Bernhard,
I finally got the chance to switch from Raspian to openSUSE on my Pi. I dislike system management under any flavor of Debian - openSUSE is so much more intuitive.
The only file I saved was /boot/config.txt. It took me too long to get the graphics on the monitor set up correctly to want to redo that.
I run a cross-compiler and build new kernels on an x86_64 desktop, then copy them over NFS to the Pi. Doing those builds on the Pi was just too painful. I use the source from the raspberrypi repo at GitHub, and I have switched to the 3.12.y branch, which is currently at 3.12.6.
I have installed FXCE as the desktop, but have not yet switched to it. IceWM is a bit plain.
Awesome. My RPi is supposed to arrive today (it's still "out for delivery"), and I was planning to build at least one sdcard that had the openSUSE port on it, especially since it looks like OBS will build packages for it. I wonder what we need to do to get the openSUSE port listed on the RPi website along with the other distros for the platform?
