Well, well, well. Pretty cool! It wouldn’t start the desktop until I removed my GTX 750Ti video card, but hey! I read a lot on the interweb and it seems that LEAP has a lot going for it. I was asking myself, “OK, why not take this opportunity to jump to some more “science-oriented” distro like CentOS, Fedora (or maybe even MINT), now that OS is changing majorly?”
The answer was, again, as it was in the past, the two bits of the opensuse code which have kept me from successfully jumping ship to kubuntu or MINT, say: YaST (a really big deal!!!), and the hierarchical organization of the Application Menu. Well, LEAP kept the former but has dumped the latter. Any way the latter could be reinstated for all packages?
This probably doesn’t sound like a big deal, but that menu organization actually saves a lot of brain power when fighting some problem late at night (i.e., when the coffee isn’t helping much).
Thanks for a great distro,
Patti
PS: How to install the 32-bit Package Pattern? How to install kio-sysinfo? Also, I can’t seem to figure out how to do a console login. It gives me the options of various desktops, and shutdown/reboot buttons. Where’s the console login button?
KDE - guess it’s called plasma 5. Apologies, my dyslexia is getting worse, I guess. (at 61 I guess I can claim hippocampal atrophy?) About the 32-bit version of OS - that’s not what I meant - you know, package pattern.
