[New: openFATE 313119] provide a BD/ Blue Ray download image for openSUSE
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 23 Jun '17

Feature added by: Elmar Stellnberger (estellnb) Feature #313119, revision 1 Title: provide a BD/ Blue Ray download image for openSUSE openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Elmar Stellnberger (estellnb) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: A ready-to-download blue ray image of openSUSE would be a pleasure for anyone who has to work offline from time to time since it will allow you to do and install everything without an internet conncetion. Currently we only have a netinstall CD for backbone internet and a DVD as install medium for average internet connections. However a blue ray image to install and work completely offline - as this was initially possible just within the size of a DVD in the early days of linux (openSUSE 9.3) - would be of much greater value than a DVD providing not much more than a package cache for a minimized first-place install system. Such a blue ray could not only contain the full rpm-set of the core distribution but also important 2nd party repos like those provided by ATI, Nvidia and Packman as well as the most important repos from the BuildService like the SELinux repo for instance. Debian does already provide a fully-downloadable distribution image; however in the form of 8 DVDs + Update DVDs which may for sure be less practical than a single BD. However this seems to be considered much more a security feature in Debian. Mandatory for the Requester as certain working scenarios require a full system image for external or optical media. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313119

Feature added by: Jan Krings (liquidsky89) Feature #310964, revision 1 Title: Add YAST module to set up an OpenVPN server openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Jan Krings (liquidsky89) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Many people today use an OpenVPN server to access their personal networks or networks at work. The set up of an OpenVPN server is complex also, as several adjustments must be made at various points in the system. e.g. OpenVPN Configfile, SUSEFirewall, /etc/sysconfig Files. A module would make it easier to set up a OpenVPNserver. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310964

[New: openFATE 313030] AppSet instead of Apper
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 22 Jun '17

22 Jun '17

Feature added by: Simone Dedo (Templare) Feature #313030, revision 1 Title: AppSet instead of Apper openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Simone Dedo (templare) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: AppSet http://appset.altervista.org/joomla/en can be the default package manager on openSUSE cause, is written in QT and other distribution such Archlinux and Chakra Linux (know for his addiction with KDE desktop). 1)Automatical generation of applications sections (games, office, multimedia, internet etc.) 2)An embedded web browser that shows selected applications homepages 3)An embedded feed reader that shows news from configured distribution 4)A Tray Icon that periodically shows available upgrades 5)The possibility to choose a touchscreen suitable and animated view 6)Administrator packages management (Upgrades, installs, removes applications) 7)Periodical packages database update 8)Checks dependencies contraints 9)Authentication structure that uses what is already installed to get administrative privileges (only when needed), searching from {kdesu, gksu, beesu, xdg-su or at least an xterm where it executes a sudo command} 10)Cache cleaner tool (to free disk space) 11)Can use ad-hoc libraries for a specific distribution or, like in default, it uses an already existing package manager CLI frontend 11)Requires only Qt libs as installation dependency What about? Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: I believe AppSet can be a better package manager instead of KpackageKit or Apper (a new on openSUSE 12.1). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313030

Feature added by: pier andre (pier_andreit) Feature #313000, revision 1 Title: select the graphic driver at boot openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: pier andre (pier_andreit) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: To have the possibility to select the graphic driver at boot in my opinion is a good idea, if you have nvidia or ati graphic cards, and you want to try the new propietary driver and it doesn't satisfy you, or if you want to try the new nouveau driver, if you have the possibility to select the driver (for example nouveau, nvidia, ati or whatever), you can have easyly a working graphic desktop. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313000

[New: openFATE 308467] Proprietary install driver HELP guide

Feature added by: Lee Matheson (oldcpu) Feature #308467, revision 1 Title: Proprietary install driver HELP guide openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Lee Matheson (oldcpu) Description: A constant criticism of openSUSE is the lack of an easy continuous installation of proprietary graphic drivers. Is it not possible to post specific (and very obvious) help links to community wiki that provides guidance as to how the proprietary graphic drivers can be installed (as opposed to just a general statement) ? i.e. a link for community help page for ATI proprietary graphic drivers and a similar one for nVidia proprietary graphic drivers. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308467

[openFATE 308202] Speech recognition
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 22 Jun '17

Feature added by: Daniel FAIVRE (geomaticien) Feature #308202, revision 1 Title: Speech recognition openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Daniel FAIVRE (geomaticien) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Linux and therefore OpenSuSE desktops still lacks speech recognition. Despite nearly everything else is better than under the dark side of Operating Systems ... Some progress were made in open source recognition engines and therefore progress in their desktop integration become a desired feature for a growing number of users. Such a feature requires a full desktop integration and the ability to recognize the dictation of a text in any text editor. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Speech recognition is integrated to windoz desktop since windoz fista, and that is a very cool feature and an accessibility important asset. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308202

[New: openFATE 311011] Boot option "toram"
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 22 Jun '17

22 Jun '17

Feature added by: Matti Vahalinna (Waxborg) Feature #311011, revision 1 Title: Boot option "toram" openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Matti Vahalinna (waxborg) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I've long been amazed about the speed of DamnSmallLinux on a low spec machine when run completely in RAM. I've also seen that this is possible with Gentoo and Ubuntu nowadays. I would love to see this feature in openSUSE Live. This would greatly also improve the impression that new users get when they try out the Live system. So you boot from the Live media and give it an option 'toram' after which a RAM disk is created, the system is copied there and then it is run completely from there. -- Vahis -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311011
