Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE.org Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Hermes AssignedTo: freitag(a)novell.com ReportedBy: bitdealer(a)gmail.com QAContact: adrian(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.8.1.19) Gecko/20081213 SUSE/2.0.0.19-0.1 Firefox/2.0.0.19 Sorry if Hermes is not the correct component but since there is no openFATE one I thought it would be the most appropriate (since it already sends OBS messages). Could we please get automatic emails sent if new comments are made for features we are listed as interested in (or, obviously, as requester)? Simply like it currently happens for bugzilla entires one is listed as CC or reporter. Same should happen for status changes of features (no idea if that currently happens) Reasoning is that it would make it much easier to keep up to date and participate in an ongoing discussion. PS: That's purposefully filled as bug and not a feature request since it is, IMHO, an usability bug.

This is a NVidia GeForce 8200 based motherboard and the standard OpenSuSE 11.1 2.26.27.7-9-default kernel does not seem to have support for the SATA controller on this motherboard. It is possible to go into the motherboard BIOS and change the SATA mode from SATA to AHCI and back but I have tried both settings and the SATA controller never seems to be found. No hard drives attached to the on-board SATA ports are discovered.

The /etc/init.d/nfs script stops with "Not starting NFS client services - no NFS found in /etc/fstab:". But the automounter gets its information from the corresponding maps such that no entry in /etc/fstab is necessary. As workaround I added a (dummy) entry to /etc/fstab to force /etc/init.d/nfs to start gssd. Should I create a additional init-script to start gssd or is there another way to solve the problem?

This happens very frequent, for example when reading a page on the site, carefully reading, then taking the mouse to scroll for example and it's lost. It takes about 15 seconds (estimated, not measured) and then the mouse 'jumps' a bit an it becomes working again.

[Bug 432822] New: Intel GMA 4500 MHD internal graphics chipset fails with openSUSE 11.0 ( Driver not included?)

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=432822 Summary: Intel GMA 4500 MHD internal graphics chipset fails with openSUSE 11.0 (Driver not included?) Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch(a)novell.com ReportedBy: kevin.dupuy(a)opensuse.org QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs(a)forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- The Intel GMA 4500MHD internal graphics chipset included with recent laptops *completely fail* under openSUSE 11.0. The only thing brought up when the X server starts up is a gray screen that fades out into a dark grey screen (pics coming in a few minutes). The framebuffer graphics in GRUB, the early bootsplash, and YaST installation do work, albeit not at the correct resolution (although that is more related to the resolution of my PC, so it's not part of the bug report). After some research, apparently the driver for this chipset wasn't released early enough to be included in openSUSE 11.0, and I'm not sure if it is scheduled to be included in openSUSE 11.1 (I'm also not sure exactly what drivers this card requires, BTW). So can we get this included with openSUSE 11.1, and what about an update to 11.0, since this is a problem for a bunch of people who buy these laptops, perhaps expecting the graphics card to work out of the box since it is an Intel card, which have good track records with Linux compatibility. -- 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 478475] New: With 2 CD devices second cannot be mounted. Symptoms similar to Bug 408252 but patch installed

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=478475 Summary: With 2 CD devices second cannot be mounted. Symptoms similar to Bug 408252 but patch installed 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: ajbudge(a)errichel.co.uk QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6 Network installed OpenSuse 11.1 with all update patches to date applied. System Dell PE6300 server with 4 PIII Xeons and 4Gb memory. Megaraid hardware RAID card installed supporting 6 drives in RAID 5 configuartion and an integrated SCSI controller supporting 2 CD devices, CD-ROM at scsi address 0,0,5,0 and CD-RW at scsi address 0,0,4,0. After booting both devices are shown linked to sr0. I tried to change this with ln -s cdrom sr1 so cdrom would be linked to sr1 but received message that the link existed and nothing changed. However after inserting a CD the cdrom changed to sr1 and stays thus even when CD removed. Permissions seem OK with me being in users and cdrom group and acls showing me to have rw permissions on both drives and all relevant links. Problem is that if I put an audio CD in the first drive, which is cdrw, all is well and I can use Grip to rip and encode with all functions working properly. If I put a CD into the second drive, cdrom, even with no multimedia program running just Gnome desktop, I get error message: "Unable to Mount Audio Disk DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" This is repeated every second or so until I remove the disk. If I have Grip running I still get error messages and grip stalls. Have tried to check bug threads but now 408252 has been fixed and I still have problems I am raising this here in the hope that somebody can advise. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Load CD into second cd device and I get errors every time even after reboot. 2. 3. Actual Results: Unable to Mount Audio Disk DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) Expected Results: I had expected the drive to mount the CD and then await use by software such as Grip so that when grip was startedit would function normally I can send further info if told what to send. -- 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.

It would be better if the commit would invalidate the "succeeded" state. The "succeeded should only be reached again once the package has actually been built (successfully of course). -- 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.

I get this acute feeling of powerlessness, and deja-vu reading this. It is the moral equivalent of: **** Something went wrong !!! **** ;-) any chance the software could elaborate ? clearly it knows a lot that I don't but it would be nice if it could let on in at least a few ways: What repo / arch values would it accept ? [ presumably it knows the valid combinations by now ]. Why is my repo / arch not good enough ? [ surely this stuff is built in a chroot jail, that should work ~anywhere ? ]. Where do I go to find help on this ? the manual or build --help is not so helpful in this regard. I know - almost certainly the answer is obvious - if you already understand the build service; but ultimately I don't want to learn everything up-front, incremental deepening of knowledge is fine for me :-) and this is one of the key commands in the: check-out patch build test check-in cycle, that could (perhaps) be more helpful :-) [ thanks for putting up with my rant ]. -- 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.
