Hi Buriro!

If you can check I have write about this - 3 comment before you. In old version of SUSE 10.x there was a problem with wide screen resolutions. The computer geeks witch work on OpenSUSE probably are using Full screen monitors (4:3) and have no problem with this. Your Laptop Dell Inspiron 2650 have (probably have)14.1 or 15.4 wide screen resolution, and your graphic card have a problem with resolution 1280*800. Witch kind of graphic card you have? Is it Intel based or NVidia GeForce2 Go graphics with 16MB - because this card is not supported. Same for ATI X200 and X300 models.

Maybe there will be some kind of graphic corrector more advanced then RandR, because this one is bad.

Regards,
Radko

Integrated card-reader in my Asus A6 laptop is not supported by 10.x. Is there any chances that support will be included in 11.0?

About wide screen problems?

Lots of graphic carts witch can work with wide screen resolutions (specially 1440*900 and 1680*1050) have a problem with SUSE 10.2 and 10.3. This resolution very often ware not recognize by: ATI X200 & X300 and every on board graphic cards, Intel on board graphics have a big problem, after instalation we must to enter manually linemodes but not always this finish with needed results. I must say that SuSe RandR extenion is not for a big help about this job.
I really hope in new SuSe11 this problem is fixed.

Whenever I try to install OpenSUSE 11 on my PC, I get an error. It says that it didn’t find the repositories and asks me to add one. On Alpha 0 I just told the installer to check the CD for a repository named OpenSUSE, but on Alpha 2 the problem wouldn’t solve that way (wget error).

Does anybody know how to bypass that error (If this goes on I’ll switch back to Ubuntu. At least I’m sure I can even install an Alpha of it)

> I can not add the “Main Update Repository” to the list of update sources. Is anyone else encountering the same issue.

Of course, as no (test) update repository exists.

> in the widgets wizard, the “Get new widgets” button is disabled. Is it related to the above mentioned issue?

If you’re talking about KDE 4.0: it’s not implemented and the button is now removed. So no.
