OpenSUSE :: Installing Maemo SDK For OSuse 11.1 I586?
Apr 14, 2010
I'm trying to install Maemo SDK with this guide: Maemo5 - openSUSE I've accepted the EULA from Nokia page and copied the returned repository url and token to /etc/apt/sources.list.
Code:deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/4b******79 nokia-binaries Ok then I try to run apt-get update... but it returns this:
Code:
# apt-get update E: Type 'deb' is not known in on line 6 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list What should I do to move along with the installation. and what is fakeroot command?
I just installed OpenSuse 11.3 (I had tried an update from 11.2, but it was clearly not working so I did a fresh installation from scratch even removing my .kde/.kde4 directories) on my Dell latitude E4300.
The X11 server (or KDE?) is clearly not working properly: 1- the display settings are never saved whatever I do (I have two screens and it goes to a stupid 1024x768 automatically although the 1900x1200 for the big screen is the "Auto" option)2- after some time, the X11 server goes mad: changing from desktop 1 to 2 etc it flashes, blinks, sometimes does not go through or goes from 1 to 2 and back. The windows are not refreshed, sometimes it goes all black or grey. to be frank this is the worst upgrade I have done in ages. Is there any reason for such crazy behaviour from x11/KDE? I have:
* OpenSuse 11.3 last update (stable) running x86_64 version * Mobile Intel Gm45 Express Chipset, mobile 4 series chipset integrated graphics controller * LCD monitor (MT291 133Ev3) + attached DELL 2408 WFP * kernel-desktop 2.6.34.7-0.3.1-x86_64, kernel-firmware 20100617-2.2-noarch
When I was in Win XP I was happy with iTunes; now in OSuse 11.2 it has been difficult to find a functional replacement for it. Banshee donwloads my video and audio podcasts but can't replay them within the program. I have to go manually (Dolphin) to the corresponding folders and replay them using mPlayer, which is not very handy / fiendly. I tried to install Miro, and so far has not worked (see post here)
With my other computermore or less the same.Its a desktop PC with an spanisch keyboard. But i thinck i picked German keyboard during installation and now it starts always with german with some sort of 5 secs delay when setting it. I have to pick spanisch and i always delete the german layout, but after some time having it running, it resets to the previusly deleted german layout.
Does anyone try to use install maemo on Fedora 13, I want to buy Nokia N900, but I want to try Maemo 5 SDK emulator firsst. I followed the steps at this site:URL...
I did an upgrade from 11.2 to 11.3 at my Dell D820 laptop. Everything is working fine except that with Networkmanager it no longer sets the default gateway received by DHCP. I do receive an IP-adress (wired/wireless, does not make a difference) but no gateway. I have tested with several networks and this problem stays...
Of course I can do it manual (adding an default gw), but facing different wired/wireless networks its very unhandy.
Under Networkmanager -> Manage Connection You can edit a connection. If you do that, under tab 'IP-address' -> Configure: Automatic (DHCP) . Below you can select option 'routes'. In this field nothing is selected (I think that is correct). It must be something simple/stupid but what?
The download page says the file openSUSE-11.4-DVD-i586 should be 4.7GB. But my download (which gives the correct checksum) is only 4.22GB. What am I missing here?
update: I guess it just meant you'd need a 4.7GB disk to burn it. Admins feel free to delete this as I'm sure it will help no one else
I have been having a recurring issue for a number of weeks now. Everytime Software Update appears it says there are updates so I click update, enter my root password and then I get this error message:
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: package postfix-2.6.1-2.1.i586 is not installed Now that package is not mentioned on the list for me to untick so I have no idea where it's coming from. It happens each time and everytime the updates don't get done. They just stay on the list and new ones keep getting added. The list is getting pritty big now
I am installing opensuse 11.3 as a text-based web server. I have installed apache2, php, php-gd, php-pear and mysql... Now, I am trying to run the installwizard.php to install this LAMP app and any php file, seems to just download, instead of 'resolve to the screen' in the browser. When I run chkconfig, and see that apache and mysql are running. I have already restarted apache, and it seems to come up okay. I have created a test index.html file, and seems to be loading fine. I have googled for this, and it doesn't seem to happen to anyone else! when I try to yum install php, it says that version php5-5.3.2-1.31.i586 is already installed.
I am using yum, on the command line. Permissions are:
A fault in my USB key killed the contents of the /boot partition. I could restore grub, and got back kernel files by extracting kernel-desktop-2.6.31.14-0.4.1.i586.rpm, but now I miss initrd! (I have currently no means to make it.)Would someone having this one be kind enough to e-mail it to me? (It's around 6 MB so it should be OK.) I'll PM you my e-mail address.
Why does it take almost 700 MB of automatic changes when trying to one-click install qinternet (223 KB?) I Got to the forum to ask this question by using rcsmpppd and then wvdial. Those programs are ok but they provide no progress bar/speed meter.
Also does anyone know why qinternet was dropped from the 11.4 - KDE distro? What a pain for us poor old 56K modem bound souls here in the sticks of Texas! Hope you meet some of you at the Texas LinuxFest, April 2,2011 at the Hilton-downtown!
I'd just installed a *nix antivirus called Avrira Antivir (from downloaded script & installation files), but it completely froze my system when I tried to start it, and the system freezes at the login screen; which is probably because I selected the option of running it automatically upon startup...So here's the deal: I know that I can run a live Linux usb to mount my current fs, then edit the file(s) that load the Avira processes on startup, but I don't know what these files are, much less which directories they are in!
i hav a system which is never connected to internet. I had installed opensuse 11.1 from dvd.But the media files r not working. I had installed gstreamer all sets. And tried to install codecs using a .ypm file i downloaded from the opensuse server but not working without internet. I can download any files in other system and copy it to my system.
I'm running 11.2 KDE 4.3.5, recently every time I've tried to use the Updater Applet I get this error after choosing to install an update: PackageKit Error internal-error: Installation aborted by user. Then I run YaST to try to manually install the update and get the following error:
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: error: package kwin-4.3.5-0.2.1.i586 is not installed. Really unsure how to fix this but it's only blocking updates/patches, I can download new programs fine.
I am new to Open Suse 11.4 in fact to Linux. I was trying to install a statistical package "pspp-0.7.8-2.1.i586.rpm" An error pops up saying "[PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.eYc5jn] Repository already exists." "failed to install file: [PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.eYc5jn] Repository already exists."
I am using Fedora 11 (2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i686.PAE). I got a patch for tpm_tis.c which a module to get my itpm working. And, for this I thought to customise the existing kernel and install new one.
So, I followed the foolowing steps:
In 'make menuconfig' , I have disabled Kernel debugging in the Kernel hacking section.
Then changed EXTRAVERSION to something like .test in Makefile
We bought a board with vortex 86x processor. we tried to install RHEL6 beta version. when we select the installation choice we were getting below error: "This kernel requires an i586 cpu, but only detected an i486 cpu. Unable to boot please use a kernel appropritate for your cpu."
We have contacted the board personal. he said(in his words)"If you need to use redhat, you have to use the config & patch file provided in the development note to develop a kernel which is suitable for redhat."
I am trying to run 'yum install cpptest.i586' to run a 32 bit application on my x86_64 fedora Virtual machine. But when I run this command, it throws an error message like 'cannot get the exclusive lock at the backend. Please close any other legacy packaging tools that may be open'. Though, I have checked that there is no other such process running by doing 'ps -ef|grep yum'. And then it goes to sleeping stat.
I have some programs, that will only install on i586 architecture (opposed to x86_64). My CPU is 64-bit architecture. Can I install FC12/11 with i586 kernel on the hardware? How? Any disadvantages except the fact that I'm supposedly not able to use the 64-bit feature of the CPU?
I have an Aldi PC with a Q8200 processor and have installed Fedora11 on this system. Regularly I get updates to install, but also updates for i586 packages, which give a conflict with the x86_64 packages already installed.Sometimes I have missed a i586 package in the update list, resulting in an error next time.Is there a script which automatically filters these i586 packages from the update list?
I have tried every conceivable install combo i have found on this and other forums, so far my lady still can't play her favorite on-line puzzle game JAVASCRIPT WILL NOT WORK!
I have gateway desktop Model # Gateway 552GE I have intsalled PCLinuxOS release 2010 (PCLinuxOS) for i586. Kernel 2.6.28.8 tex3.
I would like to install A Dell All-IN-One Printer 962. On the that soft ware, so i could print some of the instructions,how to infomation to make easier for me to learn to,how to use this OS.
yum -y localinstall --nogpgcheck tora-2.1.0-1.fc12.remi.i586.rpm (NO GO???) yum localinstall tora-2.1.0-1.fc12.remi.i586.rpm (here's the output) Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Setting up Local Package Process Cannot open file: resolvedep. Skipping.
I downloaded a live KDE-CD and will install from that on hard disk. My box has 4 GB RAM so I understand I need a *-pae kernel ("Physical Address Extension") to be able to use the memory fully.
Can I install the kernel e.g. from [URL] via YAST, or does it need other libraries / software as well and so the system becomes unstable, would anybody know?
I just did 'yum update' on my system and got a number of errors such as this one:
Code:
Updating : xfce4-settings-4.6.1-4.fc11.i586 87/184 Error unpacking rpm package xfce4-settings-4.6.1-4.fc11.i586 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/share/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/xfce4-settings.mo;4ad11889: cpio: open
Sometimes instead of "cpio: open" it was "cpio: rename". There were a total of 18 such errors. These were listed as failures in the summary at the end. I then did another "yum update" and it redid 17 of the 18 successfully. It did not redo f-spot. Here's a snippet of the summary at the end of the first update:
