My experience with Suse:
Suse 10.1: unable to connect to internet, so unable to use it; bought version from Novell.
Suse 10.3: connection to the internet very easily, with only one setting, so installed on my computer; douwnloaded version from your site.
Suse 11.0: tried yesterday, unable to conect to internet, so unusuable for me, so kindly please review the networking section of 11.0
Chipset nVidia on my computer and Speedtouch DSL between the network chip and the phone line.
I appreciate your work.

Do you think Microsoft maybe worried? Because one advantage they had was the look and feel. Now that they just lost the advantage, how will this play out?

Ok, I haven’t seen OpenSuSE 11 yet, but am going to be looking at it as it gets closer to releas. I have one request. While I was running Windows, I had roaming profiles. My profile sat on my server, I logged on and it was copied down. Logged off, it was copied up. Go to a different pc, and the same profile would came down.

I am now all Novell, with one TrixBox phone server. I run 4 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server’s (Dual Proc PIII 1Ghz machines) and 9 work stations. Using LDAP for my Authentication.

I have played with trying to setup Linux Clients (openSuSE) to Auth against a SLES PDC, but it never works. When is the OpenSuSE/Novell team going to give us some form of Roaming Profiles. And NFS mount isnt an option. Constant writing to the profiles would bring my 100Mb network to its knees.

This is my only Begging Request. Some from of Roaming Profiles. Even a command such as the following that could be saved in LDAP for the OpenSuSE clients to run…
scp %U@server:/homedir/U% /home/%U

I dont know how to tell the clients to look for that and execute or else I would have done it already. And getting it added to YAST2 inside the user mod would be a great Idea.

I have used SuSE since 6.4 as a End User, and SLES since 9.0. Love the products and the work you guys put into it. Keep up the great work and continue working towards bring linux to the CORP Desktop.

openSuse 11 will ROCK. New installer theme looks really cool and puts Bimbows Vista to shame. Just improve the widget look&feel some more. I mean buttons and Tab pages,…

Maybe it would be cool if you could use Oxygen style widgets in YaST (at install time)?

Keep on the good work, I use Suse since 9.2, trying out practically all subsequent releases since than, and all openSuse releases.

openSuse rules, I really put on every computer I can get my hands on.

I remember, pepole questioning me, why suse doenst has good looks ? And I used to reply like suse is all about inner beauty rather than external ..

Well this kind of new looks rather going to change the questions of the people and I may have to find answers to the new questions now.. :)

Great going suse .. its really great.. :)

Can someone point me in the direction of where to post bug re: this release? I’ve got some odd ones, and it would be a shame to have em go unfixed…..
