pedro on "openSUSE Weekly News, Issue 12": Anyway, kopete still doesn't connect to msn, i can't tell why, and i can't find answers yet. Hope i could do more. Please, don't fight, and do a more constructive discussion.
arbiter on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Hi everyone! For the first look, 11.0 is nice work, finally my 3G mobile adapter works fine. But as always, I have a problem: I have a Thinkpad T61 (8898-55G), did a default install with GNOME, and no sound comes from my speakers. No MP3 sound, no system sound, nothing... any ideas?
bruno on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Sorry, urgly color combination and to dark to me. What are the files/file locations, so that I can change it?
Luck3r on "openSUSE Weekly News, Issue 21": Works for me.
Mani on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Not to press ESC while it is booting. Very first screen when you see the boot options like "OpenSuse 11.0", "Local disk", "memory test", press Escape there and OK for text based boot of grub, then you can see all console messages without the GUI. Check tomorrow's beta 3 version if that helps, if not, try the above.
kevin on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Will subpixel font rendering be included in this release. Will firefox fonts use it?
snakeeyes on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": I can't wait for openSUSE 11.0, it looks awesome. Kde 4 + new look + fast package management is cool!
Albertop on "People of openSUSE: Marcus Hüwe": Nice interview! Keep up with your great work.
andrew on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": using the latest beta build from NVIDIA worked for me, but the stable release did not.
Cristian Rodriguez on "People of openSUSE: Marcus Hüwe": Marcus : Thanks for your continued support to the project, I really appreciate your work. keep up !!
Dow Hurst on "People of openSUSE: Marcus Hüwe": Markus, As part of the Packman team you make a great contribution to the overall usefulness of OpenSuSE. Since packman has the main MPlayer packages and a while back even had the libdvdcss2 package, how do you feel about DRM issues? Also, do you think enough people that use OpenSuSE contribute enough money back to the Packman team for bandwidth and equipment? I just noticed the packman.unixheads.org site had a need for equipment so it was possible to
greenmachine on "People of openSUSE: Marcus Hüwe": Unreal Tournament was/is my favorite FPS.
Joachim Mairböck on "openSUSE Weekly News, Issue 21": For me exactly the same version worked perfectly.
superppl on "People of openSUSE: Marcus Hüwe": Finally someone around my age. You sir are a year and a bit older than me.
Powr Haus on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Real nice so far, but am disappointed that you still don't support the NVidia 8800GTX. This card has been out for more than a year, yet 3D options are still unavailable. Any chance you'll actually support decent video cards for 3D (Compiz)?
pete on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": i tried the beta 2 gnome livecd yesterday , and the desktop looks very sexy so to say (but why use the old gnome icons on the desktop , when u have such wonderful icons inside ?) i wanted to play around with it , but it was so full of bugs . it was bearly useable . i reported all the bugs i came across . i will test beta 3 in a few days , and i hope all those
Livio on "Hard Disk Configuration Survey": Fedora did no surveys, so I did this one and will every another
.Peter on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": I spoke/wrote too soon, it seems that one can directly edit from the tab view. Old habits die hard.
Disregard previous comment.
CheersPeter on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": It would be good if a previous function (ability to directly open a file being viewed in a tab, e.g. fstab or xorg.conf, with a text editor - by right-click mouse options) in Konqueror was restored. Cheers
ACTPOHABT on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": As Patrick said, when you try to hit ESC to see details of boot but it hangs and then reboots after a minute.
Mani on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": The installer uses standard grub utility. Press Escape to come out of the GUI to standard text based menu, enter at the debug, see what it tells on the screen.
Mani on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": there are already many system rescue utilities there ( trinityhome.org or www.sysresccd.org ) - cd or usb bootable. But suse got documentation for installation in to USB drive as well, complete install to a flash drive.
Michael on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Well, exept the trouble with nvidia-gfx for X, it works for me as a desktop. For my devel-machine I'll wait for 11.0-GM, as I'm still missing my usual additional packages, normaly on packman and / or OSB, -- the 11.0alpha and 11.0beta1 wheren't 'stable' enough to get a good and solid build on them, but with beta2 it's much better. Optical, its nice, real nice, Yast has a "rounder" feel at use, an even the ncurses-Yast is not as "blocky" as befor. All in
Brian on "Hard Disk Configuration Survey": I gave up when it would not accept 'Other' as an answer
Brian on "Hard Disk Configuration Survey": I gave up when survey would not accept 'Other' as an answer
ACTPOHABT on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Same story here. I wonder how do we report this bug?
Dow Hurst on "People of openSUSE: Greg Kroah-Hartman": Greg, I am curious about what you think about a joint Nobel prize for the Linux kernel developers? It is certainly one of the great contributions to the world. It could be compared to a medicine such as penicillin, or a great work of art. However it may be interpreted, it certainly is a creation that inspires charity and gets useful work done. I've thought that maybe one day Dr. Torvalds would be nominated, hopefully within his
Wjohnk on "openSUSE Weekly News, Issue 21": The hard disk partitioning survey cannot be accessed using Konqueror 3.5.7 (using KDE 3.5.7 "release 72.9" openSUSE 10.3.) It can be accessed using Firefox.
Patrick on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": I can't start the live cd either. I try to hit ESC to see details of boot but it hangs and then reboots after a minute it seems.
Greg KH on "People of openSUSE: Greg Kroah-Hartman": Report it on the developer page for the project. So, for opensuse issues, on http://bugzilla.kernel.org/ is a great place to start.
ACTPOHABT on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": For some reason I can't even start the LiveCD. 10.3 works fine.
Ryan on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Thanks for documenting that because I don't know anything about kiwi. I'm thinking about making a system rescue style flash drive using openSUSE and maybe save it as an ISO for safe keeping. Don't know what capacity it will require, just want to include some version of parted, file system utilities, and enough space to make a backup.
Desmond Haynes, Jr. on "Blogging Platform for openSUSE Launched": I meant "to be *on* openSUSE"? http://techwatch.reviewk.com/2008/05/coming-along-strong-first-look-at-opensuse-11-beta/
Desmond Haynes, Jr. on "Blogging Platform for openSUSE Launched": Does it necessarily have to be 100% openSUSE?
Mani on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": I posted a procedure on suse forum how to make opensuse 11 live USB drive from windows without burning to CD media. Check it out http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=49726
Chuck Taylor on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Sorry took so long to reply. Was setting up / playing with the new Beta2. Yes I realize that this "new" desktop is part of the plasma world but I can not find anything there either. I'm either looking in the wrong places or using the wrong words. All I would like is a description / explanation of the ops for this KDE4 desktop. Like why there is a halo around the icons. Perhaps there is something somewhere. Yes
Cosmology on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": This is for RJ, I had no intention to offend you or any other Americans in making a comment about American big business, I view people and corporations quite differently. I have US friends and I find them to be some of the least arrogant or rude people that I have known, I actually wish that some in my country would learn from their example. Quite a few of my US friends share the "world" view about greedy corporations. I
apokryphos on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Please just file a bug report as described on bugs.opensuse.org -- the comment section of the news website is hardly the best place to report stuff like that if you actually want it to get fixed.
james on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": Hi Beta 1 and Beaa 2 will not install on my amd6400 + M61P-S3 motherboard. However they will install on my 2 Itel core 2 Laptops
R. J. on "Announcing openSUSE 11.0 Beta 2": When you buy openSUSE you get manuals, support etc, you can read about it here http://en.opensuse.org/Buy_openSUSE
