[opensuse-factory] Who want systemd as the default for openSUSE 11.4
by Roman Bysh 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Have we heard it right? Is systemd not being implemented for openSUSE 11.4? If not, I vote on having systemd as our default setting. -- Cheers!

[opensuse-factory] Problem removing item from panel
by Thomas Taylor 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Hi all; I'm having a problem removing a widget from the panel. The widget I'm trying to remove is the weather service from the available panel widgets. After dragging it to the panel it does not show up there but is now missing from the available widgets. It did get installed as it asked me for configuration info which it apparently accepted. Today, shortly after the user screen was displayed, the error message "Weather information retrieval information for Seattle/Boeing Fld, WA timed out" (view screenshot @ http://pastebin.com/Yk5GkVdj (KDE-panel-error1). As the screenshot shows, there is no weather icon. So is there any way of removing this non-displaying icon from the panel without deleting the panel and building a new one? This is while running in openSuSE 11.3 with KDE 4.4.4 (rel3).

[opensuse-factory] Firefox status for 11.4
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

Hi, with 11.4 deadline arriving fast (rc1 checkin date is february 4th) I want to give a small notice about the status of Firefox (and other mozilla apps). Here is the latest short term schedule from Mozilla for Firefox 4: http://christian.legnitto.com/blog/2011/01/25/updated-firefox-4-beta-plan/ That means that we would end up having Firefox 4 beta 11 for the GA version of 11.4. This is probably the last beta before they are starting to do RCs. I want to raise the question if we would like to do that or reverting back to Firefox 3.6.13? My favourite would be the former but it basically has disadvantages: - not all addons will be compatible by then - people who cannot do updates for whatever reason will stay with beta And just another sidenote. The next scheduled security releases for Firefox, Thunderbird and seamonkey is probably february 8th which means the first updates for them are needed as online updates apparently before GA :-( Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] gnome shell - window theme problem
by Roelof Wobben 29 Jan '11

29 Jan '11

hello, Im trying gnome shell. I found this theme : http://half-left.deviantart.com/journal/37636660/#/d371nhf So I thought that I could take a matching gtk theme for the window borders. In gnome the themes work perfectly. But as soon as I enable gnome-shell the standard black window borders show up. How can I take care that in gnome-shell a matching theme is working.

[opensuse-factory] DVD and NET load of 6
by Donn Washburn 29 Jan '11

29 Jan '11

Both DVD and NET on 11.4 6 of 6 - fail!! Yes the DVD and CD checked good. Get passed about 95% and due to an incorrect script calling for a /var/cache/?packages/grub.rm it hangs It asked for a directory that is not on the disk or pulled from the net. So, what it does is hang for ever. Pull the plug! On 11.4 the mouse in a console still fails. Also on many recent versions I alway save the configure information so if something dies I can get it back. Problem is that it is in memory and there seems to be no way to reasonable move it to my hard drive. And as a way back I am running 11.3 so far it has a defective Thunderbird even with moon and moon-devel. Call it up and things look correct new mail arrives then click on a new email and it crashes. I replaced it with 3.1.7 and this is from it. -- 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] untouched annoyances
by Felix Miata 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=584493 (from 11.3) & https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665720 have had no apparent dev activity since they were filed. Vanilla kernels, both 2.6.37-18 & 2.6.38-rc2-91-gc723fda, solve them both. How can I help figure out which SUSE patch(es) are responsible? I asked on IRC and got no response about how to find out what those patches are or what they're supposed to do. -- "How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver."

[opensuse-factory] The meaning of DEFAULT_WM
by Guido Berhoerster 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

>From https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=667408 : There is an inconsistency between the use of DEFAULT_WM in gdm / lxdm and in /etc/xinit.d/xdm / /etc/profile.d/profile.sh, the former expects it to be the basename of the session file whereas the latter use it to set the WINDOWMANAGER environment variable which later used by the xsession scripts and expected to be an executable. Vincent has proposed three solutions: a) remove the gdm patch, and live with the fact that gnome will be the default b) standardize the meaning of DEFAULT_WM c) work around this by making sure that the name of the desktop file and the name of the executable are the same In order to implement option b by consistently using the session file name we'd need to set WINDOWMANAGER in /etc/xinit.d/xdm and /etc/profile.d/profile.sh by parsing the xsession file (which is easy since it is just a .desktop file) and edit the yast installer control file to use lxde/kde4/xfce instead of startlxde/startkde/startxfce. Are there any other uses of DEFAULT_WM I'm not aware of? Any objections to implementing option b as outlined above? -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org
