I have a Raspberry Pi 1B running now for a few years with openSUSE 13.2 as a server; e-mail, imap and apache and a small other application. Obviously a 1B+ or a 2B are also usable as servers. It very much depends on the load it has to cope with. However the image I started with, 13.2, is no longer available and there are no updates for this version. AFAIK currently the only working image with openSUSE Tumbleweed is for a 2B. The available openSUSE Tumbleweed images for 1B are not working, but I still have a working image which I can make available after private communication. The repositories for this Tumbleweed version gets regular updates and I have no problems when updating the systems (1B and 2B). > (I am not talking about Tumbleweed, I'd prefer something less time > consuming.

So after installation and configuration you can leave the system as be. No need to keep up with Tumbleweed. > Ideally this would mean 13.1 or 13.2 being usable, or maybe Leap is > going to be usable. Anyone tried Leap yet? I am not aware that there is a Leap version for the Raspberry Pi. Not even considered. > Thanks in advance for your input! > > Johannes -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscr...@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+ow...@opensuse.org
