first off all job welldone for this article.
But (and the big but…)
opensuse is great for simple end user who wants
to surf the web, send email, and maybe hear some
music, and maybe draw a picture..
HAVE you ever tried to install a package from SOURCE
in OpenSuse(does any one there thought about make,make install etc…). If you just want a little program does not come with RPM…
My God, I like my xUbuntu, and debain.
i love apt-get, i love make and make install
and I don’t like at all that someone like REDHAT, and openSUSE, and Novell or what so ever TO TELL ME WHAT I CAN USE OR NOT.. THEY JUST BECOME A CLONE OF MICROSOFT!!!

“All I can say is that if Ubuntu sucks that bad, why is Microsoft trying hard to copy it? Win7 looks almost exactly like Ubuntu. In fact: Microsoft is going to release a blatant copy of Ubuntu for its’ Netbook edition of Win7 in the near future if they haven’t already. ”

Haha, my thoughts exactly! I don’t know, ubuntu isn’t that bad. thanks for the article.

“yast seems half baked piece of crap compared to synaptic”

You obviously don’t know what YAST is if you are comparing it to a package manager front-end.

Can you:

manage users
configure Apache, Samba, Kerboros, mail servers etc
configure your hardware including printers
setup and configure your firewall and AppArmor
tweak your boot loader
setup apps to run in varying runlevels

in Synaptic?

No?

Well, don’t you feel stupid.

FYI: Windows will not play hardly any type of media out of the box including MP3 and DVD.

Don’t believe me? Install a retail version of Windows.

Just because Dell, HP, Toshiba, etc add in those codecs doesn’t mean Windows offers out of the box codec support.

And OpenSUSE is about 5 years ahead of Ubuntu. Ubuntu gives the illusion of simplicity, by taking control out of your hands. OpenSUSE gives back that control AND keeps things simple.

I persoanlly have tried both suse and ubuntu and other distros. I have found both ubuntua and suse dissappointing suse = slow and too much emphasis on fancy graphics (designed to please nob heads) and yast seems half baked piece of crap compared to synaptic.
Ubuntu is crap all over though quicker (and even buggier than suse). I cant help thinking that a lot of the problems are to do with the fact that they are kde and gnome (both crap) Perhaps it would be better if everyone stated to try using a decent desktop enviroment instead like xfce or open box or jwm or something else that doesnt have so much shit built in and some thing which doesnt try (pretend?) to support dependencies for people who cant be bothered to write complete programs properly. Seriously when you have to have a different graphical modem dialers for different desktops you KNOW something is wrong (KPPP vs GnomePPP) After all these are just simple programs which just molest the modem control (wvdial) Kmail and evilotion are other sad cases in point along with Kwallet and gnome keyring (spastic crap) Better of with out this dependencies crap altogether then people wont keep finding their software going wrong when something else on the same computer gets altered/removed or updated as each program will then simply stop leaning on each others shoulders (when one falls the lot falls)

I am very disappointed with the new Ubuntu….looks like utter crap…i dont have the time nor patience to go through the whole new design again…cant even find advanced features…..really looks like a system for retards.

Im off to exploring SUSE now…im tiered of linux communities that dont get enough funding…..poor guys wasting theyre time…i prefer to stick with pros who get paid to make a quality distrobution…..

I am an exchange student and study in one of famous universities in Spain. Last year, I obtain this precious opportunity while I was so excited and also worried about my Spanish language ability. Since I use the Rosetta stone language learning software, I started to search the fast and best way to master Spanish.

One of the first linux distros I tried out was Suse 9.0. I have Ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook, and it runs fine for that. Have OpenSuse 11.3 on my desktop, and it runs on that fairly well, also.

Between the two, however, there are notable differences. With Ubuntu, finding packages to add is a fairly straightforward thing. Any dependencies, are immediately identified and resolved during installation. Sometimes a package runs sluggishly, but at least it DOES run, most of the time.

OpenSuse, on the other hand, STILL has not adequately resolved the “dependency hell” that marked it’s prior releases. Attempting to install an application is an exercise in irritation…..”it says it’s installed, but WHERE?!” “Why in the hell is it NOT in the applications menu??!” “I followed the instructions given, and it STILL doesn’t show up??!” Invariably, finding what I installed has typically involved logging in as root, and going on a scavenger hunt, directory by directory, until I find the blasted thing, and then I occasionally turn up multiple copies. I admit, I’m not well versed in using linux, but I can see no benefit in making the process of learning so damn difficult.

Until OpenSuse gets this issue (and it IS an issue) properly resolved, their otherwise polished distro will suffer user attrition. It seems like such a minor thing, but a mountain of minor things makes for one great big headache, as far as I am concerned, and I have neither time, nor inclination, to endure a self inflicted migraine. OpenSuse is clearly NOT my first distro of choice.

I’d try openSuse, but until now it’s just so slow. Maybe it’s just KDE. Think I’ll stick to Linux Mint (distrowatch Nr 3!). Just a touch better than Ubuntu: Media… it just works…

downloaded and burnt ubuntu and kubuntu 10.04 32 and 64 bit. I cannot boot from the cd as the screen goes black probably due to broken nvidia drivers. went to the ubuntu forum they say u have to do this and that.
i have a ubuntu 8.10 so installed it but cannot connect wired network as the network manager cannot save the subnetmask properly. canonical releases ubuntu on the schedule dates not caring much how buggy their releases are. apart from software availability, ubuntu is not a match for windows. perhaps i need a stable and less buggy distro. now im considering debian and suse enterprise desktop.

Hi there! I don’t usually ask this kind of stuff, but I find myself in a situation. All I do is on a laptop, and I already have W7 on it, I don’t wanna lose it bacause I realy need it for now, but I like the idea of switching to linux, for good maybe, one day. I’ve installed ubuntu, different partition etc.., but have some problems with the video drivers, being a notebook stuff, that occured when I’ve made the automatic update of ubuntu from 9.04 I think to the new one. I understand that after an update like that I lose the video drivers and have to install them manually. I want to start from scratch with a new instalation of linux. Anyway, my question is: What will it be better for me? Ubuntu 10.04, or OpenSuse 11.3? or maybe another :S
PS: I like the ideea of cool silly video effects (3D desktop etc), and the tools provided in the other Ubuntu, the Studio version. I use a lot of multimedia software, audio, video and photo editing, and offcourse I will try to run some windows based games.
Cheers
