Hi all,
I've had a successfully running Opensuse 12.1 machine for the past 2+ years. I am starting to find that some packages aren't as well supported any more and need to upgrade.
In the past I've always done a clean install via dvd. These days however I am pressed for time and was considering an update by just changing repositories and doing a upgrade via zypper -dup. Is this a really bad idea? I haven't followed development in Opensuse land for the past 2 years so I don't know how much has changed. Any guidance would be appreciated.
btw my machine is an Asus A7k laptop.
