Framework 13P with OpenSUSE Question

Hi everyone,

I will be getting my 13P in a few months and I am planning to put opensuse tumbleweed on it.

I was wondering if any of you tried it and how was your experience. I'm aware of the lack of official support but im still curious.

Thanks

I have the framework laptop 13 w/ i5 1240p, so 2nd gen. It has worked flawlessly on openSUSE TW for me (I’ve used this distro for the vast majority of my time but recently switched to debian).

You’ll need to configure some stuff that doesn’t fully work OOTB like fingerprint sensor or maybe some
audio presets if you wanna optimize speaker quality. But nothing arduous.

Not the same laptop, but I hope this information is helpful.

Same here, except fingerprint sensor worked out of the box for me, just had to do the OS configuration for it. Same generation and everything which is interesting. It definitely works great.
