Feature added by: Christopher Kappe (Nox_Diesque) Feature #312510, revision 1 Title: tuxguitar Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Christopher Kappe (nox_diesque) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Since openSUSE 11.4 the program "tuxguitar" (http://tuxguitar.herac.com.ar) isn't available any more - not even in a "home" repository. I'd very much appreciate if it was to be found anywhere ready to install. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: It's such a popular software! If you don't want to buy the commercial "GuitarPro", then this is your choice. Many many guitar players and other musicians use it. It's available for Windows and Mac and to be honest: I don't know any Linux distribution besides suse 11.4 that doesn't have it in its repos (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312510

Feature added by: Melvin Jose (melvinjose) Feature #312791, revision 1 Title: Disk Formatting openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Melvin Jose (melvinjose) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Should have a format disk option in the right click menu. Will be helpful in case of Removable Drives. I would suggest that the sysinfo shown in My Computer currently be replaced with a filemanager that shows drives or filesystems like in windows(my computer). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312791

[New: openFATE 308378] Add simple selection of partitions in installation process

Feature added by: Mindaugas Baranauskas (embar-) Feature #308378, revision 1 Title: Add simple selection of partitions in installation process openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Mindaugas Baranauskas (embar-) Description: Need option for simple partitions asigning to mount points in installation. In openSUSE installation from DVD, the selection of partitions of system – isn't friendly to new user. We could add option to simple (and more grafical) management of partitions. Now in comparing this installation step in openSUSE, Fedora, Mandriva and Ubuntu: our openSUSE is most uncomfortable (a lot of mouse clicks)! Ubuntu 9.10 and Fedora 12 provides simpler management; And Mandriva 2010.0 surprized – is the clearest for beginig user. The Mandriva way: Press "Use existting partition" and "Next" See collumn of partitions and near the collumn of mount points, that can be changed by click :) That's all! The partition with mount point "/" – will be automaticaly formated. I expect, that for most users – this is the most desireble way. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308378

[New: openFATE 312756] Installing Opensuse Distro from source

Feature added by: Elmar Haag (Hans_Linux) Feature #312756, revision 1 Title: Installing Opensuse Distro from source openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Elmar Haag (hans_linux) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I would like to see a installation option in YAST that would allow me to install update a installed system from source. Maybe using the following steps: 1.) Do a normal install from the distribution DVD or a Network install and configure the system as required. 2.) Optionally download the sources for each library and application, compile with user specified complier flags, such as CFLAGS="-mtune=native -march=native -O3", MAKEOPTS="-j5" etc. 3.) Replace the original vanilla libraries from the distribution DVD and their updates with the complied applications. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The advantage would be a system optimised for the specific hardware on which it is installed resulting in best possible performance for application that are compiled with the same compiler optimisation flags. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312756

Feature added by: James Mason (bear454) Feature #309539, revision 1 Title: compiz grid plugin for kwin openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: James Mason (bear454) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Compiz 'grid' plugin provides tiled window manager-like behavior in addition to traditional moveable windows. Kwin would benefit from having an equivalent feauture, for those of us with OCD. See: http://wiki.compiz.org/Plugins/Grid http://suasol.wordpress.com/2008/06/28/new-tiling-plugin-for-compiz-fusion-… Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: (1) It's incredibly useful for quickly laying out non-overlapping windows, without moving over to a (limited) tiled WM. (2) feature parity with compiz. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309539

[New: openFATE 312211] system ICC color management
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Feature added by: Kai-Uwe Behrmann (bekun) Feature #312211, revision 1 Title: system ICC color management openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Kai-Uwe Behrmann (bekun) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Add a colour management system (CMS) for assigning ICC device profiles to device + driver configurations. Starting with the monitor profiles some colour management aware graphics applications can already use this feature. These cover Scribus, Krita, Gimp, Inkscape and some more. A open source CMS, which has extensive support for setting up ICC profiles for monitors is Oyranos. http://www.oyranos.org Dependencies: * OpenICC profile set * libXcm * libxml2 * X11 development libs * xcalib Optionally are some more dependencies for CUPS, patched SANE, libraw/exiv2, Qt. UIs exist as Kolor Manager (KDE control panel) and Synnefo (Qt). The library is very modular and can simply be removed if needed. Most packages (except Synnefo) exist in OBS already. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312211
