Yesterday I upgraded my office workstation from 8.0 to 8.1 and it went very smooth. I just replaced Mozilla after then upgrade and all is well.
I however did a fresh install of 8.1 lastnight at home. The keramik and liquid window decorations still don't work and they are installed. And I was bouncing around in YaST2 lastnight checking out the new stuff and when I was looking at the timezone module the machine froze tight. I guess it's an X issue..but I can't find any error in the logs for any problem. It's quite disheartening. *shrug* Guess all these intuitive GUI enhancements are quickly bringing Linux into the realm of Windows stability. *shrug*
Ben, I hope you are kidding about the *shrug*. I don't accept that Linux is destined to become as bloated and unstable as Windows. Hard freezes in Windows are one of the reasons I started using Linux to begin with. If fast upgrade cycles and feature happy projects create a mess, I'll walk away from it. I think for the first time since SuSE 6.2, I'll wait on upgrading my SuSE version for a while. I'm seriously bummed. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Sing blue silver Got spam?
