It would be great if we saw some more factory testing now
That's sure. So we have small steps to do. right now we have no booting support (at least before milestone), or at least the last cd/dvd I tested didn't boot. So I install factory from previous install. It works very well simply starting from 11.4, changing repos and zypper up, and wait.. It don't work from 11.3. I just tried to zypper dup a very loaded 11.3 and got thousands of dependecy conflicts, so I stopped. upgrading with 11.4 works well, and I'm now upgrading from 11.4 to factory and this seems to go well. *But* When one try to install factory, he get a tremendous message "*don't do that, you wont have any support" (I didn't read more). This is plain wrong. it's difficult enough to get factory setup not to think it's a mistake, and we have to give *as much support as possible* The message should something like: "This is Factory, the future openSUSE version, not the stable present one. If you know this, thank for your help in testing openSUSE Factory. It's extremely important for us to have this version widely tested and we are going to help you as much as possible, but of course don't expect Factory to work as bugfree as the stable version" then the message should direct the user to the testing list and bugzilla. I'm very impressed to see factory working so early in the agenda. I only have a problem: don't find any packman, so nearly no multimedia package thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.youtube.com/user/jdddodinorg http://jdd.blip.tv/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
