Well, think about it: If you fear that you could annoy the two or three people that read the bugzilla report by a false report, does it then make sense to send the same thing to a list with hundreds or thousands of subscribers to annoy all of them instead? Actually posting something you think is most likely a bug to a mailing list first to get "permission" to enter it into bugzilla is almost everytime a waste of time of hundreds or thousands of people (including yourself's time). Asking something like this on the list makes only sense if it is something that cannot be considered right or wrong but is more a matter of taste. In _that_ case it might make sense to start a public discussion on what other people would prefer. And by the way: Most likely nobody would kill you for some false bug reports --- unless you do all of them on the mailing list. ;-) Robert -- Robert Schiele Dipl.-Wirtsch.informatiker mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur." pgp7tqqZ9IqvL.pgp Description: PGP signature

So far I have only downloaded the X86_64 A4-A5 delta iso and applied it. I checked the media as part of the install but have not independently verified the md5sum of the delta.iso. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can you try out the -vanilla kernel and let us know if that fixes the problem or not? If not, we need to know this real soon as 2.6.22 is about to be released. thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse-factory] Suggestions for "1-CD KDE media"
* Please test the new 1 CD GNOME and KDE installation media and tell us how to improve them. Please keep in mind the space constraints. Tried the 1-CD KDE media on one laptop so far. I've tried the Installation options from the menu (Installation, ACPI disabled, local APIC disabled, safe). They all end up at the same place: "Could not find the openSUSE Installation CD." Did not have this problem while installing other distros on this laptop, including Mandriva, Mint, Mepis, and Kanotix. Compaq Presario 710US booting from that CD, using network install failed from http://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ "Installation system does not match your boot medium." "An error occurred during the installation." installing from 1-CD KDE media with "brokenmodules=pata_via" worked - it decided to use via82cxxx automatic settings for X failed but was able to fix with "sax2 -r -i -a" my wifi card not working - "Agere Systems", "Wireless PC Card Model 0110" From my limited experience, the 1-CD KDE installation could be improved if: 1- a newbie might give up when faced with the installation problem caused by "pata_via". Can this be improved with better hardware detection or with some method that detects the failure and automatically tries an alternative? 2- I remember choosing this wifi card because it used to be supported by Linux. I'll have to dig further into how to get it working. It would seem that wireless networking still needs some improvement. If it can't automatically detect and enable all wifi hardware variations, maybe we can help the newbie with a utility that tries to identify the card and jump to a website with instructions and downloads to enable that hardware. 3- After installation, I tried to add some of my favorite utilities using YAST. Software Management didn't find any of them. Maybe the 1-CD media could automatically add a repository for the Internet installation so that it will be easier for the newbie to add programs? (If that option was already provided during the installation, I must've missed it.) Gregg Nicholas - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse-factory] KIWI looks promising
hi all ! I must say that The KIWI system looks promising... I'll have to dig a bit to find all the rough edges yet... I like the way this concept is built ! I like that it uses single approach for both PXE boot and LiveDVDs... I hope to see Yast-KIWI integration in the future, so some other sort of GUI to control those features. So this technology is really NEW. nice. AFAIK it is available from Alpha5, and may be a very solid addition to openSUSE 10.3. If this will work, it will be one of the biggest changes from 10.2. I still haven't tested it, but I hope to do it soon... But I already have a question: Is SUSE's "KIWI" similar to Fedora's "Stateless" in concept? Are those projects related ? -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
