[opensuse] Suse 10.3-X86-64-GM install
Just installed 64-bit suse 10.3 on Athlon 64X2 4600+ with Nvidia 7300 GT (PciExpress X16). Install on raid1 drives succeeded this time with no problems. Glxgears runs at 880 fps (w/compiz-fusion) now versus 100 fps with 10.2 and Compiz-fusion full screen 1680X1050 resolution. Openoffice.org write opens in 2 seconds with quickstarter running. Everything is much faster than 10.2. Only hitch I ran into was "gnome-xgl-switch --disable-xgl" did not work. Said GDM was not running. I installed "kde-start-compiz" file in /home/afore/bin with "compiz ccp &" in the file and made it executeable. Compiz works better than ever. Tried the one-click install for compiz-fusion-kde and the plugins, that also worked great. Best Suse yet and a drastic improvement over 10.2.

I don't use compiz-fusion because I don't like wasting cycles on eye-candy so I don't know if it's responsible for that or if it's the 1600x1050 but... I run Sabayon 3.4e on my Athlon 64 X2 3800+ with a 7300GT on two screens with 1280x1024 and glxgears give me between 5100 and 5700 fps. I'll test on 10.3 later.
