Joining Fedora and Ubuntu, the new version of the community driven OpenSUSE can now be run on AArch64 processors, further preparing the market for servers running on the new 64-bit ARM architecture



From Computerworld:

The newly released OpenSUSE 13.1, also comes with the latest version of OpenStack, called Havana, and can work with computers secured by UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface).

The OpenSUSE Project, which manages the mostly volunteer-led development of OpenSUSE, has warned that the AArch64 version of the new distribution is still experimental, though it can be used to test ARM-based servers and operations. With this release, OpenSUSE joins Red Hat's community-driven Linux distribution, Fedora, and Canonical's Ubuntu, in offering an experimental Linux distribution that can run on 64-bit ARM processors.
