OpenSUSE 13.1: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 22:34, 4 December 2020

THIS RELEASE IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED

This release was an Evergreen release, however supported has stopped and this release should be considered discontinued.

This was the Linux distribution my server was based on. More information is available here.

If you are looking to install openSUSE, you should consider installing openSUSE Leap 15.6, the latest version.

If you are still looking to install openSUSE 13.1, there are more details in obtaining openSUSE 13.1.

Installation notes

If you turn the firewall off during the installation, the firewall will not stay off even though it says it will. Solution: Wait until openSUSE has installed and during configuration, turn it off again. Alternatley, turn the firewall off with YaST after installation and also disallow it from starting at startup.
CrashPlan will need OpenJDK uninstalled (requiring a few Libreoffice extensions to be uninstalled also). Download the latest JRE from Oracle to make it work. You will also need to include a line in /usr/local/crashplan/bin/run.conf. See CrashPlan client closes in some Linux installations.
CrashPlan will also need the memory allocation changing if backing up more than 1TB. In the same file as above, find -Xmx512 and change to at least -Xmx1024 or more (Recommended: -Xmx2048), otherwise CrashPlan will run out of memory and keep restarting without backing up.

Information

openSUSE 13.1 was released on 19th November 2013. It is an open-source distribution and is free of charge. It is developed by the community and sponsored by Novell.
