[Minor improvement to README] Add instructions for openSUSE #330

Closed rdrms closed 2 years ago

rdrms commented 2 years ago

Hi, I tried the instructions for Fedora and they got me most of the way there, but kernel-devel-uname -r returned no package found since the output of the uname command was "5.15.5-1-default", I am pretty sure it installed kernel-devel which is just a generic package that points at or is updated to the current kernel.

I think you would be fine with this line:

sudo zypper install dkms make bluez bluez-tools kernel-devel kernel-source

but kernel-source (which includes the headers) might only get you halfway there, just to be sure I installed the pattern "devel_kernel" which is installed this way:

sudo zypper in -t pattern devel_kernel

All on one line, this would be:

sudo sh -c 'zypper install -t pattern "devel_kernel" && zypper install dkms make bluez bluez-tools kernel-devel'

I'll have to test in a VM later today and update the issue. But it's working great here!

OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Kernel: 5.15.5 disable_ERTM: not required

Yep, we should probably remove that uname thing since usually there's an unversioned meta-package available which pulls in the kernel-specific package. Feel free to submit a PR if you found a working solution.

My bad, I was unclear. I think the install instructions work for Fedora, but I am using openSUSE and used the Fedora instructions as a starting point. The above commands use zypper, which is the openSUSE (Tumbleweed, Leap) package manager and don't have anything to do with Fedora except using .rpm files.

I'm testing it in a vm to see if the first command is enough to build the module, or if you need the full "devel_kernel" pattern.
