[Bug 211520] New: [EXCHANGE BETA] Evolution Password Reset on Connection Failure

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211520 Summary: [EXCHANGE BETA] Evolution Password Reset on Connection Failure Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SLED 10 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Evolution AssignedTo: kharish(a)novell.com ReportedBy: delder(a)novacoast.com QAContact: anagappan(a)novell.com When evolution starts up currently, if it is unable to connect to the remote mail server (Groupwise in my particular case), it will ask the user for the password, even if the password has been saved by evolution. This forces the user to re-enter the password frequently (especially for mobile users). There should be no reason for evolution to even attempt to authenticate if it can't connect to the remote mail server. For example, with the current behavior: Start Evolution Evolution attempts to connect to remote mail server Evolution fails to connect to the remote mail server (network down, routing issues, whatever) Evolution pops up authentication dialog box for password to remote account it can't connect to The behavior should be: Start Evolution Evolution attempts to connect to remote mail server Evolution fails to connect to the remote mail server (network down, routing issues, whatever) Evolution pops up warning dialog to user that it couldn't connect Evolution automatically switches to offline mode (maybe not since that's a global setting and a user might have multiple accounts, some of which are accessable) Thanks, Dan -- 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.

[Bug 206399] New: snes9x: no sound, no fullscreen -> replace it with zsnes?

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206399 Summary: snes9x: no sound, no fullscreen -> replace it with zsnes? Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: sven.burmeister(a)gmx.net QAContact: qa(a)suse.de I installed snes9x and do not get any sound, since it tries to use /dev/dsp. There is no config I found to change the sound-device. zsnes supports sound without any problems or modifications. in the readme for snes9x I read that if I wanted fullscreen-mode I had to start it as root. While I do not think that running this as root is an option, I tried and it failed. zsnes has no trouble to display the games at 1280x1024 fullscreen, without running as root. It is not up to me whether it is wort putting some effort into snes9x in order to fix the above issues, or whether it might be more sensible to replace the package by zsnes for 10.2. I even found a repo for it at: http://bored.homelinux.net/suse/10.1/i686/ -- 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.

[Bug 214646] New: RUG Catalog Priorities
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 15 Nov '07

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214646 Summary: RUG Catalog Priorities Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Zenworks AssignedTo: zlm-code10-bugs(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dominique.leuenberger(a)tmf-group.com QAContact: jtariq(a)novell.com Hi everybody I just made a small check: I installed a minimal SuSE Linux 10.1 (using FTP), downloaded some packages from the FTP Server to a local CacheDir (for building packages using 'build') Then I added that directory to RUG with rug sa -t mount /usr/src/build_rpms rug also subscribed that channel. I have some packages in there already which I used to compile PenguPop ( a multi player Puzzle Bobble, can BTW also already be found in the home:dimstar repository!). SDL for example exists there, but is not yet installed on my base installation. When I now go to the freshly built PenguPop RPMs and type rug in pengupop-2.1.9-1.1.i586.rpm rug correctly determines the dependencies and wants to install SDL. BUT: unfortunately, it tries to pull it down from the FTP Server again, which is a waste of time and resources. SO: long story short request (ENH) I think it would be nice to be able to prioritize the Catalogs (rug sp local 1) and giving them a service priority. Lowest number wins. Of course, still version numbers having the highest priority, but when finding the same package on different locations, it would be nice to have the power as the user to decide / influence where from they are coming. Or has this already been done in later version? I have rug-7.1.1.0-18 on that workstation Thank you for a short reply and some of your thoughts!

[Bug 216217] New: Gnome Control center, YaST control center and Application Browser
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 14 Nov '07

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216217 Summary: Gnome Control center, YaST control center and Application Browser Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: felix.rommel(a)web.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de openSUSE offers the greatest number of graphical configuration tools for Linux. But that means that it can get confusing when including so many configuration tools. Right now there exist: - the new Novell Gnome Control Center (in the following just called Gnome Control Center) which is nicely integrated into the new Novell Gnome main menu. - the YaST Control Center which includes admin configuration tools. - the new Novell Application Browser which includes some Gnome desktop config tools Good: - You already offer some YaST config tools in the Gnome Control Center like setting up "Graphic card and monitor". Bad: - Some config tools are included in the application browser where they do NOT belong to! For example energy settings or setting screen resolution should be in the Gnome Control Center! - You developed a separate YaST2 Gnome control center, which is a good idea but confusing for users. Solution: - Move settings for screen resolution and energy settings etc. from Application Browser into the Gnome Control Center. - Integrate ALL YaST2 config tools into the Gnome Control Center! That means that you only have to move the config tools from your new YaST2 Gnome Control Center into Gnome Control Center. - Optionally you could include an admin password memory like it is integrated in other Linux distributions, where you insert your admin password and admin rights stay for example for the next 15 minutes. That means if you click on different config tools in Gnome Control Center you only have to insert the password once. If you do the solution steps this would be a great success for a more friendly user experience. -- 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.

[Bug 211499] New: Please add GConf border effects key again

In my last Metacity update on 2006-10-08 this option is gone. Have a look at the attached graphic which is from SUSE 10.1 where the option was available. Please add this option again because it is important for users with older graphics cards which use for example kompmgr with Metacity to get drop shadows. If I can't disable these border effects any more, I have to disable dropshadows completely in Gnome cause otherwise my Desktop is too slow when Pressing Alt-Tab to cycle through windows. -- 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.
