/lib/modules/(stock2.6.21kernel)# du -s
60804 .
/lib/modules/(my2.6.21kernel)# du -s
538292 .
That's a 785% increase in space consumed by my modules over stock modules.
Does that happen for anyone building their own Factory kernel? Can a more
normal space consumption be made to happen by a mere mortal kernel building
novice like myself?
What I did was:
1-apply the patch from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7513
2-zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
3-make menuconfig to add smbfs and change the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION
4-make
5-make modules_install
6-INSTALL_PATH=/boot make install
7-fix the resulting broken /boot/grub/menu.lst

Friday I determined that 4096 was an inappropriate blocksize for my
non-libata hda19 Factory / partition. I booted 10.1 from hda7 and did a cp
-a on that partition to another partition, reformatted to the 1024
blocksize, then did cp -a back to it. I then tried to mount and chroot to it
in order to run grub-install. Grub-install failed due to the non-existent
target device. Copying the hda19 device file from the 10.1 / and trying
again didn't help. I tried to do a rescue installation, but both rescue
modes apparently failed for a similar or the same reason. Is it possible in
Factory to do a rescue? If so, how?

Hi,
from various discussions in bug reports I know that brp scripts for the following are installed in autobuild:
- check whether .la files have an empty dependency_libs line
- check whether .la and .pc files have references to the build root
- check whether .desktop files have all their icons installed
Are these scripts publicly available somewhere? They are not distributed with rpm, build or osc and I could not find them anywhere else either.
If not, would it be possible to publish these (and others, if present)?

Hi all,
I've been working with Marcus (darix) on your BuildService team to
create an official (open)SUSE package for our open source rendering
solution - Aqsis.
http://software.opensuse.org/download/graphics:/rendering
Though the packages will remain on the BS for older (open)SUSE
releases we would like to have Aqsis included within your official
repository for the forthcoming 10.3 release.
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/oss
Our efforts are both stable and tested and we're happy to maintain
this package for the necessary duration of your release (currently 2
active maintainers).
This would be great help to our project as well as much appreciated,
complimenting our existing packages within the official Fedora and
Mandriva repos.
Many thanks in advance,
Leon Tony Atkinson

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

Hello,
With all the great discussion on the topic, We need to get it going. I
like the IRC, but really think a summeray is needed on the email list to
keep consistency across time zone.

Novell recently introduced "SUSE Linux Enterprise Thin Client Solution"
http://www.novell.com/news/press/novell-introduces-suse-linux-enterprise-th…
Does someone here know if this TC solution is based on a netboot SLED10
image "only", or if it also possibly and alternatively can make use of
the NX clients/server solution for Linux and Windows without the need to
boot a new OS?
Does possibly openSUSE 10.3 include this TC solution as OSS or non-OSS?
Rgds,
Terje J. Hanssen

Hi all
I have been trying to get LTSP 5 working on SUSE lately and the very
initial test packages are up.
Download and install kiwi-desc-ltsp > 0.1.9 from here:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/cyberorg/openSUSE_10.2/noarch/
You also require kiwi, kiwi-desc-netboot and kiwi-pxeboot from:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/openSUSE:/Tools/openSUSE_10.2/
Change the installation path (/mnt/iso) to your installation path.
Run as root "sh /usr/share/kiwi/image/kwltsp-suse-10.2/setup-ltsp.sh"
If everything goes right this script should setup /opt/ltsp/suse,
/etc/exports, sshkeys and netboot images.
Follow the output on screen.
PXE booting the client should get a LTSP Display Manager through which
you can log in using any account created on the server. You also
require to setup dhcp and a/tftp server.
You would need ssh server running, no running X required on the server.
The real work of porting all the LTSP 5 scripts to SUSE will start
now, for that I require help.
Have a lot of fun
-J

Hey Group;
I have the record player > phono In > line out going to the sound card
Line In. Hopefully the impedance is good enough and the level is OK.
It plays out of the speakers and sounds OK also. Now for the question ?
I would like to save the music as a mp3, ogg or whatever. Kmix spots it
as a Line Input. What is needed to capture it and put it in a file.
Say like a mixer record output

May I suggest a change to /etc/init.d/boot.crypto ?
First the "real life context":
I prepare my /etc/crypttab and my /etc/fstab for quite a few different external encrypted disks.
And I don't attach them all at the same time, esp. not at boot time.
/etc/init.d/boot.crypto shouldn't bother attempting to mount disks,
that are not currently attached.
Now for internals of the script:
The test "cryptsetup isLuks ..." should be preceded
by a test on the existence of the "device",
i.e. the symlink in /dev/disk/by-id/ .
So far, if "cryptsetup isLuks ..." returns false,
"this is used for things like swap or other temp mappings",
as the comment in the "else" branch says.
So because that's used already for something meaningful,
there should just be another test beforehand.
And this is my suggested code:
if ! test -L "$device"; then
echo -e "device {$device} does not exist currently.\n"
ret=1
continue
elif cryptsetup isLuks "$device" &> /dev/null; then
----------
Actually there is also something else, I would like to suggest.
I really prefer names like "scsi-SATA_FUJITSU_MHT2080_NN5AT43149CP-part4" over names like "sdb4" in /etc/fstab and also in /etc/crypttab .
You guess why, don't you?
We don't know in advance, in which order we attach / detach / re-attach ... external disks during the weeks and months.
And "sdb4" assumes (somehow), that the disk is the 2nd SCSI disk.
But maybe "today" we only attach it as the 3rd.
And for the same reason names like "sdb4" should also not be used to create names in /dev/mapper/ .
The entries with names like "sdb4" in /etc/fstab and in /etc/crypttab get created by yast's "System / Partitioner".
It's not really a major effort for me, renaming "sdb4" to something more flexible,
everytime we attach yet another external encrypted disk,
but I guess I am not the only one doing so.
So a few others around this globe might enjoy such an improvement, too.
----------
I would really enjoy seeing the suggested changes in 10.4 or so ... :-)
Kind regards,
J.
