I scrapped 10.2 in less than a week. However, no need to switch to Windows. While you wait for suse to straighten out, I can tell you at least the following work great: mepis, kubuntu, mandriva, fedora.
It's been a while but I did try Mandriva/Mandrake before I settled on SuSE. I can't say just exactly why but I didn't like it very much. I tried a live CD of a "special" Ubuntu release and it seemed ok, but it wasn't "Kubuntu". Fedora I've never messed with at all. SimplyMEPIS was what re-ignited my thoughts of using Linux. That was somewhere back about version 3 something. I liked it, but ................ Right now I have about 94% of 6.0* downloaded, but all I could find was a i386 download. Not to sure how that is going to work out. On the web site they talk about an x86-64 version but I didn't see it on a mirror. Only time will tell. PCLinux seems like another fair-to-middlin release. I didn't play with it very long but it seemed to work just fine. There's a local computer store that recommends it for Microsofties, that want something better, to start out with. They preload it on some of their systems. Walk in, walk out with a preloded Linux box. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
