couldnt agree more. I dont even mind buying directly from suse *providing* the
release is
*stable* which btw 6 dosent seem to be [in my observation]

couldnt said it better myself
Frankly Im disapointed with the problems Im reading about here. It seems to me that
even the simpliest things have gone awry... Yea.... I understand the big deal with
the lib change but I just think those things should have been worked out BEFORE the
damm thing was realeased
IOW- Id like to equate suse with *stability & ease of use* not quick releases or
popularity
Im happily staying with 5.3 for now [and checking out other things]
