Whoever in SuSE / Novell that had the bright idea of making this change without warning us at the beginning of the installation process should be nailed to a wall with a hawthorn stake through his heart. Or at least made to work in Windows for the next 12 months as penance.
This is exactly the kind of lack of quality I was worried about when I asked for a show of hands regarding 9.1 a while back. Sure it can be fixed, even with minimal effort. But what it means is - SuSE never tested this. And that is worrying, 'coz which other bits weren't tested?
Would that be a "lack of quality" or just a design change they didn't mention? The new kernel supports 4 billion users, instead of the 64 thousand, as in the earlier kernels. Maybe they just decided to move the users up a bit, to make room for more system users.
I'll agree here. This type of design change *SHOULD* be documented in a prominent manner, though. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA3ty1jeziQOokQnARAsMbAKCqsz6rrevWFMrXjip+stBROjWDxACgrQpU fNGbxsfPwuwGhVY8UU+hFcA= =XVwY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
