[...]Does this make sense so far? After the updates, /etc/SuSE-release still says "openSUSE 12.3" and not Tumbleweed, in the Grub2 screen I also still see openSUSE 12.3. Does this not change to "Tumbleweed"?[...]
yes, below
Tumbleweed is not (yet) a separate distro, or some other thing, is just a repository for the latest openSUSE released, which now is 12.3 and in some months,will be 13.1. It's more like the update repository with version updates allowed, just this, nothing more.
Tw is indeed not a separate distro but I have seen discussion that it may become it's own *version*. Tw *is* an automagical system that continually upgrades (upversions?) itself and when the next openSUSE version is considered ?stable? (probably wrong word to use) openSUSE "current" repos graduate to that newer version. Greg KH maintains and does testing before commits and I have seen *very* few hiccups even not completely following the standard path, ie: I have added repos for packages that are particularly useful for me. ps: Please refrain from "top posting" in openSUSE lists. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
