[Bug 493100] New: NvIDIA Application Cannot Save Modification due Inability to Write or Merge with X11 Start-up Config File

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493100 Summary: NvIDIA Application Cannot Save Modification due Inability to Write or Merge with X11 Start-up Config File Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 Applications AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(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:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009022800 SUSE/3.0.7-1.1.6 Firefox/3.0.7 The NvIDIA change settings Application cannot save any changes or merge to X11 config file. Application has no auth to write or merge with this file. I would think that this issue only occurs when user elects to have default login user to have NO root authority - The Default action of Install is to make default login == root, If user elects default login user to have NO root authority many application cannot recognise this as request escalation at time of execution. See screen shot Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open Nvidia Settings Application 2.Change nothing or change any action 3.Elect to either merge or write to X11 config File 4.Unable to write or merge with this file as user login has no root authprity. Actual Results: Unable to change anything in X11 config file from NvIDIA Application Settings Expected Results: If default user == non root and Nvidia Application called from menu - the application needs to request root authority if not present. Again it is clear the testing of 11.1 is only done of default Installation settings. If the user elects to change any of the default install setting there will always be errors as I suspect every application and Module can never cope with non-default Installation settings across the board. -- 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.

The GNU Telephony opensuse build project is intended to support building our packages for use on RPM based GNU/Linux distributions. Our goal is to make it easier to create and deploy telephony services on RPM based distributions, and to make updates available immediately from our upstream source releases. Many of our packages are not commonly packaged or actively maintained in RPM based distributions. Some of our packages are however used by national governments on Debian based distributions, and we have a baseline package set for creating secure intercept-free VoIP services. In addition to GNU Bayonne and GNU SIP Witch, we maintain ZRTP support for Twinkle and a number of supporting libraries. -- 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.

Now, as soon as I install openSUSE, I experience this problem: the file operations dialog will freeze when I try to delete an ISO file, or a few thousand file directory like a source tree. Nothing on the progress bar, ever. If I cancel it, the dialog stays up. This will happen if I delete and then try to empty the trash, or if I shift-del from Nautilus. In the former, the trash icon is empty when I reboot. In the latter, I reboot and find still existing the directory I ordered deleted and a text file in it, but the ISO within is gone. That said, I reinstalled because this partition somehow became full. I can't imagine a legitimate reason for because it's just openSUSE and home (which was 1.7GB).
