I just installed 11.4 x86_64. Using FF beta 4, I can get to the Main Page - openSUSE and log in there, but when going to the forums, it doesn't recongnize my login and I cannot log in through the link.
I wonder why FF4 Beta is the default install for 11.4.
I setup my evolution to get this forums news. (eg. threads and posts). However, I can't get them because it give me this: I keep entering my forum password over and over again but I can't authenticate :S And you might also need to check these: [URL]
I just tried upgrading to the Natty beta. I am having a problem logging in now. When I boot up I get to the GDM login window and try to log in. Then I get an error message that says: Failed to load session "ubuntu" And then I click log out and it just states me back to the login screen. There is no menu to select sessions or anything on the login screen, just the shutdown menu and the clock.
--Edit-- I fixed part of the problem and I can access my sessions now. I can log in using GnomeShell, but any of the other options result in "failed to load session 'ubuntu'" or "failed to load session 'gnome-classic'". I'm getting the feeling something is broken with Gnome, but I don't know what.
i have installed Ubuntu 11.04 beta release 64 bit and frequently updating with latest updates(allmost all). now i'm having some problem, while i'm login to GUI interface it shows a blank screen(seems logging) and in the next screen it shows login screen again.(Immediate logout). i found some messages from syslog like below:
acpid: client 2889[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client 2889[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client connected from 3034[0:0]
I just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 beta and now I get the login screen - but after logging in, all I get is a blank screen with a black bar on top showing just the time on the top right hand corner. If I CTRL+ALT+F1 and reboot using the command line, it restarts showing mythbuntu on shutdown. Im have nVidia GEForce 8600 - is this due the X crashing? I tried all these - no change
I am trying to use Skype beta on my acer aspire one with ubuntu 10.10. The video runs brilliantly and i can also here my wife from the other end but she cannot hear me. Apparently something is fishy with my mic input. I tried alsamixer and everything is in unmute. My alsa version is 1.0.23. The only think she hears is a loud hissing noise which is normally my bat voice but she doesnt need to know that. I can record my voice in the sound recorder but nothing comes out in Skype!
April 8th, 2010 - Beta 2 release; April 22nd, 2010 - Release Candidate; April 29th, 2010 - Final release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
If I have 10.04 beta 1, could I just continue to update and not have to burn another disk to install? Or do I have to burn the beta 2 and reinstall if I want it?
My update manager still says "updated 3 days ago" and no updates have come through today. Does anyone know if NBR has been automatically updated TODAY from Beta 1?
I've noticed that some users post here and that the forums put the little fedora icon on their post so it recognizes what distro they are running. I have a default install of Fedora 15 and all I get is a penguin for generic linux. I know in the grand scheme of things this is not important at all, however it's the little things that add up sometimes so I'd like to know how did you do it.
I am trying to install the beta of kdepim for testing. I am using the repo here
Index of /repositories/KDE:/Unstable:/SC:/kdepim45/KDE_Distro_Factory_openSUSE_11.3
I used the one click install for kdepim4 4.4.93 and it pulled in the kde distro factory 4.5.1 repo as well automatically, but when I try to install any of the beta stuff, it complains of requiring kdebase4-runtime >= 4.5.2 which doesn't exist anywhere. So do I have to test the entire kde unstable or can I just test kdepim (what i really want to do) as the post on news.kde.org indicated.
No matter which source I have for 11.2, be it CD download, Net download, or commercial DVD reprint, I get to a point in the install where I get error messages about not being able to download a repository....OR...on another machine I can install but the update applet, after installation, shows errors. When queried, it says it cannot find repositories.
On the second machine, I remove the update applet from the installation using yast and then go to zypper and zypper says it cannot find the repositories. Yet, Yast will show the repositories as being in existence.
Before installation the hard drive is wiped clean and is ready for any OS.
I've taken these same installation media to a friend, he has provided a clean drive, and the same problem occurs on his machine no matter which type of installation is tried. (We both use removeable drives - not USBs).
I try to take my errors and my usage out of the problem before I comment on an OS. But I am starting to believe that 11.2 isn't clean and the same but has been ported to 11.3.beta.
I'm attempting to learn 'processing', the language used on the Arduino but I am having a bad time finding resource because of the poorly chosen name. What I am trying to do is open a pipe to another process/program to use as input to the processing plot program I am writing. I found processing.org but that site is not very helpful. There is plenty of examples of reading from an Arduino from the serial port but I want to read from a program running on my laptop. Both the plot and data accumulator program in the same PC.
If I install flash player from yast or from "firefox plugins search", I only install version 10.0.*.*. Now I want to install version 10.1 beta. I downloaded package "flasplayer..." from adobe flash website. Then I extract it and run:
Afterward, I restart firefox and firefox requires install flashplayer . In some tutorials I see " Create symlink plugins to..." after "Install plugin ./libflashplayer.so...". In my computer I can't see this. I use opensuse 11.2 64bit. I try to install flash player 10.1 beta because I can't upload to mediafire Site. How to install 10.1 beta to solve this problem.
Suse11.4 (Celadon) Kernel Linux 2.6.37.6-0.5-desktop Gnome 2.32.1
I've just followed the instructions at SDB:Skype - openSUSE again, as before. The install didn't start automatically when the download finished so I used package installer. Skype appears to start normally, before promptly closing itself after about 3-5 seconds. When running it from terminal, I get the message:
I'm setting up Suse 11.2 on PC w/ an Nvidia GT 240. I used the 1-click installation, found it didn't work, then discovered this thread saying the 240 requires the newest beta driver, 195.30, which is not available yet in 1-click and has to be manually installed.
However, that driver is no longer available on Nvidia's download site, either through their menu or the direct link given in the forum thread:
Unix Drivers Portal Page [URL]
Nor do I see it in the Nvidia repository.
why it was removed? Is there a major problem with it? If not, any idea how I can get it?
And if I can find an install it, I assume I need to first uninstall the 1-click version?

Where to get : [URL].. The readme gives the documentation and which chips it support
Nvidia adress: [URL].. The new driver installed and no problems here this driver is better then the 260.19.04 with Sauerbraten and Nexzius a bit higher fps The readme gives all the cards for this driver to much to put here.
These forums won't let me post using an iPad. I can visit this page, no problem, but when I try to add or edit a post, it just doesn't work. The edit page appears, but when I tap in the main textarea field, nothing happens. I expect the virtual keyboard to slide into view and a cursor to appear. This does not happen. In fact, if the keyboard is visible prior to tapping in the text area, then the keyboard slides out of view when the textarea is tapped. It's kind of awkward, having to wait until I get near a desktop machine before I post anything.
MacBook Pro 5.2 running OSX 10.5 Snow Leopard Disk /dev/sda - 500 GB / 465 GiB - ATA FUJITSU MJA2500B. I formatted my existing partitions with boot camp in OSX to delegate 32 Gig to a space where I intended to install Ubuntu 10.1 along side OSX. I installed Ubuntu 10.1 and now my dual boot option has vanished and the following is what I'm getting from test disk:
[code]...
I can recover my old partition configuration and not loose any data, as the lines are blurring on the related forums for this exact situation and my desire is to not make things worse with "trial and error".
After installing 11.4/LXDE which comes with FF 4 Beta, The openSUSE Flash Plugin package was automatically installed, but doesn't seem to be installed into FF properly. When FF > Addons is opened, no Flash plugin is listed. If you then attempt to install install Flash from Adobe, Adobe doesn't seem to recognize FF 4 as a supported browser.
On top of that, if you visit the nVidia site to explore OEM display drivers, their site is Flash driven and won't permit driver searching, must less browsing and possible downloading. This was important to me to try to obtain the OEM nVidia Configuration Manager which vastly enhances display management, particularly on the somewhat lean LXDE desktop.
I installed the adobe flash player 11 beta 1 64 bits from here. Download Adobe Flash Player 11 Beta for Desktops - Adobe Labs. It seems to work well with firefox 5, but under konqueror (4.6.5 / openSUSE 11.4) I have many random nspluginviewer crashes with a Application: nspluginviewer (nspluginviewer), signal: Segmentation fault message when a page contains a flash object. This did not happen with previous versions of the plugin. Reloading the page with F5 is usually enough and everything seems to work without problems. ntil I load another page and then have another crash. In fact, the crash mostly happens when loading the page, not when the flash object is already loaded.
I need to know what commands we have people run in the terminal in order to help them troubleshoot their issue. The reason being, is I was reading a thread where someone was stating about how they had to do all this and all that from a terminal and what not and that there should be a GUI Tool.
Well I'm going to make a GUI tool that allows them to obtain all the necessary information (and fixes are possible too) to help with their issue that they're currently having. For example: I know we run lsmod for sound issues, but what other commands do you have them run to check sound, video, network, etc. It will be made in wxPython so that it can be easily sent to others. If it becomes quite useful, then maybe we could get it in the repos.
