[opensuse-web] Bento icons swapped
by Rémy Marquis 28 Jun '10

28 Jun '10

Hi there, About the new tango icons used in the bento menu : It seems that the "Build Service" and "Bugs" icons have been swapped. Unless oBS is used to track bugs and Bugzilla to construct the distribution, I would recommend to interchange both of them :) R. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-web+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] Report a bug for development version download page
by Rajko M. 21 Jun '10

Today in the wiki forum DenverD noticed that we are missing links that will help testers to report bugs on: http://software.opensuse.org/developer/en That is probably one of the obvious places for links to bugzilla, but there is none.

[opensuse-web] Question for Using Links
by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 19 Jun '10

19 Jun '10

Hello Mates, for the Weekly News actually we're using for Links inside the actual Page: * [[#Rajko Matovic: Wiki: change postponed| Wiki change postponed]] or * [[#Announcements| Announcements]] If i export this and import this to news.opensuse.org, and i click on the Link, a Webbrowser opens and route me to the Wikisite. How can i modify the Links that it works normally as "inside" Link in news.opensuse.org? -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns open-slx GmbH openSUSE Community & Support Agent openSUSE Marketing Team Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com Web: http://www.open-slx.de (openSUSE Box Support German) Web: http://www.open-slx.com (openSUSE Box Support English)

I do login, but Novell websites needlessly expire logins prior to browser close, which like the captchas, and coupled with rude CSS[1], is HIGHLY annoying, and reason to avoid them except as last resort, and means harvesting information only, never contributions. [1] rude: e.g. on http://forums.opensuse.org/clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-19409e5f-00033.… is the following: body {...font: 10pt... Setting size to 10pt totally disregards (ignores) user preferences, taking into account none of user's: visual acuity DPI accuracy display size seating distance and angle display brightness & contrast ambient lighting other factors affecting suitability of specified size, all of which are presumably taken into account by the user in setting his browser's preference size(s), and respected by CSS that does not change the size on body and containers of primary content/paragraph text from 100% of the browser defaults.

[opensuse-web] Broken CSS since last redesign
by Felix Miata 14 Jun '10

14 Jun '10

On http://software.opensuse.org/search using text-only zoom (Firefox or SeaMonkey, any version set to text-only zoom) to make text readable, the product select list completely disappears. How can this get fixed? Do I need to file a bug on Bugzilla? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Whose idea was it to require captcha input in order to search for existing solutions? That kind of nonsense, coupled with https-only Bugzilla access for all purposes, and mousetype CSS text forum page styling (very very rude - see http://www.useit.com/alertbox/designmistakes.html ), is almost enough to cause a switch to *buntu. :-( -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
