I'm sorry if i was perturbating this other thread with my bugs remarks, but I'm very confused on this subject, and -visibly- I'm not alone, so this must be addressed soon.
In short, what is really buggy in the update SUSE 10.1 sytem and what is not?
reading opensuse list and suse-linux-e list, it seems that nothing works on many hardware. The "I hate SUSE" game is full of players.
There are lots of interesting pages about the new package management already. What is what? http://en.opensuse.org/Zmd What are the problems? (If you know of more issues, add them) http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Issues What is Libzypp all about? http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp How does one use Rug? http://en.opensuse.org/Examples_using_rug The one thing we might still need on the wiki is a page on howto work around the problems by using alternative stuff: y2pmsh, Smart, Apt. But there is some usable stuff here: http://spinink.net/2006/05/20/installing-smart-package-manager/ http://dev-loki.blogspot.com/ http://suse.linuxin.dk#smart (for Scandinavians). I know there are different opinions on moving people to Smart - but I have to say I agree that the standard stuff is simply not usable - not with a few additional repos and middle- to low-end hardware at least. To me it's a matter of either moving people to Smart packagemanagement - or moving them to another distro. "Luckily" I'm not on suse-linux-e - but I imagine it's pretty much like #suse. However apart from package management - and maybe beagle running by default - and of course the issues with rt2500 and Atheros wlan - 10.1 is absolutely great. And these issues can all be remedied pretty easily - unless you're a complete newb. Saying "I hate 10.1" is silly - tell these people to find out what it is that they hate about it - and fix these specific issues. But perhaps we should set up a page on the wiki about "10.1 Issues" and how to solve them. Not a bad idea I think - but maybe marketing department would be mad at us - but I think we'd be doing Novell a favour in the long run. Martin / cb400f
