hello, i've been using redhat linux for like two years...since 6.2 to 7.3. i'm a big kde fan and actually dislike gnome. redhat is very biased to gnome and i just heard that suse is geared towards kde, hence my interest in the change. i have a few questions before i make my decision: 1) where can i see a list of all the packages included in the suse 8.1 distrobution? 2) is there automatic update system like redhat's up2date? 3) how configurable is the installation process? i kinda like to very carefully pick and choose what gets installed and then compile kde from source. 4) what boot loader does it use? grub i hope...=) 5) where can i get more detailed info about suse? where can i find out info and comparisons about/between all the major distros? 6) cups the main print system? thanks, christopher (maybe soon to be suse user...=)
