From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I did an update. First time I tried I borked something. Zypper refused to work. No worries, just rolled back to a snapshot did the update again from tty to be safe. Everything worked just fine. I even released all the locks I had for patterns hah.
It did leave a ton of unneeded packages behind. Now I'm wondering if I'm safe in cleaning them up.
The new system has a few bugs but seems otherwise fine. A panel keeps jumping to a different screen on restart. Some small graphical glitches. Nothing I can't live with.
