[opensuse] gnome shortcut
... and this is the second question unanswered in SLE. I've got SUSE 10.0 and use KDE/GNOME supplementary repos.

KDE works like a charm, Gnome suffer of some problems the most noticeable of which are: - ALT + F2 (and similar) doesn't work ... I've had a look on gnome shortcuts on the Control Panel, tried to modifie them but still no result :-( - when I lauch programs like YaST, Smart I am correctly asked the root password, then the launch process silently fails if i launch the app from the root terminal (yast2 ) everything works normally - today, after a system update managed from smartpm everything in gnome seems f***ed up ! gnome-panel, evolution, and other things are all in a bad state of installation maybe are the repos changing under my feet while I am upgrading ? -- .~. nicola -=kOoLiNuS=- losito /v\ // \\[ITA] http://www.koolinus.net /( )\ [ENG] http://kool-solutions.blogspot.com ^^ ^^Linux Registered User #293182 icq:62837984 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

http://www.flickr.com/groups/opensuse/
the group is, obviously, open to everyone who would like to join in I
thought it can be fun, hope you'll have fun too ...
[Richard Bos]
For what can this be used, can you give a little introduction about its
possibilities?
Uhm, I'll try to explain my vision. First and foremost I like the community
aspect of Open Source, I believe that if people are well with each other works
and interest then they can collaborate better to achieve a common goal. And
doing so they can feed the soul and have fun too ...
So, flickr has born some time ago now, and reading the Flickr FAQs we can see:
What is Flickr?
Flickr is the best way to store, sort, search and share your photos online.
There is a huge mass of photos in the world, and Flickr provides a way to
organize yours, and for you and your friends and family to tell your stories
about them.
The best way to learn about it is to upload some photos, explore the site[1],
join some groups [2] and make some friends.
[1] http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/
[2] http://www.flickr.com/groups/
---
So, to agglomerate since many people have blogs {Planet SUSE, Planet Gnome and
so on}, posts on forum it's screenshots and hangs around the web promoting
their interests I find that Flickr can be used too to invite people around the
opensuse group since it's social aspect ...
So, if I have a nice groups of images of a LUG conference, a workshop on some
code, a FOSDEM photo report I can put my photos on Flickr, tag them with
opensuse suse whatever and then publish them everywhere ...
Hope I've explained myself clearly ... if not, ask me again ;-)

[opensuse] liferea and rssowl
Hi people ...
I have a strange problem with my 2 favourite rss reader.
rpm -q liferea
liferea-1.0_0.2-1.guru.suse100
this package cannot use the internal browser when it's set to Mozilla. It
simply crashes ... setting it to gtkHTML make the app work smoothly.
I've also tried RSS Owl (my favourite reader in these days), i've downloaded
the 1.2rc package and it works ... but also it can't handle the internal
browser thing on their page [1] i can read:
Q: What do I need to run the Internal Browser on Linux?
A: A supported version of Mozilla must be installed (1.4 GTK2 or above 1.4).
Set the environment variable MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Mozilla installation
folder,
so i did:
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/opt/mozilla/lib
and then:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
${MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME}:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
[on one row]
but this doesn't actually makes any difference ...
Any hint ? I get the feeling the two are connected...
Thanks !

Another question, if it's possible to have an answer. As you can read here: http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/downloads/suse_linux/instructions_eval.html When delivered on a single DVD ISO, SUSE Linux 10.0 required one download of 4.5 GB but when you actually download the iso, or click on the mirror location, going here: http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/downloads/ftp/eval.html you have: Germany ftp://ftp.suse.com/ (Nuremberg) * DVD ISO image (64bit, 3,6 GB) * DVD ISO image (32bit, 3,6 GB) So, what's missing ? -- .~.

Aren't RH, SUSE and Debian the big three in the Linux world? the community thing pointed out can be resumed in the very little amount of free-lance developers doing their packages available for SuSE. For example if you search a particular software, like Grass (a GIS application), it's more probale to find it for Debian of Mandrake than SuSE or another distro. The pure number of SuSE rpms I think it's the point of this question, and having opened the gates of the development of SuSE should (i hope so) dramatically increase the number of hacker @work for us (at least me) users :-D -- .~.

[opensuse] Re: SUSE 10 and WLAN
I got my ipw2100 going with static IP and 128bit's WEP encryption by selecting ASCII where you put the passphrase. Also on Gnome I have a nice little tool (remebering me of NetworkManager from Fedora) which enables me to choose which kind of connection to use, office-wlan, home-wlan or just the old eth0. Hope it can help. PS = do you have any switch on you case which de/activates the pci card ? check if SuSE detects it's state... -- .~.

In my experience, they tend to take futher discussion offline after someone answers their mail to the list. People searching the archives will never know the solution and the unfortunate person sending the first reply is going to support the original poster for the rest of his life (ok, that's a bit exaggerated). I'm totally with Carl on this subject. I do have got a list of clients [1] which are standard complaint about this problem, but for people like me dual booting, or just liking the mozilla's free stuff unfortunately there's no solution ... even the display mailing list header [2] isn't helpful. [1]http://www.linuks.mine.nu/debian-faq-wiki/ReplyToListEmailClients [2] http://www.cweiske.de/misc_extensions.htm#mailinglistheader On a side note: Is there any mail client similar to Mozilla Mail which supports SOCKS, Reply-To-List, PGP/MIME and is not QT- or Mono-based? sylpheed-claws is right for you ? if not please ignore my advice. Thanks for all the good work ! -- .~.
