The two BSDs that I'm familiar with, FreeBSD and OpenBSD, are very stable right out of the box.
So is SuSE
They have NEVER had the types of problems that SuSE 6.4 had and I'll bet the stable releases of Debian haven't either.
What problems are these, specifically? We can't help without some info to work on.
That's why my server OS is OpenBSD, http://www.2fortheroad.net,
Good choice!
and I'm considering switching my desktop OS.
None of the *BSDs were designed to be primarily desktop os's. But if
you're happy with that, go ahead.
