https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227464 Summary: openSUSE, 10.2, Incomplete xorg.conf file generated - unable to use x11 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mszick(a)morethan.org QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Yes - I read the directions - and I would include the xorg.conf file if I had one - but if I had one, I would not need to file this bug report ;-) I noticed somewhere in the reading that SaX was trashing the xorg.conf file - This is to let you know that in the 10.2-GM-DVD* set released 12/07 it is still happening. Also - I can not find the setup utilities that normally ship with Xorg/X11 Also - The installation disk does not have a simple text editor to write my own xorg.conf file (if I knew how). I have not exaimined your Yast2 thingy, but if it uses a scripting engine, and this xorg.conf is not a hard-coded problem in the installer, then read on - The following has been verified by myself and fixed, in other distributions ... The situation: running kernel 2.6.18.2 in a small amount of free-memory, amount of swap does not matter - Running your installer in initrd puts anything with less the 0.5g of memory into this 'small free memory' catagory ... The scripting engine (and any other program) can be given a dirty page - python does detect this - I don't know what your system uses ... You can fix this by applying the 2.6.18.2-3.diff VM patch from kernel.org Also, you should apply the patches to bring the kernel upto 2.6.18.5 - the *.5 patch fixes some things with scsi and sata disks that could result in failures of your customer's install/operation. - - - - How to duplicate: Without the 2.6.18.2-3.diff patch in the kernel - With a "small memory x86 system" <=368Mb - Freshly formatted disks - Run the CD set of normal installation - Reboot - Observe that you are at a command line prompt - Run yast2 - exaimine the hardware reported - Learn that the system has properly identified keyboard, mouse, display board(s), monitor - Examine xorg.conf - see that only the first few, hardcoded lines are in the file. - - - - After hand-crafting an xorg.conf file on another system (thank you Debian), patch, rebuild kernel, rebuild install disk, repeat above - - - - - That is left as a tech-student exercise, I am still at the 'hand-craft' the xorg.conf file step.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166997 ------- Comment #13 from suzer(a)piments.com 2007-01-05 09:55 MST ------- I doubt suse will remaster thier ISOs for something less than the yast2 fiasco This is why I suggested leaving it open so that it will be visible and putting a link on the annoying bug list. I checked that page before even downloading the ISO and again before installing. I should have been aware of this issue. thx -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230897 Summary: USB mouse pointer freezes with nVidia nForce 430 chipset Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: thomas.anders(a)blue-cable.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Hardware: Dell Dimension E521 (AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+, Dell OCT103 Mainboard w/ nVidia nForce 430 chipset, USB mouse/keyboard, no PS2 nor serial connectors, quite popular, currently shipped unit) OS: SuSE Linux 10.1 fully updated USB mouse gets disconnected very frequently. Sometimes it works for 5-10 minutes, sometimes only not for a single one. Replugging helps most of the times, but not always. USB Keyboard disconnects do not happen so often, but still. This issue renders the box unusable with openSUSE. See Linux kernel bug 7397 (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7397) for full details. The problem seems to be 100% reproducible by any Linux user of the Dell Dimension E521 box. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

[Bug 175702] The system shuts down because of critical thermal ACPI event (at bogus 0 C degree temperature)
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 05 Jan '07

05 Jan '07

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=175702 trenn(a)novell.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|ASSIGNED |NEEDINFO Info Provider| |astylianou(a)earthlink.net ------- Comment #29 from trenn(a)novell.com 2007-01-05 09:47 MST ------- Very strange that this always happens. Can you try to move the thermal module away from /lib/modules/kernel-ver/kernel/drivers/acpi/thermal.ko to e.g. /tmp Now if you boot, wait some time, copy the module back and load it manually with modprobe thermal it should not shut down? I added a patch which I think could fix that (as said in comment #28) to SLED10-SP1 branch. SLED10 is same code base than 10.1 and AFAIK the 10.1 will get SLED-SP1 kernel sooner or later. You can try whether it helps by installing this one: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/sle10-sp-i386/SLES10_SP1_BRANCH… (Best install it with rpm -ivh xy.rpm --force (possibly also --nodeps), you need to adjust /boot/grub/menu.lst by hand to point to the newly installed kernel. Like that the old kernel will be kept installed. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
