[opensuse-factory] unexpected / undocumented question during 11.1 -> 11.2 upgrade
by Greg Freemyer 12 Nov '09

12 Nov '09

Okay, I decided to try out the <http://en.opensuse.org/Upgrade/11.2> process via zypper. (I had been testing wagon, because I assumed others were testing zyperr.) Remember upgrade via zypper dup and wagon are both now supported. This is not at all what I expected. I first updated my repos as requested in: <http://en.opensuse.org/Upgrade/11.2#CLI> I then disabled the old repos and added the 11.2 repos. (See detail 1 below my sig for exactly how my repos were setup.) I then tried the last of the preparation steps: zypper refresh # Refresh the local metadata and repo contents zypper in zypper # Pull in zypper from the 11.2 repository It is the results of zypper in zypper that I find very unexpected. At a minimum the Upgrade page needs to warn users to expect this extreme behavior is what is expected. See below: =========== Several pages of example output > sudo zypper refresh Repository 'openSUSE 11.2 Non-OSS' is up to date. Repository 'openSUSE 11.2 Oss' is up to date. Repository 'openSUSE 11.2 Updates' is up to date. All repositories have been refreshed. gaf@tiger3-64bit:~> sudo zypper in zypper Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...

[opensuse-factory] After update to RC2 - X11: Keyboard and Mouse deactivated
by Ralf Krüdewagen 08 Nov '09

08 Nov '09

Hi and Moin, after upgrading my HP nc6400 notebook with intel graphics driver from openSUSE 11.1 to openSUSE 11.2 RC2 I had the problem, that keyboard and mouse were deactivated after starting KDM or GDM. So, I couldn't login to KDE. The following error appeared in /var/log/Xorg.0.log: (WW) AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled. (WW) Disabling Keyboard[0] (WW) Disabling Mouse[1] This happened with the following settings in xorg.conf (working in openSUSE 11.1): Section "InputDevice" Driver "kbd" ... Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Even after removing xorg.conf keyboard and mouse were deactivated. And the same after starting sax2. After googling for a solution I found this thread: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2009-April/045418.html It seems to be a problem with HAL. So, I configured the evdev driver in xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" Driver "evdev" ... Section "InputDevice" Driver "evdev" and installed the HAL policy file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/x11-input.fdi from http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2009-April/045418.html. After restarting HAL, keyboard and mouse were working in X11. However, to double-check the problem I removed both changes (HAL file and driver back to kbd and mouse). After restarting the system (init 0) I had no more problems with keyboard and mouse, even though the config was the same than before when I had the problems. And the "AllowEmptyInput is on" warning is still existing. Very strange.

You can always change to default but why? The desktop kernel is tailored for desktop use so unless you run a server in which you need more throughput than lower latency then use the default in the other case use the desktop kernel.

[opensuse-factory] 10 point advantage of using openSUSE
by Atri 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hi! Now that 11.2 is (almost) upon us, I was thinking it would be a nice idea to have something like 10 points that openSUSE does differently and better than other linux distributions, listed on the wiki. It might serve as good promotion if the link to the wiki is ready by the time the release announcement is made and it is referred to in the announcement. Of course it might be 15 rather than 10, but the point is to have some of openSUSE 11.2's *really* special features listed here. Let me know if you think this is a good and feasible plan, and let us quickly agree upon the points we should highlight (how many, what, etc.) and we can put this up on the wiki as soon as possible. -- Atri -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Mitigating Multi-boot Issue [Re: [opensuse-factory] Feature #308284: Ship openSUSE 11.2]
by Greg Freemyer 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Intentional Top Post The below discusses the technical issues of resolving the multi-boot issues with other pre-installed linux distros. The conclusion seems to be it is not feasible to address without delaying 11.2 beyond reason. It does NOT mention how to mitigate the damage from the fact that we have a major issue that many testers will hit. The answer is very aggressive notification to testers and a well documented process of how to fix the issues that occur. Even with as short a remaining time as there is I believe there is time to address those to issues. I have not even read one message about this issue prior to this thread, but if it is as major as it sounds below, then I strongly urge the project leaders to evaluate the issue mitigation strategies as opposed to their issue resolution strategies.

[opensuse-factory] Feature #308284: Ship openSUSE 11.2
by Stephan Kulow 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hi, I want to play the voting game one last time for 11.2. For 11.1 many complained that the quality was too bad to ship. For 11.2 I want to test something: collect your votes. I created https://features.opensuse.org/308284 so we can hear your oppinion. Please do not comment +1, but use the comments for real arguments. And note that I can't say if this works this way. We have to try - this is in no way binding, but if the voting comes out to be seriously negative, I promise we will not ship. If you want to test: the live and net isos are under http://download.opensuse.org/factory/iso/ (as usual) and the 11.2 repo is uptodate. DVDs I can't offer at this point.

[opensuse-factory] Samsung Q11 vs. Install
by Joachim Reichelt 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Hi, I got a really olf Samsung q10. 933 MHz, 384MB, DVD extern via ieee1394, USB1.1 only. I want to give it a try as a "netbook". Works well: I can boot from some USB sticks and got the live cd up. I can install from within running live cd. Problems: I cann ot use the optical medium, as there is no ieee1394 driver in the kernel. I cannot select "Install" during boot, as the system hangs shortly after selecting install (from USB) I cannot use my old wlan (Dlink) -> no really free driver (Firmware is not "open") :-; Known Problem for all. -- Joachim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Wiki entry on Wagon (ie. zypper dup gui)
by Greg Freemyer 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

All, I've been trying to edit the 11.2 Upgrade pages on the wiki. I came across <http://en.opensuse.org/Wagon> which had no content at all. I've added some, but I guessed at much of the overview because I don't know the background. Since Wagon (yast2 wagon) will likely be used heavily in OpenSUSE in the 11.2 rollout, I hope someone can review and correct what I did. fyi: my one and only attempt actually upgrade a 11.1 system to 11.2 RC2 ended with a segfault and now yast won't run. I'll have to troubleshoot my system a few days from now, but it would be good to get more testing of the Upgrade via wagon before the release. Is wagon a supported upgrade method with this release?

[opensuse-factory] lastest zypper up
by Donn Washburn 04 Nov '09

openSuSE 11.2 Emerald RC2 Has again caused Amarok to crash at bootup. I did track the problem before and fixed it but this time I have no idea. I did a "strace -fo amarok.err amarok" and a amarok --debug 2>amarok.err. It happened on openSuSE 2.1.1 and my compiled 2.2.0. OpenSuSE's version would also only play 20 of the 850 files in the directory that I specified as the Playlist. Now it just crashs right off. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb(a)comcast.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb(a)arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Network not working on os-11.2 RC2 dvd

Hi, I just tried using the openSUSE 11.2 RC2 build 339 x86_64 dvd to update and it couldn't access any of the repositories I enabled. I tried automatic dhcp and manual configuration and although I could ctrl/alt/F2 to a console and ping download.opensuse.org and resolve the url Yast installation couldn't access anything. Anybody else had a similar experience? Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 11.x: What is the relationship between nscd and nslcd?
by Joachim Schrod 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hi, I know you're all busy with the 11.2 release, but maybe someone can give nevertheless me a quick answer on that question. TIA. :-) :-) In 11.1 the new package nss-ldapd was introduced, with the daemon nslcd. It is supposed to be used for LDAP connection pooling when one wants to have LDAP being a nameservice source, like passwd or group. Since quite some time nscd, the nameservice cache daemon, also has that functionality as a side effect. Since programs don't make nss queries themselves, but contact the cache daemon, only it connects to the LDAP server. How is that supposed to work together? -- Shall one use only one of them? -- Or both? -- Does nslcd replace nscd when one uses LDAP? There are no dependencies in the packages and no notes in the documentation (that I found ;-)) what is the best practice concerning these nameservice lookup daemons. Can anyone spend some light on this issue, please? Joachim PS: It's also quite irritating that nss_ldap still exists with the old PADL README* files, as in 10.x, but nss-ldapd claims that it's a reimplementation of nss_ldap -- and both packages include the same /lib/libnss_ldap.so.2. So either one or the other README is wrong. :-( I also don't know if one should install both nss_ldap and nss-ldapd or only one of them. No dependencies, no conflicts; argc, argv, aaaargggghhh, ... PPS: Philip Thomas recommended to ask this question here, and not on the opensuse mailing list. I'm a new subscriber, so I hope I didn't break any mailing list etiquettes. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joachim Schrod Email: jschrod(a)acm.org Roedermark, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RC2: Kate crashes
by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Hello Mates, some days ago i've updated my System to RC2. Now i have an Problem with kate: Start kate via KMenue the Program crashes. If i start it via kate in the Konsole the Program runs. I compared both and i noticed, that the KMenue uses %u as initialisation. Maybe this doesn't runs with RC2? -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Member openSUSE Ambassador openSUSE Marketing Team openSUSE Build Service Web: http://saschamanns.gulli.to Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com ClaimID: http://claimid.com/saigkill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
