First to say, that I am a SuSE user since several Years, because for me it is best....... but.... I was very unhappy installing version 6.1! After upgrading from version 6.0 lots of things on my machine do not work anymore: - Apache is not coming up after reboot. - MySQL too - MySQL-Perl modules vanished and I had to reinstall by hand - ISDN is not working anymore, because they forgot to add the masquerading kernel modules If You look at there bugfixsite http://www.suse.de/patches/61_update.html this did not wonder me anymore. Hey guys, SuSE is good, but is it best? Do I have the time and money to download about 10Megs of bugfixes and get a not working internethost after upgrading? I think we all should think about how fast and often an upgrade-version should be issued. I know, the development of free software lives from early publishing software and its code, but if I buy a Linux distribution, my system should stay stable after (down-) up-grading.
