Any opinions on how life is in OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with nVidia or AMD laptop GPUs?

The Tumbleweed docs are trying to scare me off, talking about broken 3rd party drivers, compiling your own, etc.

I realize that asking for Linux opinions is dangerous. ;-)

Sometimes, my KDE starts without the "taskbar"

When I boot my Arch Linux machine, about 1/10 times the "taskbar" is missing. (Do you still call it a taskbar?)

All I see it desktop icons, the background and the mouse cursor. I'm using NVIDIA proprietary drivers.

Do you guys have any idea what's with that? It's hard to troubleshoot because it only happens sometimes.

@fell
I don't have any strong feelings towards arch systems, so I've just moved on to @opensuse and have never seen that problem again. I know, this is not really a solution to the problem but as I said, nobody knew where the problem came from, so there was no way I could have ever fixed it or found a less cumbersome workaround instead of rebooting ad infinitum. <<

I write, design, and create with a modest Debian GNU/Linux Laptop. You can get a lot done with free software!

Why not using an up to date rolling distro like or ?
I use on a lot of very new hardware and only some minor stuff don't work some weeks/month

Second time I want to install and the download mirrors are down.This is getting comically. How often does this happen?

I've been daily driving @opensuse Tumbleweed for a few weeks now.

And it is the best rolling release distro I've ever used.

So, here are the things I found most interesting about it:
