[opensuse-factory] Build (rpm) and older Distributions ?
Hello, can't I find the correct syntax, or is it not possible, any longer, to build a package for older distributions ? With the build from 10.3 and from Repositories (10.2) I can't build a package for SUSE 10.2. The build package looks allways for the new gcc42 and all packages from 10.3 (factory) -- mit freundlichen Grüssen / best Regards Günther J.

Re: [opensuse-factory] Update from 10/23/07 broke X-Server
Den Wednesday 24 October 2007 13:07:55 skrev Juergen Orschiedt: At least on X86-64 X-Server dies with Signal 11 after applying the mandantory updates. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=336266 I have x86_64 with nvidia-blob and xorg-update installed, and I don't have the problem. But there are two independant cases in Danish forum and usenet respectively. At least one is on intel graphics (Intel GM956 apparently), the other is also a laptop - so it's not unllikely he has Intel gfx too. It's a little sad after the amazing 10.3 release, we've managed to break X and Java for a lot people within 3 weeks.. :-( .. updating is starting to get a little scary. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is probably caused by the fact, that I used xfs as / and have no separate /boot. All my systems are configured that way, but with ext3 and reiserfs. I did have a similar problem with grub after I removed a failing IDE drive and booted off a new SATA one. I was pointed here and to the Ubuntu wiki by guys on the list http://linuxbraindump.org/2007/08/17/restoring-grub, hopefully this will provide a solution to your grub problem.

Luckily i've only had 1 problem. As for KDE 4 Beta 3, still somewhat un-usable to the normal person, I am using it on my dev box and takes alot to do things. They really need to polish it up a bit at the moment. Hopefully the RC will start bringing us a workable desktop. Ben Yes it is not easy to use yet... I will update the x-server to 7.3 later this evening... ;-) (only thing about the failing x-server to me is: i do not know how to fix it without re-installing the whole os :-( which takes me a couple of extra hours, to get everything i need downloaded and installed again.. i must learn to make a 'snapshot' of the system, kind of a ghost-image to build the system up more easy..;-) - -- Have a nice day, M9.
