However, this option isn't accessible from %find_lang. FWIW, at least the dia and inkscape packages have to manually include translated man pages because of this. -- 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.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505388 Summary: Systems with HW RAID(megaRAID) and others sdc1 has to be manually changed to /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:04:00.0-scsi-0:1:0:0-part1 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gerberb(a)zenez.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.19) Gecko/20081213 SUSE/1.1.14-1.1 SeaMonkey/1.1.14 I fought with this for a few days. I have to manually find from the y2logs the correct /dev/disk/by-.../ for the system to work. SuSE linux 10.0/10.1/10.2/10.3 all worked with out any problems. A fresh installation of 11.1 always errors out. The system would not boot after an installation. I had to boot from a repo on the net or at the location use the KDE 4.2.3 recut CD. The original media all ways to boot. I got everything working after the installation on several machines. All the various machines would identify the HD's but not the RAID. It would always list them with /dev/sdc... but using it would always fail. I had to manually identify what the correct /dev/disk/by-... would be and then use it. After the installation. I ran zypper up and zypper up -t patch. When the new kernel is install the manually edited entries are changed from /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:04:00.0-scsi-0:1:0:0-part1 to /dev/sdc1 for example. Also the /etc/fstab is changed back. I really should not have to manually check and edit everything and change it from sdcX. I have to manually edit /etc/zypp/repo.d/... and change and hd:... to use this as well. New repos can not be install as there is no pci-0000:04:00.0-scsi-0:1:0:0-part1 with all the various partitions. Once I manually add them correctly in the .repo file they work well. So this bug may be in more than one component. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install on any HW Raid device 2. update kernel on any HW Raid device 3. Actual Results: Install from a fixed 11.1 internet repo or from the KDE 4.2.X recut CD's. A sdc or higher will appear and you have to find the correct disk/by-... to use. Expected Results: Machine boots on a fresh install. Which is does not. -- 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.

However, it doesn't show anything bold since I use openSUSE 11.1 (was working fine in 11.0). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Open with the application "kwrite" a file for which syntax highlighting is provided and bold typeface is used (for example a C++ file where you make sure that you have some if-else-statements in the code) Actual Results: The "if" and "else" is not bold. Expected Results: The "if" and "else" should be shown bold. It seems to me that the font "Monospace doesn't support the bold typeface: When I change the default font for fixed width in the KDE control center to "DejaVu Sans Mono", that the syntax highlighting in kwrite works fine, including that "if" and "else" are bold. -- 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.

Thats not problem. That, what makes me angry, is he didn't try again. He shows up error window, I click on retry and with no problems he continues. But after about ten minutes is problem back again (on another package of course). I marked it for major, couse it's impossilble to start network installation and go away. I must sit at the computer and click on "Retry". This is Major feature broken. I tried two computers and three connections (O2, Cable TV, Wifi). I suggest, Yast on this kind of problems should sleep for a second and try again. Then for 5 seconds and try again and then show error. To be honest, I didn't met theese problems on real hardware, but i believe, whit bad connection should appeared there too. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start network installation in VirtualBox 2. put computer on normal internet connection, not in LAN whit server 3. Try network install Actual Results: 4 - 5 times interruption (must click "Retry") Expected Results: Finish without problems -- 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.
