Sad to admit this as I like openSUSE, but among the list of features
that openSUSE users would like to see on next releases, I bet is a
better, nicer and cleaner session-manager/pre-login screen.

I am not so skilled on this matter, but for example, latest Ubuntu 9.04,
which I have installed as guest machine onto my oS 11.1, looks a lot
much better than openSUSE!
