71KNOWN ISSUES
72============
73
74See bugzilla.yoctoproject.org
75
76382 - oprofile-server on PPC is built big-endian while oprofile-viewer
77 on host system may built with little-endian, but oprofile-server
78 and oprofile-viewer are not implemented to correctly handle
79 conversion between host byte order and network byte order, so
80 oprofile-server and oprofile-viewer may run into connection issue.
81
82439 - No audio from the Blacksand board Front Channel auido jack.
83 Workaround: run the following cmd: 'amixer sset "Front" 30 on'
84
85467 - Issues building with Fedora 14, this distribution provided a version
86 of make that is not compatible with the Poky build system, the
87 workaround it to build a native version of make via the build system.
88 Users of Fedora 14 will need to do a 'bitbake make-native' before
89 running any other targets.
90
91429 - Building poky from scratch with /opt/poky in your path cause host
92 contamination issues, be sure that /opt/poky is not in your path
93 if building from scratch
94
95160 - The Emenlow Hardware gets stuck in the HW Reboot sequence and needs
96 to be power cycled.
97
98Zypper / RPM Issues
99489/490/491 - Due to some archetectual difference between Zypper and RPM5.0,
100 there are some compatibility issues that prevent zypper from
101 working correctly.
102 Packages can still be managed with the rpm commands.
