[opensuse-factory] Milestone 7 and missing python modules
by Sid Boyce 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

I have an application that ceases to work after Milestone 7 update. python-wxGTK-2.8.10.1-2.1.x86_64 installed. The following modules don't exist. Are there alternatives or is there another package needed - I haven't seen one that seems likely to supply them. Traceback (most recent call last): File "quisk.py", line 14, in <module> import wx, wx.html, wx.lib.buttons, wx.lib.stattext, wx.lib.colourdb ImportError: No module named wx Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

[opensuse-factory] Possible zypper glitch
by Peter Nikolic 09 Oct '09

09 Oct '09

Hi . Well just done a zypper up on my laptop running MS7 . it claims to have updated the kernel to 2.6.31-10.1 from 2.6.31-9 But i did not have -9 on the machine it was -8 on it . Toward the end of the zypper session it threw up a large amount of reports attempting to carry out actions on deleted files then asked for the process to be re started i just got the report nothing to do . This appears to not check what it is doing before it attempts to carry an action as exampled by the Kernel versions and the now failed sym links still booting 2.6.31-8 but installed 2.6.31-10.1 i have saved the zypper.log and /var/log/zypp/history if they are of use . Pete.

[opensuse-factory] Status: distribution
by Stephan Kulow 03 Oct '09

03 Oct '09

Hi, Milestone8 is not ready, there are some nasty issues. Most prominently the new kernel throwing OOPSes without acpi=off and KDE updates still don't work, so I won't release M8 in this state. How much delay this means I can't tell atm, but thursday is still possible.

[opensuse-factory] No updates of any description to 11.2 (MS6)?
by Basil Chupin 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

I've had 11.2 MS6 installed for several days now and have the .../factory/repo/oss and ..../non-oss, as well as the other Community repos, installed. Yet over this period there have been no updates to any installed files. I only use YaST (and Online Update applet) to check for new updates. Is it a natural thing that there have not been any updates or is it because I am using the 'normal' built-in YaST update facility and should be using something else?

[opensuse-factory] status of modprobe blacklist deprecated?
by David C. Rankin 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

Devs, For 11.2 is the use of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist deprecated in openSuSE? I ask because it has been in a couple of other distros with the 2.6.31-x kernel. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
