All,
In my move from 11.4 to 13.1 on my Toshiba laptop, my first impression of 13.1 is that it is a good first step towards systemd implementation for openSuSE. It took a number of hours and the cumulative brain-trust of the opensuse list to iron out, but 13.1 is working great and Ilya has done a fantastic job preparing kde3 for 13.1. The boot time for 13.1 is great, 17 seconds to the desktop. I've put a detailed plot of the boot process for the laptop up at for those interested: [pruned]
The biggest time waste was not opensuse related, but came from the forced update to firefox 30 and it's changed interface that caused (and continues to cause) untold problems with toolbar layout, plugins, etc... Yet another example of a gee-whiz new interface that doesn't work with prior plugins,
Install NIGHTLY TESTER TOOLS which 'make' extensions work with new versions of FF. (But there are some Add-Ons which may still not work - but they probably have been replaced by newer, rewritten, versions.)
does little or nothing to improve actual browsing or page rendering, but takes a hell of a lot of time to sort out.
