Is the another openSUSE version more stable for 64bit computers?
As Anton likes to say - context is everything. For my purposes & context (desktop business environment, 8-5 office work), 13.1 and 13.2 are both very good. Leap42x is not yet ready for that environment.
I concur, Per, but of course 13.2 is EOL.
In any case, I've concluded that it will be smarter / better this time for me to ride out the rest of 2017 on my current (IMHO) 'production' grade, highly tailored 13.2 installation.
The GNOME2 -> 3 fiasco I experienced during the move from 12.3 to 13.2 was horribly disruptive. I ultimately abandoned GNOME and switched to KDE4. I also installed Mint 17.x w/ Cinnamon DE in parallel -- but in the space that would have normally held the next SuSE / SUSE / openSUSE release. This alternative installation has actually worked out well in the long run, since I'm able to run it at work. Our company's software won't install and run on 13.2.
Is anyone else thinking along these lines?
Thx!
Carl
I upgraded to Leap 42.2 when it came out and found it more stable than 42.1, especially with plasma. Not had any major issues with it. Jide Ogunmekan 22, Little Road, Sabo, Yaba, Lagos.
