I have Google Earth installed on two computers. On both, whenever I try
to run a search, I get an error message "invalid HTTP request. I do not
see this problem on Windows. I'm running version 6.0.3.2197-0, which is
the latest, on openSUSE 12.3. This is a fairly recent problem, as it
has work properly in the past.
Any ideas?
tnx jk

I'm not at home, so I can't look up the details. The idea is as follows:
First, you configure the router to send the log to the computer. Many can
do that, but some can not. If yours can't, then this can not be done.
You have to detect if the router logs a certain message when it loses the
connection and reconnects, or if the IP changes. Some even write the new
IP to the log, which is fantastic.
Then, you configure the syslog daemon to accept those messages and write
them to a file. How to do that depends on which syslog daemon you have,
because openSUSE has set different ones by default on each release.
Next step is to make the syslog daemon detect a certain message pattern on
the log; this is normally quite easy. Typical actions are to save that
entry to a file or not to; but you can also trigger a call to an external
command: that's what we are looking for.
Well, the idea is precisely to trigger an script when the router sends
the message that it is recovering the connection... if the message
contains the IP, good; if not, a simple call to links to a certain web
page that answers with the IP, and some trickery with sed, and you have
the IP.
I can fill the details probably this Thursday.
And, in case this fails, have cron obtain the IP every... 8 hours? And at
boot.

Hello,
It's a long time I was out of openSUSE bussiness, but I hope to be
able to come back, at least a bit :-)
I'm setting up a new hosted server with openSUSE 13.3 and I uodate my
own doc here:
http://dodin.org/wiki/index.php?n=Doc.OpenSUSE-small-ThirdEdition
every time I build a new one I have more power (for this one I7
processor, 24Gb ram!) and try do do some better config.
Just now I try to have an xfce remote session. I could use VNC or
freenix, but I had in the past problems with this (I have to run
VirtualBox on the server and too many virtualization layers do not fit
well), so I would like now to use simpler way, that is X remote.
I connect to the server with "ssh -X -C root(a)xxxx.info". I can launch
yast2, xeyes, but if I try "startxfce4" I get only a partial session
(and lot of messages)
I get the initial mouse logo, and the taskbar, but no desktop and the
taskbar seems to reflect the local windows, not the server ones.
is it at all possible to export the complete xfce session? how?
thanks
jdd

Hello,
only pm-utils can run scripts after resuming. This is why I want the
system (openSUSE 12.3) to use pm-utils.
How can I do this?
I suspend from the KDE menu. How can I make KDE use pm-utils?

I have a spare user account on one machine which I later decided to
encrypt using the option in YaST's User and Group Management. I simply
selected 'Use Encrypted Home Directory', and allotted it 2000MB.
When upgrading to 12.3, I did so by wiping the root partition and
keeping /home intact. When I first logged into this spare account in
12.3, I thought things were as usual, then I noticed program settings
were reset to defaults, even though some other system settings and old
files were visible. I realised I'd not reinstated the encrypted home,
and what I was seeing was just the remnants of early files and settings
I'd configured before the encryption.
Just to complicate things, whilst still on 12.2 I'd changed the 'spare'
user ID from 1001 to 1010 and run a couple of commands to update all
files found on the system (and in /etc/passwd).
Now I'd like to get back into that encrypted volume since it holds a few
files I cannot otherwise retrieve. How can I do it? The files
'spare.img' and 'spare.key' still exist, but if I simply re-checked the
encryption box in YaST would it not try and create a new volume with a
different key, or would it merely read the original one? I believe these
two files are under user ID 1010 but the contents would I assume still
remain as 1001, which might make it tricky.
I am in the process of setting up a new machine and so I could create a
user account called 'spare' with user ID 1001, then copy the .img and
.key files over and update them to 1001. But I'm still not sure how to
import the encrypted volume.
Cheers,
Peter

I use Google's stable repo for google earth it is not openSUSE's repo.
As you stated you are using 7.1.1.1580 _(beta)_.
Please keep replies on list.

I tried kmail2 a few times. But each time some problem has undermined my confidence and I returned to kmail/kdepim3. As I recall I think the most recent issue was lack of search or slow search. I'm now running the 12.3 KDE3 kmail that is available in 12.3 kdepim3 package.
I did find converting to kmail2 is now fairly easy. I had kdepim3 kmail convert all mbox folders to maildir. I then moved the old dir to somewhere safe. After starting with a fresh kmail2, I imported the old folders. The only downside with this approach to conversion is that after importing all my folders I had to manually shift-click bunches of folders and mark all contents as read.
I don't want desktop nepomuk desktop indexing, I think this is why I'm not getting along with kmail2. As long as kmail/kdepim3 is provided I think I will just stick with that.

I have a bug that is so odd, I have no idea who to blame, or where to file the bug report:
Netshell:
If I sleep my laptop (suspend to ram, not to disk) and awaken it some time
later, dragging a window around is sluggish, the window will lag far behind
the cursor.
This will persist for as long as I care to wait.
If I press Ctrl+P (the shortcut to toggel desktop effects off, wait just about
10 seconds (you can tell when the change has taken effect by watching the KDE
taskbar), the press Ctrl+P again to turn the bling back on, everything is
back to normal and the speed and responsiveness is virtually indistinguishable
with effects on vs off.
This happens ONLY after awakening from suspend to ram.
---The environment:
OpenSuse 12.3 with the following upgrades:
Xorg from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_12.3/
KDE4.11 from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Releas:/411/openSUSE_12.3/
Core 2 Duo machine with a ATI Radeon Mobility x1400 card supported by the
community drivers.
