[yast-devel] YCC Icon Labels and Dialog Titles
by Karl Eichwalder 16 Jun '10

16 Jun '10

I admit this is a very minor issue, but I'm suffering from it since quite some time ;) The icon label texts and the title of the dialogs, that get started if you click the icon in YCC are often not the same. Often there are only minimal differences, though. I think they should always be the same, because then the product would look more polished. It would also ease the work of third parties such as documentation writers, software translators, and even support and helpdesk people. Examples (I did not check them all): Icon label / Dialog title =========================================================== Boot Loader ./. Boot Loader Settings Language ./. Languages Software Management ./. Software Manager Proxy ./. Proxy Configuration Firewall ./. Firewall Configuration: Start-Up Support Registration ./. Registration I'm pretty aware that there are different types of YaST modules... -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Slides from WebYaST LinuxTag 2010 presentation
by Ladislav Slezak 14 Jun '10

14 Jun '10

Hi all, the slides from my WebYaST presentation at LinuxTag 2010 event in Berlin are available at http://en.opensuse.org/WebYaST/LinuxTag2010 There are more slides than I actually displayed, the time for the presentation was short so I couldn't show all slides. And some slides are were not needed at all (the WebYaST screenshots were not necessary at the presentation as I showed WebYaST live in action). Feel free to reuse some parts if you do a WebYaST related presentation.

[yast-devel] Error messages in webyast
by Josef Reidinger 03 Jun '10

03 Jun '10

Hi, for documentation purpose I create list of error message and how solve it in webyast. Please check it and add if you know another ones. current list: * Host has blocked user test. It cannot login until Thu Jun 03 13:18:55 UTC 2010 ( brute force protection, wait until user is unblocked ) * You're not allowed to do this. If you have to do this action, please contact system administrator details Permission org.opensuse.yast.modules.yapi.users.usersget is not granted for user tux ( to grant permission use in command line polkit-auth --user <user> --action grant <perm from details> * Universal error, should be redefined. (more..) in control panel ( after update appear it should be also DBus error 1) - software management is blocked by some process so it cannot obtain patches. * Error occurred during ntp synchronization: Error for server ntp.suse.de: sntp: not enough valid responses received in time ( happen in time module after synchronize to NTP if ntp serverdoesn't return valid response (doesn't run ntp server or valid server which doesn't return enought answers) - solution try again, change ntp server or set time manually * Error occurred during ntp synchronization: Error for server pepovalest.suse.cz: sntp: unable to set up access to NTP server pepovalest.suse.cz ( cannot connect to NTP server - host is not reachable (network problem or server doesn't exist) * Collectd is out of sync. Status information can be expected at Wed Jun 16 13:40:42 2010. ( happen when time is moved backward - solution wait ) * Status not available. ( solution - check if collectd service run and start it ) Thanks josef -- Josef Reidinger YaST team maintainer of perl-Bootloader, YaST2-Repair, parts of webyast -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] HTML validation working again
by Martin Vidner 03 Jun '10

03 Jun '10

Hi, some time ago we disabled the HTML validation because it was killing JavaScript in the pages. Now I have fixed it. It is enabled in development mode if you have rubygem-tidy (nokogiri is no longer needed) Please fix even the trivial warnings so that important ones don't get lost among them. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=587463 -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu

[yast-devel] WebYaST - Roles management - New UI
by Martin Kudlvasr 02 Jun '10

02 Jun '10

Hi all, I've pushed a new ui for roles management. I think it works much better this way, but there is still room for improvement. Please test. Unresolved issues: - validation of inputs - change behaviour, if user does not have write permission - add a flag to each role, which indicates whether the role is displayed for permission/user assignment. This is to prevent running out of space in case there are too many roles. But there is no reason to have more than 4-5 roles. - shortcuts of permissions. Ideas are welcome. - toggle permission descriptions display Also have a look at the simple breadcrumbs in /roles/manage_roles (link to index made from a part of the headline). I would like if all webyast behaved this way (yes the link is different font size now). Please comment on this.
