OpenSUSE Install :: Fake-RADI0 Detected By Yast But Not Mounted After Restart
Apr 20, 2011
I have fake(bios) raid0 with Windows XP and third non-raid hd which I wanted use to install linux to (as I read about problems with installing grub into raid0). During installation Yast had correctly detected raids and all windows partitions (basically its divided into two raids with 2 partitions of 1st and 3 on 2nd) and even proposed mounting them at /windows/c, /windows/d and so on. Now I have OpenSuse 11.4 installed, grub at /boot on sdc but to log to system I need to use installation disc (otherwise Windows starts up). What I wanted to do is follow this tutorial to add grub to Windows bootloader: Boot Multiboot openSUSE Windows (2000, XP, Vista - any mix) with Windows bootloader. Problem is after reboot partitions are not mounted (dirs exists but nothing there) so I cannot copy boot code to windows. I read that fake raid may need special drivers but when i start Yast->system->partitions it again shows everything correctly!
fragment from partitions section in Yast (I translated/removed non-important entries as I have non-English system so it may vary from what is actually in Eng version):

I've got a weird problem since the update to 11.4: every time I use a yast module (the problem occurs with all of them), when I've finished (press OK or Cancel), it relaunch the module after the work is done. For example, launch the Package Manager, choice a package to install press OK : it performs the install and then relaunch the Package Manager. If you choose to quit, it will relaunch it... The only way to stop it to kill the process (or killx).The same problem occurs with the terminal version of yast. it's linked to a config file of yast under root or something so? I haven't found such problems reported on the internet.

When I change something in network setings using yast (for example hostname) it failes to restart the network. I have to start knetworkmanager manually from the terminal. Does anyone get the same type of behaviour ? I'm attaching the relevant yast log.I'm using 11.3 KDE 4.5.4 2.6.34.7-0.5-desktop kernel.

I installed openSUSE on my notebook with an usb drive using openSUSE 11.4 KDE LIVE iso. The installation process set the name to "linux-ygrl" which I don't really like. (I probably just missed the setting during the installation.). I tried to change it through YaST -> Network -> Hostnames and I set everything where needed to the new name and restarted but the changed weren't applied. I searched the web and found out about the /etc/HOSTNAME file which still contains "linux-ygrl". Now I could change it manually but I was wondering if there is a GUI for it? (I mean, openSUSE has for alsmost everything a GUI.

I have two 150GB WD Raptors stripped in an INTEL ICH10R RAID0 array. Windows 7 is installed on it in a 100GB partition, there is a 150GB secondary partition, a 100MB system reserved partition created by Windows 7 and there is about 25GB unallocated space to install a linux distribution.My problem is the fake ICH10R RAID which does work only at the moment for me with Fedora Core 13 : Ubuntu 10.04 breaks it but i do not like FC13 very much. So i Googled and Googled for installation problems on this fakeraid and dmraid is involved there is a bug in it at least in Ubuntu 10.04 and openSUSE 11.2, with 11.3 my RAID is detected -> i have a MD RAID popup.
My question is : How to install properly 11.3 on the space left on my fake RAID array without breaking anything although i have a full backup of my system. I don't understand anything of the partitioning part of openSUSE in general. Do i must activate MD RAID, i tried once and my NTFS partitions were not displayed but RAID was detected with the correct size. I am totally lost with this installer.

The Fat32 master HDD in my Intrepid Ibex 8.04 Ubuntu PC is mounted and stays so.
I installed a second (slave) ntfs HDD into the Ubuntu PC. Each time I turn it on, the drive needs to be mounted.
What (exact steps) do I need to do so that the slave drive stays mounted after the PC is turned off.
The goal: When the PC is turned on, I'd like the slave HDD already mounted and ready to use.

I have been using YaST to install software. It has been working probably. But yesterday when I want to use it again. I can goto that SUI (blue screen) but I just can't go into the software management. and then I try the other options. None of them can't be used.

From a fresh install of OpenSuse 11.2 64 bit the default is KDE. But if you want to install both KDE and Gnome on the same machine. I got to Yast --> Patterns --> And tick Gnome Desktop Environment and Gnome Base System.
That inturn pops up with a dependency issue. That states the following:
#### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2010-02-24 13:18:37 ####
pattern:gnome-11.2-20.22.1.x86_64 requires patterns-openSUSE-gnome, but this requirement cannot be provided
uninstallable providers: patterns-openSUSE-gnome-11.3-1.1.1.i586[http-download.opensuse.org-ae9db630]

patterns-openSUSE-gnome-11.2-20.22.1.x86_64[openSUSE 11.2-0]
patterns-openSUSE-gnome-11.2-20.22.1.i586[repo-oss]
patterns-openSUSE-gnome-11.2-20.22.1.x86_64[repo-oss]
[ ] do not install pattern:gnome-11.2-20.22.1.x86_64
[ ] break gnome by ignoring some of its dependencies
[x] deinstallation of patterns-openSUSE-kde4_pure-11.3-1.1.1.x86_64
#### YaST2 conflicts list END ###
So my question is what exactly does removing and applying the Gnome pattern do. Because it seems to change alot more than just branding. It changes the default environment to GTK. How would go about reverting the pattern back to KDE after the install of all the correct Gnome Dependencies.

I can get the installation history via the command line:
Code:
rpm -qa --last | less
Is it not possible to get it from YaST in the same way as you can in Synaptic? It would not only be nice to see a basic list, but also what has been pulled in as dependencies and have it grouped by 'installation sets'. Too much to ask?

I don't know why this is happening, however, all of a sudden I am unable to install any packages (from OpenSUSE repos of course) using either Zypper from the CLI or YaST2. Every time I try and install anything, or perfom a zypper dup, I am greeted with the below error message.
Code:

I'm no stranger to OpenSUSE's package manager, however I have yet to come across this error before.

I have successfully installed debian and updated it. After few days of installation maybe around a month. I tried to install some other software from synaptic but my installation CD isn't being detected like before. What do I do? The CD can be opened etc., but its not getting mounted as /cd-rom/ which the synaptic packagemanger searches most of the time.

If you go to Vuze: The most powerful bittorrent client in the world. you'll see that you can download a tarball for linux. But, if you're like me, you'd rather get the RPG so you can use YaST to install it, allowing you to add vuze to your application launcher and desktop. After digging through google for the rare RPG files for the latest version of vuze.
Step 1: Download the swt libraries RPM here: ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/packman.i...m.6.1.i586.rpm - ( original link found on this page )
Step 2: Download the Vuze RPM here: ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/packman.i...1.1.noarch.rpm (original link found on this page)
The Vuze package needs the swt libraries pre-installed, so download that one first. In just two clicks, you'll have the latest version of Vuze installed by YaST on your system! BTW, this is my first post and first thread in these forums. I just installed SUSE on Tuesday and it's my first Linux OS I've tried.

Is it possible to configure Yast Software Manager module so that it does not completely exit when done installing a package? It get's annoying to search for a package and install it, the software manager exits, you then have to reopen it, install another etc. a few minutes later.
Seems this would be a config option, but if so I can't seem to find it.

I cannot open YaST nor 'install software' in the GUI. A new window is appears in the panel, but after 10 seconds or so it disappears. When in terminal, i can open YaST.
This happens from time to time and often after a while I can open it again in GUI (also when rebooting). It's very annoying when I want to install something and I cannot open Yast2 (I'm not familiar with terminal, so that's why i want to stay with GUI, which is KDE btw).

I have old laptop that I intend to give away to a child who's family, due to bad financial, has no means to afford it.
I'll quote Ken Starks: "A Child's Exposure to Technology Should Never Be Predicated On The Ability To Afford It"
I have installed openSUSE 11.2 with KDE (as this one works perfectly on that laptop), but I wish to put it in one of the languages (ordered by preference)
1. Serbian
2. Croatian
3. Bosnian
During and post installation there were neither of those languages available.

As I have had some problems using kpagager I've used file asociations to set yast as the default. When I download an rpm the yast icon bounces around for a while and then dies. I assume this means I need another set of yast launch instructions. Suppose I could download to a directory and set it as a repo but would rather just have it launch for rpms as it's quicker. 11.4 KDE 4.6.0

When I am closing yast, from time to time I get this error. Although something segfaults the system seems to behave normally and I do not experience other issues it seams. The error comes up in a small separate window. Yast stays operative. Should I be worried about something? What is the system complaining about actually? Although this happens quite often, it does not happen always.

I'm not talking about YaST auto-resolving dependencies for me or the auto-updater checking for patches... sometimes, when I start up the Software Management portion of YaST, there will be a package or two marked for installation. Today, for example, it wants ksshaskpass. This is 11.2 64-bit. (I know I'm bucking the trend of 11.3 questions, but I'm hoping you can overlook that.)
Is this behavior expected? I don't think I ever noticed it prior to 11.2.

After a fresh install of openSUSE-11.2 (yes, still 11.2) I noticed that the -desktop flavour of kernel is in use. All types of kernels are installed. Is there any easy way to change the kernel in use with yast? I would prefer -pae to get full use of RAM.

To fix a Windows problem with hibernation, I had to let it overwrite my MBR. I can still boot into openSUSE 11.3 thanks to a wonderful piece of freeware called Plop Boot Manager, but the GRUB menu is no longer in my MBR (obviously).How can I force a rewrite of GRUB to the MBR from YaST?

Alright so I've just reinstalled openSUSE 11.2 but apperently some stuff doesn't work the way they used to. YAST install software is incredible slow. The booting took forever when loading all the packages and now installing also takes a loong time and I have a pretty fast internet aswell.
