OpenSUSE :: LDXE Pcmanfm Superuser Doesn't Work With 11.4
Jun 11, 2011
The root password is accepted by yast and the lxde login manager, but not the super user version of the pcmanfm file manager. The user pcmanfm icon in tthe lxde control center works OK.
From the lxde control center the superuser icon gives "permission denied" and reverts to the user version. Invoking pcmanfm from a su root shell gets 3 paragraphs of output referencing this error:
a** (pcmanfm:8870): DEBUG: FmJob error: Permission deniedll:
I used the yast SW Manger to update pcmanfm with no change.
If there is interest here, I can insert these 3 paragraphs. I have the stock 11.4 kernel 2.6.37.6-0.5-default.

Im comming from ubuntu/mint and one of the things I got used too was doing something like "sudo nautilus" or "sudo gedit" and similar things. In Suse 11.3 I always get errors like the following
(gedit:6115): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
kate: cannot connect to X server
Could not parse arguments: Cannot open display:
or similar variations of these.What can I so to prevent this from happening? even if I do "su" and try from there it doesnt always work.I like Suse as it feels more professional then ubuntu, but I am trying to make it as user friendly.

I can't open files with anything using Dolphin as superuser. For example with Kate:
Code:
KDEinit cannot launch /usr/bin/kate
Also, I can't launch kwrite or kate as root per below:
Code:
john@vostro:~> su
Password:
vostro:/home/john # kate
kate(3007): Session bus not found
[Code]....

I have installed OpenSUSE 11.4 using the Gnome Live USB version, and I have updated to Gnome 3.I use a USB CDMA modem which is not detected automatically (it never did).after reading a lot of forums regarding similar issues I have been able to solve my problem, I have to run this script after login, modprobe usbserial vendor=0X05c6 product=0x00a0as RootI was wondering is there anyway that this script runs automatically at start up.

I've got a triple boot system here (W7,XP,OpenSUSE 11.1). Several windows partitions are mounted as part of the standard opensuse install. I can write to them from opensuse only when I am superuser. I suspect I need to tweak mtab? Here is my ftab followed by mtab: Any ideas?

/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST31500341AS_9VS2CGVN-part5 swap swap defaults 0 0

I successfully installed OpenSUSE on a 4gb pen drive using the instructions contained within this portal. However, for the life of me I can't figure out why the persistent feature doesn't work.
Here's my partition table map:
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

I upgraded to OpenSuse 11.2 and just about the only thing that doesn't work is my wireless internet. From my research, I should be using the iwl4965 or iwlwifi driver; however my system seems to be running iwlagn. I have no idea how to switch it as neither of the correct drivers can be found in my yast, and I've failed to find any information about this on the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link drivers for Linux* website.

On my dual-boot system, 11.4 and win7, Iped out the Doc and DL folders in my home directory and replaced 'em with links to the ones on the windows side. It works great except for one thing: When I open Dolphin in superuser mode and change the permissions to make myself the owner of those folders, the change doesn't take. Is there a special trick to it?GEFPS: I plan to use openSUSE as my main OS, but it's easier to keep my data on the NTFS partition, because Linux speaksindows better than than Windows speaks Linux. Besides, that's where my data already lives

As stated, NO USB functions, not at all, the light on the mouse is on, but it does not move on screen, the PS2 keyboard does not function either. Nothing that would allow you to install it, works at all. I am absolutely shocked not one single person on here has mentioned this.
The last time I tried OpenSuse was version 10, it installed without issue, I noted the installer as the nicest one in the Linux world I had seen to date, only to be utterly let down by this USB fumble.I have Legacy USB support, Legacy Keyboard and Legacy Mouse USB support on, that isn't the issue, and this didn't happen with 10 on the same system.

I've created the GParted LiveUSB from what I found on the Ubuntu forum. Apparently the instructions given on GParted website doesn't work.
I essentially copied the necessary gparted files to my USB and then made it bootable using syslinux.
I've set the boot sequence properly to boot from my USB but it still doesn't do anything and just brings up the screen where I select my OSs (I have a dual-boot system with WinXP).
I don't have access to a CD-drive so will have to use the USB. Is there a different way to make the LiveUSB?

It looks like the ocfs2console is broken on openSuse 11.4 64bit. I tested on several servers and my laptop. It works under 11.3 x86_64 but that uses Python 2.6. OpenSuse 11.4 uses Python 2.7.
I tried to submit a bug but I can't seem to get my email address verified so I can use the bug tracker.

My CD drive is attached as secondary slave but it doesn't appear anywhere, eg. no /dev/hdd or /dev/cdrom. It is not listet in hwinfo either. I completely re-installed SuSE from network today, so it's the newest version. The drive always worked fine in SuSE 9.x and also booting the Network Setup CD worked properly.
May there be missing packages? What do I have to check next?

It seems that there is no way for me to install java plugin in firefox 3.6. I've already read some threads about similar problems but none of the solutions that worked for other people work for me. So I decided to open a new thread. Following instructions of other threads, I uninstalled all java packages and installed again just the three that you can see below, but nothing changed.
Opensuse 11.1
KDE 4.4.1
Firefox 3.6
Code:
# rpm --query --all '*java*'
java-1_6_0-sun-1.6.0.u7-20.4
java-1_6_0-sun-plugin-1.6.0.u7-20.4

The main thing preventing me from going Linux although I have it installed in a multi-boot is the probelm I have with Reconnecting the Network (eth0)
If I reboot everything is fine and I am automatically connected to internet via my Ethernet_NAT_router/Homeplug_PowerLine/Cable_Router (using DHCP)
But if I manually disconnect the Network using the tray icon, or through the terminal, when I reconnect the Network Manager says I am reconnected but actually I am not connected to the internet. I can load my Cable Routers configuration page but pages beyond that in the outside world are accessible no longer...
To regain access I have to reboot.
The reason this is important for me is that I reckon if I could get this sorted then if I put the laptop to sleep it will will wake up and reconnect.
As it is using Linux sleep function is unworkable unless I don't mind losing internet.
I am determined to get this sorted eventually as I feel sure there must be a solution. My laptop isn't new but is a good workhorse.

the problem is how to have a "backslashed R", looking at here and picking up Combining Diacritical Marks you can see all the unicode combining diacritical marks like the one to have a "slashed R" that is U+0338, so if you type R and ctrl>shift>U 0338 >return you obtain R̸,but if you want a "backslashed R" and you type R and ctrl>shift>U 20e5 >return you obtain R⃥, and it isn't what you wantto do this you can use also gucharmap or kcharselect, I tried and them work for U+0338 and doesn't work for U+20e5, so, thinking that it was a gucharmap problem I mailed to gnomebugs here , I red this too here:
Combining Diacritical Marks for Symbols U+20D0 U+20FF (84008447)
Windows: Arev Sans, Arial Unicode MS, Cambria Math, Caslon, Code2000, EversonMono, Free Sans, Free Serif, Hindsight Unicode, Monospace, Reader Sans, RomanCyrillic Std, SImPL, sixpack, STIXGeneral, Sun-ExtA, Symbola, Y.OzFontN
Unix: Caslon
and installed fonts, Arial Unicode MS and Caslon, that seems to support U+20D0 - U+20FF (my is U+20e5, so it should be in the range) Combining Diacritical Mark, but it doesn't work, and at the end him suggest me to ask help to my "distrution's support forums", so here I am , Why I cannot have a "backslashed R"??

got a suspend problem with OpenSuse 11.3. I configured the powersave module that whenever I close down the screen of my laptop it suspends to ram. Works fine so far except when the screensaver is active. It just stays on when I close down the lid.
