[opensuse-factory] Very small font
As with Leap 42.2, Firefox under TW does suffer from the same problem that fonts on menus are very very small and without zooming in almost not readable to me. It's not a problem of firefox, since using the latest default firefox from mozilla.org under 13.2 has normal readability on menu's. Other menus on other progs are displayed in a readable size under TW. By the way, this is already going on since the release of Leap 42.2. Should I skip the TW firefox and go for the default firefox from mozilla.org instead?

Standard DPI, as in 96?

YaST simply has no equivalent to "zypper dup". I think there is a "factory update" module, but I have never used it. I'm unsure if it is maintained. The best approximation would be, in YaST to select view by repository, choose one, then on the right panel select "update all with newer version", then browse down to find packages in red, then update unconditionally those if appropriate. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

I'm also usure if it's maintained at all - that said, I think we really should have a module like that that is regularly tested and well-maintained. In the GUI, it's way easier to check for anomalies (things I may not want to get changed right at this moment like a package being uninstalled from which I haven't fully migrated away yet or an update going to a version that I know still has some problem because I'm reading this list, or similar thing) and to set taboos or do other adjustments to what gets done in an update. Also, if that tool works well, it could also work decently for "normal" users to update between Leap versions.

and if you look and compare the repos, factory and tumbleweed are not the same. yast is not the recommended way of updating tumbleweed, it is: zypper dup --no-allow-v if you do not follow the "recommended" path, you increase your opportunities for distress and your repoonsibility monitor and avoid pitfalls. ... you chooses your own poison ... -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
Same here, normally sized menu fonts in default Firefox under Tumbleweed. Dual screens, 1920x1080 external monitor and 1366x768 laptop screen. No problems on either screen. On 05-03-17 13:15, nicholas wrote:
