OK, needed to compress some files into a zip achrive. Highlight the
files in Konquerer as usual, select compress, zip (has to be windows
compatible), says compressing, then never finishes. Have done this
before.

should be a simple operation

What is the problem with Suse 10.2 all of a suddent?

Maybe not openSUSE's problem :^)

This really pisses me off. Something so simple doesn't work. Everytime
I want to do something in a hurry, this happens. Do I have to search
the internet and do this from th command line? If so I might as well go
back to fucking windows.

I wouldn't do that. The glass might cause cuts in inappropriate places.



Whatever you choose.

Copyied the files from USB drive to hardisk, then it worked, although
there was no compression. 6 ea meg jpeg files compressed to 13.5 meg.
wouldn't call that compression. (2.3 (6 X 2.3 = 13.8)

Now, that's interesting. You didn't mention USB drive.

I popped my Corsair 12Gb USB in and tried to compress two simple files to .zip
format using the "add to archive" method, I got the messages,

zip I/O error: Permssion Denied
zip error: Could not create output file (/media/test.zip)

Ewww!


Using the "compress as" method, I get a dialog box with a progress bar that
sits there way too long.

I do believe you have found a bug.

Anybody else want to test? Anybody got some Raid handy?
