At this stage, SuSE can NEVER be a home desktop solution. Why?
Because there is no simple control panel to chage fundamentally

settings like switching duplex of the Ethernet card on boot.
Question N� 1: How many times a day do you change switching duplex of the ethernet card on boot? Question N� 2: Where's the "simple control panel" on M$? I know of the Control Panel, but I can't say is "Simple"...
Here we go again the M$ Corp mentality if windBlows has git it then Linux is no good without it ho Hummmmmm
The reason I went with SuSE over other distro's was YAST. As much as SuSE has refined it, and even deprecated the ncurses version, it is in my experience much easier to navigate than MS's Control Panel.
Mike -- using both the good and the bad, now that's ugly. :)
And I agree that YaST is almost complete as CP, but of course, coming from M$ experiences, is different... you need some time to explore it and adapt to it... what happened when you switched cars? do you expect your new car to have the same exact functionalities in the same exact places as the old one? Then, why switch car at all? buy the same exact model as the new one... (if you can find it) and try to convince the Registration Office to keep your license plate, so you don't even have to memorize the new license. [snip] ===== Riccardo G. Facchini
