[yast-devel] redesign of repo module UI
by Martin Schmidkunz 19 Feb '10

19 Feb '10

Hi! Please find an idea of repo module UI at: http://home.arcor.de/martin.schmidkunz/repos21.html The main differences to the current UI are: * compliance with basic concept of overviews as shown on gagarin.suse.de (OK, the edit string and delete functionality is missing, but I am sure you`ll figure it out :-)) * less information on screen * hints on priority * first implementation of enable/disable in YaST based on current survey results My usability questions are: * What do you think about the mock up? * What does "Keep downloaded packages" mean? * Does the target user group member know what the term "repository" is? I doubt that. * Does the target user group member know about "priorities"? Shouldn`t it be explained a little bit more? Tooltip? Looking forward to your comments!

[yast-devel] CSS: Which standard to use?
by Lukas Ocilka 19 Feb '10

19 Feb '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Do we have defined which standard/version should be used for webYaST? There are several of them, see http://www.w3.org/standards/techs/css#w3c_all IMO, we could use 'Cascading Style Sheets Level 2 Revision 1 (CSS 2.1)', but it must be 'defined' somehow.

[yast-devel] Webyast: Example how to test if request is correctly sent
by Josef Reidinger 19 Feb '10

19 Feb '10

Hi, yesterday during Prague testing session I talk about testing request to ensure, that correct data is sent, that model really try to get information from rest-service etc. Today I add these checks to time module test suite for functional tests. You can see it here http://gitorious.org/opensuse/yast-web-client/commit/6645c5ff1666a63d0d4bb2… If you have any question, feel free to ask 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

by Hai Shi 19 Feb '10

Hi, I am working on include WebYaST in the appliance. I followed the WebYaST vendor's guide: http://www.novell.com/documentation/webyast/book_webyast_vendor/?page=/docu… WebYaST initialization got stuck after accepting the license with error: Permission org.opensuse.yast.modules.yapi.administrator.read is not granted for user root The appliance is vmware image and has 2G memory. I used SUSE Sudio Online to build the appliance. Thanks, Hai

It's certainly helpful that y2-gtk now handles this situation gracefully and prevents the whole thing from crashing, but - `item cell and the least of all, the entire`item content should *never ever* become nil. If it does, it is a bug in YCP code - think about substituting an empty string if the value is undefined or eliminate nil's from the term list before passing it to UI. The bug (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567505) should now be reassigned to y2-firewall maintainer (with lower priority and/or severity) to solve the YCP part. fB. > =========================================================================== >=== --- branches/SuSE-Code-11-Branch/gtk/tests/Firewall_bnc567505.ycp > (added) +++ branches/SuSE-Code-11-Branch/gtk/tests/Firewall_bnc567505.ycp > Thu Feb 18 18:22:11 2010 @@ -0,0 +1,21 @@ > +// bug 567505 > +// GTK UI crashes when cell not set > + > +{ > + UI::OpenDialog( > + `VBox( > + `Table( > + `header("Name", "Price"), > + [ > + `item(`id(1), "Chili", 6), > + `item(`id(2), "Salami Baguette", nil), > + `item(nil), // crash > + `item(`id(4), "Steak Sandwich", 12) > + ] > + ), > + `PushButton("&OK") > + ) > + ); > + UI::UserInput(); > + UI::CloseDialog(); > +} -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] WebYaST: users and groups
by Michal Zugec 18 Feb '10

18 Feb '10

Hi webyast hackers! Today I submited groups selection / deselection implementation into git, see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580455 There are 3 issues I'd like to ask you for help: 1 - it doesn't work with Internet Explorer 8 (which is supported browser). Could anyone experienced find where the problem is? 2 - when one of the lists is too long it looks very bad. Any idea how to solve it? (scrollbars, align into more columns, ...) 3 - also some visible distinction between "all groups" and "selected groups" would be nice. I'll add labels there of course ;-) Thank you, Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

by Klaus Kaempf 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hi, http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Web/Development/Testing is now a tad shorter than before, moving example code to dedicated pages. New pages are http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Web/Development/Testing/D-Bus about writing tests including D-Bus services and http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Web/Development/Testing/PackageKit about tests involving PackageKit functionality.
