I tried the Leap 42.2 Beta distribution.
When I type “uname -a” on a Konsole, I obtain :
Linux linux-5xdi 4.4.19-1-default #1 SMP Fri Aug 26 14:09:03 UTC 2016 (669e7ae) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have a problem with my webcam :
When I type “lsusb” I obtain :

In my notification bar on the desktop, when I click on software update, there is an error :
Network is offline.
Could you help me ?

Hi, welcome to test 42.2 beta!
I checked on my 42.2 KDE install and your webcam should be supported by the gspca_ov519 kernel module, so it should be recognized and engaged.
Unfortunately, I see no KDE webcam application in 42.2 yet: maybe I missed it (I’m not a KDE fan) or you have to wait for 42.2 beta3 where a new KDE lineup is expected AFAIK. My webcam works OK with Gnome and Cheese though.
Please be more specific about your problem if you need more help.
WRT Update, maybe you have to check your internet connection; anyway be aware that no update (other than update stack test) is available yet in this beta.
If you want something more “current”, you have to subscribe to the 42.2-Current repo:
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2-Current/
Hope this helps.
Hi, if you are still reading please be aware that while we were writing this Leap 42.2 beta2 has been released.
If you want to take advantage of the newer packages the safest way is the following.
Open a console (e.g. by Ctrl+Alt+F1) and login as root; then, assuming that you have configured only the default repositories, issue the following commands:
systemctl start multi-user.target
zypper ref
zypper dup
Go make coffee, when the system is done updating (some 1200 packages, about 1GB to download) reboot and enjoy Plasma 5.7.95 (AKA 5.8beta).
Or download the new DVD http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2-Beta2/iso/openSUSE-Leap-42.2-DVD-x86_64-Build0193-Media.iso and upgrade offline.
Hello,
I have switch to Leap 42.1 as you suggest. The Update of software in KDE is available.
But for my webcam I have the same issue.
When I open the application Wxcam, I have one popup with the next message :
Cannot open /dev/video0.
Verify if your system has the correct module for your webcam else change it in
the menu /menu/preferences.
But my webcam is well detected by my system.
Here is the result of my request (I underline my webcam model) :
