| Comments | Good luck trying to download (only available via direct FTP to install). Install (from purchased CDs) went less than smoothly; although, once installed, the desktop looked nice. Distribution clamed that it didn't have support for SMB and FAT (there goes Windows compatibility). Suse was recently purchased by Novell. | Explain Comments |
