9.1 is a disaster, it should never have been released. I already had to switch to Mandrake 10.0. Hardware recognition is utter crap in 9.1, but there is plenty of it more. For example BT8xx is found ok, but the module is only loaded with the help from keyboard. I have tried upgrades, install-overs, fresh installs, they all causes more mess than enything else. Same or similar problems in some four different hardware I tried installing it. I even tried upgrading Suse 9.0 to 9.1 in a FuSi Primergy server with Adaptec's RAID controller -- no, cannot be done because 9.1 does not find the previos system, nor harddisk, even it loads the Adaptecs drivers just fine... GCC cannot produce executables no longer after some YOU update... Another issue is locale troubles, that was the final reason to drop 9.1 for good. I cannot use Konsole, nor console, because non-US characters f*cks up the screen. Very unpleasant when handling tens of eMail using pine every day. No matter what font is used. There are definitely way too many problems in 9.1 for me to try using it. There is no way, I believe, all the faults in it can be fixed before 9.2 is out. So, until that, I stick with Mandrake that installs, speaks my language and lets me write using funny but ¡important! characters for me.

It has its quirks and at times doesn't seem to be a finished product, but in general it works, even on some not so mainstream hardware. I often wonder when seeing some problems reported just what I'd see if I installed it on the same hardware people have had complaints with - some seemingly I'd expect no trouble with compared to the hardware I have. Typically, one of the first things I do is to install the latest kernel.org kernel. I've not seen any show stoppers with 9.1, x86 installed on a A7N8X-E, FX5200 with nvidia driver, on an old Fuji Lifebook P-II 333 and x86_64 installed on an Acer Aspire 1501LCE laptop with some not so standard hardware. The only problems I have are with building some apps on x86_64, a slight nuisance, but expected to see improvements as x86_64 gets more popular. On x86 hardinfo works on the laptop, on this tower, it starts, but I get no display. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer Linux Only Shop.

It might be a pine problem (haven't tried recently, but in the not so far past, pine wasn't capable to handle utf-8 encoding). Pine is the programm that Jyry is using and where he reported problems. He could of course revert to using iso-latin1 (ISO-8859-1) rather than utf-8 with SL 9.1. Greetings from Bremen hartmut

Hello No, not a pine problem, directly. The pine I'm using resides on another box that I use through ssh, even now, but from Gentoo box. Works with Mandrake, too, and Suse 9.0, but not from any 9.1 box I installed and tested. --Jyry C|:-( C|:-/ C|========8-O C|8-/ C|:-(

You think SuSE 9.1 should never have been released. I could add to this that Mandrake 10.0 should never have been released and FC2 should never have been released. My take is its all due to the kernel 2.6.x being very new. No wonder Slackware is sticking to kernel 2.4.x for their next release. In order to fix as many bugs in 2.6.x as possible the kernel must be widely used and therefore packaged by the various distros so it gets to the end user who becomes unwillingly(?) a tester ;)

I was a happy Mandrake user until 10.0 came out and I moved to SuSE 9.1 so it's really a case of what works for many doesn't for some and the other way around.

I'm running happily 2.6.4-54.5-default but the driver for my USB cam (cpia) doesn't work because of 2.6.x, it was fine in 2.4.x Also I need firewire for a couple of HDs and my iPod and 3 distros I've tried have 3 different behaviour... Mandrake 10.0 - all ok SuSE 9.1 - only 1 HD recognize (HDs on 1 cable as master & slave) FC2 - firewire not even activated I'm sure 2.6.x works fine for many but it's likely to have more cases where people find something is not working or the driver is not up-to-date compared to 2.4.x which is fair as 2.6.0 has been released officially 6 months ago and 2.4.0 has been released 3 1/2 years ago!

I don't use subfs as it's not part of the standard kernel and some reports suggest problems due to it. 2.4.2x has many things backported from 2.6.x and there are issues with the latest 2.4.x kernels, but I'd agree that the early 2.4.x are likely to be the most stable kernels around. If Suse or Mandrake had released 2.4 kernels as the standard in 9.1 and 10.0 respectively, I'd still use 2.6 kernels instead. If there is a problem with 2.6, it's probably due to the distro add-ons, not 2.6 per se. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer Linux Only Shop.

Oh come on. I've just installed Debian 3.1 on my second PC (the other one runs SuSE 9.0). It's taken installing one of the more "in the raw" distros to make me realize how well SuSE has served me over the past three years. There's nothing wrong with Debian of course, and in fact it is extremely fast .. but without anything like YaST or the numerous suseconfig scripts the time taken to configure all the hardware and all the software is absolutely horrendous! It does seem as if SuSE 9.1 is less forgiving than 9.0, for want of a better word, and my sympathies go to folks whose set-up depends on a particular piece of hardware that 9.1 just doesn't seem to like. But oh boy ... Not all the alternatives are simpler let alone less hassle to set up. Besides, what's the problem with sticking to a 2.4 kernel for another few months. Just my 2 cents. :) Fish
