Hi All,
Just want to let you know that we are here in Indonesian OpenSUSE

We launched this feature after short discussion with OpenSUSE fans on
the monthly meeting last month. With this feature, we currently offer
7 feature to support our goal : increasing OpenSUSE user in Indonesia
at the end of 2008. The feature we currently offer are : Mailing List,
Support Forum, Tutorial, Planet Aggregator, Online Support, Free mail

using our mother language, Bahasa Indonesia.
We hope we can helped and increasing more OpenSUSE user.

inconvenience with our language.

Hello,
string freeze for openSUSE 11.0 is coming up in two week so it's again rather
late to decide how we want the distribution point back to the project sites.
- Shall we keep the setup with two different desktop icons (one starting the
first-time openSUSE greeter and one pointing to http://help.opensuse.org)?
- What greeter text? Shall it directly link to http://forums.opensuse.org?
- Shall browser bookmarks have forums.o.o, shop.o.o and buildservice.o.o?
- Is www.opensuse.org the best browser start page or do we want to have
something like other distros which include some web search etc.?
are some of the questions which come to my mind.
Bye,
Steve

Hi, all
I'm a student currently proposing for an opensuse gsoc project
(http://en.opensuse.org/Summer_of_Code_2008#enable_ext4_file_system_as_boot_…)
This project aims at enabling ext4 file system as grub legacy boot
partition for opensuse and others.
I downloaded the grub source package from
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/src-oss/suse/src/grub-0…
After decompressing it, I found eventually several patches for old
grub-0.93, and grub-0.95 etc.
Surprisingly, even some grub-0.97 patches don't work well, such as
disk-by-ID:
$cat disk-by-ID
diff -Burbp grub-0.97.orig/lib/device.c grub-0.97/lib/device.c
--- grub-0.97.orig/lib/device.c 2007-03-16 14:15:52.000000000 +0100
+++ grub-0.97/lib/device.c 2007-03-16 17:19:59.000000000 +0100
@@ -869,7 +869,11 @@ write_to_partition (char **map, int driv
len = strlen(dev);
pnum = ((partition >> 16) & 0xFF);
- if (isdigit(dev[len-1]))
+ if (strncmp (dev, "/dev/disk/by-id/", 16) == 0)
+ {
+ sprintf (dev + len, "-part%d", pnum + 1);
+ }
+ else if (isdigit(dev[len-1]))
{
/* It is obviously some RAID disk: "/dev/<dsk>/c0d0" . "p1" */
sprintf (dev + len, "p%d", pnum + 1);
$patch -p0 < disk-by-ID
patching file grub-0.97/lib/device.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 869.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file grub-0.97/lib/device.c.rej
My questions are: are these old patches applicable to grub-0.97? Does
grub running in opensuse10.3 really uses these patches, or just some of
them?
I know that grub legacy is no longer under development, but since I'm
working on an opensuse project, I need to consult the opensuse community
to make sure that my ext4 patch cooperates with other patches when it
comes out.
Thanks,
Bergwolf

Everyone,
can we please get back to the thread topic:
Does 'end of life' (resp. end of support) for a distribution have to
result in its removal from the openSUSE build service ?
>From the feedback on opensuse-buildservice, I have the impression that
most participant want a 'freeze' and not a 'remove'.
Comments ?
Klaus

First this post is directed to project list because indexing openSUSE wiki is
very important for the health of a openSUSE project and I would like to have
attention from the most active members of the openSUSE project.
Wiki is for the largest number of openSUSE users first source of information,
before they go to the forums, mail lists and IRC.
There was few attempts to organize indexing of openSUSE wiki, but due to
current size of the wiki, indexing project is, for relative small wiki team
and lack of experience in development of ways to access information, to big
task.
Part of the problem is that wiki was initially setup as 'all in one' source of
information, translation tool, development, help etc, ie. collaboration
platform for very diverse activities, where anybody can, and is encouraged to
contribute. That brought a large diversity of topics and number of articles,
which is good, but sometimes they are just sitting there unused, and that is
the problem.
Searching with built in search, or Google for the opensuse.org domain gives
some help in this, but as any search it is not ideal for everybody, as
precondition for successful search is that person knows something about
topic. This leaves users that are making first steps in openSUSE and Linux
out, and that is the category that we would like to have as easy entrance as
possible.
Someone mentioned in one of project meetings that we need information
architect. It is very much truth, but I have no idea where to look for
person that has experience and time to devote to the openSUSE wiki, or better
to say, development of openSUSE information system.

Hi,
there's a vivid discussion on opensuse-buildservice about the
consequenses of "end of life" announcements to the buildservice.
See
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-buildservice/2008-04/msg00185.html
The question was raised if it is possible to keep older distributions
available for download (e.g. unsupported.opensuse.org) and building.
Adrian pointed to opensuse-project to get this question answered.
