http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508622 Summary: Related to this, can we please have an radiobutton option during install to select either ipv4 or ipv6 as currently it will attempt to download updates during install using ipv6 which slows the installation process down GREATLY if the ISP does not support Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 2 Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: pBakhuis@Gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-3.1 Firefox/3.0.10 Can we please have an radiobutton option during install to select either ipv4 or ipv6 as currently it will attempt to download updates during install using ipv6 which slows the installation process down GREATLY if the ISP does not support it. I'm aware of other similar bug reports, but those aren't about the install process, which now has the very nice 'live' updates.. at least they're nice when your host actually supports ipv6 cause if it does not then you're looking at an 'searching for updates' window for half a hour. One more radiobutton would do no harm and offer the user the choice to still install an up to date version directly, if it defaults to ipv6 I don't see any 'policy' problems either. At worst place please place an expert option somewhere to enable ipv4 directly, although in my opinion this would be needlessly hard to find as the amount of hosts not supporting ipv6 seems to outweigh the number of those who do (by a 3 to 0 ratio even from personal experience). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Run install with default options Actual Results: A 'searching for updates' screen showing up for far longer than it needs to due to the ISP not supporting ipv6. Expected Results: A fast 30-40 minute install. -- 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.
