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.

Hello: I would like to watch video clips at the site of the Hungarian TV channel MTV.

[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

[opensuse] How to force default outgoing Thunderbird mail account
by Jim Cunning 03 May '13

03 May '13

I have multiple email accounts that I read in Thunderbird using its unified inbox feature. I am working to gradually eliminate a couple of accounts, and would like to force my replies to emails received in my old accounts to be sent using my new preferred account. I know how to set the default outgoing account in Thunderbird for new messages. Is there a way to force the use of a specific outgoing mail account when replying to messages received on different accounts?
