[opensuse-factory] bugzilla to test
by jdd 23 Apr '11

23 Apr '11

I want to let a trace of tested packages. I wonder if I could use bugzilla for this, for each reporter have to first scan bugzilla, and if there is a test it gives a starting point. What I could do is: * open a bugzilla entry, eventually as enhancement or minor bug, assign it to me and close as fixed * fill it with the details of the tested configuration. do you think it's a good thing?? thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed KDE - BUG#656144
by Steven Sroka 23 Apr '11

23 Apr '11

I am unable to test the KDE version that is going to be released with Tumbleweed in the near future, but for those who are testing it, does bug#656144 still exist? Essentially root programs are run with the plastique theme and not the default oxygen theme do to an issue upstream with oxygen and dbus. I'm having trouble getting an answer for the upstream devs so I want to ask Tumbleweed KDE testers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] new devel project for rpmlint
by Ludwig Nussel 22 Apr '11

22 Apr '11

Hi, rpmlint updates bear a high risk of breaking other packages and even causing bootstrap issues due to it's use in the build root. Therefore rpmlint* and potentially also brp-check-suse and post-build-checks should be moved to a dedicated devel project to avoid annoying others in Base:System IMO. Where would be a better place? cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] running factory?
by jdd 22 Apr '11

22 Apr '11

Hello, I would like to test Factory asap, to avoid the present untested multimedia status of many apps, but I don't find how to do :-( http://software.opensuse.org/developer?lang=fr send to and from there I don't really see how. I suppose I can start from an 11.4 install and change the repositories to factory, but do I have to remove all the 11.4 repos and add what exactly? this one? http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/ thanks jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Updated oprofile
by Vincent Lejeune 22 Apr '11

22 Apr '11

Hi Oprofile package is using latest stable version (0.9.6) which is 2 years old. However this tool is still developed. Stable version misses support from several newer CPU (such as latest AMD processor (family12h, family15h)). Would it be possible to switch to a non-stable version ? I packaged a more recent oprofile using sources provided in CodeAnalyst source, which comes from a oprofile cvs and at a revision that provides support for their latest processors : https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=oprofile&project=home%3Avlj… Besides, the /proc/kernel/nmi_watchdog has moved to /proc/kernel/watchdog with current kernel and this change has not been reflected in opcontrol script.

[opensuse-factory] Very strange download problem.
by Carlos E. R. 21 Apr '11

21 Apr '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Several people have reported the same problem with downloading updates in 11.4: the download gets stuck on a certain file, with yast or zypper. (I'm reporting here for 11.4 because I need devs to look at this). What they have done: Try zypper, delete repos, add again. Several times. Try wget. Try mozilla. Try different mirror. The result is always that certain files (the same file for each user, but sometimes different files for different users) get stuck, do not download, when they reach some percent. Other files download fine from the same repo servers. It is different private networks (no corporate or campus proxy). Try another machine with windows or ubuntu: it works. Try 11.3 or 11.2, same machine: it works. What? Try 11.4 *failsafe* - it works. What? What? Booting failsafe works? How come? :-O You see how much this is strange? Do you have ideas on how to investigate or solve this? Please tell. Or ask directly the last user having this problem here: View this thread: <http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php?t=458014> Or: nntp: forums.opensuse.org newsgroup: opensuse.org.help.applications Subject: Problems updating or dowloading certain softfware openSUSE 11.4 Other threads: 'Unable to DL RPM's from update repositorys' <http://tinyurl.com/3nmnrmq> 'yast online update vs system tray update' <http://tinyurl.com/3qpru9q> - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
