| neildarlow | Chrysantine: worked great. i can now watch meetthegimp in kaffeine. thanks. |

| Chrysantine | ´No prob |

| szymon_g | hi |
|---|
| szymon_g | where can i download a delta between 11.3 rc1 and rc2? is it available? |
|---|
| linux_ | . |
|---|
| Chrysantine | szymon_g: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3-RC2/delta/ - DVD /biarch/nonoss deltas only. |
|---|
| linux_ | hi all, could anybody tell me how I can get enter desktop environment from command line interface? |
|---|
| szymon_g | oh, thanx Chrysantine |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: startx would start the Xorg. |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: Are you trying to get into the GUI from a livecd? |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: Please talk in public. |
|---|
| linux_ | I have only three rows : my username, current date etc... |
|---|
| linux_ | and this panel accepts only commands like cd (name of directory...) |
|---|
| linux_ | so, I use live CD now |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: So you've started the livecd and it went to text only mode? |
|---|
| linux_ | I have tried to run Xorg just now but nothing has opened yet... |
|---|
| linux_ | no, I installed opensuse locally a month ago |
|---|
| linux_ | I have used it without any issues since then |
|---|
| linux_ | today, I faced with this issue |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: Describe the issue more thoroughly. |
|---|
| linux_ | (desktop environment has not appeared but this command line interface only) so I have re-installed system but |
|---|
| linux_ | CLI has appeared again... |
|---|
| linux_ | and I can't get it disappeared |
|---|
| linux_ | should I type command 'env' |
|---|
| linux_ | and 'DESKTOP_SESSION' then? |
|---|
| linux_ | I have just found some info on net |
|---|
| linux_ | but I am not 100%ly sure that this is solution to my issue |
|---|
| Chrysantine | I have no idea what you're trying to say |
|---|
| tacit | x.org failed to load dropping him to a vt? |
|---|
| Chrysantine | Well that sounds reasonable. |
|---|
| linux_ | ... :) desktop doesn't appear |
|---|
| linux_ | only CLI at left corner above |
|---|
| linux_ | when I try to open my locally installed system |
|---|
| linux_ | I can use LINUX only from liveCD now |
|---|
| Chrysantine | linux_: Have you tried "Failsafe" mode? |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: Your x.org server failed to load. Reconfigure it. |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: log in as root and run "SaX2". Configure, test and reboot. |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: What did you do before that happened? |
|---|
| linux_ | the same screen appears in failsafe mode |
|---|
| linux_ | thanks for hint, tacit |
|---|
| linux_ | I really don't think so that I have done anything special what could cause this issue |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: What non-special thing did you do? |
|---|
| linux_ | by the way, CLI says that I am logged in with my username |
|---|
| linux_ | system has collapsed suddenly (I was surfing on net) |
|---|
| linux_ | two black rows appeared at the bottom and at the top of screen |
|---|
| linux_ | after rebooting PC, I have provided my username and pw at logging screen |
|---|
| linux_ | but it has re-appeared with empty fields again |
|---|
| linux_ | I clicked on safe entry at left bottom corner |
|---|
| linux_ | and CLI has appeared |
|---|
|
|
| linux_ | and I can't get disappeared it |
|---|
| linux_ | I'd like just to use my local system as KDE |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: Log in as root. Run SaX2 |
|---|
| linux_ | directory :\home\ my username is default in CLI |
|---|
| linux_ | can I type this command there? |
|---|
| tacit | linux_: Log in as root, not as the user. |
|---|
| linux_ | sorry for stupid question...:) but what's the command to change my user name to root? |
|---|
| yaloki | linux_: su - |
|---|
| linux_ | thanks! (I have never used CLI before, you know..) |
|---|
| yaloki | get used to it, its almighty ;D |
|---|
| tacit | A more elegant weapon... for a more civilized time. |
|---|
| linux_ | okay guys, give me a try:) |
|---|
| linux_ | I will return yet, I think:) |
|---|
| tacit | Complete your training you must. |
|---|
| linux_ | I have written down all of your hints |
|---|
| linux_ | bye (or brb?:) ) |
|---|
| Grommet | I am using 11.2 and it seems only root has permission to mount usb thumbdrives. how do I enable users to do the same? |
|---|
| Ilmehtar | its probably not a relevant question, but what GUI (if any) are you noticing this behaviour in? |
|---|
| nicklas_ | hello, can i do a package request here? |
|---|
| Ilmehtar | nicklas_: Probably not, but I'm curious, what package? :) |
|---|
| nicklas_ | Ilmehtar: pidgin-musictracker or any other plugin that works with banshee, there arent many pidgin plugins in repos |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: heyaz palOmine.. you need to dump the default device mngr plasmoid.. google it up mate.. been many mos so i cont recall steps but another put me on to it ;]] |
|---|
| Ilmehtar | nicklas_: pidgin-musictracker is already available in the BuildService |
|---|
| Ilmehtar | nicklas_: http://software.opensuse.org/search?q=pidgin-musictracker&baseproject=openSUSE:11.2 |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: that was one silly kde4 dev's misstep IMHO.. cobbling auto mounting of plugin hw / media etc.. |
|---|
| nicklas_ | Ilmehtar: ty, but why isnt it in repos? |
|---|
| nicklas_ | Ilmehtar: and will it update automatically? does one click install add repos? |
|---|
| Ilmehtar | nicklas_: well it is in A repo.. user javilete's personal one.. why clutter up the other repos for something not that highly desired? (You could always add a feature request to features.opensuse.org) . Yes, one click adds repo |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: here ye gogo pally.. ;]] http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/applications/433455-how-adjust-cd-mounting-behavior.html |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: gotit here.. huge time saver.. returns kde4 on 11.2 back to kde3's auto mounting behaviors ;]].. |

| Darryl | Is support for Subpixel Rendering integrated in 11.3 release? Or do we still need to get the subpixel-enabled freetype pkgs from repos at http://opensuse-community.org/subpixel/ (11.3 ain't there yet) ? |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, I think those repos cannot be included on the repo due to patent issues regarding TrueType |
|---|
| tian2992 | *on the distro |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: I knew there _were_ license issues (ClearType, I think), but wasn't sure they still werre in play. So we still need the 3rd party repos? |
|---|
| tech9iner | lots of info along lines of your query Darryl via our bot's factoids found by typing exactly here in channel /msg SUSEhelp search font |
|---|
| Darryl | none of which answer the question for 11.3. |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, they are due to expire on 2019 |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, http://david.freetype.org/cleartype-patents.html |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: Thanks. So for now, with 11.3, this http://opensuse-community.org/subpixel/ is the right place to source them? |
|---|
| tech9iner | lol.. .2 or .3.. info is relative |
|---|
| Darryl | Or is there somewhere elase that actually HAS the pkgs for 11.3? |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, I'm not sure, I used that repo for a while, but it broke my text rendering on 11.2 |
|---|
| tian2992 | I guess it will be updated once 11.3 comes out |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: Hm. withOUT that repo, my text rendering is broken. |
|---|
| tech9iner | did it work for u chumOmine Grommet ? |
|---|
| Grommet | nope |
|---|
| Grommet | actually I will wait until 11.3 |
|---|
| Grommet | I've heard some ppl say it works out of the box |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, I love typography but i could not make it work... |
|---|
| tian2992 | I'll give it a shot someday |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: Yeah, if was a PITA getting all the settings found and figured out. But once done really nice. |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, what sucks the most is having expensive fonts installed, but looking kinda crappy due to the engine |
|---|
| Darryl | Not quite as pretty as my MacOSX disply, but darn close. |
|---|
| tian2992 | there should be an OpenSUSE variant for countries without software patents, that would be a blast |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: Yep. I had my old, expensive, Adobe OTF font collection disk, and I was danged if I was NOT gonna get those looking good on 11.2, for the money I paid! |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, I have one by Monotype, and it works as a charm on OS X... |
|---|
| tian2992 | I still use the fonts on 11.2 as well... |
|---|
| Grommet | hey techniner do you know of a video player that supports nonlocal files? |
|---|
| Grommet | so far amarok and vlc and such do not |
|---|
| Grommet | sorry mplayer does not |
|---|
| Grommet | amarok supports nonlocal music files |
|---|
| nicklas_ | how does pidgin notification work in openSUSE? in other distros ive had to install pidgin-libnotify, but its not in opensuse repos? do i need it or is notification built in? |
|---|
| Grommet | but I can't find anything to play video files |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: indeed.. oob would be nice reversal to working order as should b again.. hehe |
|---|
| yaloki | Grommet: mplayer totally does |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: Ymmv, but it'll be worth a shot again on Opensuse. Like I said, PITA. But gorgeous, especially now that OOO fully supports OTF @ all our local webapps can display @font-face .woff variants in CSS. |
|---|
| yaloki | Grommet: and vlc too |
|---|
| Grommet | why do they say sorry only local files supported when I select one? |
|---|
| yaloki | mplayer definitely does the job when you pass it an http URL or such |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: nonlocale media?... wtf wouldnt vlc ? |
|---|
| Grommet | I dunno |
|---|
| Grommet | lemme get the exact output from vlc |
|---|
| nicklas_ | anyone using gnome and pidgin? |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, all my fonts look crappy on OO but, as soon as i print them on pdf they look as intended |
|---|
| tech9iner | rofl.. playing ketchup here.. didnt see masta yal working for you Grommet hehe |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: What version of OOO u using? |
|---|
| Grommet | vlc says "You can only select local files" |
|---|
| Grommet | in a little popup |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: i was running media thru 192.168.1.x via usb cable direct laptop to laptop few days back.. via fish:// protocol iirc |
|---|
| Grommet | mplayer just copies the entire file to a tmp directory then plays it |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, 3.1.1 |
|---|
| Grommet | which isn't the worst thing ever but it takes awhile |
|---|
| Darryl | tian2992: 3.2 branch is required for OTF support. Switch to: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/OpenOffice.org:/UNSTABLE |
|---|
| Darryl | Been using it in production for all our staff for many months now. |
|---|
| tian2992 | Grommet, what happened on VLC? |
|---|
| tian2992 | Darryl, I have a really slow internet connection, so I'd rather wait for 11.3 |
|---|
| tian2992 | thanks though |
|---|
| Darryl | np |
|---|
| tian2992 | is it possible to disable the logo of SUSE Studio on the builds? |
|---|
| Grommet | it just tells me that I must select a local file |
|---|
| tian2992 | Grommet, try on Media -> Advanced Open File |
|---|
| Grommet | I tried that I think the problem is that the computer doing the sharing is smb because in the advance select file tab it cays it can't open smb |
|---|
| Grommet | I am going to try mounting the smb to a local mountpoint |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: luck be thine lad.. ;]] |
|---|
| tech9iner | haha @ me me |
|---|
| tech9iner | forgot to asked me own question.. |
|---|
| tech9iner | everyone seeing this in their ffx and/or chrome browsers mates? http://www.netindex.com/ You need to upgrade your Flash Player |
|---|
| Grommet | I see that sometimes tech9iner |
|---|
| tian2992 | tech9iner, no problem here |
|---|
| tech9iner | tian2992: page fully loads and no such 'needed upgrade' line found? |
|---|
| Grommet | tech9iner: I had to switch to 32 bit flash and the wrapper thingie to make that stop |
|---|
| Grommet | also my flash works better this way |
|---|
| tech9iner | 11.2 is all flash current here |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: ill look into it tx |
|---|
| Shamoun | hey guys |
|---|
| Grommet | tech9iner: are you using 64 bit? |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: yes |
|---|
| tian2992 | tech9iner, yep, no problem in here |
|---|
| tech9iner | Grommet: well.. 2 b clear as muddd... actually im running 64bit 11.2 yes.. but flash specific its wtf ever my daily zypper dup defaults too here |
|---|
| Grommet | yep you got the same prob I had hold on lemme see |
|---|
| Grommet | and mounting the smb as a dir worked :) |
|---|
| Grommet | I did this command after removing the 64 bit flash, tech9iner |
|---|
| Grommet | zypper in flash-player nspluginwrapper |
|---|
| Grommet | after that flash was good again |
|---|
| Grommet | hehe |
|---|

| Fede | whenever I'm required to surf the Internet from a cyber-cafe I wish I had the privacy I get when I surf from home. Depending on the situation I'm able to use OpenVPN or Squid but some times firewalls prevent this from happening. So I was wondering, is there any java web browser which I could run on my local server (maybe Apache) and which could be configured to connect to the internet from my home connection? |
|---|
| Dominian | er |
|---|
| Fede | is that a no? Dominian |
|---|
| Dominian | Fede: install squid at home, run on local port of machine at home, use ssh tunneling to setup a port onyour local machine and forward it via ssh to your home machine, setup your browser to use that as a proxy |
|---|
| Fede | yeah, that is, assuming I can change the proxy configuration on the browser. What if I can't? Some cyber-cafes are very irritating |
|---|
| Dominian | I always have my laptop with me |
|---|
| Dominian | so not sure.. neve rused a cyber cafe PC |
|---|
| Fede | I saw a few java web browsers, I wonder if one of those could be configured to do what I want |
|---|
| tpadmin | My / is filling up, is there anything I can safely delete to free up room? (OpenSUSE 11.2, if it matters) |
