To be clear: Estonian locale code: et_EE or just et as there is no different version widely known. (Ethiopian (amharic) locale code is am_ET which relly can cause a mess) For Estonian users it is a major problem and very annoying, because this field changes back every time when gdm is abnormally aborted.

[Bug 497975] New: gconf schema conflicts between gconfd and evolution
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497975 User jrobiso2(a)ford.com added comment http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497975#c476442 Summary: gconf schema conflicts between gconfd and evolution Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jrobiso2(a)ford.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.9) Gecko/2009040821 Firefox/3.0.9 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) I am not an expert in gnome, but I have come across the following: In the gconf schema, the ignore_hosts list in network proxy settings is a list (list of strings), which makes sense. In evolution, it is just a string. Thus, when following Evolution instructions, making any entries into that field in the gui results in a "type mismatch" error. Essentially, if I understand this correctly, the evolution schema for ignore_hosts proxy entry conflicts with the gconf schema. MANUALLY changing the .gconf/apps/evolution/shell/network %gconf file into a list of strings does not help or prevent this error. Note that Evolution appears to be mishandling external (proxied) URL requests. I haven't had images in evolution mail for ages, no matter what the settings. My belief is that it may be due to this schema conflict. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start Evolution Preferences 2.Choose network proxy settings 3.set a manual proxy, and enter "localhost, 127.0.0.1, <another>" in "Ignore Hosts" entry. Actual Results: Error message pops up about "Type Mismatch: expected string, got list" or words to that effect. Going back to "System settings" doesn't help, and evolution will then fail the login to the Exchange server. The only fix is to delete "~/.gconf/apps/evolution/shell/network*" %gconf file. Expected Results: I would expect no errors, and proper proxy (and ignore_host) handling by evolution I believe this may be related to bug #476442 which reports improper URL handling by Evolution, related to proxies. That bug says the url handling fix is in 2.24.5 of evolution, but the openSuSE Evolution:STABLE repo still only has 2.24.4. For some of us, Evolution is USELESS until this is fixed. Setting to MAJOR since a major feature (getting email when using a proxy) is broken. -- 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 519329] New: Under a Default Application Installation there is NO "system info" - type Application

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519329 Summary: Under a Default Application Installation there is NO "system info" - type Application Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096(a)virginbroadband.com.au QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.10 The easiest was I can describe this problem is to describe what I mean by system info. In M.S Windows we have "My Computer" In KDE Konqueror we have sysinfo:// In Gnome we do not have one display that I can find that summarises the information above. The closest thing is to install the optional "System Monitor" which does give some information. If I had a gnome issue and I needed to call Suse Teck Support - how would I answer the support persons first questions like What Version of Suse are you running? What Video Card are you using? Do you have enough hard disk space left? How Much RAM is Installed in your PC and currently available? Do you have a DVD drive or only a CD or Neither? Are you running out of space on any partition? What Kernel are you Running? What type of CPU do you have - is it 64Bit - what speed is it running at? So unless I have missed something - there appears to be no sysinfo type screen to answer typical questions for trouble shooting. If someone installed Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop and selected Gnome, how does the user provide this basic information to the support assistance. I really hope I have just not found this sysinfo information application in Gnome, but if it is absent, this is a huge error and bug for both open and Enterprise Gnome Desktops which a simple patch fix could correct very quickly Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Unable to find any Sysinfo Application or Summary Expected Results: There should be an easy to activate System Summary display in an application that is clearly obvious to the user. -- 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.
