I have Opensuse 10.2 installed. I've seen several negative references to ZENworks here and I've noticed that it's involved when I install new packages. But what is it? What if anything should I do about it? Is there a helpfile somewhere that describes it? And why does it get such a bad press?

zenworks is a comercial Novell application. Part of it is opensource and used by openSUSE, namely zen-updater, used to update management of packages. The first coming of zen-updater on 10.1 was terrible -enormous cpu usage, extremely long access time...- but that was mostly fixed and now 10.1 runs pretty well (I still use 10.1) however zen-updater is probably still quite slow and ressource expensive and some people find it unusefull. so you may stay with it if you don't notice it's running, so long so good. is ever this little app was a problem for you, you have many clues on the wiki to get rid of it jdd -- http://www.dodin.net Votez pour nous, merci - vote for us, thanks :-) http://musique.sfrjeunestalents.fr/artiste/Magic-Alliance/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
