13.2 has no Linux driver for 6770 radeon card or 9600gso 768mb video card. I could not swap the hard drive from the N69C to the asus x99. The 42.2 would not do anything in the x99. No lan no cd rom. Just all kinds of rejections of every driver I tried to use. I have fooled around with windows between new and old machines and I am a novice. This opensuse has a nice green camelion but that is all can figure out. I did get both the 42.2 and the 13.2 to use firefox but that did not do much good as the drivers were not accepted by the operating system. It said bad characters. No copy and paste functions either, I noticed this operating system lists what it would like and how to go around it, but the go around will not work either. if I can’t use a desktop to save and sort through then there is no chance to use or reject things that don’t work, it is as if I am supposed to know in the first place what will work.
Hi
In openSUSE 13.2 for the 6770 card the oss radeon or proprietary fglrx driver, for the 9600GSO the oss one is nouveau or proprietary nvidia 340.101 driver. For openSUSE Leap 42.2 it’s just the oss radeon driver, nvidia one will work…
Why are you installing drivers, pretty much most hardware is covered by the kernel…
You may have to be more clear exactly what you wanted to do.
I think somewhere in your original post that you thought you could take a hard drive out of one machine and insert it into another.
Well, maybe that might work.
But, the chances it would work <completely> are minimal since you’d be relying on automatic hardware detection on bootup to find the new hardware and somehow configure to the new settings… But that will simply fail if your new hardware requires altogether new drivers and other software that don’t already exist.
So,
Re-post <exactly> what you’re trying to do (steps and your declaring what your objectives are), and if you your details are clear enough, you’ll get some good advice how to proceed.
And yes… If you don’t have anything particularly important on your hard drive and maybe anything you want to preserve are on a cloud driver or similar, then wiping the entire hard drive and installing from scratch might be the easiest option.
