   First, never use that line as separator of text. It is reserved for   
   signatures. Editors have to remove the text below it when replying. I   
   had to copy paste your text to be able to see it here.

   You either have Tumbleweed plain and simple, or you have Leap 15.2.   
      
   Please paste the output of "cat /etc/os-release" in a terminal.

   Impossible to know for certain unless you paste the error text complete.
