[opensuse-factory] makeSUSEdvd and 10.2
by houghi 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

Another version, another problem. :-/ When I just make an iso with CD 1, I get the following problem: When I pick minimal text install at the Installation Settings at "Software" I get: Cannot solve dependencies automatically. Manual intervention is required (in red). * Minimum System (47.6 MB total) This does not happen if I just use the standard CD1. Only with a ISO made from CD1 made with makeSUSEdvd If I go to software and then details, I get an error for openssh-4.2p1-18.i586 that there is no libopensc.co I get the same issue when I select KDE or Gnome with a 1CD made with makeSUSEdvd. This did not happen with 10.1. There I could make an iso from CD1 and use that (to test, or to add things) It does not happen when I use a CD 1-3. So why does it happen with a CD1? -- houghi http://houghi.org http://www.plainfaqs.org/linux/ http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html > > Today I went outside.

by houghi 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

Before I file a bug, I want to know wether pther people have noticed it, or if it is due to the fact that I use Parallels (a VM program). 1) No border on the popup windows during the installation 2) When I use the 1 CD installation, minimal textmode, when it goes on to the formatting, I get the following error which prevents installation: Error Failure acured during the following action: Setting disk-label of disk /dev/hda to msdos system. Error code was: -1008 -- houghi http://houghi.org http://www.plainfaqs.org/linux/ http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html > > Today I went outside.

[opensuse-factory] Xgl: a much better way to start compiz on KDE
by Silviu Marin-Caea 14 Jun '06

14 Jun '06

http://en.opensuse.org/Using_Xgl_on_SUSE_Linux In the above page, the user is advised to create a compiz.desktop file in KDE Autostart. This is not optimal, because KDE's window manager kwin is started first, then replaced by compiz. On my machines this also created problems with other programs that are autostarted (have icons in KDE systray). It also has the disadvantage that a compiz.desktop needs to be created in each user's home. I propose a much better way: 1. create /usr/local/bin/compiz.sh with this content: /usr/bin/compiz gconf & /usr/bin/gnome-window-decorator & 2. make it executable: chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/compiz.sh 3. create /etc/profile.d/kdewm.sh with this content export KDEWM=/usr/local/bin/compiz.sh No need to make it executable. This will start compiz directly, not kwin. It's effective for all users of the computer. If that's not desirable, you can add the line with "export KDEWM" to the ~/.profile file instead of /etc/profile.d If nobody objects to this method, I'll edit the wiki page. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] y2pmsh refresh hangs (is this a bug?)
by Azerion 13 Jun '06

13 Jun '06

Sunny day everybody, Because rug/zen does still not work 100% (transaction allready in progress?) I use y2pmsh for packagemanagement (fast and stable). I have the problem that when a source is refreshed, y2pmsh does not continue anymore. Because a lot of people use y2pmsh it seems to me that it would be bugreported and fixed allready, but not it also happens on my new installation. Is this a bug or did I do something stupid (or both ;-) ?

[opensuse-factory] Malformed url Opera/Buildservice repos
by Azerion 13 Jun '06

13 Jun '06

Goodday everybody, who are we gonna blame for the fact that Opera is gonna complain about malformed url when you are browsing in a Build-service generated repository? ( ftp://ftp.skynet.be/pub/software.opensuse.org/ ) As soon as you click in the directory KDE: it is gonna complain. Solutions are using another browser of typing it yourself. Who are we gonna blame for this? The Buildservice-team or Opera?

[opensuse-factory] Factory repository
by jdd 12 Jun '06

I know Factory is not really available right now, but in the way of translating this page I find: http://fr.opensuse.org/Factory_Distribution#Where_can_I_find_it_.3F with difference between YaST and YUM repositories. is this distinction still usefull? I was understanding the latter should be sufficient now? thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] one package test
by jdd 12 Jun '06

12 Jun '06

The page http://en.opensuse.org/Factory asserts that its possible to use factory to test only one package. For me this seems extremely dangerous to do so on a stable main intallation, because I fear a dependecy chain could install from factory a lot of very new packages, breaking the stability of the hole machine. I'm right? In that respect, adding Factory as install source in a stable installation is _very_ risky thabnks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org
