OpenSUSE :: Compiling Gpointing-device-settings-1.5.1 On 11.3?
Dec 15, 2010
I am having problems with my touchpad on my dv7 notebook, that I can not resolve... so I thought it would be a good idea to update the gpointing-device-settings that came with the opensuse 11.3 repositories (version 1.3.1-1.2 too old maybe)
So I downloaded the source files but when I try to ./configure, I have some errors telling my that my gtk+ and gnome-settings-daemon versions are older (that is not true, I check them and they are newer)
Here is the ./configure output:
Code:
damususe:/home/sebadamus/Downloads/gpointing-device-settings-1.5.1 # ls
aclocal.m4 configure libgpointing-device-settings.pc.in modules
autogen.sh configure.ac ltmain.sh NEWS
ChangeLog COPYING m4 po
[Code]....
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GNOME_SETTINGS_DAEMON_CFLAGS
and GNOME_SETTINGS_DAEMON_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I am running a debian squeeze machine on a ibm t40 laptop with window maker as my window manager. I am using gpointing-device-settings as a program to get the scroll bar on my touch pad working. unfortunately, I can't get the settings to stick after i shutdown and turn on. I have to go into the program and unclick then reclick the button. i'm using version 1.3.2 (ive tried both deb and source versions). does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? and if there is any configure files that I could configure instead of having to use the gui program.

I've running ubuntu 11.04 on my samsung 900x3A notebook and have a problem using the touchpad: I've configured my touchpad using "GPointing device settings", but everytime I reboot my system I've to start "GPointing device settings" manually to apply the settings for the current session. Is there a way to do this automatically?
Secondly I've the following problem: I cannot use "click and move" with my touchpad. For example, when I try to move a window around: Normally one would click the left button, hold it and move the window via touchpad. But every time I click the left button, any other movement with my touchpad is disabled. Is there a way around this?

I want to disable the touchpad while typing on my girlfriends samsung nc10 netbook. (she always selects and deletes text accidentally.. )
I though, this would be possible with gpointing-device-settings. But there, the touchpad is not shown, only a IMPS/2Logitech wheel mouse is shown. Although there is only the touchpad and no mouse...
So how can I enable touchpad configuration there?

I've managed to install debian on an armv5 device (namely the zipit2). I've read that compiling will allow me to have a binary that's specific to my processor. Does that mean I can take ANY source code and as long as it's compiled on my zipit it will work on my zipit? for example fenec?

I am currently running slackware 12.2 on a 25 GB partition. I like to use slackbuilds, but when I try to compile larger tarballs (like abiword, or a patched version of Ghostscript as I did today) I receive an error-message: 'Not enough space left on device'. I think the size of the partition must be big enough (I never got this message when compiling with Linux From Scratch). I think it has something to do with the size of my /tmp directory, but I don't know how to fix this. Is there a way to solve the problem, so that I could be able to use slackbuild-scripts?

I have a triboot windows suse 11.3 stable and suse 11.3 factory pc, I would like to share the browsers and email settings between the suse stable and factory, I succeed with thunderbird and firefox moving the /home/.thunderbird and /home/.mozilla in an ext3 shared partition and linking these in the respecive /homes, I found that there isn't a /home/.chromium folder, I found probably /usr/lib64/chromium could be the same as /home/.mozilla for firefox, but I don't know if is secure or can damage my system to move this in a ext3 partition and then link this to the respective /usr/lib64/chromium, /usr/lib64/chromium has root owner, root group, visible and modifiable for root and only visible for group and other.

Is there a way I can save system settings and have yast revert to a config file in case I ever need to reinstall the system again? I hate having to configure the firewall, runlevels, samba shares, samba workgroup, apparmor, and all the other junk after every install. It's not like I install often, but should suse 11.5 or 12 roll out, I'd like it to be a snappy upgrade.

After cleaning up my son's Vista desktop and backing it up, I installed 11.04 alongside Vista.
Issue #1:
Using the Ubuntu Requirements Guide, which says a minimum of 5GB is needed, I went ahead and allocated 15GB, to be safe and allow for future growth. But when it boots, I get this message:
This Computer has only 244.6 MB of disk space remaining
Ubuntu confirms that the installation took up 13+GB of space. Why is this, and how do I correct it? I would be fine with deleting the partition and starting over, but do not want to damage his Vista installation.
I don't understand why these space requirements aren't explained better or even consistent between different official Ubuntu sources. Here's one for 11.04 that specifies that "You must have at least 44MB of memory and 500MB of hard disk space to perform a normal installation." Now, 'normal installation' implies to me that everything is installed, so I don't get it.
Issue #2:
When I turn on the computer or reboot, I get this floating box:
Monitor Is Working
92.5khz 58hz
Out Of Scan Range
Change PC Setting
This does not disappear until it has booted Ubuntu, so I do not get any menu to choose between Ubuntu and Vista. Why is this and what's the fix?
Issue #3:
When I plug in his USB Wireless device, the device does not light up, there is no popup box in Ubuntu, and the device does not show up in the Wireless Settings box. How do I get Ubuntu to see this device (or any newly plugged in device) so that it can look for the appropriate driver?

I'm trying to build the latest XEN 4.0.0 from the tarball in xen.org.
After resolve the dependencies, I finalled compiled the xen kernel.
But the problem, it is not making the intrd for booting (and it is not suposed to do ), it just comments the following on the README source:
Depending on your config, you may need to use 'mkinitrd' to create an initial ram disk, just like a native system e.g.
# depmod 2.6.18-xen
# mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen
[Code].......
I really want to test the pastrough and snapshot new features in XEN, since i really start to hate vmware eating all resources with more than 1 vm (I know, there is VirtualBox, but I used Vmware first since you can record videos and for portability).
I already used XEN 3.4 a lot in my own labs inside my laptop, (since I learned how to use virtual network in nat mode), and since is the default hypervisor on the job (we are migrating the lasts Vmware vms !!! cool!!! ) and I really really love XEN (is amazing, 4 vms, 1 host in a laptop turion 64 x2 with just 3GB ram!!! and my processor is not flaming!!!).

I tried to compiling a code on 32-bit OpenSuSe 11.1, but it was terminated with following error: # ***No rule to make target '/usr/lib/libGLU.a', needed by 'DXA_debug'. Stop Then I installed the freeglut-2.6.0, but there were only libGLU.so and libGLU.so.1 in /usr/lib folder. And the compiling process was terminated with the same error. Will you give me some instruction to solve this problem?

I use Workrave on Windows to make sure that I walk away from my computer every now and then, but I can't find it in openSUSE's repositories although it is available for Linux.
Then I tried compiling it from source, but I got this error...
pdedecker@linux-s6cn:~/Desktop/workrave-1.9.3> ./autogen.sh **Warning**: I am going to run `configure' with no arguments. If you wish to pass any to it, specify them on the `./autogen.sh' command line.
Running intltoolize...
Running libtoolize...
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.'.
libtoolize: copying file `./ltmain.sh'
[Code].....
Is Workrave incompatible with KDE4? Is openSUSE using a different windowing system?
I'm willing to try similar software packages if they're easier to install.

Compiling ghostscript (9.01 or older) on a SUSE-11.3 does not include the x11 devices.gs -h does not show x11, x11alpa, x11mono, etc.Compiling on an old SLES-9.3 all x11 devices are included.On the old SLES-9.3 there is a library /usr/X11R6 with subdirs lib and include.Apparently including x11 devices depends on the libraries in /usr/X11R6.Question 1: how do I compile ghostscript on suse-11.3 with x11 devices included? The option --with-x does Question 2: where can I get the appropriate /usr/X11R6 for SUSE-11.3?

I am having some issues compiling kernel modules against the pre-built OpenSUSE kernel. Whenever I compile a module and try to load it, I get something like:
Code:
insmod fs/smbfs/smbfs.ko
insmod: error inserting 'fs/smbfs/smbfs.ko': -1 Invalid module format
It doesn't actually matter what the module is, they all do the same thing. I have tried the above mentioned smbfs, I've also tried:vmware kernel module

I Currently have the problem of not being able to install xmms on suse 11.3, apparently since there's no way to install it from the packman repos because xmms claims it's missing glib 1.22 -oh yeah that one. But since it worked like a charm on 11.2 i'm just wondering if the glib, gtk, and gdk rpms will be present in the future or have i just missed something. I've tried to compile gtk 1.2 and above on 11.3 but since it is a 64bit system it do not comply with my request.Output from glib-1.2.2 and 1.2.10
Code:
checking host system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized
checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized
and what's missing for xmms
[Code]...
If anyone could give me a tip on how to compile the old 32bit gtk libs on a brand new 64bit system would be much appreciated. Or if there is an even simpler way please tell i.e if there is any repos hosting what i need. Greets

In order to configure a dual display in a fresh 11.4 installation, I am attempting to install the nVidia driver according to the instructions in SDB:NVIDIA the hard way - openSUSE. I have not previously compiled or configured a kernel so I largely followed the instructions from OpenSUSE 11.2 - How to compile a Kernel for Newbies.The currently installed kernel is 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop. The graphics card is an ASUS EN9600GSO (512MB).
In Yast, I installed gcc, make, kernel-devel (v. 2.6.37.1-1.2) and kernel-desktop-devel (v. 2.6.37.1-1.2). Per the "hard way" instructions, I did not install kernel-source.
