How would yast know if you adjust or not for daylight savings in Windows? There is no way to do that, except perhaps by reading the regedit data...

You would think so. But our company is very Windows-centric (except my little group of Linux weirdos). Being a company of over 10000, Windows installs are done automatically via a centralized server. And, that server refuses to work with VMs. It used to. But when they went with Windows 7, they did a few odd things. Part of this is related to tighter license control by Microsoft. The company will not pay for a different install media of Windows 7. And I am sure not going to pay for it myself. I spend no money on Windows if I don't need to! They say I should just give in and use Windows. I suspect you know the drill. So, I run windows on my laptop using the Windows 7 partition that came with it. I also have openSUSE on this laptop, as it is my preferred environment. If I could cannibalize the Windows partition so it could be run in, say, VirtualBox, I would be very happy.

Just a thought. I also have a need to run MS windows for a couple of apps. What I did was get a copy of the install media from MS (possible if you have a license). I then used that to install in VB using the license code from the sticker on the laptop.

Ok, how do you do that? Do you just call Microsoft and ask them to mail the install media to you and tell them your license code number over the phone? Or is there a way to do that over the internet?

The installer is so clever, therefore installs a bunch of xorg-x11-video-YouNameit for an intel video driver, sure i need the nv, radeonhd, and all the other common even windows does not install hardware related software when your machine does not have it. when you remove it or taboo it then becomes but you are breaking xorg-x11-drivers-video game.

Actually it's just a dumb as most distros, defaulting to mounting to windows_[C,D...Z] PC DOS 8.3 partitions (0x01, 0x06, 0x0b, 0x0c) VFAT instead of MSDOS, and OS/2 HPFS (0x07) partitions as NTFS/ExFAT on systems with no version of Windows installed anywhere, which is even dumber when a type 0x0a primary partition is active on BIOS HD0. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

This post is also addressed to Carlos..... Let me put it this way re what I said earlier. In the past I always installed Windows (XP) and always set it to auto adjust for daylight saving time. I would then install openSUSE and found that the UTC box in the Locale setting was UNCHECKED. Earlier this week, I reformatted my HDDs, and installed XP on the second HDD - but this time I deliberately did not configure XP to auto adjust for daylight saving time. I then did a new, clean, install of 12.2 Gold (well, actually Build #167 which was then made Gold). The Locale menu had UTC TICKED. Perhaps this was accidental, perhaps not or my memory is totally shot; but I don't intend to repeat the exercise to prove which it was :-) .

Also, if you install as a virtual guest in vmware you got the same warning. You need "local time" in that situation, and yes, there is a bugzilla. I don't know if the issue has been corrected in the final version, can't check it. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I've been installing a few of those from factory, but I might not have noticed that the mailserver had changed. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (17.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Does flash work in your browsers? I've tried opera, Firefox, Chrome to view BBC iPlayer but the plugin just crashes on 12.2. I've tried googling the error but the only bits of news i can find is that it might be due to it trying to use hardware acceleration or its a sh*t release from Adobe I've installed it on an old laptop with a Radeon (which didn;t work at all on 12.1 so progress is good) regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

At one point in the near past adobe changed the compile options of the linux flash player and enabled CPU architecture specific SSE2 flags which caused the flash player to barf on some older AMD hardware, I don't know if this is still the case. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks, i didn't know that. Do you know if there is a way to downgrade Flash using, for example, an 11.4 repo? regards Ian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

As per my other reply in the list to a related post, if all else fails you could try using the official Chrome browser from google. As far as I know it has baked in flash player which has ongoing official support by Google under an agreement with Adobe. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
