https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204324 Summary: X installer refuses to start on i815 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mrmazda(a)ij.net QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com This is a Dell GX150 with 512M RAM and onboard i815 video. I tried 3 times to install factory from FTP. Each time I got the message "can't start X server" and got dumped into text install. First I tried twice with the 28 Aug linux and initrd, which I had downloaded to /boot, then with the then current 31 Aug versions. I later tried the 4 Sept. boot.iso CD and got the same problem.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204749 Summary: Installation locks after loading kernel Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: atolboo(a)hotmail.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com I am trying to install openSUSE 10.2 Alpha 4 but it locks after the Linux Kernel is loaded. Selecting the F3 800x600 or 1024x768 or 1280x1024 mode results in a black screen after the kernel is loaded. F3 Text Mode or VESA mode results in a screen with a lot of lines scrolling over the screen after the kernel is loaded and stops with: NET:Registered protocol family 2. Perhaps this related to bug 204647. A check of the CD in SUSE 10.1 Yast>Mediacheck gives the result OK. -- 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.

("Versionskonflikt. Die Datei liegt in einer falschen Version vor.") Well, this might be.

If I try to open it in ooimpress, I get the error: "Read error. The file is no WinWord97 file." ("Leseproblem. Die Datei ist keine WinWord97-Datei"). I agree, but it ends in *.ppt and even if I choose the PPT rather than the default filter, I get the same error message.

[Bug 208142] New: AppArmor and symlinked directories
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 27 Nov '06

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208142 Summary: AppArmor and symlinked directories Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: AppArmor AssignedTo: dreynolds(a)novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta(a)cboltz.de QAContact: dreynolds(a)novell.com AppArmor has a problem with symlinked directories: It always uses the symlink target when matching the ruleset. The same happens for mount --bind mounted directories. This means you have to change lots of profiles if you symlink /tmp to /var/roottmp for example. I'd like to see an option to allow symlinks and mount --bind - of course with a well-defined list of allowed symlinks to keep it secure. For example, there could be a global config file with something like Alias /tmp /var/roottmp which basically has the same results as changing the /tmp directory in all profiles, but with less work (which would probably also be less error-prone). (Variables don't really do this job - people can move and symlink nearly every directory.) (This was discussed on apparmor-general some weeks ago: http://forge.novell.com/pipermail/apparmor-general/2006-August/000120.html ) -- 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 205062] New: userspace swsusp does not support invoking ACPI methods before suspend (aka "platform" mode)
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 24 Nov '06

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=205062 Summary: userspace swsusp does not support invoking ACPI methods before suspend (aka "platform" mode) Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: seife(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de CC: hmacht(a)novell.com, behlert(a)novell.com, pavel(a)novell.com while integrating userspace swsusp (package suspend) into the distribution, i found out that it does not support the invoking of the appropriate ACPI methods before suspend (known as "platform" mode in the in-kernel-swsusp). Since an important development machine (mine :-) depends on those methods to correctly notify about battery and ac adapter status after resume, this bug is rather critical. There have been patches posted to the suspend-devel mailinglist for both kernel and userspace to adress this. Once the kernel patch is integrated in our kernel, i will adopt the userspace package. Since we (Pavel) are basically "upstream" for this feature, it should go into the SUSE kernel even if it is not yet in -mm or -linus. -- 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.
