Re: [opensuse-factory] Plan for 11.2?
I'd like seeing 2 things mostly to do: - when you click on a downloaded rpm from dolphin you get dependency errors even if the dependencies are in your enabled repository..so you have to install deps via zypper/yast and then click on the rpm file. This should is not very easy for the end user...especially if he comes from ubuntu where gdebi automatically handles this kind of situation. -kernel 2.6.28 is almost released but 11.2 will probably ship with >=2.6.29. Kernel 2.6.29 will bring kernel mode setting (flicker free boot with support for wide screen resolutions, better suspend). Fedora has a new implementation of graphical boot, that uses kernel mode settings; it's called plymouth and it's already working in fedora 10. Ubuntu is considering to switch to it for the next version. I think that opensuse should think about it too. Here's a link with some more infos and a video of plymouth+kernel mode setting: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Njg3Nw and here's a page with a summary of fedora's work: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterStartup -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
