OpenSUSE Install :: Conflict After Installing Gnome Desktop?
Mar 18, 2010
I installed Opensuse 11.2 DVD on a machine with Windows XP. During the installation I installed the KDE desktop. I had not tried out the KDE desktop. I had a Live CD with the Gnome desktop that i had tried out and liked. I think I like the Gnome desktop better. Now I would like to run both desktops. After going to the install new software and changing the view to patterns and select the "Gnome Desktop Environment" I get this error.
#### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2010-03-18 09:47:52 ####
pattern:gnome-11.2-20.22.1.i586 requires patterns-openSUSE-gnome, but this requirement cannot be provided
uninstallable providers: patterns-openSUSE-gnome-11.2-20.22.1.i586[11.2 - Main Repository (OSS)]
[code]...
I was able to install the Gnome Base system with no problems or conflicts.

I have an openSUSE 11.3 system happily running KDE 4.4.4, and want to add Gnome desktop as an option. I go into YAST->S/W Mgmt->Patterns and click on 'Gnome Desktop Environment' and get this warning - "pattern:gnome-11.3-22.1.x86_64 requires patterns-openSUSE-gnome, but this requirement cannot be provided" (screenshot here). It looks like the conflict is with patterns-openSUSE-kde4_pure, which lists the Gnome RPM and pulseaudio as conflicts.
Questions: Is this only for bookkeeping purposes, or is there really a conflict having both desktops on one system? Will I have conflicts with pulseaudio? (I know I can disable it) If I want to go ahead, should I just select deinstallation of the ..._pure RPM?

By trying to install opensuse 11.4 / 1 the installation hungsup at a late level. After rebooting the system, the configuration goes on. When finishing the installation on that way, there are no menus so you can to simply nothing. The problem of system hanging exists also with version 11.3 final release but after rebooting the configuration goes on and when finished, you have the menus.

opensuse v11.2 The Gnome help describes how to install fonts: copy the font files to </usr/share/fonts>. I have some Type1 fonts with PFB, PFM, AFM and sometimes INF face files. The only ones I see in the <Type1> directory are AFM and PFA. Which font files does Gnome actually require? Is a PFA needed? Are the font files moved/deleted from </usr/share/fonts/> after installation? Is there a more obvious way to install fonts in Gnome?

I am trying to install openSUSE 11.2 with Gnome desktop from the DVD in February's Linux Magazine which I hope guarantees a good disk. However both the live DVD and a trial full installation load to a green screen without taskbar or icons meaning I cannot run any applications or even close down. The live KDE version runs OK but I wanted Gnome because I have had problems backing up Kmail in the past. I have run version 10.3 with Gnome successfully on this computer previously.

I am trying to get OpenSUSE 11.2 working. Everytime I install it, it installs with errors but when the user I setup auto logs in to the GNOME desktop, the desktop never loads. I can get into failsafe mode sometimes. I've replaced the harddrive and installed it again = same issue. I've redownloaded and burned a different DVD, verifying the checksum, and running the "check media" option = same issue. I've done a repair install = same issue. I've removed the added Ethernet and modem cards and reinstalled = same issue. I've deleted all partitions from previous install and reinstalled = same issue. Currently, I just defraged the HDD on a windows machine and am running the install once more (one a completely different machine) but what's going on here? I need 11.2 for Clonezilla SE (not 11.3)

I`m running openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE 4.7.0 and i want to install Gnome3 as a second desktop option at login menu, for me to explore and learn. I know the Gnome 3 repo is this Index of /repositories/GNOME:/STABLE: 3.0/openSUSE_11.4 and the app`s repo exists as well Index of /repositories/GNOME: Apps/openSUSE_11.4+GNOME_STABLE_3.0 I don`t use network manager for my internet connection because i own a router and i use ifup with dhcp4. To install it i just add the repo`s and run zypper dup ? or are there any other settings to adjust so i don`t end up with a broken system(regarding to the kdm service that starts KDE, i suspect that a gdm daemon will be created as well...) ?

Im trying out popular distros running on Gnome.. to see possible installation candidate And having one problem with OpenSUSE 11.3 Gnome out of the box...I can not enable desktop effects.. it says it can not be done on my hardware configuration...My hardware: AMD Athlon 64bit 3000+, Ati Radeon X600 256MB, 2GB DDR2, 160GB HDD...In every other distro I tried from live CD.. I could enable desktop effects.Now I have tried update in that live session.. and when gone to that software application it asked and I downloaded 130Mb of software.flash player..etc... but I still did not have desktop effects... So my question is can it be done with my configuration... Works fine in ubuntu with Open drivers (radeon)...I would really like to make it possible on live CD.. because I dont wanna install and then see that I can not enable it...I know that most driver manipulations need restart.. so live session can not do that...But can you say if I could even make it happen on Raden X600? No problems in Fedora, Ubuntu...

I installed KDE from a CD. Then decided I wanted to have Gnome has an option. I installed "gnome-desktop" via software manager (as per some other instructions on the forum) but I still have no option to choose Gnome when logging in.
What all do I choose to get the complete Gnome environment? Or is it better (& easier?) to reinstall with a DVD?

I am trying to install OpenSUSE 11.3 on a Dell T3500 Desktop machine. The configuration (related to the problem) of the machine is as follows:
Intel Xeon CPU W3520, 4GB RAM
Intel 82801 SATA RAID Controller
Samsung HD161GJ 160 GB SATA,
Optiarc DVD+-RW AD-7230S
When I try to boot from the OpenSUSE 11.3 x86_64 DVD, I get a curses based screen which says, "Make sure that CD number 1 is in your drive." (with OK and Back buttons). On pressing Back and trying to install again, I get an angry red dialog, which declares, "No repository found."
I tried connecting an external USB DVD drive and then booting from it, then this problem did not come and the install went to start the GUI. But then it could not find the (rather any) hard disk!
We have a set of these identical machines and the problem is fully repeatable on all of them (I tried downloading and burning the DVD image again, that didn't help). The same machines have OpenSUSE 11.1 and 11.2 installed on them and there was no such problem installing those.

I think I made one tweak too far and as a result have lost my desktop - no top panel, launcher just a blank screen with my desktop background. I've created a new user and everything is fine under that account so I don't think it is terminal. which files I should delete/replace to restore the desktop back to it's default settings? I've deleted the .gnome2, .gconf and .gconfd folders but that has not solved the problem.

I am trying to update two 64-bit PCs from SuSE 11.1 to 11.2. Both are having the same problem: On the "Installation Settings" screen, under "Packages" is a message: "Cannot solve all conflicts. Manual intervention is required" If I click on "Packages" a dialog box opens with this message:
"problem with installed package kernel-default-base-2.6.27.29-0.1.1.x86_64". The conflict resolution is either "keep kernel-default-base-2.6.27.29-0.1.1.x86_64" or "keep kernel-default-2.6.27.29-0.2.2.x86_64"

I've just updated a server from openSuse 11.0 to 11.4 using zypper dup. The server is running apache2 with mod_python and there is a conflict with the versions of expat being used, this is causing segmentation faults in Apache and the python web pages do not load.The problem is detailed here:ModPython/Articles/ExpatCausingApacheCrash - Graham's Project WikiApache is using expat 2.0.1, and python is using 2.0.0.

I've just rented a dedicated server from [URL]
Its a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 and I want to be able to use gnome desktop environment and connect to it with NX Client from my windows 7.
I have done the basics..
update
upgrade
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment
I have done this installations a couple of times before and everytime it's been working for me.
I emailed their support about it as well.
They told me it should work by just doing these first steps, but since it didn't they asked to take a look at it. So they did.
I got this mail back from them:
It seemed that your server is missing some packages/services.
Therefore, I need to ask you first if you acknowledge the ability of being charged with the additional support fee of 37,25 Euro per 15 minutes support?
I will never pay more for 15 minutes of support then I payed for the server thats for sure..

Just did a fresh install of Kubuntu 10.04. I use Gedit as my primary text editor. When I was running 9.10, I was able to map shortcuts in Gedit for code snippets and use them without any problems. Now, in 10.04, when I map shortcuts in Gedit, as expected my WIN key is recognized as SUPER (which is how it was in 9.10). But for some reason, KDE now has that key mapped as META. Which means I can set the correct shortcut in Gedit, but can't ever use it because KDE seems to think there is no SUPER key.
I've tried every conceivable option in System Settings > Regional & Language > Keyboard Layout > Advanced > Alt/Win Key Behavior. Nothing works. I've also tried various combinations of enabling/disabling keyboard layouts altogether, and switching keyboard models. No luck so far... What's so mind-boggling is that this all worked flawlessly in 9.10. I must've screwed something up recently, but I have no idea where to look...

I've updated to Maverick and I'm running Gnome Shell at login, the version from the repos.
My problem is that Tomboy in the tray does does not list the titles of my notes. There's just the yellow note icon. The rest of the text (Synchronize, Preferences, etc) all work normally.
If I log in to the normal Ubuntu desktop, there is no problem with Tomboy.

I'm about 2 weeks working on this server to install yum : Im almost getting there, the Dependencies are reduced to 2: rpm-python and yum-fastestmirror.But installing rpm-python its driving me crazy... it keeps saying:
Code:
[root@03044f2 ~]# rpm -Uhv popt-1.10.2.3-18.el5.i386.rpm
warning: popt-1.10.2.3-18.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e8562897
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
file /usr/include/popt.h from install of popt-1.10.2.3-18.el5 conflicts with file from package popt-1.10.2-32
I found the package (popt-1.10.2-32) and it says it's already installed:
Code:
[root@03044f2 ~]# rpm -Uhv popt-1.10.2-32.i386.rpm
warning: popt-1.10.2-32.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package popt-1.10.2-32 is already installed
I don't know what to do know.. I read somethings about forcing rpm --force but I'm afraid it will trigger another error... since this is a server I prefer not to play smart with it.
