A kernel fix was promised last week but that didn't happen. Some lame excuse about it building on a show machine. Then it was simply forgotten. Ah. If it's kernel related, I'm running 4.4.1-5.g6398c2d-default - maybe that's why I'm not seeing the issue.
Where did you get a 4.4 Kernel for 13.2?
Probably the same place I've been getting the series 4 kernel and posting about it regularly, the "Kernel Stable" repository at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard/
YMMV.
The answer to most questions of this nature lie somewhere under http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/ Feel free to browse there for interesting and valuable things :-)
It's more fun than reading manual pages :-)
Yes. What he said. :) The Kernel Stable repository has various different up- to-date kernel flavours to choose from. There are a couple of caveats - the firmware for my dvb card, for instance, that is distrbuted with the >4.1 series kernels is broken (at least for my card) but I have a workaround; I keep the last working version handy ready to put back into /lib/firmware when it gets replaced (and I have the source etc in /usr/local/src/ so that I can rebuild it if necessary. Apart from that, I have zero problems. I also have dkms installed to automatically handle module rebuilds for nvidia and VirtualBox when the kernel is updated. Saves reinstalling drivers every time. Yes, I know I could use the nvidia drivers from the openSuSE repositories but I've had way more problems doing that than using the NVidia binary installer. Again, YMMV. -- ============================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au ============================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
