/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

FYI: Current freetype in FACTORY is broken, use the version from Alpha4
instead of updating,

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?

Hello,
I installed the latest factory, and I quite enjoy it, especially the
part of adding repositories from the build service easily. I got just
one 'little' problem: on PPC all of these repositories are empty (OK, I
could probably find some 'noarch' :-) ). Any news on this? Or still 'no
public info' or 'in a few months'? Bye,
CzP

Hi all,
made a fresh install from the beta2-ISO at 25th August. Nearly everything
went fine. Interesting in this case is that suspend to ram was working
until last wednesday, when i made an update with smart. Only two
repositories are listed in smart: factory and factory-non-oss. But since
i made this update my notebook didnt wake up correctly after suspend to
ram. Screen is staying blank, background light is switching on and after
a short while there is no more harddisk activity, fan is turning up and
thats it.
The only way to get the notebook "back to live" is to switch it off the
hard way with a long pressing at the powerbutton. Needless to say that
there are many messages from fsck regarding the filesystem (clearing
orphaned inodes and replaying journal), so it seems to be dangerous at
this time to use suspend to ram.
My machine is a toshiba A 100, Intel T2300, 2GB Ram, ATI X1600, 160 GB
SATA Harddisk with ext3fs.
Anybody else has the same problem? Where can i look for some logs
regarding the suspend action?
Thanks, Jens

I had a failing IDE HD as /dev/sda, so I installed 10.3 on a new SATA
drive /dev/sdb and was booting from it until I removed /dev/sda. The
SATA drive is now /dev/sda, but it won't boot, just the cursor on the
top of the screen.
Booted from DVD to rescue, altered fstab and menu.lst was changed from
(hd1,0) to (hd0,0), still won't boot and grub commands give unrecognised
device string errors.
menu.lst now says
gfxmenu (hd0,0)/boot/message
No luck.
Thnks and Regards
Sid.

Hi Susers !
Ubuntu team have just developed an excellent technology, that existed
in Windows for many years before.
More specifically, the ability to recover from Graphics Adapter
misconfigurations.
It is called: BulletProofX !
I would like to see this included into openSUSE (11.0 ?), and
available as an addon for openSUSE 10.3.

Is there someone who does not experience this bug with Beta2? If not, I
should raise it to "Blocker".

Dear all
Is that possible to install pin by default?
So we can create the next great thing call pin-install ... meaning base
on the pin info after locating the package which is missing and trigger
the install ?
Thanks
Alex

Hello all,
I've been talking to some people about the Pidgin defaults and we agreed
that the upstream defaults are not really sane.
We have an opportunity to get this patched with sane settings.
Apart from https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=304635, does
anyone have any other suggestions on what defaults we should have?
Thanks,
Magnus
