Bernhard,
I noticed today that your tests are failing on the latest set of NET install
CDs. When I downloaded build 0899 for i586 and installed it on a VirtualBox VM,
everything was OK. I'm not sure why it is failing under KVM.

After a working Milestone 3 x86_64, my Gnome desktop was broken with
'zypper (d)up' to Factory since a week ago. No login menu, just a green
filled background, neither autologin worked.
Tried also Update Installations with Build 0854, 0908 and 0909 NET
installations from DVD without change.
At last I did a New installation with Build 0909 to-day, and finally
Gnome desktop works again.
Has other than me noticed these two details?
1. During 11.3 Gnome 2.30 the user name field on the login menu used to
be selected (inverse video). This made it practical simple to bring up
the password field directly just by typing 'Enter' before the password.
Now during 11.4 Gnome 2.32 milestones the login menu's user field is not
selected (inactive light grey), so that one has to use a mouse click
first to get further to the password field.
2. After login to Gnome 2.32 now in Build 0909, a message pop up: 'Enter
password to unclock your login keyring' (did not unlock during login)

The next Testing Core Team IRC meeting to discuss 11.4 Milestone 4 will be held
December 6 at 1800 UTC.
The release of openSUSE 11.4 M4 has been delayed until Monday, November 29. The
results of the automated testing implemented by Team member Bernhard Wiedermann
indicated that Build 0906, which was a potential M4 candidate, was not suitable,
but that Build 0908 would install without errors. Congratulations to Bernhard
for his efforts. Trying to test a version that will not install is hardly the
best way to encourage testing.
I have just begun to test M4 myself. Thus far, the NET install CD was used to
upgrade from M3, and to build new installations on both real and virtual
machines. My special interest is wireless networking - no serious problems found
yet.
I hope the readers will test this version, and post bugs on the Novell Bugzilla.

Hi Factory-lovers :-)
Today I have installed openSUSE Factory from the KDE Live CD (build 890).
Regarding packages, I ended up with -de and -ru language packages although I
didn't choose any of those and with kdepim in English only.
Greetings,

Hi testers,
This morning after a zypper up, I've got the kernel 2.6.37-rc2 on my factory install.
I found 3 majors troubles
first I loose the fn+F8 key function ( which give me cloning screen ) which as work from years
(I hit it on kdm, and the second screen become a clone of the primary lappy one)
Otherwise
running with nvidia 260.19.21 xorg & kwin use constantly ~26% of cpu.
I don't have this under 2.6.26-18 : most of the time 5% to 18%
(same X same programs, same effects)
And the last one trying to rebuild vmware module give a segfault
Nov 20 14:09:11 localhost kernel: [ 811.988428] vmware-modconfi[11423]: segfault at 7f750df24050 ip 00007f74ee16f118 sp
00007ffffa5771f8 error 4 in libc-2.11.2.so[7f74ee05b000+164000]
Nov 20 14:09:37 localhost kernel: [ 838.270217] vmware-modconfi[11646]: segfault at 7fe3299ff050 ip 00007fe309c4a118 sp
00007fff66cc5818 error 4 in libc-2.11.2.so[7fe309b36000+164000]
And at least but every time on the factory at start :
2.6.37
Nov 20 13:56:03 localhost kernel: [ 23.740767] hald-probe-inpu[1638]: segfault at 7ff8 ip 00007fe8901d1139 sp 00007fff548316b0
error 4 in libc-2.11.2.so[7fe890159000+164000]
2.6.36
Nov 20 15:31:10 localhost kernel: [ 39.102197] hald-probe-inpu[1798]: segfault at 7ff8 ip 00007f1d09945139 sp 00007fff966a2430
error 4 in libc-2.11.2.so[7f1d098cd000+164000]
Last one ( of those damned non free but usefull software )
When I try to close acroread 9.4.1 from non-oss, it simply use 100% cpu and stay here until kill -9
last lines of an strace reveal that
open("/usr/lib/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/GlobalPrefs/reader_prefs", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0600) = 15
stat64("/usr/lib/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/GlobalPrefs/reader_prefs", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
getuid32() = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_CUR) = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_END) = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_SET) = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_CUR) = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_END) = 0
_llseek(15, 0, [0], SEEK_SET) = 0
write(15, "<</FeatureLockdown [/c <<\t/Defau"..., 2509) = 2509
close(15) = 0
munmap(0xf3a32000, 7461572) = 0
starting it under root give same thing + those line
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib/suse-do-not-grab-server.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be
preloaded: ignored.

Hi
there is this problem, that Factory is sometimes broken
but it would be nice if people had a safer way to test new software even between milestone-releases (which are manual factory-snaphots).
via
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Tools
I found something I wanted to have for openSUSE, too:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Israwhidebroken.com_Proposal
I did
s/rawhide/Factory/
s/chewtoy/Factory-tested/
and seeded this onto
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Factory-tested_Proposal
It is about creating a snapshot of Factory whenever it passes all basic automated tests (aka critical path) - preferably with minimal human intervention (aka hard work) needed.
I have much of the automated testing done, so what is missing is a way to trigger+do the snapshotting.
Ciao
Bernhard M.

Hi all,
I'm close to a needed workstation hardware upgrade and consider the
following two, new interesting budget motherboards from Asus. IMO this
list contains some noticeable key features:
Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3:
AM3/X3, ATI Radeon HD 4250, SATA-600 (RAID)/eSATA-port, HDMI, Firewire
Asus M4A89GTD PRO/USB3:
AM3/X3, ATI Radeon HD 4290, SATA-600 (RAID)/eSATA-port, HDMI, Firewire
The basic SUSE Linux compatibility looks ok according to one comment
found in this post
http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/hardware/437090-asus-mothe…
What concern me is if the Linux drivers for the ATI graphics really are
so bad that full HD video at 1920x1080p hardly is possible to decode and
playback on the integrated 4250/4290?
Any comments/experiences to this?

A Testing Core Team IRC meeting to discuss 11.4 Milestone 3 was held November 15.
We first discussed the latest developments in automated testing of installation.
If those system builds that will not install are detected early, then users will
be spared the effort wasted in downloading a product that will not run. The goal
is to minimize user frustration, and maximize user time spent in tests that
cannot be done automatically. For example, the virtual machines used in the
automatic testing have very limited hardware, thus a lot of drivers are not tested.
Team member Bernhard Wiedemann, who developed these testing procedures, has been
granted access to a server at openSUSE for this purpose. For anyone interested
in the details of how the tests function, please see
https://lwn.net/Articles/414413/. To see the squashing of bugs over time, see
http://openqa.opensuse.org/cgi-bin/currentresults. The links in the left-hand
columns show details of the testing. To see visually what Bernhard is testing,
look at the movie.
The meeting also discussed the handling of Bugzilla reports. The plan is to
automate the scanning of the list to find those bugs that affect the pending
release so that none of bugs found in testing are allowed to persist in the
released version. Further discussion of bug handling will be reported here.

Does the packagemanager (yast, zypper) save a config file somewhere that
contains the repository list that can be edited as a text file?

On one of two machines with 11.4 M3 x86_64 installed (now upgraded to
Factory) with Gnome 2.32, I managed to get a GDM login menu that doesn't
display the password field, just my user name. As a workaround to start
I have edited sysconfig/displaymanager to allow autologin.
Can this be solved without trying a new installation, i.e editing
displaymanager somewhere?
