[olug] Suse 9.0 pro

Thu Nov 20 15:09:47 UTC 2003

Please keep the list posted on what you find out with using the latest SUSE.

Is the Eval RC1 the same as the release code in Pro?
What size of systems do you have it installed on?
Is it detecting new NIC cards and Video cards?
Does it include MP3 support?
Does it include Java?

Have you considered Fedora for a home system in place of the current Red
Hat?

I just got SuSe 9.0 Pro also and I really liked it too.  On our work
network, I was able to pull up 20-30 machines, win2k, in a fairly quick
time.  Install took longer than Red Hat but it looks nice, runs clean.  I AM
just starting to play with it though.  Anyone know what the license reads on
installing 1 copy of this to multiple machines?  I want to remove Red Hat
from my home system and install this copy of SuSe to it but I want to but
legal, if you know what I mean.  8) I am having problems with something,
adding another printer to the system.  It wants a password....Root does not
work, nor does any of the 2 other accounts.  Any ideas? Thanx!!

Just wanted to mention that I got a copy of Suse 9.0 pro, and so far I'm
pretty impressed with it.  I've been playing with it (installation was
fairly easy), and it seems to be pretty complete.  I was even able to use
iManager (Novell administration tool) with Mozilla with it.

The smb shares access seems to be dog slow though.  Anyone have any ideas
why that might be?  (Takes minutes to connect, authenticate, etc)

I may just make it the default OS on my home machine.
