https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=349458 Summary: Can you include the kerneloops package in a future opensuse distribution ? Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gdoig(a)pcug.org.au QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Hello, Can you include the kerneloops package in a future opensuse distribution ?. (http://www.kerneloops.org/download/kerneloops-0.4.tar.gz) from http://www.kerneloops.org/ Information from the website includes the following: kerneloops.org is a website that tries to help the developers of the Linux kernel by collecting so-called oopses, which are the crash signatures of the Linux kernel. The collected oopses are processed statistically to present information for the kernel developers, such as * Which crash signatures occur the most? (and thus need to be fixed most urgently) * When did a certain crash signature show up first? * Which API functions are the most error prone It looks like a very useful package. If you are NOT able to include the kerneloops package in opensuse, can you send a email to the developer list include it in a future kernel, as I am not sure on who to send the request to ?.

[Bug 346638] New: yast generates faulty grub menu.lst after kernel update

It seems the newly created grub entry by yast is not understood by grub. in particular, yast generates: root (/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD800JB-00CWD-WCA8E7486956-part7,6) grub says something like: failed to parse number when i replace this line by: root(hd0,6) it is fixed. I was surprised to find out that nobody else has this problem! Maybe it is because I have a nonstandard disk setup? It is as follows: - 2 hd's connected to IDE controller (i guess primary one) - 2 hd's connected to sata controller (they are actually configured as raid-1, but not configured/used as raid device in linux) - bios is configured to boot from its primary controller, rather than a SATA disk I will provide an attachment with my menu.lst please fix this.. -- 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.

In the software menu I choose to change the default software choice and among others I included the XEN kernel. After finishing the installation I found that only XEN was in the grub boot menu. Later using YaST to change the bootloader I could add the default kernel to the grub boot menu. However the failsave entry still pointed to the XEN-kernel. This is not the behavior in previous versions of openSUSE. This should be added to the Release Notes or it should be changed. -- 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.
