OpenSUSE :: App Windows Entirely Black When Another Already Displayed / Run Correctly More Than One?
May 17, 2011
I am using OpenSuse 11.4 (64 bits) with KDE 4.6.0. My graphic card is nVidia Ge Force 6150 LE with the nVidia proprietary 2D driver (called "nVidia" on the system information page).
A strange graphic behaviour occurs until a few days: when an application (eg Firefox) is already running and when I try to open another application (eg Thunderbird or Dolphin), the associated window is completely black except the upper bar mentioning the name of the application. It seems that this problem occurs only when an application is already running with its window displayed. It is necessary to close this application in order to run correctly another one. It is impossible to run correctly more than one application.

It seems it is not displayed correctly, it looks like a windows 98. The rest of the system is good, not if it is normal to see well. I have also seen in the progress bar.

Another thing, why the graphical installer offers me constantly installing new packages, like the three you see in the image?

Recently I installed FC 11 on my laptop. The OS is not displaying the battery status correctly in the notification area. if I remove the power cord after 100 % charging, the status remains the same even during discharging. It never informs me the correct discharge status or any warning when the battery power is critically low. This is causing unexpected shut downs and data loss to me. Is this a bug ? Do we have a solution for this. My laptop is Compaq CQ40-327TU; dual boot with Vista as alternate OS.

I quite haven't figured out exactly when this happens, but it seems it happens after I connect an external monitor after logging, instead of logging in with the monitor plugged in. What happens is that every new window including popups become black. It seems if I turn off the desktop effects it goes away. I'm using T500 with intel graphics, and tumbleweed with KDE 4.7

I have windows 7 and I'd like to install opensuse 11.3. I have tried with liveCD, live usb, live dvd, but when I click installation, it shows "kernel loading", and when it finishes the loading, all I get is a black screen. Sometimes, when I try with the live CD method it reboots and the same happens again.
In my other computer with XP installed inside, it works immediately. I have tried to change video mode to text and vesa mode, also I have typed "acpi=off noapic edd=off" in the boot options line, but it didn't worked.
The black screen appears not only for the installation option, but also when I choose boot live CD, and check installation media. By the way, I have checked the downloaded iso with md5 checker, and it's the right file.

i will occasionally open a gui program, for example an ip address calc and a dvd burning program, and the bottom of the window is cut off by the screen; the screen size is put on the most applicable, detectable screen size; on both a netbook with a small rectangular screen and an older desktop with CRT monitor that is square; i could see both of these having issues beyond my own user-stupidity, so i thought i would ask: how do i get to the bottom of the window to see very crucial info? i hover the mouse on the top until it changes to a horiz bar, but it wont drag down;
- i hover mouse on bottom but it wont change to bar/arrow;
- i hover on corners to make an angle bar/arrow but it will only resize horizontally;
- i right click the top border and hit "resize" but it will only resize horizontally;
this, as well as getting my touchpad settings to stay the same after poweroff have been the bane of my existence edit: sometimes these posts are simply echo chambers for me to listen to my own ineptitude; i found how to save the touchpad settings,re-edit: i did not actually fix the touchpad, but i have posted elsewhere so as to not cross-post.

I have installed OpenSuse 11.4, KDE 4.6. In konqueror filemanagement I don't get fileproperties when hovering over the files with the mouse. Only right click -> properties will give me the properties. Now properties are not too much a concern but it is the preview I want. Dolphin does give me properties and preview.What can I do to get fileproperties to be displayed while hovering over the files?

i have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a pre installed windows 7 system. Ubuntu is working really well but the only problem is that when I try to boot into windows,
I get the windows sign and then I get a black screen and windows does not load. It seems to be an easy problem to solve because I can actually boot windows 7 in
safe mode with no problems at all! The problem is there when I try to boot windows 7 normally. To be honest I only need windows for a project that uses MSQL server.

So i tried to install steam with wine installed and i get this error message..The file '/tmp/SteamInstall.msi' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied form an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit.

When openSUSE was installed, GRUB information was installed in the Extended partition rather than in the MBR.
I have a triple boot system: Windows XP Pro, openSUSE, and another popular distro on Linux. The other distro put GRUB info in MBR. Now when I boot up it goes to member first. If I select openSUSE, the GRUB info in the extended partion is accessed and a 2nd selection screen is displayed.
I tried reloading the GRUB data for openSUSE selceting to install it in MBR but this does not seem to work.
How do I get rid of the GRUB stuff in the extended partition so that the 2nd GRUB screen does not get displayed?

I installed Suse 11.3 a couple days ago. I have been using Ubuntu for the last 2 years and wanted to try something new. Everything has been working great so far except the widgets.
To add a widget, I click the icon on the right of the toolbar, click "Add Widget", and drag the widget to the desktop. When the widget appears it is stretched to the full width of the display and everything is scrunched vertically. A screenshot of the problem is below.

Comp Specs:

OpenSuSE 11.4

Drive Specs:
Kingston External SSD Drive 128GB
Ok, so for the last couple of weeks I have been playing with trying to configure auto-mounting my SSD drive. But it seems SO confusing trying to get this configured correctly. Between HAL, udev, autofs, automount, auto.master file, etc I feel like I am getting more confused the more I read about it.... Not really sure how these work or how they are interconnected if at all?
First: At first when I plug in my USB SSD Drive it automatically mounts to "/media/SSD" (but this is not where I want it mounted, for a few reasons). "SSD" --> is the volume label as well.
Second: Then I tried adding this line to fstab:
Code:
When I add that line I can see during the boot message/log that it is waiting for me to plug it in so that it can mount it. Which is nice but I don't always need it plugged in at that moment. Also, after adding that line, when I plug the SSD in, it no longer automatically mounts it anywhere.
Third: Then I tried using the auto.master file to automount the drive (used this tutorial to do that --> Configuring Autofs). Added the following lines to auto.master (Not at the same time though, tried each separately):
Code:
Code:
After doing the above and then restarting autofs I saw the following as the last line of the mount command (which seems VERY strange):
Code:
Which also will not allow me to umount it? Tells me it's busy.
So basically I would just like to be able to plug in the USB SSD and have it automatically mount to "/mnt/SSD". Could anybody give me a hand with this?
Also, I would LOVE to know how these things work or how they work together (HAL, udev, autofs, etc...)

Vuze downloaded an update, and now everytime I use it keeps telling me to re start for the update to have an effect. When I re start, same thing happens again tells me it needs to restart. I'm using Gnome and openSUSE 11.3. I checked older posts for a solution it seems this has happened before. Do I just wait for a new version to come out of the repos?

I have a few machines set up to run off in the corner without monitors attached. I installed 11.3 (32-bit) on a couple of them and they run fine during setup but then I move them to the corner with no monitor attached and they won't boot correctly.
By this I mean they still run some apps I setup to run automatically from daemon scripts, but I can't ping or access the machines at all. It's almost like they aren't booting all the way up. Hooking a monitor up fixes this but I don't have enough monitors to keep these hooked up like this.
I have a couple of other 11.3 systems that are setup almost the same way but I put graphics drivers on those and they work with or without monitors attached. I don't want to have to put graphics drivers on those systems.

opensuse v11.3
linux 2.6.34.8-0.2-desktop x86_64
It took me 3 tries to get is ISO image that matched the md5 checksum on the download site. At 8 - 10 hours each it was a PITA. The first simply aborted 1/3 of the way through (HTTP direct link). The second used wget, got a full file but the checksums didi not match. The magic method was Bitorrent.
All this has left me with an uneasy feeling about the contents of the DVD created from the ISO. Is there a way to test the DVD contents?

I recently installed SuSE 11.4 (kernel 2.6.37.6-0) and it all works very nicely EXCEPT for the KDM login. I am using kde 4.6.0 and have the latest updates for 11.4 installed and at install time, I left the automatic Login box checked which works ok. However, when I go to the 'Personal Settings - configure desktop' and change the Login - convenience' to UNcheck the Auto login box, it does not change the Login action - I stlll login (without a login name and password screen appearing). I have looked at the file - /usr/share/kde/config and the kdmrc file does change to read 'autologin' true (or false) when I make the changes in the configure desktop GUI, but this has no effect on my actual ability to 'login' automatically all the time!
