Why does the 10.3 (Beta) Live even require the need for a stupid password?
It is Beta created on the fly using KIWI. http://en.opensuse.org/KIWI
(SuSE is going from bad to worse at each "improvement" "release" since Novell bought the German company. I downloaded the CD of 10.3 Beta 1 together with the CD of the ADDON-NON OSS Bi-Arch and there is NO way that I can install all the files/applications: there is no Midnight Commander, no kernel source, no pico or nano, no kradio, et alia.)
I have Midnight Commander, kernel source, and no nano, as I need only one text editor and I'm happy with the one in Midnight Commander. You can use Factory repository to install all missing packages or download DVD.
The CDs downloaded from the SuSE site do not contain mc or the kernel source or nano (pico IS there) - which is not what was the situation in the past. I cannot do without mc (the file manager of my choice),and the kernel source is ESSENTIAL to be able to install the nVidia driver.
Some beta bugs are annoying, but, as others mentioned, it is a beta.
Previous betas did not have these problems. So why now? Cheers. -- Past experience, if not forgotten, is a guide for the future. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
