XFree86 4.3.0 SuSE 8.1 rpm's
Help!
After installing all packages I ran SuSEconfig but this hangs on line creating cache files Xft. What's wrong? (Again sorry my poor english) And one more question about GNOME2 packages from SuSE ftp. I can all packages install correctly, except gnome-games2. This thing requires libguile.so.9. Guile from the same ftp is installed. What I must to do? Thanks |
ignore it for now, run sax2 to re-configure, sax should sort things out.

For the second question:
I suggest you to install apt for SuSE then do: apt-get update apt-get install packagename This will solve your dependency problems ;-) Have a lot of fun! |
after installing the rpm's on my machine i had the exact same hang, there is somthing seriously wrong with the procedure given in the readme, i've submited a report but since it's a use at your own risk upgrade i don't think SuSE is going to help.

I have the very same problem before but not anymore. Kernel 2.4.19 (athlon, latest), KDE 3.1 (apt updated), XFree 4.3.0 (stock), sax2 (apt updated), 3Ddiag (apt updated), NVIDIA_* (newest from nVidia)
I solve the problem mainly by using apt-get ;-) Here some that I can recall: Rpm -Uvh XFree86-everything exept: -libs -man -server and -xf86tools (I did the rest by following the README instruction -> this give me troubles) :-( Fire up apt-get update then apt-get upgrade (but not to choose yes -> do it manually with apt-get install packagename). This gave me a clue of some conflicting packages (XFree86 obsoletes these packages ... delete them all) Run nv_check.sh (this gave me a clue of problems with my nVidia driver) -> solve those problem as suggested (well... not exactly) ;-) Remove previously installed video card driver Reinstall with newest driver (a pair) -> Stomping one of the XFree86 file :-( Run 3Ddiag -> This give some clues to fix 3D problems Run x86config -> This give some newest options available Run sax2 -> Need OSD to correct further Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config -> Further tweaking... Select other kernel (k_athlon) -> Oops not too stable with production 2.4.20 -> back to the latest 2.4.19 Reconfigure KDE3 -> make it nice :newbie: Have a lot of fun! |
