I meant no fancy pretty "xcreensaver-esque" screen savers.

I know I could use actual "xscreensavers", but it has too many integration issues and I really don't like having to leave system settings to play with screen savers.

Plasma 5 developers deliberately made the decision not to integrate xcreensaver modules.

I could make my screen go blank (actual screensaver), but what I am looking for is a KDE plasma5 integrated bouncing cow (and I would like the option to set DRI_PRIME=1 to have it rendered on my secondary GPU)! I guess a "Just blank when on battery" would be nice because some screensavers really suck down the power (but who cares, they look nice).

Unfortunately, after reading the blog about the decision, I am pretty sure it isn't going to change. It really is a first-world-issue though. Not a deal breaker for an otherwise amazing distro.

xset has nothing to do with xscreensaver. But you might have learned that if you had bothered. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 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

How is: "zypper --no-allow-vendor-change dup" better than "zypper up"? (Or changing the setting in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf and then running "zypper dup") If I am doing it wrong and it may cause problems down the road, I would be interested in changing this. So far, I have a stable OpenSuse tumbleweed with 27 enabled repos. I have seen quite a bit of debate about "zypper up" vs "zypper dup", but I never seem to miss out on anything with "zypper up". -- Ben Ben Holmes Customer Engineer Interactive Pty Ltd Telephone +61 7 3323 0800 Facsimile +61 7 3323 0899 Mobile +61 421 406 456 www.interactive.com.au ------Confidentiality & Legal Privilege------------- "This email is intended for the named recipient only.

After this I added the rest in one at a time and migrate to them as time goes on. After upgrading and due to having a lot of repos, I "zypper up" instead of "zypper dup" where possible to stop swapping to whatever repo has the highest version (that can cause issues).

That is what solver.dupAllowVendorChange (or --no-allow-vendor-change) is for. N�����r��y隊Z)z{.���r�+�맲��r��z�^�ˬz��N�(�֜��^� ޭ隊Z)z{.���r�+��0�����Ǩ�

I still get some file conflicts with old stuff that was installed, but I have been able to safely just say "yes" to that question (most of it is language packs for some reason).

Unless the affected packages are related to "kde" the conflicts should be fixed by proper provides/obsoletes. Do you have a list of affected packages? Olaf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
