SUSE Linux 10.0 Beta3 Codename "Bangalore" is ready for testing Highlights: - A PowerPC version has been also uploaded. It might not have the same quality as the i386 or x86_64 version, but it is save to install if you read this description from our ppc team before: http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/PowerPC_Documentation - Lots of the most annoying bugs have been fixed. - The ftp tree contains YUM meta data. This can be used with YaST or any other installer using YUM repositories. (It is not officially supported for now) Please report all bugs according to http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Submit_a_bug A list of important known issues is available here: http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Bugs:most_annoying_bugs For now let me just point out the following call for testing We ask everybody for a short check of the Powermanagement and Suspend. Please try to suspend-to-disk and if you notice any problems after resuming please make a bugzilla-entry containing the following logfiles: - the output of /usr/share/doc/packages/powersave/powersave_logs (a file named powersave_logs.tar.gz) - the output of hwinfo --all --log /tmp/hwinfo.txt ( file /tmp/hwinfo.txt) It would be very helpful if you could try suspend-to-ram, too, but before doing so you should read /usr/share/doc/packages/powersave/README.suspend2ram If you have a notebook, we would although ask you for another simple test: Please make sure that you have started the kpowersave ('ac-adapter-icon in taskbar'). Pull the ac-adapter (you should have a notebook with a battary pack!) and look if the icon changes to display the battery charge level. Move you mouse over the icon and check the tool tip if it has changed, too. We had one (strange) laptop with problems, so please help us here.
