I've managed to get a working installation of 7.3, but I have a few comments on the process. 1) I like the new installer, and the animated framebuffer during startup. Very nicely done 2) The installer works ok, but I ran in to a bug. I don't know if it's repeatable. I selected upgrade, but when I got as far as having to manually select all the ximian packages I'd installed previously, I changed my mind and decided to go for a clean install instead. The installer didn't like this at all, apparently. If told me I had about 120 MB to install, the picture of the SuSE employees flashed by, it said it couldn't install either lilo or my user, and then everything crashed. When I rebooted and selected fresh install from the start, everything worked. 3) I have an nvidia geforce2. After reboot, X started without a cursor. After 3D was installed from the nvidia drivers, it came back. 4) During install, I selected not to have 3D acceleration. This installed the mesasoft drivers, but as I mentioned in another post, /usr/lib/libGL.so was broken, so when I installed the real drivers it didn't work. I had to recreate the symlink manually. 5) I tried running JFS on my first attempt at an install. When the system crashed, I got a chance to see fsck.jfs in action. Not a pretty sight. When the system boots, all file systems are in read only mode. I have a vague recollection of reading that this is meant to be A Good Thing, though I can't remember why. All other fsck:s emit a warning about 'replaying log on read only file system' and move on. I have always assumed that this meant that they did in fact write something to the 'read only' file system. fsck.jfs however did not. It just looped, trying endlessly to write, but failing with a note that the file system is read only. Those are the things I've noted up to now. Mostly, it looks like a very clean system. I like the new design of the desktop in kde, and I very much like the way kwintv installed and configured without a hitch. Perhaps I'll have more comments after some more testing. I hope not :) regards Anders
