Does anyone with a Samsung Series 9 (or other samsung laptop) know if  openSUSE is affected by the UEFI bricking issue (supposedly related to  samsung-laptop module)? Has anyone installed openSUSE on a Samsung  laptop with UEFI? Or did you disable it? How does this affect openSUSE? [quote] Booting Linux using UEFI just once on various Samsung laptops is enough  to permanently stop them working. Several reports have been posted on   the Ubuntu bug tracker, but the problem is likely to also be present in  other Linux distributions, as it appears to be caused by a kernel  driver  for Samsung laptops. Kernel developers are currently discussing a   change which would disable the driver when booting via UEFI.  [/quote] http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Booting-Linux-using-UEFI-can-brick-Sa...
