[opensuse-factory] Missing kernel-syms and wron Kernel headers in dvd 11.0b1
by Daniel Fuhrmann 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

Tried to rebuild madwifi source to get online, because kernelmodul ath5k doesn't work with my card. Unfortunately I can't rebuild madwifi Package because of missing kernel-syms on dvd and wrong kernel headers (dvd provides 2.6.24) greetings Daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Strange yast2-qt-pkg behaviour
by Dave Plater 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

Hi, I'm experiencing a strange problem with yast2 qt software management. If I click the X on the title bar to close after selecting a package for installation and then click cancel on the message box asking if I want to abandon all changes, instead of returning to yast the window exits but the process y2base sw_single qt stays running and I have to kill it before I can run zypper or yast again. I first found this behavior in yast2-qt-pkg-2.16.37 from build service but after downgrading to factory the problem persists. Has anybody else experienced this problem?

[opensuse-factory] Package integrity failed for no reason?
by Volker Kuhlmann 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

There seem to be quite a few packages failing an integrity check, although there seems to be nothing wrong with them. E.g. (from most annoying bugs): avahi, beagle, cups, hal, ntp, openssh, PolicyKit, postfix But not aaa-base, dbus-1, fuse There is nothing wrong with installing the packages with rpm -Uvh (and I am NOT pleased that the packages are deleted immediately after download - it's a waste of bandwidth and time). Is this a transient problem or more systematic? Is there a workaround? #383576 Thanks, Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann is list0570 with the domain in header http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] KDE4 failure
by peter nikolic 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

Hi .. Well bit the bullet donwn loaded 11.0b1 and installed on a spare drive on the laptop "Compaq V5030 64 bit amd ati m200 graphics "hate it but " ALI sound " installe went well found and correctly set the display sound network well almost it keeps finding the wrong driver for the network card rtl 8139 , think thqt is a caseof blacklisting the wrong module so it only loads the correct one . Now as a lot of you will know from previous posts i dislike KDE4 but thought i would give it another look well my opinion has not changed at all still ages away from ready and not at all useble far too many issues so went back to KDE3 (installed both 3 and 4 at the time of install ) and was forced to accept the bulk of gnome (got Gno time for it at all rather have the old OLVWM back) ran KDE3 did what i need to thought i would go back to KDE4 see if i could get it to at least start behasving correctly but it would not even start the screen just goes black with a mouse cursor on it but noting else at all no errors in the X logs the only way out is got to a text consel and init 3 init 5 back to normality this happens every time i try 4 now and i did not even try messing cause it did not start any thing springs to mind out there or is 4 going to remain bin fodder .. # Pete . -- SuSE Linux 10.3-Alpha3.

[opensuse-factory] considerations on installing factory via net
by ¡ElCheVive! 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

Hi! In april 21st I installed the factory (beta1) via internet (http) and I saw some things that I didn't "appreciate"... * After I choose the Language (pt_BR which is almost full translated) the installer told me that downloaded the language extension but the only part which was translated was the right side of the installer (the one with the steps...) *I don't know why the installer installed a text-mode grub regard the graphical one...(I test the automatic option which is nice!) *After had the system up and running I realise that the some language packages where installed correctly (firefox-translations, yast-pt_BR, etc) but some ones not (bundle-lang-common and bundle-lang-kde where installed only in "en) I don't know if it is because I install via internet or if it is a bug.... regards, Luiz Fernando Ranghetti --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

My wifi connection works fine on my Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG card once I boot and I select my named (and configured) WPA connection via KNetworkerManager.

[opensuse-factory] grub-0.97 patch error
by Peng tao 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Hi, all I'm a student working on an opensuse GSoC project which aims at enabling ext4 file system as grub legacy boot patition for opensuse and others. As I was told in the other mailing list, I downloaded the latest src.rpm file from http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/s… After unrpming the source package, and following the patch order in grub.spec, all patches are applied successfully (wildcard patches are disabled in grub.spec, so I didn't apply them either). BUT, there are some problems without wildcard patches. The dir function declaration in stage2/shared.h is modified in stage2-wildcard.diff and this modification is needed by other files in stage2 directory. Without it, I got compiling errors saying disk_io.c: In function 'print_completions': disk_io.c:1481: error: too many arguments to function 'dir' disk_io.c:1500: error: too many arguments to function 'dir' After making the following changes, everything goes right. --- stage2/shared.h.orig 2008-04-22 11:06:15.000000000 +0800 +++ stage2/shared.h 2008-04-22 11:14:48.000000000 +0800 @@ -1006,7 +1006,7 @@ /* List the contents of the directory that was opened with GRUB_OPEN, printing all completions. */ -int dir (char *dirname); +int dir (char *dirname, void (*handle)(char *)); int set_bootdev (int hdbias); Hope there's someone taking care of this:-) -- RGDS Bergwolf ................
