I think SuSE has the problem that is uses a patched (enhanced) kernel with
IPSEC etc. enabled that make it more complicated than necessary. There are
distributions like debian who keep things simple and that came up with a
recent kernel a long time ago.

Using debian, you can update your system with two command (apt-get update /
apt-get upgrade) -- never seen that working on a SuSE-machine. Makes
administration easy and reduces TOC.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
