Dear Lazyweb,

Does anyone have suggestions on what to use for centralized storage at home? I have a lot of music/photos here piling up and would like to put them on some energy-efficient NAS box. Ideally it would have some sort of of built-in backup solution as well. A lot of the NAS-in-a-box solutions seem to have RAID 1, but that really only helps for HA. I am more concerned with never ever losing this stuff than having it available 24/7.

After you have the domain from Godaddy it't time to change the default parking option in order to put your nameservers for domain. First you need to register your new nameservers with them and only after that to change the nameservers for your domain, otherwise you will see a nice "ERROR DETECTED" message. So, here is what you have to do:

Your Account  --> Domains --> All My Domains --> (select your domain) --> Host Summary (add)

Enter ns1 and its ip address click OK, and do the same step for ns2 with its ip address.

Now you are ready to put and to use your new registered nameservers for your domain.

That's all.

In order to give an answer about “Why this package will be installed and who needs it?” I have added a new Dialog in the QT single package selector:

Select one item (pattern, package) in the single selection frame, use the right mouse button and select “Show solver information”. A solverrun will be made for this item and the result will be shown with this dialog.

• Black arrow : This item will be required by….
• Green arrow: This item will be recommended by…
• Green boxes: This package is already installed
• Grey boxes: This package will be installed
• Blue boxes: Patterns

You can navigate through the tree via the overview frame:

After you have selected one item in the tree you can see more information about:

e.G. this item will install two further patterns due to the shown dependencies.

In order to decrease the complexity of the tree you can blind out:

• already installed packages
• recommended packages/patterns

So you will get a shrinked tree:

Technical Background:

This is a simple Qt Dialog widget which can be used in other programs too. ( Package libqdialogsolver1)

YaST uses this widget as a YaST plugin. So if this package is not available you will get a popup in single selection only.

• Get and build Mono from SVN.
• Get and build the Mono Debugger from SVN.
• Get MonoDevelop from SVN.
• At the MonoDevelop's top-level directory, run './configure --select'. Make sure the extras/MonoDevelop.Debugger.Mdb add-in is selected (and/or extras/MonoDevelop.Debugger.Gdb if you want GDB support).
• Build MonoDevelop.
  

These three openSUSE posters have been up for a while, but I now have the SVG files up so people can edit them, add their LUG or openSUSE Local User Group name/logo & address to them, change the design, etc. They are up on the Miscellaneous Artwork page, so our community can use them for flyers, posters, or to spam their neighbor’s mailboxes*. Comments, questions, or suggestions about the posters? Use that comment box below, folks ;-).

*Neither Kevin Dupuy, the openSUSE Project, nor Geeko endorse plastering people’s mailboxes with a bunch of openSUSE flyers. Save the trees, use email instead ;-).
