I’ve recently learned about the survey started from openSUSE guys regarding the desiderata of their community based on the most prominent feature of the distro.
I’ve talked about YaST many times in the past, so check that out and take the survey !
This survey is about YaST, the default installation and administration tool for all [...]

Have you already seen this commercial ?

Now go to Ted’s blog and speak out loud your opinion on it in his comment space!
Personally i do not enjoy it, even if the premises were … promising
To say, the commercial I’ve linked waaaaaaaaaay back in an october 2005 post was much more effective and better [...]

Thanks but NO, thanks.
Read why in the final rows of Liquidat’s post of today on the subject. He has exactly expressed my suspicions.
I do not believe in their moves, and I do hope that people involved in the development of those apps will keep an eye on them …
How the old say goes ?
“keep [...]

Ted has hit again
In his latest post he talks on the subject of (Novell) accused as being proprietary. I want to avoid talking on the stupid comments he has let come in in his comment, the only thing is to admire his patience … I wouldn’t be so permissive!
Also there are some [...]

Hi to everyone! Yesterday Novell announced the world the next summer release of their “Novell Desktop” operating system aimed at the enterprise and professionals market.

Found a nice reading today browsing deep in my feeds:Red Hat vs Novell, the differences
have a Nice Read
PS = in the mean time I’m still having some major problems with my SUSE machine, yesterday night @23.30 I had 3,33GB of updates to get - via the force update if available option via YaST [...]

Finally an official comment has come from Novell PS’s [1]:
There has been a lot of debate over the last few days in the media and on message boards about what is happening regarding GNOME vs. KDE at Novell. Here’s the situation. All future enterprise-class Linux product releases, including Novell Linux Desktop, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server [...]

Recently a lot of noise has come from some articles on a famous e-zine.
Strong comments have come from our pals at Planet SuSE and on SuSE / openSUSE mailing list.
Still, like Liquidat’s have staten, one can feel a growing and bugging feeling coming on …. the “hi-market” strategy taking decisions on us users, specifically [...]

Our friends at Novell seem to strongly believe in their SUSE Linux involvement. So they’ve released two major projects:

Power @SUSE: which is the starting point for anyone willing to remove his OS-X or try SuSE on a PPC architecture.
Better Desktop: a new project on User Interface, founded on the principles of FreeDesktops.org. In this page [...]

For the people that are just approaching to the SUSE world it can be useful THIS MOVIE (you will need the Flash plugin) where our pals at Madpenguin show us the fundamental points.
Enjoy !
