I have got quite a decent set of hardware. I can let you know the specs if needed. Regarding the x server dying and not wanting to come up and no possible solution in sight apart from reinstalling it, I decided to move away from openSuse. BTW, this problem started after I installed some updates which were pushed out yesterday and since then it started to complain about drivers for mouse, my graphics card etc. It used to work fine before that.

After persevering with you for such a long time, I think it is time to let go and move on to better world of Mandriva or Ubuntu.
I've tried ubuntu, and it's OK, but I'm still primarily a suse user, on the desktop and in the data center. mandriva, well last I looked at it, it struck me as cute, but flaky. YMMV though.
A few problems I have encountered on the way and have not found any solution for those. My X server dying was the last straw.
That "last straw" thing sounds a bit melodramatic. Oddly enough, I don't recognize your email address at all, perhaps you posted questions under a different account? In any case, problems are universal, given the combination of flaky hardware and beta software that is usually the lot of those on the bleeding edge. I don't know what to suggest, other than get good hardware, and use only mature distros - perhaps SLED would have been a better choice for you, but if not, have fun with ubuntu or whatever.
Good luck to the opensuse team and anyone else who uses it.
Good luck to you! Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
