[opensuse] Repositories question
Hi, When Linux is mentioned the word, and possibly its biggest benefit, repositories, also comes into play. I understand a repository as a software update store, where, once updates have been released and tested, are placed i.e. similar to TUCOWS for the other operating system. It is my understanding that some of the repositories carry all the updates to all the packages, whilst some only keep security fixes and critical updates. I only use rpm updates that Yast picks up as it enables the resolution of package dependencies in a GUI format before the update tries to take place. I am currently using the skynet.be mirror for updates and recently saw a post about source repositories. ftp://ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2 http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.suse.com/suse/update/10.2/ http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.opensuse.org/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/non-oss/ http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.opensuse.org/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/ Two of the repositories that were of interest mentioned were: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/src-oss/suse http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/src-non-oss/suse How do these repositories differ from Skynet ones? Are the less/more complete than the one I am currently using or are the skynet ones merely a mirror? Should I add the new mentioned repos? Would they conflict with the current ones as I see the folder structure is almost identical? When I browse to the location I see a whole stack of rpms, but I assume these are src rpms not package rpms and that Yast would not be able to install an update to an rpm package from a rpm src package. Help required in understanding the role of repos and how to use them/determine if one is better than another. What if a repo isn't available, due to network problems, can another repo be added and used as a fallback repo?

[opensuse] SUSE SWAMP
Anybody tried it?, is it actually being used on the Opensuse project?. Looks interesting Maybe it can replace workflow apps on Domino/Notes... Webpage: http://swamp.sourceforge.net/ SWAMP - The Workflow Platform SWAMP is a workflow processing platform. Workflows are processes with many people involved in many working steps. In a real world scenario these workflows are highly dynamic, but still many systems try to hardcode the business logic. That leads to raising efforts to adapt the system. Here is where SWAMP steps in: The workflow is designed in a XML based meta language in one file which is read by SWAMP. Workflows can be built from different workflow 'patterns' like simple actions, decisions, selections, loops, but also custom code and external events if required. SWAMP builds a HTML GUI from the workflow definition file that guides different users through the whole process, sends notifications if required, assembles overview pages over all running processes and much more. A SOAP interface can be used to integrate external systems into the workflow. These are SWAMPs main Features: * Support of many different workflow patterns * Flexibility in workflow design: A workflow can be specified in a single XML file * Workflow evolution: Workflows can be developed while in operation (versioning) * Ease of use: clear and straightforward XML based workflow definition language, no coding skills needed * Workflows can attach data and files * Automatic web-GUI generation for handling individual tasks and administrating workflows * Running on Linux + Windows with OS-independant tools: Java, Tomcat, MySQL * MySQL + LDAP authentication possible * User and Role management, workflows/tasks can be restricted * Mail notification system included * Unlimited amount of different workflow-types on one server * Scheduler to control time-critical workflow paths * SOAP interface allows interaction with external systems * Openness: Custom code allows unlimited functionality, event- and data gateways * Customizeable overview lists with filters -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse] cardbus PCI adaptor

But it does have / and /home on it, so what would be the best way to go about doing this? I think I have an IDE slot to plug in the new drive, or at least I could temporarily replace my CD or something. I assume I would want to use dd or something? I came across 'Clonezilla' the other day, a wonderful tool. It lets you make clones of drives in mere minutes, copying only the used parts. It works with all the usual Linux filesystems, plus NTFS. You can also make images on servers running SSH, or on a dedicated Image drive, for archive purposes. There is a live cd with GParted and Clonezilla together, just the combo you need when a drive treatens to fail. Highly recommended. Funny - I just noticed Clonezilla today and am in the processing of trying it out. I tried gparted over the weekend, with its copying facility. The partition stuff worked okay, but the copying seemed flaky. I'm going to try Clonezilla tonight. My SMART stopped complaining for a while, but it is back into its whining mode. It probably has to do with the heat in my office.

[opensuse] Linux-friendly PCMCIA Wireless Card?

If so, I'd love to try one, because up to now, the only way I can get network access with those machines is to plug 'em in with a cable.

On Monday 06 August 2007 01:30:08 am Hylton Conacher (ZR1HPC) wrote: Hi, When Linux is mentioned the word, and possibly its biggest benefit, repositories, also comes into play. I understand a repository as a software update store, where, once updates have been released and tested, are placed i.e. similar to TUCOWS for the other operating system. It is my understanding that some of the repositories carry all the updates to all the packages, whilst some only keep security fixes and critical updates. I only use rpm updates that Yast picks up as it enables the resolution of package dependencies in a GUI format before the update tries to take place. I am currently using the skynet.be mirror for updates and recently saw a post about source repositories. ftp://ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.2 http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.suse.com/suse/update/10.2/ I would use one update repository and better is to use mirror on skynet.be. http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.opensuse.org/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/n on-oss/ http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/ftp.opensuse.org/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/o ss/ Two of the repositories that were of interest mentioned were: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/src-oss/suse http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/src-non-oss/suse How do these repositories differ from Skynet ones? Are the less/more complete than the one I am currently using or are the skynet ones merely a mirror? The /repo/non-oss/ and /repo/oss/ are binaries that you can run after installation, while /repo/src-non-oss/ and /repo/src-oss/ are source code packaged in rpm that has to be compiled first. Should I add the new mentioned repos? No need for now. In the moment source code packages are not even presented in the YaST, so including repositories will change nothing. YaST will ignore them. Would they conflict with the current ones as I see the folder structure is almost identical? No. When I browse to the location I see a whole stack of rpms, but I assume these are src rpms not package rpms and that Yast would not be able to install an update to an rpm package from a rpm src package. See above. Help required in understanding the role of repos and how to use them/determine if one is better than another. Mirrors are usually better than original site as they mostly contain all packages for PC computers (i386 in directory tree) and mostly they are faster than original due to lesser load. What if a repo isn't available, due to network problems, can another repo be added and used as a fallback repo? Yes, but search mirrors on htpp://en.opensuse.org there is plenty of explanations. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse-packaging] Package RDAC kernel module

I'm packaging the RDAC (http://www.lsi.com/rdac/ds4000.html) module for

make: *** [mppLnx_Spinlock_Size] Error 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.88521 (%build)
This seems to be related to an include in some of the source files.
On SLES 10/OpenSUSE 10.2 the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build points to
/usr/src/linux-`uname -r`-obj/arch/flavour but this seems to be wrong
according to message in version.h .
If I change this symlink to /usr/src/linux-`uname -`/include (which is
in the kernel-src package) the compile works.
What is the correct way to solve this more permanent? Submit a patch
upstream? Fix the package ? ?
Thx in advance
Kind regards,
Leo

[opensuse-wiki] Using the Download page for Betas
Hi guys, Since we have such a beautiful download page now I think it would really be a shame if we didn't use it for our alphas (now gone though) and betas (especially beta1, which is this week, and it would really help in contributing to making Beta1 a really big splash). Since the template is already there, most of the work is just link copy/pasting. Since the source is now available[0] I was going to try to create the beta download page myself, but unfortunately I'm not familiar with Ruby on Rails at all so I've only been able to do the link edits (probably most of the work though, I hope). Anyway, here's a patch.[1] Some info: * The links are for Alpha7 for purposes of testing the links. For beta1 you could just s/Alpha7/Beta1/ and s/Alpha6/Alpha7/ (for the Deltas) * I replaced the Network Installation option with a Delta ISOs option. Ideally we could also have a SOURCES option in which case the download page would have links to ALL the relevant ISOs (and hence Development_Version page would be obsolete) * Need to add a disclaimer that it's a Beta near the Top * If the 10.3 Start-up guide is uploaded we could also then link to that * Edited _most_ of the ISO sizes to make them correct as of Alpha7 at least In that case, do you think it will be possible to have a Beta download page in time for Beta1? If there is any other little way I could help (writing any other things) despite limited knowledge here please do let me know. :) [0] forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse/trunk/buildservice/src/software/ [1] http://francis.giannaros.org/files/index.rhtml.patch Kind thoughts, -- Francis Giannaros http://francis.giannaros.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
