    Introduction

    It's a lazy Saturday today, so I decided not to make a full install of 42.3 this time, just a simple upgrade of my existing 42.2 to 42.3. It should work just fine because going from xx.2 to xx.3 is a bit like when Suse or microsoft release a "service ...

    NB This how to requires a working Bumblebee configuration


    Users of NVIDIA Optimus configurations so far have not been able to run their entire KDE session on the NVIDIA card instead of the integrated Intel. Here's how to make that happen, big thanks to Zeronte | making Linux even simpler
    NB. All is done from a user session, sudo will be used where root permissions are needed.

    Introduction: TightVNC used to run well as a Service in openSUSE about 5 years ago. TightVNC hasn't worked properly since advanced DEs began with the early releases of KDE4, years ago. I noticed today that it's working again so I thought I should post some notes on how to to get it working.

    There are some official ref notes on the Net:Internet Docs (but they still don't work for me. Maybe they'll work for you, so it's worth a read).

    Software: I have openSUSE 12.3 and the VNC ...

    Introduction: for a couple of years I wasn't able to make my Canon LBP6000 work directly on openSUSE. And I also couldn't print from openSUSE to the LBP6000 if I attached it to Windows (I tried XP, Vista & Win 7).

    I just now tried openSUSE 12.3 and found that it talks to the printer on a Win 7 or 8 box so I better write it down here so I can make it work on the next versions of openSUSE.

    I just muddled my way through this intuitively. So maybe there are some unnecessary or odd steps here, but it works for me (Yahoo!!!!).

    How to Upgrade your openSUSE 12.2 Install to KDE 4.10

    Caveat: As with any upgrade there are risks. openSUSE 12.2 has a perfectly usable version of KDE. This upgrade requires a vendor or package switch to a non standard repository (it is though considered stable and safe) and as such it requires ...
