https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=327847 Summary: Option to delete old repository on update Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: locilka(a)novell.com ReportedBy: kmachalkova(a)novell.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- When updating from one version of openSUSE to another, user is offered a list of repositories found on the existing system. There is 'Change' button to edit repository URL and 'Change status' button to enable/disable repository. However, there is no 'Delete' button so there is no way how to delete repositories of old product(s) that are no longer needed. Sure, one can do so once the system is fully installed, but there is no way how to do it during update. -- 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 277300] New: Allow the user to re-arrange kickoff's tabs by middl-click and drag

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=277300 Summary: Allow the user to re-arrange kickoff's tabs by middl- click and drag Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers(a)suse.de ReportedBy: sven.burmeister(a)gmx.net QAContact: qa(a)suse.de In 10.2 Kickoff had the tab-order: favourites, history, ..., applications. If ound this very useful since both, favourites as well as history are shortcuts to the applications I use most often and hence should have the shortes way. Only if the application cannot be found in those two tabs, the user had to take the long way to the applications-tab. In build-service's KDE packages as well as 10.3 alpha the application-tab took the place of the history-tab. There are users who like this more than the original order, so it would be useful to make the order of the tabs more flexible. This can be done in a way that does not need any GUI and is consistent with kicker itself. If the user wants to re-arrange items on kicker itself, one can click on them with the middle mouse-button and move them. The same could be done for kickoff, i.e. the user middle-clicks the tab and moves it to the position it fits one's needs best. -- 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 244448] New: GRUB graphical menu partially hangs; text mode works

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=244448 Summary: GRUB graphical menu partially hangs; text mode works Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: fkamogee(a)yahoo.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de I have an older machine which was just upgraded with a SATA controller and disk. I moved my openSUSE 10.2 installation to the SATA disk, and all is fine except for this. The graphical menu has three problems: -The default selection with timeout does not work. The menu does not hang completely (I can make a selection and boot), but it never boots automatically. -The animated parts get stuck almost immediately. -If I press ESC to drop to text mode, there is a message dialog, and when that is dismissed, it just hangs. When the gfxmenu is disabled entirely, text mode properly boots the default selection with timeout, and the other two problems are irrelevant. So obviously that is a usable workaround. I tried re-installing grub, both by the command line and by YaST, neither helped. Moreover, the behavior exhibited by the 10.2 DVD is even worse. IIRC, it is completely unusable. I have to prevent it from loading the graphical menu at all, which I did by mashing keys (I think F8 is the one that worked). -- 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=233344 Summary: No sound from Crystal Audio sound card Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai(a)novell.com ReportedBy: VladCodrea(a)mail.utexas.edu QAContact: qa(a)suse.de The Crystal Audio sound card on my Dell Inspiron 3200 laptop is not properly detected and no sound applications work. Using YAST to detect legacy audio cards freezes the system.

Another person who has an Inspiron 3200 reported (http://audacityteam.org/forum/thread/184) that the sound card works after the following commands: modprobe sound modprobe ad1848 insmod uart401 insmod cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=5 However, typing these commands doesn't enable sound for me on OpenSuse 10.2. I am attaching the dmesg below. I'd be happy to provide any other information, try out patches, or give developers SSH access to the affected computer.

When selecting Suspend from the desktop, it says preparing to and then says resuming and gives an error box saying that suspend fails. When closing the lid, it will suspend, but when you open it back up, the system restores, but the screen's backlight stays off. Further, sometimes when it is just left running plugged into an AC outlet, the screen will blank, and then when trying to do something, the backlight will be off. At this point, if the lid is closed, it will suspend, and when re-opened and tapping a key, the screen will come back on properly. -- 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.

In comparison, when I ltrace a wish executable that has been linked statically against libtcl and libtk, I get almost 13MB of ltrace output from a wish that starts up and exits immediately. I've experienced this on a 10.2-x86_64 installation with ltrace and ltrace32 from 10.2 and 10.3. -- 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 265784] New: knetworkmanager: improve readability of systray icons (minor)

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=265784 Summary: knetworkmanager: improve readability of systray icons (minor) Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins(a)wp.pl QAContact: qa(a)suse.de I wear glasses plus I use hires (14" with 1400x1050) so maybe that's just me, but on the other hand all other icons (kget, kwifimanager, kwallet) are crystal clear for me. For wifi connected status I would suggest just other colors, and _not shaded_. It is too much, really. Take a look at kwifimanager -- its icon is much more readable (i.e. it presents desired readability). Cable connected -- the icon is a bit too cryptic, the icon size is limited so when you try to put rotated image of the plug, what do you get? Only few pixels to draw image. The same goes for disconnected icons. For two latter ones, please compare it to KGet download list -- it has pretty useful icons for that purpose. -- 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.
