Kadmos OCR only in suse 10.1, not in opensuse?
 
Hi,

The site of Novell at novell.com/products/linuxpackages/suselinux/kdegraphics3-scan.html
reveals that: "The SUSE version of Kooka is linked with KADMOS, a commercial ICR/OCR library that gives best detection results for different languages. As an open source alternative, the OCR command line tool gocr is also supported."

In opensuse 10.1, I only find gocr and ocrad, not kadmos (it is ghosted in the preferences of kooka). So this is a surplus in the commercial version (or only in SLED? -- who has experience?) I've never heard of it in the linux forums before reading the link above.

Are there still other somewhat hidden differences?

KADMOS, a commercial ICR/OCR library

What part of, commercial version that you have to PAY FOR, isnt making sense?

It makes sense that you have to pay for commercial add-ons. But what I am missing is a good comparison chart of ALL major and also important minor differences between the boxed suse 10.1, opensuse 10.1 and sled 10. There would be less confusion.
