Fedora :: Where Are Stored PWs For Remote Desktop Viewer Stored?
Oct 20, 2010I have machine that I used to VNC to on my network with Remote Desktop Viewer from my Fedora 12. When I first connected I checked the checkbox that I wanted to store the pw. Now the pw on the other machine has changed but Remote Desktop Viewer does not ask for a new password, it just gives me a black screen, like I am connected but I can't see anything. I'd like to know if anyone knows where this pw data is stored on the system so I can start fresh. I already tried uninstalling Remote Desktop Viewer and installing it again.

/var/log/syslog - an endless file, yet the records end at 28/12/2015
/var/log/dmesg - same

May 26, 2011I'm trying to dual-boot Windows 7 with openSuSE 11.4, i was told that i should install SuSE after windows 7 as it takes care of the boot-loader and automatically detects my windows installation and not vice-versa,
But that is not true in my case.
So i had 2 hard disks one had windows 7 installed and one was empty so i decided that i should get openSuSE 11.4 on the empty hard disk and dual-boot it with windows 7 (that i already had installed). Downloaded the DVD, put it on a USB and installed SuSE on the other hard disk normally, it detected my windows installation on my main hard disk but i didn't touch that, only formatted my other hard disk to ext4
After the installation it booted automatically into SuSE, but now every time on a fresh restart the system boots automatically into windows. Methods i have already tried to resolve this and it didn't work:
1. Booted from the DVD and selected an "Upgrade" not "New Installation" so i could boot again into my SuSE installation which did work, checked my "Boot Loader" options from YaST and checked the "Boot from MBR" option instead of the "Boot from root partition" option, That Did NOT work.
2. Used the same method to Boot into SuSE with the "Upgrade" Option opened up the terminal and tried to install grub manually again using this link

SUSE :: Can't Get Live CD To Boot Up
Jan 4, 2010So I've recently scrapped togehter a computer to use for running openSUSE, and I've downloaded the Live CD, as well as the full DVD. Whenever I turn on the machine with either, I get the DISK BOOT FAILURE error. I've made sure that it boots first from CDROM drive, and verified all of hte wiring, but I can't see to get this to boot up. I've heard its possible it's just an issue that the motherboard doesn't want to run it, but are there other things to do to test it out?
View 7 Replies View RelatedSUSE :: Dual Boot 11.2 And XP?
Jan 6, 2010I installed open SUSE to dual boot with XP and have an interesting problem. When my computer rebooted to complete the SUSE install, it would not work at all. I rebooted and the GRUB came up with operating system choices, but when I chose one, absolutely nothing would happen. I tried to reinstall SUSE and nothing happened. I rebooted with the XP cd and nothing happened. I then rebooted with a bood cd I have and it showed the hard drive but could not test it and said it was absent.
After freaking out, I shut the computer all the way off and started it up again. Now it works. It seems that I cannot reboot the system for it to work. I have to turn it all the way off before it will work at all.
Windows runs as well but was a bit shaky to start. I think it's ok now.
Anyone know why a reboot will not restart the system and I have to shut it all the way down? Soft boot, hard boot, doesn't make any difference.

Jan 24, 2011I had mounted the pen drive then dismounted. I found out that by putting the pendrive into my sat receiver recorder with Ext3 mad the machine go crazy and I have had to sort that out before this! To say my wife was mad as hell is an understatement, but this was what I was told to do on AVForum.But now this leaves me in a predicament. I have no OpenSues booting. It goes through all the loading and then it asks me for the password with all the script showing and not the desktop. It says repair boot after this. Is there a simple way to resolve it? I think it was looking for the pendrive. Well I had to reformat that back to FAT.
View 5 Replies View RelatedInstallation :: Dual Boot Windows 7 / Suse 11
Sep 5, 2010I am trying to install Suse 11 on my new laptop. The laptop has 250GB capacity. As I only use Linux for some scientific programming, I only needed to allocate about 20GB to Linux.
SDA1 is NTFS PQ Service 13.1 GB
SDA2 is NTFS Sys Reserved 101.9 GB
SDA 3 was the mainWindows user partition.
I shrunk this partition to 195GB using GPARTED.
I then tried to add 3 new Linux partitions to the unallocated disc space for usr home and a swap partition. GPARTED informed me that I would need to produce an extended partition to do this.
SDA4 became an extended partition 24.42GB
SDA5 EXT2 10.74 GB
SDA6 SWAP 1.46GB
SDA7 EXT2 11.21GB
When I started the SUSE install, all of the partitions were recognised correctly, but on the Grub details screen (Grub was allocated by SUSE to SDA4) I was warned that as this was beyond 128GB, my computer might not boot correctly. Is this likely to be the case, or do I need to alter something to get SUSE to install. The last thing i want with a new computer is a system that won't boot at all.
SUSE :: Recovery - Update The Boot Loader?
May 28, 2010I'm running Suse 9 service pack 2. I have the recovery cd in the system and have issued the following command /sbin/mkinitrd -m "reiserfs aacraid mptscsih jbd ext3" -b /tmp/kevin/boot -d /dev/sda2
They system responded with : Root Device: /dev/sda2 (mounted on / as reiserfs) Module List: reiserfs aacraid mptscsih jbd ext3 You may have to update your boot loader configuration QUESTION: How do I update the boot loader from the where I am now?
Note: the reason that I need the bott information is because during maintenance the module reiserfs was left out the kernel file when the a previous mkiniterd command was issued cuasing /dev/sda2 not to mount and the system to go into a kernel panic.

OpenSUSE Install :: Cannot Boot To Failsafe Mode In Suse 10.3
Oct 27, 2010Running Suse 10.3, desktop box, Asus M2NPV-VM, Athlon 64 3800+, two HDD RAID 1 config. I was getting 'bad block' errors when logging into Root, ran a search for fsck to try and fix the problem. Found out not a good idea to run while the system is mounted, tried to boot from install DVD, could not boot to a command prompt, tried to open the Repair tool, got a 'repair failed' message. Rebooted again to the HDD, but now it hangs, tried to go to Failsafe mode, same thing.
Was able to boot to Recovery mode, but not sure where to go from here. I also noted when booting to the HDD in 'verbose' mode it was showing a lot of 'irrecoverable error's on the boot logs concerning the HDD.
OpenSUSE Install :: SUSE 11.3 Only 1st Time After Boot Hibernate?
Apr 13, 2011pm-hibernate and pm-suspend only work the first time after booting into runlevel 5. This behavior is reproducable. pm-hibernate starts out correctly but then hangs the system bevore it gets to save the image from memory to disk. The computer locks up and does not power down.
pm-suspend: on wake up there is no signal on the screen (pm-suspend called from X environment or text terminal shows same result). I spent some time reading information on s2ram s2disk and added the follwing options:
S2RAM_OPTS="-f" in
/etc/pm/config.d/00meine.config
(display adapter is GForce4 nvidia with the closed source nvidia driver for accel)
splash = n in
/etc/suspend.conf - to get some more information during the suspend / hibernate.
Any ideas to get pm-hibernate / pm-suspend to work more than one time after boot??? Hibernate would be a great start for daily work and for energy saving.
horstausdemwald PS: In runlevel 3 pm-hibernate works various times from a text terminal. Under the same condition pm-suspend leads to a scrambled text terminal after resuming (some help on this: using vga=normal in Grub). The computer continues to work - though without visual aid - when the text terminal is scarambled. For example Runlevel 5 can be called blindly from the text terminal.
OpenSUSE Install :: How To Get Back Suse Boot Loader
Aug 2, 2011Now after my experiments with Open Indiana on another partition, I have rewrite my Suse Grub, that was as in / suse partition as in MBR. Suse partition is intact as well as files in /boot/grub, but in MBR is boot loader of Open Indiana as primary. How can I get back Suse boot loader. On Installation media under Rescue system I didn't find any option for re-installation of boot loader.
P. S. Now I can run Suse completely in Gui without any problem, because, I made some changes, in Open Indiana boot loader, but I would like return a Suse Grub.

I ran a system repair from the SuSE disk, at the boot loader settings, it displays the SuSE Linux partition and the Failsafe Linux recovery partition. I did not format any drives in the system repair. How do I add the Windows partition to the boot loader settings?
