#YaST

After an upgrade or an installation from scratch, we might notice a weird behavior while navigating among the streaming websites: some videos play well, others raise an error like:

The media couldn’t be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported

Some day ago I got a brand new Xerox multifunction Wi-fi printer (B215 model for the record), so what’s the best chance to test the power and the ease of use of Yast to install it? This is also my first Wi-fi printer and I was very curious to see how user-friendly was the procedure, without knowing anything about the supported protocols.

Even if the 99,9% of times all the applications released through the official repositories are reliable and perfectly working, sometime a buggy package might get installed on our systems after an update. With a few steps we can rollback to the previous version taking advantage of the feature made available by package managers and repositories.

Sometimes error messages can result in more scared than they are, especially those strictly related to the boot loading. In that situation, when the error message is not much clear, we wrongly assume that a clean reinstallation is the only solution.
