Re: [opensuse-factory] classpath-webplugin
Den Saturday 15 September 2007 12:32:48 skrev Benji Weber: Francis pointed out to me that classpath-webplugin is installed by default on 10.3. This is a) rather pointless as I don't think it actually supports any applets ( I tried a dozen or so sites with java applets ) b) somewhat dangerous as I don't think I'd trust the security in the classpath webplugin. c) prevents the real sun java plugin from working when installed, until the user removes the classpath webplugin as this gets priority in both firefox and konqueror. Can I suggest - Making the sun plugin conflict with the classpath webplugin. - Preferably don't install the classpath version at all, if you're worried about completely free java go for java 7 it would be more reliable than classpath. I had this problem too. This was on x86_64 however, but I installed 32-bit firefox and sun java-plugin and had problems getting it to work until I figured out that I must manually remove classpath-webplugin. I thought classpath-webplugin was only installed by default on 64-bit installations, but apparently it's also done on 32-bit - it doesn't do much good anywhere - but on 32-bit it's extra problematic.

[opensuse-factory] novell ati driver
Hi, Do you think that the new opensource ati driver developed by novell will make it in 10.3? i`m asking because with my card (ati x1600 mobility) vesa driver does not support more than 800x600, while my native lcd resolution is 1680x1050. Also, in order to make more pleasant the installation steps on 10.3 , you could try including avivo driver (http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=avivo/xf86-video-avivo.git) . A small offtopic question: is there a git/cvs/something repository of this driver or is it developed internally? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse-factory] 10.3 Beta 3+ KDE-Live on Samsung P35
Hello! I have tested the KDE-Live-CD on a Samsung P35 and found some issues (which I did not find reported jet). Most of them are really hardware specific, so I do not know, if I should fill bug-reports. The boot-loader wants to boot with a resolution of 1024x768. So I changed to the native resolution of 1400x1050. After boot entering sax2, it tells me that my monitor has 17.1 inches and a 5/4 ratio, where it has 15 inches and a 4/3 ratio. I have a Radeon mobility 9700 (RV350 NP) . I can activate 3D acceleration in sax2 with the radeon-driver. But in sysinfo in always says no 3D acceleration, whereas glxgears always works! This Notebook has no entry in the 2ram whitelist. I did not manage to suspend with the options from http://de.opensuse.org/S2ram (I did not try all). But under 10.2 it works very well with the radeon-driver, radeonfb and vga=normal video=vesa:off and only -f.

In the patch bay, I have the first device normalled into the second's line-in, and it drives a monitor speaker system. The Aux and CD input jacks are also routed by the patch bay, so I have tons of old-school flexibility.

[opensuse] posix incompliant usernames on SUSE
Hi Guys I have spent several days porting a system across from an old Debian server to a shiny new openSUSE 10.2 machine including moving thousands of user accounts and home dirs. I was just about to put the new system into production and found that our provisioning scripts fail to create new users with the following error: # useradd 00c002f8dfe9 useradd: Invalid account name `00c002f8dfe9'. I dug a little deeper and found the following in the man page for SUSE's version of useradd: The account name must begin with an alphabetic character and the rest of the string should be from the POSIX portable character class ([A-Za-z_] [A-Za-z0-9_-.]*[A-Za-z0-9_-.$]). Now, I am sure this is correct POSIX behaviour, but the fact is I have a working Debian system and a non working SUSE system with no chance to change the way our accounts are created. They ALL start with a number (because they are based on MAC addresses) and we have field deployed software using this system which would take months to update. How can I turn off this account name check on SUSE? TIA -- Peter Nixon http://peternixon.net/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, Are there any xtra repos (for YAST) for SLED10 SP1. There are a few programs that I miss? Did you check the SDK stuff? Is there a SP2 in the pipeline and if so will it include KDE4? I don't think so: SP1 has just been released Does the boxed version of SLED10 SP1 include more packages than the downloadable one? I don't think so: by downloading the dvd iso you get what you have in the box (apart maybe from a printed manual) Is it possible to Upgrade SLED evaluation to 10.3? These are different products. You should choose between the entreprise version and the opensuse version. You have to decide what is important for you: if you want a lot of updated software, go with the opensuse distribution. SLED10 Service Packs will give you some updated softwares (firefow went from 1.5 to 2.x, new kernel, ...) but nothing similar to opensuse, as Novell could not provide support to all the software around.

But really, Evolution goes through the process of downloading mail from my Gmail account, and then it says it found, say, two messages from my other account, and just waits until it shows an error message that basically says the connection timed out. If I pop that account from the winbox using outlook express, it downloads the messages fine, so the server is not down. So I'm really baffled. Try fetchmail. It's similar to a daemon, or runs from a console, it only fetches and then forwards to postfix for local delivery. But it writes very verbose logs if you ask it to. (...) - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R. I tried using Kmail and Thunderbird with exactly the same results. So it was evident it was not an Evolution problem. I googled some more for a different subject and then I found a page saying that MTU value could be the problem.

Re: [opensuse] Re: OpenSuse 10.2
Re-hi all, Last night I successfully (apparently) installed OpenSuse 10.2. It was getting late and I let it run its course when I went to bed. This morning it looked like the only thing I needed to do was set username and password but for some reason, it wasn't working. In the interest of time and checking e-mail before I went to work, I went ahead and checked mail via Windows. Tonight, I attempted to boot into OpenSuse but was confronted with the sign-on. I tried what I normally would have used as a root username and password unsuccessfully. The same with my normal username and password. I have not set them but don't know how now to do that? Any clues? It is installed but I have not yet assigned a password for root (nor is root recognized without a password (which I have not yet assigned) and I certainly have not yet assigned a regular username and password. :( Any help would be appreciated.
