Any ETA for Gnome 47?

@romeo_72 Hi and welcome to the Forum :smile:
It was pushed to GNOME:Factory a couple of days ago, I suspect it won’t be long before it gets pushed to openSUSE:Factory for staging and openQA etc.

I added the gnome:next repo and try a zypper in -t pattern gnome (and gnome-X11…) but i can’t log in any gnome (classic, x11, wayland…) from sddm.

Is there a special command for install the gnome 47?

Is it incompatible with the 6.10 kernel (can’t dup to 6.11 yet) ?

@zanagraf Not a good idea… that is unstable… remove and wait a few days…

While I know that might sound arrogant: if you have to ask for the command to install GNOME 47, you better should wait a few more days. I have it running here on my machine and it needed some tinkering to resolve dependency issues and even when I got it to run, I had a nasty problem with GNOME Online Accounts and my Google Account which could only be resolved by trashing all my keyrings. So it’s definitely not recommended to use the (unstable) GNOME:Next packages as a daily driver.

It’s not arrogant, it’s pragmatic!

I know i miss some zypper learning yet, and old docs don’t help me so much…

I know the how to set up a DE (zypper in -t pattern gnome gnome-desktop gnome-x11…)

All in gnome:next (now factory) repo.

But as i try many times i mean it came from the actual conflict between new kernel and proprietary Nvidia driver.

I downgrade my driver to 550 as it could be easier, came back to x11 from Wayland, remove all gnome install… But…

I’ll wait for final “official” repo^^ then i’ll be happy to retrieve gnome^^

I was wondering about Gnome 47 and when it will arrive or if there are issues.
The last few Gnome Versions landed in Tumbleweed within days.

@zanagraf remember there are supporting packages that live in Tumblweed from other development repositories, so they need to appear in Tumbleweed first for GNOME to go further in the process. As you have discovered, better to wait :wink:

There are actually issues with the GNOME 47 packages. Yesterday there was an update on the Mailing List.
