[opensuse-project] Question about netdevice parameter for network installing
by Pang Dawei 06 Mar '13

06 Mar '13

Hello, I want to install the opensuse via pxe boot, add the parameter "install= ftp://192.168.1.2/i386" without netdevice, after loading vmlinuz and initrd, the system can enter Yast GUI installer automatically. I have 8 ethernet ports, how can I know which port is used for installing OS?

[opensuse-project] openSUSE 12.3 doesn't support any video types
by Alexey Eromenko 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Sadly out-of-the-box, openSUSE 12.3 doesn't support any kind of video at all, not even WebM. I have opened a bug on it "Bug 802980 - WebM Video fails to play in KDE desktop", but as release draws near the chances of it being looked at appears slim. Anyway, Red Hat's RHEL6 does WebM just fine, and it is super-important for all Open-Source software to standardize on something, and WebM video (VP8) is the best we have for now. -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Board meeting minutes
by Robert Schweikert 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Hi, Please find below the meeting minutes from this weeks board call. As always if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to respond to this thread or send a message directly to the board mailing list. The minutes are also posted on the wiki https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting#Meeting_2013-02-25 Enjoy You openSUSE Board Board meeting 2013-02-25 Present: Vincent, Raymond, Robert, Will Andrew is participating in a seminar and could not call in 1.) Review Action items - Board report, no progress yet. Vincent will try to get this done ASAP - Hackathon organization + openSUSE team will help with local organization + message from Robert to -project did not result in any volunteers - Summit + Andy is working on Artwork + Robert asked Bryan to manage summit.opensuse.org, waiting for response + Robert asked Peter Linnell to manage local outreach program, waiting for response + Robert will ask Chuck about running keynote speaker search and organize the keynote 2.) Board Face to Face meeting Everyone is still OK with the dates (April 6 & 7), funds have been approved by SUSE. Everyone should make their travel arrangements. Meeting will be held in the SUSE Nuremberg offices. 3.) Events - oSC13 + looks as if everything is on track + CfP was announced last week - Summit + the wheels are starting to roll, see AI review above - oSC14 + we have a draft for a location search announcement everyone needs to review and chime in + should go out next Tuesday 4.) Lack of volunteers The call for volunteers to organize Hackathons has resulted in no response. The call for volunteers to help with the Summit had a low response and it appears that it is difficult to get people to step up and be more engaged with non technical issues. - Should we try to broadcast searches for volunteers to a wider audience then just sending things to the -project list. It appears that we always go back to the same group and always the same people step up (or not). + Broadcasting these searches on news.o.o is definitely worth a shot. + We should reach out to Universities and advertise the organization of a Hackathon as a course project to business students. - How can we get more people trained/enthusiastic in organizing events such as a Hackathon? - All Ambasadors should have a list of things where the openSUSE project is looking for help and show the list at events openSUSE ambassadors participate in. - Can we find a good place on the wiki or front page to show advertise a "Help wanted" list Next meeting: 2013-03-11 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
