[opensuse-factory] Oxygen icons on Apache
by Javier Llorente 05 Apr '10

05 Apr '10

Hello list-mates, As some of you may know, I've been working on making Oxygen icons available on Apache, and I would like to get some feedback. Do you see any unrecognizable icons at http://www.javierllorente.com/tmp/ ? I want to make it easy to enable. Quoting from the README file included in the apache2-icons-oxygen package In order to enable this collection of icons on Apache, you have to add Include /etc/apache2/mod_autoindex-defaults-oxygen.conf (Apache-wide) to /etc/apache2/httpd.conf. Do not forget to comment the line Include /etc/apache2/mod_autoindex-defaults.conf and comment the following as well in /etc/apache2/default-server.conf Alias /icons/ "/usr/share/apache2/icons/" <Directory "/usr/share/apache2/icons"> Options Indexes MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> (Virtual hosts) to your virtual host configuration file (usually located under /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/). Is there a better way to do it? My idea is to make Apache's directory listing more beautiful. It's already part of the Apache Build Service project and if you like it, I could submit it to Factory. The latest rpm packages are available at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/javierllorente/ Build Service project: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=apache2-icons- oxygen&project=home:javierllorente I was also thinking about dropping apache2-icons-crystal unless someone likes Crystal icons. Comments and suggestions are welcome! -- Javier Llorente

[opensuse-factory] Request to add packages to Factory
by Kyrill Detinov 05 Apr '10

05 Apr '10

Monday 05 April 2010 Hello. I ask to add two packages to Factory: devel:libraries:c_c++/librcd devel:libraries:c_c++/librcc Libraries are a part of RusXMMS project. http://rusxmms.sourceforge.net/ 1. librcd - Russian Charset Detection Library. (required by librcc) Library for autodection charset of Russian text. LibRCD is used for encoding auto-detection. It is optimized to handle very short titles, like ID3 tags, file names, etc, and provides very high accuracy even for short 3-4 letter words. Current version supports Russian and Ukrainian languages and able to distinguish UTF-8, KOI8-R, CP1251, CP866, ISO8859-1. 2. librcc - Russian Charset Conversion Library. Library for encoding conversion to/from UTF-8. Main features: * Language Autodetection. * On the fly translation between languages. * Encoding Autodetection for most of European Languages. * Support for encoding detection plugins (besides Enca and LibRCD) * Cache to speed-up re-recoding. * Possibility to configure new languages and encodings. * Shared configuration file. Not only Russian language is supported. Also supported Ukrainian, Belorussian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Estonian, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Polish, Slovak, Spanish, Slovenian, Swedish. License: LGPLv2.1+ Libraries are well documented. An example how it works is a package 'unzip' in home:Lazy_Kent. Packages in Debian: http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/librcd0 http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/librcc0 Packages in Ubuntu: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/librcd0 http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/librcc0 -- WBR, Kyrill

[opensuse-factory] Opensuse 11.3 mileston 4 accessibility help
by Christian 03 Apr '10

03 Apr '10

Hi all, Could someone please try this before I file a bug so I know that it's not my system that's causing this problem. I am visually impaired, just for your info. I am a quite new user of Opensuse and I know that in some previous releases one could do the following: I have downloaded the Gnome live CD. Booted the cd, then at the boot screen I pressed F9 to get the talking menu coming through my PC speaker. I then pressed enter on Gnome live and waited a few minutes for the system to boot. The screen reader for Gnome should come up talking, Orca but nothing happens and i have no sighted assistance. Or did I miss something? Will I need to do something else after the system has finished booting? Best regards and many thanks for any help, Christian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

Hey Group; Anyone have an idea what causes /etc/X11/xorg.conf to fail when the video "Driver" nv is replaced with nvidia. X complains about this is version 7 ans then dies. nv works and nvidia.run builds correctly and installs properly. -- 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] Re: [opensuse-packaging] Easter and Milestone 5
by Greg Freemyer 02 Apr '10

02 Apr '10

All, Per Petr Uzel below parted 2.2 went into factory this morning. That should mean that milestone 5 has everything to support 4K physical sector disks. ie. kernel, util-linux, parted all should have support for aligning partitions with the underlying topology. I don't know if the yast-partitioner module calls parted or whether it uses libparted instead. Either way I hope that we can get that class of hardware testing started soon. I don't yet have any 4K physical sector drives to test with, but I believe some are available within Novell. Hopefully that testing will include installs etc. and not just partitioning data drives.

[opensuse-factory] New pm-utils 1.3.0 is going to Factory (HAL removal)
by Michal Vyskocil 02 Apr '10

02 Apr '10

Hi community, today I updated Base:System/pm-utils to 1.3.0 (sr 36775 for Factory) - this release has two major advantages: * no HAL - with e8d0b58 [1] it's is fully capable to use udisks/upower * video quirks are included in pm-utils itself I also ported suse additions to udisks/upower/whatever and also partially ported [2] the recently removed powersave command to the upower D-BUS interface - this port is not completed, as I did not find an equivalent of some HAL functionality (CPU scheduling classes), so if anyone will able to point me, it'd be great. Please let me know if you'll discover some bug. [1] http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pm- utils/commit/?id=e8d0b58a9df080f021d04b4c2d358003974092f3 [2] http://gitorious.org/opensuse/pm-utils- suse/commit/1c481c5bbca907cef8d758f5a1dd63ce3661c48b Regards Michal Vyskocil

[opensuse-factory] cronie status
by Michal Seben 02 Apr '10

02 Apr '10

Hi all! Cronie is moving to Factory, After testing update process, I found that best way how to switch to cronie as a default cron in openSUSE is simple move all cronie sources and patches to old cron package. so we will jump from (old) cron-4.1 to new cron-1.4.4 (which is cronie) and we don't need to use various hacks then (switching from cron to cronie is not update) I already do this with cron in Base:System and I also created sr against openSUSE:Factory If you have already cronie installed just remove it zypper rm cronie If you hit some issues please file a bug report. bye michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

OK, but it builds and runs fine and is an improvement on minicom though it's not been updated in over 5 years. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
