However... YaST shows only minimal set of channels, using "CD" as the one which should be used to adjust the volume... and with none actually adjusting the volume works. I know it may be bad to reopen the bug, we may create a new one once the problem is found. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 543549] New: CUPS 'Browsing Mode' is enabled by default
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 01 Oct '09

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=543549 Summary: CUPS 'Browsing Mode' is enabled by default Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 8 Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing AssignedTo: jsmeix(a)novell.com ReportedBy: thomas(a)cupracer.de QAContact: jsmeix(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.0.14) Gecko/2009090900 SUSE/3.0.14-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.14 I'm thinking about the following issue whenever I install a fresh openSUSE, so I think that it's time for a bug report: While setting up CUPS within the installation an configuration procedure, I stumble over the 'Browsing Mode', which is enabled by default. I think that it should be disabled, so that there's no interchange between the local and a remote CUPS server. Surely, there's a SuSEFirewall that prevents the communication, but if the firewall is turned off, the communication begins. In fact, an attacker could provide our local CUPS with wrong information to get copies of secret documents (or whatever). The user should enable this option explicitely if he's interested in this feature. openSUSE 11.2 M8 even has the sshd disabled by default. So why should there still exist a network-activated daemon that is able to modify the systems configuration (= list of printers) without making the user aware of it? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install openSUSE 11.2 (build0307) up to "hardware configuration" 2. select "Printer" to start the CUPS configuration 3. select ~ "network printing" and find the Browsing mode option (Sorry, currently I just have the german version installed an don't know the right translation for these menus) Actual Results: Browsing Mode is turned on by default. Expected Results: Browsing Mode should be turned off by default. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Just "stumbled" over this thread by coincidence after having completely forgotten about it. To give some (late) feedback. Applied the new ifup-wireless script to my installation (which is 11.1 at the moment) and switching wpa-drivers (in my case from wext to nl80211 and back using wpa_supplicant 0.6.9) works perfectly. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 542133] New: Mic produces ugly noises on Skype 2.1.0.47 during echo test
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 01 Oct '09

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=542133 Summary: Mic produces ugly noises on Skype 2.1.0.47 during echo test Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai(a)novell.com ReportedBy: modjoa(a)gmail.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.14) Gecko/2009090900 SUSE/3.0.14-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.14 Platform: Dell Precision WorkStation T3400 running a 32-bit openSUSE-11.1 with the latest SuSE-GmbH/Novell packaged 2.6.27.29-0.1-pae kernel, with 1.0.17/1.0.18 of alsa and an AD1984 hardware audio codec. The problem with the microphone (really load and ugly noise) occurs every time when I try to test the Skype Echo test. The problem does not exist when using Ekiga/ arecord applications. Below I have provided details about the bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: The microphone should work properly as expected. A discussion about the bug is described here: http://forums.opensuse.org/applications/multimedia/422400-mic-produces-ugly… I have tried different options but the problem still exists. What I have already tried: I have installed the alsa-driver-kmp-pae pakage (I have followed strictly the instructions. I have tried with the latest update and Daily snapshots) and I have putted the "dell" option in /etc/modprobe.d/sound, but the result was that I lost my microphone in all applications and in Skype I still got the Ugly noise (the noise is the same as the one coming from an old TV set when it is unable to catch any accurate TV signal). It seems (at least for me) that there is something wrong with the updated snap-shoot version of pae packages. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
