 So that means I have now reinstalled the kernel, X, and the nvidia
 drivers but I *still* get this unresolved symbol error.

 I've only installed the nvidia modules through YaST, not NVidia's custom
 app.

 It's entirely plausible that my 11 year old has upgraded or uninstalled
 something that's caused a clash, but what?

Try removing the /usr/lib/xorg/modules/updates/extensions/libglx.so file. X 
should be using /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so instead.

 You mean uninstall x11-video-nvidia presumably, not just
 rm /usr/lib/xorg/modules/updates/extensions/libglx.so*

 OK, so in YaST I uninstalled x11-video-nvidia and nvidia-gfx-kmp-default

 and just for good measure reinstalled xorg-x11-server to ensure
 /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so that is good.


 So that gets rid of the error on loading the libglx, but without
 hardware acceleration of course.

 $ glxinfo
 name of display: :0.0
 display: :0  screen: 0
 direct rendering: No
 server glx vendor string: SGI
 server glx version string: 1.2


 Next stop then is to reinstall x11-video-nvidia which I did simply by
 ticking the checkbox next to it in YaST (as documented
 at http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA). Naturally YaST selected
 nvidia-gfx-kmp-default too.

 So now we have

 $ rpm -qa --last | head
 x11-video-nvidia-1.0.9639-0.1 Sat 19 Jan 2008 17:33:25 GMT
 nvidia-gfx-kmp-default-1.0.9639_2.6.18.8_0.7-0.1 Sat 19 Jan 2008
 17:30:32 GMT
 xorg-x11-server-7.2-30.11 Sat 19 Jan 2008 17:15:05 GMT


 Restart X (i.e. logout and login again) ...
 And we're right back to

 $ glxinfo
 name of display: :0.0
 Xlib:  extension GLX missing on display :0.0.
 Xlib:  extension GLX missing on display :0.0.

 At this point I /really/ don't know what I'm doing wrong.

OK, I thought you used the shar from NVIDIA like me. The missing symbol is 
in /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 (symlink) in my system, so X finds the wrong file 
in your case. Try searching for other occurrences of libGLcore.so and 
removing them.

 Nothing happens. I would expect ksnapshot --current for alt+print and
 just kshapshot for ctrl+print.

   What else do I need to check?


Alt-print screen (sysrq) is used by the kernel according 
to /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sysrq.txt, so it's unavailable for X. I have 
no idea about ctrl-print though.

 I absolutely need a working java plugin with firefox to access a website

 I was formally on 10.2 and an update broke this.

 I fixed it after regressing from Java 1.5 down to 1.4.2.

 I updated my computer to 10.3 in anticipation of a better solution. Sadly I
 am 64bit and this involved changing all my java and browser versions to
 32bit ones. But having done that I have firefox and java and it seems to
 work for the sun java tester.

 However, it does not work for the website I need to use.  Is there any
 simple way for me to revert to a java version 1.4.2 given that this is not
 in the yast repos for 10.3?

 Thanks,


Try moving or removing the ~/.java directory. Your description matches exactly 
my problem, which I solved this way.

 Where is the required library on SuSE 10.3 ?   I
 searched for it with Yast but could not find it.

I was able to run the program you mention using a libg2c.so.0.0.0 binary from 
an older gcc version. You may find it in this address: 
http://rapidshare.com/files/78552337/libg2c.so.0.0.0.html .
After you download it, save it in /usr/local/lib, for instance, run 'ldconfig' 
as root and start spectra_st.

I cannot guarantee that it will work 100% perfectly; I have tested it on my 
system and was able to launch spectra_st. The proper solution seems to be to 
inform the developers of the program that it no longer runs in current linux 
distributions. I would also like to suggest that you check the R statistical 
package (package R-base in the 
http://repos.opensuse.org/science/openSUSE_10.3/ repository), which includes 
a number of functions about time series, probably not as specialized as 
SSA-MTM though.

Merry Christmas.

 I am developing my project with R. Therefore the first

 from another R user who tried to install clim-pact on
 Linux/ubuntu. AMong the other issues I do not know
 what netcdf is (he mentions this code as necessary
 for clim-pact).

I installed netcdf in R for a project six months ago, I also tried the package 
you mention 5 minutes ago (I found it named 'cim.pact'); it compiles and 
loads fine on my system. You'll need the netcdf and netcdf-devel RPM packages 
installed from the software manager(YAST), then install the clim.pact R 
package (install.packages(clim.pact) from the R prompt as root, R should 
handle the dependencies automatically). If you meet any difficulties, feel 
free to ask for further instructions.

 I will contact the authour of the package that should
 run outside R ... if the library problem has a
 solution.

Depending on the size of your dataset, the number of calculations your project 
requires and the libraries you configured R to operate with (ATLAS, BLAS, 
LAPACK or none of them), the SSA-MTM program might prove faster than R. Even 
then I would prefer R, as it's extremely flexible. You may, of course, try 
the file I posted previously, as a quick and dirty solution.

 But a Linux repository contains a lot of netcdf files.

The RPM packages are libnetcdf-4, libnetcdf-devel and netcdf, all of which may 
be found in the main opensuse 10.3 repository (try this: 
http://software.opensuse.org/search?p=1q=netcdfbaseproject=openSUSE%3A10.3 
for one-click installation).

 I do not know which ones are appropriate for my SuSE
 10.3 64-bit architecture.

One-click installation should handle this for you, otherwise select the x86_64 
packages.

Merry Christmas.

 Sorry, Randall, it does - this has happened on at least two 10.2 machines

 new one is created seems to get kicker working normally again.

 To the OP, the easiest way to deal with this (without moving your .kde
 folder, which means re-entering all your user data) is to go to
 ~/.kde/Autostart, and run:
 ln -s /opt/kde3/bin/kicker kicker
 That will mean that kicker gets started independently each time the desktop
 launches.

This once happened on my opensuse 10.2 machine. It was caused by a .desktop 
file in the .kde directory; if I remember correctly it was kcmkicker.desktop 
and contained only 2 lines without an Exec line, which caused kicker not to 
launch when logging in.

I hope this helps.
