[opensuse-factory] factory to beta3 and other
by Putrycz, Erik 08 Oct '08

08 Oct '08

Is there a simple way to upgrade from factory to beta3 and in the future to the final release? I'm not sure I always will want to live in factory land.

[opensuse-factory] modules gobble disk space with built kernel
by Felix Miata 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

/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 -- "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.

[opensuse-factory] update yesterday no boot any longer
by Ralf Prengel 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hallo, after the full factory-update (including kernel) the system doesn t boot any longer. what I ve seen that only a vga parameter is show in the first green bootscreen. I hope the problem will be fixed by using a rescue disc and changing the menu.lst. Or are there other known problems? -- i.A.

[opensuse-factory] Someone has installed the ATI video drivers in Opensuse Beta 2 or 3?
by Juan Erbes 04 Jun '08

04 Jun '08

Hi! Someone has installed the ATI video drivers in Opensuse Beta 2 or 3 without problems? I Tryed to installa the latest ATI video driver and the compilation of the kernel module fails. It can be affected by starting with the boot parameter pci=nomsi? The graphic card is a Radeon HD 2400, and I have installed the source and headers of the kernel.

[opensuse-factory] 11.0 RC1 - odd choice of kernel
by Per Jessen 03 Jun '08

03 Jun '08

I've just installed 11.0 RC1 on an old Pentium II with 384Mb RAM. The installer chose to install an SMP+PAE kernel, which I find pretty unusual?

[opensuse-factory] More Dependency frustration! (RANT)
by Larry Stotler 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

Here's a list of some of the frustration I experienced trying to install RC1: Unselecting the yast-fingerprint reader deselected almost all of YaST!(qt, networking, etc) WTF???? Sorry, but that's ridiculous. I am constantly frustrated by all of these hardware dependencies that I DON'T have and should have to install: Bluetooth iPod Fingerprint? Like my 1999 Thinkpad 390X has that. irda - I have NEVER used this and it's bad to even install it. I've seen people's laptops get wiped from windows because they didn't know that their infrared was active. When i deselect this, it says it can't install laptop utils. WHY??? Why is this a dependency? Why is ANY hardware a dependency. Some of us don't have stuff like ISDN, Firewire, USB - yes, my Wallstreet powerbook doesn't even have USB so WHY should I have to install utilities to support USB? Granted, if I did get a cardbus USB card I would need it so I can kinda understand USB, but the rest? I've never even owned a firewire device. or an ISDN modem. The default install has TV apps? How about a popup that says - if you want to install your specific hardware, click here and select what you have. Sorry to rant, but I've complained about this since 10.0 was in beta. While hard drives are a lot bigger now, it's irriating to have to waste all this space on stuff I don't have, don't use and/or don't need. I could go on and on, but I'm done for now. I stick with openSUSE because I have used SuSE since v5.3, and no other distro has anything like YaST for configuration and I've always liked the selection that openSUSE offers. But while I not only run Linux on my Dual Core Celeron(overclocked 100%), I also run it on a 500Mhz P3 and a 266Mhz G3 among other older hardware. Having the same distro across platforms is such a great thing. Sorry if I am asking too much. It's definately gotten better, but it still has a ways to go. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RC1 light and shadow
by Michael Schmuker 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

Hi, I just installed RC1 on my Lenovo Thinkpad T60, with KDE 3.5 as default desktop. My experience: - During installation, I set the default boot entry to my old 10.3 installation. This resulted in having "default=2" in my menu.lst. But upon first boot, both 10.3 entries (default and fallback) have disappeared, and guess which OS was booting by default... Win XP!!! (OMG!) Anyone else had problems with the installer not copying previously existing entries? - First boot does not use kexec anymore. It did for beta 1 or beta 2 on this machine... has kexec been dropped? - There's a typo (possibly instroduced by the spell-checker in the german translation of the slideshow during installation - on the slide that announces OpenOffice it says that openSUSE ships the most recent office suit (which might be a nice feature btw, but hard to implement when installing from the internet ;) ) - The branding looks super-cool. The cloth-like texture during installation does a good job hiding gradient artefacts on 6-bit panels. Unfortunately, this is not the case for the kdm login screen: It looks kind of weird because the gray gradient shows blocky artefacts and also colors. Of course, I understand it's too late now to change the branding for the login screen. Otherwise, I'm very happy so far with RC1. Kudos to all of you!

[opensuse-factory] Version of FireFox in 11.0

Hi everybody, I was wondering if we ship 11.0 with FireFox 3.0beta5 at the end or if there will be an update to the RC release beforehand? I know it's rather late, but I thought FF was somehow in the position to be pushed.

I managed to install 10.2 (I think it was) on a Toshiba laptop with 144M RAM and a P100 CPU, but it was very painful. The key is to create a swap file in advance and manually activate it ASAP. I may try again with 11.0 on that machine which now has Damn Small Linux on it (and fairly usable too). I'm off now to test 11.0 RC1, as the download has finally completed... -- Cheers Richard. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] problem with reach of factory repo
by Tamas Sarga 31 May '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, It seems I can't reach the factory repo. I installed b3 two weeks ago. I haven't got the kernel update, and how I can recall absolutely no updates from factory. Packman repo give updates. I can't even install from factory repo, I have to download the rpm with a browser and install it by hand. If I start a check for updates with updater applet, it shows an error. If I start yum, and choose update if newer available, then nothing shows up. In addition I can't add more repos, I tried kde:backport, it also shows no reach error. By a browser I can reach the repos, so it's not a simple network error. How could I examine the problem? TIA.

[opensuse-factory] AIGLX
by Francis Giannaros 30 May '08

30 May '08

Users tend to ask about AIGLX quite a bit. Why do we not have this enabled by default, where possible? Xgl is nice and a lot of people prefer it (including myself), but a lot of people prefer using AIGLX too. Having it enabled by default where possible of course also provides the possibility of switching between compiz/kwin/metacity easier too. If not setting it up by default, perhaps we could consider having a script similar to gnome-xgl-switch for setting it up a little more easily for users. Any thoughts?

[opensuse-factory] Powerbook G3 & RC1
by Larry Stotler 30 May '08

30 May '08

Reposting because the attachement wasn't compressed. Fixed now. --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Larry Stotler <larrystotler(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, May 30, 2008 at 2:13 PM I've noticed a couple of things with the Beta/RCs that I probably should have posted before. They are not really bad, but they are different from my i386 install. 1. There are no green and black graphics on the graphical install. It's always grey. Not a big deal, and it probably is faster without them. 2. The new IDE-SATA driver that sets my IDE drive as sda in my thinkpad doesn't work on the Powerbook. So, it's still hda and hdc on the Powerbook for the hard drive and CD-ROM. 3. My Dlink 690TXD card(rtl8189) wasn't detected by the installer nor is it listed in lspci. There is an onboard 10Mbps BMAC controller, and it worked fine. The DLink card was detected just fine under the Thinkpad. Well, the update failed. I tried to see what packages were to be installed(it had added Aparmour.....which was set to taboo under Beta3......) and YaST crashed: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'zypp::Exception' what(): Cannot open file /etc/zypp/locks YaST got a signal 6 at YCP file /mounts/mp_0002/usr/share/YaST2/clients/packages_proposal.ycp:37 /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.call: line 480: 2229 Aborted (core dumped) $OPT_FBITERM y2base "$Y2_MODULE_NAME" $Y2_Mode_FLAGS $Y2_Module_ARGS $Y2_MODE $Y2_UI_ARGS *** An error occurred during the installation.

[opensuse-factory] firefox and beagle
by Putrycz, Erik 29 May '08

29 May '08

I did a default gnome install with beta 3 and the beagle firefox extension got installed. However the default gnome setup did not include the desktop beagle extension and everytime I launched firefox, it complained about the .beagle directory not being accessible. After installing the desktop indexer, the error message is gone.

[opensuse-factory] Unused direct dependencies
by Christian Morales Vega 28 May '08

28 May '08

I make a quick test on openSUSE 10.3, not sure about how it's in Factory but I don't see a better mailing list. I just run "ldd -u -r /usr/bin/*" and... the list is big!!! Someone has looked the problem in detail? Is memory usage or startup time notably increased because of this? In any case these unused direct dependencies, even if they are indirect dependencies, end like *unneeded* "requires" in RPM metadata, correct? What impact have them in metadata size and resolver time? There are some cases where the number is *really* high. $ readelf -d /usr/bin/vumeter | grep NEEDED | wc -l 61 $ ldd -u -r /usr/bin/vumeter | wc -l 53 Note that I have no idea what vumeter is, it's just a random example I saw it in the list. There are easy solutions? I suppose that if right now all packages aren't built with -Wl,--as-needed is because that would break a lot of things. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

I have never been able to get the update mechanism to work. I have seen lots of threads on this topic though. It's not that I am new to SUSE either. I don't think it make sense to go into much detail since we are about to move to RC1. So I will ask, will I see the update zypper manager work properly with RC1 ?

[opensuse-factory] Pulse-Audio rights (pulse-rt group)
by Dominique Leuenberger 28 May '08

28 May '08

Hi list, This post might be a bit off-topic, nevertheless it goes together with development of new versions. I just tested yesterday VLC 0.9 (also not released yet, but RPMs are available), which also supports Pulse-Audio. Weel, what can I say: it 'works', as to say the best of it. But the sound is very choppy. Actually Fedora has the same issue (talked with some group members). Adding the user to the group pulse-rt apparently fixes this issue and gives enough privileges on those devices. What mechanism is there in place to 'escalate' those privileges on the go? Maybe something like PolicyKit, granting an application to have it's users join a specific group or so? What's the risk of putting everybody in the group pulse-rt (or have it's devices de-coupled and add them to users, to not have to add everybody to that group in plus?)

[opensuse-factory] no automagic reboot?
by Peter Czanik 28 May '08

28 May '08

Hello, Is there any way to disable the automatic reboot at the end of installation? I know, I have ten seconds to cancel it, but it is quite boring to wait for it :-) If there isn't (and I could not find anything related on http://en.opensuse.org/linuxrc ), then I'll add a feature request for it. Background: I have a PPC machine, where the installer does not install a bootable kernel. Right now all I can do is to boot inst32, go through all of the linuxrc menus up to the point where I can start an installed OS. Then once installation is finished, then go to the command line and run: mkzimage --vmlinux /boot/vmlinux --initrd /boot/initrd --cmdline root=/dev/sdaX --output /boot/zImage (or just mkzimage --vmlinux /boot/vmlinux --initrd /boot/initrd --output /boot/zImage , as most users prefer to add boot parameters at firmware level, and it would also make scripting of it simpler). Of course, the ideal situation would be, if Olaf did not oppose this solution, and it was done automagically on each kernel install/upgrade. But until that I would like to do this before rebooting the machine and without needing to catch that 10 seconds, so going through linuxrc menus could be avoided and the real kernel could be used. BTW: this is especially problematic now, due to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=373569 Bye, CzP --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] [status report] openSUSE distribution, week 22
by Stephan Kulow 28 May '08

28 May '08

Hi, I missed it yesterday, but don't want to miss the status report as there are only good news as far as I can see :) - We have only 1 failing package atm and that one is only internally for testing if you can install all packages (which you usually can't :) - There are only 3 bugs I track as blocking the release (this is of course _before_ RC1) - RC1 will be released this week - including these 3 bugs. - there are currently 57 blocker+critical bugs, most of them is being worked on and hopefully most of them will be available as online updates - We extended our update repo to include a driver update: http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.0/ So at least for those that have internet access, we'll be able to fix bugs on the installation medium. The medium will have "URL" under the Driver/F6 menu item. Happy testing of RC1.
