[opensuse-project] KDE-LIVE-CD, very bad impressions
by Daniele 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

HI guys, after first look I'm very disappointed about live-cd but before start to reporting bug and features request I'd like to hear your opinions. 1) sound doens't work. On live cd it simple should work. No luck with yast or alsaconf. In Yast I can hear test sound but under Kde no mixer, no device, no sound. This on well supported hardware.. 2) partitions on hd should be showed somewhere (sysinfo, /media). For newbye, finding/mounting partitions it's no so easy.. 3) one of my pc is a IBN NetVista that runs 10.3 fine but with live-cd, video card/monitor are non well configured and system hangs for some ATA errors.. 4) I'm wrong or software on live-cd is in the same version of GM ? If so, I don't uderstand why. Releasing live-cd one month after GM without bugfix it's a crazy thing :) Live-cd it's becoming the most used media but opensuse live cd give a very bad impression to all project... I'll do more/better test in next days and I'll report all bugs.. Daniele. P.S. Sorry for my bad english, I hope it's understandable... -- *** Linux user # 198661 ---_ ICQ 33500725 *** *** Home http://www.kailed.net *** *** Powered by openSUSE *** --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] FOSDEM 2008
by Martin Lasarsch 26 Nov '07

26 Nov '07

Hi We started last week the FOSDEM planing, so far we have some ideas about the talks and i try to get some money (i will keep you posted ...). We thought about topics which reflect successfull projects in openSUSE or areas where a lot of work going on right now. We just thought what would be interesting for the community. Everybody agreed that it would be nice to have more community talks, from the community, to the community ... here are some ideas: - Education - compiz fusion - openSUSE community (presentation of a local user group community member) - 1-Click - packman - the "other" site ... :-) (not limited to one site ...) - openSUSE board - KDE4 (maybe a combined talk with KDE members) - GNOME (for example accessibility) - php - openSUSE 11.0 - ATI driver - LTSP - product creator/KIWI - Laptop tracks This is not a schedule, nor is it fixed. Please add something if you have other ideas. We had this year 17 talks, should be in the same range ... If someone is interested to make a talk, this is the right thread for it. Booth: I guess it was quite good this year imho, i hope i can get again the large counters from Novell. Feel free to comment ... -- with kind regards, Martin Lasarsch, Core Services SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) martin.lasarsch(a)suse.de - http://www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Application blacklist
by Josef Assad 26 Nov '07

26 Nov '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was wondering how this list was determined: http://en.opensuse.org/Application_Black_List Would it make sense to have some form of community process whereby applications are transparently evaluated? I understand that in all likelihood it is a SUSE/Novell consideration, which in itself is a good reason. But openSUSE is a global community, so it would probably help to be more clear about this. To take an example, as the page currently stands I'm guessing it reflects the various legal constraints in Germany and the US. Since that isn't called out, one could assume it meant software which is illegal anywhere. In Egypt, there's legislation on the books which imposes a blanket encryption ban (never mind whether it's applied or not), and that could certainly have changed the length of the Application Blacklist somewhat. :) JA - -- http://www.DonAssad.com jabber ID: josef.assad(a)gmail.com Please consider the environment; do you really need to print out this e-mail? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHSn7gFcf72sjD2+QRApy2AJ9D+ls6Usl9kD9a9nVWZhZlMdu+cQCfaurM hmO0zeJG1QvwrNQvuplOFKo= =i0OS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] rpm - advanced search
by Roberto Mannai 11 Nov '07

11 Nov '07

Hi all Is there (or will be) a search feature in http://software.opensuse.org/search/ which permits a search-by-filename? Something like one in http://rpm.pbone.net/. If I am not wrong, now you can only search by rpm package name. Regards Roberto -- Are you bored of making software? Play it!
