Suse 10.0 and MP3 support
in [Suse]
|
From: Movie Maniac on 9 Oct 2005 05:59 I've just instaled Suse 10.0. I'm shocked :) it is quite impressive, and everything is in the right place. It recognized properly even my mouse and my monitor, while suse 9.3 just said unknown logitech mouse and vesa monitor... I've got 2 questions: 1) During the installation it said that amarok had mp3 support, but it is via the helix engine. I would like to use the xine engine. Is there any chance to have it working? Or should I install the guru packages? 2) I've got some problems with kdetv tring to get my terratec cinergu 400 TV with video4linux. On suse 9.3 I solved this problems instaling the fglrx drivers from ati (wivh where included on the DVD). On 10.0 DVD I can't find this package. Any hint?

Visit the ATI website and see if there are drivers for SuSE10. -- Ruurd ..o. ...o ooo

Any hint? > > Visit the ATI website and see if there are drivers for SuSE10. On this page http://www.opensuse.org/ATI_Driver_HOWTO they say there are proper drivers for SuSE 10.0. So I followed the new HOW-TO that can be found here ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/X/ATI/ati-installer-HOWTO.html so I've built the package for 10.0 etc. but I'am still having some troubles. At a first reboot, I was not able to use my monitor at 1280x1024 @ 85 Hz, but only @ 60... Mine is a Philips 109B40, properly recognized as a PHP 109B4. I've got a radeon 9000 PRO as graphic card. After some trial and error stuff, my monitor started working @ 85Hz, as I wanted. But I notice there are problems becouse if I right click desktop and choose config desktop -> screen savers when I run an OpenGL screen saveeer for the first time it loas properly. Then, if I stop it and reload it, it does not work anymore and I get a black screen. If I close the desktop config window and reopen it again, the screen saver loadds properly. Another issue: if I run kdetv, I get a black screen, and this is a real thorn in my side. With SuSE 9.3 I only had to install the ati package that came with the SuSE dvd. what's wrong now? What do I have to do? Any hint? thanks P.S. I am using the 10.0 release that includes flash player, real player and other tools. ie not the opensource one. -- Movie Maniac http://enricofedele.kudolink.com |
