Virtual Party it’s now ! Eat my geeko’s cake
March 10th, 2011 by Bruno FriedmannATI/AMD fglrx 8.821 Catalyst 11.2 available for openSUSE 11.2, 11.3, 11.4
February 19th, 2011 by Bruno FriedmannUpdated : April 4th 2011
Preambule : free software
Warning
I would notice everybody which will install these software : you will install proprietary softwares on your computer. Nobody will be able to debug them, nor help you to resolve what can be happen. That must be said !
The free future
The real future is already in place : it’s called radeon (or free-radeon), it’s fully integrated in kernel & xorg. Actually ( for openSUSE 11.4, or openSUSE 11.3 with kernel-stable + X11 obs repo ). Support for many chipset is in real progress even for the 6xxx series.
Give it a try before using the proprietary software, report any bugs you find with it. Only your contributions can help and will make a real differences. Thanks for doing that !
Unofficial but working repository
I offer for those of you that for any reasons can’t use successfully the free-radeon drivers a repository where you will find the latest fglrx/catalyst drivers following the packaging policy made avalaible by AMD.
Thanks to Sebastian Siebert ( check his blog ) to work in coordination with ati/amd and follow the catalyst packaging. His work allow us to have that driver available for openSUSE.
The quick how-to
Adding the repository
For openSUSE Factory
zypper ar -c -f -n "ATI/AMD fglrx non-official" http://linux.ioda.net/mirror/ati/openSUSE_Factory/ "ATI/AMD FGLRX"
For openSUSE 11.4
zypper ar -c -f -n "ATI/AMD fglrx non-official" http://linux.ioda.net/mirror/ati/openSUSE_11.4/ "ATI/AMD FGLRX"
For openSUSE 11.3
zypper ar -c -f -n "ATI/AMD fglrx non-official" http://linux.ioda.net/mirror/ati/openSUSE_11.3/ "ATI/AMD FGLRX"
For openSUSE 11.2
zypper ar -c -f -n "ATI/AMD fglrx non-official" http://linux.ioda.net/mirror/ati/openSUSE_11.2/ "ATI/AMD FGLRX"
Installing the driver
Nota previous version
Due to change in ati/amd way of life, it’s recommanded to completely remove any version of fglrx previously installed with a zypper rm
I can only recommand to also (as root)
# Remove old conf & stuff
rm -fr /etc/ati
# Remove any old fglrx inside kernel modules
find /lib/modules -type f -iname "fglrx.ko" -exec rm -fv {} \;
New installation
Once the repo has been added, you will certainly have to reboot to get ride off free radeon module. At boot on the grub line add
nomodeset blacklist=radeon 3
Don’t panic you will be land to a console, open it with root account to install fglrx.
Search the software you want for example under openSUSE 11.4
zypper se -s fglrx Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... S | Name | Type | Version | Arch | Repository --+-----------------------+---------+---------+--------+----------- i | fglrx64_xpic_SUSE114 | package | 8.831-1 | x86_64 | ATI/AMD fglrx non-official | fglrx64_xpic_SUSE114 | package | 8.821-1 | x86_64 | ATI/AMD fglrx non-official | fglrx_xpic_SUSE114 | package | 8.831-1 | i586 | ATI/AMD fglrx non-official | fglrx_xpic_SUSE114 | package | 8.821-1 | i586 | ATI/AMD fglrx non-official
Starting with 8.821 (Catalyst 11.2) ATI use now xpic (full explanation)
So use that one. I’ve removed all non xpic drivers the 2 April 2011.
For a 64bits version
zypper in fglrx64_xpic_SUSE114
For a 32bits version
zypper in fglrx_xpic_SUSE114
During the installation process, all the dependencies will be added, which mostly are needed to build the kernel modules. Expect around 200MB to dowload.
Then the installer will build the module for your installed kernel.
And if there’s a kernel update, the script will automagically detect that, and will rebuild the module for the new kernel installed. (So if you find that your workstation is slow on reboot just press the esc key to see the details … )
Preparing xorg to use fglrx
Once the module is build and installed, you should have a file fglrx.conf or 50-fglrx.conf in /etc/modprobe.d
cat /etc/modprobe.d/50-fglrx.conf blacklist radeon
Next ati recommend to use ati –initial-config but that break the auto-detect stack of xorg. So I recommend changing one line in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf
just change driver line to driver “fglrx”
All the rest of the setup (double screen etc) will be made lately with the ati catalyst control center (command is amdcccle).
For those of you which want to have an xorg.conf file just have a look at aticonfig –help command.
Start X
If you are inside the console we start to use before just run “init 5” to start xorg, and normally you will find your normal xorg login screen (kdm, gdm, ldm, xdm).
Hit ctrl+alt+f1 to return to the console and type exit or logout or ctrl+d to close it.
then ctrl+alt+f7 to return to the xorg session.
Updates
ati/amd catalyst are release on a month basis, but this vary from 3 weeks to 8 weeks.

Virtual launch party for openSUSE 11.4 : RC1 is done
February 14th, 2011 by Bruno FriedmannSuccessfull RC1 launch!
Dear followers, after the official announcement, we test yesterday the place, and check how fun and cool it can be with several attendees.
The danse party Pop/Rock music themed was animated by DJ Yazz (Brittany Haefeli). Starting at 8:30 CEST the party was crowded during it’s 2 hours and a half. More than 50 people came and visit us during that time. Great that was twice what we expected !

Join us for the first virtual launch party openSUSE 11.4
February 3rd, 2011 by Bruno FriedmannAnnoncing the first virtual launch party
Dear folk, we are organizing a special event for the openSUSE 11.4 launch, and you’re invited. Virtually all of you can participate, and increase the success of it. And spend a good time.
Too soon? Not really, we are in the process to organize also pre-release party, certainly for the RC1 and RC2 launch. So you can practice before the real event. Prepare your environment, and dress your avatars with decent clothes, and gadgets.
We will do our best to welcome you in english, french & greek.
If you want you can also anwser our short pool we are looking about help.
Where?
On secondlife.com, go to area macedonia. at 183,213,21 coordinates
Or fire the search engine, and look after Geekos group, then join that group
When?
During 3 days March 9 10 & 11 2011
Party start at 16:00 UTC ( 8am SL time)
What?
Join our special place build for that event and let’s get
- Dance party
- Free drink
- Goodies
- Wall of pictures
- 11.4 installations movies
- open minded discussions
- Experience exchange
Who?
Your guests would be myself (tigerfoot) & Morgane Marquis.
A team of excellent dj’s as Lillith from Australia, Esquievel from USA, Stefanos from France,
or our great Greeks neighbors
Why?
Hey not so long ago I was kicked by H!
Because it’s a place where people have also fun, and we want to talk with them about the freedom & openSUSE.
Did you never attempt to realize something that has not been made yet?
Just to have a lot of fun! The full explanation Here
How?
To access that 3D virtual world, you need a recent computer 1.5Ghz or +, and good internet access >3500/300bps, and a 3D enabled graphics cards like radeon HD4xxx or more, Nvidia Geforce >9600, Intel > i945 & Intel Extreme.
To be continued
In the next weeks, I will publish an more technical article about how to get 3D world viewer installed on your openSUSE. And we are just finishing the picture gallery about that project which should be online next week (due to FOSDEM) this week-end.
Stay tuned !
Adobe Flash 64 bits under openSUSE 64bits (11.2,11.3,11.4,factory)
December 17th, 2010 by Bruno FriedmannNon Free
Dear readers, we sometimes have to use non-free software. This post will learn you how to get the latest flash player supporting natively your favorite openSUSE Linux 64 bits distribution.
Keep in mind that it is preview software, actually pre-release code quality, and with it you will not receive any security updates. Keep an eyes on it, and refresh it manually if newer version are published
So why to try that software ? My answer is simple : it’s a native 64bits plug-in. So it’s interaction with your native 64bits browser, should give you a better stability. My experience using it in the last 4 months is pretty good, no Firefox crash due to flash. (Several pro week or day with the 32bits 10.0 version)
Get ready
Remove any installed 32bits packages
First things to do, remove all actual 32bits flash installed.
zypper rm flash-player pullin-flash-player
Get the lastest Flash square preview
Go the main project page Square
Read the informations, and the Adobe License you implicitly accept by using this software.
Then Download the tar.gz
cd /tmp wget http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/flashplayer10_2_p3_64bit_linux_111710.tar.gz
Uncompress & Install
tar -xvzf flashplayer10_2_p3_64bit_linux_111710.tar.gz sudo chown root:root libflashplayer.so sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so
Test
Close any firefox or konqueror running, and restart them
under firefox, launch the about:plugins uri
and you should see
Shockwave Flash
File: libflashplayer.so
Version:
Shockwave Flash 10.3 d162
Have a nice surfing session, if you like flash website .
GoogleEarth 6.0 running in opensuse 11.4 factory 64Bits
December 1st, 2010 by Bruno FriedmannSometimes we need some of those applications running under our favorite OS. If you can stick with marble.
So the new googleearth 6.0 version hit the street. And if like me you want to give it a try, there’s some tricks to make it installing under your 64bits opensuse factory.
My first attempt just result in a nice crash …
h GoogleEarthLinux6.0.bin Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing Google Earth for GNU/Linux 6.0.0.1735.............................................................. I/O error : No such file or directory setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Document is empty ^ setup.data/setup.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ *** glibc detected *** setup.data/bin/Linux/amd64/setup.gtk2: free(): invalid pointer: 0xbabababa *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/libc.so.6(+0x6df6b)[0xf6c64f6b] /lib/libc.so.6(cfree+0xd9)[0xf6c69ab9] setup.data/bin/Linux/amd64/setup.gtk2[0x8074214] /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2(+0x5131b)[0xf768531b] ======= Memory map: ======== 08048000-08091000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 1752187 /tmp/selfgz99614152/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86/setup.gtk2 ...
So I found that can be helpful, during the transition phase to have a package for openSUSE.
Here’s the recipe.
1: get the binary
wget http://dl.google.com/earth/client/current/GoogleEarthLinux.bin
2: extract it to a temp directory
sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin --target GoogleEarthFixed
3: replace the defective gtk2 setup thing
mv ./GoogleEarthFixed/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86/setup.gtk ./GoogleEarthFixed/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86/setup.gtk2
4: Launch the installer
4a : as root for system wide install
su -l ./GoogleEarthFixed/setup.sh
4b : as normal user to have it installed inside your own home
./GoogleEarthFixed/setup.sh
5: Cleaning !
If you don’t need anymore.
rm -Rf ./GoogleEarthFixed rm ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin
I would thanks people posting this comment
The method should also work for the older 5.2 version
Make vmware workstation 7.1.3 running with opensuse 11.4 (kernel 2.6.37)
November 15th, 2010 by Bruno FriedmannNote about the 2.6.37xx
There’s a solution to make the kernel modules building under openSUSE factory (11.4) and the kernel 2.6.37
Preparation
download the lastest vmware workstation 7.1.3 (the patch is only for this version)
download the patch vmware-7.1.3-2.6.37-rc5.patch
download the script to patch patch-modules_v62-opensuse.sh
Install
Proceed to the normal installation of workstation, if you have older version, it will be replaced
by running under root account
sh VMware-Workstation-Full-7.1.3-324285.x86_64.bundle
Patch
Now we have to apply the needed patch, just run as root
sh patch-modules_v62-opensuse.sh
Here the output result

17:00 I have to fill my feedback form, there’s a Nokia N900 to win 🙂
17:35 So the N900 is won by a Debian guy
18:00 Time to unset the booth.
18:30 All stuf in the car, gnokii too, start driving him back to his car.
19:30 we found the FUDCON dinner event place. ParkPlatz & Zürich, a real love story 🙂
