The most annoying thing is that after any given install, Yast has to run the SuseConfig.* scripts, updating every single setting for every single app/service on my system, including those which have *absolutely nothing* to do with what i just installed. e.g. if i install a game, the Latex and Apache SuseConfig scripts are run.
As a small comment, on the opensuse-factory list there is work going on right now to remove if not all then at least most SuSEconfig scripts, placing the functionality closer to where it needs to be. So this particular problem should be in the process of being addressed. Perhaps your mail should also be sent to opensuse-factory@opensuse.org As a short summing up, your complaints about suse as compared with kubuntu are - Documentation - Software Management - Drivers I can't comment on the documentation, because to be honest, I've never read it. The software management has been done to death, everyone knows the current state of it, and it's being worked on very actively, I don't think anything more can be usefully added, except bug reporting for new issues Which leaves the drivers: you have the closed source kernel modules, which Ubuntu can't ship anymore than SUSE can, if they want to avoid a lawsuit. But if there is an open source module that isn't being included for some reason, could you point me to it? If you don't want to do it yourself, I can open a bug report to get it included
