Suse

I'm glad that I waited
After reading the number of complaints about openSUSE 11.0, I believe that I made the right choice in not being one of the early adopters. Truly, I was looking forward to having new bells and whistles, but now I am glad that I did not jump in head first. There is a parallel with trying a new restaurant in a forei... 10 Jul 2008 05:10

gcc issue
More strange issues after updating 10.3 to 11.0: Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.3.1", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.3".

KDEInit could not launch 'beagled'
This message appears after the KDE desktop has started. I didn't know there was this dog's tail left between something when I removed him outadahouse a while ago. Since KDEInit can not launch 'beagled' obviously I want it to stop trying. How's that done? Vahis -- Training new things here: http://waxborg.se... 4 Jul 2008 18:12

Lexmark Printers
Hi I've been given a Lexmark Z615 USB printer. After installing it and configuring through Yast, any print jobs sent to the printer show as completed in KJobViewer but nothing prints. After googling I found a suggestion that I need specific Lexmark drivers so I installed them via Yast. I went back into the print... 4 Jul 2008 07:57

GRUB On Thumb Drive
I want to install OpenSuse 11.0 on my Windows XP box, but I don't want GRUB to change my master boot record. Can I redirect its installation to say the mbr of a thumb drive? Hopefully in that way when I want to engage GRUB all I have to do is plug in the thumb drive before I turn the machine on. I don't want... 4 Jul 2008 04:53

Amd64 machine, oss-11.0-i386, Asus(nv)card, Samsung LCD. I've been using legacy NVIDIA*.run drivers up to and including 10.3 but can't find the correct one for 11.0. The ones I've used before don't work. So I downloaded the drivers shown for 11.0 from nvidia and Yast picked nvidia-gfxG01-kmp-default-17... 5 Jul 2008 23:44

Minimum install - SLES 10
Good day, Is there a "minimum install" package list for a basic SLES 10? I've read about a selection option for what is described as a "minimum" system install, but do not see the option in my version of the software. I'd like to customize the installation of the server to include some features that I may wis... 4 Jul 2008 14:06
