http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533588 Summary: text-only system should not require gfxboot, bootsplash, & splashy Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: brian(a)aljex.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Fresh install of 11.2 MS6 Software manager auto-adds gfxboot, bootsplash, splashy, and related branding packages, even when you taboo those packages. These programs are not compatible with serial console and a text-only install should be able to exclude them. In the past, they were added by default, but it was possible to manually de-select and/or taboo them. Now, it is possible to de-select them and prevent installation one time, but every time software manager runs, they are auto-added again. The taboo flag seems to have no effect. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start with these packages not installed: bootsplash bootsplash-branding-openSUSE liblzo2-2 libx86 splashy splashy-branding-openSUSE suspend 2. run yast software manager. 3. perform no actions in software manager, just select Accept without having selected any packages to install. 4. A popup will come up showing all of the above packages auto-selected as if they were dependancies of something. 5. Cancel. Search for and taboo each of those packages. 6. You can exit software manager normally now and the packages won't be installed. 7. Repeat starting at step 2 above. Same packages are auto-added again. Ideally a text-only install choice should not even include these since they can cause problems on serial console. If you are remotely administering servers via serial console it's very important that it always works. -- 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.

Sometimes my system freezes badly for about half a minute to a minute with severe load on cpu usage. Keyboard entries or mouse clicking does not work, but as the system comes back to normal after the freeze up, all the keyboard and mouse events entered during the freezing suddenty bring up corresponding items (e.g. right click menu comes up although I had right-clicked during the freezing up). Though I am not entirely sure about it, I feel it is during interaction with multimedia that the problem might be occuring (e.g. during thumbnailing video files, or during playing back videos, etc.) This has severely affected my experience with 11.2 so far.
