5 Things You MUST DO After Installing OpenSUSE

[@johnnygreene4658]

Love OpenSuse with the Plasma desktop. Probably my favorite Linux distro.

[@rmcellig]

Hi Johnny! Are you still using opensuse kde? I'm torn between kde and gnome which I really like using. If I can get kde to function similar to gnome, I will switch. 😀 I've tried opensuse several times. Love the installer! It seems really solid. I'm using Ubuntu as well as Debian gnome and was thinking of trying Manjaro KDE and or gnome as well.

[@distinctjackal9016]

@@rmcellig actually you can install gnome and kde on the same copy of the distro. You can change between different desktop environment with each log in after a reboot

[@rmcellig]

@@distinctjackal9016 Are there any issues with this or does opensuse work better than other distros when installing multiple desktop environments?

Öğretmen olduğum için winehq ile akıllı tahta uygulamalarının windows versiyonlarını kullanmak zorundayım, opensuse'de winehq sorun çıkarmadı.Daha önce bu uygulamayı düzgün bir şekilde çalıştıran sadece bende manjaro olmuştu ama son güncellemeyle uygulama bozuldu ben de suseye geçtim.

Awesome vid, you def know your OpenSuse. Question about upgrading TW, I often see ppl recommend sudo zypper dup. Thoughts on that?

Yeah this is the proper way to upgrade the tumbleweed snapshot. Thanks for pointing this out I'll add some info to the article. en.opensuse.org/SDB:Upgrade_Tumbleweed

I am probably an advanced new user of openSUSE and found this video helpful. However, I have been able to accomplish most of what I needed to do, Except I have not been able to connect to my NAS. All other distros I have installed (Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Manjaro, Arch and Fedoro) have connected with no issues.

[@tvrdy3]

I have no idea what I've done but thank you!

[@keyboard_g]

Good tips. I’m against things like developer package that installs hundreds of packages that you might use one day. Many of them, like make were already installed out of the box. Keeping Tumbleweed up to date will keep you on the latest version. Also drop down terminal Yakuake is a great tool.

[@TheBlueThird]

You can configured what you want and don't want in the installer.

How good is Geko Linux rolling as my first linux distro?

What about installing a firewall? Seems that would be more important than installing snaps or flatpak repos, which need be done only when you need to install something from them. Maybe you could give an example of installing firewalld, which comes with OpenSUSE.

I know this is a 2 years old video but it is still solid as a rock info for a newbie like me when it comes to openSUSE (coming from Ubuntu and Fedora). However, why would someone want to install/enable snap if we have flatpak? I prefer it over snap as it seems to be the future of package management.

Don't forget to change the firewall zone of your internet connection to "home" (or "work"). Otherwise things that rely on specific ports being open won't work (e.g. network printers).

People listen...do NOT go through EVERY option...at least not upon initial install. Give yourself a few Saturdays, and even a few Sunday afternoons to go through all of them. Mark my words, you'll be engrossed with the number of options and you'll actually "lose time". In other words...you'll start going through all the options at say....12 noon?...and by the time you've gotten through the THEMES, ICONS, and WIDGETS options?.....it'll be 8PM! LoL! Hahahahaha!!!

[@Amaqse]

Do not ever do opi install codecs. Use codecs available in normal repo in yast instead. If you try to install codecs from pacman it will try and switch vendor for 50-60 packages. Problem is it tries to switch vendor for ENTIRE Mesa driver stack, Vulkan libraries, VLC. . . and Discord of all things. While VLC is somewhat acceptable the rest is not. Never ever switch vendor or install actual critical system drivers from some random dude repository. It is very dangerous, will fk up your system if newer official kernel happen to expect different/newer/official drivers, may lead to massive issues for gaming and it is literally pointless. Video codecs do not require modded drivers.

[@shadowrealms2676]

so what do you suggest?

[@y09297]

Nice distro but it's so slow when doing updates, installing new packages. It lacks a way to switch to a faster server, like you can do on Debian and Arch based distributions.

[@countereverything]

Yeah that's just as something you have to live with if you are not in Europe. You don't need to compulsively upgrade this every day, like every 2-4 weeks is fine, just time it well, like after you're done using it.

[@elonlothbrok5991]

@y09297 Have you ever heard of cron? It actually helps keeping you from staring at the screen waiting for the update to finish?

You can switch to a faster server, here's a list of them mirrors.opensuse.org/

[@y09297]

@@benjy288 thanks a lot! unfortunately I'm stuck on an error ("unable to create repo from ..."). I'll leave it at the defaults for now. I've finally got the system set up as I want anyway, so I'll just do updates once per month and let it take it's sweet time 😅 Cheers.-

That's an issue as well. There's no good servers in South America.

The great thing about OpenSese is you can start the installer, then go dine out for lunch and it should be done by the time you get home. Maybe. 😁⏰

[@AlOqab_]

with gecko linux its only taking 5 minutes

[@johnchilds6471]

Ys, the installer is a very powerful tool, you can configure your setup to select which partitions you want to use, make or use a separate home partition (VERY GOOD IDEA!!), mount any partition wherever you want, select what packages you want to install. set up firewall and many other settings. It's not a click one button installer. It is slower than most, but you wind up with a system set up the way you want, duel booting into windows or more linux installs. Take your time, go through all the selections, know what you want and you will wind up with a great install

First thing you do is don't install it. I've been using Linux distro's for many decades.

[@jontech5961]

Nice video - making it easier for me to decide which distro I want instead of kubuntu. One thing that is annoying as everything is your use of the phrase "go ahead", For example," We'll go ahead and download that and then go ahead and install it and after go ahead and update it while we go ahead and start something else, and go ahead to do the 4rth thing while all that other stuff is going to go ahead and finish up". Absolutely, ridiculous. Understand how habit forming some phrases are, but on KZbin and patreon videos you should curb your enthusiasm to use them repeatedly in every or every other sentence as it becomes annoying to the viewer.

Imagine being that much of a language pedant. It does not matter in the slightest, nor does make it "difficult to listen to." You are just annoyed personally. Also, it does add to what he's saying. It is perfectly acceptable to use a redundant phrase for emphasis. Saying "do X," and "go ahead and do X" mean the same thing, but the latter emphasizes it. Why do you feel the need to require the Queen's English in an informal environment, Mr. 'Better English than thou'? Save your fingers. Type less.

[@berniesutton7277]

@dkimbe there's no emphasis by saying "go ahead" 84 times in one presentation. As you said, it's redundant, i.e., unnecessary

[@dkimbe]

@@berniesutton7277 In informal speech, one is allowed to be redundant. Whether he adds "go ahead" or not, it is completely acceptable. You may as well say: 'he should cut down and edit literally every single word he says till it's just what's absolutely necessary to follow along.' People don't speak in APA formatting; language doesn't work like that. You understand what he means perfectly so it doesn't matter. You're acting as if the video was made twice as long and near unintelligible, as if listening to it physically disgusts you. Coming back and just saying "it doesn't emphasize", after I've clearly pointed out that it's informal speech and doesn't matter, is not an argument.

[@TechHut]

Updates are rolled out on a continuous basis including operating system-wide upgrades. Operating systems that aren't rolling release such as Ubuntu come out with a solid version (ie 20.04) that won't have any drastic updates unless if you manually upgrade. Rolling release distributions don't usually have a version number because it's just that rolling.
