OpenSUSE Network :: DISPLAY Variable Setting Over VPN?
Jun 9, 2010
I am connected to work via a VPN. I am logging into a Solaris box at work from OpenSuse 11, using ssh -X. I would like to start a GUI on the solaris box. The problem is that I don't know what value to give the DISPLAY variable. Is it the local internal LAN ip address, for my machine? I did try that, and I tested it using, xterm on the solaris machine. It says it can't open the display. I have enabled remote connections on my machine using xhost +.I have to run a performance test on the Solaris box at 7am in the morning... so need to find out how to start the GUI

When i ssh to server using -X, i always confuse about which display number i should export. It seems to me sometimes the display number has been used by something, so what i can do is only
export DISPLAY=localhost:0 && xclock
export DISPLAY=localhost:1 && xclock
export DISPLAY=localhost:2 && xclock
[code]....

Not sure if I'm doing right to post this on this thread but I've got an issue with my laptop screen extension. I have plugged a vga monitor to my laptop for a right display extension. The idea is to put the right extension on the vga monitor but don't why the monitor is know my main screen and my laptop the extension. I have tried to change sides but the laptop is still the extension and not the main one as I want.
Is there a hard way to make this work?

Installed 11.3 KDE today on an old Vaio desktop we were given (Duron 900Mhz, 512mb, 40Gb HD, SiS630 onboard video, Trinitron 15" monitor). Everything works fine except it will not save the 800x600 resolution setting. Every time I reboot it is back to 1280x1024 which it thinks is the default resolution. Any tweak to get 11.3 to save that setting?

System won't retain 16:9 display size setting in YaST (SaX2). I'm using SuSE 11.1 (64 bit).
SaX2 settings as follows:
Monitor is Samsung Syncmaster XL2370-1 (digital). Resolution is set to 1920X1080 (1080p). Diagonal measurement set to 23 inches. Display size indicates 509 m.m. X 286 m.m. (20 3/8" X 11 1/2").
Aspect ratio is entered as 16:9, but after saving and restarting computer it keeps coming back as 16:10.
Samsung literature says 16:9, and measurements above confirm this.
So why does it keep going back to 16:10, and how can I get it to retain 16:9? (Same thing happens on another computer, also running SuSE 11.1, and with a second of these same monitors.)

When I attempt to connect to a wireless network, the network manager asks me for the network's password, then says 'setting network address' for 20 or so seconds, then asks me for some random Hex or ASCII key in the same type of window I put the password in (Secrets for Noel -- KDE Daemon). Since a key is already typed into the window, I press OK, which then causes the network manager to go back to 'setting network address', then the window pops up again and keeps repeating itself.
I'm running Opensuse 11.4 with KDE, and my driver is ath9k. I don't know much about linux so please don't tell me to 'recompile this' or 'change this setting' without explaining how to do it. Please help, I've been unable to connect to wireless in OpenSUSE for 2 weeks now.

I have a single NIC (eth0) and it has a single, static public address assigned to it. I would like to assign an additional private address (192.168.1.68) to the NIC to make accessing my router more convenient, but I'm having a little trouble. I'm not using the Network Settings module in YaST because whenever I've tried before it has usually resulted in my internet connection failing and being unable to remove the alias info I tried setting in YaST. So, instead, I'm just trying to do it by editing the configuration directly. I'm also using it as an opportunity to learn a little bit more about Linux. So far, all I've done is add an extra line to my /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 file. Originally the contents of the file were as follows.
Code:
BOOTPROTO='static'
BROADCAST=''
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
IPADDR='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/21'
[code]....
Naturally, this didn't work either. Can anyone tell me how to specify the gateway for the additional local address?

I have problems with setting my JAVA_HOME variable. I am using Slackware 12.0, bash shell. This is a question for the 'Linux Newbie' forum (not slackware-specific).
I have set JAVA_HOME in my /etc/profile, like this:
But when I login in with my user name and type env on the command line, I get for JAVA_HOME the following:
Also, in my /etc/profile I have put the path to my java in the PATH variable, like this:
And when I type env when I login, then the PATH variable contains correctly the path to the jdk (as I have put it into /etc/profile).
I expect that after I have set everything as I want in /etc/profile, and restart the computer then what I have set will be relevant and when I login and type env, I will get values to the variables equal to those I have set in /etc/profile. Why it does not happen?
I have particularly a problem with a Java application, which I want to run. When I type ant, I get:
error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. We cannot execute /usr/lib/java/bin/java.

I have been trying to change my PATH environment variable to no avail. I am using Jessie i386 with MATE. Using my .bashrc file works but not well because with subshells the modifications get repeated. I want the change to occur on login.
I tried modifying ~/.profile ~/.bash_profile /etc/profile and /etc/environment and one or two others but in no case did my change get picked up even after logging out and in again and even after rebooting. I searched the Internet and found each of the above places to make the change but they don't seem to work with Jessie.
Where do I make the necessary change?

I've just installed OpenSUSE 11.2 w/KDE interface on a HP Pavilion dv5-1010us laptop.Now we're trying to get the wireless to work. It's got a built-in wireless adapter, but we're not sure what kind of adapter it is. HP's Website is no help there. According to another site, it's an Intel WifiLink 5100. I did download the wireless driver from the HP site, but it's a .exe file. Anyone had any luck setting up this or a similar HP laptop. I couldn't find this model on the HCL/Laptops/HP - openSUSE page, but it seems OpenSUSE supports wireless other HP Pavilion models.

I am running
Code:
On my laptop (HPDV7), using DHCP for network access, KDE4.
I use Network Manager to manage wired and wireless connectivity.
I also have Samba server running for connectivity to Windows machines.
My router runs DD-WRT.
How do I tell this HPDV7 system to propagate a Host Name up to the router?
In the DD-WRT status screen, I see Host Name as "*" associated with the assigned IP address.
I cannot, for example, ping my HPDV7 machine from my windows machine, I assume because the router (also providing DNS for my network) does not provide the name to address translation.
I CAN ping the IP address directly, and Samba connectivity from the Windows machine to HPDV7 works.
The file

I can't seem to get Remote Administration (vnc) working for the life of me. I tried the ip4/ip6 fix and every other work around I could find. I simply can't figure things out. I can't say I'm new to Linux but I can say that I am quite new to openSuse and the RPM world in general. My actual error isn't much of an error but that of the vnc window just being a black window that eventually times out.
As of now I access and configure the box vis ssh.I'm using:
openSuse 11.3
Gnome Desktop
Installed from gnome live CD

I have a problem to use echo to display the content of a variable.
This is what I do:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
USAGE="Usage: name [OPTIONS] [DIRECTORIES]"
echo $USAGE
When I run this little script I get the following output:
Usage: name [OPTIONS] R
So I think that [DI might be some sort of escape sequence. But I do not know how to unescape it. Does anyone have a hint for me?

I'm trying to define a variable, CHAN, by dividing another variable, FREQ, by a number. FREQ is a value from a file (called header.txt). What I think I'm doing with this bit of code is reading a number from header.txt whose location is specified by the head and tails, assigning it to FREQ and then defining CHAN with bc.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
while read FREQ

how I can define a local static IP address (so that I can run a web server off of the same IP, rather than letting my router DHCP it)?I've tried doing the YaST->Network Devices->Network Settings->Traditional Method with ifup->Set NIC to desired IP->Set Default Gateway to router address method, and afterwards I can't even get into my router anymore (not even responding to ping).

I'm maintaining a very modest network at home, with OpenSUSE as OS on the server. I got the DHCP and routing working by following the instructions in the wiki. However, every time I run dhclient on the server/router, it appears my own DHCP server assigns an address to the internal network card despite the fact I specifically assigned it to be static using Yast. The situation resolves itself when I restart the network services with the command /etc/init.d/network restart. Otherwise no problem, but it also seems the internal network card gets a "new" IP from my server every time the external card requests one from the ISP. This is more of an issue.
