[11-23-05 19:11]: Is the only difference between open SuSE and SUSE 10 the included apps ? Just wondering if open SuSE was worth downloading.
1. There IS NO open SuSE distribution! 2. OpenSUSE is a project, primarily to make ready the next version. 3. There is: SUSE 10 OSS, SUSE 10 Eval
We should make that a sig for this list lol.
3a. There is also SUSE Linux 10.0 box version (not downloadable) that contains more than 5 GB of software for both 32 and 64 bit on a DVD9. SUSE 10 Eval contains ~ 3.5 GB.
I've been wondering lately about the number of people wondering if they should download it. I think they should not. They should buy it and get the extra goodies. I've been buying it for quite some time and it's been worth it. It's not like it costs a lot.
4. SUSE 10 OSS is _only_ OSS software. 5. SUSE 10 Eval contains some non-OSS software 6. Either is worth downloading. 7. This HAS been explained ad nausium both here and on suse-linux-e! 8. Note: SUSE, not SuSE 9. You could have found out for yourself: http://www.opensuse.org/Download
Sadly because of money being tight I have to download it for now :( Ah well Christmas is coming and so is my Birthday (5 days away) guess what I'm asking for :) -Allen Left on purpose:
