https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442173 Summary: YaST GUI hangs up in busy loop when it must display long lists Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jsmeix@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: jw@novell.com, maacruz@gmail.com, tonussi@farmaco.ufsc.br, pedropsalinas@cacnsr.com Found By: Development The YaST GUI needs too much time to display long lists. In this case there is a "y2base" process running at about 100% CPU like this ("top" output) ----------------------------------------------------------- PID USER ... %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 18196 root ... 100 15.3 5:08.01 y2base ----------------------------------------------------------- and nothing happens on the dialog so that for the user it looks as if YaST has hang up. By default (i.e.when YaST doesn't run in debugging mode) there is nothing in y2log which indicates where it hangs. To reproduce: Run "yast2 scanner" as root and click the [Add] button (you don't need a scanner to do this). The [Add] button shows all available models (several hundred up to about two thousand). On my 3 GHz workstaion it needs more than 10 minutes until the list of all available models shows up. Juergen Weigert reported the issue to me and some customers reported the issue too, see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406853#c0 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406853#c14 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=434540#c9 -- 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.
