The screenlocker (automatic screenlocker) is known not to work due to a bug and won't fix because it has been fixed upstream.
It looks as if there are quite many "won't fix" because of fix in upstream.
When will these upstreams reach the current leap installs? Will they ever?
The many leap 42.1 bugs I see here make me think if I'd better reinstall my laptop to 13.2, because as soon as I go travelling it will be my only machine on which I really depend....
I am not sure if this is only a personal feeling of mine or if leap effectively is still too adolescent to rely on it...
Don't know...

Yes there are quite some. To tell the truth, everything will depend on what you do. I encountered no problem with email and with the office (actually the 5.0 libre office of Leap is far more efficient than the 4.x of 13.2. Screensaver has some trouble (but not so many). Depends also on your hardware, with Intel chip-set it is quite o.k. ATI also, with nvidia you have some quirks AFAIK. Blender should work fine on both.

Efficient in terms of what? Uses less CPU-cycles? :-) For me, Leap simply isn't stable. The plasmashell crashes repeatedly on my test system. There's no way Leap is in a form that is ready for a non-IT person to work on 8-5. Ignoring the crashes - PrtScr doesn't work, window switching with Alt-Tab is too slow, thumbnails are missing in Dolphin. Those are minor, but very annoying problems. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (20.3°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
Same problem and same feeling here. I use openSUSE since 12.2 and I found it incredible because since then I always upgraded without a problem. Maybe the openSUSE Project is not facing good times with Leap. I agree that it's not stable and it has problems that a Linux newbie can't solve. I'm not sure I can recommend it to people that are interested on start using Linux, as I was doing with 13.2 and earlier releases. I'm trying to fix its problems on my computer because I like openSUSE. Recently I gave Ubuntu and Kubuntu a try, but I gave up on them. I still prefer openSUSE and I'm giving it one more chance. openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE LiveDVD haven't even showed the desktop up when I tried it, so I installed Leap again. On my computer, screen lock is now almost impossible. This error is common. Also common is Dolphin crashing while moving files. That is very strange. Bluetooth does not work, but it does not work on Ubuntu too, I think that's an upstream kernel bug. I successfully installed my printer only after manually installing hplip from the Printing repo. I'll try to disable screen locking to see if I can get rid of that problem. Em 03-04-2016 10:23, Per Jessen escreveu:

I have leap running and besides of some minor things it runs very good. KDE has problems, though. Meanwhile I believe that it is most important part of KDE philosophy to completely begin from scratch and thus invoking all the new errors again and again, as soon as a version reaches some stability. I would almost bet that KDE 5/plasma will be abandoned as soon as it kind of really works. Looking forward to KDE 6/quark... Am 26.07.2016 um 15:41 schrieb Antonio Vinicius Menezes Medeiros:

I had this quite often as well. I thought it was because I had a reboot pending after an update. I thought it was because I had another console open (ctrl-alt-f2) I thought it was because I had a VirtualBox running I solved all those problems and rebooted, and the problem was gone but I am none the wiser because I used a shotgun. There are bug reports that are on file with Wontfix, but I believe the developers were referring to getting rid of the message (reverting to black screen) and they are still looking for the corner cases that cause this. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
