As an openSUSE user from 6.4 to 10.3 and now with 11.3 I prefer "Have a lot fun" than "A Novell business" - yes, for a time it was also on the logo.
interesting, u should be the only openSUSE user since 6.4 because that version never existed.
Yeah he was talking about SUSE 6.4 that existed
there was never "Have a lot of fun" in the logo and "A Novell business" also only on to boxes it was written under the logo, but that means not it is included in the logo.
Also as SUSE there was under the logo not only on to the boxes,take a better look here (http://pcforum.hu/site.pc/text/quicknews/12264/suse-a-novell-business.jpg)
including more then openSUSE in the logo makes no sense no company includes a slogan in her logo.
and btw ur slogan isnt "Have a lot of fun"
He didn't said that our slogan is "Have a lot of fun" ,he said that he prefer this better than "A Novell business", but either way his mistake is that here we are talking about openSUSE and not SUSE and no I am not a lawyer I am a Seasonal firefighter (my real job)but there is no need to be so ironic,this is not the reason we are here for...

I still get nervous when I hear Ubuntu's "linux for human beings" and I think "Linux for the masses" or Fedora's "Fedora fails… and that’s a good thing!" and I think "oh yes?for whom?", I first heard this after trying to install Fedora 64 bit for a whole afternoon and failed because of a bug or something that existed for my processor. I believe you get my point ;-) Kostas

: Well, German is easy: "Habt viel Spaß!" If you say it to somebody you know and you can you (german "Du") and "Haben Sie viel Spaß" if you... well that´s not easy to explain in English. On French it will be much difference than the English, I agree. My French is not so good, so I don´t can´t say what´s in French :(

And (I forget) how would you deal with the i18n of this thing
It's pretty impossible to get the same sense in french in a so short sentence. I'm pretty sure it's the same for German, what about the right to left language should we flip the geeko and those written top to bottom.
Anyway for my opinion, the logo and just the mark is just good .

I can easily make people very angry, when they are in trouble, and you spread "wrong message".
Imagine people blocked by a strike, and the slogan is "With our compagny you're on time" etc...

Yes and no.
I'm very sensitive to text, and hate having text on absolutely everything - I'm always compelled to read it. openSUSE I start to see as a graphic, but reading 'have a lot of fun' all the time, I'd be compelled to change my wallpaper.
Simple=good. IMHO.
I'd prefer to see 'have a lot of fun' jotted in casual typeface, like grafiti across at an angle below the logo, and only used in some cases. (eg merchandise, optional wallpaper).
interesting idea though, to make the slogan more well known is worthwhile.
