Hi,
I don't know where to ask about FATE, so I do it here.
I created one (my first) on behalf of somebody else who is not a member. I
set the priority to "neutral", but it came out as "important". I can't
change it. How do I do it?
Also, I put the last line in "cursive", and I got the error:
Error
There were errors:
* The description is not valid richtext: Error: No declaration for
element i at :0.
Do I open a bugzilla for this? What product?

Cheers,
Carlos E. R.

Hye,
KOffice 2.0 was released today. Unfortunately, it's only available (as
for the RC) for Factory Desktop (future KDE 4.3). It's a pitty that
one cannot install it on a stable KDE 4.0 or KDE 4.1 installation on
openSUSE 11.1
Is there any plan to make package for it? Where can I suggest it?
Cheers,
Jean

The openSUSE Project is happy to announce the second milestone release for
openSUSE 11.2 is ready for download[1]. This release includes Firefox 3.5
beta 4, KDE 4.3 beta 1, GNOME 2.26, and hundreds of other updates from
Milestone 1[2].
This is a **Milestone Release**, which means that it may not be suitable for
production systems. This is one in a series[3] of releases leading to the
official openSUSE 11.2 release, scheduled for November 2009.
Changes Since openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 1
=======================================
A lot has changed since the 11.1 M1 release, with many packages being updated
for 11.2. Some of the major changes in this release include:
* The distribution is built with GCC 4.4
* M2 uses the 2.6.30rc6 kernel
* Live CDs include The GIMP
* Default filesystem is Ext4
* Firefox 3.5 beta 4
* GNOME 2.26 packages and some preview packages from GNOME 2.27.1
* KDE 4.3 beta 1
* OpenOffice.org 3.1
* VirtualBox 2.2.2
See the openSUSE Wiki for additional changes[4] in 11.2 Milestone 2. You can
see the latest packages in Factory on DistroWatch[5], which tracks 203 major
packages.
Getting Milestone 2
===================
The latest development versions are available from
[http://software.opensuse.org/developer/][6]. Choose from x86 or x86-64
install DVDs or the KDE and GNOME Live CDs.
Testing
=======
Help us make openSUSE 11.2 the best release yet! Please run the release
through your usual routine, and let us know about any bugs or other issues
that you find. Remember that this is a milestone release, and is not suitable
for use on production systems.
Though many openSUSE users can and do use the Factory distribution and/or
testing releases for day-to-day work we want to stress that it’s entirely
possible that you will encounter serious bugs. See [openSUSE.org/Testing][7]
for more information on Testing. To follow the testing and development
process, we suggest that you subscribe to the openSUSE-Factory mailing list,
and join the #openSUSE-Factory channel on Freenode to discuss openSUSE
development.

Want to help spread the word about the openSUSE Project and encourage more
people to become part of the openSUSE Community? Are you ready to roll up your
sleeves and spread the word about the openSUSE Project? Do you want to teach
new users about Linux, speak about openSUSE at local events, help distribute
openSUSE media, and mentor new contributors to the openSUSE Project? Then
you're ready to become an openSUSE Ambassador!
What do Ambassadors Do?
=======================
Since this is a new program for openSUSE, the Ambassadors will help define the
role over time. But the general scope is clear: openSUSE Ambassadors help
introduce openSUSE (the distribution and the project) to new users and
contributors.
Ambassadors act as evangelists for the openSUSE Project and free and open
source software. They help to mentor new users and contributors by answering
questions on the mailing lists and in forums, by assisting users at
installfests, or by helping new contributors get started with the openSUSE
project.
openSUSE Ambassadors help to spread openSUSE DVDs at events, to local Linux
User Groups, schools, universities, and businesses that might benefit from
using openSUSE. Ambassadors staff booths at Linux events and answer questions
about openSUSE, and explain the benefits of the project and how to get started
with openSUSE.
Ambassadors promote the project and spread openSUSE by speaking at events, LUG
meetings, computer user groups, or any group that might be interested in
learning about the openSUSE Linux distribution and openSUSE Project.
Ambassadors help bring new contributors to the project and help them become
productive within the project.
In general, openSUSE Ambassadors are friendly openSUSE enthusiasts who help
introduce openSUSE to new users and contributors. Ambassadors make "first
contact" with new Linux users and help them get started and excited about
openSUSE and Linux. They spread excitement about the project and (of course)
have a lot of fun.
Signing Up
==========
If you'd like to sign up for the openSUSE Ambassador Program, see the "How do
I Join?" section on the openSUSE wiki[1]. If you have questions about the
Ambassador's program not answered on the wiki[2], feel free to bring them up
on the openSUSE Marketing mailing list[3].
You don't need approval to get started. Just follow the steps on the openSUSE
wiki and have a lot of fun!

Hello,
The other day one of my friends installed openSUSE 11.1/KDE 4.1.3 on his
laptop and afterwards he updated it. He had to download about 1.0 GB of
updates. And well, I thought that maybe we could have an update add-on DVD to
avoid big updates after fresh installs. This wouldn't be an openSUSE respin or
anything like that. People would download openSUSE as usual and then the
update add-on DVD et voilà!
I have done some test but weren't a complete success...
I made my own update add-on DVD by downloading the folders noarch, i586 and
i686 from the update repository, then I used YaST Add-On Creater tool to
create the DVD image and I tried it on a fresh install of openSUSE running on
VirtualBox. Well, it updated a few packages but not everything, and re-ran it
and nothing happened. No updates for me :-(
Any thoughts on this?
Greetings,
Javier

Hi Dean,
Have your patches been rejected? On what base?
Greetings, Stephan

Most of the guiding principles are just statements which go without saying
anyways. Summed up, they sound to me too much like a confession of faith. I
don't like the semi-religious tone, and I don't like when people tell me
directly how I should think, feel and behave. Hence I unchecked that little
box and hit "Save" :-)
