OpenSUSE :: Install Patch - Error "vmware-7.1.3-2.6.37-rc5.patch' Not Found"
May 11, 2011
I'm trying to install a patch but when I copy it into terminal I get message " /home/john/patch-modules_v62-opensuse.sh 'vmware-7.1.3-2.6.37-rc5.patch' not found. copy it to the current '/home/john' directory. Exiting" But I have it in my home directory!
I get following error during automatic patch upgrade of my SuSE 11.2 to latest path revision. I assume it is due to the KDE 4.3.5 Update part of the patch set: compiz-kde4-0.7.8-9.14.x86_64 requires libkdecorations.so.4()(64 bit) but there are no providers. The package manager suggest to replace compiz-kde4-0.7.8-9.14.x86_64 with kwin-4.3.5-0.2.1.x86_64 but I don't want to loose compiz-kde. which repository I must add to resolve the dependency.
I just want to upgrade my Slackware 13.1 kernel (2.6.33.4) to the latest stable kernel from kernel.org (2.6.38.2). I have never done anything like this and I am a Linux newbie, so I would appreciate a "Kernel Patching for Dummies" version if possible. I did do a search on this forum and most of what I read was over my head. I found an FAQ on kernelnewbies.org on "How To Apply A Patch" but when I attempted what they suggested, it said it couldn't find the file to patch at line 5 and asked me which file to patch. So I CTRL-Z'd out of there and came here. Here's what I tried:
I have a script: `cd $FILEPATH && patch -i $TMPFILEA2$FILETMPPATH` Variable $FILESPATH is = /tmp/ardiff.AvUUGfOKa2/a/hello/ and Variable $TMPFILEA2$FILETMPPATH is = /tmp/ardiff.AvUUGfOKa2/b/hello/hello.c.patch. I don't know, why is it no working from script file, it write me message to terminal: ./ardiff.sh: line 242: patching: command not found.
But I have no PATCHING command there!!!! The paradox is, when I want to patch it from terminal (I write it to terminal by keyboard, it works).
stuff about a kernel speed up patch? Here is one Article The Linux desktop may soon be a lot faster - Computerworld Blogs And Yet another even stranger kernel speed up here:
Alternative To The "200 Lines Kernel Patch That Does Wonders" Which You Can Use Right Away ~ Web Upd8: Ubuntu / Linux blog I have no idea if any of this stuff is true, but lets see some of our high power guys check it out and let us know what is true or not.
Yesterday I applied the su security patch to my openSuSE 11.2 x86_64 system.After applying the patch, any attempt at su failed, and after rebooting the system earlier this morning any login (root, user, otherwise) fails with a "Permission Denied".Is it possible that the su update somehow messed up my (standard) pam settings?
I am impressed with 11.4 and am happy that for the first time ever I don't need to install a kernel patch to support my on-board nVidia graphics. However, the on-board sound no longer works now. I don't know how to set it up in phonon. My device number 0 in phonon is MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78S high definition audio, and I assume this is my nVidia on-board sound card. The driver information states snd-hda-intel.
How can I check what is wrong with it? It did work fine on 11.2 right up to the 11.4 installation. I do get system sounds (like the start-up and shut-down sounds), but nothing from any application, e.g., firefox playing a video. Based on the advice from another thread I tried: speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav This does not produce any sound, but gives the following information: speaker-test 1.0.24.2

I've been working on getting the latest patch for wow to work and i have it downloaded and installed up to 4.0.0 but i know it's supposed to have gone one more patch to 4.0.1. Now when trying to run wow.exe through wine i get two different issues, first one is fatal error 132 comes up then if i relaunch wow it will pull up the user agreement screen but all graphics are gone just showing text.
If i accept and go to the log in screen i'm still only seeing the text no graphics, after that it goes to the downloading update then i get a message saying wow has encountered a serious problem, then it closes. I'm not the most knowledgable on linux but had been running wow perfectly fine till this patch..
I'm running spamassassin and want to install the fuzzyocr module for it. One of the dependencies of fuzzyocr is 'giflib' but according to the fuzzyocr page, it needs to be patched before I install it, with a patch which they supply on the fuzzyocr download page. I've tried to install the patch and get the following error.
When follow the below step for patching the file diff file1 file2 > patchfile.patch patch -p0 file1 < patchfile.patch but I got the following error after that Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n] I dont know what happen here Kernel version is:
2.6.9-89.0.20.ELsmp patch version is: patch-2.5.4-20
I administer a lot of OpenSuSE 11.1 x86_64 machines and one of them has the problem that the command "zypper lp" lists a needed patch for "translation-update", version 532, but then "zypper patch" says that there is nothing to do.
I cannot get rid of this "needed patch", check out these commands I tried:
Code: machine:/root # zypper lu Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... No updates found.
[Code].....
Also note that about 50 other machines use this (mirrored update repository), none of them has this problem. They are all updated correctly, showing "0 needed patches".
I have been having the issue with my printer, where it will not print using both cartridges, and just mixes the colours to try and make black....I have found the following patch, but would like to know how to apply it?
My system is trying to install security update, but I get the following message: A package could not that allows the task to complete. Details are as follows: patch:libfreebl3-2258.noarch conflicts with libfreebl3-32bit.x86_64 < 3.12.6-3.1.1 provided by libfreebl3-32bit-3.12.6-2.pm.6.2.x86_64
I've a friend who would like to install openSUSE 11.3. But due to a bad Internet connectivity he cannot download the updates and the extra softwares. So I was thinking if it was possible to create a patch and a software cd for him which could then be used as a repository in YaST ?
I have SuSE 11.2. There is a security patch for Mozilla NSS Library. However, I get told by YaST that the libfreebl3-3241.noarch conflicts with mozilla-nspr.i586. (There's also a patch for glibc but apparently, it is not "willing" to install this without installing the other patch first). Anyway, I did the following: zypper lp and then rpm -qi libfreebl3 and then zypper lr -d.
Here are the results: Code: zypper lp Repository 'Updates for openSUSE 11.2-0' is out-of-date. You can run 'zypper refresh' as root to update it. Loading repository data... Reading installed packages.....
Code: zypper refresh Repository '11.2' is up to date. Repository 'Education' is up to date. Repository 'Printing' is up to date.

All repositories have been refreshed. I don't know what to do. In order to update FireFox, (on Aug 1, 2010) I had to do as posted in this thread: (instructions by caf4926) Updating firefox. So, I followed these directions: ImageBam - Fast, Free Image Hosting and Photo Sharing. Now what do I do?
Just wondering if this is possible and if so, how? I want to be able to apply the following patch: [URL]
It is apparently a test fix for the touchpad on the newer Dell laptops. I want to test drive it a bit. Otherwise, if someone could point me in the right direction as to custom compile a Fedora 13 x64 disc including this patch, that would be great.
