openSUSE Tumbleweed: A Closer Look
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 бер 2021
- Some consider openSUSE Tumbleweed an underrated Linux Distribution. It is built on the btrfs file system and snapper and offers Yast2, a really well-built tool to manage the system.

#LinuxMadeSimple #review #opensuse
i remember 2002 years Suse linux.. thats time in my country have 56k internet... suse have 7 cd... we download it university...we use Pentium 3 800 pc..
Same :)
The German Supercar of Linux Distros ... SUSE! 😎
always use sudo zypper dup for tumbleweed. using sudo zypper up/update causes issues
Thanks for pointing this out.
YaST really is the big selling point of OpenSUSE for me. When I tried the distro, I loved it, too. Wonder if there is something close to it in the AUR...
Agreed. YaST is basically the Control Panel of the Linux world. Simple, concise and easy to change the settings you need to change.
OBS
Installing kde open suse to metal now!
I had nothing but crashes on Tumbleweed. On the ten months of using Arch not one crash! Which is sad because I love the openSUSE project.
Thanks for sharing Mike!
OpenSUSE is the only distro that I can trust on the decisions the take, KDE, btrfs and YaSt, all by default.
I enjoyed it as well!
i guess i have sinned by using ext4 and xfce
@@mozzer1881 there is nothing bad about ext4.
most casual users dont need btrfs anyway
@@socvirnylestela5878 "Need" is relative. I'd say the btrfs snapshotting tools are almost essential on a rolling release distro. If btrfs and Timeshift existed back when I first started using and playing with Linux over a decade ago I would have saved many, many hours of my life from reinstalling systems I broke and had no clue on how to repair.
Yet another interesting and very informative video. THANK YOU Ermanno
My pleasure!
For a second I thought: Wow, your german pronounciation is very good! Then I realized: Ah.. you are swiss, of course it is 😂
I am actually italian, but learned german here :)
@@eflinux I'm part Italian myself. Nice!
I take that as a compliment :))
Ciao!
My main distro. I love it
Congratulations on the success of your channel. I wish you much luck in the future. I've never tried OpenSuse but you have me very interested now. Gracias!
Thanks!
Thanks for the review, it truly is a different distro, it has amazing detection, you can pretty much do a pre-setup from any Distro's iso and it automatically imports the setup, luks2, serpent, btrfs subvolumes, multi HDD detection for Raid & a detached Luks header etc. unfortunately while I admire it, I can't fully take the leap if u will, every conceivable measurement openSUSE beats Arch...exept 1, the AUR, and that's a deal breaker if I don't have access to it, 1 way or another, so many of my programs are AUR and very few are actually Pacman, so reluctantly I gotta stay with what I know blindfolded.
I wouldnt add the pacman repo unless there was something I needed. It requires a vendor swap of packages that originally came from Suse.
I remember using OpenSuse so many years ago. It's quite good.
Sudo zypper dup, not zypper update.
Good Day Ermanno. Once again, a superb, skillfully put together presentation about Tumbleweed.
I do have a very minor issue with Tumbleweed. It always wants to update the system bios so that it is the default boot distribution. I do no mind that, but I wonder why it needs to do that each time I use TWD
BIG PLUS to SUSE for the grub menu that no other distribution offers. It is beautifully categorized to make reading the boot menu a pleasure to use.
I will briefly present my system configuration
a) Fedora 34 on /dev/nvme (30gigs out of 1tb)
b) /dev/sda (SSD) 120gig reserved for evaluating distros
c) /dev/sdb, Tumbleweed, Leap15.2 and Ubuntu Deepin, Each distro is given 30gigs
d) Leap 15.3, with 30gigs in size, I am not yet excited to use it.
e) Spare 1tb disk
f) Ubuntu with openzfs 1tb disk
I have tried clear-Linux(currently gnome40), but it is not yet suitable for the desktop. I am not enamoured with Gnome 40.
That is why I use the Fedora34 Deepin /Ubuntu Deepin interfaces.
My needs for a distribution fit within 30gigs of disk space. Ubuntu with Openzfs requires one to assign as a mininum, a full disk. So, it is a curiosity distro for me.
As for arch, for some reason, my earlier uses (manjaro, endeavourOS) did not keep me interested. For me, the distro that has a good user forum is why I keep that distro around.
In two weeks, I will be installing makulu linux's latest version. Jaques, le développeur de Makulu. vive en VietNam. Son distro est formidable.
Ermanno... why ? Why are you doing this to me ? I was on OpenSuse tumblweed KDE, then I watched your videos about arch linux and gnome, so I followed your installation videos. And now, you're reviewing OpenSuse ! Will I distro-hop once again ?
To be continued...
[thank you once again for your videos !]
Ahhh sorry! I didn't mean that :)) Don't think of it as a hopping, just visiting someone and then going back home to Arch :)
I switched over from bspwm to Sway and I am very happy :) just wish I could get it to open windows like bspwm without having to define where to open the window first. OpenSuse looks really nice.
I like how YaST shows which packages are in a meta package. I've been wondering what all is in the Arch Linux base package but I haven't bothered to look. Now I need to see how easy it is with pamac.
Great review Ermano, for long time ago i am stick to rpm... i love arch but for some security reasons i like to use rpm or deb. Many official software are in that format and i think is more secure install the official packages XDD. I definitely give a try to tumbleweed again because i love the bledind edge software, especially Gnome. and dont want to suffer the updating versions like in fedora. Best regards.
thanx ermano, Suse was may first distro back in 2004 :). Arch + KDE, and OpenSuse + KDE are may dayli drive for my laptop and desktop PC. :)
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your content ;)
I love OpenSuse because of BTRFS, really profesional look and feel, YaST and 2 flavors: Leap and Tumbleweed.
Sorry I'm a bit of a noob... Every desktop I try Manjaro etc... Had also snapshot btrfs... This is pretty common no?
@@pb8582 It’s becoming common. To be taken more seriously it’s needed adoption from bigger, enterprise & professional focused distros. OpenSuse jumped first followed shortly after by Fedora.
I gave openSUSE a second shot with tumbleweed recently, and I wanted to stick with it, but it is the only distro where I have had this peculiar problem.. I use a recording audio interface, mostly because my headphone jack on my laptop is broken, but I also use it for my microphone (Shure SM-57). Using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with GNOME, it would be switching automatically between the built-in audio and the USB audio. Looking at the audio device (PreSonus Audiobox iOne), when it did this, the power LED would flash suggesting that the USB port was not putting out enough power.. I have to wonder if it is some configuration because I have used many other distros on the same laptop, even Gentoo where I had to dig around the kernel menuconfig to figure out how to enable the drivers for the device.. I also don't have this problem on Arch with Gnome.. It only ever happened on OpenSUSE GNOME and it honestly was 100% a deal breaker because I absolutely need to be able to use that audio device. I don't want to hold it against OpenSUSE but I would be interested to know if anyone has any insight as to why this would happen? Thanks in advance.
Hi Jamie! I can't really be sure, but it sounds like openSUSE might use another driver/utility for managing that. Maybe someone in the community know more about this, or you can also ask in the opensuse forums eventually.
Nice Administration and Backup tools and that installer it's amazing....but the Arch's repositories functionality (pamac-all-git) it's another level really
Great Video Again Thanks: looks like a very nice professional distro I am going to install on a spare PC and see how it gets on with me :-)
Is the mirrorbrain issue fixed yet? Tried Tumbleweed a month a go and it kept redirecting everyone globally to the main german server and download speeds were abysmal. That was the main reason i went back to arch. 50kib/s is painful with a 5GB tumbleweed update.
Hi Jack! To be honest with you, I didn't notice that.
Can you do a video on XEN vs KVM
Wish you showed or mentioned accessing yast through command line that's huge draw of opensuse'a yast... configurations over ssh shell. The GUI tool is cool but not something super unique...
Another unique aspect of OpenSuse is its ability to boot from btrfs snapshots. Doing this at boot time is very useful indeed and I don't know of other good distros supporting this
Can you do arch zfs install
Hello ef, have you considered covering NIxOS? It seems pretty interesting!
It is indeed! I've looked at it once.
thanks
switch to openSUSE from manjaro because bluetooth on manjaro got bug and i'm to noob to solving that, openSUSE solve it for me.. it's nice
Great video, thank you :)
I think its looks really professional Distro. It's like Fedora35 imo. Both are great.
Ermano thank you for this great video.
You're welcome.
Why are you using LVM below btrfs? I thought btrfs could span multiple disks by itself, or is there done other feature you're after?
I think this from the btrfs wiki explains it better than I can: "A subvolume in btrfs is not the same as an LVM logical volume or a ZFS subvolume. With LVM, a logical volume is a block device in its own right (which could for example contain any other filesystem or container like dm-crypt, MD RAID, etc.) - this is not the case with btrfs. A btrfs subvolume is not a block device (and cannot be treated as one) instead, a btrfs subvolume can be thought of as a POSIX file namespace. This namespace can be accessed via the top-level subvolume of the filesystem, or it can be mounted in its own right."
If the openSUSE team puts up to date Nvidia driver and DKMS packages plus all other needed gaming packages in Packman repo it'd make gaming on Tumbleweed A much better experience.
Agreed. I never liked having to use the .run files just to have the most recent drivers for my nVidia gpu when I was using openSuSE years ago.
You add the official Nvidia repo and get the drivers directly from Nvidia.. it is literally the main thing they recommend to you when you go in yast to add community repos
i really love opensuse tumbleweed kde plasma just slightly i faced only one problem and that is nvidia graphics driver update.
Came for the Geeko, stayed for the Snapshots.
Hello Ermano, let's say I do not like snapper and I want to go with timeshift instead, is that possible? Do I need to uncheck the enable snapshot box during the installation? Coming from Linux Mint, timeshift is the better option for me... Thank you
Nice video!
I'd to see how you come to a result for production purposes, like setting up Opensuse as home server for SoHo needs.
like fileserver, DHCP server, router etc. those kind of things we should learn to do if we care about privacy or just start moving forward instead of waiting for money to suddenly appear and give us opportunity to buy all those top tech devices.
Well, for learning purposes Opensuse is surelly the distro for builders, small or medium.
Would that be possible ?
Why nobody managed to port Yast to other distributions? I remember there had been attempts in the past which failed
Yast is really a unique tool, and I find it's really well put together.
@@eflinux it is indeed an excellent utility. If established in other distros, it would enhance the usability of linux. If i remember correctly there are also a gtk and qt version available in suse. Thus, there seem to be all of the elements to make it the "standard control center" for linux.
It would be easy to think that most of the system inner workings it controls are conserved across distros (systemd? Firewall? Cups?). Thus, possibility of porting across them. However, it seems not much work on that in the community.
Really interesting and well-made Video! But what do you think about the Ukui Desktop and could you make a video how to install it on Arch?
TBH I never tried it, but I'll have a look at it.
I had recently tried Leap, both on PC and on ARM (Raspberry Pi 4). While I loved the distro (and YaST) in general, both the install and the actual OS once installed was significantly slower than other distros. Have you noticed something similar with Tumbleweed?
Not really, it felt actually really fast, I guess it really depends on the hardware config as well.
As always amazing.
Thanks again!
Hi ermanno, can we to install Opensuse Tumbleweed via chroot method like Arch or can only we use the official installer?
Not that I know of.
You should give the official installer a try. It's super good and detailed gui installer. The best installer out there In my opinion.
I installed opensuse via chroot like Archlinux. It has been pretty simple
Sir please make a video on how to upgrade to gnome 40 on arch linux!
just add in /etc/pacman.conf
above where the [core] repo is defined
[gnome-unstable]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
and upgrade
@@drishalballaney6590 No!
Just wait for the official release on Arch.
Some packages are already updated, others will follow soon :)
@@eflinux so sir when the stable release comes to arch then pacman will automatically upgrade it to the new gnome 40? It's just I'm very much interested in gnome 40 after i watched your video on it in fedora! So how much time would it take me to get it?
Plasma by default can't really handle high-DPI scaling properly
If you have one monitor, it’s pretty ok. With dual setup and independent dpi scaling, it’s a little tricky.
Funny i just got done testing out open suse on VM. Du spionierst mich aus hahahaha. Very bad news is that my machine was hacked on the 19th im missing two days worth of logs thank lord i didn't set up for work with my personal. Because sysctl.d issues I'm leaving Arch it is up two two choices, fedora or suse. Seeing i have more choices with yast ido believe suse i will live in
I tried Leap 15.4, but when installed i could not add my wifi connection,
Not very user friendly, i did not manage to add my wifi, even after updating,
I added my wifi in yast, but it did not show up in the desktop.
Infinite chameleon.
😂 he lives in sweden he has an Italian name. The German kingdom is very large
Sweden != Switzerland
Servus. Hallo . Kan ! du sier microos
How to report a person that holds keys in archlinux? Warning the person is sending illegal hacks using his keys!
Sei molto bravo e competente ma secondo me sarebbe preferibile che facessi tuoi video nella tua lingua madre cioè l’italiano, se non altro molta più gente potrebbe capire ciò che dici
L'inglese è la lingua dominante su YT, se facessi video solo in italiano non avrei gli stessi numeri purtroppo.
G-nome
Much appreciated review!
