Not sure if this is the right place to post, if not let me know where.
I am trying to use the Suse Studios to put together a very slim web browser.
I built with minimal and Gnome desktop and can’t seem to get Chromium to work.
We have a high speed cable connection so I used DCHP
What are the bare minimums I need on a:
Intel Celeron 1.8 GHz w/ 1G DDR ram
vga controller intel 82845G
ethernet card intel 82540EM
to run Chromium and VLC
Hi
Moving to the SUSE Studio Forum, will follow soon.
nntp users please wait until the move is completed.

What do you mean by you can’t get Chromium to work? Does it install?
Does it launch and just fail on certain pages? Can you get it to install
on a system of your own outside of SUSE Studio? If it fails to launch
what errors do you see? Same with VLC.
Seeing a package’s dependencies is pretty easy even before it is installed:
rpm -q --requires -p /path/to/google-chrome-stable-blahblah.rpm
Good luck.

Hi
Thread now moved
In the test drive, no matter how I configure it, it fails to launch. Click the icon, it appears to be loading and then nothing.
VLC is working.
My room mate has an older machine in which no matter what I try,streaming web videos are jerky.
We have tried Debian xfce, Ubuntu xfce, Mint 9, Mint 10, Mint xfce and the videos do the same thing. Thought I would get away from the Debian based distro and see what happens.
We have high speed internet service, and the streaming downloads on his machine just as fast as it does on mine. Watching on mine it looks as good as a dvd, on his it appears to be a series of still shots flickering at about a one per second. I was hoping to be able to put together a very minimal distro, all he does is get on the net to watch videos or watches movies, nothing more. He has no interest in any thing else.
I was wondering what the least amount of packages I could install in Gnome and get away with this, in hopes that a slimline distro would clear up the streaming issues.

Whenever something doesn’t load properly (regardless of distribution or
OS) try to load it from the command line to see if there is anything
obvious being displayed.
Good luck.

No output at all? That’s surprising. Not sure what else to do without
getting serious with tools like strace. These are what my system shows as
requirements for google-chrome-stable:
lsb >= 3.2
libasound.so.2()(64bit)
libcairo.so.2()(64bit)
libgconf-2.so.4()(64bit)
libnss3.so(NSS_3.12.3)(64bit)
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0()(64bit)
libsqlite3.so.0()(64bit)
libbz2.so.1()(64bit)
libXss.so.1()(64bit)
libjpeg.so.62()(64bit)
wget
xdg-utils
zlib
You could do a quick check to verify something provides all of these:
rpm -q --requires google-chrome-stable | awk ‘{print $1}’ | xargs rpm -q
Good luck.

Will that work in the test drive? I’ve only burn one ISO and it did not work so I have been testing them in test drive. So far none have worked. Do you have to include any dependencies before installing Chromium? VLC let me know I didn’t have one of the lib files and I had to go find the right repo.

I would assume the command would work in test drive, yes… the test drive
is pretty complete so it should be fine. Perhaps you should try adding
Chromium after finishing the build in Test Drive so that any missing
dependencies will error there instead of maybe being hidden behind the
SUSE Studio scenes and allowing the install incorrectly.
Good luck.

Hi
That’s what I normally do if it’s giving issue, run it up in a virtual
machine then pick up any funnies etc.

Thanks guys, I will give that a try and tell you how it went.
I left Chrome out of the build, then the add/remove software installer failed to connect to any of the repos for the refresh.
This is my first attempt at using a non-Deb system, so I’m unfamiliar with the CL commands for installing software, and
really don’t think it would work considering its not connected to the repos. <Shrugs> Suggestions?
I got a question about suse studio. I have never tryed the software itself, but thinking on using it.
If i want to create a firmware-like thingie, with live-cd installer…
This system should start a propiretary software, automatically after the computer turns on (boots from cd or dvd, or hard disk, does not matters, live dvd should contain install function!) and requires **internet connection **and 3d hardware acceleration, without any user interactivity (except, typing the password is okay).
-Needs to detect the hardwares every time the system boots - for example, it should work with ati, nvidia, intel, etc graphics cards. Last time i switched the graphics card with my installed suse, it just not booted any more, i haved to recreate xorg.conf manually and install the official drivers becouse the opensource drivers not even moved on the computer any more.
-Last time i changed the **sound **card, sound system in suse crashed forever and it was even able to fixed even with suse scripts, i had to repair it in console mode by executing some scripts.
-User will not touch the console, ever.
-System allows to remove suse and novell logos? I want to create own logo into it, and want to redistribute it, i dont want that novell name to be connected with this system, also novell would not like the ideology behind that stuff.
Are the situation changed about this? Is suse studio ideal for me to manage the above mentioned system with full hardware autodetect, hardware graphics acceleration with nouveau/radeondri, or i should base my system on a different distribution, for example, ubuntu or sabayon?

So, let me see if I understand this correctly - you want to use SUSE
Studio to do something that you don’t think the openSUSE project, Novell,
SUSE, or Attachmate will like or agree with, and you want the benefit of
all the work they put into building SUSE Studio without giving them
credit for making the tool available?
Sure, you probably could do that, but I would consider it to be not the
most ethical thing to do. It might also violate licensing terms, which
could land you in legal trouble (I’m not a lawyer, nor do I play one on
TV).
I do know you can use it to build a LiveCD with a proprietary software
package on it - I’ve done that myself (built a system that uses the
Nomachine NX client on it, runs it automatically, and does nothing
else). But I would never consider not giving credit where it’s due, so I
haven’t tried to remove the branding, nor would I.

Thank you for your answer, i dont want to violate copyrights, so SuSE studio is not the tool for my goal.
… hmm i changed my mind, its not a tragedy to write out somewhere that the stuff is packed together with suse studio.
