I've recently upgraded a laptop from 11.4 to 12.2 - the upgrade went very well, no issues at all. However, the machine is clearly not "big" enough to run 12.2+KDE, and the user is now complaining about it being slow and difficult to work with. I could always re-install 11.4, but I thought I'd ask about the possibility of doing a downgrade?
Atm, it is not possible, it may be possible in the future using BTFS snapshots though.
Before throwing all away try changing the main repos (oss,non-oss,update) to the 11.4 equivalents and disable all others. Then try using zypper dup after a ref. If it doesn't work you will not have lost anything but a little time.
Thanks, it's worth a try.
Okay, I tried it - initially it looked good, but then glibc got downgraded to 2.11.3, and things started falling over (message copied by hand): installation of <something> failed, Error: subprocess failed. Error RPM failed: rpm: /lib/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.15 not found (required by /usr/lib/librpm.so.2). I aborted the downgraded at this point, so now the system is presumably in some largely unknown state. I'll install 11.4 and see how that looks. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (14.7°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
