[opensuse-factory] Graphics bug in milestone 2
by Christian Wansart 21 Mar '12

Hello, I'm sorry if this is the wrong mailing list, I didn't know where to post. :) I've just started the KDE live cd of the 12.2 milestone 2 and got this: http://paste.opensuse.org/45192353 It's probably because I run it in the virtual machine (VirtualBox) without 3d acceleration, but I think this should be fixed, if possible.

[opensuse-factory] 12.2M2 HTTP installation - succeeded! (but KDE3 systemsettings fails)
by Felix Miata 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

32 bit, single core, i915G, 2G RAM. I only downloaded linux and initrd and started net install with Grub. I selected minimal server, added packages like kernel-server, apache2 & console tools, and set taboo on various things I want prevented from being installed ever, like grub2, apparmor, kontact, kdepim4, korganizer, hplip, kopete, gtk?-immodule*, bootsplash, splashy, blue*, systemd-sysvinit & others. Installation was virtually uneventful. My first attempt to select Grub left an empty menu.lst proposal, so I aborted and restarted bootloader, checked the other (new vs. adapt) box and got one, only to see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=663749 remains. :-( I zypper'd IN KDE3 manually ad hoc. It opens looking normal, other than a really short list of classic menu selections (no Graphics, no Multimedia, no Utilities, even though such things have been installed), but when I try to select settings in the menu, all that seems to be there is a "Settings" header. When I try to run systemsettings from Konsole, I get this from the KDE crash handler: System configuration startup check disabled.

[opensuse-factory] no (32 bit) kernel-desktop in installation search

All my many systems have been running kernel-desktop for quite some time, but YaST in M2 installation cannot find any such kernel. There are packages named cloop-kmp-desktop, ipset-kmp-desktop, omnibook-kmp-desktop & similar found in search, just no kernel-desktop. Still in M2 the default kernel is kernel-default. Did kernels get renamed again? I remember some list discussion in recent months, but nothing about any name changes resolution.

[opensuse-factory] Update udev to version 181
by Robert Milasan 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hello, I've updated udev to version 181 and officially or non-officially I'm the new maintainer of udev with Petr Uzel as co-maintainer. Here are some important changes: - version 181 - boot.udev: root_symlink_rule now creates the rule 10-root-symlink.rules in /run/udev/rules.d and a link to /dev/.udev (for the good old times). - require kmod version 5. - keymap: Add Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2732 - ata_id: fix identify string fixup - ata_id: whitespace fixes - keymap: Fix touchpad toggle button on Lenovo Ideapad * version 180: - Bugfixes. * version 179: - Bugfixes. * version 178: - RUN+="socket:.." option is deprecated and should not be used. * version 177: - Bugfixes. * version 176: - 'devtmpfs' filesystem is required now, udev will not create or delete device nodes anymore. - writable /run directory (ususally tmpfs) is required now. - there is no longer a fallback to /dev/.udev. - modules are now loaded directly by linking udev to 'libkmod'. - udev links directly to libblkid now. - 'udevadm control --reload-rules' option has been renamed to '--reload'. * version 175: - Bugfixes. * version 174: - udev daemon moved to /lib/udev/udevd. (we moved it back: move-udevd-and-udevadm-back-to-sbin.patch) - long deprecated keys: SYSFS=, ID=, BUS= have been removed. - 'udevadm trigger --type=failed, and the RUN{fail_event_on_error} attribute was removed. - udev control socket is now created in /run/udev/control. I would like ask you guys, if possible, to test the new version and let me know if there are any issues or problems with the new package. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] GCC 4.7: Status Overview
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hi Factory list, A lot has happened in the last days on the GCC 4.7 fixup. Thanks to the tireless efforts of several contributos (yes! I was not left alone! Thank you all for helping) we already have a large bunch of packages fixed to build with GCC 4.7 Most (but not all!) of this went through my home repo, which just helped to coordinate the efforts and to ensure that not any package is fixed twice (well, that was theory...). On the other hand, this allows us to have some statistics as well: I branched a total of 251 packages (all packages failing build in openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Gcc47). Some packages (sorry, no count here) did not need any action, as they were updated in the devel project and as such the branching of them to my home repo showed that no further work was needed (boost, libwebkit and others) A total of 66 SRs were done from home:dimstar:gcc47 to the various devel projects, of which so far 31 have been accepted. Some were 'superseded' (4), and 25 are pending to be accepted or declined in their devel projects. All in all it feels like not too many things are breaking in difficult ways with Gcc 4.7, but still, we're not there yet. I for example did not yet fix Firefox and xulrunner :P The yast side is a bit trickier: I added a patch to yast2-core but there is something terrible wrong, as this causes the test suite to fail. and this even though the patch looks simple enough. Most of the other yast modules fail as a consequence to -core (note: version 2.22.4 from last week built fine with my patch, but 2.22.5 not anymore). So: don't be shy! Grab one of the still failing packages in home:dimstar:gcc47, try to fix it up and submit it (either to home:dimstar:gcc47 or directly to its devel project). If you identify that the failure is not due to GCC 4.7 (there is a bunch of > 150 packages failing in openSUSE:Factory too after all), then you don't have to stop there of course and can still go ahead and fix the package :P (admittedly, I did not do that and concentrated on pure gcc caused failures these days). So? Anybody? Best regards, Dominique / DimStar -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Asus Sabertooth 990FX motherboard - garbage
by Sid Boyce 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

One warning on the Asus Sabertooth 990 FX motherboard, it seems the BIOS only supports Windows. With an Asus Motherboard and an Asus 560 Ti video card it's detected as a radeon monochrome caard so it will not work with a radeon nor an nvidia driver. Only the vesa driver works. I did quite a moan about in in the Customer Support Survey the sent me. Whether that will do any good is anyone's guess. They probably can hire only one dimensional developers these days. The reply from their support was to run Windows on it and report any problem. I told them I don't run Windows ... no further response other than I got a second Customer Support Survey request today.

[opensuse-factory] Milestone #2
by Basil Chupin 17 Mar '12

17 Mar '12

A piece of advice - but your mileage may vary. This morning, as usual, I went to do "zypper refresh/up" on my Milestone #1 installation. This showed that there were (for me) 1190 upgrades to the tune of 890MB. Ah! I thought, Milestone #2 is what this is about. I went ahead with the upgrade. This totally stuffed my MS#1 installation and it is now unusable - it defaults to the (?init 3) root login, and I am unable to compile the nVidia driver. Doing "zypper dup" did not help. My MS #1 is a stock standard one which uses the official repos (except for Mozilla and packman). I suggest that "you" wait until (?) Monday when MS #2 is officially made available.

by Ilya Chernykh 12 Mar '12

I wonder how such behavior could make its way into release: https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=476123 It makes impression that openSUSE is an unprofessional product with bugs in anywhere, even when conduncting simplies operations with zypper. The bug was introduced with transition from 11.4 to 12.1. I have one openSUSE user to whom I help to use and maintain the system but this bug is the reason why I still di not upgrade their system to 12.1 Once they bsee such theings they will immediately think openSUSE is extremy buggy and not production-ready. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

However you can go back to your good old grub1 in the loader type selection menu if it doesn't work for you. This will not affect your existing system if you performed update to newest factory, the current loader will remain grub1. But grub2 will be availale in yast2 bootloader and you could switch to use it if you like. It's welcome to report issues to bugzilla and hopefully that issues can get resolved early before 12.2 release. Although we tried to test as much as possible, we can't guarentee the quality without distributing them outside and get more people's feedback and involvement. :) You could refer to the wiki page for current status and information. http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST2_And_Perl_Bootloader_Grub2_Modules_Imp… Thanks.

The key here is communication and not ignorance, which you showed here: https://build.opensuse.org/stage/package/rdiff?linkrev=base&package=libconf… where you simply chopped a previous submission (by yours truly): https://build.opensuse.org/stage/package/rdiff?linkrev=base&package=libconf… The key concept here would have been called 'merging' and isn't really specific to OBS. But lets go on a bit, after 'working' on that package, you reopened a request to Factory (https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/106980) that was reasonably declined (see our packaging policies). It's rather funny that I wanted to do you a favor with just the above submission and fix your issues ;-) Long story short, I would really appreciate if you could stop pretending to be the one true source of wisdom and try to collaborate with others (like me). And don't try to make your home project the devel project for any other project (please revert if you already did), otherwise I'll make mine a devel project of yours! -- Viele Grüße, Sascha Peilicke

[opensuse-factory] eth0 and dbus problems after upgrade to 12.1
by Dave Plater 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Already sent to opensuse list with no reply yet. I updated via 12.1 x86_64 dvd and because I maintain multimedia, I included a few build service repos in thye upgrade. I used zypper dup from 11.3 to 11.4 without problems but this time there are problems which I assume stem from /var/run being a tempfs. I've searched threads on this list and factory list and googling only brought up similar Ubuntu problems but no real help. First problem was having to manually "ifup eth0" to get my network going, I've fixed that with adding "ifup eth0" to "/etc/init.d/boot.local" but the other problem has me stumped. As kde is starting it halts on a message box stating a similar message to this syslog one, clicking ok continues to desktop : pam_systemd(xdm-np:session): Failed to connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Thinking that this was caused by the tempfs I also created the dbus directory in boot.local but it doesn't fix anything. I'm surprised that no one has reported a bug and it seems I'm the only one to have this problem, it's maybe leftover from my 11.4 kernel getting mangled when I recompiled with certain extra cdc_phonenet options and then when I updated my non openSUSE VirtualBox-4.1 to 4.1.8 my network died. I fixed this with the 11.4 tumbleweed kernel. Please help, here's a section of my /var/log/messages with lots of the above error message and my boot.msg is at http://pastebin.com/Zpn9AnTp , I'm a bit nervous using pastebin for this so it expires after one day. : Mar 7 10:56:02 Arbuthnot kdm: :0[2184]: pam_systemd(xdm-np:session): Failed to connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Mar 7 10:56:04 Arbuthnot checkproc: checkproc: can not get session id for process 2396!

Hi, I just noticed that we should have M2 tomorrow, but I don't think that would be wise - we just checked in a kernel that is supposed to fix compilation i586 - perhaps next week ;( And http://openqa.opensuse.org/results/openSUSE-NET-x86_64-Build0232 doesn't make me look happy either.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I just had a look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/report.cgi?x_axis_field=version&y_axis_field=pr… and saw that our 12.1-Beta got a good deal more bug reports than 11.4-MS6 or 11.3-MS7, so the renaming could have improved awareness of this release as one of the most important points for testing.

[opensuse-factory] Plymouth still not accepted in Factory
by Raymond Wooninck 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

Hi, since already two weeks I have been trying to get Plymouth accepted into Factory. The most feared legal review was done within a few hours, but it seems now that nobody is willing to validate the package further so that it can be accepted. I have been updating/correcting the package based on the indications that I have received unofficially, but now since 3 days the plymouth package is still awaiting review. I have spend quite some time in getting it where it is now and I would like to know what the intention is of those in control of Factory. If it is not wanted in Factory, then please indicate this and I will revoke my SR and keep it as a user-supported package in my own home repository. If something is still missing, then I would also like to get an official feedback what this is, so that I can correct it. I know that there are still some rough edges that needs further testing, but this cannot be done without having it in Factory. Also people willing to do the artwork for an openSUSE branding are awaiting the acceptance in Factory so that they can start their work.

[opensuse-factory] gcc 4.6
by Jason Newton 06 Mar '12

Hi! boost 1.48-1.49 have issues (read: compile errors) with gcc 4.6 versions below 4.6.3 due to compiler bugs, apparently itk 4 does as well. Would it be possible to get a bump to 4.6.3 in oS 12.1 updates? devel:gcc has 4.6.3 but I can't get my obs packages to build against that repo simply by including it in the projects meta conf. I think it would be good to have it in official updates anyway.

[opensuse-factory] harcoded requires to module-init-tools
by Cristian Rodríguez 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

Hi: There are hardcoded requires on package module-init-tools Problem: kmod-compat-5-1.2.x86_64 conflicts with module-init-tools provided by module-init-tools-3.15-1.2.x86_64 Solution 1: Following actions will be done: deinstallation of module-init-tools-3.15-1.2.x86_64 deinstallation of pm-utils-1.4.1-16.1.x86_64 deinstallation of mpt-firmware-1.0-249.2.noarch deinstallation of kernel-desktop-3.3.rc5-2.1.x86_64 deinstallation of ipw-firmware-9-11.3.noarch deinstallation of mkinitrd-2.7.0-52.1.x86_64 deinstallation of pm-utils-ndiswrapper-1.4.1-16.1.x86_64 deinstallation of bootsplash-branding-openSUSE-12.2-4.18.noarch deinstallation of bootsplash-3.3-176.4.x86_64 deinstallation of cifs-utils-5.3-2.1.x86_64 deinstallation of splashy-0.3.13-32.1.x86_64 deinstallation of suspend-1.0-13.2.x86_64 deinstallation of splashy-branding-openSUSE-0.3.13-32.1.x86_64 deinstallation of ksplashx-branding-openSUSE-12.2-4.18.noarch deinstallation of kdebase4-workspace-branding-openSUSE-12.2-3.4.x86_64 Solution 2: do not install kmod-compat-5-1.2.x86_64 This of course prevents using kmod-compat as a permanent replacement of module-init-tools , also kmod-compat does not include /etc/depmod.d /etc/depmod.d/00-system.conf /etc/modprobe.d /etc/modprobe.d/00-system.conf /etc/modprobe.d/10-unsupported-modules.conf /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf /usr/lib/module-init-tools /usr/lib/module-init-tools/driver-check.sh /usr/lib/module-init-tools/weak-modules /usr/lib/module-init-tools/weak-modules2 which will likely break something else, additionally it does not handle suse addition "unsupported modules" which IMHO has no pĺace whatsoever here anyway.If there is such thing as unsupported module in openSUSE, it should warn laud at load time in the kernel message log about this fact or simple be excluded from the distribution completely. My proposal is to remove hardcoded package name requires and make rpm to generate requirements on modprobe, lsmod etc when needed automatically. thoughts ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] New kernel causing blanking?
by Thomas Taylor 04 Mar '12

04 Mar '12

Since the new kernel (3.2) in OS 12.2, I've been experiencing display blanking after about 10 minutes of inactivity. I've tried various methods of fixing this found in the forums and message list but they haven't worked. These included creating a new /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and adding scripts to the autostart folder in ~/.kde4. When I boot into OS 12.1 or 11.4 this behavior doesn't exist. Another possibly related problem, when I try to select a screen-saver in KDEs "configure Desktop", it causes a crash. That is the only item that crashes (at least for me) in "Configure Desktop" and I do extensive modification. Is there a way to tell the kernel not to blank? Kernel version: 3.2.0-2-default (also occurs with desktop & failsafe) Thanks for any ideas on the subject.
