Got my SUSE 10.0 box some days ago, install and stuff. Anyway the final conclusion was: - despite being much faster this suse release is so damn cripled that is feeling like 7.3 edition - the dvd disc is not bootable, used an old 9.3 to start grub - find out the Novell was loosing expensive devel time to block apps and libs from running ok, even trying to compile new libraries was much harder - mp3 decoding is way wrong - even ac3 decoding or a52lib is imposible to get even I had legal copies of dvd movies. - amarok with helix plugin is getting shity quality even with high end sound sistems - multimedia is so cripled that I am thinking for the first time in 10 years to switch to windows - multimedia support is even better in windows nt4.0 - all the studies regarding desktop usability and multimedia vs. windows are true This policy of not upseting anyone, especially Microsoft is a closer look on what software devel will be un USA. Just a big consortium of universal consense going nowhere but down. Novell, drop out the linux business, I never saw such a regress in linux development since SuSE was bought by you. I am switch back to 9.3 on all my desktops, i am not planning to implement SuSE 10 on any server. I am looking toward another Linux distro - maybe SUPER. Waiting to see if Novell is going to release some multimedia packs in YOU, like in 9.3. Bye, A not at all happy SUSE camper.
