No, most likely what will happen is that they will install Ubuntu or Mint.
Do you mean Ubuntu * LTS 16.04 with 4.4 (the same as leap 42.3) and 5+ years support, or * non-LTS 16.10 with 4.8 with only 9 months support; tumbleweed has already newer kernel and comparable stability
LTS + rolling updates just for the kernel: https://askubuntu.com/questions/248914/what-is-hardware-enablement-hwe. This setup is supported by the Ubuntu team, fully knowing that it might sometimes introduce regressions.
This differs in no way from Leap + Kernel:stable, I assume. So we can
I think the only real difference from user point of view is that they provide nVidia packages for these kernels (I do not know what situation is with AMD).
only start sort of support it. Actually, we somehow do already. When a report to Tumbleweed kernel arrives, I mostly do not care with which userspace, because it is most of the time irrelevant anyway.
Suppose new kernel causes user space breakage (not something unheard of) and it requires user space patches/updates. What will be support situation on openSUSE? Ubuntu fully supports HWE stacks as part of LTS release. Can we expect other maintainers to work on bugs caused by "too new kernel" on Leap? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
