https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224816 Summary: Czech translations of bootloader menu Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Translations AssignedTo: cihlarov(a)novell.com ReportedBy: jsuchome(a)novell.com QAContact: ke(a)novell.com When you see options what and how to boot, you can press F1 to get help. Pressing F1 in help window again shows the meta-help. This includes: "Using the Help System The boot loader online help is context sensitive. It gives information about the selected menu item or, if you are editing boot options, it tries to look up information about the option in which the cursor is positioned." In Czech, it is translated as "Nápověda zavaděče je citlivá na obsah. Poskytuje informace o zvolené nabídce nebo pokud editujete parametry jádra, snaží se poskytnout informace o dané volbě." "citlivá na obsah"???? What meaning has this formulation? I had to switch to English to find out what could it mean. Also the second sentence might be formulated better. These texts are in the files lcn/trunk/bootloader/html/help-boot.cs.html lcn/trunk/bootloader/html/help-install.cs.html Other issues (in help-install.cs.html, I didn't check help-boot.cs.html): "Very new hardware sometimes requires ACPI to control the interrupt handling." translated as "Velmi nový hardware může ACPI vyžadovat pro správu přerušení." (it is not clear what is the subject and what is object of the sentence; minor part is stranga couple "Velmi nový") typos: "jádro při stratu zamrzne" (startu) "Bezproblémový průběh testu nezaručuji" (nezaručuje) "Například pokud máte server na adrese a chcete provést instalaci přes NFS adresář /install," (missing address) -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=232403 Summary: Broken DSDT on ACER Travelmate 661 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 5 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: michael.eschweiler(a)t-online.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de As s2ram didn't even work with a minimum console (init=/bin/bash) I fixed the DSDT as discribed at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=122145 and integrated in the initrd. Now s2ram -f -s works fine - but only on runlevel 3 (with framebuffer). At runlevel 5 it still doesn't work but this seems to be a problem of the x-server (see bug 230123). -- 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 219929] New: kde menu -> system seems to stat mount points

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219929 Summary: kde menu -> system seems to stat mount points Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: PowerPC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de ReportedBy: olh(a)novell.com QAContact: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de selecting 'System' from the KDE menu seems to trigger a stat on all mount points. It did have for a few seconds until it displayed the actual contents of the 'System' submenu. Now imagine if any of the mount points were a hanging NFS mount point... Luckily there was only a scsi drive in stand by mode. -- 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 230704] New: yast2/zypper incompatibility: online_update_setup sets invalid zypper option "-d"

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230704 Summary: yast2/zypper incompatibility: online_update_setup sets invalid zypper option "-d" Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: matthias.andree(a)gmx.de QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com When configuring an online update with YaST2's online_update_setup feature and picking the "only download packages", yast writes "zypper up -y -t patch -d" into /etc/cron.d/yast2-online-update which leads to cron mail to root: Unknown option -d Which seems correct as far as the current zypper release is concerned. Deactivating the "only download packages" checkbox in YaST2 removes the -d from said cron.d file. The machine in question has been updated from SUSE Linux 10.0 and runs openSUSE 10.2, but this problem does not appear to be related to 10.0->10.2 updates, but a general incompatibility between YaST's online_update_setup module and zypper. Packages in question are: zypper-0.6.13-6 yast2-online-update-2.14.2-10 -- 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 234146] New: Boot fails after installing to Dell Inspiron 5150

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=234146 Summary: Boot fails after installing to Dell Inspiron 5150 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ammulder(a)chariotsolutions.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com I installed to a Dell Inspiron 5150 laptop. On this machine, the CD-ROM is /dev/hda and the hard drive is /dev/hdc. Before the install, the drive was cleaned with "shred /dev/hdc". The installation went normally. I did not change any settings related to partitioning (I used its default suggestion) or booting (I just didn't customize anything there). When it rebooted after installing software, the boot hung on a black screen (before any Grub menu or text appeared). When the install CD was in the drive and I let its boot menu timeout, it went to a black screen, printed something like "booting from hard drive..." and then froze there with nothing else on the screen. I booted in rescue mode and manually ran "grub-install /dev/hdc" and rebooted, and then I got the expected Grub menu and things worked normally. I'm not sure if this is related to the fact that the disk was previously shredded, or that the hard drive is not /dev/hda as you might expect, or something else, but it was sure a little frightening to have it hang on boot. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223857 Summary: yast2-bootloader UI: location uses checkboxes Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: odabrunz(a)novell.com ReportedBy: jsuchome(a)novell.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com yast2-bootloader, in part of configuration bootloader location shows checkboxes with labels where to boot from (Boot Part, MBR, Root Part, Custom). Is there any reason for using CheckBox instead of RadioButton? With CheckBoxes, it is possible to select more items or even select nothing at all, but these situations don't have sense. RadioButtons force selecting only one option. Please switch back to using RadioButtons instead of CheckBoxes after 10.2. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208870 Summary: Bad grub location selected Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: 64bit OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: hugo.costelha(a)gmail.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com I had SUSE Linux 10.1 installed, and I was trying openSUSE 10.2, to help improving it by bug reporting. I had just one SATA drive installed with SUSE 10.1, so I installed an IDE hard-drive and started openSUSE 10.2 installation from the CDs. Initially openSUSE 10.2 sugested to use the SATA drive, so I changed it to use the IDE drive, and proceeded with the install. When it made the first reboot, the old (SUSE 10.1) GRUB appeared (with no reference to openSUSE 10.2) and booted the 10.1. So, the grub install location was badly selected. -- 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.
