[openFate 305472] Support transaction triggers for rpms
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Jan '13

21 Jan '13

Feature added by: Vincent Untz <vuntz(a)novell.com> Feature #305472, revision 1, last change by Title: Support transaction triggers for rpms openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vincent Untz <vuntz(a)novell.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: It's important to be able to run once after all packages have been installed a command (instead of running the command after each of x packages getting installed, which would make the process much slower). That's basically a post-transaction trigger. For background, see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=365649 and especially comment #14 from Stanislav. (note that this is work that should be done in upstream rpm, not as patches) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305472

[New: openFATE 308705] Show Grub boot menu when resuming from hibernate (suspend to disk)
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 10 Jan '13

Feature added by: Rafael Belmonte (EagleScreen) Feature #308705, revision 1 Title: Show Grub boot menu when resuming from hibernate (suspend to disk) openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Rafael Belmonte (eaglescreen) Description: When I resume my computer after hibernate (suspend to disk) with OpenSuse, Grub boot menu is not displayed, so I am forced to boot into OpenSuse in the case of a dual boot system. Other GNU/Linux distributions like Debian/Ubuntu display the Grub boot menu when you power on the computer after hibernate with GNU/Linux, and booting into MS Windows (or other) is offered. The next time you boot again into GNU/Linux it resumes the last hibernated session. I think OpenSuse should follow this line too. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308705

[New: openFATE 312582] Separate repos devel, QA and production with package promotion

Feature added by: Justin Yaple (yaplej) Feature #312582, revision 1 Title: Separate repos devel, QA and production with package promotion Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Justin Yaple (yaplej) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: It would be great if after a package was built it would by default be placed into a devel repo for the project then it could go through some initial testing and be promoted to the QA repo where it would go through more seriouse testing to finally be propoted to the production repo where it would be downloaded. This would allow a separate repo be used in separate appliance builds in susestudio and allow for a separate devel beta and production appliance.

[New: openFATE 308497] Update to GRUB v2
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 08 Dec '12

08 Dec '12

Feature added by: Jeff Mahoney (jeff_mahoney) Feature #308497, revision 1 Title: Update to GRUB v2 openSUSE-11.3: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jeff Mahoney (jeff_mahoney) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Every single bug or feature that anyone has developed for GRUB 0.97 has been rejected by the upstream project in favor of using GRUB 2. There has been resisitence in the distribution community to switching boot loaders, but this stalemate isn't going to go away. The code itself isn't well written or well maintained. Adding a new feature involves jumping through a lot of hoops that may or may not work even if you manage to work around all the runtime limitations. For example, a fs implementation has a static buffer it can use for memory management. It's only 32k. For complex file systems, or even a simple journaled file system, we run into problems (like the reiserfs taking forever to load bug) because we don't have enough memory to do block mapping for the journal so it needs to scan it for every metadata read. (Yeah, really.) GRUB v2 has a cleaner design, is modular, and it has support for multiple architectures including i386, x86-64, and powerpc. Support for ia64 is said to be forthcoming. EFI support is already there. More importantly, it supports far more file systems and has native MD RAID and LVM support. Adding support for a new file system is much easier, cleaner, and has fewer limitations than with GRUB 0.97. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: * Supportability - upstream bug fixes and development community * Features - better fs support, native RAID and LVM support -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308497

[New: openFATE 312584] Connect calendar on news.o.o to connect upcoming events
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Feature added by: Jos Poortvliet (jospoortvliet) Feature #312584, revision 1 Title: Connect calendar on news.o.o to connect upcoming events openSUSE Infrastructure: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jos Poortvliet (jospoortvliet) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Currently the news team manages upcoming events. Not everyone sends in new events - team meetings are usually there but openSUSE @ a conference almost never makes it. Connect however has a nice, easy to use 'event' system which IS used by the ambassadors already. Having these show up in the calendar on news.o.o would be awesome! It would also be useful for team meetings, of course, as well as all other openSUSE related events. Use Case: On Augst 6-12 in Berlin the Desktop Summit takes place and a lot of openSUSE people will be there. Create a event on connect and let everyone click "I will attend". Now on news.o.o this event shows up in the calendar and anyone can see who will be there from the openSUSE team! Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: It lowers the efforts required to manage events by the news team. It also lowers the barrier for people to add events and makes sure more events show up. The calendar could also have a nice(r) view somewhere and attendance can show up on attendees' webpages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312584

[New: openFATE 311077] Themeing (SuSE-Elegant?)

Feature added by: Steffen Klein (sklein7) Feature #311077, revision 1 Title: Themeing (SuSE-Elegant?) openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Steffen Klein (sklein7) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hi What about changing the Default-Theme to SuSE-Elegant from Cristian Rodriguez? See http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/SuSE+Elegant?content=117251 + the there mentioned links for the look. At least providing a package for simple change of the various grub/boot/kdm/kde-screens would be neat. Regards, Steffen Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: It might be a matter of taste, but I think it looks way cooler and more modern than the default greenish look while still providing a SuSE-specific style. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311077
