[New: openFATE 316789] Fundamental re-design how to set up the whole printing stuff

Feature added by: Johannes Meixner (jsmeix) Feature #316789, revision 1 Title: Fundamental re-design how to set up the whole printing stuff Requested by: Johannes Meixner (jsmeix) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The current YaST printer module provides different buttons (i.e. entry points) with different workflows for the different kind of printing setup actions: One via "Add", one via "Printing via Network", one via "Share Printers", and so on. This means the user must know in advance what to choose for his particular kind of printing setup. The software cannot guide the user towards the right entry point according to what the user wants to get in the end. To guide the user towards an actually right solution the initial dialog should show the list of currently available print queues plus one single button to "do whatever can be done" when something is not as expected (e.g. when something is missing) in that list. This means a fundamental re-design of the dialogs and workflows to set up the whole printing stuff is needed. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/316789

Feature added by: Michael Jones (toupeiro) Feature #308853, revision 1 Title: Add tab-to-complete and doubletab-to-query functionality to zypper openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Michael Jones (toupeiro) Description: Extend zyppers command line capabilities by enabling tab to complete against indexed repository packages and doubletab-to-query to essentialy perform a zypper se on the active installation command line. This would give zypper some functionality already present in debians aptitude package management system and would increase application installs and removals from the CLI. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308853

[New: openFATE 310913] Add YAST module to set up multiseat installations

Feature added by: Matthias Schünemann (wodenhof) Feature #310913, revision 1 Title: Add YAST module to set up multiseat installations openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Matthias Schünemann (wodenhof) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Set up a computer with a YAST module to run with multiple graphic cards, mice and keyboards for multiple users at once. The module would allow the administration of "working places". Currently one can reach sessions only on one screen via the function keys (F7 - F12). I suggest a module which lets the administrator bundle the devices into "seats", i.e. physically separated working places each with their own mouse, keyboard and display. Common use of DVD-reader/burner or card readers could be allowed, USB-sticks could e.g. get assigned hubs. Somebody (Chris Tyler) already started here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Multiseat (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Multiseat) CPU-power is abundant in modern machines, so one machine has enough for the easier tasks (browsing, text input etc.) of a whole family. I'd appreciate an easy set up with this feature. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Use of this power in any family's home would be a powerful demonstration of this OS's qualities. It would save money, particularly nice for families with tight budgets and in developing countries. When multi seat set-ups get more common the feature could be extended to virtual machines, i.e. one machine per seat. Those could be connected (via a virtual net / sockets ...) and run future multi-player games... -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310913

[New: openFATE 314709] Remove cylinder measurement in Yast Partitioner

Feature added by: Roman Bysh (Romanator) Feature #314709, revision 1 Title: Remove cylinder measurement in Yast Partitioner openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Roman Bysh (romanator) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I propose that openSUSE remove the use of "cylinder measurement" during the partitioning phase of installation. This is due to the fact that the newer drives use " LBA " and no longer require the outdated cylinder line up. This should be replaced with a slider that measures partitions in megabytes, gigabytes and in the near future terabytes. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314709

[New: openFATE 310100] YaST Software Manager - Installation after download
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 18 Dec '16

18 Dec '16

Feature added by: Muhammad Javaid (BrownieCat) Feature #310100, revision 1 Title: YaST Software Manager - Installation after download openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Muhammad Javaid (browniecat) Description: Once a package install/system update has begun in Software Manager it's not very easy to stop it. The 'Abort' button doesn't really seem to work and if you force kill the process, you likely end up with broken packages. It would be nice if first all the packages were downloaded, and then installed (like it is in Ubuntu), rather than the sequence of: Download Package 1, install package 1, download package 2, install package 2 and so on. That way the installation could be aborted safely during the downloading part with no fear of broken packages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310100
