Všeobecné

Inštalačné médium

openSUSE 10.2 je na iných médiách:

For a default installation (including the KDE or GNOME desktop) in one of the following languages, you only need CDs 1-3: Czech, German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Chinese.

CDs 4 and 5 contain further language packages (Polish, Danish, Hungarian, Dutch, Bokmaal, Finnish, and Khmer). Apart from even more languages, the Add-On CD also contains additional language packages for OpenOffice.org and and KOffice, spell checkers for various languages, specialized fonts, and tools for Korean and other Asian languages.

Availability of Manuals

Find the PDF versions of the manuals on the DVD in the directory docu. Find the HTML version of the manuals in the following packages on the DVDs:

If you install openSUSE from CDs, the HTML version of the manual packages is not installed by default. In this case, you can install the packages from our FTP tree (see section Adding Extra Installation Sources During Installation). After you have installed the packages, the manuals are also available in the Help Centers of your desktop.

Adding Extra Installation Sources During Installation

After setting up the update configuration at the end of the installation, YaST offers to add the following three installation sources, also called "catalogs":

The source RPMs for "oss" are available at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/src-oss, the source RPMs for "non-oss" are available at http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/src-non-oss.

New Software Management Tools: zypper and opensuseupdater

10.2 introduces a new set of lightweight software management tools for use even without the ZENWorks Management Daemon (ZMD) running:

Zmeny spokené s aplikáciou Firefox 2

Prechod u Firefoxu z verzie 1.5 na verziu 2 je veľký skok. Detailné informácie nájdete v oficiálnych poznámkach k vydaniu na stránkach http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/2.0/releasenotes/. Všimnite si najmä tieto zmeny:

Nový balík wodim pre zápis na optické disky (CD a DVD)

Balík "cdrecord" bol vyradený z distribúcie. Nový balík "wodim" je jeho náhradou a môžete ho použiť pre ukladanie dát alebo vytvorenie zvukových kompaktných diskov na napalovačke kompaktných diskov, ktorá spĺňa špecifikáciu Orange Book, resp. na napaľovanie DVD médií na DVD napaľovačke.

Alternatively use growisofs for writing DVDs. The graphical front-ends handle this transparently.

The OpenSync Synchronization Framework

For synchronizing mobile devices, the OpenSync suite replaces multisync. For more information, read the "Mobility" part of the Reference manual.

Add-On Medium with Additional Languages

Include the language add-on medium in your list of installation sources if you want better support for one of our tier 2 languages. Tier 2 languages are all those other than the tier 1 languages (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, simplified and traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Czech). Support for tier 1 languages is available on the standard media set.

You can also achieve better support for additional languages when registering additional installation sources at the end of the installation. Just activate the first item of the list of sources to register.

Aktualizácia

Configuration of CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System)

The update of CUPS from version 1.1 to 1.2 includes incompatible changes. It is not possible to convert the printer configuration from the previous CUPS versions automatically. Use the YaST printer setup ("Hardware" -> "Printer") to reconfigure the printing system.

For reference, check the saved configuration files:

/etc/cups/classes.conf.rpmsave

/etc/cups/printers.conf.rpmsave

Technické

Bežné jadro.

Balík kernel-default obsahuje štandartné jadro jednak pre systémy s jedným procesorom ako aj pre multiprocessrové systémy. V jadre je podpora SMP a beží s minimálnou réžiou na jednoprocesorových systémoch. Preto sa už nedodáva balík kernel-smp.

The New Default File System: ext3

The YaST partitioner now defaults to create new file systems using the ext3 file system, replacing reiserfs. The ext3 file system is known for its backward compatibility with the ext2 file system.

The high performance directory hashing option is enabled by default. This feature uses hashed b-trees to locate directory entries. By not requiring the entire directory to be read, this accelerates lookups in large directories dramatically. Although it is not recommended, the administrator can disable this feature by removing the "dir_index" option in the YaST partitioner.

Setting Up LVM with YaST

Experts can now rely on YaST for configuring LVM (Logical Volume Manager). Find detailed information in the Reference manual, Chapter "Advanced Disk Setup".

SMART Disk Monitoring Daemon (smartd)

The SMART Disk Monitoring Daemon (smartd) now also supports SATA hard disks without the "-d ata" switch. Status notification is given through powersavenotify. smartd is not enabled by default. To enable it, start the YaST runlevel editor ("System" -> "System Services (Runlevel)") and check the smartd service.

For more information, see the smartd man page.

BIOS RAID Supported During Installation

BIOS RAID is now supported during installation. Activate it in the BIOS and run a default installation.

Booting Multiple Instances of openSUSE on One System

If multiple instances of openSUSE 10.2 are installed on one machine and the instance in partition 2 is booted from the GRUB in partition 1, the entry in menu.lst in partition 1 for partition 2 should contain the entry:

kernel /boot/vmlinuz

initrd /boot/initrd

instead of

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.2-23-default

initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18.2-23-default

With this change, it is safe to update the kernel in partition 2 and the system can still be booted from partition 1.

GRUB or LILO Left Over in the MBR from a Previous Installation

If you update an older SUSE Linux installation that wrote GRUB or LILO into the master boot record (MBR) of your disk, it is now replaced by a generic MBR automatically if possible.

If the GRUB or LILO in the MBR does not belong to the partition you are reinstalling or if you want to keep the old behavior, change the setting for the boot loader location in YaST (System -> Boot Loader -> Boot Loader Installation -> Boot Loader Location). As a permanent solution for multiple Linux systems on one computer, we suggest using a generic MBR that loads a master GRUB or a similar boot selector, which is able to chain load operating system loaders from various partitions.

Changing Boot Loader Location

Changes of the boot loader location in an already installed system are not detected by YaST and the script that re-installs the boot loader code is not executed. The workaround is to change the boot loader location, then select "Other" -> "Write bootloader boot code to disk" explicitly.

Zmeny spojené s X.org dôležité pre vývojárov

Grafický systém X.Org je nainštalovaný v adresári /usr. Preto budú niektoré programy potrebovať upraviť. Ak odkazujete na fonty adresárom, ako napr. XEP, je nutné zmeniť tento adresár na /usr/share/fonts.

Nové možnosti správy napájania

Sada aplikácií okolo suspend už nevykonáva démon powersaved ale nástroj pm-utils. Touto zmenou prestávajú byť funkčné niektoré parametre v súbore /etc/powersave/sleep. Preto musíte od teraz nastavovať suspend v súbore /etc/pm/config. Viac informácií získate na srákach http://en.opensuse.org/Pm-utils.

Booting Systems with HPET Timer Problems

On some NVIDIA nForce 5 motherboards (in particular from ASUS) or others that do not support a HPET timer, proper booting might require the acpi_use_timer_override kernel option at the boot prompt.
