Installing Gnome 3.12 from stable repository for OpenSUSE 13.1

2

I installed (upgrading) Gnome 3.12 from a stable repository for OpenSUSE 13.1, I follow this:

sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/STABLE:/3.12/openSUSE_13.1/ GNOME
sudo zypper dup

When the installation finishes this warning came in the terminal:

There are some running programs that use files deleted by recent upgrade. You may wish to restart some of them. Run 'zypper ps' to list these programs.

I ran zypper ps and the list has a lot of processes. I reboot my computer, but now the system not start, not start Logon screen.

What can I do to solve this? What did I do wrong?

@sayth, I don't know. :( Took so long for an answer on this site that I went back to install the system with Gnome 3.10. – OSjerick – 2014-07-10T13:53:28.307

So if in boot process you use ctrl+alt+f1 and go to shell.login and type startx what error do you get? – sayth – 2014-06-01T06:13:33.133

I actually had the very same problem.
I did

zypper dist-upgrade --from "name of the gnome 3.12 repository"


in your case

zypper dist-upgrade --from GNOME

Now openSuSE and Gnome 3.12 is working.
