Well it is time to say goodbye to my openSUSE journey. So I’ll go out using the wallpaper I had with my Tuxedo laptop. Take care everyone, be cool to one another.
Hi All, so this is a test system setup with the Development Agama installer (agama-installer.x86_64-20.0.0-openSUSE-Build9.3)
I used the following json profile to do most of the work in installing Hyprland (which is not even in the software list 
), not fully automated as still getting up to speed with this new installer.

I set an installer password on the iso image, dd onto a USB device and booted the system. I did ssh the json file over to the test system, then ssh’d onto the system and used agama validate, load and install commands…
A few more tweaks on the hardware side for configuration and some flatpaks…
Finally happy with my fastfetch config and Conky setup - moving the information gathering from the configuration file to a separate lua script lowered the CPU impact from 0,45% to 0,08%. Wohoo.
@mendres82 I ran conky for a long time but switched to the Astra Monitor extension… Conky had a hard time dealing with 36 threads…
I guess an 8K Display in vertical orientation should be able to cover your Conky needs though, no? 
And another Agama+Profile install of Hyprland… MacBook Pro, a few tweaks of my default Hyprland for the likes of the keyboard backlight and monitor etc. But all running fine on the Nouveau/Intel drivers…
Dear @malcolmlewis Great effort!
Does your system actually support notebook specific hardware and system behaviour (like backlights, special keys, power management, esp. like closing on lid)?
So, I guess it’s an older MBP, isn’t it. (I can also see it in fastfetch, due to an Intel CPU…) What specific model is it?
Do you also have a Silicon Mac-something (M_x)? Running Linux generally? Running openSUSE especially?
@C7NhtpnK Yes, keyboard backlight, Screen brightness, lid closing, suspend, the only thing not working is the actual keyboard brightness buttons. I can control the keyboard backlight via brightnessctl which suffices. Wifi (broadcom-wl is needed) and Bluetooth are working. Both GPU’s have dedicated VRAM as well, which is nice…

Well the Nvidia GPU is the actual default, but also uses the Intel, no switcherooctl. I did play with the G05 driver and suse-prime with limited success.
It does dual boot with MacOS (Monteray)
No, no M_x series MacBooks, just MB (2007) and MBP’s…
