A couple more things: CD stuff is much improved in 9.1: CD burning works better than in Windows and Real Player works great as does CD playing. Both simpler than with XP. Big improvements with media though DVD needs the libs of course. On the negative (besides the dual boot problem) is Evolution version also my Epson stylus photo RX500 only works with epson 700 selected, no other selection would work in YAST: strange as you would think the generic epson stylus would work. The negatives worked all in 9.0. Also my boot time is slower in 9.1. That is OK as I leave my box on now and power management is improved. All programs are much faster. I replaced my mouse (was jerking around) with an optical one and its now awesomely precise. SuSE 9.1 is great and should get folks like me off of Windows. Only thing to do now is to get Alsa Modular synth setup so I can have more fun.
