-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, As to be seen in signature, just updated to latest factory... Ran into minor problem: as there was no possibility to select an error message ( personaly i find this most irritating..especialy when testing..), i choosed to make a screenshot. While starting ksnapshot the desktop frooze, no keyboard input, only mouse movement... had to shutdown with button. Fortunately this happened at the end or the update, and i wanted to register the complaint about a pkg that could not be found, (sync in progress on KDE4 at same time..turned out later..)so it completely rebooted, only the Yast2-update-Factory module was broken.. (reinstalling it 'cured' the problem ;) Conflicts: | #### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2008-01-25 16:04:49 #### | | MPlayer-1.0rc2-1.pm.1.x86_64 requires libdirectfb-1.0.so.0()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed | | [ ] deinstallation of MPlayer-1.0rc2-1.pm.1.x86_64 | [ ] DirectFB-1.1.1-3.x86_64 niet installeren | | | libxine1-1.1.8-0.pm.2.x86_64 requires libfusion-1.0.so.0()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed | | [ ] splashy-0.3.8-3.x86_64 niet installeren | [ ] deinstallation of libxine1-1.1.8-0.pm.2.x86_64 | | | | #### YaST2 conflicts list END ### There was also a gcc41 and gcc++ dep-problem, but i choosed to keep the installed ones for now. - -- Have a nice day, M9.

[opensuse-factory] Hungarian compound word analysis in OOo
by Kálmán Kéménczy 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Hi there, Hungarian compound word analysis doesn't work in the last Novell's OpenOffice.org with patched Hunspell. An example: "macskamedve" (cat bear) is a correct compound word in Hungarian, but Novell OpenOffice.org (2.3.1.0.2) doesn't recognise it with the correct Hungarian dictionary. Without this patch everything's works fine. So please disable the patch the following row in the patches/src680/apply file: hunspell-hashify.diff, i#50842, dkeskar/jholesov This has been already disabled in the ooo-build trunk. Here is the changelog: 2008-01-05 Rene Engelhard <rene(a)debian.org> * patches/src680/apply, patches/src680/cws-unifysound01-solenv.diff, patches/src680/cws-unifysound01-vcl.diff, patches/src680/unittesting-vcl.diff, patches/src680/binfilter-stl.diff: ooh680-m1; temporarily disable hunspell-hashify.diff, gcc-4.3-binfilter.diff * patches/src680/apply, configure.in: default to ooh680-m1, we should switch to ooh680-* anyway and afair two mwses are not supported (would add unneeded conplexity, too) * patches/src680/apply, patches/src680/warning-comparsion-is-always-true-or-false-binfilter.diff: remove obsolete patch thanks kalman --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] b43-fwcutter
by Dominique Leuenberger 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

Hello, would it be possible to also include b43-fwcutter (not only bcm43xx-fwcutter) into factory? b43-fwcutter is needed for newer firmwares / chips. Working packages (I used them myself) can be found for the moment in home:dimstar. Thanks!

[opensuse-factory] Alpha1 installation completed
by Dominique Leuenberger 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

Hi, so, my 'clean' installation of Alpha1 just succeeded... in average a good experience, and I did not see all of the Most annoying bugs ;) On the other hand I have a 'much more annoying bug' than any on the list, but first I'd like to see if somebody else has that too: - Firefox is not startable (*** Buffer overflow detected *** ) (Bugzilla #354150); I'd say it could be mentioned on Most annoying? - Gnome Main Menu does not open; I can keep clicking on it. (Did not find a bug entry for this one... somebody else sees it?) Anyhow, I'll just try to upgrade to some later factory (especially for firefox, as it's reported to be fixed there) Dominique -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Can't Rescue 10.3
by Felix Miata 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

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? -- "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Alpha0 has the blocker issue.https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=346872 which is fixed. But where can I get installation Images for Alpha0 with above fix??? How can I proceed with installation on PPC64. --Regards Omar --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
