03 Apr '24

Yesterday, I finally got sound going on my Linux setup. I downloaded RealPlayer G2 and it worked beautifully. Today, RealPlayer run but no sound coming out. All other sound functions still work. I can still play my CD, have system sound BUT no sound when I run RealPlayer. /var/log/message said kernel: Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? but KDE sound still work. I have re-installed RealPlayer 3 times now, still no sound when I run the RealPlayer. Any help is appreciated.

Adding fonts?
by Tracer Bullet 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

Hi all, Reading some mails on the GIMP mail list, I ran across the procedure to install some more fonts for not only Gimp, but the system and StarOffice to use also. Well, I installed the fonts, went to the shell and issued the command xset fp+ <font directory> and then the rehash command and all fonts are there! Ok, that went well, but each time I restart the system, I have to do it all over again? Is there a way to make it permanent and read the new fonts like it does the ones the system installs or is that a no-no? end of line Tracer Shell commands: xset fp+ <new font directory> xset fp rehash -- ---KMail 1.2--- SuSE Linux v7.2--- Registered Linux User #225206 /tracerb(a)sprintmail.com/ *Magic Page Products* *Team Amiga* http://home.sprintmail.com/~tracerb

Hi: I just bought this printer, thinking it would work right out of the box. I'm running SUSE 9.3 with CUPS, and it does not seem to support this model. Anybody got this printer to work? Any pointers would help. Best regards. -- Alfredo Cole-Tuckler

Problem with procmail

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm having a problem with some mails handled by one particular rule in procmail - all the rest are being handled ok. The .procmailrc goes like this: VERBOSE=on LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log ... cut :0 * ^Received: from correo.foo.es { :0 * ^Received: from (ruebert.ieee.org|engine.ieee.org|hormel3.ieee.org|boldfish.ieee.org|aries3.…) $HOME/Mail/in_ieee :0 * ^FROM_DAEMON $HOME/Mail/in_daemon :0 $HOME/Mail/in_foo } The problem is that mail matching the "^Received" clause above goes to the "/var/spool/mail/cer" folder instead of the "$HOME/Mail/in_foo" that corresponds.

USB still broken in SuSE's 2.6.18 kernel
by Mr Banana 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

I have been trying to get a fairly simple memory card reader working with SuSE 10.1. The errors I get look like this: Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdb Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: Vendor: Microtec Model: CameraMate (DPCM Rev: 0100 Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Oct 24 17:04:12 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: device not accepting address 2, error -32 Oct 24 17:04:13 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Oct 24 17:04:13 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: device not accepting address 2, error -32 Oct 24 17:04:13 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Oct 24 17:04:13 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Oct 24 17:04:13 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Oct 24 17:04:14 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Oct 24 17:04:14 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: device descriptor read/64, error -32 Oct 24 17:04:14 koetsu kernel: usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 2 I have seen similar reports elsewhere and tried removing/inserting the various USB hci-hcd modules and playing with the old_scheme_first parameter but with no change in behaviour. I tested two different hardware configurations, both running the 2.6.16.21-0.25 based kernels, with no luck. Then I tried with the latest Knoppix 5.0 distribution, using a 2.6.17 based kernel, and got no errors! Thinking that the problem was fixed in a later kernel I downloaded all the 2.6.18.1-6 bits and pieces from the Factory but still it doesn't work. Arghh! This is the last thing stopping me chucking Windows off my parents PC. Actually it is already chucked and I need to get this back up and running pretty soon and I really, really want to keep SuSE as that is what I use on all my machines.

SUSE9.3 - SUSE Plugger problem with USB Serial port cable
by Bruce Samhaber 05 Dec '06

05 Dec '06

Hi, I am using a USB to Serial port cable. Initially when I start the computer and linux then insert the USB Serial port cable the device is set as /dev/ttyUSB0. If the USB Serial Port cable is removed then reinserted it becomes /dev/ttyUSB1. Each time the USB Port cable is removed then reinserted the device name is increased by one. It appears to me that upon removeal of the device that SUSE Plugger is no removeing the device from the device list. Has anyone seen this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this? Thanks, -- Bruce Samhaber Senior Hardware Design Consultant Tel: 613-724-5987 112 Kenora St. Fax: 613-724-5987 Ottawa, Ontario Cel: 613-297-6961 K1Y 3L1 mailto: bsamhaber(a)sympatico.ca http://www3.sympatico.ca/marypat/
