OpenSUSE Install :: List Available Of Core Applications Required To Function?
Apr 9, 2010
OpenSUSE 11.2 installation DVD has many many applications that are installed by default.How can I install just the minimum for a working system. As an excercise I am trying to build a Nas system which I can install into our Windows Active Directory at work and have user access controlled via an Active Directory user group. I have no need therefore for so many of the applications available. I have tried uninstalling some applications and have managed to remove some features that I infact needed to keep.just a minor thing like the Gnome interface (gee!). Is there a list available of core applications required to function etc. that would help me to streamline my build?

I have noticed there are a lot of programs that you can download for linux, but need compiling. How do you do this? I assume you need a compiler, which one do I download? Do I need different compilers for different applications?

I've recently starting dabbling with python and gtk/cairo bindings. Can anyone point me to a quick and easy way to convert a colour value from hex (e.g. #FF8000) into the format required by the set_source_rgb function?E.g. I have this:
Code:
cr=area.window.cairo_create()
cr.set_source_rgba(0.5,0.5,0,0.8)
[code]....

Is there a programmatic way to get the list of all installed applications on Linux.
Also, how can we get the application activities in Linux OS like running applications name, time of day when they started, duration till the applications were running on system, application version etc.
Is there a way to do this in C/C++.
I am building an app that runs like a daemon and fetches the applications status and sends it to the network admin for him to monitor the application usage pattern on the user computers in the network.

I understand there is a file that stores the repositories' information, but I can't find it!Is there a way I can create a list of what applications have been installed?The idea is that if I am running a backup, finding a way to save the repository list and applications installed so if I am upgrading, or fixing a borked system by re-installing Fedora, I could copy the repo list back, and run the applications list like ode:yum install <cat apps.txt?> and get all of the applications I've installed via Yum without having to remember them all?Is there anything else, outside of /home, I should look at backing up? SELinux settings?

I largely believe the name of the program is irrelevant, but if you must know, it is Qjoypad. Anyway, I follow the instructions, but an error is returned "libXtst is required to continue with the installation". Well, I have libXtst6.

I have a command line OCR program called OCR Shop XTR (Vividata corp) that I am using on a system with a 6-core AMD chip. I changed the bios so that the 6-cores were activated, but htop shows me that while the program is running, I am only getting activity on one core (the program maxes out the one core with consistent usage between 97% and 100%).
I have read that many programs are not written to take advantage of multiple core cpu's. However, I am just hoping that there is some way to get this program to take advantage of the extra cores. Does anyone know of a way to invoke programs from the command line which would spread the workload out among additional cores?
Here is the output of uname -a:Linux linux 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2011-02-21 10:34:10 +0100 i686 athlon i386 GNU/LinuxAnd here is the output for one of the cores from cat /proc/cpuinfo:processor : 5
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 16
model : 10
model name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1100T Processor
stepping : 0

I own an Athlon II X4, with 4 physical cores, and opensuse 11.4 x86_64 is only recognizing 1 of them. Although, when i disable ACPI from the BIOS, i get all 4 cores showing on cpuinfo.
Code:
Linux version 2.6.38.4-2-desktop (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.5.1 20101208 [gcc-4_5-branch revision 167585] (SUSE Linux) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT 2011-04-26 17:30:28 +0200

Today, shortly after booting my OpenSUSE 11.3 I got this popup. [URL]. I guess it was caused by the Updater Applet when checking the repos for new updates. But what does it mean? Why do I get this now and not when adding the repo. It seems to belong to the filesystems repo and I have indeed added that some time ago (in order to install davfs2). I'm not sure what it means to accept a signature.
Normally with public key infrastructure, you need to accept other's public keys or certificates containing their public keys. And before doing so you need to verify the fingerprint, otherwise the whole procedure is useless, because it might be a fake certificate / man in the middle talking to you. Once you have accepted (trusted) the public key (or a certificate containing it), the system will check signatures for you.
So the question "do you want accept this signature" sounds weird to me. In openSUSE repos I have come across fingerprints many times before. But whenever I have searched google in order to verify the fingerprint I have not received any useful hit. I would have expected that valid keys and their fingerprints are listed on some web site. It appears there are three instances of package signing keys ... but there has not been any answer.

It's known that with previous iterations, up to and including 11.2, with certain motherboards ( I can only speak for Asus/Abit ) a quad ( or duo ) core cpu can only be installed with acpi-off or similar options; this leads to only one core running in OpenSUSE, although the board itself declares 4 cores run.And this seems to mean that various other unimportant ( for a desktop ) acpi functions are affected, including the os system clock.
Typing top or cat /proc/cpuinfo always shows only one core, and although the computer is fine, it seems a pointless state of affairs. Googling shows various suggestions, including removing acpi=off or noapic in the boot options and substituting pci=nommconf, or changing the kernel to an SMP kernel ( which is probably out-of-date as advice now ); still, I can live with it in 11.2: I just wondered if 11.3 addresses this installation problem. Or will any future editions address it ?Whilst one can live with it, the initial impossibility of installing ( with no clue as to why it shan't install ) must have put off a deal of people from even going forward with OpenSUSE ( or any similarly affected distro ).

I am trying desperatly to install boxee onto my pc Boxee - Watch Movies, TV Shows and clips from the Internet on your TV.without success.I have downloaded the source code from the site and have ran
./bootstrap
./configure
The ./configure last few lines =
checking for boost/shared_ptr.hpp... yes
checking for main in -lGL... no
configure: error: Could not find a required library. Please see the README for your platform.
I'm not sure what this lGL is referring to. The readme states that I need the below to run the configure, though that doesn't say lGL either?

all the other possibilities on this page to do an installation result with same error.Can someone have a look please? Or what can I do to add this repo? There are some dependencies that could be fixed having this repo.

I'm currently using OpenSuse 11.1 web server. This is bad since 11.1 is no longer supported. the reason why I am using it is because Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() was no longer being used. (so I was told)
That being said, is there a way to get Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() to function on the newer versions of OpenSuSE?

I just burned the iso of openSUSe 11.4 onto a dvd, and I make it through all of the installation. At the end it reboots the computer and starts in the kernel/command line or whatever you call it. I think it's kernel. Anyway, it asks for my username and password and then it says like "have fun.." () or something and then just has like my directory or whatever waiting for commands. Is there some command to start up the OS?

I've got a problem with a piece of code. Basically, I use my listRegularFiles function in two separate places in my code. The first time I run itit appears to work perfectly well. If I use it a second time, however, it blows a gasket. I'll post my code below, and if anybody has any ideas,Here's the code for listRegularFiles:

I own a MB with H55 Chipset and a Core i3 540 with openSuse 11.2.I tried kernel 2.6.32 and 2.6.34 and the newest Xorg delete the xorg.conf and got a fine picture on the screen (same with xorg.conf and device "intel") Even HD MKV is possible. But in KDE I can only open one programm. If I try to open a second programm the desktop disappear and I get the KDM screen and have to login again and the former started programm is gone. Only if I start the programms via an open Terminal window the programms will run. I tried to delete all .kde(x) directories, but it�s the same after restart.Only if I use driver "fbdev" in the xorg.conf I get no problem. But then the screen is very slow.
Code:
hwinfo --gfx

I am trying to update Flash-player and yast2-core as prompted by today's update icon.
I am now faced with a loop that goes like this:
1) click on icon
2) window pops up, "2 packages selected"
3) click on apply, subwindow pops up
4) click on continue, "waiting for authentication"
5) after minutes of waiting, click on cancel, nothing happens
6) click on icon killing subwindow
7) now back to 2)
Aborting the process, starting at 1) again, same mess
Conclusions:
a) No idea what was going on
b) Use Yast instead of clicking update icon

I have been unable to get both opensuse 11.2 and 11.3 32 bit versions work properly on my DELL Latitude E6410 laptop. With both 11.2 and 11.3 KDE Live CDs I get no graphical display when I attempt to boot into the Live system. VESA mode does not help either, only text mode works. So I installed the system in text mode but during the first boot the screen went blank again.
One peculiar thing is that 11.1 installs and boots fine, what gives? Is this even supported or I shouldn't even try to bother getting this setup to work? Has anyone been able to run opensuse 11.3 on a Core i7 integrated Intel graphics system with X system working?

I put together a step-by-step guide of how I installed openSUSE 11.1 on my ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005HA Netbook. I planned on going back and re-installing using my own guide to check for mistakes, etc. but I never seem to get around to it, so I'll just post what I have and let you guys comment if you run into issues. Side notes: This guide assumes you want to wipe out Windows XP and run only openSUSE. Sorry, I'm a Gates hater.
I still haven't figured out how to configure the function keys support for volume controls and wireless. I'm hoping the "eeepc kernel module" mentioned by malcolmlewis here: Suse on my Asus 1005HA - openSUSE Forums will do the trick.

I've been using Fedora 11 x86_64 for over a year and am about to upgrade to Fedora 13 using a genuine Fedora installation CD that I got last summer at OSCON. I've made a full system backup, but before I take the plunge I want to get a list of all installed applications. I have tons of special applications installed, many of which took tweaks to get running. Just in case something breaks so badly that I have to reinstall I want to be sure I can put everything back, even if it takes me several days work.I know I have read about utilities that will generate a list of installed apps, but I can't find any.

Is there something like GtkRecentManager that will give you a list of recently-used or most-used applications instead of files, or will GtkRecentManager give you apps too?

I am quite new to Linux and am currently running OpenSUSE 11.2.How do I install applications off the DVD?
I tried going to Yast --> add Packages Then I select the DVD. But most applications i want to install are being downloaded from online repos. Does the OpenSUSE 11.2 DVD have kernel-source?

If not, how about reducing the size of the icons for the applications window and for the panel on the left?

My list of programs under Application > Wine had become messed up, with some entries for programs that had been uninstalled in Wine. I was unable to remove these from the menu for some reason, so I removed the entire Wine category. It was not re-added upon reinstalling Wine... do I have to add it all back manually, or is there some way to have it appear as it did when originally installed?

About a month ago, I had something go very wrong in my Karmic and my account (with an encrypted home dir) was essentially inaccessible. But I was eventually able to create a new account, and retrieve all my data, but now, for some reason, I cannot edit the 'Startup Applications'.
I open its window and make any changes (which the window seems to accept), but then when I hit close, and restart it, it has been reset to everything I had set from my other account. Which makes little sense.
After that problem, I did have some trouble with permissions of certain files, and am afraid that I inadvertently gave up permissions on my startup applications, but can't imagine what I'd have to do to fix it.some guidance?
