Other Filters<br />

Click the filter selection box to view the other possible filters. The selection according<br />

to Package Groups can also be used for the installation. This filter sorts the program<br />

packages by subjects in a tree structure to the left. The more you expand the branches,<br />

the more specific the selection <strong>of</strong> packages is and the fewer packages are displayed in<br />

the list <strong>of</strong> associated packages to the right.<br />

Use Search to search for a specific package. This is explained in detail in Section 2.3.1,<br />

“Installing and Removing S<strong>of</strong>tware” (page 31).<br />

Package Dependencies and Conflicts<br />

You cannot simply install any combination <strong>of</strong> s<strong>of</strong>tware packages. The different s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />

packages must be compatible. Otherwise they might interfere with each other and cause<br />

conflicts that affect the system as a whole. Therefore, you may see alerts about unresolved<br />

package dependencies or conflicts after selecting or deselecting s<strong>of</strong>tware packages<br />

in this dialog. If installing <strong>SUSE</strong> Linux for the first time or if you do not understand<br />

the alerts, read Section 2.3.1, “Installing and Removing S<strong>of</strong>tware” (page 31), which<br />

provides detailed information about the operation <strong>of</strong> the package manager and a brief<br />

summary <strong>of</strong> the s<strong>of</strong>tware organization in Linux.<br />

WARNING<br />

The s<strong>of</strong>tware preselected for installation is based on long-standing experience<br />

and is usually suitable for the needs <strong>of</strong> most newcomers and advanced home<br />

users. In general, there is no need to change anything here. However, if you<br />

decide to select or deselect any packages, you should be aware <strong>of</strong> the consequences.<br />

In particular, observe any warnings and avoid deselecting any packages<br />

<strong>of</strong> the base system.<br />

Exiting the S<strong>of</strong>tware Selection<br />

When satisfied with your s<strong>of</strong>tware selection and all package dependencies or conflicts<br />

are resolved, click Accept to apply your changes and exit the module. During the installation,<br />

the changes are recorded internally and applied later when the actual installation<br />

starts.
