https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220668 Summary: german slide show talks about "openSUSE wikipedia" Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: ke(a)novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta(a)cboltz.de QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com I just updated to 10.2 beta2 (to be exact: to Factory from yesterday which is somewhat newer). The slide show talks about "openSUSE-Wikipedia" in the documentation slide. This should be changed to "openSUSE-Wiki". I also recommend to replace the two links to en.opensuse.org with links to de.opensuse.org in the german slide (and to $LANG.opensuse.org in other languages). Sidenote 1: I did not check the slideshow of other languages for "Wikipedia". Please do this yourself ;-) Sidenote 2: There was a similar issue in the 10.1 release notes (bug 162798). -- 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 222059] New: no way to leave YaST2 package installation (on low disk space situation)

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222059 Summary: no way to leave YaST2 package installation (on low disk space situation) Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: hpj(a)urpla.net QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com CC: hpj(a)urpla.net When entering YaST2 package installation in a low disk space situation, there is a bug, that prevents it from exiting from there. Try this: install B2 in say 4GB partition, which should succeed with defaults. Now add a few schemata with lot's of packages. Sure, a warning is displayed about low disk space situation. In my case, it would have enough space, but this check doesn't seem to take the dependencies into account.. Continuing the install process, rpm package installation error dialogs are shown, where the single install operation can be cancelled or ignored (what's the difference BTW), intermitted with low disk space error dialogs, where one should be able to continue or cancel the whole process, but cancelling doesn't work, it preceeds anyway. -- 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 216063] New: Knetworkmanager exhaust allowed time (60s) for wireless connection

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216063 Summary: Knetworkmanager exhaust allowed time (60s) for wireless connection Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: guillermo.gomez(a)uam.es QAContact: qa(a)suse.de I can connect to my institution AP's by manually invoking the wpa_supplicant with a wpa_supplicant.conf file from my institution. I can NOT connect using KnetworkManager directly (supplying the necessary info in the corresponding pop-up windows). Diving into log files, I see that the wpa_supplicant is invoked as manually (except for the conf file) and starts an endless tour of negotiation with accesible AP's till it exhausts its time). I can feed into Knetworkmanager almost all info the config file has, as far as acronyms are concerned(I am not expert): WPA-EAP, TTLS, WPA1. The conf file entries I do not find pop-up options for them are: phase2="auth=PAP",ap_scan=1,fast_reauth=1,priority=6. I do not know if this is a bug or just a lengthy negotiation. In any case: Would it be possible to force Knetwormanager to use my conf file? or Would it be possible to fill the (missing? )info in the knetworkmanagerrc file?. My (working) conf file is: # WPA conffiguration ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant #ctrol_interface_group=0 eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ssid="myssid" key_mgmt=WPA-EAP proto=WPA eap=TTLS anonymous_identity="anonymousidentity" identity="myidentity" password="mypasswrd" priority=6 phase2="auth=PAP" } Thanks a lot -- 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 gives the user the possibility to add other software sources and to add additional software. This has nothing in common with the Novell Customer Center and should not be presented in that way to the user. It contradicts the user's expectations that he will leave the Novell Customer Center configuration dialog when the selects "Configure Later". Furthermore it has no explanation to the user, if the user gets new software or if these channels are additional update/patch sources. It is also questionable if the dialog makes sense during the installation. I don't think so. -- 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 214863] New: missing <IfModule> in /etc/apache2/server-tuning.conf and a strange apache exit
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214863 Summary: missing <IfModule> in /etc/apache2/server-tuning.conf and a strange apache exit Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta(a)cboltz.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de This report covers two related issues - the first is quite obvious, the second isn't :-/ and caused apache to go down hard :-( First: error_log: Syntax error on line 101 of /etc/apache2/server-tuning.conf: Invalid command 'BrowserMatch', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration The BrowserMatch directive comes from mod_setenvif and should be encapsulated in a <IfModule> section. Second: /etc/sysconfig/apache2 contains APACHE_MODULES="apparmor actions alias auth_basic authn_file authz_host authz_groupfile authz_default authz_user authn_dbm autoindex cgi dir env expires include log_config mime negotiation setenvif ssl suexec userdir php5 rewrite proxy proxy_http" Please notice that "setenvif" is included in this list, but its BrowserMatch directive was reported as unknown. Unfortunately, this bug caused apache to go down while it was reload'ed by logrotate - this is the reason why I mark this bug critical. To make it even more strange: logrotate called "rcapache reload" several times. Most times it worked, but one time it killed apache :-( Needless to say that I did not change any config file while logrotate run. I'll attach a (commented) error_log sniplet. As far as I can tell, the relevant error message is [error] (9)Bad file descriptor: apr_socket_accept: (client socket) It appeared 5 times on the failed reload. However, it also appears once on every successful reload. (Google found only some people wondering about this message, but no explanation what's wrong.) BTW: The apache error_log seems to be the only one reporting this problem. There's nothing in /var/log/messages about this (like OOM killer) and my status monitoring also doesn't show strange values like high load or high traffic - the only exception is of course the number of running apache processes. -- 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.

Current workflow: - activate checkmark "include add-on media" - you see the empty screen listing the add-ons (there's none yet) - click "add add-on media" - enter details, click OK - you see the screen listing the add-ons (now with the one you added) Proposed workflow: - activate checkmark "include add-on media" - CHANGE: automatically go to the "enter add-on details" screen - enter details, click OK - you see the screen listing the add-ons (now with the one you added) Advantages: - the user has already chosen to add an add-on media with the checkmark - why should he need to click "add add-on" button again? - you save one click ;-) -- 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.

The official reference validator for markup languages, the W3C Markup Validator, is online at http://validator. w3.org/. The source code is open and public available at http://validator.w3.org/source/ . It is in the W3C's strong interest to spread sources and binaries of their validators to unburden http://validator. w3.org/ and to encourage users to install and use the validators locally or in a local net. On http://validator.w3.org/source/ sources and URLs to binary packages for several OS/Linux distributions are listed. I do provide and maintain RPM packages for openSUSE since several month on my private homepage at http://sierkbornemann.de/pub/tools/w3c-markup-validator/ as well as on openSUSE's Build Service/Software repository at http://software.opensuse.org/download/validators/ . See also http://validator.w3.org/source/#suse . I would appreciate -- no, I want to promote this, if these packages soon will find their way into the official factory tree/openSUSE distribution. Fedora Core and Debian Etch do integrate the W3C validator(s) and its libraries into their official ditribution since a while, and I think, openSUSE should not be far behind and do this as well. It would be a great benefit for all parties.

If you update the kernel of the old system, the menu.lst entry on it's boot partition will be changed, but the entry in the menu.lst of the new system will not. So if you boot the old system with the grub/menu.lst of the new system there is a problem.

I can say for sure that the status of atmel-firmware and ipw3945d was changed from delete to update, agrep was changed from keep to delete (because it is no longer available on the media). Also, IIRC I had to solve some conflicts which I already had solved in installation settings - detail screen. (I know that sounds somewhat spongily (sorry for that!) - I needed some time to realize the buggy behaviour and therefore don't remember all details.) -- 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 211113] New: [EXCHANGE BETA] Evolution Offline Synchronization Behavior
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 23 Aug '07

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211113 Summary: [EXCHANGE BETA] Evolution Offline Synchronization Behavior Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SLED 10 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Evolution AssignedTo: kharish(a)novell.com ReportedBy: delder(a)novacoast.com QAContact: anagappan(a)novell.com This is more of a feature request than a bug, but with the current offline synchronization implementation evolution is essentially unuseable against Groupwise for large mail folders. I have 20,000 messages in my Inbox (certainly more than many users but some of ours have far more and won't ever change) and when I get new mail evolution will sometimes go into a prolonged "Donwloading New Messages for Offline Mode" which takes over an hour. In the meantime, it won't keep checking for new mail and switching mail folders results in a several minute delay before it will display their contents. Is there some way to have the offline synchronization thread run independently of the mail checking thread so that new mail can continue to come in while the offline synchronization takes place? The current behavior makes evolution very unresponsive but it doesn't always do what appears to be a full resynch on ever new batch of mail that comes in, only sometimes. If I can determine under what circumstances evolution performs a full mail resync I'll post more.

In contrast, akregator contains most the Cool Solutions and even SUSE security announ., plus few KDE-related feeds. >From these two, at present separated lists one could prepare quite a good and informative RSS-feed collection for people using exclusively one of the above programs.

It was working fine with SUSE-10.1. KRadio worked. However after installing 10.2beta1, kradio stopped recognizing the v4l radio interface. So I cant play radio at all. Also, I have remote which is not working(in any of the version). Although I have got /dev/input/ir interface through the driver. After several testings(with bttv_debug=1) I found that my remote response is that dmesg shows correct key with "poll up" messages only. No poll down. And finally My remote in non-working.
