Re: [opensuse] Kernel updates
On Tue, 2007-08-28 at 22:21 +0100, Thomas Hertweck wrote: Roger Oberholtzer wrote: I know that this is a topic that gets endless questions. Perhaps because a mistake can be so problematic. Here goes mine: I am running an openSUSE 10.0 system with kernel 2.6.13-15.16-default. This is a rather recent security-fixed kernel. But still the 2.6.13 that came with 10.0. I am looking at trying a more recent kernel. Like kernel-default-2.6.22.5-4.1.i586.rpm, which is available from openSUSE's downloads. A few questions: 1) This contains all the various SUSE patches so it will (or should) fit in like the 2.6.13 kernel did? I am not sure what you mean by fit in. It will most likely require updates of other packages to work correctly. RPM will probably tell you that it requires later versions of some packages when you try to install the kernel RPM. I mean things like the boot splash and any other less obvious things that SUSE fiddle with. 2) Will this keep my current kernel? Meaning, can this rpm be removed allowing the original kernel to be used? The SuSE kernel RPMs will change your bootloader config via the RPM postinstall script. In principle, you can install several kernels in parallel (don't use RPM's -U option). All you have to make sure is that your bootloader config contains correct entries for both kernels (after the installation) so you can decide which one to boot at the grub boot menu. The installation of the new kernel RPM will probably change the default kernel entry in grub's menu.conf and if you're unlucky it will also mess up some old entries (I've seen it happening several times; it will probably also change some links in /boot) - therefore, you should check the bootloader config and /boot before rebooting the system. I understand all that. It is a 'best case' scenario. If the RPM has no errors. There was another thread here just recently where it was claimed that the parallel install of kernels in fact replaced large parts of the existing kernel. To be sure, as the kernel parts in /lib/modules and /usr/src have different top level directories, I am not sure how this could happen. But a determined RPM could surely find a way. I am usually compiling and installing new kernels myself, I do not use the RPM packages. 3) Are there any issues with glibc when going from 2.6.13 to 2.6.22? Or any other issues? I see that sysfsutils needs updating. I guess this is because of the disk name changes. However, I do not find any sysfsutils for 10.0 when searching openUSUE (http://software.opensuse.org/search). The same is true for irqbalance. You not only have to install a new kernel but other software as well (you've already mentioned it), and this software needs to be backward-compatible otherwise it could happen that you're no longer able to run the old kernel (usually, it is). The main problem is that you might have to compile all of these additional packages yourself because nobody offers ready-to-use RPMs for old distro versions like SuSE 10.0. And sometimes these software packages require updates of other software packages, and so on. Sometimes it can become quite tricky... My recommendation: think twice whether you really need a new kernel. I am also using 10.0 here and the kernel works fine for me. Do you need some of the new features in the latest kernel? If you only want to have a look at it and play with the latest kernel version, then it might be easier to setup a new openSuSE 10.2 or beta 10.3 on a spare partition (or in a virtual environment) and use it there. Otherwise you have to go through the process of updating some packages on 10.0 - whether this is easy or not depends a bit on your experience. I think I will give it a pass. My real reason for this is new features in the firewire video drivers that would drastically improve a component I make. There is a greatly improved user-land DMA interface. I want to try it, but it seems that it requires 2.6.19 or newer. I will next investigate if this is because of the kernel itself, or because that is when the new drivers were released. Maybe it will be easier to get the newer firewire drivers to work with 2.6.13. I should be so lucky... Which kernel introduced the udev changes?

[opensuse] Is side effect of ifup on iwconfig explicable ?
With respect to wlan and internet access I have had some success
with OS10.2 and so have
after a succession of DVD updating a remnant ifcfg-wlan0, now
evidently not entirely compatible
to OS10.3beta2.
There has however been no success in booting up the wlan ( in Linux
) during the good halfyear
of switching my dualboot Fujitsu-Siemens desktop between WinXp and
any alpha or beta version of
OpenSuse 10.*. Rather while in XP I use the YAReg tool for looking
into the Reiser file system
to examine the crucial man and /etc/.. files from within cygwin, in
relative repose, thus able
to send this email.

[opensuse] Problem installing 10.3 beta2 with PATA SATA DVDs
Hi, I just updated to 10.3/x86 beta2 from beta1 using the DVD ISO. Everything worked OK except for recognising the DVD during boot. I have one PATA DVD one SATA DVD. The system can't boot from the SATA DVD. 10.3b2 boots OK from the PATA DVD but then fails to load the installation catalogue, gives me a message in red then goes to the manual install. Checking the boot logs I see that it is trying to find the catalogue on /dev/sr0, the SATA DVD. I can proceed from that point by selecting the PATA DVD every thing is OK from then on. In beta 1 the devices where /dev/hda (PATA) /dev/sr0 (SATA) I had no problem. This time they where /dev/sr1 (PATA) /dev/sr0 (SATA). This is probably a bug report but I found the registration process to be somewhat intrusive in the amount of information required. Thanks for the best distro around.

[opensuse] compiz +emerald +suse 10.2, 10.3
Started this email with a problem with compiz, but think I found the answer. When I would boot into suse level 5, I could no get the start menu or do anything else other than right-click, and log out. I would go to console session, the startx. Logout again, and do startx again, then everything seemed to work as it should. In ~.kde/Autostart/startcompiz.sh, I changed it from #! /bin/sh compiz --replace ccp emerald --replace #! /bin/sh emerald --replace It now works from cold boot without having to logout etc. Without the emarald statement, the windows have no decoration at all, not even the close-minimize-maximize buttons. Also changed the NVIDIA drivers from 9639 to 100.14.11. KDE no longer locks up on exit as it did before and I get about a 2% increase in the glxgears fps noted below. I do have another question related though. Suse 10.2 system is AMD X64 X2 +3200 with Nvidia Gforce 7300 GT AGP graphic card. Doing glxgears, as it opens, I get about 6500 fps. I maximize it to full screen of 1680X1050 and get about 400 fps. Suse 10.3 system is AMD X64 X2 +4600 with Nvidia Gforce 7300 GT PciE X16 graphic card. Doing glxgears, as it opens, I get about 4500 fps. I maximize it to full screen of 1680X1050 and get about 290 fps. With 10.3 system I also tried Geforce 7600GS and got about the same thing. The question is, is it normal for the PCI Express X16 to be so much slower than the AGP8? I mean, the 7300 GT and 7600 GS are not the speediest cards on the block, but I would expect they would be closer thatn that.

It handles two just fine, I'm sure four will work, too. Does htop show all four cores? It should. Is the current kernel multi-threaded such that the end user gets any benefit if they purchase this processor? Linux has been able to support multi-CPU and multi-core processor for quite a while. The issue is more how any given application is written. No application parallelizes automatically. My laptop has dual core and I do see htop reporting that the both CPU's are being utilized. Modern operating systems frequently have more than one runnable thread or process. Individual applications are another story. While GUI applications typically have a certain amount of multi-threading to accommodate the event-driven programming model of modern GUI frameworks, their core functionality is something else. Some do and some don't. It's not even meaningful for all applications to be multi-threaded. Anyway, the advent of multi-core processors is driving developers to exploit them on a more widespread basis for the first time. You can expect a couple of things: 1) An general trend toward better performance as multi-core systems become more common and programmers learn to exploit them. 2) Concurrency bugs: Concurrent programming can be much more challenging than conventional single-thread programming. Programmers, especially application programmers, haven't generally had to deal with concurrent programming models in the past. The Core 2 processors are a considerable improvement over their predecessors. I doubt you'll be sorry to have built a system around one of them.

Re: [opensuse] 32b compiled program not running in 64x environment - open SuSE 10.2
Hi Marcus,
I have checked my matlab installation and I can launch standalone matlab under
both 32 and 64 linux.
The code snippet from Mathworks is:
/*
* Start the MATLAB engine locally by executing the string
* matlab
*
* To start the session on a remote host, use the name of
* the host as the string rather than \0
*
* For more complicated cases, use any string with whitespace,
* and that string will be executed literally to start MATLAB
*/
if (!(ep = engOpen(\0))) {
fprintf(stderr, \nCan't start MATLAB engine\n);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
...
Under 32b linux the program continues and executes sample commands.
Under 64b linux, the return code from engOpen is *not* zero and I get the
can't start matlab engine error.
Thanks again,
Vahe

Installed OK, but, GLXgears shows only about 2900 FPS. Shouldn't it be much faster? I get the nvidia spalsh at bootup amd my xorg.conf shows nvidia as the driver. 2900 fps? wow, wish I could get that many. If you were using the plain old frame buffer you'd be lucky to get a few hundred FPS on glxgears. Well yeah, butthe gears were in that little box. When I go full screen it drops to about 200 FPS. The previous driver used to whip those gears so fast you couldn't see the cogs. Don't remember the numbers.

[opensuse-wiki] Wiki Site Layout Suggestion (http://en.opensuse.org/Welcome_to_openSUSE.org)
Just a suggestion, http://www.opensuse.org/ got a new layout, which looks a lot nicer than the old one, and the Get It link there looks very nice and professional, but shouldn't the wiki site get a new layout as well? It would be more inviting. I don't know about you guys, but I always love to see a new layout or design on one of my favorite sites. Maybe I'm wrong and it seems nice and new enough? I'm open to any comments about this. It wouldn't serve much more than a cosmetic purpose, but it still may be time for an upgrade. -- Regards, Christopher Cook - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The new layout is planned, but there is a lot more testing that has to be done for en.opensuse.org to prevent large scale breakage :-) BTW, there is an idea for Frank: How about to transfer articles to test wiki, and fix them there if necessary? It is a lot of work, but also opportunity for cleanup, reorganization etc. Than whole wiki can be copied back. -- Regards, Rajko. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
