[Bug 234529] New: Gigaset ISDN driver not integrated in YaST
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=234529 Summary: Gigaset ISDN driver not integrated in YaST Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: tilman@imap.cc QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Kernel 2.6.18 includes ISDN drivers for Siemens Gigaset SX255 family devices connected via USB. YaST does not list these devices or allow them to be configured in the "ISDN devices" section. The devices are usable anyway, but only if the user configures them manually, either by following the instructions on http://gigaset307x.sourceforge.net/README.driver-2617 or by installing and running the configuration script from the Gigaset Driver package available on http://sourceforge.net/projects/gigaset307x/ It would be desirable to integrate this in YaST, ideally even autodetecting the device. As one of the developers of these drivers I am willing to help with that integration, but I lack the YaST knowledge for doing it all on my own. Therefore, sorry, no patch ready for inclusion. -- 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.

So, for this task to be complete we need : build and package userspace tools right ?
No, that's a completely separate issue. The userspace tools are not needed for the YaST integration nor for the use of the Gigaset device as an ISDN card. They provide additional, independent functionality like SMS or phonebook transfer which is handled entirely through the character device.
the integration yast might be discussed after those steps done I think,
There's no reason for postponing the YaST integration like that. It can be tackled right now, independently of the inclusion of the userspace tools. In fact, it should be the first thing. Installing the userspace tools RPM from Sourceforge instead of the openSUSE DVD is not so hard. Having to download and run a command line script for configuring the driver so that it appears in YaST as an ISDN device is a much bigger hassle, in particular if this very device is to provide your access to the Internet.
but that is pure descision of the yast mantainers.
How may such a decision be approached? -- 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.

It doesn't show the alternative names for the devices. It offers no way to set the available module options. It doesn't cater for the character device interface which the drivers offer in addition to the isdn4linux one. But it works. It's better than nothing. -- 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.

Maybe we need some extend to the ISDN HW dialog to select a serial device for some of these boxes. We should not have too much options in these HW dialogs, so I'm not sure we can offer all options. -- 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.

Problem still exists in openSUSE 10.3 Beta2.
Yes, see comment 11, feature will appear in CODE 11 ( that is openSUSE 11, SLES 11) -- 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.
