Lately I installed Fedora Cosmic, and I remembered OpenSuse offered this whole setup integrated in the installer, with only the Cosmic Desktop to be added. This guide describes all that, from ISO to Desktop, and how to get there. Have fun!

A Guide to an Encrypted Cosmic Gecko

Lately I installed Fedora Cosmic, with LUKS2 encryption, secure boot et al. It was an excellent learning experience, but it also involved some manual actions...

#Tumbleweed
Review of the week 2026/23

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,

Another rather uneventful week over here in Europe: another holiday in the middle of the week (for some regions, not all of Europe). The
openSUSE community, in its international form, is usually not significantly affected by such interruptions and keeps rolling. That’s
exactly what was observed this week as well: 6 snapshots (0529, 0530,0531, 0601, 0602, and 0603) have been published over the last week.

The main updates contained therein were:
* Mesa 26.1.1
* Mariadb 11.8.7 & 11.8.8
* Qt 6.11.1
* Pipewire 1.6.6
* Samba 4.23.8 & 4.24.3
* GNOME 50.2
* util-linux 2.42.1
* gpgme 2.1.0
* java packaging change: migrated from update-alternative to libalternatives
* libvirt 12.4.0

The future is bright, and looking into my crystal ball (or on the staging dashboard) helps me to predict these changes coming to you soon:
* Mesa 26.1.2
* Linux kernel 7.0.11
* harfbuzz 14.2.1
* php 8.5.7
* KDE Gear 26.04.2
* KDE Plasma 6.7.0, currently 6.6.91 staged for QA
* Rework of Python3 packaging (as a meta package instead of a provides of the default interpreter)
* gcc 16 as the system default compiler

Cheers,
Dominique Leuenberger

Wiener Unternehmen startet mit Weltraum-Box für Experimente

Das Wiener Weltraumunternehmen Tumbleweed hat einen Satelliten entwickelt, der in Kürze standardisierte Behälter - sogenannte "Pods" - in den erdnahen Weltraum transportieren soll. Ziel sei es, Forschung in der Schwerelosigkeit - etwa Medikamentenentwicklung oder Materialtests - schnell und unbürokratisch zu ermöglichen, teilte das Unternehmen in einer Aussendung mit.

There was this one nagging application, Filen (encrypted cloud in Germany), that I need for work and couldn't get to run on either Chimera and Casuarina. Needed it this morning. Already have the rpm (and some) to use with Slackware. Grabbed Tumbleweed and did a custom install. Need to turn that into a blogpost. Super lean, before we get that Agama atrocity.
Systemd-boot, secure boot, LUKS. No flatpaks 😜 Extension-manager in the repos. And great theming.
