If the above fail, then you should get some kind of error code/description which explains what went wrong. |

I am guessing you are using GNOME instead of KDE, that's why you are confused.
You can always run it with the command 'kcmshell4 kcm_grub2'. If that fails, then it's not installed. |

It should appear under ‘System Settings > Startup and Shutdown > GRUB2 Bootloader’. |

No, you can't do much. Even if you deleted the entries, the grub-mkconfig script is responsible for re-generating the entries, which in turn calls os-prober.
I guess there used to be a Windows installation there and some hidden boot files/folders have remained, thus making os-prober create this useless entry. Try reformatting the partition or manually removing these files/folders. |

I understand your point and will take care of it, but the reason for such a design is that a broken default entry is worse than an outdated one (as explained above). Thanks for your feedback! |

This is so by design. The default entry is specified by name instead of number, it's safer. Imagine having this menu:
Debian
Debian (recovery)
memtest
Windows
and you want Windows to be the default. If you specify the entry by number and another kernel pops in the menu like this:
Debian
Debian (recovery)
Debian old kernel
memtest
Windows
your default will become memtest and you'll all be like "wtf!?". Instead, specifying by name always makes sure the same entry is booted and if you want it changed, you can always do it manually.
Perhaps I should introduce an option "Specify by position in the menu" (next to the list box)? |

This is known, but thanks for reporting.
At the time of packaging libpackagekit-qt.so was available, but due to to the rolling-release system of openSUSE Factory, it was removed at some point.
Next version will address this issue. |

In short, this issue has been fixed in git, but is not yet released. I present you with a short explanation why this happens and a couple of solutions:
Explanation:
Gentoo hides the GRUB executables (grub-install, grub-mkconfig, grub-probe, grub-set-default) from the user's PATH, so technically we can't discover a GRUB installation.
Solutions:
Either compile from git,
or if you really can't wait for the next release, create symlinks to the above executables visible to the user running the following commands (as root):
Quote:
ln -s /usr/sbin/grub2-install /usr/bin/grub2-install
ln -s /usr/sbin/grub2-mkconfig /usr/bin/grub2-mkconfig
ln -s /usr/sbin/grub2-probe /usr/bin/grub2-probe
ln -s /usr/sbin/grub2-set-default /usr/bin/grub2-set-default

Removing the feature is way wrong. Users who would like it not to hide should use the system tray settings to disable auto hiding. |
