 Yes. Factory on x86_64 is broken - I'm still counting how many use it. So

[opensuse-factory] why do factory-oss and factory-non-oss conflict?

2007-08-02 Thread Andreas Vetter
Hi,

I'm just trying to install factory (from NFS) with factory-non-oss as 
add-on. When going to the software selection, yast says:
opensuse conflicts with factory-extra.

Is this something fundamental or is it because my factory snapshots (oss 
and non-oss) are not in sync?

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

 This is a bug only on x86-64 - and fixed.  After the next sync it should
 be fine again,

 Nice, thanks.
 I'm seeing this error on an i686 installation, FYI.

 BTW, is there any way to get notified when a sync has happened?

Not that I'm aware of right now :-(

[opensuse-factory] No ftp-Installation over local Network

2007-08-02 Thread Neotron
Hi,

I wanted to install openSUSE 10.3-Alpha7 from my local FTP/NFS-Server

So i have to type in the IP-adress of the FTP/NFS-Server but it is not 
accepted by the install-program.
The problem appears while Preparation - System Analysis - Initializing 
installation catalogs...

When I type in the IP the error message is:
A valid domain name consists of components seperated by dots.
Each component contains letters, digits an hyphens. A hyphen may not
start or end a component and the last component man not begin with a digit.

[opensuse-factory] phone dialer

Hey Group;

Anyone with a phone modem - question is!  What dialer are you using.
It seems kppp is no longer usable due to upgrades in qt3/qt4.

SuSE 103Alpha5 comes with qt3 and parts of 4 - kppp is looking for
libqt-1.45 (as I remember) SuSE showes up with qt3-3.3.8-41

Short of wvdial is there another dailer?

[opensuse] HP PSP

2007-08-02 Thread jdd

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 Is this because my printer is obsolete (and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:

It says loud and clearly that it is missing libgtk-X11-2.0.la, so you have to
install that first. (Use pin/webpin to find out which package contains that
library.)
Then try again. Did you run the ./configure script BTW? Most of the time it

 1. These instructions were obviously written for debian, as apt-get is
 not necesarily the tool of choice for openSUSE.
 2. The names of the development packages are invalid for openSUSE as
 a) the development packages on openSUSE all end with -devel and
 b) openSUSE packages are sometimes named differently.
 
 I'd suggest looking at Requires and BuildRequires entries in the .spec
 file of the GURU .src.rpm to possibly get a hint what packages are
 needed.
 

Better still: use the page:

http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/SuSE+RPM+Specfile?t=anon

(which BTW was the *first* hit with the google search awn suse) to get exact
instructions how to build an rpm package from this particular tarball.

The lesson to learn from this is, that if you want to install a nifty new
package, it is *always* a good idea to google for nifty-new-package suse.

 Look at this: (German I am afraid, but you can make out what it all is):
 
 http://configure2.euro.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?b=c=decs=debsdt1kc=NRS64002l=deoc=N07642XPrbc=N07642XPs=bsd

no problem, since i am from austria i am able to understand german ;-)

but the link you gave brought me to the same configurator like the
austrian-dell-page.
and you can see at the top, that the cpu you can select is only a
Pentium® Dual-Core T2080 or a T2130.
both are NO core 2 duo.
i would not recommend to buy such a Pentium® Dual-Core.

after going through the installation instruction described at this link:

1. These instructions were obviously written for debian, as apt-get is
not necesarily the tool of choice for openSUSE.
2. The names of the development packages are invalid for openSUSE as
a) the development packages on openSUSE all end with -devel and
b) openSUSE packages are sometimes named differently.

I'd suggest looking at Requires and BuildRequires entries in the .spec
file of the GURU .src.rpm to possibly get a hint what packages are
needed.

 grep: /opt/gnome/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.la: No such file or directory

Use pin or webpin to search for the file. You fail to mention which
version of openSUSE you have installed and on which architecture
you're running it, but for FACTORY libgtk-x11-2.0.la is contained in
gtk2-devel.

 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

One more note, i can suspend it, but it just resumes when it wants to,
sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't

 Look at this: (German I am afraid, but you can make out what it all is):

One alternative would be to look at http://linux.dell.com/ and make
sure that whatever you order is similar in configuration to the
computers that Dell ships with Ubuntu.

I believe Dell has repositories with drivers, etc. for other Linux
distributions as well (probably for the modem, etc.).

The only major difference is that sometimes the Windows variant of a
model comes with an ATi video card, vs. nVidia for the Linux version.
Unless you need good 3D graphics, for business use I'd probably just
get the Intel GMA3100 anyway.

Is your budget pre- or post-VAT? The Latitude D630 starts at under
$900 in the USA market.

Actually, though I use Thunderbird 2, I think the extension is fine. 
The problem is with Enigmail.  It will work again if you install Mnenhy
extension.  Enigmail evidently does not export the header info as it

Actually this seems to be a bit generic... 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. (Unfortunately cannot check out the funambol part
as yet I have yet to rebuild the server end after an earlier unrelated
problem).

Re: [opensuse] Formatting error (-1012) when installing Opensuse 10.2

2007-08-02 Thread Philip Bradley

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.

Hmm...

Fiddled around with Mnenhy installed for 15 minutes no changes in
ReplyToList (was thinking of removing Enigmail simply to eliminate it
from possible inter-plugin interactions) ... Had given this up as
something I would have to live with until fixed..

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...

Thanks for help, I think Mnehny was the fix for the ReplyToList problem.

 Yes, mounting for local suse users works well.
 Right now I have modified /etc/fstab so that I can automount CDs.

Very interesting. Since SUSE is in with MS, have you heard anything

 I used Partition Magic to resize the partition

As has been mentioned previously, you need to resize the file system as
Partition Magic will not. The command line utility is: resize2fs.

I have found that QTParted tends to work in a similar manner to
Partition Magic. QTParted uses GNUParted. You can boot a Knoppix live
CD and run QTParted, or you can download the GParted Live CD if
partitioning is all you want. http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

The YaST partitioner works, but I have found some issues with it. I
prefer to run a live CD to ensure that none of the partitions are being
used. One word of caution, some live CDs, such as Knoppix will use a
swap partition on the HD if there is one, but you can always turn that
off.

 The old list contained a header like this:

 The current one doesn't. Nor is it possible to see the number in the web

I don't know either, but you do know there is a searchable copy at:

changing that file would work, though I would probably have to

Re: [opensuse] has anybody installed AWN svn on his openSUSE? (GNOME:STABLE maintainers please read)

2007-08-02 Thread Munkii
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 =)

Keep in mind the settings will differ if you use a router to share access.

Normally you use either the dhcp server your ISP provides or if you have a

 I had something like this a long time ago,  and if my rusty memory
 serves me correctly it was down to a problem with my networking setup,
 in particular the DNS settings.  Do you have the option to 'change
 hostname using DHCP' ticked in your network setup?
   
 Hi Pete,
 Must be close to the solution.
 No idea where to change the hostname using DHCP. Could not fine anything 
 useful.
 But found out that if I would like to setup a DHCP server the initialization 
 stops with the information:
 ERROR
 Cannot determine the hostname of .

 Looking at this information I would say that somewhere in my setup a dot has 
 creeped up. A dot but where?
   

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.

Cheers

Pete

There is no need to restart the system. It's going to restart the
network services, and everything will be OK.

You are correct Sunny, I apologise.  In my defence, please bear in mind
I'm now an official Vista user, so looking at your computer sideways

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.

 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.

[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?

Re: [opensuse] Resized Partition Issue SOLVED!

 As has been mentioned previously, you need to resize the file system as
 Partition Magic will not. The command line utility is: resize2fs.

 I have found that QTParted tends to work in a similar manner to
 Partition Magic. QTParted uses GNUParted. You can boot a Knoppix live
 CD and run QTParted, or you can download the GParted Live CD if
 partitioning is all you want. http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

 The YaST partitioner works, but I have found some issues with it. I
 prefer to run a live CD to ensure that none of the partitions are being
 used. One word of caution, some live CDs, such as Knoppix will use a
 swap partition on the HD if there is one, but you can always turn that
 off.

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

2007-08-02 Thread Registration Account
(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=aul=ens=genServiceTag=SystemID=DIM_P4_4700os=WW1osl=encatid=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.

          Thanks for any help.      
           My first instinct is to remove and reload the
  packages ( openldap
  server
  and client utilites ).

 Do you get error messages when you try to start LDAP, or does it just fail
 to do anything?
I get no error messages when it starts.

 Does anything appear in /var/log/messages?

I wonder if the IPv6 error is what is causing all the problems, I neither 
turned it on or off in the network setup.

If I use the ldap browser in yast it says it can't connect to server.

 I'm not sure what you mean when you say that you're trying to print the
 config files out...do you mean that `cat /etc/openldap/slapd.conf` (for
 example) fails?  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.
