From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: I've parsed my company's list of dialup numbers into the same format as the /usr/share/redhat-config-network/providerdb that ships with Fedora Core 1. The file is rather large: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1629531 Mar 8 18:37 providerdb There is not a mistake in my parsing, my company really does have that many dialups. I will attach the dump from redhat-config-network. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. replace stock /usr/share/redhat-config-network/providerdb with another one containing far more entries. 2. attempte to choose a new ISP from the dialup configuration dialog. Actual Results: The application crashes. Expected Results: redhat-config-network should parse the file as it does the smaller, stock version. Additional info:
So I'm just an idiot. The actual problem here seems to be the lack of an flag xpm for the specific country iso code as specified in the [flag] directive. So, the solution here is to either include an xpm for each flag, or default to some xpm in the case a specific one does not exist.
So, I've temporarily symlinked all the non-existant flag xpm's to one of the oth ers, and it is working. However, it's worth noting that it takes a while to load and parse the providerd b file. (On the order of 6 seconds) Maybe it'd be worthwhile to compile the providerdb into a binary format with an index; thus, only when expanding a country or city, would a portion of the file need to be parsed. Additionally, a dialog to search the provider list (based on area code, etc) wou ld be handy. I will open another RFE for that, though. ------------ Back to the point at hand.... I have attached two xpm's to default to. You're welcome to use one of them as a default if you like.
Created attachment 98391 [details] "question mark" An option for a default flag pixmap for redhat-config-network ISP selection.
Created attachment 98392 [details] "blank" Another suggestion for a default flag pixmap for redhat-config-network ISP selection.
ok, added to CVS
