For example, I'm running SuSE 9.1 on this computer. There's the hotplug problem, which appeared as a "fix" to the original release. Then there's the KDE menu editor problem, which was in 9.0, and then fixed. If it was fixed there, why did it reappear in 9.1. Things like Kwifimanager and LISa, which simply don't work at all in 9.1 etc. The list goes on. Why so many problems in this distro?
