• openSUSE säger hej då till sitt gamla välkomstfönster

    Snart säger den gröna geckon hej på ett nytt sätt. Med opensuse-welcome-launcher samordnar openSUSE skrivbordens egna välkomstrundor i stället för att lita på autostart. Det ger en mer enhetlig introduktion – både vid första start och efter stora uppgraderingar – samtidigt som gammalt Qt5-bagage städas ut.

    Nästan alla som installerat en Linuxdistribution har mötts av ett litet välkomstfönster – en ruta som dyker upp direkt efter installationen och säger “Hej, här är några saker du kan göra nu”. För vissa är det praktiskt, för andra mest ett irritationsmoment.

    I openSUSE har det här fönstret länge varit den välkända “Ahoy, this is openSUSE”-rutan. Men nu är det snart historia.

    En ny start

    Utvecklarna har tagit fram opensuse-welcome-launcher, en ny lösning som fungerar som dirigent mellan olika välkomstprogram beroende på vilken skrivbordsmiljö du använder – GNOME eller KDE Plasma.

    Istället för att varje program startar på egen hand, bestämmer launchern vad som ska visas och när. Den kan också plocka fram välkomstfönstret inte bara vid första uppstarten, utan även efter större systemuppdateringar – så att användarna snabbt får koll på vad som är nytt.

    Förändringen sker i etapper

    För att inte riva plåstret direkt görs övergången stegvis:

    1. Till att börja med används fortfarande det gamla välkomstfönstret, men utan kryssrutan “visa vid nästa uppstart”.
    2. Sedan börjar launchern starta specialanpassade versioner av GNOME Tour och Plasma Welcome, med det gamla verktyget kvar som reserv.
    3. Till sist försvinner den gamla Qt5-baserade rutan helt, när man hittat en lösning för de skrivbordsmiljöer som saknar eget välkomstprogram.

    Mer än bara ett nytt fönster

    För openSUSE betyder det här inte bara ett nytt sätt att hälsa på användarna. Det är också ett steg mot att fasa ut det gamla Qt5-ramverket, som bara används av ett fåtal program i distributionen idag.

    Med andra ord: openSUSEs gröna gecko säger fortfarande “hej” – men snart i en modernare form, mer integrerad med skrivbordet och utan gammalt tekniskt bagage.

    Teknisk faktaruta

    openSUSE – Nytt i välkomstupplevelsen

    • Ny komponent: opensuse-welcome-launcher samordnar välkomstprogram.
    • Skrivbordsspecifikt: väljer gnome-tour (GNOME) eller plasma-welcome (KDE Plasma) per session.
    • Central styrning: timing och visning styrs av launchern i stället för varje apps autostart.
    • Efter uppdateringar: kan visa välkomstflöden även efter större systemuppgraderingar.
    • Fasvis migrering:
      • Fas 1 – launchern startar legacy openSUSE Welcome; valet ”visa vid nästa uppstart” tas bort.
      • Fas 2 – openSUSE‑anpassade gnome-tour / plasma-welcome; legacy kvar som fallback.
      • Fas 3 – avveckling av Qt5‑baserade välkomstappen; överenskommen fallback för sessioner utan egen greeter.
    • Test & utrullning: bättre koppling till openQA och mer kontrollerad rollout.
    • Mindre teknisk skuld: hjälper till att fasa ut kvarvarande Qt5-beroenden i distributionen.
