Allgemein

Base product

We tested the add-on media with the official 15.0 download DVD as base product. This official DVD5 contains about 4.5 GB software for ix86 or x86_64 computers and can be found at http://software.opensuse.org.

openSUSE-Edu Li-f-e (Linux for Education)

openSUSE Education team is proud to present openSUSE-Edu Li-f-e (Linux for Education) based on openSUSE 15.0. The image is a "hybrid" iso image, the same image can be used to burn a Live DVD or to create a Live USB stick.

The Live DVD contains KIWI-LTSP server that can be enabled even by non-technical user, it comes bundled with tons of useful applications from openSUSE Education, Build Service and Packman repositories. With the KIWI-LTSP server you can PXE(network) boot other PCs to use this live DVD without installing or modifying anything on them. Booting from hard disk again will leave those PCs as they were. (Please note that running LTSP from Live DVD/USB is meant for demo/testing purpose only, install on the hard disk to use it in production).

The aim of this DVD is to provide complete education and development resources for parents, students, teachers as well as IT admins running labs at educational institutes.

Technisch

pauker-lessons

Additional lessons for pauker can be found in the pauker-lessons package. The lessons are installed in the directory /usr/share/pauker. So you have to navigate to this directory in pauker to find them.

plutimikation

Plutimikation is a very young KDE application and has currently a low functionality. For testing reasons, we included this package nonetheless.

Kiosk-Education-Settings

The KDE-menu of the Kiosk-Education-Settings is too small. It needs to be manually enlarged. Click on the upper right corner of the KDE menu to enlarge it.
