openSUSE 12.2 News

Holy crap it's already at Milestone 2! I just happened to be going through my G+ Feeds and,bam, 12.2 Milestone 2 news right in my face! (Well, maybe after a bit of scrolling down, but I still wasn't expecting that)

So they finally integrated GRUB2 as the default bootloader (assuming you install from DVD) But in my case, I would need a test-bed hard drive to test it out on. I think I have one... I don't remember, it's been a long, long while since I've done anything (which is probably from all the way back of 12.1).

I am definitely interested in the release and may read more about it tomorrow. I'm hoping the themes get fixed, since I like (not lake; LOL, I'm a bit tired) dark themes (it's not as brutal on the eyes to stare at unlike the default theme). That's one of the reasons I haven't switched yet, despite 11.3 already reaching it's end of life this past January (the other is just migration issues such as getting fstab written up, aesthetics, and other miscellany in the settings and such).

I'll write more when I know more.
