I would like to share these comments sent to me from a friend. They are NOT my comments I am merely quoting them. They are from a guy who uses Linux in many formats and is far more accomplished than I am. "I sat last night looking through it and on the one hand is F$%&!# pants it tells you nothing about the apps!!! However if you're new to Linux its very very good it gives you a no nonsense walkthrough the install and initial set up process. There is a Virtual machine thingy in yast but no reference to it in the manual I clicked on it but it said I had to be running the Xen kernel which seems stupid unless you can run two kernels concurrently??? also something called amorapps or something but again info in the manual is thin on the ground. The discs come in a cardboard box not the nice plastic ones for 9.2/3 so I chucked out the 9.2 discs this morning and stuck the v10 discs in. Registering is a F&$%£ nightmare I had to ring Novell and get the guy to do it his end, sure you can supposedly migrate you're account but thats not true so don't waste you're time you have to create a Novell account stage 1 is OK but you wont get past stage 2 as it expects a pay-for support account as you cant stick any details in it just sits there. Having said that you can log-in and out so it works, sort of." So, now, again, I feel that this is a backward step. Those comments are from somebody who rarely needs any hand holding while installing. Please, SuSE Novell, listen to these comments and restore the printed manuals and plastic disk box for the next release. They may not be much but they certainly add that little touch to the professionalism of the distro'. Please don't go down the Microsoft road of thinner and thinner manuals - remember, they started off with very good manuals, until eventually all you get is a thin pamphlet. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Take care.
