openSUSE Tumbleweed
openSUSE Tumbleweed is a flagship Linux distribution from the openSUSE Project. Unlike traditional operating systems that release major versions every few years, Tumbleweed follows a rolling release model.
About openSUSE Tumbleweed
The openSUSE project is a community program sponsored by SUSE Linux and other companies. Promoting the use of Linux everywhere, this program provides free, easy access to openSUSE, a complete Linux distribution. The openSUSE project has three main goals: make openSUSE the easiest Linux for anyone to obtain and the most widely used Linux distribution; leverage open source collaboration to make openSUSE the world's most usable Linux distribution and desktop environment for new and experienced Linux users; dramatically simplify and open the development and packaging processes to make openSUSE the platform of choice for Linux developers and software vendors.
Highlights
- -Legendary YaST system configurator, Btrfs filesystem snapshots via Snapper.
- -Bleeding Edge, But Stable: It provides the latest Linux kernels, drivers, and desktop environments (like KDE Plasma and GNOME) mere days after they are officially released.
- -Automated Testing (openQA): The biggest fear with rolling releases is that an update will break the system. openSUSE combats this with openQA, a massive, fully automated testing framework.
