This question I have already asked but don't recall what the answer was so am therefore asking again (with an apology if you find it a repetition): will Tumbleweed ever find its place in the sun with its own name in GRUB MENU or will it be forever a number instead of a name (eg, 20151030)? And as an adjunct to this question: will discussions/questions re Tumbleweed forever be consigned to the FACTORY mail list?
Next question.
I have the latest Tumbleweed installed (or rather TW upgraded to the latest release as of yesterday). Now TW has been going for quite some time and is not "a new kid on the block" but the only repositories it has to its name showing in YaST are:
* download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed
* download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss
* download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss
and when you go and try and ADD repositories the only COMMUNITY repositories available are:
* Main Repository (Sources)
* Main Repository (DEBUG)
On the other hand, openSUSE 13.2 (and earlier) have a host of Community repositories available such as Packman, libdvdcss, Games, et al -- but Tumbleweed has zilch (aka zero, nil, nothing).
I make much use of VLC (from videolan.org) to watch digital television on my computer (my wife can watch whatever SHE likes on the big screen in the lounge :-) ) as well as watch DVD films. I also like to play some games included in Pysol. But neither vlc nor Pysol are available in
Tumbleweed. I've got these in my list, is this what you mean? No, this is not what I mean :-) . oh ok.
:-)
Where, and how, did you get this list of repos? They are not listed in YaST's (for Tumbleweed) Community Repositories. i think i started at the openSUSE web page that list additional repos outside
http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/SuSE/Tumbleweed/ http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ their control. i also went to http://download.opensuse.org/repositories in konqueror and traversed up and down the directories.
And this is where much goodly-doock and BS comes into play. And you must know what I mean. A lot of "wink, wink, nudge, nudge, you know what I mean?" BS, right?
