Now if some of you guys could send me a bunch of things about: - KDE(all I have right now is "The KDE comes in the new 4.14.1 version" -Gnome -Xfce -Any other cool feature you think worths mentioning It would be great
Just a warning from me, a mere user, to backup .kde4 before switching. In my experience it has been necessary to start without a .kde4 folder and rebuild the KDE settings from scratch. It may be possible to copy some configuration files and folders from the backup .kde4 but at least one, Dolphin, has a new format for the files in the share/config/session folder. I like to keep a lot of Dolphin windows and tabs open and the change in format results in loss of all tabs. I had to recreate by hand using the old file to use as a memory aid. My favourite "new" feature so far is that YaST Software Management window stays open after installations are completed. I've been using SUSE for long enough to remember when this feature was last available and I'd missed it. I don't know whether this rates as "cool", certainly not with me, but Network Settings in YaST has replaced "ifup" with "wicked". I have been told that "wicked" is nothing to do with WICD (pronounced "wicked"). "Network Settings" is now the only setup option under "Network Devices" in YaST so I assume the others are defunct? GRUB has been removed as a boot management option. Sadly for me, this removal coincides with a reintroduction of an old bug in GRUB2 for which GRUB would have been a very useful alternative. -- Graham Davis, Bracknell, Berks. openSUSE 13.2-m0 (64-bit); KDE 4.14.0; AMD Phenom II X2 550 Processor; Kernel: 3.16.1; Video: nVidia GeForce 210 (using nouveau driver); Sound: ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
