I set up a PSC 1315 for my brother no sweat under 10.2, in fact it set itself up, the OP needs to make sure the latest hp-lip package is installed, and use the hp=setup utility if 10.3 beta is not finding this unit. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse] VMI enabled Kernel for 10.2? Performance issues with VMWare
Hi, I am running SuSE 10.2 under VMWare. The processor load when ideling is very high (20-30%). VMWare support said that I would need a VMI enabled kernel.

I too have experienced this before and I have found myself wondering about it. Line quality can do this. House wiring can do this. I have had it where I connect 100% some days and 10% on others. I don't know what else to tell you on this. If you are dialing and are connecting, but not negotiating a final connection, I would check the condition of the patch cable I'm using, make sure there aren't balls of dust in the jack, and finally look for a neighbor that works for the phone company and trade a couple of beers for him bringing all the cool tools over to check.

[opensuse] Dell Notebook
I have a friend that has a Dell notebook that is a Windows holdout. However, he keeps seeing my setup at home and listening to me tout SuSE and he sent me a question recently that I simply can't answer. Will it work on his machine? This is the information he sent me: The info on this machine is: Dell Inspiron 1521 - AMD Turion X2 1.6 Ghz processor, 2 Gb RAM, 160 Gb HD, Sigma Tel high def audio codec, ATI Radeon X1270 video, Broadcomm wireless 802.11b/g. The SUSE 10.2 Live dvd had everything working except the sound and the wireless. I was wondering if anyone in the SUSE forums had this configuration and had everything working under 10.2? Any information about how well 10.2 in particular performs on the above hardware ESPECIALLY multimedia. He listens to MP3's and watches *.avi and DVDs and even plugs his stereo into the line out jack so he can listen to his CD collections he has captured on disk.He currently uses Windows and if 10.2 works well with his specific hardware, I believe he will now join the ranks of EX Windows. I would also be interested in how 10.3 B3 and later work though from testing on my home machines (not Dell), I am not sure it is quite ready for prime time. It has 'eaten' my drives, hidden my cursor, blanked my sound, and while I'm willing to test and try to debug 10.3, I'm not sure it is quite ready for someone so currently Windows centric but 'looking'.

Now it always opens my home folder by default, and I'd like to have it open one of my documents folders instead. I tried to google for this but found nothing. Nor do any of the .gnome* folders in my home folder contain anything that would seem to affect this. Thanks for any ideas!

Hi Getting nowhere. I created a user ftpadmin and a group ftpadmin. I made ftpadmin's home folder /srv/www/htdocs everything under /htdocs is owned by ftpadmin:ftpadmin I can now ftp remotely to the /htdocs folder. No problem Having made these changes I can no longer see any web pages. What do I need to do to be able to both ftp and see webpages? Who has to own what?

[opensuse] apache won't serve webpages
Hi I changed permissions on the /srv/www/htdocs folder from root:root to ftpadmin:ftpadmin and made the user ftpadmin have the /htdocs folder as home folder. I did this so that I could ftp to the /htdocs folder and manage my website externally. In doing so I can now ftp perfectly well to /htdocs but I cannot see any webpages via http. Could anyone give me a working user:group setup so that I can both ftp to /htdocs AND be able to have apache serve webpages?

[opensuse] Booting is just not working...
I have run into a very strange problem.. Hardware: RioWorks HDAMA-G motherboard 2 x Opteron 246 4GB RAM When running with a LSI Logic MegaRAID 320-1 *and* a Adaptec 2820SA RAID adapter, the system runs perfectly fine in all aspects. When I remove the MegaRAID adapter, I can't even boot into Rescue mode from the 10.2 DVD. The DVD starts up, I select "Rescue Mode", and it shows me that the kernel is loading. When it comes to 100%, the screen goes black and nothing more happens. I even let it be for 45 minutes, it never went on. I put the MegaRAID back in, and the system runs fine again. This is spooky.. Oh, when I had the MegaRAID out, I booted with Acronis and PartED magic CDs, both came up just fine, but not any of my tested SUSE disks, I've tried 10.2, 10.0, 9.3, SLSTD8, SLES9, SLES10 and United Linux 1.0.

What I usually do is to create lvm volumes for such a partitions, leaving some free space on the volume group, so if I need to, I can easily extend it.

What I did is to create a couple of templates for the two size envelopes I use. I made a logo with draw with my return address, I adjusted the page size and wrote the field to be fill with mail merge, create also a couple of frames to add pictures or attn: and setup the printing features for my printer like format size, feeding tray, no duplex, paper: envelope etc. Then save it as template. Now I want to print an envelope and just look at templates click and done. If you want to go in that direction I can help you and even send you one of my templates. I do not know if I can attach a template to a message here if not I can e-mail. -=terry=- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse] sound card woes
well, after fighting with my sound card, i have figured out that although yast sees both sound cards it does not load the snd-ice1712 module for my delta 66 sound card only the snd-powerpc module for my g4 card. i did a modprobe snd-ice1712 and it tells me the module does not exist. After doing much research i found out that for some reason in some cases suse will not install this module, so my question is should i use the src rpm to build this module ? or try to build alsa from scratch using source from alsa-project.org. any suggestions before i tackle this ?
