[opensuse-factory] ssh / VisualHostKey display
by Marcus Meissner 25 Jun '10

25 Jun '10

Hi, as users of SSH probably noticed we enabled VisualHostKey display for ssh remote logins. This is a "visual help" if you login to a remote host where you have no known hostkey yet. An internal discussion showed some annoyance, and questioned this features usefulness. (Basically it is not really needed if you have a known_host key entry already, which in 99% of usage probably is there). So I am currently considering disabling the feature by default again. Any comments? Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Kerneloops with kernel head repo and 11.2 system
by Joerg Mayer 25 Jun '10

25 Jun '10

Hello, I'm running an 11.2 system with the kernel from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_11.2/ The kernel oopses very early in the boot process. The problem has been there for 2-3 weeks (sorry for being that imprecise and late, but I've been very busy for the last weeks). There was a problem with HEAD a few months ago that looked similar and IIRC was some interaction between kernel and boot process in initrd. Is that problem back? Thanks Joerg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer(a)loplof.de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.

Hi, Running factory, my wireless keeps disconnecting frequently. It disconnects in just about 30 seconds after it connects. All the time, /var/log/messages and dmesg is constantly printed with a lot of messages. I am attaching the outputs of dmesg and /var/log/messages The wireless card is : PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] as reported by YaST. Let me know if I should file a bug.

[opensuse-factory] Problem with yast2-nfs-client in 11.3 RC1
by Larry Finger 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

I found a problem in 11.3 M7 in which the YaST NFS Client modules did not create the host directory or the necessary fstab entry for an NFS mount (Bug 608166). A patch was prepared and tested that updated the package version from 2.19.2 to 2.19.3 as is shown in https://build.opensuse.org/package/files?package=yast2-nfs-client&project=Y…. When I check the version installed with 11.3 RC1, it still is 2.19.2 and the bug is still present. Why? What does it take to get the new version pushed into Factory? According to OBS, the build was successful. Thanks, Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] late package version update
by Will Stephenson 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

Choqok 0.6.6 as currently part of 11.3 is going to break when Twitter removes HTTP BASIC auth on August 30*. Support for the new OAuth auth system is being worked on but is currently only taking shape in Choqok SVN, and uses a new external libqoauth. Choqok's network layer has changed significantly between 0.6.6 and the 1.0 beta code currently in SVN, making a backport likely a lot of work. Is it better to include the new libqoauth package and update 11.3 to the ("quite stable" - choqok author) 1.0beta1 code now, and online update when the oauth support is working, or leave as is and add libqoauth and choqok 1.0beta1 via online update? Released versions including Choqok (11.2 and newer) will need updates as well.

[opensuse-factory] yast2 printer gets confused by " in the description string
by Michael Schmuker 23 Jun '10

23 Jun '10

Dear Factory, today I came across a problem I had already with 11.2, and which is still there in Factory. When configuring a printer and afterwards setting a description string which contains ", Yast2 fails to re-read the printer configuration. The problem is that the " is not quoted in the configuration files and causes the parser to give up. I guess either a check for problematic characters in /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/autodetect_print_queues or directly in the gui would fix the problem. I reported bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616687 in this regard.

Hello :-) I know Dolphins like eating fishes :-) but I like to use fish:// from dolphin (to update my photo gallery), but now with 11.3 recently updated it don't work It works right now with 11.2, but I never tryed it with 11.3 before. sftp don't works either (but may be I have to configure vsftp?). ssh and ftp work very well. is this a known problem, or simply I have to setup something I forgot? I googled a bit and this didn't help (konq don't work better) ftp is not that smart, for example, I had to encrease the thread number to allow dolphin to work, & I have to manually adjust permissions (not necessary with fish) - not to speak about security jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.facebook.com/pages/I-support-the-Linux-Documentation-Project/372… http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-fan-page-of-Claire-Dodin/106485119372062?… -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Intel 945G - Firefox showing rendering websites as garbled [bug 602727]
by Atri Bhattacharya 23 Jun '10

23 Jun '10

Hi! I have reported this bug [https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602727 ] with M6 and it is still very visible with RC1 as well. It relates to firefox not displaying the website http://www.cricinfo.com [and probably others] cleanly, but showing a very garbled screen. I am beginning to believe this is an X related problem as I do not see such garbling on my ATI chipset machine. It only happens on the machine with the Intel 945G chipset. If someone who knows about this let me know how I can make the bug report more useful, I would be happy to do do, but at the moment it looks to be a really very visible and irritating problem.

[opensuse-factory] Missing login sound for the GNOME desktop
by Atri Bhattacharya 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

Hi! The login sound for the Gnome desktop that is enabled at "Startup Applications" [gnome-control-centre] executes this command:- /usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login" However there is no file with this id, and executing this command on the terminal simply gives Failed to play sound: File or data not found The correct command, that plays a login sound correctly, should be /usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="login" --description="GNOME Login" If the intention is to disable the login sound for Gnome [which is quite alright I think], this should be done by disabling this auto-startup command instead of having a wrong id for canberra-gtk-play.

Still, broken touchpad drivers should be the minority of cases for which kcm_touchpad or synaptiks can be used to turn the feature off simply.

[opensuse-factory] Tracker set to index removeable media
by Atri Bhattacharya 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hi! I see that the tracker configuration is set to index removeable media by default. However this creates a problem when a connected USB-drive has lots of files, and you connect it for a short while and try 'safely removing' it. Tracker keeps indexing data from this drive, and prevents its unmounting until it is done, which in all fairness can take quite long. It might be better to turn indexing removeable media off by default in the tracker settings for 11.3, just as it is for Optical devices at present. -- Atri -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] GDM screen in case of no users
by Sankar P 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hi, I downloaded factory images sometime last week and ran into an issue. I usually work as a non-root user. But this time I was testing factory in a VM and so did not create any new user and decided to play with the root user. However, once the machine is installed, the GDM screen just shows a small unclickable white line and there is no "Other" click-area, which I can click and login as root. Of course I was able to goto control-alt-f2, create a new user and solve. But I believe this is a minor bug in GDM. Is this worth reporting ? Thanks. -- Sankar P http://psankar.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] touchpad weirdness after update
by Stefan Quandt 21 Jun '10

Hi, after an update from 11.2 to 11.3 M7 moving the cursor with the touchpad only.works if when using more then one finger. (also tap-to-click was initially disabled and I cannot get double-click enabled at all) While playing around I found out that the touchpad works normally in kdm and for unknown reason switches to "two-finger-mode" during KDE startup. Then I had to learn, that when logging in as any other user moving the cursor with the touchpad works normally. So the I concluded the cause could be the user specific toucpad config file. So i moved .kde4/share/config/synaptiksrc out of the way. But ... this did not change anything. Any idea what's going wrong here?
