Every tool here is not only exceptionally useful but works quite well. The user and group manager is top notch for managing such things. Recently, the Boot Loader module has become even more useful as of late by allowing you to select your CPU Mitigation posture. Since there are so many tools, it makes for a rather lengthy, albeit well organized, list of modules.
This is essentially the same system tool that manages the installation of openSUSE so it is highly improbable that this tool will ever get neglected. Whether you run a Qt, GTK or Terminal only based system, you can access the same tool with all the same powerful features. From bow to stern, YaST is clearly a well designed, well engineered, flexible tool that does not get the credit it deserves.
By far this is the best package manager I have ever used. This is the package manager that is like an agent that works for your success. If you are coming from the Debian world, you can use APT just as you would and there are aliases already built in to direct you to the equivalent Zypper action but with the Zypper refinements.
When doing an installation or upgrade, the clarity of your interactions with the system is the best I have used. I use Tumbleweed primarily and when you are pulling down updates it is very useful to know what is being installed, upgraded, removed and additional notifications about actions post install, like requiring a reboot to take advantage of a new kernel.
Zypper provides a very comprehensive summary of any actions and if there are any conflicts you are presented with a list of options where you direct Zypper how to proceed.
Like any wiki, sometimes the information does need a new coat of polish and when I come across something, I do try to take the time to fix it. I have used the wiki a lot and because I have gained so much value in the wiki, I have felt compelled to continue to add what little I know into it as I know that when I need that information again, I and many others can refer to it.
It is great to see that openSUSE has made it a point to make knowledge management an priority. It is most certainly an important for users to get answers and guidance for a variety situations. The logo and everything around logo is a welcoming friendliness that is unmatched. When you see that logo, it is unmistakably [open]SUSE, it is not at any risk in being confused with anything else.
I even appreciate merchandising of that logo into plush toys to begin the introduction of openSUSE to my children at a young age. The openSUSE community is an extremely helpful and friendly group of people. I have had numerous instances where people in the community have helped me solve problems, even built software packages so that I could get a thing working.
Should you have to report a bug, the community members work with you to get the problems resolved. You will not only help the project but will also learn something in the process. It is a very efficient tool, and is fully documented on their official website. Btrfs is the default filesystem in openSUSE. For example, if you run a system upgrade using zypper dup. And something broke and you no longer can enter your system, you can easily go back to the previous system state before the upgrading process occurred.
All your files and configurations will be restored to that specific time. Just like a system restore point in Windows. Skip to content. Table of Contents. Join the discussion. Anderson March 29, Even the openSuSE venerable Yast toolset that originated more than ten years ago is exceedingly useful and efficient in performing critical tasks that require multiple add-ons for the others.
Documentation is clear and to-the-point, and when combined with openSuSE Forums are infinitely helpful to any class of user. Redhat is a proud American company, and Canonical, owners of Ubuntu have earned an enviable reputation as the first Linux distribution to effectively target and concentrate Linux for the PC desktop and mobile markets.
While I am pleased that Redhat, SuSE and Ubuntu as standout distributions for Enterprise Class computing, and others on smaller scale are all successful, the test for me has been the many years of significant Linux use, on day-to-day basis in business applications delivery, software development and personal PC Linux use with openSuSE Tumbleweed - a great end user rolling release distro, that make the SuSE products stand out, even if subtly for me but not readily evident or appreciated to most others.
Hanny Sabbagh March 29, Anderson This article was poignant and very interesting in. That's a great perspective to hear, thanks for sharing! Camm April 7, I remember it being annoying with networking for example.
Anderson May 11, LiberNovus April 11, Networking is fine and in my experience. But I guess that depends on what you are trying to achieve with system tools and how you deploy them, as would be the case in any other system?
LiberNovus Networking is fine and in my experience. Also the. This is now by default, and you can even select it in the Yast installer.
Great distro. I praise Dell's XPS 13 for good reason. But as it became my daily driver, certain cracks in the armor started to appear. Both Ubuntu It's not a complicated fix, but you've probably realized I'm a "it needs to work out of the box" guy. It gets better though. This may be because TLP -- a service that runs in the background to optimize everything influencing battery life -- is included. My understanding is that's not the case with Ubuntu or elementary OS, and the developers have their reasons for not bundling it.
For me, however, it's a default inclusion that I appreciate not having to add on my own. My XPS 13 is now truly an all-day work device and I'm never concerned about being close to the charger. My next steps will be really putting Tumbleweed through the paces in my daily work routine.
That's going to include podcasting on it, video editing and some benchmarking as well oh, on the Threadripper x system, not the XPS 13!
Installer snag aside, I'm having a great time with this one. Stay tuned and thanks as always for following my Linux journey! This is a BETA experience. You may opt-out by clicking here. More From Forbes.
