I recently installed openSuse 11.2 on my Dell 700m. Since installing I have been scouring threads, google, etc to figure out how to get USB devices to be recognized.

so i have a main drive (320gb) which currently has kubuntu 9.04 installed.i also have a side drive (60gb) on which i made a backup of all my windows files (i wanted to migrate to new windows OS but messed up, long stupid story...) and also had opensuse 11.0 installed.now when i open either 2 linux versions, the ntfs partition isnt recognised anymore.there are files on it that i need, including the iso of the windows version i want to install next to opensuse (just like my old windows version)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've installed Squeeze 2.6.32-5-amd64 on my laptop (Alienware M17X R3, Intel i7 Sandybridge, ATI Technologies Inc Broadway [ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6800 Series])The screen is 17", with maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080. After a default install of the operating system, the maximum resolution I can select is 1280 x 1024.My research so far has suggested that I need to edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and provide xorg with the necessary resolution.
Again, by default, the xorg.conf file is not created. This leads me to believe that xorg is scanning my hardware at startup and providing me with whatever it thinks is appropriate. I tried following these instructions to generate an xorg.conf file. This process created an xorg.conf file under /root/.
When I copy this xorg.conf file to /etc/X11, I get a blank (i.e. black) screen. Deleting this file restores the default resolution 1280 x 1024.This system is dual booting with Windows 7. Under windows I am able to get a 1920 x 1080 resolution, so I know my hardware is up to it.At this stage I have yet to install the drivers for the Radeon graphics card.What are my options regarding configuring xorg to give me a higher screen resolution?
I have a new F12 install, and my syslog is filling up with messages about USB. I have 2 USB devices plugged in directly to the mobo (bluetooth keyboard receiver, touchscreen), and it keeps redetecting them and then disabling the port for some reason.
A small sample of what keeps on repeating:

Code...
To find the appropriate firmware without knowing the make or brand of your wireless chip, you can use the command:
#fw-detect
But apparently debian package do not offer this useful tool, well, certainly for sidux exclusively.
Is there a package of fw-detect eventually?
on windows there are apps that detect my hardware and list the model numbers and even serial numbers.
is there an app for opensuse that will detect all my hardware and list it like this:
cpu: p4 2.8ghz serial num. 435435345
chipset: intel 243434 northbridge
ram slots: 2 ddr3
etc
etc

I have recently mounted my iPod Touch using ifuse, and it works with gtkpod and I'm very pleased about that! However, I'm interested in finding out how openSUSE recognises what devices are mounted? Because the device manager in the task bar doesn't recognise that it's mounted... Dolphin doesn't recognise it and neither does Amarok. Only gtkpod, which is good, but I want other applications to recognise it. Do I need to mount it in a specific location? Currently it's at /mnt/iPhone. Or do I need something in fstab (I'm just guessing here).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI had a small english-greek dictionary working fine with wine until the day I upgraded from 11.2 to latest opensuse version. Since then the enter key no more works (rest keys work fine). So I always have to write the word I am searching for and instead of pressing enter key use my mouse to press the find button.
It is this kind of problem that really I do not know how to try to find a solution for it. There is no error message or warning message. I have not changed anything on my computer (it is the same program running). I tried to launch winecfg but everything looks the same it was before.
OpenSUSE 11.3, Brasero 2.30.1 Brasero can't detect dvd-burner. Dialogs, that should allow burner-device selection is grayed out and contain only one option "No disc available". The device itself is known to be working. How to fix this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedStrange to me that a search only seemed to turn up some partial instructions for enabling detection of new USB devices (not discoverable in a default install) in 11.1 and no later. I assume perhaps incorrectly that things have changed since so attempted the following.
Objective: Discover an HTC G1 phone to use as a modem. So, after the phone is discoverable by SuSE the next step would be to configure the connection.
Current: It seems that this phone is listed in /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/
Attempt: I assumed incorrectly it seems that it should have been sufficient to simply create a file in the /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/ directory with the appropriate TargetVendor and TargetProduct codes as follows
Filename: 0bbr:0c01
Code:
########################################################
# HTC Android G1 Phone
DefaultVendor= 0x0bb4
DefaultProduct=0x0c01
[Code]....
I need the proper way to do this in OpenSuSE 11.3. A bonus would be if someone could verify that after the modem/phone is recognized whether the next step is to configure the device using YAST/modem.
My little 40 GiBs hdd is kind of small by current standards. When I start running out of space, I always wondered what else I could do with those hundreds of music videos? Put 'em on dvd!
But 11.3 doesn't detect the dvd-rom, much less the disc. 11.4 did and the sound was much better than with my other Linux os. How can we fix this?
I've just installed openSUSE 11.2 (with Gnome). Everything works fine except the Ipod support in Banshee (Ver. 1.6 Beta 2).
When I connect my Ipod Video 30GB to my Computer it is recognised in openSUSE and also a new Nautilus windows with the Ipod content is opened. But in Banshee there is no Ipod button or anything else which allows me to sync my music with Ipod.
I've already tried to delete the /home/{user}/.config/banshee-1 folder and installed the banshee-1-dmp-ipod package. The Ipod plugin (Ver. 1.0) is also installed in Banshee.
I recently migrated from OpenSuse 11.2 to 11.3 after doing a fresh install. I have both Firefox as well as Java installed on my system, however, Firefox fails to recognize Java. I cannot see it in the Plugins list but I know Java has been installed successfully.Moreover, I have followed the instructions mentioned at:How do I download and install Java for my Linux computer ?but I was unsuccessful.I have followed the instructions at:SDB:Installing Sun's Java on openSUSE - openSUSEto create a symbolic link, but it still doesn't work.This is so frustrating... I was able to get Java working with Firefox on 11.2 but something is going wrong when I am trying to get it working with 11.3!

I have a working installation of OpenSuse 11.2 on a 300GB eSATA drive, /dev/sdb. Note: /dev/sdb is actually an IDE drive with an eSata adapter since my mother board only has one IDE ribbon input that I use for /dev/sda and the DVDRW drive.I have a 200GB IDE drive, /dev/sda that I use as a data drive.Both drives are accessible to 11.2 and in use.I installed OpenSuse 11.3 on /dev/sda in partition sda1. The same results occur with 32 bit and 64 bit distribution. I have grub for 11.3 on the the sda1 partition and chainload to it from 11.2 grub.
The installed 11.3 system will not recognize the second drive /dev/sdb or any of its partitions. It does not show up on /var/log/messages -- it does not appear to exist.I believe this problem is with 11.3 because 11.2 recognizes both disks. Perhaps it is support of eSATA drives or the IDE to eSATA adapter that has regressed?
All I recently downloaded SuSE 11.3 but still currently running 11.2. I open brasero and try to burn a DVD but it does not recognize a blank CD/DVD in the drive. Any ideas? I have no problem with the DVD drive when I put a CD in with information it mounts right away
View 3 Replies View RelatedI totally wiped out my OSX on my Imacs, in favor of OpenSuse 11.3, and right now, while 11.3 recognizes almost everything, I am searching for a command that lists the hardware available on my Imacs. Is there such a command available, and what is it. I am trying to get 11.3 to recognize my onboard webcam.

I believe this problem is with 11.3 because 11.2 recognizes both disks. Perhaps support of eSATA drives.
I've installed OpenSUSE with both DVD and liveCD. When I'm in Open SUSE booted from the CD/DVD, my wireless usb is recognized and I can connect to the network using the icon at the bottom right bar. When I install Open SUSE to my hard drive, my wireless usb seems not to be recognized and I'm not offered to connect to a wireless network.
View 3 Replies View RelatedNew to opensuse, trying to set up cache proxy and webfilter at a highschool. I have a new install of opensuse11.2 64bit installed as server. Installed squid3 stable. Trying to configure it in yast2. Now in yast2-->networkservices-->squid I get the message squid needs to be installed, continuing with Next I get message unresolved dependencies then another that squid3 conflicts with squid-2.7. Solutions offered are deinstall squid3 or don't install squid-2. I select the latter and get messages that yast might not function etc. Isn't squid3 the newer version of squid-2? Should yast2 recognize that?

Perhaps this is sheer ignorance, but i just cant figure out which wireless chipset i´ve got. Its irrelevant to say that my wireless conection doesn´t authenticate (repeating the process without end). So this is the output of lspci:

I'm having a little problem here with my notebook: when I connect the headphone plugin in the 3.5mm output nothing happens. I mean, the sound continue to flow on the speakers as the headphone wasn't plugged in. Using Sony Vaio VGN-FW378J with openSUSE 11.1 and Banshee 1.4.3.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm using openSUSE 11.2 in my desktop pc (mb asus m4a78-em), and is the second time I deal with this problem. The first time, I simply did a format, I installed fedora and then I reinstalled opensuse (because the usb neither is detect in the installation process, in opensuse).Now, I don't want to do that again.
I just did a clean install and then I updated all packages, among them was the kernel. (Note, I SUPOSE the kernel update is the problem, but quietly can be the kde update, I don't know).The problem itself is opensuse can't detect any usb device, among then are my wireless usb kit (mouse, keyboard). Currently I only have this input device (also a usb mouse, so I can't do anything in opensuse), but I think I will have borrow a ps2 keyboard, at least.The actual kernel is 2.6.31.12-0.2. In the grub, the usb works. When the first loading screen appears, all leds are turned off.I know it is little information, but it's this I can give for now. Let me know if I should give more.
opensuse 11.3 cannot detect my wirless card.
