The post is pretty high level, and it’s obviously going to be biased given the source. Anyone here use OpenSUSE and another distro for gaming that can compare them?
I use tumbleweed and it’s fine. I’ve been using it for about 2 years and there are a few things that were easier with fedora (e.g. Waydroid) but it’s not enough of a difference that I felt the need to switch back.
That being said, if I had to choose today and do a fresh install I would probably use Fedora.
I use bazzite and opensuse Kalpa. The Kalpa experience is far worse as far as things being broken and needing fixing. Opensuse Kalpa only boots some of the time. In an average week I probably have 5 times where it won’t boot at all just from some unlogged error of not being able to mount one of the partitions, different every time.
Those are likely microOS/Kalpa related things, not opensuse vs other distros though.
Huh. I use Kalpa for a media centre system, and microOS on my server. Never had any of those issues. The only thing I struggled a bit with as getting used to managing SELinux policies after only ever using AppArmour.
That sounds like a very easy usecase for it. Gaming, drawing tablet drivers, and CoreCtrl are maybe outside of opensuse’s usecase then? I mean I guess they don’t advertise themselves as a gaming distro, but if you system breaks upon layering some basic packages then it is not robust at all.
Was just playing MechWarrior5 on OpenSUSELeap this morning with the RTX shaders turned on. Every thing works great.
