I updated to firefox 3.6.13 (opensuse version) in the meantime and also installed the mentioned xine browser plugin (1.0.2-2.pm.2.2) from packman repo. Unfortunately it can't play the video on my system. I disabled every plugin except of xine, in Tools>add-ons>plugins, and the video window now gives a message saying "The plugin for this content has been disabled. Click here to manage you plugins." I also tried to set plugins in Tools>Manage content plugins, but I could not since the window's response was very slow, I could not select any of the mime types, and cpu use raised to 92% when the window was open.

[opensuse] white shadow
by xPol 26 Dec '10

26 Dec '10

When rising a konsole or okular window to foreground, often a white shadow, covering the window content, is shown on the left side. Here enclosed is a picture. The same also happens at each new page, when browsing a pdf document with okular. I am using kde 4.4.4 opensuse 11.3 Any ideas to fix that annoying behaviour? thank you ----p

[opensuse] Question about Free Software policies within the openSUSE Project
by Kostas Boukouvalas 24 Dec '10

24 Dec '10

What are the Free Software policies inside the openSUSE project? The only thing FSF notices that separates openSUSE Project from the Emacs Church is "openSUSE offers its users access to a repository of nonfree software" [1]. Could this change? I mean, could this repository be ousted from openSUSE but still being accessible by openSUSE users if they want to? Instructions could be given in forums outside the wiki or the official openSUSE community sites. Something like packman but with no help from the community. It would also be a chance for business for someone that wants also to help freedom but on the other hand to help a user in the extreme case that some hardware cannot work with Free Software and she wants it to work "the very moment". Not mention the high importance of having the analytical list of non-free software that may is needed in openSUSE to run efficiently. This would help a lot, programmers, to create new free software and have a roadmap to where they are going. Also, what's the state of the Linux kernel that openSUSE uses? Recently Debian, changed that and will put on its version 6.0 "Squeeze" a completely free Linux Kernel, blobs not included [2]. Could openSUSE do the same thing? It is of important value that among the major distributions on [1] the openSUSE and SUSE distributions are the least blamed. I don't think that at FSF didn't searched about openSUSE and searched to find about all others. I think that we are indeed more close to Free Software Guidelines than anyone else in the mainstream GNU/Linux distributions river. It would worth a lot to make this little step and touch (and maybe open) the door of the FSF.

[opensuse] Searching for 10.2 repos
by Roger Oberholtzer 24 Dec '10

24 Dec '10

I know that opensuse no longer support 10.3. But I recall reading here that there are places that keep copies of these repos longer. But I do not seem to find them today. Anyone have a pointer? This will only be useful if I am correct in the following: I have a 10.3 system that I want to update to 11.2. IIRC, 'dup' was added to zypper after the original 10.3 release. But it was available as an update. If I install the zypper update for 10.3, I am hoping I can update the 10.3 system to be 11.2. I will of course be very careful. But is the general idea accurate? I seem to recall that 10.3 was one of the first releases that could be updated this way. Is it really possible to go from 10.3 to, say, 11.2, without going to the other releases in between?

I recall that there was something about the compression used by rpm that had to be updated first. Then zypper. Then the system. Maybe the zypper/rpm could come from 11.0. I wasn't paying too close attention at the time, as I did not think I would do that. No one told me there was going to be a quiz. Maybe I will see how far I get with an autoyast.xml generated for the 10.3 system and used to install 11.2. I seem to be feeling adventurous today. I have the Christmas break to recover if I break something. The system is not critical. It is like systems our customers have and we are thinking of the best/easiest way they can move to 11.2.
