[opensuse-factory] 10.3a4 software management :(
Yast-software management: Icon Mines is Novel customer registration. It then proceeds to go through the whole hog of loading the package database, while all the time there is no abort button. Icon Login Screen Setup is automatic online update config. Both their bubblehelp shows a random dictionary word too. Every yast module there exits with a window opening with title xmessage, the window containing a few straight vertical lines (on the left side when it's dragged bigger). Icon Boot gives add-on product media, it also loads the package database before doing anything useful, like showing an abort button. (During installation:) The yast boot loader module is still buggy. For root = /dev/md2 it suggests to put the boot loader on the root partition - I doubt that works. WHen I tick MBR, both MBR and root partition are ticked, so I think why not and finish out of that module. Being a suspicious burnt child by now, I enter back in - only root partition is ticked. I tick MBR, and untick root partition. This times yast gets the message.

[opensuse-factory] Ark Zipper
Hey SuSE; After about 3 hours of downloading that sorry Ark Zipper unzipped a file.iso (that is nice, to see whats in the file.iso). Guess what? It would not save it or do any useful thing with it (like burn to a CD). I even tried lying to it that the file.iso was to be tarred to the HD. It of course failed and up came a bug report. After filling and sending it the wonderful Ark Zipper disappeared. Gone! with no trace of my 3 hour download file.iso Granted it started with my mistake to not catch the unzip or save message coming from Firefox. Never the less, it needs a just save as function. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : [EMAIL PROTECTED] VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador http://counter.li.org #279316 Did you know?

[opensuse-factory] Yast Heartbeat config?
Hi, I've been looking around for configuring a HA service in SuSE and found a great article linked from openSUES services. there it is referred to Yast2 heartbeat. I can not find the module. Not on the default media nor in the build service? Is this not part of openSUSE, only a proprietary module for SLES? If so , that's a shame as I would like to try it out on my test machines prior to implementing at work. If it is SLES only then the referal from the openSUSE wiki article to the SLES documentation should be removed as it is not possible to follow as it is now.

Do you mean the TX4310? Do you know more about the status as the table leaves me a little confused. The table says that the driver for above Promise does not support NCQ, new EH, hotplug or suspend. But when I scrolled up, the page says that: Summary: No TCQ. Newer cards support NCQ. Full SATA control including hotplug and PM on all. What is confusing? The card supports these, but the driver does not. The comment you quoted about the sata_promise driver suggests that that TCQ will not be supported in the driver, because there is NCQ support in the cards. The notes after the table say this: No, feature is not present. The hardware can support this feature, but driver code does not yet exist to support it. Note the word yet. In other words, stay tuned -- the support should be there sometime in the future. If you absolutely /must/ have all these now, then look for something that can use the ahci driver, or get a Silicon Image SiI3124 (presumably, though, most if not all of those will be more expensive than you suggest your budget allows). -- Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo. -- HG Wells -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
