   Not openSUSE; only YaST. YaST was ported from the SUSE only language   
   they used (sorry, I don't remember the name) to ruby some years ago.   
   About the same time some modules were dropped.   
      
   However, this migration does not affect at all what hardware is   
   supported or not.
