OpenSuse vs Kubuntu



Hi,

I started using Kubuntu a few months ago, this was also my first Linux
experience.
In general, things work ok, but I've run into some issues that don't seem to
get resolved (mainly HW support)
- No sound in tvtime and mythtv
- Use of midi on the USB port (midi connectivity to a Roland synthesiser)
- no support for a canon scanner 4200F
(this seems to be a general Linux thing of Canon not supporting Linux)

Can anyone tell me if these issues are better supported in OpenSuse ?
and what is the main difference between OpenSuse and Kubuntu
