oS Leap 15.4 Kernel difference between install and OBS
by Syds Bearda 24 Feb '22

24 Feb '22

Hi, The last few days I've been trying to install a broadcom-wl package from 2 different home repos for my newly installed Macbook Air 2015. However I keep getting the same error while installing, as the kernel version from the broadcom-wl package does not match the installed kernel. Leap 15.4 Alpha: 5.14.21-150400.3.3.x86_64 OBS and PBS: 5.14.21-150400.6.2.x86_64 Why is there a difference between these kernels? Also can we expect an update for the kernel to version xx6.2? BR, Syds -- Syds Bearda Treasurer openSUSE Project opensuse(a)syds.eu

25 Jan '22

Hey, I just migrated the repository for the openSUSE Lesson Plan from KaratekHD/lessons to openSUSE/lessons: <https://github.com/openSUSE/lessons> However, in doing so I lost some of my permissions in the repository (setting repository secrets e.g.). Could someone please add GitHub users "KaratekHD" and "ddemaio" as admins for that repository? Thank you in advance. - Jens
