Upgrade to 13.1

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

Opensuse 12/3
KDE

I am planning to do the upgrade and was reading the upgrade instructions and came across these steps:

As an example, we will be showing upgrade from 12.3 to 13.1 here:

  • Take a look at all repos you havezypper lr
    and remove all third party/OBS repos you no longer need# zypper rr <alias>

How do I tell which 3rd party/OBS I no longer need ?
This is what zypper is telling me:

[FONT=Verdana]#  | Alias                       | Name                               | Enabled | Refresh

Safest to disable all 3rd party stuff

Are you planning on doing the upgrade via Internet ie zypper dup or are you doing it off line via DVD?

If by zypper dup

remove or at least fully disable all but 7,11,12,14,15 These will need changed to point to the 13.1 repos

I had planned to do it via zypper.

All.

The safest is just to have active only oss, non-oss, and updates. Leave
packman out, till after the upgrade. Maybe, just maybe, include nvidia
or ati repos.
