I've been watching this list very intently since my tribulation with 11.2 / KDE. It seems like 11.2 is more problem prone than 11.1 Yes, I know 11.1 has been out longer - BUT - I got 11.1 about the time in the life cycle as 11.2 and it seems to have much more bugs and quirks than 11.1 True ? False, I use 11.2 every single day, 5 - 6 days a week 6 - 10 hours a day. 11.2 is stable, reliable, and efficient; it is a significant improvement over 11.1. Even suspend/resume works flawlessly. Before I go blowing my stack over that statement -
Go ahead, blow. I'm a satisfied customer, and have satisfied users. One just said to me the other day: "I enjoy LINUX on the desktop more and more every day." That's a direct quote.
was your install of 11.2 - the base install with - NO INITIAL - upgrades.
Of course no, not performing updates is just stupid.
Or did you have to make any upgrades - if so, then that is my point.
zypper up. And I did a one-click install of the recent MonoDevelop and Banshee. One-click installs are easy, and those two applications are FANTASTIC!
I don't have the time to install 11.2 and spend countless hours figuring what I need to upgrade.
Neither do I - I use openSUSE in a professional environment. I have to get WORK done. And openSUSE is great for that: install [yes, update], do WORK. Simple.
AND, YES, the base install of 11.1 - NO initial upgrade - WAS - pretty darn stable.
Sure. Suspend/Resume was flaky. Mono was leaky. Evolution was less awesome. F-Spot was buggy. Sound was occasionally crunchy. One 11.2 - awesome all around. -- Adam Tauno Williams <awilliam@whitemice.org> LPIC-1, Novell CLA <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com> OpenGroupware, Cyrus IMAPd, Postfix, OpenLDAP, Samba -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
