I guess so, that is why we have included it. But I am not a lawyer and laws regarding patents and restricted formats differ from country to country.

Note mentioned here applies: http://opensuse-community.org/Restricted_Formats

@Nik LTSP is for making use of lower spec hardwares as diskless thin clients.

@Manchette Most of the apps are GPL or similar, please check individual softwares’ license text for softwares included from packman repository, flash from Adobe, Sun Java etc.

Great great news to hear!! My school’s computer lab is running OpenSUSE 11.0 for two years now, and I think it’s time to upgrade to Li-f-e! I believe that’s the best way for the young people to get stuck with FOSS. Please, consider supporting older hardware. Thank you again. Nik
