6. VLC still gave us a lot of hassle and we also installed UMPlayer, but there was not such devotion though….. Note to self: Find a 100% openSUSE alternative for demanding geeks to play mulimedia.

7. Another VLC as last month. OK there was a one-click install for Leap and all went well. Other non-nagging issues were taken care of.

Try Li-f-e, it comes with VLC pre-installed.

9. An interesting case, a guy came complaining about UBUNTU, bla bla bla. He said he came a few months back and picked an openSUSE 12.2 DVD which he has now installed. WIFI was KO, so as he was suspicious of us “messing” his box, we got WIFI to work and guess what? He did a full upgrade with the compliments of my 4G SIM card…. He gives tuition at a school, so he said. I did not tell him about openSUSE Education yet because this is another breed. We will see how it goes next month…

"The aim of this DVD is to provide complete education and development resources for parents, students, teachers as well as IT admins running labs at educational institutes"

Strange that you think a teacher should not know about it.

Hi Jigish Gohil, Sadly, openSUSE-Edu Li-f-e (Linux for Education) is based on openSUSE 42.1 and in schools, 64 bit computers are not part of the décor on one hand. On the other, this very teacher did not seem to be willing to RTM, but that all is delivered on a platter. We have many teachers that come round each time and some do help out to brief new commers. After all they are teachers, right! Does that make sense that I do not indulge his teacher with HAL problems (32 bit and 64 bit) yet? At the end of the day, I will also need to see if corporates are willing to give away 64 bit computers to his school for starters....
