I cannot get a working German keymap at all. With +kb, I have the correct layout, but no umlauts or other special characters at all. setxkbmap "de(nodeadkeys)" results in the umlauts being present at the right places, but an otherwise quite messed up layout... With -kb, I get the umlaut-a where it belongs, but no umlaut-o, umlaut-ü, or any other character not present on an American keyboard. With .Xmodmap I can get as far as with -kb. It's independent from the VNC client implementation. Am I the only person on this planet who's using VNC with a non-American keyboard or what?! I'm currently using Xfvb/x11vnc, but it lets kwin crash (so I'm using xfce4 now) and tends to develop focus and "sticky key" problems after a while. Tigervnc from buildservice crashes as soon as I press some key. NX is a pile of stinkin'... which I cannot use in my environment. Can someone PLEASE fix Xvnc/tightvnc? -- 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 529729] New: kernel-* install fails silently if /boot partition isn't already mounted with read write privileges
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 04 Dec '09

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529729 Summary: kernel-* install fails silently if /boot partition isn't already mounted with read write privileges Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader AssignedTo: jsrain(a)novell.com ReportedBy: code933k(a)gmail.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.12) Gecko/2009071200 SUSE/3.0.12-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.12 It is a common practice handling read-only boot partitions or not mounting them at all for security and speed reasons. It isn't necessary exposing /boot as this is supposed to be grub's handywork [...] However, the kernel installer rpm script will fail silently when trying to write vmlinuz into /boot as well as it fails at adding corresponding grub/menu.lst entries. The script will tell you that /boot/vmlinuz* was correctly installed but it is not. I am no expert here but I, personally, suggest testing against fstab and mtab whether or not a /boot partition is clean and mounted with read-write privileges so that this block can be avoided. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do not mount /boot or have it mounted read-only... Actual Results: The script shows grub/menu.lst entries and /boot/vmlinuz* as correctly written but they are not. Expected Results: The installer should check whether a /boot partition is mounted with read-write privileges and clean. -- 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 536274] New: yast2 tv-configuration with ivtv drivers completely broken
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=536274 Summary: yast2 tv-configuration with ivtv drivers completely broken Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: johanp(a)aditus.nu QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-3.1 Firefox/3.5.2 The configuration setup for ivtv drives are obsolete and broken I have a WinTV PVR 350 which yast2 TV detects properly it also detects that it must load the ivtv drivers (or informs that the drivers are installed). However in the information after configuring yast2 informs that: Configured as TV card number 0 Driver ivtv Package: ivtv (Installed) Package: ivtv-firmware (Installed) Package: ivtv-kmp-default (Not Installed) There is two problems with this. 1) Package: ivtv-kmp-default does not exist. These drivers are included in the kernel by default so it will result in an error if yast2 tries to find and install this. So this should not be a dependency any more this is obsolete. 2) When yast2 tries to install ivtv-firmware (even though it is already installed) it crashes and results in all configuration are lost. Furthermore the channel scan in yast2 is also broken. However, if the ivtv drivers are installed via software configuration they are correctly installed (since they can be used by for example mythtv) so there is nothing inherent wrong with the drivers, they work as expected. This seems to only be a problem in the yast2-tv module. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a suitable TV card that uses ivtv drivers, for example Hauppage WinTV PVR 350 2. Try to configure via Yast2 Actual Results: Yast2 crashes Expected Results: TV card properly configured This TV card works fine in other distributions.
