I'm normally all over a new distro by now but I just got my T61p laptop working properly with Suse 10.3 (video drivers for nvidia that work with suspend resume were hard to find). I've trolled through the enhancements etc and just can't find any compelling reason to think that laptop support has improved in 11.0. Indeed there seem to be lots of people complaining about knetworkmanager, and no one raves about its bluetooth support. These are not the sort of things you can test in a VM... so what say you? What are the absolutely great things about 11.0? wcn
From my point of view Zypper & YaST were miles better than 10.3 (although Smart is having all kinds of problems but with the others fixed this isn't really a problem), BT works fine for me whereas I had issues with it before. There's a few little niggles here and there with it but none of them showstoppers and usually easy to work around. There are still issues with apps just dying for no obvious reason, the OS is solid but there's still a long way to go, I don't think this is Suse specific, more of a Linux-wide issue. So unless you have issues with 10.3 I'd hang onto it for now, give 11 time to mature a bit. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
