[Bug 326455] New: MPI-Selector / OpenMPI/MPICH etc: Set default when installing

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=326455 Summary: MPI-Selector / OpenMPI/MPICH etc: Set default when installing Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Development AssignedTo: pth(a)novell.com ReportedBy: burnus(a)gmx.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Currently, if one installs OpenMPI, it is not in the path. The reason is that mpi-selector is used, which allows multiple MPI installations. Expected: (a) When an MPI-Package is installed, the post installation script checks whether already an MPI packages is registered (mpi-selector --query); if not, it registers itself. (b) If an MPI package is uninstalled, it removes itself; it would be great that then automatically the next MPI package (if enabled) would be selected. While one can argue about (b), I think (a) makes always sense - especially since on most systems there will be only one installed MPI. -- 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.

[Bug 334206] New: Yast NTP configuration doesn't handle refclocks correctly
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 17 Mar '09

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334206 Summary: Yast NTP configuration doesn't handle refclocks correctly Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: martin.burnicki(a)meinberg.de QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- I've tried to configure a parse refclock using yast2 and found 2 points where yast doesn't work correctly. 1.) If I select "Generic Reference driver" then there is an "Options" field where I can add additional parameters. A correct configuration for the parse driver requires a "mode" parameter which specifies the type of refclock to use, e.g. "mode 2" has to be added to let the parse driver expect the Meinberg standard time string. Obviously the text entered in the "Options" field is appended to the server line, so if I enter "mode 2" here the result in ntp.conf is correct: server 127.127.8.0 mode 2 However, there is also a line generated in ntp.conf which can be used to set up additional configuration options for that device: fudge 127.127.8.0 This line is empty, though, i.e. it does not contain any parameters. Commonly uses parameters here would be the refid, a constant time bias, the trust time, .., so the line could look like this: fudge 127.127.8.0 time1 0.0 refid GPSi So there should be an additional field in the yast dialog where you could enter those fudge commands for that device, and the descriptive text should tell where the parameters of each field would be added in ntp.conf. 2.) If I mark the checkbox labelled "create symlink" and enter the device name to which the link should be created, this might work if I finish yast. However, if I run yast the next time the checkbox is not marked anymore and the device name for the symlink is grayed out. A quick look into /etc/sysconfig/ntp shows that the existing parameters are still NTP_PARSE_LINK="" NTP_PARSE_DEVICE="" so they are obviously not updated correctly when yast saves the configuration. By the way, the NTP package should finally be renamed from xntp-* to ntp-*. xntp is outdated for many years now, and if users refer to that package e.g. in the NTP newsgroup comp.protocols.time.ntp they are everytime told their package was outdated and they should upgrade, hust because it is still called xntp-* while it contains ntpd etc. rather than the old xntpd. AFAIK this should be handled fine by RPM which could have an entry saying the ntp-* package obsoletes the xntp-* package.

[Bug 332186] New: network optimized upgrade of the system
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 17 Mar '09

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=332186 Summary: network optimized upgrade of the system Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins(a)wp.pl QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- >From today experience of upgrading 10.2 to 10.3 from KDE CD I can only say it is too fragile to try it again. Too much time is wasted for displaying (when user is not looking at computer) network errors. Not mentioning it could be total network failure and then what user is supposed to do. Conclusions: user cannot work, a lot of time wasted, bad experience. It seems that only downloading full DVD would solve such problems. But not entirely. But what about such approach. One small CD installer as a kickstart disc -- user downloads it, and burns it. One install manager _program_ -- user downloads it and runs it. This IM would run in current system, user would select what kind of upgrade she/he wants, what packages to add extra, etc etc. Note that at this point system is fully running (something you cannot get with current installer) -- video card, network cards, etc. User clicks ok and downloading begins -- upgrade packages, updates, release notes, firmware, drivers, etc. NOW -- this is crucial. It is just another program in the system downloading stuff. User can still view www pages, write document in OOffice, simply put -- she/he can work! After downloading is finished, user burn DVD/CD(s) of downloaded software. And finally then she/he reboots, inserts kickstart disc, normal installer runs, but all packages are now copied from the burned disc! So there is no weak point in whole upgrade. What do you think? A bit elaborate process, but risk-free, and for upgrade (note, this not for INSTALL!) it could work like a charm. Very fast and safely. -- 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.
