Hi - I downloaded the ISO image for Leap 42.2 to install it on my brand spanking new ASUS laptop
Start by giving us the model number of your Asus. It might be too new to be fully supported out of the box.
Oh sure - ASUS ROG G752VS OC Edition Not that I am advertising for ASUS but you can see more info about it on Amazon where I purchased it -

That has Skylake-K and Nvidia "with the latest NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX™ 10 series graphics".[1]
Did you Google before you bought it to see how new that hardware is? On October 18, 2016 http://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/asus-g752v wrote the GTX 1070 is "brand-new". This smells bad for 42.2, only just released last month with kernel 4.4, while Tumbleweed is up to 4.8.13. Maybe you can get TW to install? Is it too late to take it back?

Kernel 4.9 is probably what you want to get the best out of Skylake. I don't know where you get that for opensuse. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
