Feature changed by: Jonas Rüdiger (JSowieso) Feature #311446, revision 2 Title: Split Kernel rpms from Tumbleweed repo openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Bill P (google01103) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Currently the Tumbleweed repo contains both app and kernel rpms, I propose that the Tumbleweed project be split into 2 repos - kernel and apps. The reason for this being that updating a kernel can be much more problematic/disruptive to an existing install compared to just updating apps. I admit this might be an unwarranted personal concern but it gives me pause when considering using the Tumbleweed repo. Locking the kernel rpms would also lock the oss repo's kernel updates which would not be a wise move as oss kernel updates have defined pupose (stability, security). + Discussion: + #1: Jonas Rüdiger (jsowieso) (2011-03-20 19:47:01) + Tumbleweed's kernel didn't work with the official Nvidia driver + package, last time I tried, and I don't want to build it myself every + update. It would be nice to be able to stick with the official kernel, + as an option. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311446
