I apologize for my initial rant, and wish I would have said what I said but in a more civil way. It was an expression of many years of frustration, but as you can see I am indeed trying to help as much as I can. It appears that some of the multimedia bugs that have been plaguing openSuse and Linux in general, while discussed sometimes endlessly on the internet, may not have been reported to you. Either that or I am searching for bugs incorrectly. So what I'm doing now is trying to report any bug I find that is a show stopper for the adoption of openSuse. These are mostly multimedia related, and I just filed another bug (240102) on a long standing SPDIF issue that doesn't appear to have ever been reported, although you can literally find years of discussion about it via Google. I could be wrong, and let me know if I am filing duplicate bugs, but that's what it looks like so far. And by the way, I and many others are absolutely desperate to adopt Linux. I started seriously trying again with openSuse 10.1, and have already spent $200.00 on VMWare Workstation for Linux in hopes I could migrate to it. I will not only buy openSuse when I can use it as my primary desktop, but I will also donate another $50.00 to openSuse, and I'm sure many others would follow. Look, we only have two other choices, Windows Vista, which is expensive and bloated and intrusive, or Apple which is even worse. Linux has been so close, for so long, that some of us just find it a mystery as to why it still doesn't work completely. But perhaps as I said before, we have done too much complaining and not enough helping. I have also been surprised by how quickly openSuse responds to bug reports, and how interested you seem to be in fixing them as quickly as possible. This is the primary reason I'm spending so much of my time exclusively with openSuse. I'm trying to at least make sure you have some idea of what the average user is running into, and giving you the most detailed information about it that I can. Please let me know if you need any other help. I have a fairly standard NVidia based system and will help in whatever way I can. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
