A Closer Look at SUSE 10

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the long-way-from-netware dept.

SilentBob4 writes to tell us that MadPenguin is running a review of the recently released SUSE 10.0. From the review: "Novell has made some interesting changes in distribution and development since our last review of SUSE Linux. Many say it's for the better and I'd say I'm inclined to go with that theory. To tell you the truth, I never thought I'd see the day SUSE opened up it's doors to the community to help expand and concert development efforts, but here we are in a world where SUSE is open and still making geeks sweat every time a new release comes out"

    ...but here we are in a world where SUSE is open and still making geeks sweat every time a new release comes out

    I'm fairly certain the geeks would still be sweating regardless of whether a new version of SuSE came out...

    And totally unrelated, how cool would it have been if Digital Research had owned SuSE at one point? I would have loved to have a machine running DR-SuSE sitting around the office.

    The thought of making "sweaty geeks" is really kind of gross! I mean, bathing already takes too much time away from reading /. and playing games and coding.... What we need is an open source air freshener...

    My friends want to get married. They have read about it but have no experience with women.
    Which would you recommend for people like them?
    Redheads? Brunettes? Blondes?

    Your opinion is much appreciated. Thanks !

    At present, if she prints to the HP LJ4 she gets the square of the number of copies she requests
    The workaround is easy: request the square root of the number of copies that she actually needs.
    For example, if she wants 5 copies, she should request 2.2360679775 copies.
    Simple, no?

    I installed this, now how do I access the bindery?

    I'm a CNE, so if you tell me where the bindery is I should be ok.
