openSUSE 10.3 was released October 4, 2007.
This release included several changes to the desktops. Xfce was first included with the distribution, providing a lightweight alternative to KDE and GNOME. As well, a technical preview of KDE 4 was included. While some of the graphics look neat, KDE 4.0 at the time of openSUSE 10.3's release was most certainly incomplete and in an unusable state. The biggest improvement in GNOME besides some theming tweaks was the inclusion of a GtK version...

openSUSE 10.2 was released on December 7, 2006. The SUSE Linux distribution was renamed to openSUSE with this version. Of note as well, the Novell-Microsoft deal that was intended to protect SUSE Linux users should the SCO lawsuits have gone south was signed the month before, and drove many in the FOSS community away and/or against anything related to Novell or SUSE (what "cancelled" looked like before Twitter).
Both desktops saw new custom application menus that were a customization...

SUSE Linux 10.1 was released May 11, 2006. This version of SUSE Linux was the basis for SUSE Linux Enterprise 10. SUSE Linux 10.1 is also unique in that the openSUSE project released a re-mastered version of the install media that included all updates released since the initial 10.1 release.
KDE was upgraded to version 3.5, which would be its final version upgrade for a few years until KDE 4 shocked the world. GNOME saw significant changes to its interface, with the default layout again...

SUSE Linux 10.0 was released October 6, 2005. Most notable about this release is that it is the first one to have been developed and released by the openSUSE Project, which still develops the distribution to this day.
Prior versions of SUSE Linux were sold in boxed packages, with ISO images generally posted online some time after the release of SUSE Linux to sales. Following Red Hat's lead with the Fedora Project, Novell opened the development to community involvement in 2005 and established...

SUSE Linux 9.3 was released April 15, 2005.
SUSE Linux 9.3's installation gained the ability to detect and automatically add GRUB boot for Linux installations on other partitions of the same system. KDE and GNOME both saw version bumps, and the former and YaST saw a new, crisper theme based on KDE's Plastik theme but with customization from SUSE. This release also was the first to include OpenOffice.org 2, which saw a large overhaul of the interface of OpenOffice.org and the adoption...
