I woke up this morning with this question?
If Tumbleweed is the latest Kernel and Software Versions, why are we worried about hardware that is over 8 years old?
So here's another question for you: Why does the recent Linux kernel still support pretty old hardware? And now the key question: Why should Tumbleweed cut off supporting old hardware if nobody benefits from this move? I'm opposed to this change. There is no compelling reason for it. At least two of my family/friend users are affected by this because of old notebooks currently running fine for their usage. Splitting support for -v1 to separate port repo means more maintenance work. But the openSUSE project does not have plenty of helping hands. Ciao, Michael.
