Hello Dirk,
I am using this image here >
https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryPi2/JeOS-raspberrypi2?arch=armv7l&repository=images
and by default it has raspberryi-userland package installed, this is
preventing anything graphical from working correctly, if i install
LXDE and KDM and i try to log into LXDE it totally hangs and never
finishes loading, however if i replace rasperrypi-userland with the
Mesa-libEGL packages then i can log in, but either way with or without
raspberrypi-userland the highest resolution i can get is 800x480 and I
have tried several different monitors some are pure HDMI others I am
using a HDMI to DVI adapter, I get the same results regardless of what
I plug into, but with Mesa I can at least log and use things, firefox
for instance loads etc.. and everything seems quite fast just very low
resolution. Second the sound just flat out doesnt work at all, I am
using the onboard Raspberry Pi2 sound through the headphone jack, the
monitor i normally plug my pi into is an older 1280x1024 dell with DVI
to HDMI adapter, so no sound via HDMI for me, the problem is that
tumbleweed isnt even seeing the hardware at all, i go into yast and
sound and it asks me if i want to probe for hardware, and then it
never finds anything, seems pulse nor alsa have any clue there is a
sound card present at all. If you can offer me any guidance perhaps I
am just truly doing something wrong, but I have been trying to get
opensuse to boot on my Raspberry pi2 since I got it a year ago, the
only luck i ever had was with 13.1 on my B+ unit, so far on my pi2 its
been a dismal experience and I am mostly forced to use either Raspbian
or Ubuntu Mate, which is a highly polished experience by comparison.
Thanks for any feedback you can offer I would very much prefer to be
running opensuse on all of my hardware, I am not a fan of Debian and
Ubuntu.

Hi Michael,

: I also had good success the only problem I am having now is I am stuck in 800x480 resolution the raspberrypi-userland package needs to be uninstalled
Do you mean it needs to be *installed* ? Because from what I can see, it is not part of the image.
also and replaced with mesa EGL or you can't get any DE to launch, either way thouh the maximum resolution i can get is 800x480 with any monitor attached, currently i have an old Dell 1280x1024 max resolution screen, which works great at full res when i boot raspbian or ubuntu mate. Oherwise things are great it feels very fast loading apps and booting up.
Another note seems sound card is also not being detected either.
Which sound card are you using? I have modules both for bcm2709 and for bcm2835 enabled as well as the hifiberry one. Do you expect sound to work via HDMI ?
Thanks, Dirk
