[opensuse-web] Wiki update
by Christian Boltz 27 Sep '13

27 Sep '13

Hello, as some people might have seen in bugzilla comments [1], Janardhan is the new maintainer of the wiki servers. Welcome! Janardhan, I already have a task for you ;-) Currently *.opensuse.org runs MediaWiki 1.17.x, which is outdated and probably contains known security issues. https://github.com/openSUSE/wiki (branch "mw_upgrade_1.19") and the *stage.opensuse.org wikis already contain MediaWiki 1.19.3. Given that 1.19.3 was running on the staging server for months without problems, I'd say it's finally time to upgrade the production wikis. Note that in the meantime 1.19.7 is available (with additional fixes). Our final goal should be to upgrade to this version, but I'd prefer to deploy 1.19.3 first (to finally get 1.19.x without another delay) and afterwards do the update to the latest 1.19.x version. If you have questions or problems with the update, I'll happily help you - just ask ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] for example https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=808727#c44 -- > > > > Boah.

[opensuse-web] Requesting review of "SDB:Live USB stick" page
by Carlos E. R. 21 Sep '13

21 Sep '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have made some changes to <https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_USB_stick>, to try to cover the changes in USB stick creationg since 12.2. Could some one plese accept the changes, or improve them if appropriate? In the forums I have seen some people that try to apply instructions they read elsewhere to "make the usb bootable", and in doing so, the usb is rendered not bootable at all. You need none of those extra steps for openSUSE. Other people have found the instructions to "skip the isolinux step" confusing. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Both i386 and x86_64 produce 404, aka, no current HTTP way to get the installation kernels and initrds to HTTP install, while http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1-Beta1/ has no installation trees. Going directly to widehat.opensuse.org or gwdg.de via HTTP seems to work as expected. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-web] Old wiki
by Rajko 13 Sep '13

13 Sep '13

@ admin http://old-en.opensuse.org Login form does not work. Can you check why? I have to put site notice so that every page tells that is old wiki. Also, MediaWiki version is old. I guess that we want to keep it up to date as long as it is online. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] Wiki - Portal:Documentation - some articles
by Jan Papež (honyczek) 04 Sep '13

04 Sep '13

Hi, there are some (bad) links to (obsolete) articles on the https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Documentation. I'm preparing Czech version of the portal, but I'm in doubt what have to be kept and what not. Examples: - Migration to a new openSUSE version (latest 11.3) - Siga (what? latest 11.3) - Lessons for Lizards - Linux in a Nutshell -- Jan Papež (honyczek) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner(a)opensuse.org
