Do you mean because of having to build your system first then write out the config via autoyast? To then use the config next time you install?
If that is the an issue then MicroOS is probably a better option for someone, they have a config builder to insert, so at first boot the system installs itself.
Nice. But just a note nixOS and MicroOS both have config files so you can replicate an exact install. OpenSUSE has autoyast so you can define a system and port that to your next install.
That is a lot. Does Ubuntu have patch listing? With zypper on openSUSE it can list you security patches and their status of critical, recommended, not needed etc and you can just update patches and not every update to the repo.
What distro is that?
Comes down to flatpak not really being part of your holistic system. And thus permissions.
In theory yes. But as an insider to a company that sells proprietary software…also no. LOL.
They build a lot of their stuff on top of opensource code. There has been the exact same exploits as open source projects, and even a few malware intrusions from either some devs deliberate sabotage or infected machine. Not every giant corporation is checking in depth like you assume they should be, they go on trust to save shareholder profits and if they do an external audit and its a zero day nobody* is catching it.
*there was that one a while back in an unrelated project where the only reason it was caught was a dev nerd noticed the very slight delay in network response compared to previous version. So caught by human feels wrong and not a diff of git
Maybe grab parallel disks usage from https://github.com/KSXGitHub/parallels disks usage
You can run from root and see what’s hogging space
I forget the commands but there is something like btrfs scrub or something that will prune or purge unnecessary data. But also is your /home on the same snapshot fs. Like when you do a df -h do you see same root fullness as home fullness? A full home also fills root, if they are same btrfs volume.
I know you are drive mounting into home, I assume after the fact and not part of initial lvm setup. You could try unmounting and sew homes true size compared to root
The system will always boot to a writable snapshot, unless you chose an old one (which becomes read only) If you have the 835 as a single snapshot that is probably something you made a single snapshot of maybe? as they are usually in pairs.
Unless something went really odd.
Lookup tools to purge old btrfs data, but first try manually making a new snapshot. And see if it will boot to the new one on its own. If it can you can probably delete the old snapshot pairs. The singles are often a large install like original install that served as the basis for subsequent incremental changes. There could be a lot of old data it is hanging onto.
Also look at the btrfs scripts to see when they’d run, you can run the commands manually to try to cleanup and purge data
If your home partition part of the same filesystem then filling your home with games and media also shows as filling root also, because its all one volume.
If you don’t like CLI stuff then: You can review grub menu options in the YAST2 GUI app for boot. Here you will see if there is a delay set to pick an alternate snapshot, or boot direct.
But first use YAST2 GUI to review Filesystem, it will show you how many snap shots you have and whether they are important or not. You can also set how long to keep them by time or by number of entries. You can delete old ones if you don’t need them. You can force a new snapshot. But I would clear disk space first if you are that full.
It is possible the normal btrfs maintenance tools didn’t run for some reason, but usually all the backnd cleanup of that is handled by the system.
How have your " sudo zypper dup" upgrades gone?
Yes, Microsoft is already selling these
lOpensuse is systemd and btrfs, never had an issue with btrfs recovery. But if you have deets I’d be interested.
Yep on mobile I could select the blackouts and do a copy paste into a note app.
Yeah, my European relatives earn less than us, but they are always traveling to other countries and going on local trips, while we are just getting by week to week
Because a CEO hears MS or googles release statements and assumes that good stuff and tells next level down to implement a plan. They are mandated to do something and so start grasping for junk. And force it on lower levels.
The work around it you set your networks to metered, it won’t install updates.
Then in updates menu you hit pause updates then unpause updates, it will check for all app updates and show you a list with “download and install” button next to each. You choose the ones you want.
With non metered networks, it will just force them all on you with no granularity
Yeah,SUSE too. There’s even some that just offer Linux help regardless of distro
Because its a phone number substitution set. You type by the letters on the dial pad but if fills in numbers for the phone number.
Good point
