[opensuse-factory] Milestone 6 observations
by Karl Sinn 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Hi, Milestone 6 is installed. I have discovered the following: - during installation, although set to german the release notes are shown in english - dolphin: on left is this "Orte" window. When I add a new entry there I can not change the icon. Although I'm allowed to choose, my choice is simply ignored. - dolphin: same place. While choosing to see this new entry not only in dolphin, I can not see it later in ktorrents file dialog (I didn't check this in other programs) - Firefox doesn't know about the *.torrent files, I have to tell him myself where to find the ktorrent application (by the way: what is the difference between /usr/bin/ktorrent and /usr/bin/X11/ktorrent?) - firefox: flashplayer is not working - ktorrent: I maximise the window. Then by click on the systray icon I make it disapear. When I click again to see the window it is resized and doesn't show up maximised as it should - ktorrent: UPnP doesn't work. It doesn't show the routers in my network as does ktorrent UPnP on my KDE3 - kicker (or what was named kicker before :-) ): on the right side are two small icons for closing the session and lock the desktop. before I had two nice icons there, now it's the same "terminal" icon for both. Normal? - double click: In the KDE system settings and in the filebrowser of ktorrent (I didn't test more than that :-) ) I need double clicks to navigate although system settings are set to single click This may be linked to the plastic style. When I started to configure KDE I had single click, and then one moment it changed to double click... - From the main menu the "install software" is not functional - A bug in Yast2 which is quite old... I have two DVD drives. If I have a DVD in the first one and the SuSE DVD in the second one, YaST doesn't detect the install media for software install. I have to take the other DVD out to make it work - miniprogram "Wörterbuch" dictionary. It's a nice feature, but I can not change the settings for the languages I want. It defaults to english/german - I don't find the configuration of the kicker (is it still called kicker under KDE4?) If any further information is needed, then please ask me. The same if a bug report should be filed, please tell me. I'm helping with the testing for the first time and therefore am not sure about what is worth a bug report and what not :-) Thanks Karl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] SuperKaramba wigets in KDE4.3?
by Clayton 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Has anyone tried to add SuperKaramba widgets in KDE 4.3.0 (I'm running KDE4.3.0 Factory on 11.1)? I've added the latest SuperKaramba build for 4.3.0 and it's there in the AddWidgets menu. I can select SKZ files (one's I've grabbed off of KDE Look), but they are never shown in the Add Widgets window. I haven't tried on 11.2m6 yet - I can't get the repos configured/added on 11.2m6 yet.

[opensuse-factory] Zypper dup and grub menu.lst
by Jarno van Roosmalen 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi all, I just did a zypper dup from M5 to M6 on two machines (one x86 one x86_64). After the update my menu.lst was completly empty except for the section to chainload into my windows partition. The new kernels were correctly installed but the bootloader config was gone. I had to manually tell grub the paths to the kernel and initrd to boot (on one machine, on the other I could fix it before rebooting). Moreover the menu.lst.bak contained axcatly the same empry config als the new one. has any of you seen this same problem? Should I file a bug. kind regards, Jarno van Roosmalen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Milestone 6 boot slowdown
by Karl Sinn 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi, while starting MS6 I can see that he is looking for something on fd0. During this time the boot process is stopped. It takes a quite long time and is annoying... In /var/log/boot.msg I find this: <3>[ 20.132625] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 <3>[ 32.292363] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 <3>[ 32.292573] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 <3>[ 44.456384] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 <3>[ 44.456590] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 <3>[ 56.864374] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 <3>[ 56.864581] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 Can this be the lines that correspond to the problem? It looks similar as on the screen while boot up, but not the same :-( Unfortunately I don't know where else to look for information...
