[Bug 222557] New: Very nervous progress bar during "register resources now"
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222557 Summary: Very nervous progress bar during "register resources now" Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 plus Platform: i586 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: richard.bos@xs4all.nl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com During installation one is asked about "Additional Installation Sources". I selected "inst-source" only. The installation proceeds with "register the resources now" This results in a terrible nervouse progress bar, that is swapping between 0% to 100% to 0% to 100% to 0% etc. When 0% the colour is white, when 100% the colour of the bar is blue. The result is a white - blue flash light :( -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Sometimes it might take a long time, and then people are grateful for some kind of progress bar.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222557 ------- Comment #4 from suse-beta@cboltz.de 2006-11-26 13:32 MST ------- The better solution would be to have one progress bar for the whole installation source instead of having one for each file. Yes, this will make the progress bar "slower", but it is more useful than seeing "100%" for dozens of times ;-) -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

You will need to say something like repomd.xml list 5 files, lets assume each one is 1/5. Then you will have the progress bar stuck for 10 minutes in primary.xml and it will fly parsing the small groups.xml. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
