[opensuse-project] opensuse-user not on gmane any more?

by Jim Henderson

I just noticed today that the gmane.linux.suse.opensuse.user group is missing from gmane.org - did the project request the list be removed from gmane? Just wondering if it was intentional or if something went wrong somewhere. Thanks, Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC 2014] OSEM Organizer Dashboard weekly update

by Christian Bruckmayer

Hello Community, my name is Chris and I am one of the Google Summer of Code Students involved in the Open Source Event Manager (OSEM). I am a student currently in the 3 year of the Bachelor of Science course with information systems and management major at the university of applied science in Nuremberg, Germany. I would like to take the opportunity to give you a short update of my work during the last week: A few days ago Henne migrated OSEM from Rails 3.2 to Rails 4.1. Because of that this week I have tried to fix bugs caused by this migration! In Rails 4, now PATCH replaces PUT for partial updates. Hence it was necessary to rewrite some url routes and update most of the html forms. Artem Chernikov gave me some advices and supported me during this task (thanks again!). Another task was to replace the deprecated Active Record methods.

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] [Cool Live Flash] Weekly report

by zsoltpeterbasak

Hello everyone! This week I spent my time with crafting my scripts and making the boot pretty. Pretty as in, work normally. Because so far I used a trick (rd.break, anyone?) to get things up. Taming Dracut is not the easiest thing, if you have no former experience doing so. But I managed to dig through all the modules scripts now (literally, all of them), and now I'm working on the correct way of injecting our system into it. A bulleted list with a somewhat accurate timeline: - Made a quick blog, so my mentor can follow my progress much easier. It's also good for me to backtrack my process a lot easier. - Fixed up the CLF system script, so it mounts up 'modules'. Basically squashfs files, which can contain software, or modules, for example. Currently it's used to update the image's modules. - Fixed up the scripts so they would chainload perfectly. The system gets mounted flawless after the user selects his image of choice. - Learned a ton about Dracut again. One such thing was it's conf and switches. How they behave. - Spent a ton of time with pivot_root, switch_root and the like (manual mount). Because pivot_root and switch_root would fail miserably at boot. Michal (my mentor) had a great idea. The default mount point and a clean exit booted up the new system. This took me to the right track. - 'exec' fooled me great at debugging. ;_; - Learned how to use expect, where to execute it. Not sure if we will need it in the final version without breaks... But expect is so powerful, it may come in handy later on. - Debugging, debugging, debugging. So CLF is at the stage where automagic is being worked on. Mount is done = booting, working system. I need to add syslinux to the equation and it's a thing people could already install on a pendrive. (Of course, we are far from the final goals, as there are so many things I could improve, and so many things I could implement, even if the basics are done. Which is not the case at the moment, so yeah.) Thanks to the quickblog, expect lenghtier reports from now on. (I did work a lot before as well, but I just summed things up real fast each week.)

[opensuse-project] upgrade oS 13.1

by Axel Braun

Good morning, not sure if this is the right group to ask, but is there a plan to upgrade the current openSUSE 13.1 to KDE 4.13.3 (or later)? I'm asking for the Official openSUSE build, not the respective KDE Project in Buildservice. Thanks Axel

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Git-Review Progress Update

by Xystushi

Hi All, Midterm evaluation is over. Thank you for the support. I continued adding bitbucket support into git-review. Currently, git-review is able to do the following operations on bitbucket repositories: 1. List all open pull requests 2. Show details (diff, comments, etc.) of single pull request 3. Open pull request in a browser window 4. Checkout a pull request’s changes to local repo The next step is to enable git-review to create, approve/decline, and merge pull requests. These will be the tasks for the following few weeks.

[opensuse-project] Re: Weekly Report [OSEM][Week 6] [GSoC]Event Splash Page for Visitors

by Gopesh Tulsyan

Hello Community, I happy to say that I passed my mid-term evaluations, thank you for the support and guidance so far. This week I integrated a theme inspired by onassis of http://www.blacktie.co(license http://www.blacktie.co/about-themes/). I also integrated FontAwesome(license http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/license/) and smoothscroll for better effects and animation for the splash.Although I am open any kind of addition to view level be it animations, assets, layouts.My mentor said that theme would be generally changed by the admins using OSEM, so I wrote only one css file for the time being, if time is left I can write one more theme for the splash. So I am left with three components(Press, Footer and Gallery) which I will finish and push next week and as per my proposal I would be working on Email Notifications. The email notifications needs attention because whenever a conference is updated there is no check which part is updated and the participants are not informed about the update which is very essential. This is the link to the folder Week 6, which contains some snaps with theme implemented. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8TQsfyoffN5cWNPaUU1OE1UWms&usp=sha… Happy Hacking :) Gopesh Tulsyan ROR Enthusiast, Final Year Information Technology, National Institute of Technology, Durgapur On Sat, Jun 21, 2014 at 4:41 PM, Gopesh Tulsyan <gopesh.7500(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello Community, > This week I completed the Location component with lodgings and added a > banner component to the splash.This banner component is in place of > carousel, it contains a background image, conference title, start-end > dates and description. > > I also added the checkboxes for each component in admin dashboard as > decided previous week, so that admins/organizer now can enable the > component on the splash when they think it's completed.On a different > note, we locked down on the carousel to be implemented as gallery in a > lightbox.This enabled me to use the carousel code that I have written > for taking photos for carousel.

[opensuse-project] [GSoC2014]TSP Application Weekly Update

by karthik senthil

Hello everyone, This week, my work so far was completely reviewed and merged to a separate branch in the main repository on GitHub. Further, more state machines have been added to the app(Shipments). I have designed the implementation method to automate the state machines and discussed about the same with my mentor.During this discussion some shortcomings of the current design were spotted and fixes for them were considered. Upon my mentor's suggestions, I will start implementing this method and also test it at the same time with the current existing state machines in the app. My progress can be tracked here :https://github.com/karthiksenthil/travel-support-program/tree/gsoc2014 Thank You Karthik.S 2nd Year,Information Technology NITK,Surathkal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project][MATE][GSoC 2014]weekly report: ePub support in Atril

by avishkar gupta

hi all, This is my report for the week of May,26 to May,31 2014.I'm working on adding ePub support in Atril,the MATE document-viewer. This week i wrote the code that would be used to extract and parse the ePub archive. I am almost done with the helper functions, and now i am trying to get everything to build as a part of Atril compilation, which requires linking the Atril document and view librarieswith my backend. I am currently on top of that and hope to get a successful build by Tuesday. Here is the commit history for the week: 415b008....06 7f33c34....5d 070a26e....77 If you'd like to see these please see the tree. Here is the tree,if you would like to monitor my dev brach(which i hope you do, it's always nice to have random followers!): https://github.com/rootAvish/atril/tree/epub -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [gsoc] Weekly status report - MATE gstreamer project

by Michal Ratajsky

Hi, this is my ninth weekly status report for my GSoc project. I don't have a lot of exciting news this week. As planned I have started working on porting the MATE volume control application to my new mixer library and just as expected it's still too early to have a working version. I believe I'll have a working version by the end of the next week. Along with that I have commited a couple of fixes to my library. Next week I'm going to continue working on porting the app and there will also be some updates to the library which will be required for the app to work.
