Hello,
This is a brand new review of SuSE Linux 8.0:
http://www.distrowatch.com/review-suse.php
It hasn't been officially published -- before I do so, I would like to consult the memebers of this mailing list as most of you have used SuSE a lot longer than I have. Anything you disagree with? Any more positive things I should mention? Any more annoyances?
All comments are welcome; credit will be given where appropriate. Thanks very much for your time to read and express your opinion.
Additional Pro: One of the major differences between SuSE and other distros is that SuSE includes the latest version of ALSA. This gives multimedia users more programs and options. A strong plus. Additional Con: SuSE 8.0 added the new hotplug system and completely overhauled the networking scripts. This has caused a big problem in configuring wireless PCMCIA cards in 8.0. I've used wireless since SuSE 7.2 but had real problems getting it work in 8.0. I've also helped many users try to get wireless working on this list, usually with success but not always. I think SuSE will have this fixed in 8.1. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Right behind you, I see the millions Got spam? Get spastic http://spastic.sourceforge.net
