The Corel program I really miss since upgrading beyond SuSE 8.1 is Corel Photopaint. My wife and daughter were quite fond of it. After installing SuSE9.0 I loaded it up using the same instructions I followed w/ SuSE 8.1 but Photopaint never gets past initializing (corel's version of) wine.
Because of changes in glibc 2.3.2, Wine had to be largely rewritten. Corel's version of Wine, however, is an abandoned project.
Pretty much expected that after the m$ payoff.
Maybe you could install SuSE 8.1 alongside 9.0. While installing 8.1, do not put Grub or Lilo in the MBR then, so you keep using 9.0's Grub, in which you add an entry for 8.1.
Even though I've got about 5 os's on this machine I really hate to reboot just to use a single app, I pretty much get by w/ win4lin if I need something not available in linux.
Looks like the best place for questions about Photopaint for Linux would be the newsgroup. News server: cnews.corel.com
