The [WayBack] Interactive map of Linux kernel is way better than the static versions below that I got via
[WayBack] Interactive map of the Linux kernel subsystems. A little bit beyond what is required to use Linux. But great for those who want a deeper understanding of the kernel. – Joe C. Hecht – Google+

I had zypper being confused about the dist-upgrade between these snapshots:
< CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20171125"
---
> CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20171129"
It ran into this:
Problem: libopenssl-1_0_0-devel-1.0.2m-1.1.x86_64 conflicts with libopenssl-devel > 1.0.2m provided by libopenssl-devel-1.1.0g-1.1.noarch
Based on [WayBack] Re: [opensuse-factory] openssl dependency problems with snapshot 2017112 after discussing with DimStar, I choose to have zypper dist-upgrade to perform
deinstallation of libopenssl-1_0_0-devel-1.0.2m-1.1.x86_64
Now all is fine.
Thanks Dominique a.k.a. DimStar!

SuSEconfig has been dead for a while, but still indexed at quite a few of the official sites stressing the importance to use it.
It used to apply the configuration in /etc/sysconfig to the system.
The rationale for removal was simple:
Let’s remove all SuSEconfig scripts since only YaST calls SuSEconfig but other tools like rpm and zypper do not call it.
If scripts are needed, they need to be invoked as part of the postinstall.
Now most services either know to directly handle the configuration data there (and apply it during reload/restart/start of the service), or have a tool (like postfix now has /usr/sbin/config.postfix) to apply the settings.

Via [WayBack] Scott Hanselman @shanselman: Excellent blog post from Jessica on how to setup the best Linux on Windows environment! @jldeen:
[WayBack] Badass Terminal: FCU WSL Edition (oh-my-zsh, powerlevel9k, tmux, and more!)
It’s that time again! The time to write another epic blog post, this time for WSL, also known as Windows Subsystem for Linux.
It requires Windows 10 Version 1709 (Fall_Creators_Update) which has build number 10.0.16299.

Interesting as it has steps for both OpenSuSE and Debian each well suited for running on a Raspberry Pi.

It seems postfix is a lot easier to configure than sendmail so I already like it.
First I need to read a bit more in Postfix greylisting.

Learned a few things when modifying https://github.com/gkotian/gautam_linux/blob/master/scripts/colours.sh
Note: `printf` supports emitting `ESC` (ASCII character `\033` aka `27` aka `0x1B`)as `\e` the same way that `echo` does https://linux.die.net/man/1/printf https://linux.die.net/man/1/echo Format strings are at https://linux.die.net/man/3/printf %-10s means left adjusted (aligned) string of length 10

I was investigating how the colour definitions on my OpenSuSE system actually work internally so I added some extra output: ${TYPE} and ${COLOUR}.

A while ago I wrote about -bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8) on fresh Raspbian on Raspberry
I thought my locale issues were solved and they sort of were. Until I had to logon locally and managed to get one or more of these characters in my password:
Then logon would fail locally but work via ssh. Go figure!
Lot’s of people outside the UK using their Raspberry Pi with keyboard and monitor will now say: you’ve the default GB keyboard layout and your keyboard is not GB.
Bingo!
This is how US keys look when using a GB keyboard layout:

Not sure what do do now. Some searches didn’t reveal much:
