[opensuse-project] oSC19 Meeting Week 6
by ddemaio 30 Jan '19

30 Jan '19

Hi all, We will have the Week 6 meeting for the openSUSE Conference 2019 tomorrow on Jan. 29 at 18:00 UTC on the opensuse-project channel on freenode IRC. This is the last meeting before the closing of the Call for Papers. If you have not submitted a proposal, please do so at https://events.opensuse.org/conference/oSC19. Additionally, there is an event in Nuremberg happening at the same time as oSC19 that will be highly attended by opticians. The optician event was organized after we already had the contracted dates for the location of oSC19. The amount of opticians attending their event may cause the price of the hotel to increase. Please consider booking your hotel for oSC19 ASAP. The prices of hotels in Furth and Erlangen (cities nearby) don't appear to have an increase in price; same with airbnb prices. Below are the meeting notes from previous meetings. v/r Doug Links: Trello board - https://trello.com/b/xhSviOKO Week 1 - https://community.opensuse.org/meetings/opensuse-project/2018/opensuse-proj… Week 2 - http://community.opensuse.org/meetings/opensuse-project/2018/opensuse-proje… Week 3 - http://community.opensuse.org/meetings/opensuse-project/2018/opensuse-proje… Week 4 - http://community.opensuse.org/meetings/opensuse-project/2018/opensuse-proje… Week 5 - https://community.opensuse.org/meetings/opensuse-project/2019/opensuse-proj… -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

Grub is in charge to load kernel+initrd. No i mean the linux kernel and initrd, i thought u-boot would read those files for grub2, anyway, reading those two takes ages for me. Using a tumbleweed image (and my slow sd card) i have a total boot time of around 1 min 45 sec _after_ hitting enter in grub, where 1min 15 sec is for reading those two files, the rest is for the kernel to boot to the multiuser login screen. >> >>> + a not compressed kernel image (~24MB uncompressed vs ~8MB compressed) >>> >>> + a initrd which ships (even after first installation and "mkinitrd") several >>> kiwi components >>> >> Which components do you refer to?

It means > we'd waste much less space on /boot too! Its certainly not a Raspi thing, as shipping compressed kernel for other architectures is not either, it is all available upstream in the kernel. Concerning arm64, right now we can ship the uncompressed "Image" or the compressed "Image.gz". As noted in my first email i have gone ahead and created a kernel-default package which ships a compressed image [2]. For some reason, i did not find the time to investigate (yet), shipping Image.gz does not work out (no grub entry + no initrd), yet installing and renaming the Image.gz to Image (still compressed), works and boots fine on my raspi 3.

[opensuse-project] No info. re Leap 15.1 in Wikipedia
by Basil Chupin 28 Jan '19

28 Jan '19

For information. I just went to the Wikipedia to see when Leap 15.1 will be released but found that the graph there has not been updated for this information (last entry is for Leap 15.0). But I also noted this entry in the Wikipedia: <quote> Reception Jesse Smith from DistroWatch <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DistroWatch> Weekly reviewed the openSUSE 15, lauding the "work that has gone into the system installer", simplify for new users, but criticized the lack of media support, and performance issues, like a slow startup or slow shutdown.^[49] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSUSE#cite_note-49> ^</quote> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSUSE BC ^ -- God created war so that Americans can learn geography.

[opensuse-project] Problem encountered, Community help needed
by election-officials＠opensuse.org 26 Jan '19

26 Jan '19

As you all may be aware, an IRC debate is usually held during the campaign phase of the openSUSE Board Elections. While we would like to have at least one during this campaign, we are having a bit of a problem finding someone to organize and Moderate the debate. Part of the problem is that the Moderator needs to be fluent in English. Also, we on the Elections Team are already loaded with work. So, we need a qualified openSUSE Member to step up and take care of this for us. It will take a few days, most likely, because it requires using e-mail to co-ordinate a day and a time -- across time zones -- where all Candidates can attend. It also requires preparing questions for the Candidates. Do we have any offers of help? It needs to begin right away, as the debates must be held within the next week, before February 4th.

[opensuse-project] oSC19 date collision with EU elections
by Jan Engelhardt 17 Jan '19

17 Jan '19

As it currently stands, oSC19 is scheduled for May 24–26 2019. However, as circulated sometime last year (indications as early as April 2018), EU elections are to be held from May 23–26; in Germany specifically May 26. This is going to be an issue for those serving as recurring election judges in their local community (occupied more or less half a day on Saturday and most of the day on Sunday). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

Indeed. In furtherance of that point, I am currently helping a colleague investigating an issue with their very new laptop that is struggling to boot with Leap/SLE in certain conditions. We have figured out that this failure to boot is _nothing to do_ with the kernel, mesa, Xorg, or almost all of the usual suspects that people request updates for in the name of hardware enablement. Therefore, we're currently having to experiment with changing _everything_ (ie. using Tumbleweed) and working back from there before filing the appropriate bug that we can at least scope to realise where the problem is. And when we get there, the appropriate maintainer(s) will find themselves having an appropriate bug report(s). And things will almost certainly be fixed. Such is life.. all software sucks in some way, things need to move forward to get better, openSUSE has the luxury of having multiple approaches to solving that conundrum. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
