[tech] Pinball

[Andrew Adamson]

I've reinstalled opensuse on pinball after I found an incomplete, 
nonfunctional install of debian sid on it. Sid is still there, but it's 
dual booting with suse as default. The SOE has been set up except for 
printing and good graphics drivers, which you kinda need to be there to 
install properly. If somebody could look after those two things when they 
have a moment that would be great.

On a side note, opensuse seems to be getting fairly hard to make ldap work 
via yast, as yast wants you to use sssd (which I don't know and I'm unsure 
if it'll work with UCC's setup). I ended up just copying /etc/ldap.conf 
and /etc/nsswitch.conf off clownfish, installing the nss_ldap and pam_ldap 
packages, installing the ucc CA cert, and then it worked. Oh and I purged 
sssd from the system and it can DIAF.
