After poking a lot of buttons I finally figured out that it had just lots it's mind - was listening to the wrong input, was set to partial resolution, a bunch of things. I assume a surge hit the monitor or something. I haven't done that but I will. You are saying, I take it, that you do not see even the BIOS messages scrolling by when you first boot up. Correct, not even the splash screen announcing the motherboard model, etc. That makes me wonder if the BIOs is set to send it's output to something other than the AGP/PCIe port. Possible but the system has been working for years and has gone thru several upgrades. I would have thought that such a problem would have shown itself by now. Is there a built-in VGA on the mainboard that you are not using? If so, plug your monitor into it and see if it's getting signal. If so you'll have to go into the BIOS and tell the BIOS to use the AGP/PCIe port (it will probably be an options called Init Display First No built-in that I know of but I'll double check. You might also need to clear your CMOS memory. How to do this depends on the specific computer. Its usually done by moving a jumper temporarily. That appears to be okay. See next comment below. Is the computer turning on at all? Go you get power lights, do the fans start to turn when you turn the computer on? Not only does the computer turn on, from the sounds it makes, I can tell that it is loading the operating system and doing such things as mounting external disk drives. I think that if I could just find that VGA on/off switch, everything would immediately go back to normal. If so and my pervious advice still doesn't work, you might try using a PCI video card too, at least temporarily. The GeForce FX 5200 is a PCI board.

If you just walk into a store and ask for a machine that will be good to go with Linux, they'll look at you blankly. It's a major effort to check the details yourself. Most off In a long experience in support as well as development this is not *just* a linux issue, you get as much and sometime more grief with M$ systems with manufacturers being lazy or incompetent in supplying drivers that will work with various OS versions. The finger should be mostly pointed at the hardware people in this case... 2) Photography related. I use Windows to run Photoshop CS2 in a color managed workflow. In this, Linux doesn't cut it for two reasons: snip GIMP is only 8 bit. That's fire in theory, but when you mess with stuff much, you quickly run into posterization (I see this even in some professional's work and while those in question don't seem to care, I personally hate it). Gimp 8 bit only !?! clarify context and format, seems a very broad and sweeping generalisation I find gimp a bit counter intuitive on occasion but I also have the same problem with photoshop. To be honest I only worked with the driver and graphic library side in the (very distant) past, and rarely do things with actual images... 3) Irritations with web plugins. Idiots out there keep writing stuff that's windows only, and there always seems to be trouble trying to get the latest Flash player. When it's available, it's tricky to install. Personally, must remember to kill things like flash player, one of my pet hates is going to website and finding that need to load the latest flash player to even get in..., I usually want info, not pretty moving pictures... /rant 4) Palm pilot-: Several versions of palm device just don't sync, needless to say, this includes some that matter to me. I don't know how to sync my palm and evolution-etc. with web calendars like google or yahoo. That's important to me. I gave up using my palm pilot because of this. Consequently, I'm appallingly badly organized and regularly double book myself and miss meetings. PDA synchronisation is a complex area, Palm originally went the direction that built their own environment within Windows and it worked well (pity PalmOS was so limited). Symbian/PSION went the route of integrating with the Windows desktop and often it was more than a bit unreliable. Both approaches are proprietorial, and Linux implementations were largely reverse engineered (at least in the Symbian/PSION world). A more modern route is SyncML and things have improved in the Linux world in part because the specification is open. I would take a good look at egroupware, the project management side looks like it has a lot of potential and the basic SyncML support is there. An alternative for synchronisation is funambol. To be honest I would not want to put my personal schedule on third party supplier... Calender synchronisation is still a problem area on all platforms. The OMA SyncML specification is strong on the communication protocol but there are aspects of the Server and Client responsibilities that are not closely specified and are down the application developer. 5) Video; I have failed repeatedly to build a system that plays all reasonable kinds of video. Mostly this seems to be a deliberate policy on bill gates' part (and the lawyers and the evil patent system, of course). I've reached the point where I can do most file types with the exception of AVI with the type 9 codec. I first saw video on a PC in about 1990, at the time I thought it looked pretty exciting, but now I rather wonder about its value. 6) Strange inconsistencies (That can't happen): Oh come on !

[opensuse] P2 laptop install - boot loader issue
All, Step 1 of my Weather Station project is to install 10.3 on to an old P2 laptop. I'm using a Dell P2 Latitude with a CD, but no floppy. (I have an external available if I need it.) I'm try with the 10.3 KDE single CD install media, downloaded from suse. I get as far as the bootloader install section. For some reason, I get a dialog box about installing lilo and needing to write the boot sector to a floppy. (I prefer grub, but can live with lilo). I clicked something for it to proceed, and it failed. The hard disk is not boot at this point. I tried booting to rescue mode and mounting the sda1 partition (looks good). On sda1, I have /boot which looks good. /boot/grub is missing menu.lst. I then tried running grub --no-floppy which gave me a command prompt like I wanted. I quit from that, did a chroot to /mnt so /sda1 was my effective root. Did grub --no-floppy --config-file=/boot/grub/menu.lst I can't remember if that gave me a command prompt or not the first time. Now if I try grub --no-floppy I just runs and I back to a standard bash command prompt with no chance to try to install grub. Ideas?

I assumed one primary was optimal, thus clamd is commented out by default with the suse amavisd and used as a secondary. I figured 2 primary may cause double scanning and load the server more or slow things down. But I guess I was wrong. I went ahead and corrected the socket path and name, uncommented the clamd entry, and reloaded, and it is now using clamd and antivir as primary and clamscan as secondary.

Re: [opensuse] Strange SATA problems with openSUSE
On Friday 25 January 2008 14:43:23 Clayton wrote: I've posted a couple times about this with no replies yet Earlier today, the entire computer came crashing to a halt... so it forced me to spend more time looking into the problem. The motherboard I have (ASUS M2N-e SLI) has 4 SATA2 ports. SATA 1, 2, 3 and 4. I also have a SATA1 RAID controller with 2 SATA ports. I have drives connected on IDE0 and IDE1 and they are working fine. Scenario 1: If I leave the RAID card out, and just connect drives to SATA 1 and SATA 2 the computer boots fine. BIOS finds the SATA drives, and Linux is happy. Scenario 2: If I add drives to SATA 3 and 4 in Scenario 1, the BIOS sees all four drive2, but when I boot Linux, it errors out. I can boot the OS, but the error logs fill up with errors, and I have serious performance issues.. until it just dies altogether. The boot errors look like this: - 6ata3: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) 4ata3.00: qc timeout (cmd 0x27) 4ata3.00: failed to read native max address (err_mask=0x4) 4ata3: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs 6ata3: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) 4ata3.00: qc timeout (cmd 0x27) 4ata3.00: failed to read native max address (err_mask=0x4) 3ata3.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) 4ata3: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps 4ata3.00: limiting speed to UDMA7:PIO5 4ata3: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs -- and continue on for quite some time. Scenario 3: If I add the RAID card in to Scenario 1, but do not connect any drives to the RAID, all boots and works OK. Scenario 4: If I connect 2 SATA drives to the RAID card, and have two drives from Scenario 1 also connected, all works and boots OK. Scenario 5: If I connect a SATA drive to SATA 3 or 4 in Scenario 4, I get the same results as with Scenario 2... a long list of SATA errors on the boot. Has anyone encountered this before? Could it be a hardware issue.. a failing SATA controller on the motherboard, or is it some obscure Linux thing? C.

It text only. It doesn't (see above). Scanninng text only files is very fast, most of the time is spent to actually load the scanner itself. That's why a daemonized scanner is preferable.

[opensuse] Re: How can I give the password to an ssh session on the command line?
Hi Carlos, please try the following: ssh-keygen -t rsa creates a file ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub and ~/.ssh/id_rsa now take the file id_rsa.pub and put it's contents into ~/.ssh/authorized_keys of the _remote_ machine. This leads to a password less login because your account is signed appropriately. I guess this is advantageous over handing over passwords through a script IMHO.

IMO there should be an additional LTS release of Opensuse. I think it would be for both the users and the devs an advantage and presumably not much of competition to SLES/SLED. Before all I do like the bleeding edge touch of Opensuse. I always update my distro when the third party repositories are available for the new release. (Yes I know! Shame on me I don't work with you on factory releases.) That's cool for a workstation, but what about server? Some of us maybe even not quite few do need neither SLES for a home-server/small-cap-server nor would even think of putting a bleeding edge distro on such way destined machine. For my part I'm at the moment thinking of setting up a home-server with a http and ftp deamon on it in order to suit my very little business. Thus what distro do I shall choose? 10.2 or maybe even 10.3? Definitely not. Sorry I won't. I tend to use either Centos or even Debian, but I'd really love having the opportunity to choose a LTS-Opensuse... If providing a LTS-release then, it should be a stable one, with security patches and updated with current stable kernels. I would even pay for it, a reasonable amount of cash of course. I'd have no need for phone or email support, but all patches, kernels and the this mailing list. When (or if) my company gets bigger then believe me I will buy SLES, coz then I'm convinced that I won't have much spare time but even more cash to spare though. And a 24/7 supported SLES would even decrease my administration costs and thus satisfy my very ugly opportunistic nature... ... and a 'centos-like' for SLES might come... - -- All the best, Peter J.

Re: [opensuse] Kmail and taglines
On Saturday 26 January 2008 13:20, Stan Goodman wrote: Is there a way that one can readily include randomized taglines in messages sent with Kmail? KMail filters can be designated to act on outgoing messages only. Additionally, KMail filters can subject a message to processing through an external filter program. With these two features, one can easily adorn each outgoing message (including those that go only to certain lists) with a signature trailer synthesized by an arbitrary program or script. Such a script could be as simple as this: -==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==- #!/bin/bash --norc cat echo '-- ' fortune -==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==--==- Now, I'll admit I'd never tried this before, so I gave it a shot using that exact script. Unfortunately, I found that while the message left in the sent-mail folder was modified as intended, the message sent was not!

This is that kind of logic I really admire, indeed. And btw, you don't need to build anything. Just take SLES and its updates and do a re-branding. It's mostly open source.

[opensuse] Alt-F2 Alt-F1 Not Working with Compiz-Fusion Anymore
Hi, I can't get Alt-F2 to bring up the Run Command dialog box - it used to be working fine before. I've already searched through the archives and found http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2007-08/msg01595.html The proposed solution is to use gconf-editor which I don't have installed. I know that gconf-editor stores registry-like settings for applications, including Compiz-Fusion which is what I'm using. When I checked the preference settings with the Fusion Icon in my system tray, it says that my backend is a Flat-file Configuration Backend. Does this mean that the Compiz-Fusion settings are not set with gconf-editor? If so, which file do I modify to get my Alt-F2 working? I'm so used to using it by now. For that matter, my Alt-F1 is also missing. I can't get the Kicker menu with Alt-F1 now when in the past, I could. This happed after I played with multiple monitors and Compiz-Fusion enabled. So apparently I screwed something up, but don't know what. And it's not my key, cos Ctl-Alt-F2/F1 works fine. I'm using 10.3 with KDE3 and Compiz-Fusion. Appreciate any advice.

[opensuse-packaging] Black magic building Virtualbox?
Hi. I wonder if there is some black magix involved to build Virtualobx on x86_64. To my understanding it needs bin86 or dev86 to build but those packages don't exist as x86_64 packages. So how should this be handle in the build service? And what does this lines in the spec file do: # WARNING: This is not a comment, but the real command to repack souce: #%(sh %{_sourcedir}/%{name}-patch-source VirtualBox-%{version}_OSE.tar.bz2) It triggers an error for me.
