Feature added by: Arvin Schnell <aschnell(a)novell.com> Feature #305144, revision 1, last change by Title: [Feature-request] Yast as a Linux learning tool openSUSE-11.1: New Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Alexey Eremenko <al4321(a)gmail.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hi All ! I Have very good new idea: converting Yast into a Linux learning tool. This is very simple to achieve: Yast must show the commands it executes and files it modifies, in a nice GUI dialog. It will allow all kinds of Linux users understand how things really work. Enable learn new things or remind how old-but-forgotten things work for seasoned people. Great, isn't it ? P.S. Jay Vollmer recommends, that among the commands that Yast shows as it executing, it should also recommend "man pages" for the relevant underlying commands. -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov", 29.jul.2008.

There is console (Konsole) and command tail.

Or, what's under the bonnet, for the Brits. #3: Cyril Hrubis <chrubis(a)novell.com> (2008-07-31 07:11:21) Moving to maintainers to decide. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305144

[openFATE 306972] produce proper diffs for status update mails
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 02 Jan '18

Feature added by: Karsten König (remur) Feature #306972, revision 1 Title: produce proper diffs for status update mails openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Karsten König (remur) Description: Beeing interested in a very active feature request like https://features.opensuse.org/306967 results in a lot of mails, all which contain the full feature request with all the comments, it'd be nice if one could switch to a more bugzilla like behaviour so you only see what's changed, or in case it is an awnser maybe quote the previous message as well, but finding 4 lines tagged with + in a thread where people feel +1 beeing a proper comment is somewhat awkward. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306972

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #305931, revision 1, last change by Title: Temporary Build Support (aka mbuild) Buildservice: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important Requested by: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) Description: A temporary build support is wanted to obsolete what we currently have internal as mbuild.

Afterwards they need to get removed automatically. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305931

I was thinking it's an option to boot in Vesa when the original xorg.conf fails. Than the user is still able to fix the problem via a GUI i.e. YaST and SAX. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305929

[openFATE 306757] big all in one live dvd/usb img (like knoppix dvd)
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 05 Aug '17

Feature added by: Bruno Gerz (bogz) Feature #306757, revision 1 Title: big all in one live dvd/usb img (like knoppix dvd) Hackweek IV: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Bruno Gerz (bogz) Description: It would be great to get live dvd images(factory tree). CDs are out, I think ;-) So you would get more feedback for packages, which are not tested by standard gnome- or kde-only live cd testers - and may be, computer magazines are interested too. It`s not so simple to build and solve all dependencies via kiwi for people, not bound in suse or novell, because anything was changed every week ;-) If not possible because of storage size, so may be you can provide periodically a big kiwi konfiguration file(or only for a released openSUSE) with solved dependencies. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306757
