Solved the issue but thank you for the reply. It looks like a nice GUI option.

Found my answer faster than I thought. Thanks though, this might be useful for people who use Hyprland.
To be fair, that sounds like a driver issue rather than a desktop environment. But you can try though.
Not sure when the last time you used openSUSE but the reason why I think it’s noob-friendly is you don’t need a terminal to update the system (talking about the KDE version here). When there is an update a notification pops up, you go to system tray, click on the icon and do the updates. You can even see a list what’s been updating. It doesn’t even ask a password, probably thanks to polkit.
They’re fine for a stable release I think. Nvidia is on 550 for example. For Major updates, ping me next year since I’ll try it then, when new Leap arrived.
My first experiment with openSUSE was also not ended well back then but nowadays it’s in my top 3 list when I’m suggesting distros to people.
Leap is surely noob-friendly.
Oh, if you were talking about back then, then you’re right. At that point, compiling them yourself would’ve been a better choice, but with lower powered CPUs that was another downside. I never stood Gentoo because compiling times were way too long for me, even though I like Gentoo.
I do miss them. But I’m happy with my custom Suru++ Aspromauros
icons too.
I would say OpenSUSE Leap. I tried many distros on my sister’s PC (Mint, PopOS, Manjaro) and all of them got borked at one point by normal updates. The last one I installed was Leap and she still uses it without any problems.
Use Flatpak instead of PPAs if you can. That way they won’t cause problems.
river has community layouts and I’m currently using bsp-layout, it’s not the same as bspwm but somewhat similar. Also the developer of river is working on to separate the window management which will allow basically anything related to layouts.
river is awesome, and I like it even beyond bspwm.
What’s wrong with Mint?
Unless there is a raccoon involved. Then it’s both.
Does network work on those distros but not on openSUSE, or network doesn’t work at all?
Maybe it’s a switch issue? Can you try
sudo rfkill
and see what’s the output?
