I'm new on this group and I've used Suse 6.3 for a couple of months now and I like it. It seems better than Redhat 6.1. I'm in charge of 3 installations using SuSe 6.3 and 9 using Redhat Mandrake 6.5. I've been told by some individuals that Redhat is the standard and to stick with it because they have more updates and etc. I am a bit confused because I needed 'cdrecord' and Redhat didn;t have it on the Box set and SuSe seems to have everything including Gnome and KDE. I have a hired gun that wants to change all if my installs to Redhat Original 6.1 because he states that he can hook up a LAN between the windows box to the Linux box with Redhat and Not SuSE. In most of these places where Linux is in use they like it but they like but they use windows too so I was trying to get some ideas about how they can have both. I was told if I get a LAN connected these businesses could do their Digital Camera and Scanners stuff in Windows and I could copy and store the files in Windows and cp them over If I ever need them. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ahead, Dave Willcox :-) PS. Is it very hard to install and compile a recent downloaded version of 'cdrecord' to Linux? This is one of the reasons this guy wants to change things. He claims he knows how to do this and it's worth a lot. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
