[opensuse-factory] First impression of openSUSE 11.0
Sorry if this is a duplicate post. Got message I was unscribed because of some program problem. I installed 11.0 on a Asus P4800D-E motherboard with 4GB memory, 2 - 320GB sata drives, 1 10K 120GB drive. I was surprised that the boot loaded the SIS sata drivers without a problem I have not been able to get 10.3 to load, it hangs loading the SATA-SIS driver. The installation went relative smooth. I had to reconfigure my ethernet card since I have two cards but one is not used. The installer configured the unused one as the internet default. Easy change. My Xerox Phaser 6120 printer installed after I loaded the Xerox supplied PPD. It worked fine. I have two problems right now. No Sound but I need to check the drives, YaST says they are not installed. (snd-emu10k1). Other is the update function. I go to YaST download community repository list, check the ones I want and accept, they do not download, just goes back to original screen. Kontact works fine with KDE supplied with DVD version, also updated kernel to rc8 and it appears OK. Will get back to testing later today and report what I find. Need to install latest Scribus, OpenOffice, Perl, Apache, PHP5 to test. Only other comment is being an older person I find the installer and YaSt screens with the Green backround and small black fonts difficult to read. Is there a way to changed backround or font color and also font size. I changed fonts in KDE and helped with desktop, etc. Keep up the good work!! -- Russ Linux register user 441463 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
