[opensuse-factory] SuSEconfig clearance: SuSEconfig.xdm
by Christoph Thiel 18 Aug '06

18 Aug '06

Hi there, to continue the SuSEconfig clearance initiative, let's have a look at SuSEconfig.xdm. It's actually a pretty easy case, as the various parts just need to be moved to /etc/init.d/xdm and startx. I already talk to Stefan, who'll take care of this change. Bug #200299 has been submitted :) That's it for this week -- after looking into most of the SuSEconfig scripts, I already got a general idea of what's possible. I'll keep you in the loop with more mails on this topic. Many thanks for the feedback and support!

[opensuse-factory] Change session to Gnome [10.2alpha3]
by J Nash 18 Aug '06

18 Aug '06

Hey! I did a default with KDE as my desktop and now I want to try out Gnome. So I went to Software Management, selected the Gnome pattern and installed it. It installed fine but I can't seem to find it on the Session Type option before I login. There's Custom, Failsafe, FVWM, TWM and KDE on there but no Gnome. I searched on the wiki for some documentation about it but wasn't able to find any.

[opensuse-factory] Current x86_64 Factory: Problem with hal/dbus?
by Alex 16 Aug '06

16 Aug '06

I follow closely the factory distribution, but for some days now I have problems seemingly connected with the dbus-system. Especially it is no longer possible to mount removable media (apart from the old-fashiond "mount" command as root user ;). I cannot exactly pinpoint the date, but I imagine it started around the time when hal and PolicyKit became seperate packages. Problems: In KDE, I cannot mount removable storage (usb and firewire) any longer. A window pops up telling my that hal.something's policy doesn't allow mounting for UID 1000 (my user id). I can't even reproduce the error now, because I just did a reinstall of some packages, and now konqueror's "system:/media"-kioslave doesn't even show the hotplug devices any more :-( On a maybe related note, the kpowersave-icon in my systray is greyed out. kdbus is prone to long hangs and crashes, and if it runs, it only shows entries for "System Bus", not for "Session Bus". Some maybe interesting error messages: linux:~ # /etc/init.d/policykitd restart Shutting down HAL daemon done Starting PolicyKit daemon done linux:~ # /etc/init.d/policykitd status Checking for service PolicyKit daemoncheckproc: cannot stat /var/run/polkit-console/polkit.pid: No such file or directory The Packages hal, PolicyKit, dbus-1, dbus-1-qt (and so on) and resmgr are as provided by openSUSE factory for AMD64 as of today, August 15th. Any hints? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi, I had a similiar experiance and then I noticed that the Arch was not the same as I'm running. Are you running a X86_64? The Bash it offers you being available seems only to be there for i586. I'm not sure what logic is inside rug to choose the Arch, as sometimes it installes i586 rpms on my machine and sometimes it denies it. Anybody some light on that spot? Dominique

[opensuse-factory] Rug and Factory
by James Oakley 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

I've been trying to keep up to date with Factory, but every time I try an update, it fails for some reason or another. It's usually "Failed to parse XML metadata: Can't add repository at ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source: Cannot create the installation source" So after many weeks, I finally have factory "active" in rug, but now rug thinks I'm up to date: maus:~ # rug up No updates are available. The problem is that I'm not up to date: maus:~ # rpm -q bash bash-3.1-27 maus:~ # rug info bash Catalog: ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source Name: bash Version: 3.1-29 Arch: i586 Installed: No Status: up-to-date Why would rug think it's up-to-date when it clearly isn't?

Not so nice is a link to a bug that's not public accessible. But I'm sure it's about the correct fact. So for what release of GroupWise might we expect something like this?

[opensuse-factory] provider problems
by Peter Czanik 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hello, I rsync-ed this night and tried to install factory and tried to install on my Pegasos PPC. There seems to be a couple of problems with providers. I got a message that a total of 37MB of software is going to be installed due to unresolvable software conflicts :-) Then I checked, what's wrong, and got the following: - there is no installable provider for 'yast2-perlbinding' (it is actually there) - there is no installable provider for 'yast2-inetd' (it is actually there) - there is no installable provider for 'gnome2-gobject2' (I don't remember the exact name, but I could not find a package with the same name, it was missed by python-gtk) Bye, CzP

[opensuse-factory] local mirror via rsync
by Richard Meek 12 Aug '06

12 Aug '06

I'm trying to mirror 10.1 updates (and only these, at the moment) for local use. I could of course consider making it public, subject to size / bandwidth constraints, but not until it's working. The wiki section "SDB:How To Create a Patch CD" advises using rsync at ftp.gwdg.de::pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/update/9.2 I realise that 9.2 is well dated, but the structure has changed too - I think (looking at the files for 10.1 on this server, and http://en.opensuse.org/Mirror_Infrastructure) that I should be using ftp.opensuse.org. However, I can't pin down the correct path - can anyone please advise? Once working I'll [try to] update the wiki for others to follow... Cheers, -- Richard SuSE since v5.2

[opensuse-factory] name of the opensuse distribution
by jdd 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

I wont revive a troll nor contest the new openSUSE name. But we have an history and a wiki and we must take care of all that stuff. How will we call the distribution in the wiki pages? what if we speak of 9.3 ? what if we speak of all of them? I propose here what could be written in the wiki tomorrow (or so) I think we could say that "openSUSE" is now the official name _of all_ the suse distributions whatever they are. but... * for the pre-10.2, the name SUSE Linux is acceptable (and can be written as you like, capitalized or not, SuSE or SUSE) * If it's not obvious by the context that the subject is the distribution itself (it could be the wiki or the project) or if somebody want to insist on our origin, one can add the word "Linux" to openSUSE, that is speak of "openSUSE Linux" * at the beginning of a sentence, one can write OpenSUSE, with a capitalised "O" of course all this is obvious, but seen the discussion we had here, better make sure before fixing the wiki :-) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos

Hi, I was also very concerned when I saw the 'most annoying bugs' list today (as I epxected Alpha 3). The worst that can happen to openSUSE is having (again) a release with bugs like the updater in 10.1. Even though they are fixed now, it's still around and poeple installing without an internet connection most obviosuly run into it. If the schedule for 10.2 should be kept like this (which I think it should) then we should try to put bugs away instead of adding last-minute-features and packages. Some might be solved with new packages, some might not. Dominique

[opensuse-factory] Package grouping
by houghi 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

I just looked at http://en.opensuse.org/Patterns I don't see much going on there. Does this mean that this is the final proposal? I have added some, that I felt were missing. Even if they are not selected, I hope to keep the discussion going and we can't afford to get it wrong. The main thing I did was add some graphical enviroments (including CLI) and add office and games. The thing I miss most is 'normal' programs for the end-user. Also would it not be easier to use the current package groups as a start and then go from there? e.g. when I look at just games, I see: Amusement |--Games | |--3D | | |--Other | | |--Race | | `-- ... | |--Action | | |--Arcade | | `--.... | |--Board | `--... `--Toys |--Background `--... Seems like an awefull good place to start. This has been made over the years and I would think it to be a pity to just throw the knowledge away. Also realize that many people who use SUSE for years know where to look, so even if it is not going to be the main pattern, it would be nice to have a pattern "Ye Olde S.u.S.E. way" that contained the familiar groups people know. -- houghi http://houghi.org Personally, I think most sports fans are a little "gay".

[opensuse-factory] feature freeze dates for 10.2
by jdd 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

In order not to do again the mistakes made with the zen update and 10.1, I think we should have _two_ feature freeze dates... One for the _new things_ (patterns, Xorg 7...) and one for the _new releases_ of already used things (Kde, Gnome) I think the latter are already tested by they developpers when the first seems already in a very early stage. I'm disquieted by the "most annoying bugs" list and the _may be_ delayed Alpha 3. I personnally think that a stable distribution is better than the very most up to date one. an other solution should be to use a debian like calendar (I speak of the three distros, stable, unstable and testing, not of the delay between releases :-) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] X.Org 7 for Factory
by Stefan Dirsch 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Hi We currently are switching to X.Org 7 for Factory. This might result in package build failures. Some hints for packagers to adjust their packages: Changes in X.Org 7 (important for packagers) -------------------------------------------- - X.Org libs: /usr/X11R6/%_lib --> /usr/%_lib * sometimes you need to add '--x-libraries=/usr/%{_lib}' configure option (if available); background: use "-L $AC_PATH_X" with care - if prefix is /usr, $AC_PATH_X is empty. - X.Org executables: /usr/X11R6/bin --> /usr/bin * adjust %files section accordingly when required, e.g. when package uses imake - if autobuild expansion errors for libX11, etc. arises: * either add an additional line '#!BuildIgnore: NX' or package 'xorg-x11-devel' to Buildrequires; Update: probably this problem will be resolved inside of autobuild - X.Org manual path: /usr/X11R6/man --> %_mandir * adjust %files section accordingly - Xserver SDK package: xorg-x11-sdk --> xorg-x11-server-sdk * adjust your BuildRequires - X.Org pixmaps: /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/ --> /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/ * adjust %files section accordingly - X.Org Xserver modules: /usr/X11R6/%{_lib}/modules --> /usr/%{_lib}/xorg/modules * adjust %files section accordingly - Mesa DRI drivers: /usr/X11R6/%{_lib}/modules/dri --> /usr/%{_lib}/dri * adjust %files section accordingly - XKeysymDB: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysmDB --> /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB * make sure $XKEYSYMDB is *not* set to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysmDB, but /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB instead - nls/ directory: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls --> /usr/share/X11/nls * only interesting for legacy apps - X.Org fonts: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts --> /usr/share/fonts * move fonts of other font packages as well? /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts will still be allowed ... - Xserver include files: /usr/X11R6/lib/Server/include --> /usr/include/xorg * adjust configure options or Imakefiles/Makefiles - xkb files: /etc/X11/xkb --> /usr/share/X11/xkb - termcap files: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc --> /usr/lib/X11/etc - /usr/lib/X11 is no longer a symlink to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, but a real directory! - /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults --> /usr/share/X11/app-defaults * /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults is still read, but should we disallow the use of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults nevertheless in autobuild? Package changes: ---------------- xorg-x11 --> xorg-x11 +xorg-x11-fonts +xorg-x11-fonts-devel xorg-x11-Xnest +xorg-x11-Xprt +xorg-x11-Xvfb --> xorg-x11-server xorg-x11-Xvnc (not yet available - on my TODO list) xorg-x11-devel --> xorg-x11-devel +xorg-x11-lib<foo>-devel +xorg-x11-proto-devel +xorg-x11-util-devel +xorg-x11-xtrans-devel xorg-x11-doc --> xorg-x11-doc xorg-x11-driver-options (obsolete) xorg-x11-driver-video +xorg-x11-driver-video-nvidia --> xorg-x11-driver-video xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi +xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi +xorg-x11-fonts-cyrillic +xorg-x11-fonts-scalable +xorg-x11-fonts-syriac --> xorg-x11-fonts xorg-x11-libs --> xorg-x11-libs +xorg-x11-lib<foo> xorg-x11-man --> xorg-x11-devel +xorg-x11-lib<foo>-devel xorg-x11-sdk --> xorg-x11-server-sdk xorg-x11-server +xorg-x11-server-glx --> xorg-x11-server +xorg-x11-driver-input +xorg-x11-driver-video In most cases for building X11 apps it should be enough to add 'xorg-x11-devel' to BuildRequires (as before). If you need Xvfb add also 'xorg-x11-server'. And if you're building external input/video drivers add 'xorg-x11-server-sdk'.

[opensuse-factory] Hacking SuSE installation process.
by Samuel Partida 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

Hi people, I don't know if this is the correct list. I'm working on a project related with SuSE Linux distribution and we need to achieve some development skills on SuSE. I would like to know if there are any documents describing procedures on SuSE development. Now i'm interested on knowing the procedure for the creation of the images that linuxrc loads (root, rescue, etc...) because we want to hack on the installation and boot processes. I've been reading at the SuSE Linux SDK at Novell Forge but there is not so much documentation so I've started to download the SDK iso files but I don't know if that is what i'm searching for (basically documentation about building suse from scratch). Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Currently no fglrx for factory?
by Joerg Mayer 09 Aug '06

09 Aug '06

Hello, I just updated my experimental laptop to current factory and fglrx to 8.27.10. It seems that I currently can't get the fglrx to work: When I run --buildpkg for 10.1, it complains that "module ABI majore versoin (0) doesn't match the server's version(1)", when I build for 10.2, i complains that "... - detected X.org 7.2.-1.2, required X.org 7.1.0.0" Maybe it would be a good idea to make sure that this doesn't find its way into the Alpha3. Also, is there a way to work around this? ciao Joerg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer(a)loplof.de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.

[opensuse-factory] Mirrors are wrong on Novell

On http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/downloads/ftp/int_mirrors.html there is at least one mirror that is not active anymore: Belgium > Telenet. mirrors.telenet.be/mirrors/ftp.suse.com/ I know that I should mail the webmaster, however I think it might be better if the people who keep themselves busy with the mirrors could look into that page themselves and see what and if anything needs to change. e.g. Are Need any mirrors be deleted or added?

[opensuse-factory] Xgl: larger that screen windows for OO.o and YaST in KDE
by Silviu Marin-Caea 08 Aug '06

08 Aug '06

I use Xgl + compiz under KDE. Every version I had has this bug: OpenOffice.org windows start larger than the available screen area, and need to be resized. They also start directly in the next viewport, not in the active one. In the active one there's only a few pixels of the left frame of the window. Also, yast sw_single always starts the same way. I have used 10.1, 10.2alpha2, Xgl from the distribution and Xgl from Compiz-Quinn repository. Does this combination work right for anyone? Does it work under Gnome? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

On a newly installed 10.1, the first update it's libzypp. That's fine. After downloading and applying that, there's another libzypp update! That's starting to be confusing. People start asking, didn't the first go well or what? After that, there's a rug update with the zen-updater. Only alfter all those are applied we have a working update system.

[opensuse-factory] Status of reiser4
by Marcel Hilzinger 07 Aug '06

07 Aug '06

Reiser4 was dropped from 10.1. What about 10.2 As namesys has a lot of (non technical) problems with some members of the kernel-list, they need support from the community to get reiser4 really adopted. I think Suse should still be willing to support new stuff, not as Red Hat. Reiser4 is now quite stable (not mission critical, but stable). For 4.1beta the compression plugin will give reiser4 double speed with half diskspace. Even the support of xattr seems now to be possible. So I would like to see reiser4 back in Suse -- at least with kmp-packages, if not included in the installer. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Marcel Hilzinger Linux New Media AG Süskindstr. 4 D-81929 München Tel: +49 (89) 99 34 11 0 Fax: +49 (89) 99 34 11 99 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

As soon as I click yes, it crashes ( disappears ) then comes up with the same question about file recovery..@&@##%#$^% Happens on both Writer & Calc. Can be reproduced anytime. PS.
