Am I the only one having serious problems getting 9.3 to straighten out and fly right? I don't want to drag everybody through all of the gory details again, but the problems I've experienced are: These problems aren't being caused by hardware: I've got two other OSs installed and running beautifully (XP Pro is a business necessity and SuSE 9.2 Pro.) So, I guess my questions are really these: 3. Is 9.3 worth my time and effort since 9.2 is being so nice?
Maybe not, though I directly installed 9.3 on my system (without 9.2) and have had none of the problems you describe.
Maybe if you post the exact error messages that you get during the crashes etc, the guru-s here can help you.
First I've experienced non of these things on any of the 4 or 5 9.3 installations I've done. On 9.2 what kernel where you using? on 9.3? Could it be that your hardware in not (or badly) support in the new kernel? Have you tried it on another machine? I've been running 9.3 on my sony laptop since the day it was released (In germany, which used to be 2 weeks before USA), and it runs rock stable. In fact I 've only boot the original XP-Pro once in 3 months... (That is how I measure usefullness!).. So I think that your problems are hardware related, even though you seam to have crossed that off of your list. Jerry
