, thanks!

Hi all, Does any of you know if there is a legal rpm package of QtiPlot somewhere. Anybody uses it on openSuSe 12.x or successfully compiled it from source? Thanks, Albert

[opensuse] Intel Graphics
by michael norman 08 Apr '13

08 Apr '13

I am running 12 3 on a box with Intel GMA HD 3000 2000 on board graphics chip and KDE 4 10. I have two monitors attached and can set up dual screens using the kde settings. This does not affect other DE's such as xfce. Is there a way to set up the monitiors globally so that the setting is available to DE's other than KDE4 please ?

Will disable the custom firewall rule later to test and confirm. tks, -- (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

[opensuse] Latest updates caused problems?
by Basil Chupin 07 Apr '13

07 Apr '13

There were some updates [eg, KDE to 4.10.2] yesterday and today (my time) following which: 1. my Daily version (version 23.0a1) of Thunderbird no longer displays any messages (OK, I know that I am using Daily and not the 'standard' version so if it breaks I get to keep the pieces; I had to go back to a backup of .thunderbird which is several days old and use TB 17.05); 2. I now get an error message on boot - into 12.3 and 12.2 [as both have had the (?)same updates] - that something called "python script engine" is required but this is nowhere to be found; and 3. the "py" widget, which gets rid of the annoying "cashew" widget, doesn't get loaded because of the missing "python script engine". Is anyone else experiencing this sudden deteriotation of behaviour or know of how to overcome this problem?

by Greg Freemyer 06 Apr '13

All, I want to capture some video of my screen with the mouse moving for training/documentation purposes. Is there a tool for that? I saw camstudio recommended somewhere else, but I don't see it included.
