[opensuse-factory] How to manage software from xfce?
by M9. 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Maybe this is not the right place to ask this question, but one never knows if someone can help with this, if one does not ask, right? If i look in 'other', in the xfce 4 menu, i see all the modules from yast 'naked'.(is this intended?) There is however no way to get into yast, or root, to manage fi software. Do i have to understand that this is not possible from xfce, or is there some hidden way to go into root, and call the desired gui-module? tia.. - -- Have a nice day, M9.

[opensuse-factory] Packages for Qt Jambi and Qyoto
by Raúl Moratalla 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

Hi, are there any plans to provide packages for Qt for Java and Qt bindings for C#? It would be interesting to build packages for them into the buildservice, other distributions already have packaged them.

[opensuse-factory] bug 234533 should be solved?
by jdd 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

I'm hit by the bug #234533. It's resolved "wont fix" "because it's a feature, not a bug" but 1) it's a bug only on pci-e (here mini pci, laptop), why this special hardware hve such a feature? 2) the comment on bugzilla say: the patch will be enclosed with 2.6.20 kernel. I have 2.6.22.9.0-4-default and I have still the bug 3) a web search shows that ndiswraper don't works reliably with the bcm43xx module what can I do? do i need to reopen the bug or to try using ndiswraper anyway? thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.ladepeche.fr/article/2007/10/27/127022-Claire-Dodin-une-Toulousa… --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] OpenSUSE 10.3 and HPT372: not working...
by Carlo Politi 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi, I wanted to install the new OpenSuSE 10.3 on my old PC which has 2 UATA-133 connected to a HPT372 controller. When I arrive at the partition screen, install says there aren't HDs... The kernel in this distribution doesn't recognize anymore my UATA-133 controller... When I try 10.1, I can install but when I boot, Grub says a message of error :( Does anybody has mine problems?

[opensuse-factory] [status report] openSUSE distribution, week 45
by Stephan Kulow 06 Nov '07

06 Nov '07

Hi! I've been sick most of last week, so there is little progress since my last report, but * live CD has been released * looks like we have a candidate for a kernel to use on the mentioned driver update. Please give the kotd[1] a test to avoid suprises.

[opensuse-factory] "Would you like to trust this key?"
by Wolfgang Woehl 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Hi, I still have a factory box sitting around -- because it is such fun. After a "zypper update -t package" sysinfo:/ has it as "openSUSE 10.3.1 (i586) Alpha0". I just did "zypper install htop" and got this: Aktualisiere '10.3 - Update Repository' Möchten Sie diesem Schlüssel A84EDAE89C800ACA, SuSE Package Signing Key <build(a)suse.de>, Fingerabdruck 79C179B2E1C820C1890F9994A84EDAE89C800ACA vertrauen? [ja/nein] Which is german for "Would you like to trust this key?" and then Schlüssel A84EDAE89C800ACA zu den vertrauenswürdigen Schlüsseln hinzufügen? [ja/nein] Which means "Add key to trusted keys?" Same thing with the repositories 'FACTORY - Mozilla' and 'FACTORY - KDE:Community'. So the chain of trust here is built by a script just asking? What was the security in this again? Would someone care to enrich this a tad for the upcoming 11.0? Like a note on how and where to check a new key? Irritated, but hey: "No risk no fun" is what all dead rockstars said.

[opensuse-factory] can I use YaST2 Product Creator to create remastered 10.3 ISO?
by Carlos F Lange 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

From this nice overview of the new Creator tools in YaST2: http://news.opensuse.org/?p=478 I get the impression that I can use the Product Creator, the 10.3 GM DVD and the repositories to create a remastered 10.3 DVD with all the bug fixes to date (including the infamous Repair Tool). In addition, I can select only the patterns that we really need in my laboratory, including development tools and leaving all the server packages out. Am I understanding this right? -- Carlos FL Who is General Failure, and why is he reading my disk? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Desktop Effects setup
by Igor Jagec 03 Nov '07

03 Nov '07

Hi there! Do you have any plans to simplify the Desktop Effects Settings? I saw Ubuntu has simplified that by offering 3 options in GNOME Appearance Preferences dialog (I don't know for other GUIs): None: Provides a simple desktop environment without any effects. Normal: Provides improved usability and good balance between attractiveness and moderate performance requirements. Extra: Provides more aestheticaly pleasing set of effects. Requires faster graphics card. The problem is that it's not easy to set that up on openSUSE because there are too many options on Compiz Fusion Settings Manager. It would be very nice if you did some "normal" settings for us who don't want as many effects for some reason (older hardware and so on). Cheers! -- Igor Jagec

[opensuse-factory] bug #336969
by Sid Boyce 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

It seems no one has looked at this bug. Factory is missing several packages, some of the main packages are there, but not the -devel and vice-versa - libopencdk-32-bit and libgnutls-2.0.1-2 are two I just came across. Building libgnutls locally from the src-rpm generates both. This causes problems with "zypper up -t package". Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

[opensuse-factory] [status report] openSUSE distribution, week 44
by Stephan Kulow 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hi! Not sure there is a lot to status report, but I try: - the number of incoming bugs is growing, for some components almost dramatically. So much time is spent in screening at the moment. For a glimpse, check http://tinyurl.com/2cxbto (you're very welcome to help screening duplicates) - the live CDs received heavy debugging and should be released any time soon now (both Michl and me had some post-release vacation time that delayed it) - the promo DVD is readily mastered and we hope to press quite some to give out on fairs - we are preparing a "driver update" mini ISO that people can use where the kernel on the installation medium does not work on their hardware and to fix the "repair system" function - gcc 4.3 is around the corner (see also opensuse-packaging for details) - yast will be updated to have a more modular UI soon That's all I can think of. If you have questions, let me know.
