From: nomail-nospam on 20 Jan 2008 21:23 hal 32/64 bit oss-10.3.x86_64 on AMD-64 box While upgrading openSUSE-10.3-64bit to the latest "hal" package hal-0.5.10_git20071212-10.2.x86_64 Yast issued a dependency conflict to the effect that some programs require the 32 bit version of hal. I thought this might mean the latest i586 package which would be hal-0.5.10_git20071212-10.3.i586 Trying to upgrade "hal" to this produces a long list of conflicts. Meanwhile there IS a "hal-32bit" package in the distribution hal-32bit-0.5.9_git20070831-13.x86_64 which IS installed i.e. no grounds for any conflict. I'm a little confused.

When I did an Online Update yesterday, it also auto-selected the 32-bit version of hal. But there were no conflicts. It installed without any problems. So the problem you have is not "normal".

See my other post. Basically I'm trying anything I can find to recover the ability to move pictures from my usb camera to disk. I even went back to my archived initial install image and it doesn't work on there either. Looks like upgrading to 10.3 or the concurrent migration to 64-bit has something to do with it. I just mounted it manually mount /dev/sdb1 /home/shared/sdb1 that at least takes the pressure off. http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=39451 "Using 10.3 64bit and have a problem with usb sticks.
