How much of 9.2 is available on the Live DVD? The website says:-

"Want a hassle-free way to try Linux? Download SUSE LINUX Professional
9.2 Live DVD. It runs completely from your DVD drive. No need to install
anything."

What's New includes:-
"Digital video recorder vdr, technology of tomorrow for the upcoming
digital TV"

I downloaded and burnt the Live iso and it booted fine on my dual
opteron, but I couldn't find anything that related to vdr in the menus. 
Perhaps I've overlooked it.  Can anyone tell me if it's there?

Also, my PVR card wasn't auto-configured by yast, but it was detected by
the hardware detection, and also listed if you go into the TV manual
configuration section, but it wasn't obvious how to set it up - all
attempts ending with a "no package source defined" error.

Enhanced media support would be a major reason to upgrade, and would
reduce the need to boot into Windows.
