Suse

Three monitors
After installing openSUSE 10.3 and not getting everything working exactly right using nvidia-settings, I made some minor tweaks to xorg.conf to get a two-card four-screen layout working. nvidia-settings could get no closer than a 2x2 layout (seems it would not enable Xinerama). Here's the xorg.conf: Section "S... 1 Feb 2008 20:53

Suse 10.3, Gnome
Well, I've just finished installing and tinkering with openSUSE 10.2, onto my daughter's 5 yr. old pc.

I tried to install three other distros and all ... 1 Feb 2008 21:25

Since nobody is tackling my preceeding post, I ask if anyone has set up samba server and client and has been able to connect with a windows 2000 computer?

Hi, My wired/wireless router is a ZIO-wlb5054aip and I just bought an EDUP usb dongle for my laptop and their wireless pci card for my desktop to go with it.

krdc remote desktop not working any more
I wonder if I'm the only one who has problems with the kdrc remote desktop software since the latest kde updates on openSuSE 10.2. Rdesktop still works, but any attempt to connect to one of the Windows PCs with krdc fails. Sorry for not giving a more detailed description. kdenetwork3-vnc-3.5.5-29 kdelibs3-3.5.5-... 1 Feb 2008 00:42
