[opensuse-factory] zypper --clean-deps behaviour vendor bound?
by Cristian Rodríguez 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

Hi: zypper --clean-deps, (great adittion btw, candidate for default behaviour ;) ) appears to be vendor bound.. is that expected ? i.e a) install package X from your home: repository that requires a library Y from the standard repository, which was not previously installed b) run zypper rm --clean-deps X it results in only X being removed, and not X and Y. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] What is wrong with wifi on eee-pc 11.2/11.3?
by Oddball 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

On both, wired work with ifup, on 11.3 also NM works. On both no networkwith wifi, what is wrong..? The interface is clear, and on 11.2 scanning results in finding dhcp network, in 11.3 scanning does nothing at all... Is it in planning to have wifi for eee-pc with 11.2/11.3 or not? It seems to be abandonned for now... i found: http://en.opensuse.org/HCL/Network_Adapters_%28Wireless%29#Realtek RT2870 802.11n USB 11.1 rt2870 Image:22px-Tick.png <http://en.opensuse.org/File:22px-Tick.png> <http://en.opensuse.org/File:Question.png> <http://en.opensuse.org/File:Question.png> Not recognised by YAST. Driver must be downloaded and built from Ralink support <http://web.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html>. Follow the README_STA to build the driver. Module must then be configured to load at startup then wpa_supplicant and ifup configured. Could not get this configured within YAST or Network Manager but it works perfectly using ifup. mine has RT2860, so not much different.. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball, aka M9.

I've looked with lsmod and there's no trace of nv video drivers. Another interesting thing is from xdriinfo :- libGL is too old. I've googled all of these things and have only come up with nvidia problems, nothing that relates to intel graphics.

Still, broken touchpad drivers should be the minority of cases for which kcm_touchpad or synaptiks can be used to turn the feature off simply. Forcing this on all others just because of some broken touchpads is not the solution. -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com

[opensuse-factory] Tracker set to index removeable media
by Atri Bhattacharya 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hi! I see that the tracker configuration is set to index removeable media by default. However this creates a problem when a connected USB-drive has lots of files, and you connect it for a short while and try 'safely removing' it. Tracker keeps indexing data from this drive, and prevents its unmounting until it is done, which in all fairness can take quite long. It might be better to turn indexing removeable media off by default in the tracker settings for 11.3, just as it is for Optical devices at present. -- Atri -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] GDM screen in case of no users
by Sankar P 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hi, I downloaded factory images sometime last week and ran into an issue. I usually work as a non-root user. But this time I was testing factory in a VM and so did not create any new user and decided to play with the root user. However, once the machine is installed, the GDM screen just shows a small unclickable white line and there is no "Other" click-area, which I can click and login as root. Of course I was able to goto control-alt-f2, create a new user and solve. But I believe this is a minor bug in GDM. Is this worth reporting ?

[opensuse-factory] touchpad weirdness after update
by Stefan Quandt 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hi, after an update from 11.2 to 11.3 M7 moving the cursor with the touchpad only.works if when using more then one finger. (also tap-to-click was initially disabled and I cannot get double-click enabled at all) While playing around I found out that the touchpad works normally in kdm and for unknown reason switches to "two-finger-mode" during KDE startup. Then I had to learn, that when logging in as any other user moving the cursor with the touchpad works normally. So the I concluded the cause could be the user specific toucpad config file. So i moved .kde4/share/config/synaptiksrc out of the way. But ... this did not change anything. Any idea what's going wrong here?
