Kwickshow is a KDE package. you would probably end up pulling in quite a bit of the KDE libraries along with its install. At that point you might as well install Kview or Gwenview.
I could be mistaken, but I think that Kview and Kwickshow are long gone
You're not mistaken. If they would still be in the KDE collection, they'd be in Tumbleweed and they aren't. These days Gwenview is the default.
Which is *extremely* sad. Gwenview is in no way an alternative to kuickshow, with all its menues, backgrounds, settings, tabs, things that take away space, use power and memory, complicate to have several images in separate, freely movable windows...
I am happy that it still exists for 42.3, which - also for the nvidia problems - might be my last openSuse after 20 years...
nvidia problems ???
I have > inxi -Gx Graphics: Device-1: NVIDIA GF106 [GeForce GTS 450] vendor: PNY driver: nvidia v: 390.116 bus ID: 03:00.0 Display: x11 server: X.org 1.20.5 driver: nvidia unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,nouveau,vesa resolution: <xdpyinfo missing> OpenGL: renderer: GeForce GTS 450/PCIe/SSE2 v: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.116 direct render: Yes
using NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.116-custom.run with no problems and that's an *old* card.
It is impossible to run nvidia on my asus laptop. Old story. Many said it's possible, but nobody could hint me how to make it possible. Not on this list, not in the forum, not in bugs.
On my desktop 42.3 it works (no intel/nvidia mix, only nvidia), but I read a lot that makes me fear it wouldn't work after an update to 15x.
Anyway, if there is no kuickshow - a program I use every day and for which there is no usable replacement - I cannot upgrade. I simply need it and am not able to compile from source. When security updates for 42.3 end I'll have to check what there is on win, although I hate even thinking about it :-(
You can still build it from source. The last release was just a year ago[0]. You can also create an AppImage out of it and use it forever. OBS can produce AppImages[1].
