Amongst my global company customers I did not find a single one who would decide in favour of Linux (not even talking of Novell Linux) because zmd is there. This stuff is not just imposed onto the community, it's imposed onto companies as well. It has created the hugest bloat of an operation system since MVS/VM times. It's by far the least stable component of openSUSE and guzzles CPU cycles and time off the users and the companies. Might sound far fetched, but the zmd adventure - being clearly of much less tragic nature than some civilization exercises in the Middle East - would also benefit from rethink what we are all doing when wasting time and resources dealing with one of the most bitter jokes in software architecture.

Re: [opensuse-factory] GRUB error - can anyone help please?
On 2006/11/28 07:30 (GMT+-0500) Felix Miata apparently typed: I did a FTP install from the beta2 mirror state IIRC. Shortly after I did some partition rearranging, moving the factory from hda21 to hda10. After editing the appropriate files and running grub-install, it would not boot when hda10 selected from IBM Boot Manager or when hda10 chainloaded from grub on another partition. Loading the kernel and initrd from grub elsewhere worked fine. After updating to the rc1 mirror state I reran grub-install once again, and now it boots from BM, and presumably also from chainload. The rc1 graphical grub boot menu is way cool! I just stumbled onto a clue why my problem may have occurred, but don't know what to make of or do about it. I just grabbed the newest default kernel rpm via ftp and ran rpm -ivh on it. After mkinitrd's bootsplash output came these two lines: ERROR: Core::SplidDevPath: Cannot get device for (hd0,20)/boot/grub/stage1 ERROR: Core::SplidDevPath: Cannot get device for (hd0,20)/boot/grub/stage2 The error is understandable, as when initially installed factory was on hda21. Now hda21 no longer exists. I moved factory to hda10 over a week ago. What triggered the errors? What is remembering the original installation target? Reboot with the new 2.6.18.2-31-default kernel seemed totally normal. -- Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven. Matthew 5:12 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Extended IPv6 support disabled. Whence it follows that there are two issues: 1.) Enable state matching in ip6tables (maybe simple) The new and AFAIK still experimental connection tracking code has to be enabled in the kernel.

[opensuse-factory] OSS 10.2RC1 some questions
Hi, again I'm playing with beta software after the experience with SL 10.1 and early SLES 10 was not so good - but 10.2 seems to but much better in the actual stage :-) I'd like to use xfce as standard desktop, I think what was included in Beta 2 DVD but in RC1 I have to install it from external sources (http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ or http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-Factory-non-oss /inst-source-extra/). On a second box these sources where not available (I got an error when I tried to add or use them), so the xfce package was not available to install. Today I had more success I could add xfce via yast too! Wouldn't it make sense to include xfce also in the standard distribution for systems that don't have a lot of Gigas? On my Netfinity 3000 with iP3/512MB Gnome and KDE are not useable and if I'm localy at the box sometimes it's not too bad to have a modern GUI! How can I configure the automatic startup with startx of xfce, I thought it is enough to set the default window manager to xfwm4 (or xfwm) in the sysconfig? I can start xfce with startxfce4 but with startx x only fvwm2 comes up. Right now I have an AMD Athlon X2 with Pacifica for testing, so I tried a litle bit of Xen again, and for the first time using the xen yast module. Manually I can start my old SLES10b3 paravirt. installation (the config file is not located in /etc/xen/...), and if it's started I can manage it with the yast module. I also started my old W2k3 server installation (created with SuSE Linux 10.1 GM, Kernel 2.6.16.13-4-xen, Xen 3.2-09656-4 on an Intel iPD 920 with VT), it seems to start, there are no relevant errors in the logs but the SDL window never opens and I can't connect to the HVM with VNC. So I created a new HVM with WXP, with the xen yast module it is quite easy to do so :-). I started the installation, the SDL window opens, boots from the CD and the first stage of the WXP installation was sucessfully finish. But if I try to reboot I don't get the SDL window again, so I can't say what is going on right now! The Online update process also seems to work, right now it is doing the 4th kernel update, may be some of the xen problems are solved with this. But the update messed up the grub menu, the original openSuSE 10.2 / openSuSE-Xen entries are not working anymore (Err 16: File not found, xxx-2.6.18.2-23 was not replaced by xxx-2.6.18.2-33) and if I try to start the new Kernel-2.6.18.2-33-xen entry I get: Booting 'Kernel-2.6.18.2-33-xen' ... ... Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format After correction of initrd /initrd-2.6.18.2-33-xen to module /initrd-2.6.18.2-33-xen the Xen kernel also was starting! And it seems that Xen SDL is running now too! BTW: Is there any reason why tripwire is not included in the distribution anymore?

[opensuse-factory] Possible powersave bugs in 10.2 RC1
Hi, I've come across some issues related to powersave on a clean install of openSUSE 10.2 RC1. 1. When kpowersave is running and a laptop power button is pressed, powersaved complains (and nothing else happens): Nov 27 07:52:05 vaio powersaved[31177]: Debug (handleHWEventRequest:170) type: button/power, dev_name: PWRB, port: 0080, count: 0015 Nov 27 07:52:05 vaio powersaved[31177]: Info (handleHWEventRequest:215) button.power event occured Nov 27 07:52:05 vaio powersaved[31177]: Debug (haveClient:313) We don't own the interface org.freedesktop.Policy.Power If I shutdown kpowersave, button events work as set in /etc/sysconfig/powersave/events. The issue is that button events are not configurable in kpowersave, therefore there is no way to e.g. set the power button to trigger a 'suspend to ram' instead of the default action assigned by kpowersave. 2. s2ram It appears that options are read from /etc/sysconfig/powersave/sleep instead of /etc/pm/config. I have set the '--force' option in /etc/pm/config, however when triggering suspend to ram from the kpowersave context menu, the system attempts to suspend to ram but instead of powering off, comes back complaining about '--force' not being set. '--force' is only set in /etc/sysconfig/powersave/sleep. Furthermore, the s2ram scripts still point the user to /etc/sysconfig/powersave/sleep for configuration. 3. Brightness Changing brightness works fine using kpowersave. When using the laptop hotkeys (Fn+F5/F6) for changing the brightness, a message window shows up (it has the same look as when pressing volume hotkeys, I just don't know which program it is), indicating that brightness is being changed, however only the LED brightness of the power-button on the laptop-chassis changes but not the display brightness. Some more info: powersave version is 0.15.8-3 pm-utils version is 0.20.0.20061114-2 kpowersave version is 0.7.1 Laptop is a Sony Vaio VGN-T1XP Thanks for any comments.

Re: [opensuse-factory] Test-Kernel - boot partition
Hi, Whenever you set up a Linux system, reserve more space for /boot than one kernel needs; reserve at least four times as much. Or change the setup not to have a /boot filesystem. Fedora's installer chastizes you if you try to set /boot to a partition of much less than 80M. I get that error any time I do a since many years I always set my extra boot partition (primary) to 23MB, but since I'm doing more with Xen and harddrives larger 100GB I decided to increase the boot partition to 1GB. The question is, is it still usefull to create a seperate boot partition or could it also be together with / (root)? On most installations I have: /boot / /usr /tmp /var /home /extra-data...

Is this a (known) bug or are they corrective actions I can try? I don't know if it's related but I can see an error message at boot time about udevd not being able to lookup the disk group. Just wondering, might it have to be with https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223744 ? If not, sorry for the reply.

Hello, * Andreas Jaeger [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2006-11-28 21:53]: we just have prepared a ntfsprogs package which supports resizing of NTFS partitions for Vista. This is rather new and untested and we therefore need some testers to test: * resizing of normal ntfs partitions Works here.

Shortly after I did some partition rearranging, moving the factory from hda21 to hda10. After editing the appropriate files and running grub-install, it would not boot when hda10 selected from IBM Boot Manager or when hda10 chainloaded from grub on another partition. Loading the kernel and initrd from grub elsewhere worked fine. After updating to the rc1 mirror state I reran grub-install once again, and now it boots from BM, and presumably also from chainload. The rc1 graphical grub boot menu is way cool! I just stumbled onto a clue why my problem may have occurred, but don't know what to make of or do about it. I just grabbed the newest default kernel rpm via ftp and ran rpm -ivh on it. After mkinitrd's bootsplash output came these two lines: ERROR: Core::SplidDevPath: Cannot get device for (hd0,20)/boot/grub/stage1 ERROR: Core::SplidDevPath: Cannot get device for (hd0,20)/boot/grub/stage2 The error is understandable, as when initially installed factory was on hda21. Now hda21 no longer exists. I moved factory to hda10 over a week ago. What triggered the errors? What is remembering the original installation target? Reboot with the new 2.6.18.2-31-default kernel seemed totally normal. Please file a bugreport for this! What product and component? IOW, whose fault is it likely to be? So, is this a 10.2 install? In that case against 10.2, component kernel, Yes, RC1. But, I feel like I've described more than one problem (1-failure to boot after moving partition and reinstalling grub, 2-/etc/grub.conf not getting rewritten as required on YaST2 system upgrade after partition relocation, 3-error messages after mkinitrd portion of new kernel installation), and don't know which you'd like filed. /etc/grub.conf was left untouched from its original installation creation state (the old partition originally installed to) after I used YaST 2 System Update to upgrade to RC1. -- Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven.

One disadvantage can be the you can't mount it readonly, but what else? Once you get a good working grub on a /boot partition, you can use it to start any number of installs on any number of partitions. On all but one install you leave /boot on the root partition, and on that installation you're not messing with the one that you know works. If a new install fails to properly complete or install its own grub, you can still start without need for rescue media. You can also copy the installation kernel and initrd for any given distro to the /boot partition, and never need to burn any CD to start either an install, or a rescue. If adequately sized, it can also be a handy location for backup copies of your most used config files to refer to or replace those resulting from a new install. It can also be useful if you shuffle hardware around frequently and might still have systems that recognize not more than 1024 cylinders for booting. -- Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven.
