https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=240555 Summary: ZMD - unable to resolve dependancies Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096(a)tpg.com.au QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com ZMD is unable to resolve dependencies - see screen shot and attached files. I am impressed with ZMD's update reliability - however I am still of the opinion that ZMD having root authority is remove an entire installation. I feel this is an unacceptable internal risk. I feel that ZMD functions very well now in installing updates etc, however I feel that giving the user 2 click to remove the entire installation a totally unacceptable internal risk. I feel this should be removed. Q. Would there be any advantage into creating an authoritative user which is not root that ZMD could function correctly. Any application with permenent root authority concerns me -- 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 430785] New: libgnomecanvas-no-tearing. diff prevents teg from redrawing correctly

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=430785 Summary: libgnomecanvas-no-tearing.diff prevents teg from redrawing correctly Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: federico(a)novell.com ReportedBy: hpj(a)urpla.net QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Created an attachment (id=242388) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=242388) teg package Federico, as I've already described in: [opensuse-gnome] next issue with GNOME:STABLE: canvases aren't redrawed correctly it still holds true for 11.0: I suffer from canvases and its items, that aren't redrawed correctly in teg (a risk clone, I happily provide a src.rpm for anyone interested). This game uses a canvas with some items, and those aren't updated correctly. Forcing a redraw by switching screens, or moving a window over them fixes this, but that's an unplayable state. The fact is, it doesn't happen with upstream libgnomecanvas nor does it happen if I prevent libgnomecanvas-no-tearing.diff from applying to the libgnomecanvas-2.20.1.1-42.1, thus there is either a problem in your patch, or a problem in teg. May I ask you kindly for a fix (either way). I've attached the source rpm of the problematic package. The applied patches just change/add some shortcuts and a minor different default play mode.. BTW: I already tried to fix teg in some way, by sprinkle gnome_canvas_update_now() calls to various (random) places, but all I harvested was worser behavior. After messing in teg for a few hours, I tried above approach, and succeeded immediately. -- 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 465632] New: encrypted partition mounting: provide option for postponing mount

No big deal for regular partitions. But for encrypted partition automounting means the system will ask about password in early stage of booting. However there are pretty sane cases where such early mount is not needed at all -- for example /home partition. Thus the wish: provide an option + means for postponing mount. For runlevel 5, just before DM kicks in, and for runlevel 3 it would be moment just before normal logging in. In the first case, it would be great if the password would be given in nice GUI manner. -- 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.
