Hi there,

I have a laptop here which is only partially working with Leap 15.0 kernel but works fine with current 15.1 kernel version. The needed fixes would be too much work to be backported, especially as Leap 15.1 is incoming soon. [1]

So, is there a way to install the laptop with Leap 15.0 plus Leap 15.1 kernel and to - as soon as it's released - pull the rest of the system up to 15.1 as well? And if so - are there any severe troubles to expect?

I did similar with a 42.3 installation that needed several new drivers: I just grabed the then-current TW kernel package(s) and installed manually. It would just ignore any kernel update during standard 'zypper up', as those from Leap have lower version. You'd have to repeat that manually again if you want/need to get a kernel update. Rock stable without any issues (and the machine has heavy load), so I'd expect the same for a 15.0 with 15.1 kernel. There should be no issues if you dup later to 15.1. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
