[opensuse] HP PSP
Hello, Having to buy a new HP printer/scanner/copier I see an offer for an HP 2575 with HP wifi kit. I have two questions: * I have already an HP PSP 750. I _can't_ both print and scan (openSUSE 10.1). When I try to configure the scanner with Yast, I have a warning of compatibility problem. After that, no printer works anymore (scanner works). Is this because my printer is obsolete (and the driver never updated) or is this normal for HP? * will the HP wifi kit (both usb emitter and ethernet receiver, connected on the ethernet printer port) works with suse? thanks jdd NB: the (french) offer is here: http://shopping.kelkoo.fr/ssc-100052213-hp-psc-2575-wifi.html -- http://www.dodin.net http://gourmandises.orangeblog.fr/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The update seems to have pranged a couple of other plugins (lightening 0.5 + funambol) seems to generate a segment fault. Installing 0.5 after removing funambol and 0.31 seems to be OK.

Re: [opensuse] Formatting error (-1012) when installing Opensuse 10.2
Thanks for your suggestion. I actually got it working so below is a summary of what I did for the benefit of anyone else having the same problem: 1. Deleted any of the partitions created for/by linux (leaving the Windows main partition, the recovery partition and the dell utility partition) using the windows disk manager 2. Created the two required partitions for Linux again using windows. This time I explicitly went back into the settings for each of the new partitions and set them to be "Extended". Yast is now happy to proceed with formatting. According to the posting below from the Windows Vista blog, the disk manager is supposed to just do the *right thing* when it comes to partitions being either primary or extended. I don't want to spend too much time troubleshooting this but it seems to have got a bit confused on this occasion. http://blogs.technet.com/filecab/archive/2006/10/16/how-to-create-an-extended-partition-in-windows-vista.aspx This would also seem to indicate a bug in Yast since the initial install was done by accepting all of the defaults with a vanilla partition table. Anyway, hopefully the above posting will prove useful to someone. -phil On Monday 30 July 2007 17:08, Kenneth Aar wrote: > Philip Bradley wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I'm trying to install Opesuse 10.2 on a Dell D620 with an 80GB SATA > > drive (with 2GB RAM).

I had a further problem in that update from lightning 0.31 to 0.5 caused Thunderbird to segment fault (apparently one should not upgrade via Tools->Extensions but backup calendars, uninstall old version, then install new version then restore calendars, there is a further problem with interaction with the funambol SyncML extension and lighting 0.5 which also causes a segment fault, I need investigate this further later). Then I fiddled around with lightning 0.5 to check functions worked - and it would not display new entry information Suddenly, and for no apparent reason lightning started accepting changes and lo and behold ReplyToList started to work as before ... go figure...

Re: [opensuse] has anybody installed AWN svn on his openSUSE? (GNOME:STABLE maintainers please read)
i think i found out what the problem is, after a small search on webpin, it turned out that the current libtool package is not compatible with gtk2-devel-2.10.11 in the GNOME:STABLE repo, because it stores the lib files in /usr/lib/ instead of 10.2's default /opt/gnome/lib. i was able to fix the missing "libgtk-x11-2.0.la" dependency problem by downgrading to gtk2-devel-2.10.6 (which is compatible) although i knew it'll probably screw up my gdm again once i restart, but that didn't fix the problem as it seems that all the upgraded packages from GNOME:STABLE did the same thing. i thought i'd get the factory libtool package, but this one is dependent on an even newer version of gtk2, which, as suspected, screwed up my gdm (AGAIN!) ok, here's what has to be done, either someone makes a compatible version of libtool for GNOME:STABLE, or make ALL gtk2 packages in this repo store their libs back into opt/gnome/. however i found this howto for AWN on openSUSE http://www.michaeldolan.com/581 it should work if it wasn't for the problem i just explained - anybody who is not using GNOME:STABLE will do fine, just remember that the svn source has changed and you'll have grab it with bazar now instead of svn. go to the official site for more information. good luck =) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Constant
>From memory (I'm working on a Vista machine at the moment, I'm afraid,
sorry!) Start YAST->Network Card->Choose 'Traditional
Method'->Edit->Next->Hostname and Name Server. Check if the tick
box 'change hostname via DHCP' is ticked. If so, untick it and restart
your system.
I think the DHCP server you have is returning invalid data for the
hostname, but your system is accepting it anyway and returning to a
default ('reached').
Give it a go and let us know.

It *is* very easy: - Copy the awn tarball and the specfile from that web page to /usr/src/packages/SOURCES - Change to that directory and call 'rpmbuild -ba'. This will build both the binary and the source rpm and will place the resulting binary package somewhere below /usr/src/packages/RPMS/ and the .src.rpm in /usr/src/packages/SRPMS. That way you get a rpm package compiled specifically for your system that, when installed, is registered with the system and easily removable.

[opensuse] SN9C201 Sonic Webcam Drivers
Hi all, I own a Sonic (Microdia) webcam that is not supported right now, but surfing the net I found the drivers that make the webcam works in Ubuntu Feisty. The driver is not opensource and it is just compiled for Ubuntu (a .deb package). Is there any way to install debian packages in openSUSE? openSUSE 10.2 Regards, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [opensuse] Resized Partition Issue SOLVED!
Thanks for your reply, I used the GParted Live CD to repair the filesystem and my OS recognizes all the partition size...

Re: [opensuse] Which DELL Notebooks work 100% with OpenSUSE 10.2?
(BL) - Before Linux Every one who has replied is quite correct in my experience in that the suggestions lead towards very new components. The best thought I have read was to think about purchasing a Dell unit that can be shipped in a Linux Distro. This has not always been the case and If you were thinking about purchasing a desktop I would exercise great caution. 2 years ago, in an effort to minimise costs, I ordered 4 New Desktops. 4 x Dimension 4700 which all ran Windows XP SP2 without issue until 1 of the units required a format and reinstall. After loading XP, the network card driver was absent and the video had issues maintaining a resolution greater than 800x600 and I called Dell. I was told to I would have to load various drivers from the utils CD or get the drivers from the Internet. Without the NIC being identified and if I had lost the Utils CD I would have been stuffed If I was a home user with only 1 PC. >From the CD the following drivers needed to be loaded in this order. 1 x Chipset driver 1 x Video driver 1 x Audio Driver 1 x NIC driver Dell DO NOT publish their driver specific drivers to MS so there are never any drivers obtained from MS online update unlike just about every other major brand. The dell website is huge, carrying with it every driver that is required and invariable they are NOT signed by MS. You can see chat I mean by looking at http://support.ap.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=au&l=en&s=gen&ServiceTag=&SystemID=DIM_P4_4700&os=WW1&osl=en&catid=&impid= This is all done to cut costs. I suppose the most important issue I have gained when any other business asks my opinion is to check the dell website for the driver support which may either delight you or put you off.

Or something else? I used Konq to look at the config files in /etc/openldap and hit the print icon, if I check the print job status it says 'error' and does not print, but printing does work on other things normally.
