I hope that this mailing list is appropriate for my question. If not, I apologize for the bother.
No need to apologise, this is indeed the correct place to ask your question ;-)
I have successfully installed openSUSE 12.3 on my Samsung Series 3 ARM Chromebook. However, I cannot find the many applications that one would expect in an openSUSE release, for example mozilla firefox, or libreoffice. I have explored the urls around
http://download.opensuse.org/ports/armv7hl/distribution/12.3/
and have "googled" extensively, but could not find complete applications of the type I am seeking. Is it expected that one must locate source code for these applications and build them for oneself or are there repositories already in existence that I simply could not find?
Unfortunately both browsers (Firefox/Chromium), and LibreOffice are packages that require a fair amount of massaging to build correctly. They take a long time and also a lot of resources. I have a relatively recent build of Chromium including debuginfo if you want, you can grab it from here[0]
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Bob Bernstein
