Answer 1

由于 openSUSE 项目与 SUSE 并肩工作，并由该公司赞助，因此几年前决定拉近开发流程并同步发布。此后系统版本使用通用的内核版本。

openSUSE version history > Version history:

Starting with version Leap 42.1 (after version 13.2), each major release is expected to be supported for at least 36 months, until the next major version is available (e.g. 15.0), aligned with SUSE Linux Enterprise Releases. Each minor release (e.g. 42.1, 42.2, etc.) is expected to be released annually, aligned with SUSE Linux Enterprise Service Packs, and users are expected to upgrade to the latest minor release within 6 months of its availability, leading to a similar support lifecycle of 18 months as earlier.

因此，最新版本之间的对应关系如下所示：

Kernel version  SUSE version    openSUSE version
4.4             12.2            42.2
4.4             12.3            42.3
4.12            15.0            15.0
4.12+           15.1            15.1
