Second this. Tumbleweed is a great distro. Nearly everything you’ll need can be found in default repos. Then there are several endorsed (semi) official add-on repos, and if that fails there’s always OBS (opi is your friend for searching those).

Daily rsync to a local nas and weekly backups to offsite with pika-backup.

Excellent article. That’s why I use OSS first and foremost as they don’t have the incentive to bring in € instead they are more focused on a quality product.

I stand corrected. I use Tumbleweed so have not kept up to date on that front.

OpenSuse is already by itself a well rounded distro. It supports multiple desktops out-of-the-box, is highly customizable so it doesn’t really need forks.

SUSE Linux Enterprise isn’t really a fork. OpenSuse Leap is to SLE a bit like Fedora is to Red Hat i.e. the community version which is then frozen at some point to build SLE.

It is. It’s a rolling release so it has the latest packages. It’s not bleeding edge like arch. All software goes thru an automatic testing in OpenQA before they are allowed in the repo so there’s some quality control. It’s also very stable.

I’m on the Other category, both for home and work. I use Tumbleweed in both.

Have you tried Okular?

Valve releasing Proton.

Here’s what I got when I upgraded: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Kn3hsL. In addition I have two sata ssds (1 TB & 2 TB) for data storage. It’s similar to yours. For me performance was the priority. Doing most of my gaming on Linux.

Edit: As the ram in my build are expo models they run at 6000 MHz. No instabilities.

I’d say wait a few days to see if glibc-eac-bin gets updated. Could the name refer to easy anti cheat perhaps? The glibc is the official library that comes with Linux distros.

Here’s a good list: https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi/blob/main/home/USB_WiFi_Adapters_that_are_supported_with_Linux_in-kernel_drivers.md

It can’t be removed. That info comes straight from the hardware itself (UEFI and individual devices).

This command won’t show the real values when using btrfs. You need to use sudo btrfs filesystem usage <mount point>.

So my TLDR, is that its possible to be a USER without touching the terminal, but I dont think its possible to be an administrator without.

Suse with Yast makes it possible to administer just with GUI. Not 100% sure if it can do absolutely everything possible but it has lots of tools.

Have an idea which might solve this.

1. Change the vm net config to NOT bind to specific host interface
2. Change host networks so that there’s only one default route (lan)
3. Add routing to host that all traffic which goes to 192.168.102.x goes through the host wlan connection

When the host routing table is like this:

$route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
default         192.168.102.1   0.0.0.0         UG    600    0        0 wlp19s0f4u1u1
default         RT-AC86U-6D60   0.0.0.0         UG    20100  0        0 enp15s0

the VM has internet connection. If the defaults are the other way around it doesn’t.

This sounds reasonable. Curiously now that I tried again with both host lan & wlan active there was no problem. I have a hunch the routing depends on which interface networkmanger starts first.

$route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
default         192.168.102.1   0.0.0.0         UG    600    0        0 wlp19s0f4u1u1
default         RT-AC86U-6D60   0.0.0.0         UG    20100  0        0 enp15s0
192.168.2.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     100    0        0 enp15s0
192.168.100.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 virbr1
192.168.102.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     600    0        0 wlp19s0f4u1u1
192.168.122.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 virbr0_

Removing a pattern doesn’t unfortunately remove the packages it installs. Only the pattern “package” is removed.
