Q&A Section
| Your Name | Question/Comment |
|---|---|
| marccollin | does java 1.6 will be the default jre in suse 10.3? |
| alaniemi | Should Beryl-packages be included in 10.3 ? Is Beryl enough stable to replace Compiz in 10.3? |
| marccollin | does boot time will be improved? mandriva, fedora is faster... any way to get close to arch? |
| Tom1200 | Is it possible to solve the legal problems with multimedia codecs (mp3 etc.) via Fluendo (http://www.fluendo.com/press/releases/PR-2007-01.html)? Maybe full support in the commercial openSUSE box?
|
| Nine | Now that package management again works as it should, is a solution in sight for upgraders to use a DVD as base and the FTP source for the packages not included on the DVD? |
| TheJPN | Could the JAD (or some other music/multimedia orientated) audio distribution specific kernel and applications be selectable at install time? If not from the distribution CD/DVD, then from an optional separate CD/DVD or downloadable packages. |
| Tobias__ | Will openSUSE 10.3 contain also GCC 4.2 packages; if yes and not instead of 4.1.x, will there be also BLAS/LAPACK etc. packages for GCC 4.2 [the Fortran ABI changed and GCC 4.2 is nice as it offers e.g. OpenMP and a more-stable Fortran compiler]. |
| SgT | Consider replacing SLAB menu in 10.3, because it's not confortable |
| Djurodrljaca | Could you implement parallel starting services in 10.3? |
| duggum | Are there plans to refine the Patterns for 10.3? Some of the packages currently included in some patterns don't make much sense, such as Firefox being a non-optional requirement for the X11 pattern, or OpenOffice in KDE/Gnome patterns. Also, will future pattern organisation make package removal less intimidating? By this I am referring to the current need to wade through many dependency warnings about breaking patterns if you choose to not install some packages such as OpenOffice. To the uninformed this gives the impression they are breaking their installation, rather than merely violating a pattern requirement. I would suggest that the pattern warnings be made to stand out from true broken dependency warnings. |
