[opensuse-factory] Currently usable?
by Jason Boissiere 02 Oct '08

02 Oct '08

Is the current factory comparatively stable, or in flux before the official beta 2 release? Is upgrading from 11.0 likely to leave a booting system, or a pile of smoking wreckage? x86 on fairly stock Dell hardware.

As you probably are well informed about the fact of a new entry in the ticket (after all you just entered it). Is it this behaviour you wanted to address?

[opensuse-factory] Where can I file a bug report against bugzilla?
by Dave Plater 02 Oct '08

Hi, I have noticed that often the reporter of a bug does not add himself to the cc list and as a result does not know what is going on with the bug. Surely bugzilla should automatically add the reporter to the cc list.

[opensuse-factory] Has the kernel split into three packages?
by Dave Plater 02 Oct '08

02 Oct '08

Hi, I'm just going through the beta 2 update packages in the new factory and I see yast wants to install three kernel packages :- kernel-pae - Kernel with PAE Support, kernel-pae-base - Kernel with PAE Support - base modules and kernel-pae-extra - Kernel with PAE Support - extra modules. Where can I find information on what has happened to the kernel in opensuse?

[opensuse-factory] grub bug #428127 - will it be fixed?
by Di Pe 02 Oct '08

Hi, I'm just wondering if this one will be fixed in beta2 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428127 It's a pity that many people could not really test beta1 x64 because of this.

I just installed a test system with opensuse 11.0 (2.6.25.16-0.1-pae) with KDE 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.1(KDE4.1.+20080828)) release 52.2 from the factory repository. I found two items which may be bugs or just not completed yet. 1. on KMENU under system-->terminal there is no longer an option for a super user terminal (KDE 3.5.9-44) has this option. Do I need to report it as bug, is it incomplete or was it removed? 2. Under personal settings I can no longer find where to set up the device icons. It is under Personal_Settings-->desktop-->behavior on 3.5.9. Do I need to report it as bug, is it incomplete or was it removed? Thanks for any help. If this is not the right place to ask, let me know. -- Russ Linux register user 441463 openSUSE 11.0 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Bug 430944
by Birger Kollstrand 01 Oct '08

01 Oct '08

Hi, I have a question on a bug i wrote. Please look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=430944. Is this really how it should be usability wise? I find it strange that when the task is completed to "Install hypervisor and tools" it still remains for the user to use?
