OpenSUSE Install :: Change The Kernel With Yast?
Aug 4, 2010After 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.

OpenSUSE :: Upgrade From Stock Version 2.3 To Current 2.32 Using YAST?
Oct 29, 2010Is it possible to upgrade from stock version 2.3 to current 2.32 using YAST? I can see 2.32 when using a browser to look at the repository, but when I enter the repository as a software source in YAST, it does not show up in YAST. What steps am I missing? Can I use YAST, or should I just download the RPMs and go from there by hand?

OpenSUSE Install :: Yast Overwrites Menu.lst - Stop Idiocy When Upgrading The Kernel
Feb 12, 2010Yast completely overwrites my very customized /boot/grub/menu.lst. I wrote a Perl script to restore the customizations from the previous version (retained in CVS) but this is more than a little annoying. At least Ubuntu asks. How do I stop this idiocy when upgrading the kernel.

Dec 7, 2010I've just upgraded from 11.1 to 11.3. When I go into Yast and try to invoke the Graphics Card and Monitor settings, nothing happens - I get the spinning circles for a few seconds and nothing after that. How can I get at those settings, and why doesn't Yast let me do that?

Jun 15, 2010I have tried to 'rpm -ivh' the 2.6.34-8 image to the 2.6.31-5 on my Suse 11.2. Without any luck, rpm goes fine, however at the next bootup, then udev is about to be initialized, the machine goes down (don't see any message).
But if I install the MileStone 7 of 11.3 on the same machine, it works just fine.
Are there any scripts/howtos I have to follow if I upgrade from 2.6.31 to 2.6.34?

Mar 6, 2011I am running 11.3 for about 4 months and it suddenly started to hang intermittently, sometimes many times a day. Once KDE restarted and other times the screen went black. Most of the time it was just hanging and I needed to force a shutdown. The only clue I got is KDE displayed a notification saying "Disabling IRQ #24" not long after it started to go nuts.
After searching around, I figured the problem was with my external video card so I pulled it out 2 days ago and so far it didn't freeze again. After searching around some more, I found many users fixed very similar issues by upgrading to kernel 2.6.35 and I am ready to go for this solution. But now, I couldn't find out how to upgrade the kernel. People said it can be done in Yast but I only see version 2.6.34. What is the easiest way to upgrade?

OpenSUSE Wireless :: No Change After Kernel Upgrade For Betterment?
Jan 7, 2010This is my first post here. I'm using Opensuse 11.2 (Gnome)and the inbuilt kernel is 2.6.31.xx. My laptop is having bcm4312 (14e4 : 4315 id)chipset for wireless. (0e:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) 0e:00.0 0280: 14e4:4315 (rev 01) ) I have read multiple times here in some threads that this kernel will require Broadcom-wl drivers(Tried ,No success with this) And If I want to use b43 drivers , then I need to go for the 2.6.32 kernel (stable one from this release). I've done the same exactly given in some other link -
Steps-
make mrproper
make menuconfig
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
After rebooting it's not showing anything new.Just the boot menu with the older one. Experts, Kindly let me know what I'm missing?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Yesrterday's Kernel Upgrade Screws Up Graphics?
Mar 23, 2010I'm used to kernel updates screwing up both my graphics drivers and my instaltion of parallels. These things break each and every time the kernel is updated. Normally, reinstalling makes the problem go away and I move on. Yesterday, Parallels got screwed and I fixed it by reinstalling but the graphic driver is yet to work.
For reference I am using OpenSUSE 11.2 64-Bit Gnome-Edition with an ATI Radeon 4650, since it probably makes a difference. For some reason the driver from the repo (ATI's repo) would not install and I got errors saying that it has a wrong signature and (ignoring that) I got another error saying it was corrupted. So I could not install as usual.
Instead I went at ATI's site and downloaded the latest driver. It installed but I lost the mouse cursor so I reinstalled the previous version which also installed but it not working properly, although I do have a mouse cursor.
glxinfo gives the following error:
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 136 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 24
Current serial number in output stream: 24
fglrxinfo outputs the exact same thing. OpenGL is not working in any way. Even the gears demo and desktop effects (which I tried to reactivate just to test, since I hate those things) simply do not work.
OpenSUSE Install :: 11.2 Kernel Upgrade Causes Bootchart To Fill Root?
Nov 22, 2009I did a kernel upgrade in openSUSE 11.2 which caused bootchart to fill the root partition or so it would appear as when I rebooted I started getting messages on the console saying bootchartd could not write because the device was full.
Let me begin by describing my system:
Partition table:
fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00083a53
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 2612 20980858+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 2613 15666 104856255 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda3 * 15667 15927 2096482+ 83 Linux
code....
As you can see from the partition table I have 2GB allocated for the / partition and according to the df command there is 0 free space but du -hx shows / is only using 405MB. What's happened to the almost 1.6GB that should be available?
OpenSUSE Install :: Kernel Upgrade On 11.1 - Cannot Find Module After Reboot
Nov 10, 2010I've upgraded kernel 2.6.27.48-0.2-default to 2.6.27.54-0.1.1 on openSUSE 11.1. Before I tried to upgrade to 2.6.27.48-0.3-default where I encountered the same issue. After reboot it can not find the modules for 2.6.27.48-0.2-default which puzzled me to no end. Now I have found that the /boot which is on separate partition of ext2 type is not mounted. The mount command does not recognize ext2 and xfs anymore.
Clearly the initrd does not have the right modules. Since this is standard zypper up process I would expect this to work without issues since it has worked until the 2.6.27.48-0.2-default kernel without issues. Has something changed with the last 2 kernel versions that requires some extra actions from me and if so what do I have to do.
OpenSUSE Install :: Manually Change Information On Every Kernel Upgrade
Jan 1, 2011To run my other linux distros on another drive I have been manually entering the kernel and initrid info for each distro on the opensuse yast boot loader. For windows 7 it just runs the mbr on the drive windows 7 is on. However I can not get it to do that on the other linux drive. The problem for me is that on every kernel upgrade I have to manually change the info. I would rather have grub on the sdd linux disk take care of it on the upgrades. The drive that holds the other linux versions is sdd. Opensuse is on sdc.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Kernel Upgrade In 11.3/ KDE4.5: Fullscreen Flash Hang In X?
Sep 5, 2010Seems that my kernel was the problem then I update it manually but I want a update in Kernel, but keep in boot my current kernel and add the update kernel on boot, how to? The X, mouse and other freeze but audio still running along with crtl+alt+f2:[URL].. Jay Ashworth 2010-09-05 04:03:09 UTC
"2) Flashplayer in fullscreen freezes X; the audio from the video keeps playing continuously, not in a loop, but the video freezes, and (in some cases) the user can switch to a text console--possibly only once--and kill X without having to reboot. This latter description is pretty clearly the actual bug here on 620157, and if you read all 4 descriptions, you can see that the other three are *not* this particular failing."

OpenSUSE :: Wireless Adapter No Longer Detected After Kernel Upgrade / Solve This?
Aug 17, 2011No wireless after upgrading to linux kernel 3.0 in opensuse 11.4. I'm using Kde and gnome 3, everything was working fine under the 2.6.39 kernel, but now both only detects my wired connection. Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated. I have a Netgear WNDA3100 adapter that uses the Atheros drivers. It also is no longer detected in my Fedora 15 after upgrading the kernel, but it still works in Mint 11 with the 2.6.38.8 kernel.

May 21, 2011I was about to do upgrade from 11.3 to 11.4.I was following the guide I found in opensuse's website. I was to the point where I had to disable all 11.3 repositories and add the 11.4 at that point I forgot to change my nvidia repository ( I have a g210m graphic card).
thus after the upgrade the X could not start at all. I think this was because Yast could not find the nvidia driver.
Using text mode YaSt2 I added the nvidia driver but after restart I can not see and X running. I receive an error message that the current kernel can not be loaded!!!
I also checked in command line if there is something like Sax2.. but I couldnot find anything.
OpenSUSE Network :: Device YaST - Can't Identify YaST - "Unknown Network Device"
Dec 8, 2010In my YaST Network Settings (11.3), I see an entry labelled "Unknown Network Device" how to remove the confusion?

OpenSUSE :: Red Text In Yast?

Oct 30, 2009Using OpenSuse 11.2 RC2. After playing around to install the nvidia driver, Yast lost its beautiful initial colours (light blue, as the rest of the kde desktop) and became a bit uglier (dark blue, more rudimentary, etc; I think the default "unbranded KDE"'s colour).I have the KDE theme set either for the regular user and for root. I have also installed the packages yast2-theme-openSUSE and yast2-theme-openSUSE-Oxygen installed but, how shall I choose one of them?Some webs say that there is an option in Yast under "miscellaneous" to choose Yast's theme, but I do not have it.
