OpenSUSE :: 11.3 Wine And Derivatives Freeze And Cause KDE Display Change
Nov 7, 2010
Since opensuse 11.3 I can't use wine properly again: picasa (built-in wine) and crossover office will both extremely slow down my desktop, even if the wine-application will launch in slowmotion. Along with this issue, there is often a KDE box appearing with the announcement that display-settings have changed. These will appear in mass and overlap (from 6 to 70 message boxes). There is clearly a big issue with the last openSUSE. Is it already known? How to fix it?

I know that you can select from a list, groups from plasma "search & launch" - but is it possible to create and add other groups. Also is it possible to change the kmail at the top of the display to thunderbird, which I use.

I'm using OpenSUSE as a guest OS in VMware. Display settings are 1400x1050@60Hz but I want to change them for 1440x900. Using root account I go to Configure Desktop -> Display -> 1440x900. The first problem is that I can't choose 60Hz, only "Auto" or "0.0". I click Apply and the resolution changes, but if I reboot the computer or just logoff... resolution goes back to 1400x1050. My card and monitor properties: [URL]. Another strange thing is that if I click Ok on the Card and Monitor properties (changing from one resolution to another), I can choose to "Test" it, and xfine2 appears but... it ALWAYS says "1400x1050". An screenshoot of xfine2: [URL].

I don't know if it's just my system, but after applying the latest Wine update, the mouse cursor in Wine windows is now purple/magenta/pink, whatever. Not a big problem, just annoying. I've looked through the various config files in ~home and /usr/share/wine, and can't find any parameter that might even remotely address this.

I'm installing a program in WINE that requires more than 1 CD. I used wine eject to unmount the first one, and now ubuntu wont read the second one. No errors or anything, the drive just spins for a bit, then stops, and then the icon for the second cd doesn't appear, and I still have this wonderful message "Please insert disk number 2".

I have a SATA internal hard disk and a USB external hard disk, both with several partitions) plus two USB flash sticks and a multicard reader. When I boot Ubuntu (or any distribution based on it) the internal disk partitions can be /dev/sdan, /dev/sdbn or even on one occasion /dev/sdhn. This caused me some problems with my /etc/fstab file and swap partitions, which I have now largely solved by using disk and swap labels.

I am trying to figure out how to change the permissions on Wine, so that the only thing the users on this computer can do is access the programs on Wine that are already installed. Here's what I did already:
- Accessed Home Folder
- Accessed 'Hidden' folder called '.wine'
- Right Clicked on 'dosdevices' and changed permissions to 'Access Only'
- Right Clicked on 'drive_c' and changed permissions to 'Access Only'
Now I need to know how to set these permissions in order to lock them permanently. Keep in mind that I am a newbie and may not understand in depth lingo regarding the terminal.

I have a fresh install of OpenSUSE 11.4 64bit and I have installed the AMD Display drivers for my Radeon HD 5970. Everything seems to be working quite well. I have a multiple monitor setup (1280x1024 monitor and a 1920x1080 monitor).
I have my primary display set to 1920x1080, however when I try to enable the second display, I get a CRTC error that the display is over the maximum (1920x1920). If I enable both monitors at lower resolutions, there is no problem.
I have done a fair bit of reading and have been unable to determine where this maximum is set, or how to change it. I'd like to be able to run both monitors at their native resolutions.

I'm fed up of the crappy low-res Spotify icon that i have in my systray and taskbar, so I have found a really nice replacement. Unfortunately I can't work out how to change the icon. I can change the icon in the menu by changing the .desktop file, but how do I change the others, the ones which I believe are controlled by wine?I'm running debian with xfce, and I run Spotify through wine.

I'm experiencing random lockups. There are 2 types.1st time this happened when I enabled Kwin compositing effects. The screen turned black and it froze, the mouse pointer froze. Nothing would move. 5 Minutes later I just hard reset the Laptop. I was afraid something could be corrupted as it was shutdown in a bad way. On boot up Kwin's compositing effects were in place.Randomly working on the laptop, everything will freeze except the mouse pointer. This happens like once in a while though.I have a feeling this has something to do with my Dell Studio 1555 Intel GM4500 MHD graphics.

admit I don't know everything and right now I am at my wit's end trying to figure out this one.The system is: F13 x86_64; GNOME (compiz turned off); wine-1.1.38-1.fc13.i686 and nvidia er from RPM Fusion xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-195.36.24-1.fc13.x86_64The problem is: When I run a fullscreen app in Wine, switch virtual desktops and switch back, the fullscreen app has shrunk. This did not occur on F12 prior to upgrading to F13.The app itself seems to have not noticed it was resized; on checking its configuration panel it seems to still think it's running full screen.What I want to know is whether the problem is in Wine, the video driver, or the window manager, or somewhere else, so that I can report it to the right people (or just fix it).

I installed on Aspire One Maverick and then Wine and then Ulead Video Studio. Now Ulead doesn't work, because it need 1024x768, and Aspire One is limited to 1024x600. I tried to install Xrandr and change the resolution of the external monitor to 1680x1050, but the problem still remain.

I'm trying to install (L)ubuntu on an old AMD 1.66GHz based HP laptop, to dual boot with Windows XP. However I'm running into an issue that I haven't come across on any other machine before where after selecting "Install Lubuntu" from the main boot menu, it moves to the scrolling dots splash/loading screen and after ~30 sec or a minute it freezes. There is no error, it doesn't reboot or eject the disk even after several hours of sitting on that splash screen, with the dots frozen, no CD activity, and no HDD activity. I get the same result if I try to boot it as a LiveCD as well.
Can someone help diagnose whats going on? Is it possible changing some boot options will allow it to install? I'm not quite sure where to go with this one.

I received Ubuntu 10.10 (a friend gave me the cd) Well, I installed, but I can't change the display settings: the maximum it gives is 900x600 So, I went online and looked for a fix.. I found this:
Code:
Sudo dpkg-reconfigure x server-xorg
Well, the problem is that according to the steps that the person who posted the code, I should type this code after executing Terminal before computer boots. and the way to execute Terminal is to have the key: escape holded Well, I do hold the key: escape. but I see no terminal! I have typed in normal mode...but, I guess the code only works before boot up. How can I execute terminal? is there any other way to fix the display settings? I currently have Windows Xp and Ubuntu.... and I have no problem with the display settings on Xp Can I do do from recovery mode?
Because I have 2 operating systems I get a screen like this (except mine is ubuntu 10.10) If I do it from the recovery mode.... would the code works?

Here are my repos:
[Code]...
Since I use this for work, I don't want the DE to get unstable with updates, but want to do other updates like security updates. Should I disable the KDE Factory Desktop repos? How can I work this so everything updates without taking my KDE into 4.4.1 beta? I ask because I'm not sure yet what comes down through OSS, NON OSS, and Updates repos....or, if I can only do those. I'm just trying to make it dummy proof..I don't tend to break things in linux
