Feature added by: Nikola Milosavljevic (Nikola191994) Feature #306774, revision 1 Title: Speed up openSUSE! openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Nikola Milosavljevic (nikola191994) Description: This should be really nice. It needs to have speed. Fast boot time like in Ubuntu or Fedora would REALLY be nice. Also, speed up most of the applications including YaST and Update manager. On Distrowatch.com, they put up that openSUSE is slow and bloated sometimes(resource heavy YaST or other openSUSE-Specific apps.) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306774

by fate_noreply＠suse.de 13 Jan '11

Feature added by: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) Feature #306522, revision 1 Title: start 10 seconds openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) Description: The start up on 10 seconds, is very important, some distribution of linux has work on that, and would be good opensuse 11.2 start 10 seconds. 1. Loading the kernel and initramfs: 2 seconds 2. Charging drivers, mounting file systems and one thing more: 2 seconds 3. Launch of X. Org: 2 seconds 4. Launching the desktop environment and other services of the session: 4 seconds. that would be one of the best features of opensuse 11.2 -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306522

[openFATE 307489] Combine repositories!
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 30 Dec '10

Feature added by: Jason Fergus (jfergus) Feature #307489, revision 1 Title: Combine repositories! openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jason Fergus (jfergus) Description: openSUSE would be at least 50x easier to install / maintain if they took a different approach to the repositories. Look at Fedora. They dropped Core and Extras and made it one big distribution, then all the dag, livna and freshrpms combined into rpmfusion.org. This is what should / needs to happen with openSUSE. For someone who is used to doing it, this is probably not that big of a deal. To someone who is used to installing Windows and having to scour the Internet for drivers, it's not that big of deal. To someone coming from using mostly Fedora, Ubuntu or Debian, this is HUGE. Fedora is simple, add rpmfusion.org and probably the adobe yum repository and you have access to everything from drivers to flash. In Debian, just enable non-free and contrib, then the debian-multimedia (for mplayer, mythtv etc) and you're all set. Ubuntu really only needs medibuntu repositories and you can get everything you need for a decent setup. openSUSE has a ton that need to be enabled. Emulators, Pacman, nvidia, etc. While it is nice and simple that you have a 'one click' install for most things, it still would be easier / simpler to just run 'zypper install atari800' without having to add the Emulator repository. This and the menus are the only thing that really throws me off of running openSUSE. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307489

Feature added by: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) Feature #306915, revision 1 Title: zypper lu should show scutiry updates in red/bold openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) Description: It would be useful for zypper lu to show security updates in red/bold fonts, to make them prominent, especially as colors are already in zypper version 1.2.0 according to http://jniq.blogspot.com/2009/06/colors-in-zypper.html -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306915

[openFATE 307140] Include Ramlog application in OpenSUSE
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Dec '10

Feature added by: Glenn Doig (doiggl) Feature #307140, revision 1 Title: Include Ramlog application in OpenSUSE openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Glenn Doig (doiggl) Description: See article Improve system performance by moving your log files to RAM http://www.linux.com/feature/141231 (http://www.linux.com/feature/141231) http://tofu3.szm.sk/ramlog/ (http://tofu3.szm.sk/ramlog/) (Some info) The Ramlog project lets you keep your system logs in RAM while your machine is running and copies them to disk when you shut down. If you are running a laptop or mobile device with syslog enabled, Ramlog might help you increase your battery life or the life of the flash drive on your mobile device. As a side effect of using Ramlog, you will be less likely to be caught out by a daemon that suddenly starts sending a message to syslog every 30 seconds and saps your battery keeping the hard disk spinning. Thankyou -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307140
