[opensuse-factory] An adventurous update to beta2...
by Christian Boltz 28 Aug '07

28 Aug '07

Hello, I just updated my 10.2 to 10.3 beta2 and, well, it was a bit adventurous ;-) and I'm asking myself if someone has tried to install beta2 as update - there are too many obvious bugs, and some of them are critical from my POV :-( Installation source: Factory tree + non-OSS tree, mirrored yesterday Just a short overview about the problems I had as short overview: - my 10.2 partition is only offered for update if I select "show all partitions" (and: no, I don't think that https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299667 is invalid - the solution would be to ask for the password of the encrypted partition earlier) - /etc/cryptotab is not converted to /dev/sd*, so mounting encrypted partitions while installation fails - /etc/fstab is also not converted, so mounting everything except / fails - /boot/grub/device.map also wasn't modified, resulting in a failure at bootloader installation - installing the kernel also failed because mkinitrd was still trying to use hda - workaround: change fstab manually - the tab order in the dialog to add an add-on repository is broken - the pattern "update test packages" does not drop in any of the "update-test-*" packages - I had the latest KDE packages from Buildservice on 10.2, and the beta2 installation had to downgrade them. This resulted in lots of conflicts, YaST even marked the beta2 KDE packages with "arch change" and did not honor what I chose in the conflict dialog. I had to go to the packages mask and mark the KDE packages to be refreshed. - strange version difference: I'm still using agrep from SUSE 8.2, which is version 4.0 (newer releases didn't contain it) and now re-appeared with version 0.7. - on the first run, the installation aborted unexpectedly, probably because the y2logs and a testcase needed too much RAM. Sidenote: I have 1GB RAM... Next run without testcase generation worked, but still created ~300 MB y2logs. Question: does "manual" mode create bigger logs does this always happen? (reason for manual mode: linuxrc forces me to manual installation mode because it doesn't find my HTTP installation source in the first run - already filed a bug about this) Anyways, expected result is a warning "out of RAM, please cleanup the logs or add swap." - oh, just after clicking "accept" in the pattern details view, I got about 200 MB additional y2log in 10 seconds... - dependency check is quite slow when you have many conflicts (but fast after you have solved them) - for OpenOffice, thesaurus packages are installed for lots of languages I never use. I'd expect to only have packages for my system language by default. - Some packages unselected in pattern details (the OpenOffice thesaurus packages) were re-selected after clicking "packages" in the proposal - which means YaST does changes after a user has done a per-package selection in the pattern details view - what about gtk-qt-engine? It conflicts with kcm_gtk... - java_1_4_2_sun_jdbc also caused a conflict, maybe it should be obsoleted by a current (1.5.0) package - YaST didn't display the slide show, dunno why - installation of several non-OSS packages failed with error message "Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 623: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize [...]" %post failed with exit status 127 affected: nspluginwrapper, acroread, flash-player, RealPlayer - according to the y2log, the downloaded release notes have version 10.2.3 which is obviously older than 10.3.5 in Factory - SuSEconfig.zzzopt_gnome-compat code looks ugly code, it should have more than one FIXME ;-) - opensuse-updater is not obsoleted by opensuse-updater-kde, so I have installed both of them now And some things I already found in the running system: - something seems to run "insserv -r boot.crypto" while installation, so my encrypted partition wasn't mounted at boot (workaround: insserv it again) - opensuse-updater (the old one, still running after the update) lists also *packages* to update, not only patches (intended?) - opensuse-updater (again the old one) has a grey, empty area at the bottom - where's the patch description? - the new opensuse-updater-kde initially shows only an overview. I'm not yet sure if I really like this (for me it's a click more to see the available updates) - so please add an "always show details" checkbox. - YOU doesn't display information about packages, just lists the patches (empty list at the right section of the window) I would be happy if someone could add a short note to every item if it is already known or if I need to file a bugreport ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz PS: I'll now going to verify if all YaST modules support the help parameter (bugs 269886 to 269914) to get a better feeling... -- > Am Besten wäre natürlich, den Owner von /dev/usbkabel ;-) zu > überprüfen *g* Dieses Device ist IMHO aber erst im neuen Kernel vorgesehen. Hast Du da etwa schon einen Patch für den SuSE-Kernel? ;-) [> Christian Boltz und Harald Krause in suse-linux] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-factory] NTP Daemon not working [Solved]
by Andreas Hoffmann 27 Aug '07

27 Aug '07

Hi Andreas, Hi all, The problem is solved in Beta2 now. I looked in the /var/log/audit/audit.log and it was due to the app armor profile which denied the creation of the network soket for the ntp daemon. Thanks everyone for the fast and quick help :) Best Regards Andreas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] No sendmail in 10.3 beta 1
by David Bolt 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

While performing an upgrade from alpha6 to beta1, having skipped alpha7, I've noticed that sendmail isn't included on the DVD. There is no mention of it no longer being included in the announcement on the announce mailing list, nor on: <URL:http://en.opensuse.org/Factory/News> So, is this purely an oversight and, for some reason it never made it onto the DVD[0], or is sendmail being dropped from the installation media? [0] This is my guess, as it was on alphas upto alpha7.

[opensuse-factory] Beta2 problem with radeon graphic card.
by Piotr Miszczak 25 Aug '07

25 Aug '07

Hi, I have problem since beta1 (in beta2 too) with ATI Radeon X1150 integrated graphic card. System boots normally until X starts. Then is only the black screen witch square (about 1cm big) mouse cursor, no kdm. It's happening with "radeon" diver, after changing driver to vesa system boots just fine. I think it's driver problem. Because in Alpha7 everything works ok. If I now change xorg-x11-driver-video from 7.2-159 (beta2) to version 7.2-140 (alpha7) system boots ok. Drivers from Beta1 don't work too. Any suggestions, others explanations.
