Feature changed by: akash vishwakarma (vish_99) Feature #310872, revision 3 Title: We fail at...quality control - openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed + openSUSE.org: Rejected by akash vishwakarma (vish_99) + reject reason: no feature request made. openFATE not meant for + feedback. If user wants to give feedback he is expected to do it on + mailinglists Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Verner Kjærsgaard (vernerliga) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Dear Sirs, - I've been with SuSE since v7 or so. I make my living from Novell/openSuSE products. - it distrubs me everytime I sense a slight lack of quality control in the product(s). I use SLES10/11 for professional deployments - if I can... Many times SLES10/11 will lack libraries that are needed for running various common web-applications. Thus giving me no choice but to leave SLES(n) and go for a stripped down openSuSE installation that works... On the openSuSE side, it disturbs me that (using the KDE desktop) the Knetworkmanager or whatever it's calles these days is still not stable or plain just functioning. If one thows Ubunto at just about any laptop, the wireless just works. In openSuSE, not so. Or is not stable or is not quite polished. This should be corrected. In general I'm left with a feeling that in stead of more features one should concentrate on getting the present ones to work properly :-) Media is still a problem. How come that Ubuntu will show live-tv, openSuSE will not. Not so disturbing to me, I can fix it. But when I'm plugging openSUSE to friends...it becomes an issue. The YaST interface to CUPS isn't quite there yet although much improved over the last couple of versions :-) I wish I could contribute, alas, my programming skills are not goog enough. Sorry. Anyhow, I'm still with Novell/SUSE and I'm planning to stay. Best regards, Verner Kjærsgaard Denmark Novell Certified Linux Professional. Discussion: #1: Bruno Friedmann (bruno_friedmann) (2011-11-16 20:34:29) General quality is really in a big new trend with the help of openqa. Did you know that you can easily run it yourself, contribute to create some basics tests. YaST and cups 1.5 in 12.1 are working, what should be added. then if you don't like it, then fire a browser to https://localhost:631 and you have the native cups administration tools KDE4 is getting better and better, now with the help of obs, you have even differents repositories that offer you new version with fixes that can't be pushed as normal updates. (KR47 etc) About the prop blob things, hey you know the situation, SUSE/Attachmate are US & EU entities. which can't risk the patent war. That's all. Packman repository or videolan can really help and are easy to install. Hope to see you more involved in the next run to make 12.2 even better -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310872
