SuSE Linux Desktop 1.0 Reviewed

Posted by timothy on from the screenshots-o-plenty dept.

LinuxLasVegas writes "SuSE announced a new release today titled "SuSE Linux Desktop 1.0". The distro is built on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8.x technology and comes with Crossover Office 2.0. Mad Penguin has the first review of this release. From what I read, it seems like a good release, but for the $600 price tag, I'm not sure if it would be worth the jump..."

  1. I need help [Completely OT] by J.D.+Hogg · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm doing a little art project that involves getting as much spam as I can to a spam hole on yahoomail. I'm looking to get as much 419 nigerian scams, mlm scams, penis enlargement, chain-letters, investments ... mails as possible. I've tried to d/l some of the latest spams received by the spam archive (http://www.spamarchive.prg/) and answering it to hook the spammers, but I don't seem to get any, and half of those reply-to addresses are deprecated already. The junk mail filter in my dummy yahoomail account is turned off, but still nothing comes through.

    So, if some of you get a lot of spam, could you please respond to a few in my yahoomail's account name to start the syphon ? the address is :

    internetnoise@yahoo.com

    If you do help me, please don't sign-me up for free newsletters, or horoscopes or things like that : these aren't true spam/scams and I'd like to receive only those.

    I'm not trolling by the way, and I know this is OT, but I figured posting something on /. was the best way to jump-start that spam flood I need.

    BTW : the above is really my account. If you send a mail to it, I'll respond immediately.

  2. Suse Version 1.0? by Space+Coyote · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    What's the deal with version 1.0? Did they wrap around the data type holder with their constant version upgrades and have to wrap around?

    is this about that 80 lines in the source thing? if so, wouldn't it be just possible to go in an re-write thoughs 80 lines? you know, say the same thing in a different way? ie: Hello = Hi

    You are confusing me with someone who cares.
  4. What about UnitedLinux? by rjamestaylor · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    Why is SuSE still partnering with SCO? Why would I want to give them $600 while they're partnering with SCO?

    It's not an irrelevant question. There statement of May 15 is not enough.
