[openFate 305148] Automatic Compiling of Kernel Modules
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Feature added by: Andreas Jaeger <aj(a)novell.com> Feature #305148, revision 1, last change by Title: Automatic Compiling of Kernel Modules openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Andreas Jaeger <aj(a)novell.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The Standard Linux-Kernel provides a lot of hardware drivers/kernel modules. Nevertheless there are still devices not supported by the kernel. If a user compiles a kernel module by himself, he has to redo this step after each kernel update (if he is aware at all, that this step is needed). My idea was to install kernel-source, kernel-syms, gcc and make with each standard installation and to define a standard directory for the source code of kernel modules, e.g /usr/src/updates. When a Kernel Update is done, the system looks on boot in /usr/src/updates for directories and does there a 'make' and 'make install'. (build a kmp-package ?) If this could become a standard for other distributions (LSB) as well and corresponding init scripts would exist, third party kernel modules could be installed automagically after extracting code to /usr/src/update, so there would be some kind of standard for installing external kernel modules. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305148

[New: openFATE 309034] Complete move to PolicyKit 1

Feature added by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Feature #309034, revision 1 Title: Complete move to PolicyKit 1 openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Description: PoliycKit < 1 is old, non-maintained. For 11.3, we should make sure to move everything to the new polkit. Looking at the packages that still require PolicyKit-devel to build (ie, the old PolicyKit stack), we only have a few packages to fix. * cups-pk-helper: will be fixed when I released 0.1.0 upstream (soon) * hal: kay has a fixed package in home:kay_sievers:branches:Base:System * PolicyKit-gnome: only needed for GNOME integration of old PolicyKit * polkit-qt: no idea * ruby-polkit: no idea * smpppd: patch submitted (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580719) * yast2-dbus-server: no idea -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309034

[openFate 305493] Look at plymouth for splash during boot

Feature added by: Vincent Untz <vuntz(a)novell.com> Feature #305493, revision 1, last change by Title: Look at plymouth for splash during boot openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vincent Untz <vuntz(a)novell.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I wanted to open a fate feature about this when I first heard of plymouth, but reading http://fedoramagazine.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/interview-fedora-10s-better-… really makes me think we should go this way. Ray's comment starting with "Every flicker and mode change in the boot process takes away from the whole experience." is especially interesting. Is it okay to track the "don't show grub by default" here? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305493

[New: openFATE 311066] Autoconfiguration of Eucalyptus Cloud
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 24 Aug '12

Feature added by: J. Daniel Schmidt (jdsn) Feature #311066, revision 1 Title: Autoconfiguration of Eucalyptus Cloud Hackweek VI: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: J. Daniel Schmidt (jdsn) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Since end of 2010 the packages for Eucalyptus Cloud have been improved in order to work out of the box on SUSE systems. Nevertheless it requires a lot of manual configuration work to setup an entire cloud. The goal of this hackweek project is to autoconfigure as much as possible (avahi/zeroconf) and maybe provide a simple configuration tool to prompt for the remaining information and set it up. If time permits we try to provide SUSE Studio images for all Eucalyptus controllers. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311066

[openFATE 307461] SFLphone SIP Client
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 23 Aug '12

Feature added by: René Krell (renekrell) Feature #307461, revision 1 Title: SFLphone SIP Client Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: René Krell (renekrell) Description: it is a 'must' for a good distribution to include a few really working SIP clients for internet telephony. I suggest to introduce SFLphone (http://www.sflphone.org) into the distribution. It works well with the latest stable version 0.9.6 and provides a GNOME and a KDE/Qt4 client. What do you want more. Futhermore this fills the space in timeline for a missing KDE4 SIP client (kcall isn't really usable and Twinkle stucks on Qt3). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307461

[New: openFATE 310161] Make Bento and www.opensuse.org translatable via PO files
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Aug '12

Feature added by: Vojtech Zeisek (vojtaeus) Feature #310161, revision 1 Title: Make Bento and www.opensuse.org translatable via PO files openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vojtech Zeisek (vojtaeus) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: It is possible to translate software.opensuse.org via PO file software-opensuse-org.XX.po i LCN i SVN. But more sites are using Bento theme. I did not find any way how to translate navigation bar, content of boxes in panels and so on of Bento theme. I'm not sure if content of the navigation line is same on all webs, but it is important to have translated ALL occurrences of Bento theme and translation has to be consistent - same for every site. Second similar problem is translation of content of www.opensuse.org/XX/ For example for Czech version I see mix of Czech and English version. Sometimes someone send HTML file and say "Please, translate it and we will include it to www.o.o", but it is not good way how to manage it. There is, for example, no way how to translate news or add language specific news. I'm not sure if PO files are best for translations of the web and Bento, but it is common and IMHO good way how to manage it. So, please, make ASAP Bento and content of www.o.o translatable and accessible for language specific edits. And keep translations of Bento easily consistent on all sites. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: For localized, consistent and easily translatable openSUSE sites. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310161
