I was interested in trying out openSUSe and tried to install it on my third drive:

on my first and second attempt the install failed with an error that the creation of the efi Boot partition failed something along the lines of: > execution of command /usr/sbin/shim-install failed no space left on device (i tried both manual and automatic partitioning)

i then tried to install fedora on that disk, just to see if something is wrong with the disk (or my skill) and it worked without a hinch.

after that i tried it again with tumbleweed and it seemed to install just fine. but when i tried to boot it didn't work, it just showed a black screen with a blinking - for about a minute before rebooting.

i gave up after that.

is there something that i might have missed during my install, i thought that openSUSE has a great reputation.

system is a ryzen 7 with an rtx 2060, on an ASRock mainboard with secure boot deactivated. disk is my old 250gb samsung 840 evo

I'm using Debian 12, Ryzen 7 5700X processor, and Radeon HD 5450 graphics card. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VLC but it didn't resolve the issue. Here's an excerpt from the VLC's log file:

>glconv_vaapi_x11 error: vaDeriveImage: operation failed > >main error: video output creation failed > >main error: failed to create video output > >avcodec info: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding

How do I resolve this issue?

Here's the entry in the fstab file for mounting my hard drive. I have bolded the name of the hard drive (that's what it shows up as on the dock when it isn't mounted): UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 /media/lucky/New Volume ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

After making that entry in fstab, I execute the, systemctl daemon-reload, command, and then mount -a, afterwards which gives me this error.

I just switched from Ubuntu 23.10 to Debian 12 (using X11) if that helps. I didn't have this problem in Ubuntu.
