If you can, please add it to the main DVD because it is vital for many local users here. I want also to launch a downloadble location for a double DVD release because in countries like Tunisia we couldn't buy it from the internet and there is no local store to buy it even in Africa (ubuntu has it's team here -> ubuntu-tn and has ubuntu ultimate release containing all necessary things, and fedora is represented by fedora-tn team, Mandriva is represented by the Freeways club in the Institut Supérieur d'Informatique ISI) thank you -- 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.

Bei der Installation von OpenSuse habe ich den Bootloader grub sowohl automatisch als auch händisch installiert. Ergebnis w.o. beschrieben. Da dieser Fahler auf beiden meiner Computer (Gigabyte Board 7VRX mit Athlon XP Prozessor) auftritt und meine Forensuche bezüglich gleicher Fehler erfolglos blieb, wollte ich mich vergewissern, ob Rückmeldungen im Sinne meiner Anfrage nach Erscheinen der EASY-Linux 4/2007 bei Ihnen vorliegen. In Ihrer Mailingliste habe ich zwischenzeitlich einen zutreffenden Eintrag gefunden, der noch keine Lösung anbietet. Gleichwohl bedanke ich mich, daß Sie sich meines Problems angenommen haben.

There is something strange using the system backup packaged with OpenSuse 10.3. I cannot run the backup with the cron job. This is the original command launched by the cron job (it was built by Yast automatically): /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=backup-sistema" I begun having this problem with OpenSuse 10.2 in November. Probably a security update has corrupted the script backup_cron. In fact it does not work either using cron or a terminal. I uninstalled then reinstalled the backup package but unfortunately only the updated version is downloaded and it does not work. Doing a manual backup, it works perfectly. Below I am reproducing the email sent by the cron job; if you want I can send you the script file. Thank you for your help.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331044 Summary: Postfix uses receive_override_options in main.cf Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: wolfgang(a)rosenauer.org QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- receive_override_options = no_address_mappings in main.cf is a bad idea in general. This is set by SuSEconfig.postfix if amavisd is used. Problem with that is that it applies not only to mail delivered via SMTP but also delivered by sendmail/maildrop/pickup and sending mail that way will fail when adressed to a virtual recipient. That parameter should be set in master.cf instead for the smtpd process only. -- 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.
