[opensuse-doc] Screenshots look terribly in LfL
by Alexey Eremenko 27 Mar '07

27 Mar '07

Hi all ! Screenshots look terribly in LfL ! I have just submitted two made at 1024x768 resolution, but applied them to be 90% of browser instead of full-size. Text is absolutely unreadable. What to do? My recommendation: Make them clickable (on HTML) page, so one can access to full-size screenshots, if he so wishes, to see details. -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-doc+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-doc] Lack of LfL in the latest Alpha !?
by Alexey Eremenko 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hi all ! As I understand there is a lack of LfL in the latest Alpha of openSUSE 10.3 ! Why is this? I would prefer to see it on the SUSE start menu. -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-doc+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-doc] Changing ENV and Makefile?
by Thomas Schraitle 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi, any objections changing the ENV and Makefile? I am asking, because the modification will not work with older versions of susedoc. I hope most people updated to the latest version. :) If nobody objects I will commit the changes in the next few days.

[opensuse-doc] Update notification / XSLT questions
by Christian Boltz 13 Mar '07

13 Mar '07

Hello, I want to mail some documentation about available updates to root ;-) and hope that this makes this mail less off-topic here *g* - I need a bit help from XML/XSLT experts which I expect to be in the doc team ;-) In short: I have written a xsl file that filters the output of zypp-checkpatches-wrapper to send an update notification mail to root. It basically works, however I have some problems with the whitespace. Current output: --------------------------------------------------------------------- # xsltproc patch2mail.xsl zypp.xml *** ERROR *** Some error during calculation happened *** ERROR *** Another error Update sources: ftp.gwdg.de (http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.1) irgendwo (http://ftp.irgendwo.de) === java-1_5_0-sun - Patch 1438-0 (security) === SUN Java packages prior 1.5.0 update 7 allow DOS. Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.5.0_6 and earlier, JDK 1.5.0_6 and earlier, and SDK 1.5.0_6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) by using the Font.createFont function to create temporary files of arbitrary size in the %temp% directory (CVE-2006-2426). === java-1_5_0-sun - Patch 1438-0 (security) === SUN Java packages prior 1.5.0 update 7 allow DOS. Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.5.0_6 and earlier, JDK 1.5.0_6 and earlier, and SDK 1.5.0_6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) by using the Font.createFont function to create temporary files of arbitrary size in the %temp% directory (CVE-2006-2426). Total updates: 2 (2 security) __TOTAL__22__ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The fact that the same patch is listed twice is caused by my test file (zypp.xml, attached) - don't worry about this ;-) Also don't worry about the __TOTAL__ line - this is easier to parse by my script. I'd like to have - no empty at the very beginning - "*** ERROR ***", "Update sources" and "=== ... ===" without leading whitespace - an empty line after the patch summary - less empty lines before "Total updates" Can someone help me with these issues? The xslt and the script calling it are attached to this mail, also the test data (zypp.xml) I used. Regards, Christian Boltz, searching for a good sig ;-) -- xslt, was? Wir kombinieren das Paradigma von awk mit der sprachlichen Eleganz von Cobol und den programmiertechnischen Verrenkungen von funktionalen Sprachen unter sorgfältiger Umgehung aller möglichen Vorteile.

[opensuse-doc] New version of susedoc
by Thomas Schraitle 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Hi, there is a new version of our susedoc RPM packages. Sorry for the delay. Major improvements are: * Russian localization thanks to Nikolay Derkach * Better support for FOP although the XML catalog problem still persists (if someone knows about how to convince FOP to use XML catalog I am appreciate any hints.) 1. Installation and Update Please update the susedoc RPM with your favorite installation tool (YaST, smart, rug, ...). In case you use YaST and haven't added the respective repository, read [1] to add it. If you want to download the RPM package manually, find it under [2]. Choose your distribution and select "noarch". Look for susedoc-4.2_*.noarch.rpm. Please report any problems. Have fun, Tom ------- [1] http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Lfl/Lessons_for_Lizards_Quick_St… [2] http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/thomas-schraitle/ -- Thomas Schraitle ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH >o) Tel: +49-(0)911-740 53 131 Maxfeldstrasse 5 /\\ Documentation Specialist 90409 Nuernberg, Germany _\_v http://www.suse.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-doc+help(a)opensuse.org
