https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=210881 Summary: switch to microsoft multimedia keyboard layout by default Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: SaX2 AssignedTo: ms(a)novell.com ReportedBy: dmueller(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Hi, in order to properly (without xmodmap hacks) support laptop keys by default, sax2 has to configure the keyboard map to the microsoft multimedia layout. It would be nice if it would do that by default in all cases that make sense (e.g. even non-laptop installations with keyboards that could possibly be such a layout) to make multimedia/laptop keys work on as many machines as possible. the current xmodmap hack is the file in /usr/share/hotkey-setup/hotkey-setup.xmodmap I would like to get rid of that. -- 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 223722] New: Resume from suspend to disk fails after kernel upgrade

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223722 Summary: Resume from suspend to disk fails after kernel upgrade Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: james(a)usr-local-bin.org QAContact: qa(a)suse.de I upgraded to RC1 from the Factory tree. The new kernel image was added to the GRUB menu, at the bottom of list although it was set, correctly, to be the default. This is fine for a simple boot. However, when I then suspended the laptop and booted it back up, it booted the failsafe system. When I moved the new kernel image to the top of list (changing no other settings), rebooted and then suspended again, it resumed fine. -- 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 231165] New: ImageMagick hangs when converting to *.pdf

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231165 Summary: ImageMagick hangs when converting to *.pdf Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dsieben(a)7-net.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de The version of ImageMagick included in openSUSE 10.2 has a problem with converting image files to PDF. I've tested this e.g. with JPEG and TIFF images. In both cases the convert command hangs and never came back until you about it. As I use the pdf conversion of ImageMagick quite regularly I can say, that this was running in the 6.2.5 Version included in SL 10.1. So this might be a bug with the new version in 10.2. I also created a rpm for 10.2 from the latest version 6.3.1 of ImageMagick inside the opensuse build service. Take a look at http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/d7/openSUSE_10.2/ . This version don't have the problem, so I would say only the version included in openSUSE 10.2 has this bug or is wrong packaged. -- 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 219392] New: uninitialized value in addition (+) at /usr/share/YaST2/modules/Bootloader_API.pm line 185

It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables. To help you figure out what was undefined, perl tells you what operation you used the undefined value in. Note, however, that perl optimizes your program and the operation displayed in the warning may not necessarily appear literally in your program. For example, "that $foo" is usually optimized into "that " . $foo, and the warning will refer to the concatenation (.) operator, even though there is no . in your program. the default= setting for lilo.conf did not work I set the linux section manually I added boot=/dev/sda2 manually in the config file editor. -- 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 214263] New: Improvement for LONGTMP - preserve certain (user's?) files

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214263 Summary: Improvement for LONGTMP - preserve certain (user's?) files Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: one_way(a)online.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de For the "normal" /tmp directory, YAST provides settings like TMP_DIRS_TO_CLEAR and OWNER_TO_KEEP_IN_TMP. For the LONGTMP-directory (presumably this could be /var/tmp), there is no such fine tuning possible, like e.g. "OWNER_TO_KEEP_IN_LONGTMP". However, this drawer is completely filled up on my computer, I cannot even summarily delete files as bash complains about a too long argument. Morever, there are some files in this drawer I don't want to be deleted, especially the KDE cache for my user ID (Favicons and so on). I would like to have some setting to selectively clean the LONGTMP, too. So that e.g. I could exempt my user name from a routine clean sweep. -- 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 242047] New: boot.rootfsck sometimes fails to obey /forcefsck
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 02 Sep '08

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242047 Summary: boot.rootfsck sometimes fails to obey /forcefsck Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jimc(a)math.ucla.edu QAContact: qa(a)suse.de When the /forcefsck file is present, /etc/init.d/boot.rootfsck and boot.localfs are supposed to use the -f switch when checking filesystems, causing a complete check to be performed. But to do this, boot.rootfsck has to remount the root filesystem readonly. Intermittently the remount fails (and therefore the check does not happen) because something has files open for writing in the root. It turns out that the culprit is modprobe. /sbin/udevsettle (in boot.udev) waits until no further events need to be dispatched, but the last event(s) may still be in progress (driver being loaded) when it exits. The *real* fix would be in udevsettle, but I've attached a simple patch that retries the remount several times -- up to 10 seconds, though I've seen at most 2 seconds delay needed. The patch also includes code to recognize a boot parameter of "forcefsck", and for completeness I've also included the corresponding patch for boot.localfs. This is in the nature of a feature improvement, but I've found it to be very convenient in system administration. You can include or toss this part according to policy. -- 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 213050] New: More clear default gateway DHCP configuration
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 01 Sep '08

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=213050 Summary: More clear default gateway DHCP configuration Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: cmorve69(a)yahoo.es QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com I must say that I do not use DHCP myself. But looking in a problem with another guy I saw this: - I understand that the default gateway can be set by DHCP - Since in /etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp I have by default 'DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE="yes"' I suppose that Suse really uses the default gateway that the server sets. - When you use DHCP, in the DNS YaST2 module you have the options "Change Hostname via DHCP" and "Update Name Servers and Search List via DHCP" - When you use DHCP, in the routing YaST2 module you can set the default gateway bbut there isn't any "Update Default Gateway via DHCP" option. So the problem is that the lack of an "Update Default Gateway via DHCP" option when there is the equivalent for DNS is confusing. What an user should think? That default gateway can't be set via DHCP? If he knows is possible he probably will think that Suse isn't able to do it. What if the user doesn't wants to set the default gateway via DHCP but wants to set via DHCP the other network parameters? He will need to modify sysconfig? -- 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.
