[Bug 255686] New: gdm-gdmsetup.patch needs a review
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 09 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=255686 Summary: gdm-gdmsetup.patch needs a review Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke(a)gmx-topmail.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de gdm-gdmsetup.patch will not apply to the next gdm version (2.18 final) and needs to be reviewed. Some background info: In the past, gdmsetup.desktop had Exec=gdmsetup and TryExec=gdmsetup without full paths. Therefore the .desktop file was only shown to root because gdmsetup is $(sbindir)/gdmsetup and non-root users don't have $(sbindir) in their path. Then, upstream decided to change to TryExec=@sbindir@/gdmsetup, but keep Exec=gdmsetup. This way, the .desktop file is shown to all users, but works only for root. Other users just get a "no such file or directory" message (bug 210943). We fixed this by effectively reverting the upstream change. In gdm 2.18.0, this bug is fixed, but in a different way. Now there is TryExec=@sbindir@/gdmsetup and Exec=@sbindir@/gdmsetup. The patch will no longer apply and the .desktop file will be shown to all users. Instead of a "no such file or directory" message, non-root users will get a "you have to log in as root" message. Someone has to decide what should happen: - Don't show it to non-root users => The patch needs to be extended to revert *both* upstream changes (Exec *and* TryExec). - Show it to non-root users and live with the "you have to log in as root" message => Drop the patch entirely. - Show it to non-root users, but make it also ask for the root password => Replace the patch with a different one so that gdmsetup is launched with gnomesu. -- 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 272829] New: Open Suse Updater - Corruption in application and error responses
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 07 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=272829 Summary: Open Suse Updater - Corruption in application and error responses Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: scocoo(a)tpg.com.au QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Open Suse Update Application was fully functional without errors The only change to the environment was activating the Automatic Online Update application in Yast at a later point in time. After a 24 hour period expired the applet changed to a triangle with exclamation mark - see attached. Initial error response whilst hovering over alert was Error The updater could not access the packet manager engine. This usually happens when you have another application (like Yast) using it at the same time. Please close other application. The Yast configured automatic update was de-activated. The applet was closed and then re-opened into system tray with same outcome. The applet was then closed and system rebooted. *Applet remained on alert. The applet was opened and add/remove update source was opened with initial error response run is not in path Followed by the usual display of installation source and optional advanced configuration details which were greyed out. The applet was accessed and the "configure applet" was opened. A change was made from default to Novell Zenworks and oked. Applet then changed to normal functionality. The applet was accessed and the "configure applet" was re-opened and set to "default" *An unfortunate event then took place, the previous update source was non responsive and indicated update source was down and or possible corruption in DNS resolution of site. (Update source selected by automated registration was in Russia and functioned perfectly at first.) I opened Yast and opened installation sources. Error response was received indicating update source was not responsive and asked if I wanted to remove update source. I deliberately chose NO and closed the application, however the source was removed. The applet appeared to be functioning without errors now and a new source I opened Yast to auto register a new update source and a mirror in Australia was chosen. *Update functionality was not restored and applet issued no error responses, however when accessing the add/delete installation source was accessed instead of the usual green configuration screen Yast opened the Yast Catalogues and other open suse configuration details were not accessible. I understand this is an enormous sequence of events, some of which * are not logically understood. However it is theorised the it is possible to faithfully reproduce the corruption by activating the Yast Automatic Online Update - time initiated application whilst the open suse online update application has its own time initiated update schedule in place. Attached is Yast log files and image of open suse update application icon. Every care has been taken to state the sequence of events clearly and consistently - whether or not some * of the process has anything to do with the initial and presumable re-producible of corruption is severely questionable. Please advise if any further log files are required IF this cannot be re-produced in a test environment. -- 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 291324] New: Sysinfo Screen does not show software raid information

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=291324 Summary: Sysinfo Screen does not show software raid information Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de ReportedBy: rccj(a)ricreig.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Created an attachment (id=150828) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=150828) hwinfo --disk Because of another bug with DMRaid (reported elsewhere) requiring raid45 and raid456 module not providing this, I temporarily gave up attempting to configure fake-raid DMraid 5 and configured my 4 drive SATA set as a MD Raid 5 software raid set sucessfully and have loaded it with almost 1 TB of data repeatedly to test for speed and reliability. My goal is to still make the fake-raid function, but for now, this has to suffice. When I press the 'My Computer' icon on my desktop, I get a very nice display showing my system resources (attachment). However, my MD0 software raid is not attached. If I use the kcmdf desktop applet to show disk usage, it does show the raid array correctly (also in the attached screenshot). Attached also is my hwinfo --disk. The motherboard is an ASUS M2NPV-VM with hardware fake-raid support turned on in bios but not recognized by SUSE (though DMRaid sees it fine were it not for the above mentioned raid45 bug). -- 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 286842] New: Build-in floppy drive does not mount when logged in as domain user
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 07 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=286842 Summary: Build-in floppy drive does not mount when logged in as domain user Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: sloncho(a)gmail.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Hi, There is a problem with build-in floppy mount/umount and device icon display, when logged in as a domain user (NT4 domain). Bellow are details of the problem, and comments how it behaves when logged in as a local (not domain) user. I posted this problem on the opensuse list as well on June 21 2007. Details (all statements are for domain user logged in, unless otherwise stated): Very fresh install of 10.2 32 bit, updated10 minutes ago, with the latest KDE 3.5.7 release 43.1. 1. I can not see the floppy icon anywhere. I enabled in the desktop config to show device icons, including mounted and unmounted floppy, but it's not on the desktop. It does not show in System/Storage media in konqueror. In "My Computer" after the CD-ROM drives, there is a small floppy icon, but there is no underlined text after it, and the icon is not clickable. Local user: same 2. In /etc/fstab I have this line: /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0 3. So, I decided that it is automountable, and with konqueror I opened /media/floppy, but it is empty - it did not mount it. dmesg shows nothing about this. Local user: same 4. Then I used mount /media/floppy and it mounted ok as a user. I could umount it as well. But even mounted, the icon did not appear anywhere. Local user: same 5. There is a floppy icon at the bottom of the "Computer" section in the "new" kde menu. It's just an icon, no text on the line. Anyway - clicking on it, it opened konqueror in system:/media/fd0, which is empty (and I'm sure on the diskette there are files). Local user: with local account it does work - it opened system:/media/fd0 and I could see the files. I could also see the files browsing to /media/floppy. 6. Then I right-clicked on that icon (in the Computer menu), and selected Mount. It produced an error: Error - kio_media_mounthelper : Could not read /tmp/kde-MYDOMAIN\sunny/kio_fileWgUab.tmp. The directory is there, but the file is missing. The directory has the right permissions rwx for the owner, and the owner is MYDOMAIN\sunny and the group is MYDOMAIN\domain admins. Local user: With local user right-click and Unmount works. The Mount worked as well. So - obviously there is a problem when the user is a domain user, and not a local one. But even with a local one the automount - i.e. viewing /media/floppy does not automount the floppy.

[Bug 239420] New: Enhance message when hotpluggable device can not be disconnected (KDE)

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239420 Summary: Enhance message when hotpluggable device can not be disconnected (KDE) Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Hotplug AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mhorvath(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de We should enhance the message popping up when trying to disconnect/unmount a pluggable device. For instance, if I have a USB harddrive connected and try to unmount it (while it is being used), a message shows up "Cannot unmount volume. An application is preventing the volume from being unmounted". lsof gives this; bash 7578 mboman cwd DIR 8,17 115 131 /media/disk/pub So a better way would be to parse this and tell the user that mboman is "responsible" and perhaps add (bash/cwd) in there as well. For normal users, I would guess that instead of bash/cwd, they would have "OpenOffice" or "Nautilus" instead. -- 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 233602] New: Blank desktop on session start (intermittently)

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=233602 Summary: Blank desktop on session start (intermittently) Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de ReportedBy: osl(a)16hd.freeserve.co.uk QAContact: qa(a)suse.de K6-2/500 - several systems, various chipsets, RAM size etc. KDE gives error at session start "The process for the file protocol died unexpectedly", followed by no icons on desktop (though taskbar is OK). Can fix within the session using "Configure Desktop" -> "Desktop" -> "Behaviour"; select "Icons on desktop"=No, Apply, wait for it to action then restore to Yes. Once corrected, session is fine. Also seen on 10.1 final on some of the same hardware, seems more prevalent using 10.2 Happens with local login or with remote, probably > 75% of session starts. -- 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.
