| Algyz | How can I enable nvidia logo on startup? |
|---|
| tartan | Can anybody help me? |
|---|
| yaloki | Delhoumi: I didn't take it, I don't need it |
|---|
| Delhoumi | Could you tell me why? |
|---|
| yaloki | Delhoumi: because I'm good |
|---|
| yaloki | :D |
|---|
| yaloki | Delhoumi: and I have a job already |
|---|
| tartan | Algyz - Option "NoLogo" "False" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
|---|
| yaloki | Delhoumi: if you're looking for a Linux job, it can certainly help, but it's also pretty expensive |
|---|
| Algyz | First of course nvidia-xconfig |
|---|
| mmaybee | tartan |
|---|
| twkm | tartan: without any information? i cannot. |
|---|
| mmaybee | maybe can help, i've worked thru a few network issues. |
|---|
| woodefec | hi, i can see my repos when in Repo Conf in yast, but not when i enter the softwawre management |
|---|
| woodefec | how to fix that? how to rebuild all repos? |
|---|
| twkm | zypper clean, but that likely won't do anything to make them appear in sw_single. |
|---|
| tartan | Oh yes. Network is provided by wireless router with DHCP and stuff like that. All my linux/windows boxes connect fine - i just pick my ESSID in network manager or wicd and here i am. |
|---|
| tartan | I am typing from openSUSE netbook, in fact. |
|---|
| Delhoumi | yaloki : Could you tell me about such document that help to prepare this eaxm? openSUSE guides is it usefull? |
|---|
| mmaybee | i had to disable networkmanager, no DNS w/my 3g modem. |
|---|
| tacit | twkm: ah http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/?s=truecrypt-portable |
|---|
| tartan | But the main laptop connects to wireless (i can even log in to router) but would not ping anything but gateway. I guess it is nameserver or routing issue. |
|---|
| mmaybee | check /etc/resolv.conf |
|---|
| tartan | Done. Everything is commented out. |
|---|
| twkm | not good. |
|---|
| twkm | either manual, susconfig or networkmanager must put at least one nameserver line in that file or no names will resolve. |
|---|
| mmaybee | i think nm overrides it. Can't help w/nm, I don't use it. |
|---|
| tartan | One moment, i'll check out resolv.conf on working machine |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | you probably have another resolve.conf such as resolve.conf.netconfig |
|---|
| mmaybee | aerosol: yes, exactly. |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | just move the /etc/resolve.conf.netconfig to /etc/resolve.conf |
|---|
| mmaybee | the controls are in /etc/sysconfig/network/config, but making changes there gave me problems... |
|---|
| tartan | Yeah, i found it, should contain nameserver 192.168.1.1. Pretty strange - when i tried to set up connection manually i told to use gateway as nameserver. |
|---|
| twkm | nm would normally do that based on the dhcp it received. |
|---|
| tartan | Does the newly installed opensuse have wpa-supplicant, wext and dhcpcd? |
|---|
| twkm | ahh, a fresh install ... knetworkmanager is broken. update it immediately. |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | zypper dup |
|---|
| tartan | I have no bloody cat5 wires at home. Going to check out one script i had for wireless on arch. |
|---|
| twkm | if the only problem is the resolve.conf file doing what aeRoSoL said should get you going, then the updated knetworkmanager should keep things working. |
|---|
| tartan | Once i am online i remove networkmanager and install wicd on any machine that has X. Nm seems to act weird in any distro i tried with any DE. |
|---|
| mmaybee | Confess i quit trying w/nm. My connection works now, i'm happy ;) |
|---|
| tartan | Pretty strange, resolv.conf is allright now... What's wrong with nm in fresh install and what should i download to fix it? Provided that i cannot connect my laptop to network but i have a working netbook. |
|---|
| aaron__ | Hi everyone i'm in a bit of a jam just finish installing suse |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | tartan: run updates. |
|---|
| aaron__ | i was trying to run update however i'm not sure what this means DBus error : Unable to get transaction id from packagekit. |
|---|
| aaron__ | keeps popping up |
|---|
| tacit | aaron__: You can switch the backend from packagekit to zypper (you may need to install a package) |
|---|
| tacit | aaron__: In the meantime, "zypper up" will update your system. |
|---|
| tartan | I can not run updates because i have no network access on the machine that needs updates. |
|---|
| beargeist | tartan: you can switch your network to traditional ifup method in yast, which works |
|---|
|
|
| aaron__ | thanks tacit but i don't quite understand what your saying |
|---|
| tacit | aaron__: Hmm. What don't you understand? |
|---|
| aaron__ | ou can switch the backend from packagekit to zypper (you may need to install a package) |
|---|
| aaron__ | sorry but i'm brandnew to linux |
|---|
| cool | tacit: I followed your advice and made some progress. I would love, if you could help further. I posted it on forum. http://bit.ly/openkdesuse |
|---|
| AsG_ | where to find the application launcher source code ? |
|---|
| tartan | beargeist - trying it, thank you. |
|---|
| AsG_ | can anybody please tell me where to find the application launcher source code ? |
|---|
| beargeist | AsG_: "the application launcher"? what do you mean exactly? for most packages, there should be a source rpm. "zypper si <package>" will install <package>s source |
|---|
| zieglerk | when entering Yast the following error message: "Cannot deactivate all displays: at least one display must be active". |
|---|
| zieglerk | I was not even close to the displays -- I wanted to change the keyboard layout. |
|---|
| tartan | Yeah! It works! Thank you very much, dhcpcd did not work somewhy. Went for my updates. Hope there are nvidia drivers 190 there. |
|---|
| aaron__ | guess i'll figure this out some other time |
|---|
| aaron__ | back to windows lol |
|---|
| AsG_ | beargeist:i need to make the launcher point to a folder instead of a file |
|---|
| beargeist | AsG_: and you need to be more patient. repeating yourself that quickly will only antagonize us |
|---|
| beargeist | AsG_: what is "the launcher"? |
|---|
| zieglerk | Where can I activate the display? |
|---|
| cool | OpenSuse without Internet, Possible? Please guide me! http://bit.ly/openkdesuse |
|---|
| AsG_ | the create launcher facility on Gnome |
|---|
| AsG_ | sorry |
|---|
| beargeist | AsG_: sorry. i do not use gnome. |
|---|
| beargeist | which did not mean he sould leave... well... |
|---|
| mmaybee | tartan: for me, ifup/wicd is the way to go for wireless. |
|---|
| twkm | though #opensuse-gnome or a general gnome channel might be better. |
|---|
| tartan | mmaybee, i also use wicd but by default nm is installed in suse and ubuntu. In debian or arch i just run a script for wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd. |
|---|
| mmaybee | tartan: right, i should have been cleare in explaining that the 1st thing i did was disable it and use ifup,(after i gave up trying to make nm work). |
|---|
| tartan | anyway, it works now! hahaha, back to yast, goodbye, strange piece of code named knetworkmanager, wicd is coming! |
|---|
| twkm | heh. |
|---|
| tartan | Goodbye everyone, back to new SUSE, gonna install nVidia drivers. |

| octocpp | did vlc packages get downgraded in the repos? I see all avail were in red |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | octocpp: what repos? |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | vlc repos? |
|---|
| twkm | packman moved to bs and did something odd to some of their package versions and some of their repo names. |
|---|
| twkm | #packman suggested 'dup' to fix it all. (i declined) |
|---|
| Action: aeRoSoL sticks to vlc repo for vlc.... |
| szal | twkm: why? |
|---|
| octocpp | aeRoSoL: i think the packman repo |
|---|
| octocpp | i updated a week ago and i had no sound out from vlc with either the alsa out or the pulse out |
|---|
| octocpp | aeRoSoL: i wen to degrade it and wa happy to see a red on in there so i hope this ver works again |
|---|
| szal | vlc-qt-1.0.4-0.pm.1.1.i586 <- + 3 others w/ same version and pkg revision |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | you should try upgrading before downgrading. |
|---|
| octocpp | aeRoSoL: sweet, the pulse output works, i was about to flip out |
|---|
| alumno00 | Hallo. Can any tell me I is possilble to use a HDMI connection to see a video camera in a Laptop? Thanks |
|---|
| octocpp | aeRoSoL: i did upgrade, that is what broke it |

| boombatower | when using yast partitioner, I am reformating my 500GB external drive to ext4...which is recommeded partition type: MSDOS or GPT (I obviously don't care about being able to read on windows) |
|---|
| Kanerix | MSDOS |
|---|
| Kanerix | GPT is for messing with BSD partitions and the like |
|---|
| Kanerix | For linux, use MSDOS |
|---|
| Kanerix | type |
|---|
| boombatower | Kanerix: ok, thx |
|---|
| Kanerix | :) |
|---|
| feathersanddown | in wich package exist libthreadweaver.so ? |
|---|
| Kanerix | Is it possible to get a linux system to handle two routing gateways in the routing table to the same destination? |
|---|
| feathersanddown | i have a crash report with: #7 0xb549ef4c in ?? () from /usr/lib/libthreadweaver.so.4 ..... so i have to install the appropiate debug package.... |
|---|
| Kanerix | on different interfaces |
|---|
| szal | feathersanddown: zypper wp libthreadweaver.so |
|---|
| tacit | Kanerix: yes |
|---|
| Kanerix | hmm |
|---|
| szal | or, rather, libthreadweaver.so.4 |
|---|
| feathersanddown | ok... let me see..... |
|---|
| Kanerix | Here's my routing table. I have two routes to the internet, but only one works at a time. Currently it's the wlan0 route: http://pastebin.com/d5c1cc21e |
|---|
| Kanerix | What am I doing wrong? |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | Kanerix: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html#AEN258 |
|---|
| Kanerix | aeRoSoL, Hey, that seems to be what I'm looking for. Thanks! Now to see if I understand... hehe Thanks mate |
|---|
| Kanerix | Hmm if I understand this correctly, it requires them to both be static IPs? |
|---|
| Kanerix | One is static in mine, but hte other is DHCP |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | wow, you're so wrong on gpt Kanerix |
|---|
| francisco_ | Hi! I want to resize my "home" partition. I went to yast and tried to make the resize but it says that it is mounted. my question is, it's ok to unmount that partition? |
|---|
| feathersanddown | szal: ... still downloading... ;) |
|---|
| Kanerix | aeRoSoL, Well thank you for pointing it out so vividly |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | no problem :) |
|---|
| Kanerix | sarcasm |
|---|

| francisco_ | aeRoSoL: is that link for me? |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | francisco_: no. it's for whoever wants to read a little about gpt. |
|---|
| francisco_ | ok thx |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | francisco_: you can use the umount command as root to unmount a file system |

| mmaybee | seek help w/suse 11.2 problem. After reboot, 3g modem works. if cable gets disconnected, kernel selects usb0 device instead of ttyACM0. usb0 is ethernet device, uses cdc-ether module. quick fix is: modprobe -r cdc-ether; modprobe -r cdc-acm; modprobe cdc-acm, then reconnect cable. is there an easier way? |
|---|
| szal | mmaybee: non-professional assessment: sounds like a case for HAL; you could trigger a script that does these steps |
|---|
| Jetchisel | udev issue? |
|---|
| Kanerix | hotplug? |
|---|
| szal | 'hotplug' hasn't been used for quite a while, iirc |
|---|
| szal | that was before udev/hal |
|---|
| mmaybee | i'm running old way, ifup. default behavior is unwanted |
|---|
| szal | what's a 3G modem anyway? cellphone? |
|---|
| mmaybee | cellphone modem |
|---|
| szal | and why do you have Ethernet on USB? |
|---|
| beargeist | szal: we'd call it "umts" |
|---|
| mmaybee | suse 11.2 default behavior selects usb0 device, i don't want this. it doesn't happen at boot |
|---|
| Action: szal hasn't arrived in UMTS times yet ^^ |
| mosno | what's the deal, Novell? I call your Australia sales office during business hours and it goes to voicemail? |
|---|
| beargeist | mosno: and you complain in an openSUSE channel about it? we are not novell. bug them. |
|---|
| mosno | beargeist, i am trying to! |
|---|
| mosno | i only mention it here for the lulz. i know that some of you work at novell |
|---|
| twkm | szal: which? i have no idea why they suggest dup -- repo configuration is far too complex for that to be a safe response on their part. hence why i declined. |
|---|
| beargeist | possibly, but not on a sunday night/afternoon |
|---|
| feathersanddown | szal: if you are a girl, i could be give you a kiss!! thank very much for the hint! |
|---|
| feathersanddown | :D |
|---|
| szal | lol |
|---|
| Action: szal is male |
| aeRoSoL | beargeist: I think the aussies are Monday morning right now? |
|---|
| feathersanddown | a beer ? a coffee? |
|---|
| beargeist | feathersanddown: why wouldn't you kiss a guy? |
|---|
| feathersanddown | kiss only for my father ¬¬' |
|---|
| feathersanddown | :P |
|---|
| mosno | aeRoSoL, correct, it is 11:32AM here |
|---|
| beargeist | feathersanddown: though bear is better than kisses from guys...;) |
|---|
| feathersanddown | yes |
|---|
| szal | aeRoSoL: nevertheless a bit unlikely for significant Novell staff to read here though ^^ |
|---|
| octocpp | is there a problem with the amd Turion II m520 and linux that we know of ? |
|---|
| beargeist | aeRoSoL: yeah. but here it is 1.30 am and in th us it should be afternoon or s/th like that... |
|---|
| octocpp | I have a Toshiba Sat l505d-es5025 and i cant even get suse 11.2 cd to boot |
|---|
| szal | beargeist: between 16:30 and 19:30, depending on location ^^ |
|---|
| mmaybee | with 11.1, this problem did not occur. with 11.2, device is correctly identified the first time it is |
|---|
| szal | mmaybee: looked for/filed a bug already? |
|---|
| surgy | hey guys |
|---|
| surgy | kupdater is being gay |
|---|
| surgy | when i try to use yast or zypper it says that the resource is locked by the application with pid 4651 (/usr/sbin/packagekitd) |
|---|
| surgy | how do i fix this? |
|---|
| Dominian | kill 4651 as root |
|---|
| Dominian | that's how I fix it |
|---|
| BManojlovic | good night |
|---|
| szal | surgy: let the updater finish and/or disable it |
|---|
| surgy | Dominian: how do i keep it from happining in the future? |
|---|
| feathersanddown | szal: uhm...... well... your hint function, i have been installed some packages that solves the problem, but there are some libraries that don't |
|---|
| Dominian | surgy: I'm not sure what causes that to be honest, it only happens rarely for me. |
|---|
| surgy | szal: the updater crashed |
|---|
| mmaybee | plugged in. If the modem is cleanly hung up (eg, via kinternet), can reconnect OK. Problem occurs only when cable is replugged. it's my phone, too, ocassional disconnect is unavoidable. oh well, at least i have a workaround better than rebooting. |
|---|
| Jetchisel | surgy: right click on update icon and disable it |
|---|
| surgy | Jetchisel: updater crashed |
|---|
| Jetchisel | disable it |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | mmaybee: why are you not using network manager |
|---|
| surgy | oph weell ill just kill it and check back here l8r |
|---|
| mmaybee | aerosol: nm will not set dns correctly for me. connects ok, but no DNS. |
|---|
| aeRoSoL | mmaybee: have you run updates? |
|---|
| mmaybee | aerosol: yes. i even tried editing /etc/sysconfig/networg/config and changing NETCONFIG_DNS_POLICY from auto to eg, ppp* NetworkManager, which should work but doesn't. |
|---|
| mmaybee | NETWORKMANAGER="no" works, though ;) |
|---|
| surgy | ? |
|---|
| octocpp | is it normal for a laptop mounse to not work in suse 11.2? is there some mod i need to install ? |
|---|
