How do you use it? My experience is that YaST does not provide feedback 
properly, so Building repository sits there at 0%. However, after a while, 
this gets moving.

The new libzypp is optimized for reading, so building a cache for a new huge 
repo like Factory takes some time.

Can you check /var/log/YaST2/y2log? Are there new entries appearing?

[opensuse-factory] Yast Meta Package Handler (ymp)

2007-08-01 Thread Dominique Leuenberger
Hi,

I have a question / suggestion for the ymp handler (thank Benji btw!)

I think it could be of big advantage if the ymp file could contain sort of 
'variables' inside, like at least the installes openSUSE Version.
Just imagine the following tree (in fact, I have it like this):

/repos/suse
  /10.0
  /10.1
  /10.2
  /10.3

It would now be VERY handy for all users, if I could just offer one YMP, that 
contains a link to the repo and the handler replaces the $SUSEVER by the 
specific number. Of course, for the moment as only 10.3 will support it, it's 
not THAT interesting yet, but for sure this will come. There would be no need 
to offer a ymp per possible suse version I offer packages for. 

What is everybody's opinion about that? Doable? Drawbacks?

Thanks for comments,

Dominique

The DMAPI patches are in the SLES and SLED releases, not in the openSUSE
releases, sorry.  If you need to migrate to a newer release, please use
those products.

The patches are just too big for us to handle in the openSUSE kernels,
especially as SGI is the ones supporting and handling them, not us.

Hope this helps explain things,

[opensuse-factory] Error in FACTORY repository?

2007-08-01 Thread Robert Kaiser

Hi,

Being quite happy with FACTORY (even happier than with 10.2), I just
tried to update to the newest packages.

I have a SUSE_Factory.repo pointing to
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/
for that, but today, both the FACTORY Update and Software Management
modules of YaST just stopped at about 40-45% of refreshing that
repository without a useful error message.

Doing a zypper ref in the konsole then gave a better error message,
which is as follows:

-
Refreshing SUSE_Factory
Error reading repository 'SUSE_Factory':
Unsupported kind of Filesystem Capability'filesystem(minix)-64bit'
Skipping repository 'SUSE_Factory' because of the above error.
-

Of course, this makes me unable to update to a current FACTORY, so it
would be nice to see it fixed ;-)

Greetings,

Robert Kaiser

You need to resize the filesystem as well, not only the partition.

Re: [opensuse] Displaying ink levels on a printer

Hello,

 It would be nice if Lexmark had the same support that hp and epson pinters 
 have, that would make things a lot easier.

The Lexmark inkjet division simply does not want to support Linux.
Have a look at
http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/Database/LinuxSupportByPrinterVendors

To make things easy, I recommend to wait until you would need to
buy new ink and then buy a printer which is supported by Linux, see
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Purchasing_a_Printer_and_Compatibility

Using a proper printer will solve the driver problem once and for all,
as it will eliminate the need for installing and configuring proprietary
driver software and obtaining driver updates required for new developments
in the print system.

If you are looking for a well supported all-in-one device, see
http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/index.html
and for more details what exactly is supported, see

i am using a dell precision m90 notebook.

best chances are if you choose a notebook with centrino duo chipset

Re: [opensuse] Dell Precision workstation + nVidia Quadro FX 4600 + 3007WFP == No Xgl?

 Anyway, I have a shiny new Precision 490 workstation with the nVidia Quadro 
 FX 4600 video adapter, and the 3007WFP (30 wide format) panel here. OpenSuSE

 resolution to 2560x1600x24-bit colour, no problem.
 
 But, I can't enable Xgl / Desktop effects. :-(

disable xgl if you can use native nvidia.

 So, two problems. First would be getting the Quadro FX 4600 to be a supported 
 card. Who do I contact about getting it added to the list? I'd be happy to 
 test or try whatever is needed, since I'm assuming the developpers can't own 
 every possible video board out there.

forget about that.
you don't need xgl.

install xorg72 from
http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/opensuse/repositories/xorg72/openSUSE_10.2/

install latest beryl from
http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/opensuse/repositories/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_10.2/

and then do it this way:
http://en.opensuse.org/Beryl#Beryl_with_nVidia_drivers_-_no_Xgl.2FAIGLX
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=77030


 Second, is there a way to get Xgl to take higher resolutions? I really don't 
 want to drop down to only 1920x1200 here.

when you removed xgl none of these questions are relevant any more.
with native nvidia everything works.

 Pls, help me correctly create OpenSuse 10.2 updates repo on the server for 
 local network.
 1. What programs should I use for this?
 2. And how to sync it in the future with public updates server?


1. Create a rsync cronjob. Something like that:

I'm using a user rights to do so.

40 4 * * * rsync -tvrl --exclude=rpm/ppc/ --exclude=rpm/src/
--exclude=rpm/x86_64/ --delete ftp.gwdg.de::pub/suse/update/10.2/
/srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ #repo: update

As u can see I rsync the files into that local folder
/srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/

2. Then create a createrepo cronjob. Something like this:

5 5 * * * createrepo /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/ #createrepo

3. Add the local folder to Yast. In my case it's /srv/ftp/repos/10.2/update/

You need rsync and createrepo installed.

Enjoy

NB:
- with rsync you can query the all available folders of the particular
server. check the rsync man pages.
- using webmin will easy the cron handling.

Boot from your opensuse install disk. Select 'installation' (you will
not do a complete install). Select your language, accept license. At
that point select 'other optionsrepair installed system'. Then select
'expert options', then 'install new boot loader'. That should do it.

 If your scanner is supported, then everything you need is available. Here's a

 #!/bin/sh

 echo Scanning...
 scanimage --resolution 300  page.pnm

 convert -density 300 page.pnm page.ps
 
 echo Converting to PDF...
 ps2pdf page.ps $1.pdf
 
 # Cleanup...
 rm page.pnm page.ps
 
 echo Done!
 
 
 convert is part of the Image Magic package. ps2pdf is, if I recall correctly, 
 part of the Ghostscript package. I don't recall where scanimage comes from, 
 but you probably already have it.
 
 If you have multiple pages you want to end up in one PDF file, scan them as 
 page1.pnm, page2.pnm, page3.pnm, etc. until you have them all, then use 
 'convert -density 300 page*.pnm page.ps' to build the intermediate PostScript 
 file out of them.
 
 


Ok, so the answer is to start looking into Kommander and roll my own.
Thanks for the script.

Writer or Kooka or xSane cant do multi page scan - well the last time I
checked.
And Kooka saves/prints horribly to PDF.

Hi,
Take a look to see if the file cups-pdf is available on SuSE's 
mirrors.  If not you may want to compile it yourself.  It's very handy, 
in that it lets you create a Virtual pdf printer you can just select 
from any printer dialog and print the document directly to a good pdf 
file.  Acroread can read the file most excellent as do the other pdf 
readers.

When setting it up, you want to choose Postscript as the brand  model 
of printer.  Makes printing to pdf very handy  easy from your 
programs.

have fun,
Lee

Hi,

I use without any trouble a Dell Latitude D810 (pentium M, ATI gfx card) and a 
Dell inspiron 6400 (core 2 duo, Nvidia Geforce 7300 Go)  with opensuse 10.2.
The above hardware with the intel GMA gfx card should work with no problem and 
will be cheaper (possibly around 750 euros).

Whenever you don't know where to download whatever it is, you first try

http://benjiweber.co.uk:8080/webpin

to see if it is somewhere provided by one of the Suse repositories.

In this case you'll find that it is provided by the packman repository (or one
of its mirrors) and that it is part of the mad package,  mad 0.1.15.1b to be
precise. The exact url is left as an exercise to the reader. :-)

If webpin doesn't turn up anything, Suse doesn't provide it, but then there
still is google...

 Hi all,

This is a *tough* question to answer simply because the notebook
landscape changes so drastically.

Three years ago, I bought a Dell 600m that worked mostly with SUSE 9.3
and 100% with SUSE 10.2. However, that notebook is completely
outdated.

I recently bought a HP notebook (nw9440) that also works 90% with SUSE
10.2. (The integrated SD/MMC/XM/XD card reader only seems to read the
SD card.)

I doubt you'll find a notebook that is 100% feature complete in Linux.
The reason simply being that the small OEM manufacturers of the
various components don't give a hoot about Linux or MacOS and only
write their drivers for Windows Vista or XP.

HOWEVER - you should be happy with pretty much any notebook you get.
I've loaded SUSE on half a dozen notebooks and been mostly satisfied.

HTH!!

Hi Marcus

 Why is createrepo necessary here? The update directory already has valid repo
 information.

Right, the the update repo won't even probably work with createrepo.
It's so because of the .info files included and needed for patching
diffs. Am I right? Thus createrepo will work with any repo but the
update one. At least I didn't manage to create those .info files all by
myself´ and w/o them I couldn't apply patches.

For any other repo, one can use the repodata folders from servers but I
found out that there is sometimes a substantial time lag between
uploading rpm's and updating repodata folders. Thus I create my own
repodata's.

Re: [opensuse] Which DELL Notebooks work 100% with OpenSUSE 10.2?

2007-08-01 Thread Ciro Iriarte
2007/8/1, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 Hi all,

 which DELL Notebooks work 100% with OpenSUSE 10.2? I know DELL has some
 it even delivers without OS (eg. Latitude D830 at the same price with or
 without OS), but they are of the upper price range. I need a notebook
 below 1000$ (about 750 Euro) that can be used for everything, but no
 need for demanding software like games that use extensive graphics.

 Anyone who uses DELL notebooks with OpenSUSE 10.2 successfully?

 :-)
 Al


Hi, I'm running Opensuse 10.2 on a Dell Inspiron 6400, just some notes:

- Intel 945GM Graphic Card: Works fine, but couldn't make the S-Video
output work.
- Ricoh Memory Card reader: It's detected but didn't use it yet.
- Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG: Works  out of the box
-- At the office works flawlessly with WPA with high and light load (D-Link AP)
-- At home I have many troubles with a Linksys WRT54GX4 AP and WPA, it
drops the connection when there's high load (many TKIP: ICV error
detected messages with light load too). A windows laptop with the
same card works fine only after updating to the last driver, maybe
with the latest module for linux it works better.
- Modem (don't know the make/model): Works with linuxant (comercial driver)
- Firewire: Didn't try it yet

Re: [opensuse] Sound problems on Presario SR5110NX with nVidia 6150 card - SOLVED

 I can't get a friend's new computer's sound to work.  I've scoured the
 web looking for answers and have found quite a few hits with the same
 problem and lots of things to try, but little helpful in the way of
 replies.  I've loaded SuSE 10.2 64 on the box, and it doesn't detect any
 sound cards during installation.

 Has anyone else run into this, hopefully with a fix?

 TIA,

 Jim
   
Most of the websites I looked at had it either wrong or a pay-for
solution.  Then I found a little blurb about using the latest alsa
driver.  The latest on their website was only a minor version above the
SuSE supplied one, but I d/l'd it and it worked!!  It properly detected
my friend's card with no more trouble.  So much for the ton of paper I
took with me saying that it would only work with pay-for solutions, like
OSS.

Jumping up and down for joy,

Whenever you don't know where to download whatever it is, you first try

http://benjiweber.co.uk:8080/webpin

to see if it is somewhere provided by one of the Suse repositories.

In this case you'll find that it is provided by the packman repository (or one
of its mirrors) and that it is part of the mad package,  mad 0.1.15.1b to be
precise. The exact url is left as an exercise to the reader. :-)

If webpin doesn't turn up anything, Suse doesn't provide it, but then there
still is google...

Marvellous!!

Thanks,

[opensuse] SysAdmin guide

2007-08-01 Thread Daniel Antonio Peraza Cedrez
Hi, I need to learn some things about Samba, NIS, OpenLDAP, and all
that stuff. Could someone give me an advice to find a good quick start
guide?.I need to set up an authentication server with some kind of
network filesystem or protocol such as NFS, or OpenLDAP. It has to
work for dual  booting systems with Windows/Linux and has to be able
of managing printers. Also, if there is any way to do this
automatically with some kind of autoyast system, I would like that to
be indicated.

I am almost new on this. I would like to request some help from an

 I did an update from 9.0 to 10.2 and all went well. I have an application

 on a virtual terminal (/dev/tty2). It has a command line prompt in which the 
 last
 char sent to it is a ^] (0x1d). (Why isn't relevant) This char was never 
 actually displayed. 
 It now displays a char something like * for this char. 
 
 On 9.0 the char was not displayed. A fresh install of 10.2 and the char is 
 not displayed. 
 In a konsole terminal session the char is not displayed. Only in a virtual 
 terminal is it
 displayed. (tty1 - tty12)
 
 Instead of a fresh install I thought someone might know the easy answer to 
 making 
 the char not displayable.
 
 Thanks in advance
 Mark 

Answering my own post: 

If I execute /bin/unicode_start (from the kbd package) in that virtual 
terminal first, the problem is gone.

Kai,

lsof is nice, but if you want to kill all the apps using your
thumbdrive, check out fuser -m -k /mnt-point as well.

Note that this is much more dangerous, so treat with care.

Daniel,

For an LDAP server I would highly recommend SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. The 
extra modules under Yast -- Network Services -- LDAP Server, and the 
connections within Yast to user/group and Samba modules can be very helpful 
to someone unfamiliar with all the interconnected settings that need to be in 
place. Having said that, one must still have an understanding of the various 
server functions in order to correctly configure the modules.

 I would try XSane/Kooka then save as PDF. IIRC, that works fine.
 
 I use xsane to scan multiple pages into 1 pdf doc. Works slick.

At what resolution? I tried to do this at 150 dpi and the pdf's came out next to

I have added to your command some --exclude options to have only i586

some questions how to optimize download:
1. is it necessary to download all *.info *.delta.rpm *patch.rpm files,
are any advantages using them?
2. in repo there are several versions of the same program, is it
possible to download only the latest version?

Re: [opensuse] Resized Partition Issue

I used Partition Magic to resize the partition, it is suppossed that the
filesystem would be resized to but it didn't. At the begining my
partition (non-bootable) was 68GB and i used the free space in my hard
disk to resize the ext3 partition to 100GB, after that I run fsck to
repair anything in my new resized partition. But in My computer the size
remains 68GB but it recognizes that the partition is a 100GB one, the
system type is ext3.

 and awn are running -- really great, thanks for such a great work :-)

 which is quite depressing, can somebody can help?

 i might add it to the wiki if requested

Why not just install the one from the GURU repository?

because the SVN is far more advanced, search google for screenshots

 You asked where to find it, and you have found it.  It's on your
 install media.

 *** rpm info

 Name : libgnomecanvas Relocations: (not relocatable)
 Version : 2.12.0 Vendor: SUSE LINUX Products GmbH
 


 you can use yast2, search for libgnomecanvas and install it, or use
 the install disk, find the rpm, libgnomecanvas-2.(something, I have a
 newer version).rpm and
 from the cl:  rpm -Uvh /path/to/libgnomecanvas-Some.Version.rpm

   
Maybe my first post was not clear; it is installed off of the install
media but it is version 2.12 and i need 2.14.

  What resizing method you have used?
  Give us few steps how you did it.
  What file system type is reported in My Computer?
 I used Partition Magic to resize the partition, it is suppossed that the
 filesystem would be resized to but it didn't. At the begining my
 partition (non-bootable) was 68GB and i used the free space in my hard
 disk to resize the ext3 partition to 100GB, after that I run fsck to
 repair anything in my new resized partition. But in My computer the size
 remains 68GB but it recognizes that the partition is a 100GB one, the
 system type is ext3.

Hi Fernando,

As Sunny said you have to resize file system too and instead of Partition 
Magic I would use as root:
 # yast2 disk
it will start GUI. This is the same as:
 YaST Control Center -- System -- Partitioner

Google on resize ext3 partition:
http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/resizing-ext3-partitions-with-parted

Re: [opensuse] Scanner operation broken in opensuse 10.2

 Hello,

   A few months ago, I used my HP Scanjet 5300C on Suse 10.2 with no
   problems. Now, it is a hit or miss process, mostly miss.
 
 What did you do in between?

Ran Yast online update
 
  
   I go to Yast, Hardware, Scanner, the scanner was listed using the
   avision driver. I do a test, the test passes.
 
 Does it pass the test also several times?

Yes
 
 
   Go to OpenOffice Draw, Insert picture, from scanner,then select scanner.
   No scanner shows up.
   
   Go to Kooka, it also does not find the scanner. Try Xsane, takes about
   10 minutes to get open, but also cannot find the scanner.
 
 Does it work as root but not as normal user?
 If yes, it is perhaps only a permission problem?

Seems to work at user with Kooka when it does work.
 
 
   Kooka did work one time after going to yast and running a test on the
   scanner, but then no more. 
 
 This doesn't look like a permission problem.
 
 
   Nothing shows up in the system log other than where yast installed it
   when I edited the scanner setup with no changes.
 
 See Trouble-Shooting (Debugging) at
 http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_Scanners_from_SUSE_LINUX_9.2
 
 
   Apparently, one of the upgrades changed something the scanning system
   does not like.
 
 What exactly is one of the upgrades?

Yast Online Update
 
 
   System is 64-bit AMD athlon 3200+ with 2 gig of ram.
 ...
  Tried this again tonight, did get something different. Kooka found
  scanner, but prescan did not work. Xsane comes up with an error that
  HewlettPackard:Scanjet5300.drc is not a device-rc-file!!!
 
 All the above looks strange.
 
 In particular when stuff sometimes works and sometimes fails
 it is likely a hardware-related problem. Not necessarily broken
 hardware but perhaps a low-level software problem e.g. kernel,
 USB system or SCSI system, whatever other low-level software
 which might be triggered by unstable working hardware.
 See for example USB Cable Connection and Additional USB Hubs at
 http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_Scanners_from_SUSE_LINUX_9.2

I did an uninstall and re-install with no improvement. Also tried the
udate from Smart repository, that was even worse. It removed sane and
had sane backend and sane front end and yast did not approve of that at
all. Will try tonight and upgrade again but also upgrade the
yast-scanner module and see what happens.

  Couuld not find any info on this file. Is this the problem? If so, where
  does it come from? File is there in proper path, but it is 0 bytes long.
 
 Not from any rpm from the distro.

Found out this is probably the file in /var/lib/sane directory. It was 0
bytes, but when I opened it, and saved it, it was 2.7 KB. Ended up
deleting it and it was recreated by Yast and was 4.5 KB.
