https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=780621 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=780621#c0 Summary: YaST Installer continues to ignore low-vision accessibility Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suseROCKS(a)bryen.com QAContact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0 YaST uses a bright white background for the dialogue windows during installation. This is a big no-no for low-vision users as well as for people with aging eyes. Typically, many low-vision users are extremely sensitive to white on screen. We tend to set our desktops to have a black background with white font. As my vision continues to deteriorate, I am having more difficulty with each openSUSE release to be able to see the screen and select my options. While I know there is a text-based install, even the default for YaST-ncurses is not a low-vision friendly color and requires you to edit a file to change the default color options. (I've never tried this during actual install, only during normal installed usage of openSUSE.) That is simply not an optimal solution for low-vision users, especially new users who may not have experience in how to configure in the background. Please devise a plan to provide alternative visual options for users. Perhaps a toggle-button that automatically inverts the colors of the install dialogues or alternative graphics screen that provides a darker background. This is not a protest statement, but a factual one... with my continued declining vision, if this is not fixed by 12.3, it is quite possible that I will no longer be able to install and use openSUSE. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. -- 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 642456] New: Permission issue for the "nut" UPS software

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642456 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642456#c0 Summary: Permission issue for the "nut" UPS software Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: reg(a)capiogroup.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.10) Gecko/20100914 SUSE/3.6.10-30.1 Firefox/3.6.10 On a standard install of nut (Network UPS Tools), classic version (not HAL) the driver did not have permission to run until I added the the group "root" to the user "upsd". my nut.conf is: [myups] driver = usbhid-ups port = /dev/usb/hiddev0 desc = "Tripp Lite UPS SU1500XL" Once that change was made it worked just fine. I don't think this is a big issue but they documentation goes out of it's way to make a point of keeping permissions on the nut daemon restricted so I thought it should be noted. Perhaps just a documentation change to let people know that it might be necessary would be enough. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install 2.Set the nut.conf file 3.Try to run the driver: /usr/lib/ups/driver/upsdrvctl start Actual Results: Permission denied error. -- 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 635303] New: dump version incompatible with ext4

I am a longtime SuSE (and dump) user, and it never would have occurred to me to check this. OK, my mistake -- but I just lost a whole day's work because my careully made backup was trash. Dump 0.4b42 does claim ext4 support... At the very lease, a prominent warning should be added to the result of a search for dump on software.opensuse.org. -- 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 571841] New: dump/restore version from oss fails when ext4 filesystem is used

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571841 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571841#c0 Summary: dump/restore version from oss fails when ext4 filesystem is used Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Maintenance AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: deligeo(a)physics.uoc.gr QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091201 SUSE/3.5.6-1.1.1 Firefox/3.5.6 Attempting to use the dump/restore backup tool (Version 0.4b41-161.1 x86_64) from oss repository to backup and restore /home the resulting files where corrupted. This is a known issue upstream and is corrected in version 0.4b42. See bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511651 for more details. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.use dump to backup an ext4 filesystem 2.move into a different computer 3.attempt to restore in an ext3 filesystem Actual Results: Files produced are not identical to original files. Several text files are now reported as binary. Expected Results: Should produce a correct image of initial files in the new filesystem. Or at the very least dump should NOT allow ext4 filesystems to be used until it is properly working on them. The main issue is that dump will not complain about ext4 partitions being dumped. Thus the problem is encountered later (too late) on when one attempts to restore the filesystem. Version 0.4b42 should resolve this issue by dealing with ext4 filesystems correctly thus restoring dump/restore functionality. -- 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.
