Hi,
I am using Suse EL 10.2 on IBM cloud, and need to install basic packages such as gcc, zlib, etc.
Is there any official Suse 10 sources that I can use?
Thanks
I have an OpenSUSE 11.4 box with Kde 4.6. I am currently working to create a sandbox environment for the user, let's call hime bob. Bob isn't allowed to do much in the system, but I'd like to let him configure certain things in yast. I have dektop shortcuts for particular yast modules, e.g. the shortcut executes xdg-su -c "/sbin/yast2 lan" to…
<b>openSUSE Lizards:</b> "The YaST firstboot utility is a special kind of configuration workflow that can be run after the basic system is installed. It is started on the first boot of the system and guides a user through a series of steps that allow for easier configuration of their desktops."
Just got a CanonMF5880dn and cannot print to it from Suse 11.1
MacBook prints w/o issue
ping 192.168.1.103 no problem
cups sees it as Canon MF5880/MF5840 PCL at URI socket://192.168.1.103:9100
cups test print appears to submit and complete job but no action from printer
Yast also seems to install printer correctly
CQue2 also seems to…
I want to publish some software for different Linux distributions, using the regular Linux packaging formats (rpm, deb, yast, etc). My package will require a click-thru license agreement. Which Linux tools and package formats support a license in the package which is shown to the user before installing the software?
I am currently get access to a cluster of Unix machines, but they don't have the software I need (numpy, scipy, matplotlib, etc), and I have to install them by myself (I don't have the root permission, either, so commands like apt-get or yast doesn't work).
In the worst case, I have to compile them all from source. Is there any better…
Hello,
I am looking for some Linux library/programming language that can be used on a variety of Linux platforms and can operate in both textual and GUI mode interfaces.
For example YCP (the Yast programming language) will display in GUI if in Gnome/KDE environment and run in text/ncurses mode when display is not available. The…
I am trying to change IP address of a SuSE 10 machine that is running Tomcat. I need to create a shell script to do this so could not use YaST.
As some sites suggested on my Google search, I edited the files in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-* to change the IP address. After that, I restarted the network service by calling…
I installed NIS server on head node of a virtual cluster(VirtualBox). One of the node (let's say node-1) can find NIS server and work with it, but another node (node-2) just can't find the NIS server in Yast while it can ping and ssh to both head node and node-1. BTW, all the nodes are VMs, head node and node-1 are on the…
Question for anyone out there managing a network of openSUSE machines. How do you keep track of and apply updates? I know about YaST Online Update (YOU) but it seems more geared towards keeping a single machine up to date. It doesn't seem to scale well to a larger number of machines. How do you keep your machines updated?…
I have a Linux VM in Azure, created from their default image.
My problem is simply that the init script network doesn't look like to start, so dependent services (apache, postfix...) won't start.
If I run yast runlevel and try to start postfix it asks me to start network first: if I accept, network is started without…
I run openSUSE 12.2 on my ASUS N76VZ laptop. My problem is that I cannot alter the partition table of first hard disk /dev/sda1.
YaST partitioner says it's unreadable, but actually it can read it but not alter it. It doesn't tell me anything else, except that I can wipe the partition table (having to reinstall Windows…
I installed OpenSUSE 13.1 on my newly built PC, but the display is just horrible :
the edges of the screen are missing. For example, I can't see all the top part, I can barely read the date and I see "ctivities" instead of "Activities". However, when I take a screenshot everything seems to be fine (the cursor doesn't…
I have installed Apache2 (with mod_ssl enabled) on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) (patchlevel 1), using YaST. Once installed, I tested whether everything works fine so far. SSL also worked fine.
Just 'apache2ctl start' was enough to make everything working.
Then I installed mod_jk and applied the following…
VirtualBox is running in Windows 7 as the host. VirtualBox has the two modifications (one is called Guest Additions; don't remember the other). The Virtual machine has "bridged" networking selected. I have SAMBA set up (now, the problem may be here; it has been three or four years since I last did this) on the…
I just built a test server running OpenSuSE 12.1 and am trying to learn how configure sssd, but am not sure where to begin to look for why my config cannot allow me to authenticate.
server:/etc/sssd # cat sssd.conf
[sssd]
config_file_version = 2
reconnection_retries = 3
sbus_timeout = 30

Hi,
I've spent most of the day on this, and it is driving me absolutely insane. On all other Unixes I've used, this is a walk in the park, but SLES 11 has me dumbfounded.
I need to build Zope on SLES 11 64 bit:
Linux <name> 2.6.27.45-0.1-default #1 SMP 2010-02-22 16:49:47 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64…
