Hello,
I prepared updated syslog-ng packages with the close supervision of
Marius Tomaschewski, the maintainer of the syslog-ng package. They are
available in home:czanik in the openSUSE BS. I would like to see these
packages included in Factory, to replace the ancient 2.0 syslog-ng, but
MT seems to have disappeared (no response to e-mails in the past two weeks).
Questions:
- it works fine on my machines, but could anybody else test it?
- what is the proper way to get syslog-ng updated in factory, if the
maintainer seems to be unavailable?
- I have now both 3.0 and 3.1 packages there, called syslog-ng and
syslog-ng31. The ultimate goal is to include 3.1. Should I drop the
current syslog-ng package and rename syslog-ng31 to syslog-ng?
Bye,
CzP

Hi,
I'm asking here a question not related to factory directly, because I want to reach the devs. You
can reply on opensuse list instead if you prefer.
To keep it short (longer post in the opensuse list), I'm attempting to upgrade from 11.0 to 11.2 (32
bits) using the retail DVD, wich turns out it has only the x64 version. It offers to upgrade to 64
bit the 32 bit install:
The architecture of the system installed in the selected partition
is different from the one of this product" [continue] [cancel]
I said "continue", then I checked the package list. As far as I could see, it intended to replace
all packages with those corresponding to the 64 bits version. If this works, fine... but I was
afraid, and I cancelled. Not because risking data (it is a copy), but because of possible waste of
time. I thought I'd better RFC.
Has anybody done this, an upgrade from 32 to 64 bits? Does it work? Is it "supported"?

It would be good if we would start with collection release notes
snippets for 11.2 now. Do not hesitate to provide input!
Here is some background information:

Hi,
granted, it's not a very sophisticated or scientificly relevant observation,
but I thought I'd share this with you, since the live CDs are likely the first
thing a new user is going to try out before he decides which Linux
distribution or desktop environment he'll choose.
I measured the times it takes the current 11.3 M6 live systems to boot up in
both VirtualBox (virtualbox-ose-3.1.4-106.2.i586) and qemu-kvm
(kvm-0.11.0-4.5.2.i586) on my Thinkpad T61 (Intel Core2 Duo T8300(a)2.40GHz, 4GB
RAM, running openSUSE 11.2, 32bit). I used the ISO images directly, no CD-ROM
drive is involved here.
I used a stop watch to measure the time from the point at which GRUB loads the
kernel until the desktop is usable and fully loaded. Both virtual machines
were configured to use 1GB of RAM. Out of curiosity, I also included the
latest Ubuntu 10.04 release for comparison. Can anybody repeat my observation
that the GNOME live-CD is much slower than the KDE one? I would have actually
expected it the other way around. What also surprised me was the difference
between VirtualBox and KVM.
Product Time (qemu-kvm) Time (virtualbox)
openSUSE-GNOME 11.3M6 0:02:17 0:03:45
openSUSE-KDE 11.3M6 0:01:40 0:02:50
kubuntu 10.04 (KDE) 0:01:35 0:01:59
ubuntu 10.04 (GNOME) 0:01:17 0:01:36
Anyway, I don't know if this is useful or if anybody actually cares about this
aspect. From a "first impression" perspective, anything above 2:30 minutes
feels like a very long time, especially if there is no visual feedback about
what's going on - the GNOME bootup spends a lot of time in displaying a black
screen with a busy cursor...
Bye,
LenZ

Hi,
http://www.suse.de/~coolo/factory/ shows some statistics about the
rebuildtime of factory. You can see in the graph how many packages
can build in parallel and how many are waiting for others to finish.
As you can see, half the rebuild time we wait for OpenOffice - but note
that this is not really true in practise as the real rebuild time is not
dominated by the time OpenOffice builds, but by the time the many
packages that _could_ build in parallel are build in the workers we have.
So even if we could rebuild all packages with unlimited workers in 24 hours,
in reality it takes at least 48 hours (which is the reason we usually only do
it friday to sunday).
The longest path worries me a lot though, but I have no good idea how
to avoid e.g. swig being behind mysql.
Greetings, Stephan

Yeah, go ahead if you have tested it already since february.

Hello!
I have installed M7 on my T410s and now I am suffering from Bug #591703. I
used YaST to swicth to NM and installed the firmware for WLAN (Intel 6300).
When I boot with wired ethernet, everything seems to work fine: NM connects
to my wired and wireless networks. However, when I boot without the wired
ethernet connected, NM does not show any of the configured wireless
connections and cannot connect when I try to set up the wireless connection
again.
Additionally, netconfig seems to conflict with NM, in /v/l/m I find:
| linux dns-resolver: ATTENTION: You have modified /etc/resolv.conf. Leaving
| it untouched...
| linux dns-resolver: You can find my version in /etc/resolv.conf.netconfig
Is there any way to fix the network setup until RC1 is released?
Gruß
Jan

Hi there,
I would like to request an addition of mdds library to the
devel:libraries:c_c++ project. Mdds stands for Multi-Dimensional Data
Structure, and is a collection of C++ templates that provide optimized
storage and lookup of multi-dimensional data. I am the author and
maintainer of this library, and I am willing to maintain this package
for SUSE.
I have already packaged this library, which is now sitting in my
personal home project. I would like that moved into a more generic
project, such as devel:libraries:c_c++.
Here is where it is packaged right now:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=mdds&project=home%
3Akohei_yoshida
The project home page is here:
http://code.google.com/p/multidimalgorithm/
As this is my first attempt to have my package included in the SUSE
distribution, any advice or hand-holding of how to get it in would be
much appreciated.
Best regards,
Kohei

Hello all,
Hope that next-coming 11.3 will be shipped with latest Subpixel
rendering features, in order to avoid previous home-brew changes with
special patched files and configs.
Cheers,
