"Aeon" boot and login screen after a fresh Slowroll install

Hello,
I previously searched for a topic mentioning this but didn’t found.
I have 2 test installations of Slowroll (for Gnome desktops) : the first is an “upgrade” from Leap 15.5 and second is an install from scratch with Slowroll iso, version 8.13 of 2024-08-11.
The two installations are up to date, performing regular zypper dup and they use the same repos, following the official instructions :

  • openSUSE:repo-non-oss (http://download.opensuse.org/slowroll/repo/non-oss),
  • openSUSE:repo-openh264 (http://codecs.opensuse.org/openh264/openSUSE_Tumbleweed),
  • openSUSE:repo-oss (http://download.opensuse.org/slowroll/repo/oss) and
  • openSUSE:update-slowroll (http://download.opensuse.org/update/slowroll/repo/oss).

However, the install from scratch presents “Aeon” title and logo in boot and graphical login (the other is for “Tumbleweed”) and some other glitches like icon missing for GNOME PackageKit Update Viewer.
I’m surprised that theses elements didn’t get updated with dup. I know this distro is experimental / alpha but if there are known issues, is there a documented way to patch it ?
Thanks by advance,
Regards

@vertclair Hi, there is no “Aeon Slowroll”, Aeon is a separate product release with it’s own installer etc. Patterns are present as that’s how Factory works, but not for installing on Slowroll or Tumbleweed.

Ref: https://aeondesktop.github.io/

This is a current error in the Slowroll installation. Open YaST software and search for distribution-logos. Select distribution-logos-openSUSE-Slowroll and deselect distribution-logos-openSUSE-Aeon. Apply and you’re done.

Hi,

Yes, I know that @malcolmlewis : I’m a regular member of the forum and I follow the evolution of the project and its derived distros. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks @JG1956 ! That was exactly what I needed to solve the main problem !

For the missing GNOME PackageKit Update Viewer icon, I found how to fix too : the /usr/share/icons/gnome folder was missing : I install gnome-icon-theme package (and its friends : -extras & -symbolic) and I got it.

Regards
