Re: vote on Slowroll name

by Eric Schwarzenbach

I would just like to offer some /criteria/ to consider for choosing a name. 1) Either build on the familiarity of existing names, or make the name completely descriptive, so the name already suggests something about what it is. "Tumbleweed-Stable" is an example of this, as is Slowroll. Whereas something like "Descent" is only meaningful once someone reads about it. 2) Keep to words with positive associations, not negative. "Stable" is a positive and really the actual goal here I think. "Slow" is only a positive from the perspective of "Tumbleweed moves too fast". For a new user "slow" may not sound very positive. (Nor does "sleepy", "stumble", "sloth", etc. This survey has lots of terrible names I wish I could vote /against/.) If not positive, neutral like "roll". 3) Don't create confusion with other distros. For example "Gecko" appears in some of the names in the survey. There is already a GeckoLinux (http://geckolinux.github.io/) which is a distro that is basically an alternate installer and set of customizations of OpenSUSE (both Tumbleweed and Leap). I hope this survey is just a first round to weed down the unweildy list presented there, and there will be a future round or rounds with a smaller list, and ideally, ranked-choice voting.

[Slowroll] base version bump and kernel-longterm

by Bernhard M. Wiedemann

Dear Slowroll users, I plan to bump the base snapshot version of Slowroll tomorrow to the 20240212 snapshot. With this, we inherit the known issue that around 20 packages were not updated yet to work with rpm 4.19 which makes them uninstallable. Since the last base snapshot from 2023-12-19, Tumbleweed has seen a major rebuild, so expect a large download size for the next update. Also in the news: I added the kernel-longterm 6.6.16 packages from my colleague and fellow geeko Robert Frohl. Thanks a lot for packaging it. Known issue here is that it does not yet work with secure boot and 3rd party kernel module packages (kmps) don't yet build for it. This affects CoreFreq bbswitch crash dpdk drbd facetimehd gasket-driver hdjmod lttng-modules mhvtl msr-safe nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed openafs pcfclock rtl8812au rtl88x2bu tp_smapi v4l2loopback vendor-reset vhba-kmp xtables-addons that are not yet usable with kernel-longterm. Ciao Bernhard M.

Re: vote on Slowroll name

by Fritz Hudnut

We've got a town in Central Coast of California whose three word name is turned into "SLO" . . . from a Spanish name. The locals like the ID of "SLO" . . . . Slowroll could either be "Tumble SLO" or "TW-SLO" . . . would be my vote.
