It seems that upgrading to 4.5 you can't do within the Suse-Yast framework?
It depends on how you interpret that. Yast uses the Zypper library and the 'how to' of various 4.x upgrades using zypper's command line have been discussed here. However if you want to use the GUI based package and software manager out of Yast, you can; just take the same parameters and "fill in the form". I've done it both ways at various times.
The Geek-theme helped in general, but the display of the current virtual desktop is very hard to see: If I tilt the laptop, to have an optimal angle, and then stare at all the virtual-desktop-buttons, then I can see it, but under normal condition at least to me it's not visible.
How high is you panel? I found that setting it a little larger makes it easier to see the various icons and text. Of course there are many other ways to make it hard to see, like making it transparent or not using a high contrast theme or setting. There are many, many themes. Many of the ones that have been 'recommended' here at various times I find difficult to use for similar reasons. YMMV. Find one that meets your needs. Really. "The Truth is out there". Failing to configure for visibility does not make the software in any way deficient. -- The absence of alternatives clears the mind marvelously. -- Henry Kissinger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
