Feature added by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Feature #306305, revision 1, last change by Title: iFolder for openSUSE 11.2 openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Getting iFolder in a state where we first can get it into Factory and then add it to openSUSE 11.2. iFolder is a simple and secure storage solution that increases productivity by enabling to back up, access and manage personal files-from anywhere, at any time. Once installed, it simply saves files locally and iFolder automatically updates the files on a network server and delivers them to a different machines in usage. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Different people at different locations can work jointly on the same file. They always can find on the server the most current version of the file as iFolder keeps it up to date. iFolder allows more efficient collaboration -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306305

[openFATE 306658] Migration tool from KDE3 to KDE4
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Sep '09

Feature added by: Axel Braun (DocB) Feature #306658, revision 1 Title: Migration tool from KDE3 to KDE4 openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Axel Braun (docb) Description: As KDE4 becomes more stable, many users go (or are forced to go...) to KDE4. To ease this step, esp. in a production environment or within a company, a migration tool is required. For example, I just tried to migrate KMail by copying kmailrc and apps/kmail to the ~/.kde4 path. Mail accounts (POP/Dimap) are copied, but I miss all identities, outbound mail servers and all local mail subfolders. This test is not yet performed for knode, kwallet, PGP, etc...but definitely required -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306658

[openFate 305631] vlan support in initrd
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Feature added by: Bernhard Walle <bwalle(a)novell.com> Feature #305631, revision 1, last change by Title: vlan support in initrd openSUSE-11.2: New Requested by: Bernhard Walle (bwalle) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Quoting from Bugzilla 415389 (because external reporters are not able to create a FATE entry): It would be very useful to be able to create vlan network interfaces in initrd via kernel command line parameters. This makes network support in initrd more complete. In our case we need vlan support because all servers have two physical network interfaces. eth0 is connected to the default vlan, which is internet in our case. eth1 is a trunk interface connected to several internal vlans. We need the vlans to seperate traffic from different virtual machines. Only one vlan supports nfs, other vlans are more restricted or private to a customer owning a virtual machine. Because a xen dom0 server doesn't need much diskspace, we boot them from the network. This requires the initrd to login to the nfs server, which requires vlan support. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: I don't see any business case here. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305631

Feature added by: Pavol Rusnak <prusnak(a)novell.com> Feature #305594, revision 1, last change by Title: Logging support for osc meta and others ... Buildservice: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Pavol Rusnak <prusnak(a)novell.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: * The logging support missing for osc meta and other potentially dangerous ctions. When anyone changes a project conf for example, there's no information who changed what. So the current commit logs support should be extended to all other changes in package/project. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305594

[openFate 305731] Remove scrollkeeper
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Feature added by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Feature #305731, revision 1, last change by Title: Remove scrollkeeper openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: We should remove scrollkeeper from the distribution and only use a rarian-based solution. This implies working upstream on migrating the modules. Also, we could make packages install their help in /usr/share/datatir/gnome-panel/help (eg), instead of /usr/share/gnome/help which is difficult to handle from a package ownership point of view. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305731
