openSUSE 10.3 in VirtualBox
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 of YaST - i.e. a version of YaST that looked more integrated with GNOME and its interface paradigm.
When setting up this version of openSUSE, in VirtualBox's new Virtual Machine wizard I selected "openSUSE (32-bit)" as the operating system. I additionally suggest, to make your life easier, to go into the Input menu and unselect "Mouse Integration".
Back one, openSUSE 10.2: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...se-10-2-38159/
Up next, openSUSE 11.0: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...tualbox-38161/
