I've created a new openSUSE Goblin image and put it up on the
forgeftp.novell.com site:
http://forgeftp.novell.com/moblin/raw/
I'm currently running this on my laptop, and it looks good. If anyone
has any problems with it, please let me know.
Also, if anyone wants me to create new images based on the state of the
tree at any time, just ping me and I can do it. I don't know if it's
worth doing nightly builds just yet.
Hm, I need to add the M:F repo as pre-installed for zypper to make it
easier for people to update running systems, I'll work on that next...
thanks,
greg k-h

Hi Goblin Team,
I've heard from Rudi that you have added a couple of packages from Factory but
some of the changes were not merged back to factory.
This makes it rather complicated to integrate with factory and deliver a
Moblin UI on openSUSE since it might break other applications using the same
libraries.
Is there any chance to merge back your changes with factory to minimize the
differences?

Hello,
http://en.opensuse.org/Moblin/Build_Service describes how to create an
iso. But is there an iso file to download? I mean a recent one, not this
three months old: http://forgeftp.novell.com/moblin/iso/
Bye,

Hi Peter,
No it's not a local issue but is intentional. Remember Moblin is aimed at netbooks and there are no netbooks with optical drives. To use the .raw file you need to 'dd' it to a USB stick and then boot from that.
I would recommend using the .raw file found in KIWI-oem as it it will fit on a 2GB stick, and is designed as a recovery image. Be warned though that you will have no partitioning option, and you will loose all data when you install it.
Regards,
Andy

Is it a local problem, or this kiwi file really does not generate an iso
file? How can I use this "raw" file?

Moin all,
I'd like to ask you guys if, what and how we should provide Moblin to openSUSE
users?
We see Moblin gets high attention and with Goblin Andrew already based a
version of Moblin on openSUSE and it is appreciated by the users.
I heard the request to add Moblin to our major distribution (maybe considered
for openSUSE 11.3) and offer it with our "desktop selection" page. So what
would such an Moblin desktop add in space to the DVD? (as the DVD is already
pretty crowded)
Others are asking for a seperate Moblin image for each stable openSUSE
release.
So please let us know your opinion if and how to integrate Moblin with
openSUSE?
Best
Michael

Howdy!
I started working on some theming fixes but have a couple of questions
on how to get them incorporated into our builds. First an overview of
what I'm working on:
icons
=====
I'm filling the gaps in the icon theme. These changes go mostly directly
upstream to git.opensuse.org.
gtk+
====
The gtk theme has a number of issues I kinda-sorta-almost worked
around.
* Menus broken in OOo and Firefox. The menubar items aren't matched and
are almost invisible as both the background and foreground are light. As
I'm not aware of a way to special-case in those two applications I
worked around the issue by making the menus also dark so that the
foreground color of the menuitem is light and thus applied on the
menubar as well. Both of these apps still look ugly wrt hover/PRELIGHT
state of the toolbar buttons.
* Selection/tint color is SUSE-ish green instead of blue.
* There was a HUGE contrast between the toolbar/menus and regular app
widgets. These is no contrast between editable widgets and regular
backgrounds. Made the main bg color darker (#e2e2e2). This also makes
the tabs look less odd as the gradient continues onto the flat surface
below.
* Entry widgets were raised like buttons. It felt weird. Not sure if the
engine allows an inset style applied so I've at least flattened the
entries for now.
Cursor Theme
============
I would kinda suggest to go with DMZ AA as it allows to have the cursor
scaled up a bit. Might be handy for the tiny netbook screens. Style-wise
it's very close to the netbook theme. I'll see about replacing the wait
cursors to use the new moblin spinner.
WM Theme
========
* Using some colors from gtk rather than having them hardcoded.
* Mimic the close button from anjal/web browser behavior.
Wallpapers
==========
* Apart form the stripy one I have 3 more abstract wallpapers for
consideration as a default.
My question is how to best get all these changes into our builds? At the
moment I only have a local git repo, but I wonder if we have a special
place for suse specific moblin stuff?
cheers
