Did you start with the image at http://www.zq1.de/~bernhard/linux/ opensuse/ - or is there another image I should be looking at?
You should please be looking at the official images on OBS: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:ARM:13.1:Contrib:RaspberryPi https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryP... Similarly, thanks and questions are best directed to the opensuse-arm mailing list since several other contributors deserve credit, too (Marcus Schäfer, Guillaume Gardet, David Sterba, ..., plus the usual suspects Dirk Müller, Alexander Graf and Adrian Schröter) and may be able to help you more quickly. I just posted a status report there the other day [0] as part of our joint post-13.1 testing efforts: Apart from Kiwi not yet resizing the partition of the image during first boot, JeOS-raspberrypi image in Factory was looking pretty good now! There's also an XFCE-raspberrypi image defined (assuming FXCE was a typo?), but that package still has a few unresolved dependencies, such as Firefox. Larry, if you can help update the kernel-raspberrypi package in above :Factory:Contrib repository from 3.11 to your 3.12, that would probably be appreciated by other users!
The repo this image uses is missing a few libraries,
Jim, if you find libraries are missing, please mention which repo you are using and which library you are missing. You might be: ...using an outdated repository, ...facing soft-/hard-float or armv5/armv6 ABI RPM incompatibilities, ...experiencing failing package builds that no one has fixed yet, ...needing a library that's not yet packaged at all, ...needing a package where armv6hl builds have not been enabled yet, or any number of other reasons we can only guess without further info. Please understand that SUSE has no enterprise customers for the Raspberry Pi, so this work is dependent on individual contributions, with people like you hacking on this in their spare time. Testing new images and providing feedback to opensuse-arm as well as updating or adding Wiki pages [1] are easy ways for you to contribute. Keeping track of which packages are failing [2, 3] for what reasons is another, if you don't want to get your hands dirty and actually help with fixing or updating packages yourself yet. ;) Have a lot of fun, Andreas [0] http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-arm/2014-01/msg00008.html [1] http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:ARM [2] https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?utf8=%E2%9C%93&commit=Filter%3A&failed=1&unresolvable=1&broken=1&pkgname=&repo_ports=1&arch_armv6l=1&project=openSUSE%3A13.1%3APorts&defaults=0 [3] https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?utf8=%E2%9C%93&commit=Filter%3A&failed=1&unresolvable=1&broken=1&pkgname=&repo_standard=1&arch_armv6l=1&project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3AARM&defaults=0 -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer; HRB 16746 AG Nürnberg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
