there is downloadable documentation for products:
SUSE Linux 10 SUSE Linux 9.3
Almost the same thing but just different versions, the higher number version usually has newer releases of packages.
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9
Soon to be replaced with SLES 10 (this is the server distribution)
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 Package Descriptions
Descriptions for all of the distributions can be found on the website.
SUSE Linux Desktop
No such item unless you mean NLD, Novell Linux Desktop which is meant for corporate environments. Perhaps this was the attempt of a few years ago for United Linux where many companies were going to have a single linux release. The docs show as being Version 1.0 but I don't recall ever seeing such an item available.
SUSE Linux Openexchange Server
Discontinued item as far as I remember.
SUSE Linux Retail Solution 8 SSP3
Software for a retail store/solution.
Is SUSE Linus Desktop a part of Linux 9.3 or 10.0?
There is no such thing as SUSE Linux Desktop unless you mean NLD which is a separate distribution.
Does "boxed" distribution contain different documentation?
Not different docs, additional packages yes.
Perhaps if you just opened the docs and read a little you would find out what these different packages are.
It seems there are easily thousands (maybe tens of thousands) of pages in the docs listed at the link included in my original message.
A little common sense goes a long way. Or were you hoping someone else would do it for you?
Thanks anyway, but that's uncalled for.
