You have a problem with Brits We invented the language Don't blame us if you can't speak it proper like wot we duz Just wait till they outsource to Bangalore Then see how hard it is to have a coherent conversation

P.S. It's "their" not "thier", but I'll let you off, as you avoided my pet peeve of "your" instead of the correct "you're".

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I have opened a dialog with Novell and will keep everyone posted.

i just got the SuSE 9.0 pro pack, and i love it, i am a linux newbie and I found it easy to install, and it has many programs etc. im not into all that webmin and server stuff. but in all, I find SuSE to be a very good distro for linux clients.

Unhappy SuSE forum

I totally agree with you. SuSe is one of the major distribuitions in Europe. We should have our own forum here.

I'm afraid it doesn't matter how much people say that, it will NOT happen without Suse's cooperation.

Im a bit of a newbie to linux and have to say after working with redhat, mandrake and suse ive gotta say i prefer the suse distro Ive found it a lot easier to learn with and much better to navigate with The yast program i also found super helpful Below is a poll from linux format magazine stating the results of most popular distros Suse comes second ahead of redhat and behind mandrake. As a total newbie to this site i was shocked to see that suse doesnt get its own forum. Partially because i came on for some suse related help!
