Re: 10.2 partitioning. Sucks!


Enough said. You don't like "top replies" so here it is.

Evidently YOU are a myopic bureaucratic stifneck. Obviously
you also don't read many release notes where it states what
was corrected & what the "known issues" are; known issues
are what still need to be done. Some developes also state
just state that there are still things that need to be fixed
or added.

If a "developer" only is concerned with OFFICIAL problems,
then that developer isn't worth it if that person ignores
known problems because it wasn't OFFICIAL even if that
developer also experienced the same problem.

I can just see either a cop or fireman saying they cannot do
anything because there is no OFFICIAL report of the incident.

But I guess the Calif attorney general is of the same thought
process you have. Brown is not upholding or enforcing the
state constitution because there is NO OFFICIAL charge that
the state legisture is violating the state constitution when
they are supposed to pass the state budget by a certain date.
I do see perjury here, if that is applicable since it is
part of the oath of office.

That said, I do not see the problem. I do not want to say that there
isn't one, I just do not understand what the problem is. I can
re-partition anything I desire at any moment.

EVERYONE is a tester.

That is what I am saying. And I use the meaning 'tester' very loose.

The early linux distributions that aren't into
the "nice" install procedure do allow partitioning as the installer wishes.

Get off your high-horse. From what I've seen frequently, you so-called
experts imply that anything wrong is the users' fault; problems are ignored
or considered inconsequential.

Not me. It can be anybodies fault. It is just that IF you find a fault,
the best thing is to report it. Wether this is a design fault or a
programming fault is irrelevant.

If *YOU* only consider OFFICIAL notification is valid, then YOU are following
m$ policy; even then some bug reports are ignored, considered user error or
"wait until the next version" when you buy it.

Yep, I only consider things that the designers are aware of relevant.
The best way to tell them is to go to bugzilla and report it.

Guess you're one of those who got theirs working & the hell with other
people.

Guess you are one of tose people who believe that developers are
clearvoyant.

An example. I use maeSUSEdvd and I notice that when I run it, it gives
an error when ran from withing zsh on a portable with 512M of memory.
I see this in version 0.1 up to version 25.7.

I can now say that the maker of that program is an idiot, or I can tell
him that I noticed it, so he can repair it.

And yes, sometimes people will read bugreports and then decide it is not
a security issue, so it will get only into the next version. Perhaps
they think it is a bad idea and will not apply it (Back letters on a
black background is not a good idea and will be ignored) or will have
such a low priority that it will be dealth with if enough people are
available.

That said, only bugs that get reported wil be looked at and filterd out.
If it isn't reported, it isn't dealth with.

If you have a way to solve issues without people knowing they are there,
please come forward, because everybody would love that solution.
Unfortunatly, nobody knows that, unless you tell everybody how it works.
Bit of a catch 22. ;-)
