So have I washed my hands of OpenSUSE?
No I haven’t. I just may have to pass on it for now. Up till that last big update, it has worked well. I also wonder if perhaps I am an unusual case because the issue hasn’t been addressed. Since the error points to a GPU problem I wonder if it could be related to …
So OpenSUSE Leap? All signs point to No!
So since I found a solution to the OpenSUSE Leap grub screw up, perhaps I should reconsider it. Restarting your computer to find your other OSs missing from grub can be an initial shock. Especially when the disk device names change. So far the SSD where I write my OS root files have always shown …
OpenSuse becoming a nightmare
So I figured maybe in my case Tumbleweed is too risky for me. So I decided I’d install Leap. So I did that and it didn’t add my other OSs to Grub…Leap is the only option! So since I didn’t have any grub problems with Tumbleweed I reinstalled it. Except it too no longer offers …
OpenSuse Tumbleweed’s breakage
Maybe OpenSuse Tumbleweed itself didn’t break…a package it used broke. I knew it is a rolling release, so this can be expected. However I would have thought by now it would have been fixed. Unless I’m one of the few that has this problem. I know I’m not the only one as it has been …

VS Code still doesn’t work…found workaround!
Saw a couple of issues (most concern Ubuntu) about this, but I searched “GPU process exited unexpectedly: exit_code=159” which occured before the original “GPU process isn’t usable. Goodbye.” error bill@localhost:~/go/src/github.com/billb2050/Stuff> code –verbose[main 2021-10-05T01:25:07.861Z] Starting VS Code[main 2021-10-05T01:25:07.862Z] from: /usr/share/code/resources/app[main 2021-10-05T01:25:07.862Z] args: { _: [], diff: false, add: false, goto: false, ‘new-window’: false, ‘reuse-window’: false, wait: false, help: false, ‘list-extensions’: false, ‘show-versions’: false, version: false, verbose: true, status: false, ‘prof-startup’: …

Reinstalled OpenSuse Tumbleweed
Now to reinstall my programs.
Update Tumbleweed…failed!
Was going to reinstall Tumbleweed then saw a “Update” option. So decided to try that. Even though it was an update I still had to select many manual changes. A total waste of time for me. Didn’t fix my broken packages.
