Will the ifolder server be available as a package in the 10.3 release or
will it remain as an external package?

I wasn't what you can call happy when i found out this little software
was removed from factory (and even less so when after reopening it 3 or
4 time the bug was marked as private). No real explanation given.
This was by far the easiest and quickest way to get the Nvidia driver up
and running and i demand explanation. WONTFIX, build it in the BS. WTF!
there is no use to the package if its not right on the cd ...
Now if you don't wanna include it in the default selection this is
totally understandable, but why totally rip the package off ?

Hi
Is there any possibility that we will see online resize of ext3
filesystems supported in 10.3 hopefully with yast?
Warm Regards,

as it is described in
http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Help:Subversion
i've tried several ways:
anonymous-acces (user and password anonymous) wit https, svn over ssh
for example:
https://anonymous:anonymous@forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/livecd
the same thing mit my working novell developer login

Hi everybody,
I was just a bit wondering: would it be possible for the development of
10.3 (I guess that's now the official name, isn't it?) to replace
TuxKart with SuperTuxKart?
I think TuxKart is way obsoleted by the latter one (current official
release v0.2, a new version most likely due in mid feb, with new physics
and full screen support)
Packages are already available in the BS, and I think a 'merge' in the
official tree could be very nice. I would even volunteer to continue the
maintenance of the package build for this package (as I'm maintaining it
already now in the BS).
Is there already an 'official' way to get packages in the official
distribution / replace obsolete ones ?
I understand that such leaf applications should not be the highest
priority, but I remember in 10.2 several users had problems with TK and
'converting' them to STK solved their issues and they could have fun.
Looking forward for your comments,
Dominique

Hi everybody,
I was wondering if it would be possible to get the driver for Texas
Instrument FlashMedia Cardreaders in the next version of openSUSE. The
driver is available at http://developer.berlios.de/projects/tifmxx/
(Version 0.6 so far) and I tested it on 10.2; it works perfect.On the
web page it's mentioned that never versions are part of the main
kernel... but so far, with 2.6.20-rc5 I did not manage to get that thing
working. (ok: I did not compile an own kernel on my Notebook yet....)
It would be very nice to get support for many more card readers by this
driver (TI FM is, as far as I could fine, used in many notebooks, like
for example the IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad z61m)
Regards,
Dominique

In between the external Alpha builds, we make one internal Alpha build
- this week the Alpha0plus.
Are you interested in a most annoying Bugs section for these as well?
This should show you the current state of FACTORY and inform you about
known bugs.
I would create such a page if there is interest,
Andreas

Here're the minutes from last week's meeting.
Topics:
* Use fast linking style:
The linker & glibc in 10.2 support the --hash-style=both (or just
gnu) flag, which halves linking time [ still a major cost on all
startup]. Unfortunately - it seems we only re-compiled glibc with
this flag, and not all the other applications in the system :-) Risk
wise this is a no-brainer, Red Hat are already shipping with
--hash-style=gnu [ this is unfortunate since the binaries are then
not back-compatible ]. We should most likely use --hash-style=both
(at some small size penalty) - but after some time switch over to
--hash-style=gnu to save size.
The size difference is < 0.1 %. We will enable it by default.
* libata per default (see minutes from last time - the partitioning
question is still open)
Moved to next meeting since one (critical) participant was missing.
* Enable -fstack-protector for the new distros for every package
by default
Red Hat according to their press statements builds all of their
distribution using -fstack-protector, the heuristic stack overflow
detection. While we use -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2, this one only covers
known arrays. I think we should also enable -fstack-protector for
all packages. If we enable it by default in the compiler, all
software will automatically get the benefit too.
To analyze what effect this will have on performance we will run
SPEC2000 and build one distribution with and one without the flag.
-fstack-protector only adds protection to those functions that might
overflow but not to all (-fstack-protector=all would instrument
all). We will add it to RPM_OPT_FLAGS at the end of next week.
AI: Run SPEC2000
AI: Build Alpha0plus without -fstack-protector and then rebuild
with it.
AI: Analyze performance and size differences.
* Handling of compat packages
These packages are inherited from old releases. The question is
which libraries are really needed.
AI: to ask on opensuse mailing list what is needed and start
working on tracking list.
Proposal: We consider having a library naming proposal that includes
the version number so that people can easily grab an library
RPM package from an older distro if needed.
AI: write up proposal and discuss it on opensuse-packaging.
* Avahi/mDNSResponder compatibility:
Please assign all bugs to gnome-maintainers, they will look at it
from March on.
* Blacklisting /opt/gnome
We can blacklist this path in autobuild and then packages still
using /opt/gnome for FACTORY will not build. We will first prepare
a list of packages still using it and later blacklist.

Hi all,
Is it possible to have ATI fglrx drivers on factory distribution?
If yes what is the method?
Thanks and regards,
Vincenzo

Bernhard,
as I said: with 2.6.20-rc5 (did not get the latest upgrade to rc6 yet)
the reader is not working. I am completely aware that 10.3 will be on
2.6.20 kernel. And as I said: I did not have a look in the kernel config
yet.. so maybe the module is just not build or whatever... some
fundamental answers would help more here.

PS: Sometimes I'm wondering if people reply to have replied without
even reading some posts or thinking about them. Is there sort of contest
who is posting most replies? Then I would like to participate too.
