[Bug 1033820] Yast Computer Role textmode screen not properly displayed for ppc64/ppc64le
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1033820 http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1033820#c1 --- Comment #1 from Stefan Hundhammer <shundhammer@suse.com> --- Sorry for the delay; we had a lot of issues in our incoming queue lately. Is this a ppc-only problem? I guess if we had this problem in general, we would have seen a lot of similar bugs, but we didn't. In this build https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/365272 the problem seems to be the test setup: iSCSI devices expected, but not available AFAICs; but that is a problem that is unrelated to this. It never even gets to the workflow step where this "role screen broken" problem occurs. Here https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/385514#step/logpackages/2 I can see the problem, but it's a very weird one: One blank is missing at the start of the upper frame of that subwindow. I wouldn't even know how to get this programmatically; it must be broken on a deeper level, such as libncurses (unlikely IMHO) or the terminal emulation used here. Or some other program is spitting output to this terminal, thus disturbing the ncurses output. In this "always latest" test case https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/latest?flavor=DVD&version=Tumbleweed&machine=ppc64&distri=opensuse&test=textmode&arch=ppc64 the problem is still there, but it's much too regular and predictable to be another program doing uncoordinated output on the same terminal; it's always that first blank just before the top left corner of that frame. My personal guess is that it's a problem of the terminal emulation or (like in similar issues on aarch64) a problem in the virtualization drivers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
