openSUSE

Packages coming very soon https://openqa.opensuse.org/snapshot-changes/opensuse/Tumbleweed/diff/20250618

I had to reinstall Tumbleweed recently, and I think I made a bad choice in the installer when asked if my BIOS clock was UTC or not. Honestly, at the time, I wasn't sure.

When I boot my laptop, the clock is usually correct, but when I get back from lunch it shows 2 hours later than it really is. My timezone is UTC+2.

How do I fix this?

Following the announcement of the demise of YaST, I adapted my tumbleweed installation to the new setup by installing Myrlyn and Cockpit, and removing YaST:

sudo zypper rm -u yast*

However it’s already been a couple of times that when I zypper dup several yast packages get pulled in for installation.

Is this how it’s supposed to be? Or can I prevent this behaviour?

Thanks!

I’d like to install Leap 15.6 on an older laptop which is currently running Tumbleweed.

I have a single partition with btrfs and the standard subvolumes created during the original Tumbleweed installation.

Can I install Leap while preserving the btrfs @home subvolume? I played a bit the partitioner in expert mode but couldn’t find an obvious way.

Thanks!

Hello,

I have a fresh install of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma 6.3.5.

Every time I open an app which needs root privileges (such as myrlyn) I’m greeted by the KDE su window to enter my password. Even if I tick “Remember my password”, this does not have any effects, and the next time I’m asked for my password again.

Any idea on how to ensure the “Remember my password” setting in KDE su is honoured?

Thanks!

Hello, I'm still a noob when it comes to computers. I had a dual boot Windows 11 and OpenSuse Leap 15.6. My problem is that I was using my laptop as always and I was simply searching through internet when the system glitched. So I tried to restart my laptop, but then it showed screens with sth like Bios corrupted, blue screen etc. And then it restarted but only with Windows 11. When I check the settings partition has fully free memory, so it means that my OpenSuse is gone.

What could have gone wrong?

Sorry for the noob question and thanks for any help. I'm just really davastated.

I didn't notice this until the other post about them potentially deprecating YaST (at least putting in on maintenance mode). I figured we could use a thread to discuss other changes coming in Leap 16.

I'm lost here.

I'm using GNOME and fingerprint unlock and it works well, but when I tap the sensor too many times with the wrong finger so that I get a message telling me to use my password, I can just press escape twice and retry.

In such case, is there any way to disable fingerprint unlocking until the right password is entered?

Where is the openSUSE project rebranding currently being discussed? What’s the latest?

I'm finding a lot of threads with no replies and I'm wondering if openSUSE community congregates elsewhere or is it just a quiet community in general.
