[Wlug] Suse Linux Professional 10?

I could not get Compiz to work on OpenSuSe 10.2. Besides I can't advocate for Novell considering their recent partnership with MS.

Any of the Ubuntus are great. The GUI frontend to apt works exceptionally well. After you've updated the list of repositories, adding pretty much any app is a simple point-n-click.

It was pretty straightforward to load Nvidia's driver and setup Beryl. Sweet eye candy!

In 13 years of using Linux, it's the first distro I've considered user-friendly enough to put on my kids' PC.

If you want to be cutting edge, Ubuntu 7.4 officially releases next month. Of course, you can also get it right now.

OK, did so more research.  Looks like it's called OpenSuse 10.2.  Read 
some reviews.  Some good, some not so good.

Also considering switching to Fedora Core 4 or (K)Ubuntu 6.10.  Any 
thoughts for or against these distro's?

Has anyone ever used:    http://www.thelinuxstore.ca/   ?

Thanks,

[Wlug] Suse Linux Professional 10?







Hi all: 

The last Suse Linux software I purchased for laptop use was Suse Linux 
Professional 9.2.  Looking now to upgrade to 10.  Anyone know the latest 
Suse release for desktop use?  And I don't think they call it "Suse Linux 
Professional" anymore.  And did Suse ever solve that Yast slowness problem 
(at least I think it was something like that). 

Thanks, 
Doug _______________________________________________
