Do you think openSUSE is suitable for a Linux newbie or should I choose another distribution?

Question

linux

You need a more or less user friendly distribution.

Answer 1

Quite. It works stably, installation is as easy as 2 fingers, it is possible to configure many things through yast.

Answer 2

Take the quiz. Most likely it will issue: ubuntu, mint, suse.

Answer 3

For a beginner, almost any will do, including suse. As they say, the terminal is everywhere, the rest will follow

Answer 4

Try Elementary OS - the same Ubuntu, but the feeling is much fresher :-)

Answer 5

Thorswald's favorite assembly is suzi. =) Here we draw conclusions

Answer 6

The prospects for this OS alone are not the best in light of recent events.

Answer 7

Linux has been happy lately, all distributions go to the user friendly, I started with slackware 4, sousse is quite an interesting and peculiar distribution kit, quite acceptable for a beginner, reworked slack at the root, at the moment, if you do not take into account ubuntu, you can consider Linux Calculate if it does not scare that it is based on Gentoo, it is simple and stable. And so suce is completely nothing

Answer 8

I have been using Kubuntu for 6-7 years as the only system, I really like it, but I started with Mandrake Odyssey in 2000 or 2001, it was a long time ago that it didn’t work for me right away, and somehow I cooled off from Mandriva, sat on Windows and slowly, somehow imperceptibly, completely switched to Ubuntu, then with Gnome, but after a short time, I saw KDE and that's it! I don’t need anything else (subjective opinion) In general, you need to try everything, so to speak, live and make your choice,

Answer 9

Definitely. Very stable and hard to break distribution. It is easy to install, there is an active Russian-speaking community that will always help, and the ability to install programs with one click from a large own repository. And, of course, there are well-prepared KDEs.

Answer 10

Yast is certainly a good utility, but try to file it for yourself ...
I'm not talking about the crapness of using RPM.
Of course, I assume that such criticism on my part may also be from KDE, and then possible curvature.
Try ubuntu, try suce, try openbsd, try fedora, try everything.
And then follow this plan: (This is how I lived, and still live)
Try Knoppix. (I remember I lived on knoppix from a flash drive for a couple of years, and the disk was empty)
First, use standard utilities (IceWeasel, lxterminal ...), and then (in a month or 2) start sawing, sawing and sawing again to your heart's content.
Further, a way to you in debians. Of course, I immediately felt warm on sid, but take testing for yourself.
Experience with buttons will very likely tell you that a well-cut LXDE is much better than (still young and not stoned) GNOME and KDE. (I myself, as I filed my knopiks, I always have a combo: Compiz + AWN + Conky)
Then go try to make a gent.
And remember: You will take everything to hell, and go back to the Knopixes (which you did not leave, however, assuming that you put gentoo from him) at least 5 times. Either the ideology is bad for you, or you can’t crumple the kernel normally ... But as soon as you install DE, turn on Firefox, your eyes will stop twitching, and your soul will calm down, then you will understand what you will read Habr for the rest of your life.
Then you can "slowly try" FreeBSD (optionally, I wish a healthy person to stay on Ghent), and more than once call the BSD ideology not the most decent words, and then remember the love for minimalism instilled by knoppix, and leave for NetBSD, and then go even further and leave for Minix, perhaps even looking towards P9 and its forks.

Answer 11

Stop littering the guy's head, install and use, there are no problems with the OS, it works stably. I have been using openSuse KDE 64 for more than a year, I have not identified any problems, well, with the exception of firewood for rare peripherals, but this is a common problem for Linux, hardware manufacturers do not consider it necessary to write firewood for them.
