[opensuse-factory] WLan pkgs no longer in update channels..

2007-05-31 Thread M9.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

In 10.0, there were pkgs for wireles pcmcia-cards that indeed worked fine.
But the modules in 10.2 that are installed by default,do not.
You have to configure them yourself, but the right choice: wireless,
pcmcia, makes only the networkmanager think that it is okay, but there
is no real connection made.
Are there any known tricks to make it work, or should i file a bug?

[opensuse-factory] CD Packages Yasm Nasm

2007-05-31 Thread M Harris
hi, I was referred to this list from [opensuse-project]--- to request a 
package change for the next release CD|DVD of openSUSE.

My suggestion is to include the packages [ yasm, nasm ] on the five(5) CD set 
as well as the DVD. Currently it is included on the DVD, but was omitted from 
the CDs. Also, it would be helpful (for some of us at least) to have yasm, 
nasm, auto-included in either the "development" selection or the "experienced 
users" selection in Yast Software Management. 

TIA

Eh, 10.2 is not that old ;) Fixed in 10.3. Thanks Michael!

O:-)

No, because it always has had things and features not found in any other 
distro, and that's a good thing, IMO. If there were no differences, there 
would not be special interest in any distro.

Yes, that would be nice. Not a default choice, but an option. It could be 
improved by having that option only for some users (those that do 
administration tasks), but then it wouldn't be so simple to implement in 
yast/suseconfig.

Or the file has changed name to something more sensible.

By that logic, we need only one distribution, since there would be no 
justification for them to differ from one another.

Strange, not on my system:

/etc/slp.reg.d/sane.reg:
...
##Register a saned service on this system
service:scanner.sane://$HOSTNAME:6566,en,65535
...

But it's marked as a config file, maybe you got a very old version...

Oh boy, do I feel stupid now. Works fine like that...

Ooops, all the other .reg which are system-supplied all have a space
instead of a colon after "service" as well:

/etc/slp.reg.d/sane.reg:service scanner.sane://$HOSTNAME:6566,en,65535
/etc/slp.reg.d/ssh.reg:service ssh://$HOSTNAME:22,en,65535
/etc/slp.reg.d/ssh.reg:service fish://$HOSTNAME:22,en,65535

And a heap of others. Before I file a bug report, is SlpReg.html right
and all the SUSE files wrong?

Thanks,

Volker

That package is in SUSE 10.0. There was a toss-up with sax2 shipping
either a useless whois or some unrelated command called whois, someone
realised the mistake and fixed it. 10.0 is the only one with this
problem.
