I have been using SuSe since 5.* and 11.3 is great. Works like a charm. Have one suggestion to make it better. Install synaptic for package management. Synaptic is the GUI fot apt-get. Synaptic is the default for debian to manage *.deb packages but it can be used to manage rpm packages as in pclinuxos 2010. Works fine in pclinuxos. As an example, tried to install "partitionmanager" which is part of KDE. In synaptic, all you have to do on the cl is:
# apt-get update # apt-get install partitionmanager and it is installed with all the depedencies.
did you try zypper? zypper in partionmanager does exactly what you describe above, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
