[openFATE 307726] libzypp/Zypper/YaST -> direct access to build service

Feature added by: Johannes Obermayr (jobermayr) Feature #307726, revision 1 Title: libzypp/Zypper/YaST -> direct access to build service Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Johannes Obermayr (jobermayr) Description: I have often the problem that my built packages are not published in my home: directory on http://download.opensuse.org/home:/ (or only many hours later ...) So I think it would be a nice feature if libzypp, Zypper and YaST can handle projects/subprojects located on https://api.opensuse.org/build/... as repositories. Maybe it is a duplicate of #306578 or related to it. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307726

[openFATE 306940] NX/NeatX remotable desktop sessions
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

Feature added by: Tin Blaskovic (canobix) Feature #306940, revision 1 Title: NX/NeatX remotable desktop sessions openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Tin Blaskovic (canobix) Description: Since the NX server (http://www.nomachine.com) libraries are GPL-ed, there is now a Google project Neatx (http://code.google.com/p/neatx/) that provides a free clean and stable NX server implementation. Together with FreeNX client libraries and a standalone client (http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/freenx/trunk/freenx-client/nxcl/) , all the components are now available for adding out-of-the-box support for a remotely usable personal Linux desktop. Right now it can be achieved by manually loging into a failsafe X session and starting an NX session to a local server. That session can then be detached and resumed remotely, exhibiting the characteristics (including the speed) comparable to, if not better, than an MS windows terminal (remote desktop) session. It would be handy if creating a "remotable" session that works as described above would be automated and could be chosen from the login screen, so in addition to "KDE", "GNOME", "Failsafe" and other session types, there would be a "KDE remotable","GNOME remotable" or similar types of sessions. Since many of business users still primarily work at their desktops, this would enable them to more easily work remotely, as well as bring Linux desktop features on par with that from the Windows world. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306940

[openFATE 306933] Integrate Social Desktop into our Desktop
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Feature added by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Feature #306933, revision 1 Title: Integrate Social Desktop into our Desktop openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Description: Social interaction between people becomes more important than ever. Communicating over the Internet via mails, forums and internet platforms is just normal. Just think of Facebook, Flickr, BitTorrent... One of the strongest assets of the free software community is its worldwide community of contributors and users who believe in free software and who work hard to bring the software and solutions to the mainstream. Core idea of the Social Desktop is to connect to your peers in the community, making sharing and exchanging knowledge easier to integrate into applications and the desktop itself. The concept behind the Social Desktop is to bring the power of online communities and group collaboration to desktop applications and the desktop shell itself. This feature is about the integration of such a social desktop into our desktop. If integrated it should be simply to use its functionalities but everybody needs to have free choice to use it or not. The targetgroup of the new community / social network is not only developers but also the end users who are not familiar with technical stuff and can with an integrated social desktop get easily in contact with people in the same area or people with same interests or software issues. Creation of some kind of facebook for openSUSE may stimulate the openSUSE adoption and bind existing users to the distribution. This could be beneficial for the marketshare of openSUSE. Another aspect is that this kind of communities can transform users into contributors.

[openFATE 307753] Share files with others remotely - Dropbox by default
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Feature added by: Rastislav Krupansky (ra100) Feature #307753, revision 1 Title: Share files with others remotely - Dropbox by default openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Rastislav Krupansky (ra100) Description: Seeing that openSUSE is focusing on social networks, or the web applications like YAST elements - WebYAST, i think it would be great to offer something for synchronization files, sharing and work with others remotely. I think good choice might be Dropbox, which is multiplatform. Nautilus has already extension - nautilus-dropbox, but i don´t know whether any plugin is available under Dolphin, XFCE, etc.. I haven´t found yet. The one of ways could be here - http://antrix.net/journal/techtalk/dropbox_kde.comments -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307753

[openFATE 307200] Replace ifconfig by iproute2 - add warning messages to old tools
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 08 Feb '10

08 Feb '10

Feature added by: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) Feature #307200, revision 1 Title: Replace ifconfig by iproute2 - add warning messages to old tools openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) Description: Because Novell once again cannot be convinced, I am putting https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492665 to public vote here. net-tools (/sbin/ifconfig, /sbin/route, arp, etc.) has numerous problems, not to mention that it is not developed since April 2001 anymore. Since April 2004, iproute2 is available as a replacement for ifconfig, but users still use the old tools with the seemingly-crippled functionality. I propose printing a warning message upon invocation to try and educate users to finally use the modern tools. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307200
