https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=339736 Summary: cups: PostScript "wrapping" causes additional unwanted output Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix(a)novell.com ReportedBy: Ulrich.Windl(a)rz.uni-regensburg.de QAContact: jsmeix(a)novell.com Found By: --- When printing a PostScript file to a PostScript printer using CUPS, it seems that CUPS modifies the PostScript file before it's sent to the printer. In some cases this may produce unwanted output. Specifically CUPS seems to add this at the end of the PostScript file: %%Trailer %%Pages: 0 %%BoundingBox: ... %%EOF For special PostScript files that use "readstring" to process part of the input file via PostScript, the additional lines will also be processed (and possibly output). A sketch of such code would look like this. %------ snip ------- /process { /buff 1 string def { currentfile buff readstring not { pop exit } if dup stringwidth pop /tw exch def show tw 0 rmoveto } loop showpage } def 100 400 moveto /Helvetica findfont 10 scalefont setfont process Sample line of text to be printed %------ snip ------- In Ghostscript the sample line would be printed correctly, but with CUPS the extra trailer will be output as well. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333727 Summary: Knights, chess frontend crashes due to unresolved dependency Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de ReportedBy: mlj(a)chase.eclipse.co.uk QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Customer The package is dependent upon JACK an audio front end being present. Will crash after about 10 moves as apparently trying to play a .wav file. Solved by installing entire JACK repository contents, The Jack audio connection kit by itself is insufficient. I have insufficient knowledge to resolve the full undeclared dependencies but suspect the ASLA plugins for Jack is the most likely problem as I understand plugins are a common cause of unresolved dependencies.

[Bug 325541] New: left hand USB ports on Lenovo/Thinkpad T61 don' t respond to hot plug

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=325541 Summary: left hand USB ports on Lenovo/Thinkpad T61 don't respond to hot plug Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 3 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Hotplug AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: rsmegal(a)aardvarr.ca QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Created an attachment (id=172683) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=172683) Kinfocentre snapshot Plugging in a device such as a mouse or USB stick does not elicit any obvious response from the o/s for the left hand side USB ports of the Lenovo/Thinkpad T61. The single USB port on the right hand side works perfectly for a mouse, a USB stick and a USB hard drive (Lacie d2). All ports appear to work under windows vista. A Kinfocentre screen shot of the USB mouse successfully plugged into the (working) right hand side port is attached. Additional information: when the wireless hardware switch is turned off, the Broadcom BCM2045B as shown in the attached screen shot is replaced by biometric, which I believe is the fingerprint scanner. -- 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 339735] New: usability: online_update gtk: application popups steal focus from active window

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=339735 Summary: usability: online_update gtk: application popups steal focus from active window 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: Ulrich.Windl(a)rz.uni-regensburg.de QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- The new yast online updater pops up several windows while getting the current updates. When another window has the focus (is the active window) while yast is processing, every popup window from the updater gets the focus (steals the focus from the active window). That is very annoying, because keys you type are sent to the wrong window. You cannot expect the user so sit idle around while Yast takes its time to think about updates (yes, it still takes too long). So far I know that bad behavior only for automatic MS-Windows updates.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=339520 Summary: Multiple segmentation faults when starting with Xen Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: cgriffin(a)novell.com ReportedBy: software(a)b-its.at QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Field Engineer I have the problem on three different computers with AMD X2 processors. One time i got the message: WARNING: Currently emulating unsupported memory access in /lib/tls glibc libraries. The emulation is slow. To ensure full performance you should install a 'xen-friendly' (nosegneg) version of the library, or disable tls support by executing the following as root: mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled Offending process xlock(pid=5759) I can't find a /lib/tls on these computers, but how can i change the used version when the warning is unusable to solve the problem. All the other times when i try to boot the computers i get segmentation faults. Please send me a solution how i can setup the correct version of the glibc.

[Bug 334919] New: random crashes when running xen

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334919 Summary: random crashes when running xen Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen AssignedTo: cgriffin(a)novell.com ReportedBy: wolfgang.weidner(a)hp.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de CC: draht(a)novell.com, duwe(a)novell.com Found By: Development When running 10.3 on top of xen using the packages provided by the 10.3 DVD distribution, (Linux-) userland applications crash randomly. There doesn't appear to be any pattern for these crashes, they only result in coredumps, and, occasionally, kernel/system hangs. Of course, due to these failures showing up randomly, the startup sequence of the system gets confused due to pieces missing in a runlevel that others depend on. This is the most prominent occasion where these crashes can be observed without much effort. Also, the installation to Xen VMs fail/crash. Reproducable under x86-64 HP notebooks, NX6325, which work just fine (well, modulo some glitches in 10.3 elsewhere) when running the kernel-default Linux kernel package without xen underneath. Thanks, Wolfgang PS.: This bug will later be modified to be listed as "opentc project", "demonstrator2". -- 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.
