What is the experience with the latest Fedora and Suse versions? Traditionally I have used Fedora, and version 40 with KDE6 and Plasma is very very nice. I have several things that effect my system, like Updates through Discover showing up but handing on installation through the GUI. DNF update through the console works fine. The other issue I seem to have I am not able to restart the system. It will not reboot back, it require me turning the whole computer off and then back on. I am running a Blackbird with the 4 core processor. I experimented with Suse and it seemed like some of these issues didn't happen with it.
I guess I should have mentioned I am using this machine as my day to day desktop machine. Wondering if anyone else is doing this as well.

What happened in detail? Black screen? Which GPU? fast-reset on or off?

I have the same problem on Fedora 39 on Talos. Restarting doesn't work. You have to turn the machine off and on. I got used to it ;)

It reboots, motherboard beeps, and then monitor never comes alive again. Have to do a hard power off.
I am running a Radeon RX5500XT.
I am not sure on fast-reset on or off. Is this a setting on the board?
Yes I have been getting used to just powering it off. I was curious what other people were experiencing.

You just have to disable fast-reset. It's written here (https://wiki.raptorcs.com/wiki/Enabling_Navi_10_On_Fedora_31#Disabling_fast-reset).

Thanks for the tip! I didn't realize that.

i don't think alot of people use opensuse. I did when I had a blackbird, leap was pretty good I liked it more than fedora but codecs for video playback were a problem unsure if that's resolved now. There was also the issue of missing libraries in the repo needed to build software on occasion. When I used leap I had to use a newer kernel for some ppc64le patches/updates that weren't in the standard mainline leap kernel. Tumbleweed is pretty incomplete, it's near unusable for a desktop imo. Fedora had more software support but I wasn't really a fan of it, it had problems with my mouse when clocked at 1000hz and just didnt feel as solid/stable. most people tend to use fedora or debian though. I used a blackbird as a main desktop, it's not super different from x86 linux imo.
