For the record, installing fuse-exfat from packman worked out of the box. Plug in the card and reader, and open it in thunar automatically.
Happy camper here :-)
I've use the fuse and the kernel mode, and tried utilities Go do a search at https://software.opensuse.org/search for your distribution. Talk to the packagers.
Its also in a 'mainstream' repository - http://download.opensuse.org-filesystems
No, see Marcus answer at the top of this mail. Exfat is never going to be part of the distribution.
I'm perfectly well aware of the legal issues and constraints; I have been and have been using fuse-exfat since I started using it to transfer files and photos back and forth with my table, getting for over 2 years ago, if memory serves me correctly. We'd been discussion the unreliability of using "home:" repositories. I said "mainstream" in contrast to that. If I'd meant 'distribution' I would have said 'distribution'.
Also, for 13.1 there is nothing that can be changed or added. Packages and repos disappear, not the other way.
I'm not sure about that. For example ... I use the 'latest' build of 'darktable from home:darix He has up to date builds for * openSUSE_13.1 * openSUSE_13.2 * openSUSE_Leap_42.1 * openSUSE_Tumbleweed as well as other distributions. And I thought 13.1 was 'evergeened'. I never took that to mean 'frozen' or 'decaying' as you seem to imply. The web page for evergreen says that updates will arrive in the usual update repository. There are updates there in the last month. If you are trying to tell me that its not in 'filesystems', then sorry, it is.
# zypper info fuse-exfat
Information for package fuse-exfat: ----------------------------------- Repository: openSUSE BuildService - filesystems Name: fuse-exfat Version: 1.2.4-1.1 Arch: x86_64 Vendor: obs://build.opensuse.org/filesystems Installed: Yes Status: up-to-date Installed Size: 86.6 KiB Summary: Free exFAT file system implementation
If you are trying to tell me that obs:filesystem is not part of the 'distribution', then I can only reply that it's not part of 'home:' either. So we get back to the matter of the repositories having an explanatory 'header' file. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
