Hi all, hello
François
I must admit that it is not easy to have to re-learn everything. I do
not know Debian :-/ . I want towards Debian or Fedora. Oss 10 + Yast was so
easy!
There are some questions I ask in this list: how to take a screen
resolution higher IN CONSOLE MODE? My screen seems about 40 lines of 80
columns at startup instead of the usual ~ 150 columns (kernel parameters at
boot: vga = 0x31A)!
Graphics mode was achieved by "startx" and not "init 5" ... How
do I
log in graphic mode (TDM?). While Trinity was started, back on a console
(Ctrl + Alt + F3, for example), the keyboard is not "listening" except Ctrl
+ Alt + Del. Fortunately, because my screen did not like the frequencies
used by XOrg in 1280x1024: black-out! (-: See, Calvin). I guess I have to
visit XOrg to find out how to do this ...
I can not ask all my questions about Debian on this list. It does not lack,
however!
Read you soon!
The last distribution tryed (just now) was
Fedora-17 (07/2012), a live
TDE CD that is doing the best by far. But here, at the time of
installation:
- Unable to change (select any other) disk to install the boot loader
- Can not format in an other format than ext4 (no ReiserFS).
- Alert at end of installation: "Can not install the boot loader".
The cd that I used to boot one of my systems using GRUB1 do not know
Ext4. Consequently to boot Fedora is IMPOSSIBLE!
Hello,
It's true that the Fedora installer embedded with the LiveCD is
minimalistic.
Currently it cannot install on reiserfs, but I guess it's only because
the reiserfs-utils are not embedded in the LiveCD. I will have a look at
this.
Alternatively you can install Fedora 17 with the official Fedora DVD,
hoping it supports reiserfs, then install TDE from the internet
repository.
Finally, I feel very overtaken by my readings in
this list for the USERS,
which speaks so much of INSTALLATION SCRIPTS. And if I well understand, a
lot of things changed in Linux: XWindow, SytV init, Grub, give up of
reiserfs for Ext4, KDE4& Gnome3, sound system, etc, etc…
My question is: OpenSuse is now made so low that I MUST DROP this
distribution.
Direct me to what?
Thank you very much for your work and help.
If you really want to stick with openSuse 11.4 and TDE, I can build TDE
3.5.13.1 …
It should not be complicated since I already built for 12.2 .
