BtrFS and Windows XP

If you have Windows XP and want to install openSUSE 13.2 with BtrFS, an error
message in YaST will inform you about problems during the bootloader
installation.

The safest option is to install in a partition with Ext4 instead of BtrFS.
There is a fix that will reach Factory soon, but will be not present for 13.2.

Unbranded Grub2 on New Installs From Live

A bug in YaST prevents the branding in GRUB2 bootloader when installed from the
LiveCD medium. Note, the preferred way to install openSUSE 13.2 is using the
DVD or the NET install. Both mediums generate a proper branded bootloader
during the installation.

NET Installation Using Wifi

Performing the NET install using Wifi presents some problems in YaST. Fixing
this is work in progress and will be soon available. Meanwhile the only option
is to use a wire connection to complete the NET installation.

Information About the FGLRX Driver

For more information about the AMD FGLRX drivers in openSUSE 13.2 and its
status, see https://lizards.opensuse.org/2014/11/01/
fglrx-warning-opensuse-13-2-tumbleweed/.

Second Static Mouse Pointer

If you see two mouse pointers and have two graphic boards, where one is an
Intel board, try uninstalling xf86-video-intel and thus using the other one
only. This will make disappear the static mouse pointer.

This and other issues with the Intel driver like (see http://
bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=901506) will be worked on and, if
possible, addressed with an online update.

Missing Dependencies for virt-manager

If you find a problem executing virt-manager, try installing
typelib-1_0-Gtk-3_0, typelib-1_0-SpiceClientGtk-3_0 and typelib-1_0-GtkVnc-2_0.

In the online update there will be a new version with those dependencies made
explicit.

Modem Authorization After Suspend

openSUSE 13.2 is a more strict in security tha 13.1. If you are connected via a
UMTS or 3G modem and you suspend the machine, the system will ask you for the
root password before reconnecting.

You can change this behavior changing a line in /etc/
polkit-default-privs.standard:

# ModemManager
org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Device.Control    auth_admin:auth_admin:yes


with:

# ModemManager
org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Device.Control    auth_admin_keep


Package Search Missing in GTK UI of YaST

The GTK interface of YaST does not feature a package search box. So if you are
in GNOME or XFCE and you need this feature, use QT interface instead:

sudo /sbin/yast2 --qt

openSUSE pre-13.2 cifstab ????

Removing openSUSE 13.1 KDE Wallpaper After Upgrade

If the openSUSE 13.1 KDE Wallpaper still appears after the system upgrade,
remove it from the user cache manually:

rm ~/.kde4/cache-*/plasma-wallpapers/usr/share/wallpapers/openSUSEdefault/contents/images/*

MATE Desktop official integration

The MATE desktop is now officially available under openSUSE 13.2 with MATE
version 1.8.1, the latest stable release. It provides an intuitive and
attractive desktop environment using traditional metaphors for Linux and other
Unix-like operating systems.

The objective, for openSUSE, is to provide the same experience users had when
they used GNOME under openSUSE 11.4, with the main-menu and the Sonar theme.

Slow Start-up in GNOME

GNOME autologin can cause a slow boot process. Probably there is a race between
services not correctly marked to depend on each other. Until the fix will be
available as an online update, a workaround is to temporarily disable the GNOME
autologin feature.

YaST (Qt GUI): "Service Manager" Icon Appears Twice

In the System section of YaST (Qt GUI) the icon Service Manager appears twice.
There is a bug in the Qt version of the YaST Control Center that does not honor
the ?hidden? flag in the desktop files.

This will get fixed with the next YaST online update.
