[opensuse-factory] BoF results?
by Jos Poortvliet 25 Oct '12

25 Oct '12

Heya all, So, while recovering from the conference, it's a good idea to make sure what was decided actually happens. Tip: it helps to not just write it down but put it in a news article - that forms a nice public whip ;-) So how about it, can I get some 'stuff' about what was decided send to me for the final day/conference conclusions article?? :D Hugs, Jos

[opensuse-factory] Status of systemd/hwclock/ntp bugs?
by Bjoern Voigt 24 Oct '12

24 Oct '12

Hello, since openSUSE 12.2 I see, that the system time is always wrong under the following conditions: - openSUSE 12.2 - BIOS clock stores localtime - systemd init - ntp is configured as server or as "update time once on boot" and uses external ntp time servers - NTPD_FORCE_SYNC_ON_STARTUP="yes" in /etc/sysconfig/ntp (default setting) - no network connection to ntp servers on boot After some debugging I found, that BIOS clock is always set to UTC (Europe/Berlin - 2 hours) on boot, when /etc/init.d/ntp start is executed (indirectly by systemd). On next boot system time initializes from the false UTC BIOS time. There are several bug reports about systemd clock bugs: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=774553 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=779440 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785868 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769535 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=773323 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=764690 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=732769 Are there chances to get this bug fixed? I think, that the unconditional option "--utc" in /etc/init.d/ntp such as /sbin/hwclock --systohc $HWCLOCK --utc --noadjfile causes the problems. Of course, setting BIOS time to UTC fixes the issue, but this is not an ideal solution for dual boot PCs (especially with Windows XP). Having a stable internet connection is also an option. But what about mobile devices (e.g. notebooks with openSUSE and Windows XP)? Here is my full setup and a demonstration: /etc/sysconfig/clock without comments SYSTOHC="" FORCE_SYSTOHC="no" BADYEAR="no" HCTOSYS_DEVICE="" USE_HWCLOCK="yes" USE_ADJUST="no" TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin" DEFAULT_TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin" /etc/sysconfig/ntp without comments NTPD_OPTIONS="-g -u ntp:ntp" NTPD_RUN_CHROOTED="yes" NTPD_CHROOT_FILES="" NTP_PARSE_LINK="" NTP_PARSE_DEVICE="" NTPD_FORCE_SYNC_ON_STARTUP="yes" NTPD_FORCE_SYNC_HWCLOCK_ON_STARTUP="yes" /etc/localtime lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 23. Okt 11:28 /etc/localtime -> ..//usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin cat /etc/adjtime 0.000000 1350982587 0.000000 1350982587 LOCAL demonstration: # date Tue Oct 23 11:30:54 CEST 2012 # hwclock Tue Oct 23 11:30:58 2012 -0.735161 seconds # /etc/init.d/ntp restart redirecting to systemctl # date Tue Oct 23 11:31:05 CEST 2012 # hwclock Tue Oct 23 09:31:08 2012 -0.750796 seconds <<< UTC !

[opensuse-factory] New package(s): vegastrike-data and related
by Claudio Freire 24 Oct '12

24 Oct '12

As customary, I'd like to present a set of new packages I've been pushing forward. Vega Strike[3] is an open-ended 3D space simulator, in the genre of Elite and Privateer. Although releases are far apart, development is active and ongoing, and there is a decent user base, spanning Ubuntu, Fedora, Windows and some Mac users. The engine (vegastrike), with which at least 3 games are built, has been accepted into factory a while ago and has made it into 12.2. However, the legal review (and related cleanup) for the data bundle of its (rather massive) flagship game, "Vega Strike: Upon the Coldest Sea", has taken a lot longer than anticipated, and has just reached Factory. Optional music (SR 114869[0]), speech (SR 120493[1]) and extra texture packs (SR 120470[2]) are awaiting similar review, and though they could face similar setbacks I'm hopeful the hard part is over. I hope you are as eager to play it as I am to provide it. Cheers [0] https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/114869 [1] https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/120493 [2] https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/120470 [3] http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] repositories for 12.3/??factory
by Patrick Shanahan 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

I have installed milestone0 for 12.3 in a vb and am somewhat confused in trying to determine which repos should be enabled and have been unable to remove that confusion in reading the wiki's on opensuse.org. Is there a wiki or web page describing a setup to test 12.3 or factory? If not, what repo's are advised. tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] No gcc available in openSUSE 12.3
by Freek de Kruijf 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

For some testing I need to have gcc in openSUSE 12.3, however trying to install gcc I have a large dependency problem. It is only possible to install after downgrading most if not all of KDE to 4.8. -- fr.gr.

I have just upgraded my laptop to openSUSE 12.2. I've got several issues. - I have got this bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=716652 even though it was marked as fixed since openSUSE 12.1. I had wi-fi non-functional after update and had to connect via cable to find the solution - The system files to update CPU microcode on boot. - Plymoth shows a black rectangle in the upper-left corner on the splash screen. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner(a)opensuse.org
