nervous installing after all I had read about the problems with
10.3. I just installed it on an older IBM Netvista with a P4.
The box is just stock with on board sound and video. I was surprised
to find how nicely everything worked. My son is already playing
SuperTux.
I am also happy that at least Real Player worked right away. Amarok
didn't work though so I am going to look for the threads where this
has been discussed.
Perhaps the biggest positive thing I noticed is the _MAJOR_ improvement
in the software management. I really hated how painfully slow it
was with 10.2 to just start the YaST software management. I don't
know what is going on inside but I see that on the surface it is
much better. Thanks SuSE team.

I love that Novell has included the mp3 stuff out of the box.. ( now please stop whining about that .) I haven't installed stuff to playconsidering all those discussions I have seen about this topic,
