This line, AFAIK, doesn't work. You have to list every kernel related package name, separated by commas.
The only difference between that line and the one provided in the rpm package that put zypp.conf there originally is I removed the # from the start of line. The line is there originally to provide an example of something that works, suggesting that uncommenting it will cause the originally installed kernel to remain available when a newer one gets installed.
I know, but it doesn't work.... Aparently, they don't "do this".
For me it does work on approximately 30 11.2, 11.3 & Factory partitions, and doesn't work on zero.
For me, it doesn't work on 3/3 11.2 tested. Yast/You doesn't see it and simply updates one kernel with the newer kernel. The radio buttons should be replaced with click boxes, but that doesn't happen unless I list all kernel packages one by one instead of the documented "provides:..." line above. And several posts in the forum concur with this.

No multiversion provided. See?
This is new with 11.3. In 11.2 you need to adjust /etc/zypp//zypp.conf to have: multiversion = kernel-desktop,kernel-desktop-extra or similar. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
