Why haven't you tried it yet?
How is Tumbleweed compared to Arch/Antergos?
>>54879019
I have tried it once! rally liked it. KDE buggy tho...
>>54879032
In Arch you have to compile your shit and even fuck up your system. Forget that with Tumbleweed
>falling fot the arch meme
>>54879019
it black screens on me. skylake ftw
Never trust a distro with KDE as its default desktop environment.
>>54879168
it does that to me. also the same with debian/mint/kali
>>54879032
Tumbleweed has a more extensive testing system, and despite being bleeding-edge is actually quite stable.
>>54879032
Haven't tried Arch, but Tumbleweed is pretty nice, more or less stable releases of the latest software and it only fucks up once every few months (and it usually only takes ~5 minutes to fix)
at some point when i was updating to 13.something it suddenly derped with my radeon drivers, so every boot was ending in kernel panic or something close to that
also the repo seems updating slowly, i had trouble setting up ant for compiling with android ndk
but still I plan to use OpenSUSE at my next PC
>>54879787
It tends to derp out every now and then with NVIDIA drivers, but I haven't had a single graphics issue with the open source intel drivers.
Just make sure you don't fall for the BTRFS meme
>>54879019
Its the only os that works flawlessly on my laptop out of the box.
>>54879019
customers HDD's come in with those before we wipe them with our in-house solution.
My own choice is Windows because you can bring in most plebs for cheap work and they'll perfer the GUI before the terminal. Easier for engineering when you can point to a box vs a list and say "EVERYTHING IN THIS BOX ROUTES TO THAT BOX"
Suse you don't really get that without investing in the workers
>>54879019
No longer necessary.
Use one of the following or do not use Linux at all
>Ubuntu
>Red Hat Enterprise Linux
That's it. If you ever want the year of the Linux desktop the distros must be consolidated.

hdmi? igpu?
>>54879019
I installed it on 3 laptops and it's great on all of them.
Leap is better for me since I dont need most recent versions. Updating is annoying since I get 1MB/s until my pipe is upgraded in a few weeks (over 5MB/s pls pls pls).
It's also my choice for family installs.
>>54880375
>Updating is annoying
Tumbleweed updates are too often for my needs, is what I mean. Leap is great.
Just why the hell is Tubleweed update so damn slow?
Because Fedora works for me.
>>54879019
cuz fedora.
Haven't tried it since Leap hit. Last time I tried Tumbleweed that fucker panic'd on me every other time I zypper up'd so I said fuck it and went back to Debian's loving manly arms.
Is KDE still shit btw? I really liked 4 but every distro seems to have abandoned it like a prom night dumpster baby in favour of plasma.
>>54879019
It still runs on my pSeries so I guess that's alright.

gg openshit.
i love mint, its the only way to go.
>>54881486
You did :^)
>>54881495
i personally prefer debian based systems with apt, suse seems neat but ill stick with what i know best
>>54880800
German-quality bits take time

>>54879072
Youve clearly never used arch or compiled a package.
I guess I'll give it another try
>>54879861
>>54881660
don't you think for a few seconds before posting?
arch has almost no software in the official repo
they rely on the aur, which for the most part distributes source packages to compile.
fucking losers.
How does Leap compare to Debian in terms of stability and packages?
i have tried it. it was pretty good.
might switch over once i'm done with fedora
>>54880832
Its still sortof buggy, but I love using it so much, that I don't mind. Then again I've always been a KDE fag so take my word with a grain of salt.
How big of a difference is there between openSUSE and Kubuntu, as far as KDE oriented distros go? I've yet to exhaust all the possibilities with the latter as I've only been using it for a few days but, as far as a distro that specializes in that DE, I actually have been looking at openSUSE as another choice. So far I've yet to encounter anything in Kubuntu that I find objectionable, so I wonder how much worth there is. (Excepting things like learning more about Linux because openSUSE is a bit less "just works.")
nope
