[Computing, Opensuse] Upgrading to 42.3

From: andrew cooke <andrew@...>

Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2017 22:13:49 -0400 

Two gotchas:

* The NVidia drivers seem to have the same version.  So simply changing
  repos to 42.3 and updating all doesn't change anything.  You have to 
  force a reload in Yast (say).

* There's some Gnome disk scanner crap that crashes repeatedly and
  drags the machine to an almost-halt.  Google for "disable Gnome 
  tracker" for solutions.

Otherwise, seems to be fine.

Andrew

PS "zypper dup --download-in-advance" doesn't JUST download in
advance.  It then goes on to do the install.  So don't run it in an X
console and think you can switch to runlevel 3 later...

VirtualBox

From: andrew cooke <andrew@...>

Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2017 10:11:49 -0400 

5.1.26 will not run.  Bug report is at
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/16966

The work-around is to use the 5.1.27 test build from
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Testbuilds until 5.1.28 is available.
