SuSE CEO's Two-Distro World

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the just-the-two-of-em dept.

FrankoBoy writes "CRN has an interview with SuSE CEO Richard Seibt in which he claims such things as 'Linux means two companies: Red Hat and SuSE, and nobody else.' Another example of this kind of corporatespeak can be found in another interview he did with ZDNet last week. DistroWatch has an article about all this in its current weekly newsletter."

  1. I use Slackware. by dtfinch · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I've had problems trying to run Redhat on anything low end, mostly hardware incompatibilities, but also unexplainably long pauses without any disk activity.

    So I use Slackware. No problems yet and great low end hardware support. Easy to administer too.

    I haven't used linux long enough to say my opinion matters though.
