[opensuse-factory] (When) will nouveau be part of openSuSE 11.3?
by Joop Boonen 14 Mar '10

14 Mar '10

All, I'm wondering if nouveau will be a part of openSuSE? If yes, when? Currently openSuSE 11.3 M2 doesn't work properly out of the box on my notebook with a NVidia GPU. As openSuSE 11.3 M2 uses kernel 2.6.33 it potentially supports nouveau. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nzc5NQ Regards, Joop. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] KDE desktop font size
by Felix Miata 12 Mar '10

12 Mar '10

For years openSUSE has been distinguishable from other major distros in friendlier larger default fonts. Until recently while others have been using 8pt or 9pt as the base, oS was using 10pt. As of 11.3M3 at least it has been dropped to 9. Why? -- "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

[opensuse-factory] KDE4 not shutting down
by Donn Washburn 12 Mar '10

12 Mar '10

Hey Group; @ things I have been seeing is 1. KDE4 not exiting properly. it just hangs after bring up the Logout button and pushing it with the mouse. The only way to kill it is either pull the plug (not good) or from a console tty# ps ax then kill -9 #### 2. When going to any other <CTRL><ALT><F1-5> it seems KDE or X left in <CTRL>F7 will just crash with nothing but the normal screen running. When this happens I get a full screen of KDE related error.

[opensuse-factory] KDE 4 and openSuSE
by Donn Washburn 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hey Group; I have a NVidia card which may be causing a problem in 11.3 with KDE4 crashing. However, I can not tell because no kernel will compile an be installed and work using openSUSE's 2.6.33-5 kernel and cloneconfig or /proc/config.gz. NV.run file complains about the correct naming and will not compile to check. This all has been brought up due to the stock 11.3 NV module may keep crashing or maybe it is KDE4. If I start up X and KDE4 comes up then bring up some program like … [View More]

Hi, The 2 blocker issues for M3 are fixed (thanks to Michael, Jeff and Richard) and so far it looks quite ok to release M3. I'm only doing my very first DVD installation with gcc 4.5 and I will need to do some more testing, but unless new stuff pops up I can't forsee atm we're back on track.
