Finished! Should have started with #Fedora #KDE instead of #OpenSuse #Linux :(

Everything JustWorks. Father is happy with new (faster) machine.
Had to set the same wallpaper as Windows7 one though xD

yay! it worked! and after the restart I had whole OS in Polish without any problems... way better experience than with #opensuse :o

(mildly annoying 6 x 9 = 42 on the default wallpaper though xD)

@opensuse argh... everywhere it says "use #Yast to change language in #opensuse Leap" but they removed it in Leap 16.0! argh...

And I just read Nate's blogpost (https://pointieststick.com/2025/10/25/kde-linux-deep-dive-package-management-is-amazing-which-is-why-we-dont-include-it/) and he recommends using #Fedora #KDE (https://fedoraproject.org/kde/) so I guess I'll try that :D

Kinda sad because I wanted to use "european" distribution :(

Now, if I look lower to the Leap 15.6 section I get a Startup Guide. That's useful but it appears to be out of date, because it talks about using a certain package to configure automatic updates, and when I follow its guide that package not installed.

And the package doesn't exist in the repositories, it's not just the automatic installation that's broken....

#openSUSE

but it gets worse, remember I said I installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, the rolling distribution.

Both of those links take me to a documentation site with release notes and an installer guide for OpenSUSE leap 16.0.

1) I'm installing for the first time, so release notes documenting how things have changed aren't useful to me, and they're for the wrong version

2) I just finished installing the OS, I don't need notes on how to install it

#OpenSUSE

offffff This new user experience is ROUGH.

So I've installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It starts with a little window and links to readme, documentation, get software and some other stuff.

The first two links go to THE SAME THING. odd.

#OpenSUSE

So far, open suse has the least friendly installer of any Linux distribution I've used recently (Mint, Fedora), but it works. (well I mean, I hope it works, it's still installing)

#OpenSUSE #Linux

@opensuse #opensuse #linux installation in progress... I do hope I haven't messed up drive / partitions and it will boot 😵🫣😱

Morning tests...

The story behind: a client is considering moving all the new mini PCs in their office to Linux (no BSD is compatible at the moment), since they mainly use web apps and LibreOffice. This client once told me they loved Transport Tycoon, back in the days, so I’m preparing an openSUSE Leap image. I’m sure they’ll be fascinated by this screenshot and the demo installation.

My best friend is at a nursing home with a brain tumor. His family asked me to turn his TV into a picture frame when it is not in use. I'v set up an old Intel NUC with #opensuse and #Syncthing to maintain a folder with pictures to be displayed. Can anyone suggest a good #slideshow program?
It must support smooth transitions and automatic startup, and be able to detect if new content is added or removed from the folder. #linux #photography #recommendations

"Leap 16.0 on a Turing RK1 by compiling my own u-boot" is a worthy #openSUSE #Leap 16.0 release, I'd say 😃

https://feldspaten.org/2025/10/02/Leap-16.0-on-a-Turing-Pi-RK1/

I had a lot of fun building this. And the outcome is amazing. A little but powerful compute node, running Leap 16.0 and soon to be host for some virtual machines again.

Mario #Draghi on 22 Oct: "For years the European Union believed that its economic dimension, with 450 million consumers, would itself bring geopolitical power and leverage in international trade relations. This year will be remembered as the year in which that illusion evaporated."

He goes on: "One lesson is now clear from the way the global economy is 1/x
