Recently I changed operating systems to openSUSE 11.0 from OS X 10.3.9. For the first three weeks of openSUSE, I had no problems with applications opening correctly or crashing when used. In the past week though, many applications will not open, or will crash within moments of being opened. An example of this with Kopete: I have been in the middle of a conversation and it just crashed. After a few tries to open it, it would open briefly, then crash again. I think the problem might have to do with how some packages are installed. This isn’t localized to Kopete. Any insight, or any way I could further define this to help would be greatly appreciated.
I’m running 11.0 and KDE 3.5
Thanks.
And you are not receiving a crash report?
Try running an application from a terminal. Open a terminal and type: kopete or whatever app it is.
Errors will be reported in the terminal output. Post them here.
And if you want a new messenger, aMSN is a very good instant Messenger.
I’ve rebooted a couple times, and its seems to help with some programs, but after a program crashed and displayed an error message, I ran a backtrace.
The backtrace message said:
“This backtrace appears to be of no use.
This is probably because your packages were built in a way that prevents the creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted.”
I’m thinking the problem is how the packages were built. What should I do to rebuild them so that they aren’t a problem?
As I said earlier:
*Try running an application from a terminal. Open a terminal and type: kopete or whatever app it is.
Errors will be reported in the terminal output. Post them here. *

Thats the problem with opera.
I think this might be different than before since its specific to opera, manifests itself slightly differently, and I removed almost all of the packages that I added on.
Please see that your java packages are like this

What repositories are you using?
I don’t have all of the Java packages that you do.
Here is a link to a screenshot of my package manager.

Please try this from a su terminal
zypper ref
then
zypper in java-1_6_0-sun-plugin java-1_6_0-sun
I should also point out you need to remove some repo’s, this should do it from a su terminal:
zypper rr 6
zypper rr 10
linux-lzy1:/home/xxxxxxx # zypper in java-1_6_0-sun-plugin java-1_6_0-sun
Reading installed packages...
'java-1_6_0-sun-plugin' not found.
'java-1_6_0-sun' not found.
Nothing to do.
linux-lzy1:/home/xxxxxxx # zypper rr 10
Repository 10 not found by alias, number or URI.
Try
zypper rr Main Repository (NON-OSS)
zypper rr Main Repository (OSS)
or do it manually from software - repositories
have them all on refresh just for now too.
then
zypper in java-1_6_0-sun-plugin java-1_6_0-sun
The main repository (OSS) was number 9, not 10, so I just used
zypper rr 9
instead to delete it when
zypper rr Main Repository (OSS)
didn’t work.
I used
zypper ref
to then refresh the repositories, and tried
zypper in java-1_6_0-sun-plugin java-1_6_0-sun
but I still had no luck as it gave the same message as before.
Main OSS looks like 10 to me
Try in Yast software repositories
remove those repo’s and enable and refresh all
then post back
zypper lr --details
or just try installing Sun Java with the code I gave earlier
I deleted and then re-added the repo’s. I’m not sure what good it will do, because Konsole won’t let me log on as root…
Would there be a problem with me running on a ppc system as opposed to a Intel or AMD chip?
And when you said to delete Main Repository (OSS) I tried z
ypper rr Main Repository (OSS)
and when that didnt work, I used
zypper ref
then,
zypper rr 9
.
OK.
Stop.
I just wanted them deleting not re-adding as well.
Please now post
zypper lr --details
I was getting you to remove duplicate repo’s that were actually incorrectly added.

I recommend doing 10 then 6, as they get renumbered after each
removal. Unless you compensated for that caf.
Duh!
You are correct I think. Thanks for pointing that out. Hopefully if Yast is used as suggested, all will be OK.
