https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=395816 Summary: Installation: Loading the Timezone dialog could be faster Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Alpha 0 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: jsuchome@novell.com ReportedBy: locilka@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=219157) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=219157) YaST log Loading the Timezone dialog in installation takes some time that users are not informed what's happening. For a normal installation, this is only once, but when you go back and forward the dialogs, the initialization is always the same. This is mostly because the Timezone module doesn't remember being already initialized. For a simple solution, this could be used: --- cut --- boolean initialized = false; void Timezone () { if (initialized) { y2milestone ("Already initialized"); return; } ... } --- cut --- See the last few lines of YaST log. The logs comes from going_back=true. Note: this is on a VERY fast hardware :) ;) You see some longer delays on a normal HW. If the _already_initialized_ patch is used, we could import the Timezone when installation is initialized (with a Progress dialog) so that would speed-up even the fist-dialog loading. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
