Hell dear listers,

I've been away for a while and now see that leap 42.2 has been released. On my leap 42.1 I had some problems using the optimus graphics card (an intel/nvidia mix) which I somehow could resolve using suse-prime. Also the Asus touchpad on a Skylake machine does not work as the kernel doesn't recognize it.

My questions:

- Does 42.2 support Optimus intel/nvidia now or is suse-prime still needed? If so, will it simply work after a zypper dup to 42.2? - Are the new touchpads now recognized and working; any experiences?

- and in general: can I just change the repositories to 42.2 and then run a zypper dup? Or do I have to consider/do some special things? Would you recommend upgrading to 42.2 or would that just be versionitis?

Thanks for your input!

Daniel You start by trying out the latest 42.2 kernel: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Kernel:openSUSE-42.2/kernel-default

That should let you see if the touchpad works, etc.

Touchpad definitely works with kernels >4.1.x. Since Leap 42.2 has kernel 4.4.x, touchpad works. I also have nividia/intel mix, but no experience yet. I have troubles with a ten year old Sony projector, but it is usual for me to have trouble with projectors in opensuse Albert
