1 SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop

SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop is the market's only enterprise-quality Linux desktop ready for routine business   use. Developed and backed by SUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop provides market-leading usability, seamless   interoperability with existing IT systems, and dozens of essential applications—all at a fraction   of the price of proprietary operating systems. It comes bundled with the latest versions of   leading applications such as LibreOffice office productivity suite, Mozilla Firefox web browser,   and Evolution e-mail and calendar suite. In addition, it integrates with Microsoft SharePoint and   Novell Teaming for group collaboration and supports a wide range of multimedia file formats,   wireless and networking standards, and plug-and-play devices.

Through the latest enhancements in power management and security, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop also provides   an environmentally friendly IT experience (Green IT) and an error-proof desktop. Finally,   SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop offers unparalleled flexibility. You can deploy it on a wide range of thick client   devices (including desktops, notebooks, netbooks, and workstations), on thin client devices, or   as a virtual desktop. By leveraging the power of SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, your business can dramatically   reduce costs, improve end user security and increase workforce productivity.

    SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 has a 7 years life cycle.The current version (GA) will be fully maintained and supported until 6 monthsafter the release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 SP1.    

1.1 What's New?
NoteNote: Fix Status of the GNU Bourne Again Shell (bash)

   Given the proximity of the SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 release to the publication of    the shellshock series of vulnerabilities in the GNU    Bourne Again Shell (bash), we want to provide customers with    information on the fix status of the bash version shipped in the    SLE 12 GA release:  

  • CVE-2014-6271 (original shellshock)    

  • CVE-2014-7169 (taviso bug)    

  • CVE-2014-7186 (redir_stack bug)    

  • CVE-2014-7187and    

  • non-exploitable CVE-2014-6277      

  • non-exploitable CVE-2014-6278

   Up-to-date information is available online: https://www.suse.com/support/shellshock/.  

    SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 introduces a number of innovative     changes. Here are some of the highlights:    

  •       Robustness on administrative errors and improved management       capabilities with full system rollback based on btrfs as the       default file system for the operating system partition and SUSE's       snapper technology.      

  •       An overhaul of the installer introduces a new workflow that allows you       to register your system and receive all available maintenance updates       as part of the installation.      

  •       New core technologies like systemd, replacing the time honored       System V based init process.      

  •       GNOME 3.10, giving users a modern desktop environment with a       choice of several different look and feel options, including a       special SLE Classic mode for easier migration from earlier SUSE       Linux Enterprise desktop environments      

  •       For users wishing to use the full range of productivity       applications of a Desktop with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, we       are now offering the SUSE Linux Enterprise Workstation Extension      

  •       Integration with the new SUSE Customer Center, SUSE's central web       portal to manage Subscriptions, Entitlements, and provide access       to Support.      

For users upgrading from a previous SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop release it is recommended to review:
