https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=377448 Summary: Boot Option "Memory Test" needs Clarification in Application Presentation Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: PC OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Usability AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096(a)virginbroadband.com.au QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Customer This application function well in a text mode. Any chance in loading a mouse driver and present menu selection a little easier? Personally I will NOT use the mouse unless I have to, however I am old. A new user just cannot cope without a mouse and menu. The options at the bottom of the default test are: (ESC) Reboot (c) configuration (SP) Scroll_lock (CR) Scroll_unlock I understand this is really a small request, however there are not many old users out there who still understand what a "Carriage Return is" and like wise (SP) Space Bar is unclear. Its a 30 minute fix to just change the abbreviations to full words and the words Scroll_lock are mostly long forgotten by current users. Could we expand (SP) and (CR) to real words and could we change "Scroll_lock" to 'Pause Screen/ Release Screen' Please bear in mind half of the new Teckos now and soon all teckos cannot do anything unless they has mouse and Menu Support - Yes I know this is frightening but unfortunately realistic. -- 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 392673] New: Console background (tty0) is distracting

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=392673 Summary: Console background (tty0) is distracting Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 3 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bgmerrell(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Integration Test When booting into runlevel 3, the main console (tty0 or ALT+F1) has a polka-dot-like background that is very distracting. The dots are set behind the text but their colors are light enough that it is very distracting and might even be considered an accessibility issue (this is just a guess). Regardless, it is way more intrusive than backgrounds in the past and I think it should be reconsidered--at least for future releases. I know, I know, if I don't like it I can just change to a virtual terminal, but there is a lot of information that is read on that console and just because we can put polka-dots on the console background doesn't mean we should ;) -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=362040 Summary: SYSLOG-NG - Add processor temperature logging and possible RAM Dim temp to Syslog-ng in default product. Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096(a)virginbroadband.com.au QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Customer Please add Processor temperature logging syslog-ng and please write to system log so it can also be monitored by KsystemLog. We already have SMART device temperature attribute 194 being logged and displayable dynamically in KsystemLog and any other thought of device monitoring the developer can also think up please add to syslog-ng. I think the RAM dim temp also has a definable attribute? This is a very very minor change and not particularly high in priority, however it could be a great future investment for approx 1 man-hours work. -- 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 395890] New: Spacing of tables in package management windows always needs adjustment

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=395890 Summary: Spacing of tables in package management windows always needs adjustment Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: RC 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: raffo(a)cdi.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=219213) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=219213) The installer showing columns with improper widths Through several releases, the package management modules always popup with some columns that are so wide, that one needs to resize them to get to the information needed. In this case, the package "Size" column is always too wide. If it is resized manually, then it reverts back to too wide if you select another pattern. It makes it difficult to check the current package version and the available version, since that column is too narrow. It would be nice if Yast would keep the columns width proportions the user selects, even after the application is restarted. See the attached figure which illustrates how the package installer looks every time a pattern is selected. -- 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.
