that's probably a good thing. :P
I have one question to the group. When I wiped Vista and formatted my drive on the laptop, instead of Reiser - which was the default for 9.1-10.1 for me - it formatted my partitions as ext3.
Any reason for the switch? I have no compliants, just wondering.
I believe it's been heavily discussed in the last couple of months. Hans Reiser the lead developer of reiserfs is on trial as suspected murder of his missing wife. Maybe as a precaution Suse decided to switch to ext3.
Actually, the decision to switch from reiser to ext3 as the default filesystem in openSUSE 10.2 is not related to Hans Reiser being arrested on murder charges. Most of the maintenance of reiser3 filesystem was being done by SUSE engineering,
Okay, that makes sense. I did an informal test. Under my music folder, I have 32G of music files (mostly mp3 and ogg) which - under reiser - would take forever to open. It seems under ext3 that it takes less time. Thanks for the answer. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
