  How do I get my USB Bluetooth to work with my linux SuSE Pro?
Posted by: Axiom_Prophet - 2006-01-21, 10:26 AM - Forum: SUSE - Replies (1)

I'm using SuSE Pro 9.2 on my desktop. Linux recognizes the adaptor, but so far I am unable to make a connection with it. What does it take to configure Bluetooth so that I can actually use it. Please keep in mind that I am very new to linux and will need step by step type instructions. I will greatly appreciate any help I can get....

  D-Link Wireless LAN on SUSE 10
Posted by: hybrid - 2006-01-20, 09:34 PM - Forum: Wireless - Replies (7)


Following on from this post (yes, it was successful), I am now trying to help a friend set up his wireless network on SUSE Linux 10 on an IBM Thinkpad. Having never done any wireless network stuff before (don't have a laptop), I don't know what to do to get the card to work. I have searched around and heard of ndiswrapper, but I have no idea how this works/how to set it up. I have also been doing extensive Googling to no avail.

 

Judging by the problems anyweb had with SUSE 10, I don't think I can do this myself.

 

The card is a PCMCIA D-Link DWL-G650+ AirPlusG+ CardBus Wireless LAN and it works perfectly on Windows XP. I have tried removing and adding the card from YaST2's LAN module numerous times with different settings to no avail. The card doesn't even light up in Linux. Here is the result of ifconfig:

 



Code:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0A:E4:3A:51:73              inet6 addr: fe80::20a:e4ff:fe3a:5173/64 Scope:Link            UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1            RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0            TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0            collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000             RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

Any help on this would be a great help, and thanks in advance.

  after yum update, gnome-applets don't load
Posted by: anyweb - 2006-01-20, 12:52 PM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 5 - No Replies


if you get the following type of errors after an update in FCR5t2

Quote:The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_BattstatApplet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration ?
 

then as root do as follows (note it is one line, not two)

 



Code:
for f in /usr/lib*/bonobo/servers/*.server; do sed -ie 's|$(LIB)|$LIB|' $f; done




 

 

more info here

 

[/url][url=https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-deve...y/msg00903.html]https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-deve...y/msg00903.html

 

restart X or restart the computer to see the fix.

as root i've uninstalled and reinstalled gaim using yum,

 

gaim worked just fine up until yesterday and the only things that changed were two large yum updates

 

gaim starts just fine as root, but of course I don't want to use it as root.

 

any ideas ?
