OpenSUSE :: Getting Different Output From Gparted?

Mar 18, 2011

As you will see from the screenshot, I am getting a strange display on all ext4 partitions in gparted - but only when the version of gparted installed in opensuse is used. The version is 0.8.0-1.2.As displayed in the screenshot, I have checked that e2fsprogs is installed. It is, and the version is 41+ (ie 1.41.14-5.1)I do not get the triangles displayed for ext4 partitions when I use gparted from within Ubuntu or Fedora - just opensuse.fsck has been run several times and completes quickly, reporting that the file system is clean, on all ext4 partitions.

General :: Partition Gparted Fdisk / When Reduced The Size Of Some Linux Partitions Using Gparted?

Sep 18, 2009

I have 3 Ubuntu installations & a PCLINUXOS, plus Windows XP installed on one hard disk. I still can boot to each one of them and can mount each one using Ubuntu.

The problem "may" have occurred when I reduced the size of some linux partitions using gparted. I still have plenty of space in each of those partitions.

When I started gparted all of the HD was unallocated. I did that from each ubuntu installation and the PCLINUX installation, plus LIVECDs. All indicated the space was unallocated.

When I did an fdisk -l from a Puppy Linux LiveCD I got a normal start and ends of each partition.

When I tried it from Ubuntu installation or live cd, I received the following types of responses:

Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda5

Disk /dev/sda5: 28.5 GB, 28566397440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3473 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -u /dev/sda5

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3473.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Plus the Windows partition seems to go over its limits.

Since all of my OS installations are still working, I don't know how critical this is. From reading another post, I understand this might be able to be fixed by making some changes in fstab.

OpenSUSE :: Gparted Is Unable To Create Anything More Than An Hfs Filesystem

Sep 12, 2009

I'm running a modified version of OpenSUSE 11.1 from the susestudio builder. I've run across a weird issue whereby gparted is unable to create anything more than an hfs filesystem.

It seems that the package libparted simply doesn't exist in any of the repositories I'm using. I am figuring this would affect what gparted is able to do, although I'm unsure since the program itself runs fine.

OpenSUSE :: GParted LiveUSB Doesn't Work

Feb 10, 2010

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?

OpenSUSE :: Gparted Refuses Sometimes To Start / Solve This?

Oct 17, 2010

If I try to start gparted, sometimes it works fine, other times, it throws this error:

Code:
Could not initialise connection to hald.
Normally this means the HAL daemon (hald) is not running or not ready
I have tried manually starting hal daemon,but nothing happens.

OpenSUSE :: Format Drive With Newer Gparted Without Unused Space?

Apr 27, 2011

For a while now, I have been using an older version of gparted (0.4.5) from an older bootable Linux disk to format my hard drives. The version included with Suse 11.4 (0.8.0) has given me a puzzle. I tend to create a number of partitions (3 primary, an extended, and a number of logical) on my disks. For some reason, version 0.8.0 seems to requires 1 mb of space between each partition, and 2-3mb of space at the end of the drive. With the older gparted, I could create partitions with no unused disk allocation. Is there some reason for this new behavior? Is there some way to format a drive with the newer gparted without unused space? I realize that 10-15mb of disk is fairly small, but I have this dislike of wasted space. The drives being formatted are SATA drives in the range of 250gb -750gb.

OpenSUSE Install :: Use GParted Live CD To Shrink Windows XP Partition?

Mar 27, 2010

I've been trying to use GParted Live CD to shrink my Windows XP partition and allocate this space to /home.

On GParted I shrank my /dev/sda1 (Windows) from 36GB to 26 GB. Then I had 10 GB of unallocated space. I didn't know how I could use this unallocated space to increase the size of /dev/sda7 (/home). How do you do this?

OpenSUSE :: GParted File System Support / Running Programs As Root

Sep 27, 2010

I have GParted installed, running openSUSE 11.3 with GNOME. When running GParted, it always grayed out most file system actions, supporting only hfs fully. This made no sense, as I had all the required packages installed for other file system support. However, I recently figured out how to get it to work. Using the installed menu button doesn't work, running "gnomesu /usr/sbin/gparted" doesn't work; to get it to work, I have to open up a terminal, type "su -" to log in as root, and then run gparted. The menu button and gnomesu both prompt for a password, so it should be running as root, but launching it through the root terminal is the only way to actually get it to work. Is one root different from another?

OpenSUSE :: Identify Ps Output - Permission Denied

Jan 4, 2011

I noticed when running "ps -ef" that there are a bunch of processes listed with brackets. ie "[process]". Some of them appear to be daemons and others look more like kernel modules? I haven't found a program directly associated with them and was hoping somebody could clarify this for me?

Also, if I run a search of the file system with sudo or as root, there is a directory in my home that returns a permission denied. I understand permissions but shouldn't operations as root be able to do/access anything on the system?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Amarok Is Truncating Output?

Sep 29, 2010

I listen to some voice mail messages over the web. Firefox downloads the message as a ".wav" file, and then invokes amarok to play it.What I have been noticing, is that amarok seems to cut the message short.As an additional test, today after playing a message on amarok, I tried playing the same message with kaffeine. There was significantly more to the message when played on kaffeine. The particular message ended with the phone number I should call back (if I wanted to). None of that ending sentence showed in the amarok playback

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: No Output To StarTech USB Audio?

Jun 10, 2011

I have a StarTech USB audio adapter which I have been unable to get output from in Suse. Pavucontrol allows me to adjust the output to this device, and even shows some signal when playing media. However, no output makes it to the headset/speaker jack of the USB device. There does not appear to be any issues with playing media to the internal sound card & speakers of the computer. I booted up a Live Ubuntu disk, the device was recognized, and output made it with no problem. This leads me to discount a hardware problem. I'm running Suse 11.4 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420s.
