Is this just me? If so why - after repeated attempts. DVD images themselves are OK as ids the KDE live (I don't use Gnome so skip that). I will try anyway to boot the images. -- Cheers Richard (MQ) Linux user # 439271 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] problem with rc2 on a laptop
by jdd 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Hello, I just "zypper dup -l" on a laptop (netbook, in fact) and have problem It's a very old install that run without (major) problem since factory 6 month ago, regularly upgraded I didn't use it for nearly 3/4 weeks, so don't know what was the previous install. now with RC2, I can boot init 1, but not init 3, and issuing init 3 after boot make the computer stop accepting keyboard input (but it's not crashed as pressing the switch makes it close gracefully). The network connection is through wlan, this may be the problem. Starting the network simply give nothing - the status is 'active (exited)", but ifconfig do not show any interface apart lo the update was made through wlan, so I know it should work :-) looking at dmesg, I see only eth2 is tried and of course don't work (not connected). launching yast, I'm warned I have to use network manager, but don't know howto do this from init 1 :-( so revert to traditional ifup. going to wlan, I notice I have a fixed IP 89.234.168.110 / 21 (why 21?) I do not remember to have ever setup - but I may have done it and forgotten like this the wlan is up, but do not get any IP from dhcp. I notice also that the wlan led is not lit I beg I have to find some wired connection ideas? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 12 RC2 - curious artwork at kde boot
by jdd 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Hello, I use a 6 years old computer, mono processor so not very fast. When I log on kde, after typing the passwd, the openSUSE chameleon is replaced by "BUILD ON OPENSUSE" (on two or three lines, upper case), then I see a blu screen with bubles and then again the normal openSUSE artwork. a bit weird. Looks like a susestudio application with remaining kde artwork. But this install come after numerous zypper dup, and the last one made it necessary to keep old openSUSE artwork, so may be local problem jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] RC 2 links on software.opensuse.org
by Steven Sroka 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Someone might be half way though adding the RC2 iso's as I write this, but I don't know for sure. On software.opensuse.org it provides access to RC2 now, but the links are dead - 404 error. And great work so far on 12.1! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Status: RC2
by Stephan Kulow 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Hi, Over the long weekend both factory and 12.1 bootstrapped and I fixed some oversized ISOs. Unfortunately the DVDs did not boot as linuxrc only supports SHA1 and we switched (unknowingly) to to the more secure SHA256 for repository signatures. The tests I ran looked ok, but we have nothing but "SHA256 not supported" from openqa. So we need to rebuild DVDs one more time, but hopefully we have something to publish tomorrow. We still have 2 issues with mysql (#727706 and #712749) and two with systemd (#726823 and #724912). Additionally to that we have this hanging udev in installations that are reported by some - but we had that with 11.4 too, so I'm easy with releasing with the problem. Hardware specific problems come and go and very seldomly it makes sense to wait for updates as they just break other hardware ;( What we need now is testing installation and update stack, everything beside that do not matter at this point but get in the queue for maintenance.

[opensuse-factory] Test with RC2
by Freek de Kruijf 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Last night I tried to install RC2 and all the previous hurdles are gone. Installation went smooth with a small problem in a niche not many users will come. So thanks team for that. I believe 12.1 will rock. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
