Comment # 5 on bug 943548 from
What I asked as "recent" kernel is the recent *upstream* kernel.  openSUSE
release sticks with 3.16.x, which is quite old in comparison with the latest
upstream.  There is a chance that this was already fixed by the later upstream
kernel, so we need to check it whether any newer kernel has the fix.

As I wrote, several kernels are found in OBS repository.  For example, 4.2 is
found in OBS Kernel:HEAD repo, i.e.
   http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/

You can download the kernel from there
(standard/x86_64/kernel-desktop-$VERSION*.rpm), and install it via "zypper in"
command.
Sometimes you might need to pass --oldpackage option to "zypper in" when you
try to install an older kernel package.

Also, maybe better to edit /etc/zypp/zypp.conf beforehand to allow more kernel
installations.  Edit the line multiversion.kernels and add last-2,last-3,last-4
there, for example.  This will keep up to five old kernels instead of two.
