So only OSS, Non-OSS, both Update Repos for the 2 Repos and Packman.

These 5 repos are necessary.

Pls clear me more thisā€¦
Which are the 5 Repos that I need?
Iā€™ve lost one [estracted from previous log] of the 5:

Maybe someone is saying you do not need the Packman Repo, but that depends on if you want all codes or not.

I donā€™t need binary codes, if is this that you meanā€¦

Tnx

Those 4 repositories are the essential ones and are the ones I currently have enabled on the system Iā€™m writing from.
In theory there is a ā€œNON-OSS update repositoryā€ at https://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed-non-oss/ but it currently offers only test packages and I doubt that it will ever offer anything else (I cannot imagine a non-oss package that is critical enough to be provided through the update channel and not via the regular snapshots).
So for the time being, keep those 4 repos and disable the others. Then with an upgraded system you will be able to experiment again if you wish.

I donā€™t need binary codes, if is this that you meanā€¦

Probably a typing error, Packman offers ā€œCODECSā€ essential to play most audio and video formats.

Codecs are stored as binary codesā€¦ :wink:

Ciao!

Thanks to all! :smiley:

All seems to work fine :slight_smile:

Great!
