[opensuse-factory] Cinnamon 1.5.7
by Nelson Marques 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

While I'm not seriously thinking on submitting cinnamon back to Factory (as I still have my doubts on how to maintain this), I've fixed the cinnamon packages on GNOME:Cinnamon and updated them to the lastest release (less than 24 hours). On openSUSE 12.2 (installed from GNOME Live CD) it quite rocks... Anyone who wants to give it a go, please take a look at the repository layout and good luck. https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=GNOME:Cinnamon NM PS: There's no openSUSE branding and 'cinnamon-settings' can change pretty much the stuff you need. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed vs. 12.2
by Jiri Slaby 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

Hi Greg, just a heads-up. I am slowly preparing to upgrade to 12.2 on my laptop. There are packages that are already obsolete with respect to 12.2. So I think all kde-4.8 packages (4.8.5 in kde repo, 4.8.4 in 12.2) and at least the following list from package_list should remain in Tumbleweed after you do the switch to 12.2. I'm currently building those in my home repo to see if there are any other that zypper reports to downgrade. But OBS is slow at these times as there are zillion packages in the queue. devel:tools/systemtap devel:tools/perf Base:System/powertop Base:System/libpcap network:utilities/tcpdump devel:tools:scm/git devel:tools:scm/mercurial Virtualization/kvm Virtualization/qemu thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] Ubuntu Font Family
by Nelson Marques 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

Hi, I've packaged ubuntu-font-family a few times, but this packages were made not from the source code, but from the generated .ttf files available for download on Ubuntu Fonts site; I think it would be interesting to have such package on openSUSE as this fonts provide first class hinting and are actually very sweet (awesome alternative for Droid or even M$ fonts). Can we ship those fonts (repackaged from the .ttf) or do we need to build them for scratch? Any ideas to which project I should submit the package ?

[opensuse-factory] xdaliclock does not function as expected
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

After my latest update I have a malfunctioning xdaliclock. I am using it with "xdaliclock -transparent -noseconds -builtin2" but the background won't show as transparent as before. Running it now with a tranparent setting of 50% under "Edit Window-Specific Setting" but this does give me only a complete transparent image of the clock. Xdaliclock, where to send a bug report?

[opensuse-factory] unknown key/invalid rule errors by udevd when booting
by Ilya Chernykh 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

I created a susestudio image for opensuse 12.2 but each time it boots it spams with several hundreds of messages complaining about unknown key/invalid rule by udevd. It takes about 2-3 minutes each time. I wonder what it could be and how to mitigate this behavior. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] openSUSE 12.2 LiveCD incorrectly detects resolution in Suse Studio

Here is what I have after building a LiveCD http://storage9.static.itmages.ru/i/12/0906/h_1346877053_2127491_dfd81ba811… http://storage2.static.itmages.ru/i/12/0906/h_1346877124_6267459_6881dd115a… The USB/Hard drive image works well and resolution is detected correctly.

[opensuse-factory] [Canon] cups unconfigurable in 12.2
by Felix Miata 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

Can anyone print with any kind of Canon? This has always been unnecessarily painful since "upgrading" from a reliable old LaserJet to a Canon MF, but it was easier prior to 11.3, when printing became totally impossible for nearly a year until Canon released a driver update compatible with post-11.2 Cups. In my current 24/7 11.4/KDE3 system I can only count on printing to work printing of plain text files with Firefox. Anything more complicated or in random other apps is likely to flood the print spool and/or cause the printer to error and halt. Same thing happens in 12.1, trying to print a web page in Firefox or Konq4 makes printer "printer data error". This time on a 12.2 system, with a Canon driver updated by Canon just last month, regular user is blocked trying to configure a printer in YaST2 by "restart locally running cups daemon". As root on first in YaST2, I get the printer apparently setup, but nothing happens trying to test print besides what shows up in the cups logs attached, apparently from the sample.drv. On subsequent tries, root gets the same failures as trying to set up as user. Naturally printing from M$ works just fine. Cups output from rpm query is also attached. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
