  • Such a recognizable wallpaper on the screen behind you 😉 Many thanks for doing the review!

  • The correct way to change the default zone is by actually clicking on "Zones" and then it lists all the zones and which one is the actual default. It shows a check mark . You select the zone you want to make the default one and click on the "Set As Default" button. This also results in it adding your network interface to the screen where you had just the docker one.

    I do hope that at some point, Yast will be a thing of the past as it's really gotten long in the tooth and some of the things in there were not very intuitive. At least to me.

    On more gotcha for those of you who have scanners with non-opensource drivers. Opensuse by default deactivates all the drivers /etc/sane.d/dll.conf . They use a script to then detect if the newly inserted USB device has a driver available and activates it. In theory, well their theory this helps mitigate security issues. In practice, it deviates from the sane project's default settings and wastes one's time :/

  • Alongside Debian, OpenSuse is one of the oldest and mature distributions. If you look for a stable distribution and you want to focus on what you need to do, not on the operating system, then Leap is a good choice. Is also a good choice because is flexible, if you don't want a bloated system you can do a server install, choose the base pattern you want for your DE and finally you install only what you'll use.

  • Good review as always. I hope your brother enjoys OSLeap and incline more towards Linux as primary operating system.

  • Your brother deserves Slowroll. Change Leap to Slowroll and have fun
