[opensuse] openSUSE wallpapers vote proposal
hi all ! It's too bad that openSUSE 10.2 shipped with poor wallpapers, and the default one was not beautyful. In the past, SUSE Linux 9.1 and 10.0 shipped with BEAUTYFUL wallpapers, installed by default ! This is important since this thing is the first one a user seems on his brand new desktop, and wallpaper is one of the criterions that make a man happy or unhappy about his new desktop, and I'm really unhappy due to the sorry state of SUSE wallpapers recently. So, to fix the sorry state of 10.2 wallpaper and make sure it doesn't happens again in 10.3, I propose: 1. automatically package and install, by default, top 10 highest-rated wallpapers from kde-look.org on each openSUSE release. 2. the default wallpaper, I think should be chosen democratically, by votes. 3. kde-look.org wallpapers can be SUSEfied, by adding a SUSE lizard at the top-right corner, like we did in 9.1 and 10.0 releases. 4. All previous successfull wallpapers should NOT get dropped, but be supplied with newer openSUSE releases, such as default 9.1 and 10.0 wallpapers. What do you think of it ? ..Of course we must filter some off-topic or offensive wallpapers, prior to voting. P.S. I vote for NIGHT wallpaper for 10.3: :) http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/NIGHT?content=25331 -- -Alexey Eremenko Technologov -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also, maybe some of the wallpapers from the Xfce Art site and the GNOME wallpaper sites too - not all of us care for Crystal SVG :) 2. the default wallpaper, I think should be chosen democratically, by votes.

[opensuse] RE: Ports used for Samba service
I have set up a samba server all o.k. I cannot even view any workgroup. This is a result of internal security which I control.

As I cannot see the workgroup I have obviously missed some other dependant Ports to Samba services. Can anyone tell me which Ports are required to be open. This has nothing to do the the PC firewall which is correctly displaying 'samba server' on the PC that is running the process and I have tried turning off all PC firewalls on the PC's which I want samba services to be available.

Can you respond on the bugzilla feature-request to the bad-guys ? please. link: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=263606 I add this on bugzilla: I think this debate is not well done. What users want is to have openSUSE as dvd's on they desk, not on the servers. Make a _bootable_ dvd is sometime difficult, so it's good to have an iso for this one, but for the others any ftp/makedvd system should be good. So what we need is _not_ new isos, but a way to identify successive dvd's content (any number). There are several system to do so. The simpler (for the user) should to have each dvd content to be in a separate folder, but a simple list on a file could be enough if better for you: simply identify the files as dvd1, dvd2... and any ftp app could dl the good one. in such a way, even independant dealer could provide dvd sets (as they already do for the cd's and the dvd), but in a more standardised way -- http://www.dodin.net Lucien Dodin, inventeur http://lucien.dodin.net/index.shtml -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The samba Howtos do give some basic configurations for simple access (just cut and paste).

I would certainly not do that.. first, on a hard drive, the boot sector contains a physical address of the stage1 boot code. The boot process then loads stage1. Stage1 then loads the specific stage1 for the file system (eg. e2fs_stage1_5) which then loads /boot/grub/stage2. stage2 then reads the menu.lst (or grub.conf) and presents the boot menu etc. Since pendrives are normally FAT devices, the boot should work, but I would not recommend it.

When you installed the MS SFU NFS client how did you answer the Username Mapping Server question? I totally do not understand username mapping server and I am not sure if I need it. As the name implies, the username mapping server is used to match Windows user ID's to your *nix user ID (i.e. SID to UID matching). Without it, your Windows client will not be able to provide the NFS server with the proper UID. If your Windows box gets it's username from a Domain, you'll need to install the mapping server on one of your DCs and then point your workstation to the correct server. If it is a stand-alone machine (or if your using a local account), you'll need to install the username mapping locally. As I am setting up read-only NFS exports applying restriction only on IP addresses, I just think perhaps I can forget all these authentication and authorization things. However so far I could not successfully connect SFU to ANY nfs server in my office, I tried opensuse, gentoo Linux and FreeBSD. SFU always ends up with a message from SFU: Network Path Not Found. I tried these to get around the error message, all failed: How are you trying to connect to the NFS server? For me, I just right click on My Network Places and select Map Network Drive. Then I enter the path (i.e. \\servername\share_name). When you click OK, you should get a NFS Login Successful dialog box that summarizes your current login credentials and asks if you'd like to accept the current login or change your login settings. Once finished, you should have a drive mapped to your NFS share. 1. use IP address in /etc/exports rather then hostname or wildcard 2. supply no_auth_nlm to Linux's /etc/exports (FreeBSD I cannot find this parameter); 3. switch between TCP and UDP on SFU; The last thing I didn't try is to set up reverse DNS lookup, which is impossible because the whole campus have been running without reverse DNS for a lot of years and it will not be changed because I want it to change. I'll admit that I've always use reverse DNS, but if you enter the machines into the hosts file you should get the same effect.

Hi all. I'm trying to build a custom install CD, but I just can't get the resulting disk to boot. I want to be able to put a disk in a system, boot the system and come back to a fully configured machine. This is what I'm doing: I'm using k3b to build an image file from the original install media. Then I'm using kiso to extract the files from the image into a directory. In hind sight, I guess I could have simply copied the files, but what can I say? Then I'm making the changes to the files that I need to make. I use kiso to package the resulting files into an iso image which I burn with k3b. Before burning, I use kiso to add a boot image to the iso. The resulting CD won't boot. I'm getting my isolinux.bin file from http://syslinux.zytor.com/iso.php and renaming it to isolinux.img so that kiso will recognize it. I'm sure this is where I'm messed up, so what is the RIGHT way to do this? TIA, Mike. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In case of kde, I believe all you need to do is to logout and it will save the session, so it wont show again... But if you are serious in business, why not simply remove it all together, as its simply a waste of resources in a small home network situtation,as finally even the opensuse developers realized that and removed from the 10.3 default installation. You can do that too: #rpm -e libzypp-zmd-backend zmd zen-updater suse-Register rug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [opensuse] How do I disable beagle indexing deamon!

Partial answer: to disable beagle indexing systemwide: from root edit the file :/opt/kde3/share/autostart/beagled.desktop change the line: X-KDE-autostart-condition=kerryrc:Beagle:AutoStart:true to: X-KDE-autostart-condition=kerryrc:Beagle:AutoStart:false beagle indexing does not start anymore for all users!

Yes. Copy the old .config file to the new kernel source directory, then do 'make oldconfig'. It will use the old settings where it can and ask you about any new ones. No need to copy the file, just use make cloneconfig instead (without the quotes of course). Then you can rune make menuconfig to make changes or run make prepare_all. Ok, guys, What am I doing wrong?

You need mysql running as well in order to run the backend.. I'm running MythTV on my 10.2 system. Works great. Very easy to install and set up from the Packman repository(mythtv + mysql). Do a little reading on the MythTV site for what you need to do to configure the backend - its not hard if you follow the directions. I've got my MythTV running in a separate KDE session which is displayed on my TV... and love it. Very easy to use, and has some rather nifty features like cataloging all your video, and linking it up with the IMDB cover art and descriptions.
